solve the proportional equation
5/12 = x/15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 6.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's put your question into a proper proportional form, because it is a ratio that is equal.

[tex]\frac{5}{12} = \frac{x}{15}[/tex]

To solve proportions, you have to cross-multiply in the direction that has numbers, which is 5 and 15, then divide to 12.

[tex]5 * 15 / 12 = 6.25[/tex]

The answer you should get by doing this is 6.25.

Answer 2

Answer:

x=6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Cross multiply

5/12=x/15

12*x=15*5

12x=75

Divide both sides by 12 to isolate the variable x

x=6.25

Or, multiply both sides by 15 to "reverse" the division being done to x

5/12=x/15

15*5/12=x/15*15

6.25=x

68+51=119

A=180-119=61

180-61=119

B=119

Answer:

∠ B = 119°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ C and 112° are adjacent angles and supplementary, thus

∠ C = 180° - 112° = 68°

The external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ B is an exterior angle of the triangle, thus

∠ B = 51° + ∠ C = 51° + 68° = 119°

The square of a positive number increased by twice the number equals three. Find the number

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

x² + 2x = 3

x² + 2x - 3 = 0

Product  = -3

Sum =2

Factors = 3 * (-1)

x² + 3x - x - 3 = 0

x*(x+3) - (x + 3) = 0

(x + 3)(x - 1) = 0

Ignore x + 3 because the number is a positive number

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

The number is 1

Answers

Square Pyramid

Hence , the surface area of the square pyramid is 340 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The square pyramid has a square base

Given that the base side is 10 ft and the slant height of the pyramid is 12 ft.

The surface area of a square pyramid is SA, then

SA = Area of the base + [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × P × Sh

where P is the perimeter of the base and Sh is the slant height of the pyramid

P = 4 × 10

SA = [tex]10^{2} + \frac{1}{2}[/tex]× 40 × 12

SA = 100 + 240

SA= 340 square feet

Hence , the surface area of the square pyramid is 340 square feet

A tent company makes one type of tent that is shaped like a triangular prism. The approximate dimensions are 5ft, 6ft, 9ft and 5.5ft. Based on these dimensions, how much fabric is needed to make one tent, including floor.

Answers

Given:

The base of the triangle = 6 ft

The height of the triangle = 5 ft

The other two side of the triangle = 5.5 ft and 5.5 ft

The height of the prism = 9 ft

To find the measurement of the fabric to make the tent.

We need to find the surface area of the triangular prism.

Formula

The surface area of the triangular prism is

[tex]SA = bh+(a+b+c)H[/tex]

where, b be the base of the triangle

h be the height of the triangle

a and c be other two sides of the triangle

H be the height of the prism

Now,

Putting,

b = 6, h = 5, a = 5.5, c = 5.5 and H = 9 we get,

[tex]SA = (5)(6)+(6+5.5+5.5)(9)[/tex] sq ft

or, [tex]SA = 30+153[/tex] sq ft

or, [tex]SA = 183[/tex] sq ft

Hence,

Based on the given dimension 183 sq ft fabric is needed to make the tent.

Clint found the area of the parallelogram shown. Which statement explains the error Clint made?

Clint’s Work:

a.Clint used the wrong units. He should have used cm, as that is what was in the diagram.

b.Clint used the wrong formula. He should have used A = one-half b h.

c.Clint did not use all three numbers in the diagram. He should have multiplied them all.
d.Clint did not use a height perpendicular to the base. He should have used 4 for the height.

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

like it said, he used 5 instead of the actual height which is 4

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is denoted by: [tex]A=bh[/tex] , where b is the base and h is the height that is perpendicular to the base. Depending on what kind of parallelogram it is (square, rectangle, rhombus, regular parallelogram), that height could be the side length, but usually it is not; it is only the side length in special cases, like a square.

Here, we are given that the base is 11 and that the height is 4. Since the problem gives us two different values for the height versus the side length, we know that for this parallelogram, the height is not the same as the side length. Thus, we must use 4 for the height and 11 for the base in the area formula.

Therefore, the only answer that correctly points out this mistake is D.

In this exercise, you will write some code that reads n unique (no duplicates!) non-negative integers, each one less than fifty (50). Your code will print them in sorted order without using any nested loops-- potentially very efficient! We'll walk you through this: First, assume you are given an int variable n, that contains the number of integers to read from standard input. Also assume you are given an array, named wasReadIn, of fifty (50) bool elements and initialize all the elements to false. Third, read in the n integers from the input, and each time you read an integer, use it as an index into the bool array, and assign that element to be true-- thus "marking" in the array which numbers have been read. Lastly the "punchline": write a loop that traverses the bool array: every time it finds an element that is true it prints out the element's INDEX -- which was one of the integers read in. Place all the numbers on a single line, separated by a single spaces. Note: this technique is not limited to 50 elements-- it works just as well for larger values.
