A triangle with vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 4), and C(6, 0) is dilated to yield a triangle with vertices at A′(0, 0), B′(0, 10), and C′(15, 0)-. The origin is the center of dilation. What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A triangle ABC is similar to a triangle A´B´C´ The scale factor of the dilatation : s.
0 * s =0
4 * s = 10
6 * s = 15
s= 10/4=15/6=2.5
The scale factor of the dilatation is 2.5.  It is shown in the attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bruce has a bottle that contains 60% of lemon juice and the rest water. The bottle has 1 liter of water. PARTA: Write an equation in one variable that can be used to find the total number of liters of lemon juice and water in the bottle. Define the variable used in the equation. (5 points) Part B: How many liters of lemon juice are present in the bottle? Show your work. (5 points)

Answers

Let x= the total volume of liquid the bottle can hold. 
Since 40% of the liquid is water, then .4x = 1L 

Then you solve for x. 

0.4x=1L
0.4x/0.4 = 1L/0.4
x = 2.5 L

So we have the total volume of the bottle which is 2.5 L.

Now, let the number of liters of lemon juice be y. 
y=0.6x 
So the equation would be x = 0.4x + y
or simply, x = .4x + .6x

Solve for y. 
y= 0.6(2.5L) 
y= 1.5L


So the amount of lemon juice in the bottle is 1.5 L.

The correct answers are:

2.5 L of liquid total and 1.5 L of lemon juice.

Explanation:

Since the bottle contains 60% lemon juice, this means that 100-60 = 40% of the bottle is water.  We know that there is 1 liter of water; this means we have the equation

0.4x = 1, where x is the total amount of liquid in the bottle.

Divide both sides by 0.4:

0.4x/0.4 = 1/0.4

x = 2.5

There are 2.5 L of liquid.

60% of the liquid is lemon juice; this gives us

0.6(2.5) = 1.5

There are 1.5 L of lemon juice.

3х – 13 = 23
Please give an explanation to the answer

Answers

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

This equation is very easy to solve.

3x - 13 = 23 Add 13 to both sides of the equation.

3x = 36 Divide by 3 on both sides of the equation.

x = 12

Then, check your answer by substituting the solved value.

3(12) - 13 = 23

36 - 13 = 23

23 = 23

Therefore, x = 12 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 13 = 23

Bring non-variable numbers to other side:

3x = 36

Divide both sides by 3:

x = 12

The center of a circle is located at (3, 8), and the circle has a radius that is 5 units long. What is the general form of the equation for the circle? A. x2 + y2 − 6x − 16y + 48 = 0 B. x2 + y2 − 6x − 16y − 25 = 0 C. x2 + y2 + 6x + 16y + 48 = 0 D. x2 + y2 + 6x + 16y − 25 = 0

Answers

Answer:

  A.  x² +y² -6x -16y +48 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard-form equation for a circle centered at (h, k) with radius r is ...

   (x -h)² +(y -k)² = r²

For your circle, this is ...

  (x -3)² +(y -8)² = 5²

To put this in general form, you subtract the constant on the right, and eliminate parentheses:

  x² -6x +9 +y² -16x +64 -25 = 0

  x² +y² -6x -16y +48 = 0 . . . . . rearrange to descending powers of x, y

(will give brainliest)a hiker, whose eye is 1.6 meters above ground, stands 50 meters from the base of connecting her eye and the top of the cliff and a horizontal line is 58°. draw a diagram representing the situation and find the height of the cliff

Answers

Answer:

The height of the cliff is 81.6m

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see the attachment below for an illustrative diagram representing the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram

x = /AB/

The height of the cliff is given by ( x + 1.6m)

Considering triangle ABC which is a right-angle triangle

/AB/ is the opposite and

/BC/ is the adjacent ; /BC/ = 50m

Angle of elevation is 58°

Then, we can write that

Tan 58^(o) = (/AB/)/(50m)

/AB/ = 50 (tan58^(o))\n

/AB/ = 50 * 1.600

/AB/ = 80.0m

Hence, Side /AB/ = 80.0m

Since, /AB/ = x

∴ x = 80.0 m

Recall, the height of the cliff is given by

x + 1.6m

= 80.0m + 1.6m  

= 81.6 m

Hence, the height of the cliff is 81.6m

Answer:

80.02m

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached. Using SOH, CAH, TOA to find the height of the cliff AC,

AC is the opposite side and BC is the adjacent

Given BC = 50m and ∠ABC = 58°

tan∠ABC = AC/BC

tan58° = AC/50

cross multiply

AC = 50tan58°

AC = 80.02m

Hence the height of the cliff is 80.02m
