one inch equals to 2.54 cm. Write an equation for the length x, in inches, that equals to 15 cm

Answers

Answer 1
You would do 2.54 times 15 which is 38.1. Your answer would be 38.1 cm. Hope this helps! Happy Studying!
Answer 2

Final answer:

To convert 15 cm to inches, use the conversion factor 1 inch = 2.54 cm and set up a proportion. Solve for x to find that 15 cm is approximately equal to 5.91 inches.

Explanation:

To write an equation for the length x, in inches, that equals to 15 cm, we can use the conversion factor 1 inch = 2.54 cm. We can set up a proportion to solve for x:

1 inch/2.54 cm = x inch/15 cm

Cross multiplying, we get:

2.54x = 15

Dividing both sides by 2.54, we find that x = 5.91 inches.

What is the greatest fraction you can make using the digits 4, 7, and 9?

Answers

Answer:

  (7^9)/4 = 40,353,607/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming each digit is used once and exponentiation is allowed, the largest numerator and smallest denominator will result in the largest fraction.

__

If other functions, such as factorial are allowed, then there might need to be a limit on the number of times they are applied. For example,

  (7!)^(9!)/4 has about 1 million digits

something like ...

  ((7!)^(9!))!/4 has many more digits than that

and you can keep piling on the factorial symbols to any desired depth.

What is the area of this trapezoid? 96 in² 132 in² 168 in² 1344 in² Trapezoid A B C D with parallel sides D C and A B. Points F and E are between D and C. F E B A form a rectangle with 4 right angles. D F is 3 inches, F E is 8 inches., E C is 3 inches., E B is 12 inches., and A B is 8 inches.

Answers

Answer
132 〖in〗^2


Explanation
Although the diagram was not given, I was able to get it in the internet.
The area of a trapezium is found by the use of the following formula:
Area =1/2 h(a+b)
Where h is perpendicular distance between the two parallel lines, while a and b is are the lengths of the parallel lines.
In this question;
h=12 in
a=8 in
b=3+8+3=14 in
Area =1/2×12(8+14)
=6×22
132 〖in〗^2 

Answer:

Option B. 132 inch²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the formula to calculate the area of trapezoid is = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(height)(base)[/tex]

where height of the given trapezoid ABCD is side BE and two parallel sides are AB and DC.

It's given in the question

Side BE = 12 inches

AB = 8 inches

DC = (DF + FE + EC) = (3 + 8 + 3) = 14 inches

Now we put these values in the formula

Area of trapezoid ABCD = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(AB+CD).(BE) = \frac{1}{2}(8 + 14).(12)=\frac{1}{2}(22)(12)=(11).(12)=132[/tex]

Therefore answer is Option B. 132 inch²

A trucker traveled an average of 48.6 miles each hour on a 583.2-mile trip. For how many hours did the trucker travel?

Answers

Divide 583.2 by 48.6 to get your answer, 12 hours.

Answer: The trucker traveled for 12 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A trucker traveled an average of 48.6 miles each hour on a 583.2-mile trip.

i.e. Total distance =  583.2 miles

Average speed =  48.6 miles per hour

Using Formula , [tex]\text{Total Time}=\dfrac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Average speed}}[/tex]

We have

[tex]\text{Total Time}=\dfrac{583.2}{48.6}\\\\=\dfrac{5832}{486}\\\\=12\text{ hours}[/tex]

Hence, the trucker traveled for 12 hours.

you have a piggy bank containing a total of 93 coins in dimes and quarters. If the piggy bank contains $14.85, how many dimes are there in piggy bank

Answers

Let d = number of dimes.
Let q = number of quarters.

The total number of coins is 93, so the first equation is

d + q = 93

The value of 1 dime is $0.10. The value of 1 quarter is $0.25.
d dimes are worth 0.1d, and q quarters are worth 0.25q.
The total value of the coins is $14.85, so that gives us our second equation.

0.1d + 0.25q = 14.85

Now we have a system of two equations in two unknowns.

d + q = 93
0.1d + 0.25q = 14.85

Rewrite the first equation. Then multiply both sides of the second equation by -10, and write it underneath. Then add the equations.

 d +     q =     93
-d - 2.5q = -148.5
------------------------
      -1.5q = -55.5

Divide both sides by -1.5.

q = 37

Now substitute 37 for q in the first original equation and solve for d.

d + q = 93

d + 37 = 93

Subtract 37 from both sides.

d = 56

Answer: There are 56 dimes in the piggy bank.

The answer to your question is 8mi. I just divide the circumference by pi to find your diameter.
Circumference=2pi*r or 
and diameter=2r
in your case, the circumference is 25.12 miles, so we plug it in to the first formula:
25.12=2pi*r
12.56=3.14*r
4=r
and since 2r=diameter, the diameter is 8

The ratio of the areas of two similar polygons can be found by using the ratio of their perimeters or the ratio of similarity and squaring it. Always Sometimes Never

Answers

The ratio of the areas of two similar polygons can be found by squaring the ratio of their perimeters or corresponding linear dimensions, but this method only works sometimes, specifically with similar polygons, and not with non-similar ones.

The ratio of the areas of two similar polygons is indeed found by taking the ratio of their corresponding linear dimensions and squaring it. This is because the area is a two-dimensional measurement, whereas perimeter and linear dimensions are one-dimensional. For similar polygons, which are polygons that have the same shape but may have different sizes, any linear dimensions (such as sides, perimeters, diagonals) are proportional.

When you have two similar polygons and you know the ratio of their perimeters, you can use this perimeter ratio to find the ratio of their corresponding side lengths since the ratio of the perimeters of similar polygons is equal to the ratio of their corresponding linear dimensions. After finding this linear ratio, you square it to obtain the ratio of their areas because if one dimension is multiplied by a scale factor 's', the area is multiplied by 's' squared (scale factor squared).

It is important to note, however, that this rule only applies to similar polygons (similarity) and not to polygons that aren't similar, since non-similar polygons do not have a constant ratio of corresponding linear dimensions. Therefore, to answer the original question, the method works sometimes, specifically when dealing with similar polygons.

Draw three dimes 1 nickel and 2 pennies. Describe how to count on to find the total value of this group of coins

Answers

Total Value: $0.37

The total value of this group of coins can be found by first counting the value of each type of coin, and then adding them all together. The value of a dime is 10 cents, so if there are three dimes, the total value is 30 cents. The value of a nickel is 5 cents, so if there is one nickel, the total value is 5 cents. The value of a penny is 1 cent so if there are two pennies, the total value is 2 cents. After adding 30 + 5 + 2, the total comes to $0.37.
