Response:

2(3-n)+5.

Clarification:

Twice a number plus five equals three times the difference between that number and two. "More" indicates addition, hence twice the number is represented as multiplying N (or whatever variable) with the determination that it equals three times the reduction of that number and two.

Q. Fine Floors can install 15 square yards of carpeting in 4 hours and 30 minutes. At this rate, how
lawyer [12517]
It takes 5.22 hours to install carpet in a room. Step-by-step explanation: To start, let's explore the relationship among yards, feet, and inches. 1. 1 yard = 3 feet. 2. 1 foot = 12 inches. 3. Therefore, 1 yard = 36 inches. Now, let's convert all measurements to inches. ∵ 1 yard = 36 inches ∴ 1 yard² = (36)² inches². - Fine Floors can outfit 15 square yards of carpeting in 4 hours and 30 minutes. ∵ 15 yard² equals 15 × (36)² inches², so 15 yards² = 19440 inches². ∵ 1 hour equals 60 minutes, thus 30 minutes = 0.5 hours. Consequently, 4 hours and 30 minutes = 4.5 hours, implying Fine Floors covers 19440 inches² in 4.5 hours. The dimensions of the room are 11 feet 9 inches by 13 feet 4 inches. ∵ 1 foot = 12 inches, therefore, 11 feet 9 inches = 11 × 12 + 9 = 141 inches, and 13 feet 4 inches = 13 × 12 + 4 = 160 inches. Hence, the room’s area is 141 × 160 = 22560 inches². Using the ratio method, we have area of carpeting (in²): time of carpeting (hr) hence, 19440: 4.5 = 22560: h. By cross-multiplying, 19440h = 4.5 × 22560 yields 19440h = 101520. Dividing both sides by 19440 results in h = 5.22 hrs.

If the volume of a cube is increased by a factor of 10, by what factor does the surface area per unit volume change
tester [12383]

Answer:

  (1/10)∛100 ≈ 0.4642

Step-by-step explanation:

For a cubic shape with volume V, the edge length is defined as...

  s = ∛V

and the surface area is given by...

  A = 6s² = 6V^(2/3)

The area-to-volume ratio is therefore...

  r1 = A/V = 6V^(2/3)/V = 6V^(-1/3)

When the volume V is increased by a factor of 10, the new area-to-volume ratio becomes...

  r2 = 6(10V)^(-1/3)

Consequently, the change factor for the ratio is...

  r2/r1 = (6(10V)^(-1/3))/(6V^(-1/3)) = 10^(-1/3) = (1/10)∛100

The change in surface area per unit volume results in a factor of (∛100)/10.

___

Example

For a cube with side length 2, the corresponding volume equals 2³ = 8, with a surface area of 6·2² = 24. The resulting area-to-volume ratio is 24/8 = 3.

<pif we="" multiply="" the="" edge="" length="" by="" new="" volume="" equals="" and="" surface="" area="" equates="" to="" so="" area-to-volume="" ratio="" becomes...="">

The area-to-volume ratio changed by a factor of (0.3∛100)/3 = (∛100)/10, as previously noted.

Unit 3 parallel and perpendicular lines Homework 2, please help quickly
Zina [12379]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that lines l and m are parallel and there is a transversal cutting through these lines.

5). (9x + 2)° = 119° [by alternate interior angles]

    9x = 117 ⇒ x = 13

6). (12x - 8)° + 104° = 180°

     12x = 180 - 96

     x = \frac{84}{12} ⇒ x = 7

7). (5x + 7) = (8x - 71) [by alternate exterior angles]

    8x - 5x = 71 + 7

    3x = 78

     x = 26

8). (4x - 7) = (7x - 61) [by corresponding angles]

    7x - 4x = -7 + 61

    3x = 54

     x = 18

9). (9x + 25) = (13x - 19) [by corresponding angles]

    13x - 9x = 25 + 19

    4x = 44

     x = 11

   (13x - 19)° + (17y + 5)° = 180° [linear pairs of angles sum to supplementary]

    (13×11) - 19 + 17y + 5 = 180

    129 + 17y = 180

    17y = 180 - 129

     y = 3

10). (3x - 29) + (8y + 17) = 180 [linear pairs of angles sum to supplementary]

