Answer:

374mm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Bottom rectangle can be cut off to equal 52mm, by multipling 4 by 13

the rest is 14*23, which equals 322mm

add those together to get 374mm squared

Answer:

374 square millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can split the shape into 2 rectangles.

This will give us a rectangle with a width of 13 and 10.

Let's work out 1 rectangle at a time.

Area of a rectangle=Width times by legth

13*18=234- This is the area of 1 of the rectangles.

10*14=140- This is the area of the second rectangle

Now we add the areas together to get 374 square millimeters, which is the area of this figure.

We need to use 60 yards of fencing to enclose a rectangular shaped garden the length is 30 yards less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the garden.

Answers

Answer:

W = 16 2/3 yards

L = 3 1/3 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle will consist of two sides with length L, and two more sides with length W.  Area will be W*L.

We are told that L is 30 yards less than 2W:

L = 2W - 30

We also learn that we have 60 yards of fencing for the perimeter, which is 2L + 2W.

Therefore, we can write:  2W + 2L = 60 yards.

I see the words "need to use," so I must conclude that all of the fencing must be used.  This sounds like a domestic issue.

Let's use L=2W-20 in the equation 2W + 2L = 60:

2W + 2L = 60

2W + 2(2W-20) = 60

2W + 4W-40 = 60

6W =100

W = (100/6) = 16 2/3 yards

L = 2W - 30

L = 2(16+(2/3)) - 30

L = 33 1/3 - 30

L = 3 1/3 yards

===============

Is the length 30 yards less than twice the width?

2W = 33.33

33.33 - 3.33 = 30 yards  YES

Answers

Answer:

Hello There!

Your question says that

[tex]7 \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{7}{11} [/tex]

Now lets convert mixed fraction to improper fraction

[tex]7 \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ so \: 7 \times 3 + 1 = 22 \\ \\ so \: \frac{22}{3} [/tex]

Now let's simplify..

[tex] \frac{22}{3} \times \frac{7}{11} \\ \\ [/tex]

Now simplify 22 and 11 so it will look like

[tex] \frac{2}{ 3} \times \frac{7}{1} \\ \\ multiply \: \frac{2 \times 7}{3 \times 1} \\ \\ = \frac{14}{3} [/tex]

Now lets convert it to mixed fraction...

[tex] \frac{14}{3} = 4 \frac{2}{3} \\ \\ [/tex]

So it is the answer

[tex]4 \: \frac{2}{3} \\ \\ [/tex]

I hope it is helpful to you..Cheers!______

The product of the two given fraction is [tex]4\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

The given fractions are [tex]7\frac{1}{3}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{7}{11}[/tex].

Product of two fractions = Product of their numerators / Product of their denominators.

Here, [tex]7\frac{1}{3}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{22}{3} \times\frac{7}{11}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{7}{1}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{14}{3}[/tex]

In mixed fraction [tex]4\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

C. The polynomial has 4 terms

D. The polynomial has a degree of 4

E. The polynomial has a leading coefficient of 6

Answer:

D and E are true

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of a polynomial is the value of the largest exponent of the variable within the polynomial, that is the term

Step-by-step explanation:

Tales' theorem

[tex]AB=\frac{(14)(18)}{12}[/tex]

[tex]AB=21[/tex]

Hope this helps

(i)Given that:

AE || BD

AB = ? [Let AB be x]

BC = 3

ED = 12

DC = 4

We know that

By Basic Proportionality Theorem,

AB/BC = ED/DC

On substituting these values in the above formula

⇛ AB / 3 = 12 / 4

On applying cross multiplication then

⇛ x(4) = (12)3

⇛ 4x = 36

Shift the number 4 from LHS to RHS.

⇛ x = 36÷4

⇛ x = 36/4

Therefore, AB = 9

Answer: The value of AB for the given problem is 9.

Similarly,

(ii) Given that:

EB || DC

AE = 14

ED = 12

AB = ? [Let AB be X]

BC = 18

We know that

By Basic Proportionality Theorem,

AE / ED = AB / BC

On substituting these values in the above formula

⇛ 14 / 12 = x / 18

On applying cross multiplication then

⇛ 14(18) = (12)x

⇛ 252 = 12x

Shift the number 252 from LHS to RHS.

⇛ X = 256÷12

⇛ X = 21

Therefore, AB = 21

Answer: The value of AB for the given problem is 21

Suppose that y varies directly with x
and y = 10 when x = 20. What is y
when x = 15?
Enter your answer as a simplified fraction.
y =

Answers

Answer:

15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly as x can be written as:

y & x

y = Kx

K = y/x

But from the question, we were told that:

y = 10

X = 20

K = y/x

K = 10/20

K = 1/2

The formula for the expression is:

y = Kx

y = 1/2 x

Now let us solve for y, when:

x = 15

y = 1/2 x

y = 1/2 x 15

y = 15/2

Answer:

When x = 15, y = 15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:  "y varies directly with x" comes out to y = kx symbolically.

Find the value of the constant of proportionality, k:  If y = 10 when x = 20, then this relationship becomes 10 = 20k, and k = 1/2.

Then the formula is y = (1/2)x.

When x = 15, y = 15/2

A half circle is joined to an equilateral triangle with side lengths of 12 units.

What is the perimeter of the resulting shape? Type your answer in the box below.

Answers

Answer:

P = 12 pi units + 24 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

All sides of an equilateral triangle are of the same length.  Here that length is 12 units.  We take a circle of diameter 12 units and cut it in half through its center.  Finally, we join the triangle (remembering that all of the side lengths are 12 units) to the half circle of diameter 12 units.

The half circle portion of the resulting shape has circumference 2(pi)(12 units) divided by 2, or 12 pi units.  This is half the formula C = 2(pi)(r).  The two non-attached sides of the triangle have a total length of 24 units.

Thus, the perimeter of the resulting figure is P = 12 pi units + 24 units.

HINT: use either of those two equations, use x for 'C and use x for 'F, and solve it for x.

Check whether (19/9, 15/3) is
a solution of the equation 3a + b = 8 or
not where (a,b) is co-ordinate point.​

Answers

Answer:

No, it is not a solution to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

If [tex]( \frac{19}{9} , \frac{15}{3} )[/tex] is a solution of the equation, the left-hand side (LHS) of the equation would equal to the right-hand side (RHS) of the equation.

3a +b= 8

When a= [tex] \frac{19}{9} [/tex], b= [tex] \frac{15}{3} [/tex],

LHS

= [tex]3( \frac{19}{9} ) + \frac{15}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{19}{3} + \frac{15}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{34}{3} [/tex]

[tex] \frac{34}{3} ≠8[/tex]

Since the left-hand side is not equal to the right-hand side of the equation, [tex]( \frac{19}{9} , \frac{15}{3} )[/tex] is not a solution of the equation.

Given equation is 3a+b = 8

Given point = (19/9,15/3)

Put a = 19/9 and b = 15/3 in LHS of the given equation then

⇛ 3(19/9)+(15/3)

⇛(19/3)+(15/3)

⇛ (19+15)/3

⇛ 34/3 ≠ 0

LHS ≠ RHS

Given point not satisfies the given equation

Therefore, it is not the solution of the given point.
