Answer:

The question lacks clarity, so here is a more clearly articulated question along with the response:

A customer requests to scale up a photo to 2 3/4 times its existing height. The current height of the photo stands at 3 1/4 inches. What will the new height be after enlarging, in inches?

Answer:

Enlarged\ height = 8\frac{15}{16}\ inches

Step-by-step explanation:

current\ height\ =\ 3\frac{1}{4} = \frac{13}{4} \\ magnification\ factor = 2\frac{3}{4} = \frac{11}{4} \\Magnification (enlargement)\ =\ (magnification\ factor) \times (current\ height)\\Magnification\ =\ \frac{11}{4} \times \frac{13}{4}\\ Magnification\ =\ \frac{143}{16}

Next, we convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

When 143 is divided by 16, the result is 8 whole numbers with a remainder of 15, thus the mixed number is:

\frac{143}{16} = 8\frac{15}{16} (A scientific calculator can also be utilized)

This means the enlarged height will be = 8\frac{15}{16}\ inches

Which lines are parallel? Justify your answer.
zzz [12365]

Answer:

Lines a and b are considered parallel due to their corresponding angles being equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The corresponding angle postulate states that two lines are parallel when a transversal intersects them and their corresponding angles are congruent.

In this case, line a and line b are intersected by transversal e, with both corresponding angles measuring 110 (which are congruent), hence, according to the corresponding angle postulate, we can conclude that line a and line b are indeed parallel to each other.

Lila needs a custom frame for a painting that her friend made for her. I’ve Been Framed is offering 50 percent off plus an addit
Leona [12618]

Answer:

The Framers provides the more affordable price, being $1.35 less expensive.

Step-by-step explanation:

I've Been Framed:

50% of $115 amounts to $57.5.

10% of $57.5 equals $5.75.

Subtracting gives $57.5 - $5.75 = $51.75.

Total: $51.75

The Framers:

30% off $120 results in $36.

After discount, $120 - $36 equals $84.

40% off $84 is $33.6.

Subtracting gives $84 - $33.6 = $50.4.

Price difference: $1.35

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