     3x + 8y = 180 + 12

     3x + 8y = 192 -----(1)

     (8y + 17) = (6x - 7) [by alternate exterior angles]

     6x - 8y = 24

     3x - 4y = 12 -----(2)

     From equation (1) subtract equation (2)

     (3x + 8y) - (3x - 4y) = 192 - 12

     12y = 180

     y = 15

     Plugging into equation (1),

     3x + 8(15) = 192

     3x + 120 = 192

    x = 24

11). (3x + 49)° = (7x - 23)° [by corresponding angles]

    7x - 3x = 49 + 23

    4x = 72 ⇒ x = 18

    (11y - 1)° = (3x)° [by corresponding angles]

    11y = 3×18 + 1

     11y = 55 ⇒ y = 5

12). (5x - 38)° = (3x - 4)° [by corresponding angles]

     5x - 3x = 38 - 4

     2x = 34

     x = 17

     (7y - 20)° + (5x - 38)° + 90° = 180°

     [The angles within a triangle sum to 180°]

     7y + 5x - 58 = 90

     5x + 7y = 148

     5×17 + 7y = 148

     85 + 7y = 148

     7y = 148 - 85

     y = \frac{63}{7}=9

In right triangle qrs, angle r is a right angle. The altitude rt is drawn to hypotenuse qs. If qr is 20 and qs is 25 then find t
lawyer [12517]

Answer:

qt's length = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem states that qrs is a right triangle,

where qr = 20

          sr =?

          qs = 25

          qt =?

1)

Calculate sr

hypotenuse² = base² + height²

sq² = sr² + rq²

25² - 20² = sr²

sr = √(25² - 20²)

sr = 15

2)

When altitude rt is dropped to hypotenuse qs, it creates

two right triangles: rtq and rts.

Δrtq

height = rt

base= tq = 25 - x

hypotenuse = qt = 20

Δrts

height = rt

base= ts = x

hypotenuse = sr = 15

Both triangles share the same height, which is rt

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

      Δ rtq                                           Δ rts

hypotenuse² - base² = height²

20² - (25 - x)² = 15² - x²

400 - (625 + x² - 50x) = 225 - x²

400 - 625 - x² + 50x = 225 - x²

-225 - x² + 50x - 225 + x² = 0

-450 + 50 x = 0

50x = 450

x = 450/50

x = 9

Base of Δ rtq = tq = 25 - x

                         tq = 25 - 9

                         tq = 16

Un globo vuela entre dos ciudades A y B, que distan entre sí 1.500 m. Los tripulantes del globo ven la ciudad A con un ángulo de
Inessa [12570]

Respuesta:

La altitud del globo por encima del nivel del suelo es de 449,6 metros.

Explicación paso a paso:

El enunciado no está completo. El texto completo es: "Un globo se desplaza entre las ciudades A y B, que se encuentran a 1.500 m de distancia. Los ocupantes del globo observan la ciudad A con un ángulo de depresión de 27°, mientras que, para la ciudad B, el ángulo es de 36°. ¿Cuál es la altura aproximada del globo con respecto al suelo?"

El diagrama que ilustra esta situación está en el archivo adjunto. Para calcular la altura del globo, se pueden emplear las funciones trigonométricas, siendo recomendable hacer uso de la función tangente para los ángulos de depresión mencionados:

Ciudad A

\tan 27^{\circ} = \frac{h}{1500\,m-x}

0,510 = \frac{h}{1500\,m-x}

Ciudad B

\tan 36^{\circ} = \frac{h}{x}

0,727 = \frac{h}{x}

Donde h y x representan la altura desde el suelo y la distancia horizontal desde la ciudad A.

Luego, se igualan las alturas en ambas ecuaciones para calcular la distancia horizontal del globo en relación a la ciudad A:

0,727\cdot x = 0,510\cdot (1500\,m-x)

1,237\cdot x = 765\,m

x = 618,432\,m

Por último, la altura del globo sobre el suelo se calcula como:

h = 0,727\cdot x

h = 0,727\cdot (618,432\,m)

h = 449,600\,m

La altura del globo respecto al nivel del suelo es 449,6 metros.
