The area of a plot of land is 2496 square meters. A small part of the land is fenced. The ratio of the area of the plot of land to the area that is not fenced is 48:31. What is the area of the land that is not fenced?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: My late response (haha): First, you would write a proportion.

Step 1: 2496 over 48 = x over 31
(x represents the area of the land that is not fenced).

Step 2: Cross multiply
2496 times 31 and x times 48

Step 3: Calculate
77376 = 48x

Step 4: Divide both sides by 48
77376/48 = 1612
48x/48 = x

Step 5: Write it as a sentence 
The area of the land that is not fenced is 1612 squared meters. 

Hope that helped! Good luck! :]

Write at least three statements showing what you know about the fraction 3/4

Answers

The statements are

The fractions 6/8 , 12/16 , 24/32 are equal to 3/4

The fraction 3/4 is 25 % more than 1/2

The fraction 3/4 is 75 %

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the number be A = 3/4

I.

Now ,

The number A can be written as its percentage form as 75 %

A percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, %

So , 3/4 x 100 = 300 / 4

= 75%


Therefore , the fraction 3/4 is 75 %

II.

Now ,

The number A can be written as 25 % more than 1/2

It is written as 1/2 + 25 %

= 1/2 + 1/4

= 3/4

III.

Therefore , the fraction 3/4 is 25 % more than 1/2

Now ,

The fractions 6/8 , 12/16 , 24/32 ... all can be simplified to 3/4

Therefore , 6/8 , 12/16 , 24/32 are equal to 3/4

What is the factor form of x^2-9x+14

Answers

x^2-9x+14 =x^2-2x-7x+14=x(x-2)-7(x-2)=(x-7)(x-2)

Answer:

(x - 7)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 14) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 9)

The factors are - 7 and - 2, since

- 7 × - 2 = + 14 and - 7 - 2 = - 9, hence

x² - 9x + 14 = (x - 7)(x - 2) ← in factored form

What °(degree) dose a isoscele,scalene and equilateral have to be to make it acute, obtuse or right?

Answers

ok so defenitions
isosceles means 2 angles or sides are equal legnth

scaleen means no sides or angles are eaqual measure

equilateral means all sides and angles are equal measure
(since all side equal measure, all angles are always 60)



acute means all angles are less than 90
obtuse means at least one angle is more than 90
right means that  1 angle is 90 degrees


ok so
isosceleese
for it to be acute, maybe make the angles 50,50,80
obtuse 40,40,100
right 90,45,45

scaleene
acute, 30,70,80
obtuse 100,30,50
right, 90,40,50

equilateral all angles are automatically equal to 60 so
acute: 60,60,60
obtuse: not possible
right: not possible
