What is the length of the side of a square field whose perimeter is 72 mº.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

18 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

"Perimeter" is all 4 sides added together, right?

Since it's a square, all four sides are equal, so the problem looks like this:

s + s + s + s = 72  where s = side length

Before doing any math, can you think of a number that you could add to itself 4 times and get 72?  If not, you get to do some algebra:

s + s + s + s = 72  reduces to:

4s = 72  Then solve for s:

s = 72/4 = 18 m

Check your work by seeing if 4 x 18 = 72.  It does, so the answer is correct.

Luke has a situation on his hands. A pipe in his house froze and cracked from cold weather. Now he has a water leak. The leak has been releasing 2/3 of a liter of water every 2 hours. If w represents the amount of water lost and h represents the number of hours, which equation represents this proportional relationship?

Answers

The proportional relationship is W = 1/3 h if the leak has been releasing 2/3 of a liter of water every 2 hours option (B) is correct.

What is a proportional relationship?

It is defined as the relationship between two variables when the first variable increases, the second variable also increases according to the constant factor.

It is given that:

Luke has a situation on his hands. A pipe in his house froze and cracked from cold weather.

The leak has been releasing 2/3 of a liter of water every 2 hours.

Here w represents the amount of water lost and h represents the number of hours

Based on the data given:

We can formulate the number expression:

5/7 - 2/3

= 1/21

The proportional relationship is:

W = 1/3 h

Thus, the proportional relationship is W = 1/3 h if the leak has been releasing 2/3 of a liter of water every 2 hours option (B) is correct.

Solve the equation. 33 = p - 6.71
a. 39.71
b. 26.29
c. 39.71
d. 26.29

Answers

33 = p - 6.71

Add 6.71 on both sides

33 + 6.71 = p - 6.71 + 6.71

p = 33 + 6.71

p = 39.71


Your final answer is a. 39.71 and c. 39.71.
answer (c) 39.71

The volume of a prism changes from 20 to 540 after a dilation. what was the scale factor of the dilation?

Answers

Scale factor is used by architects or engineers to transfer their prototype idea to large-scale use. If the volume of a prism is 20, you need to multiply its dimensions with a scale factor to find the new volume which is 540. For example, if the volume is doubled, this means you used a scale factor of 2. Hence, you just have to divide the new volume by the smaller volume.

Scale factor = 540/20
Scale factor = 27

Answer:

The scale factor is 3 : 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

The scale factor of the dilation of a prism is the cube root of the ratio of the volume of resultant prism after dilation and the volume of the given prism,

Here, the volume of prism before dilation = 20 cube unit,

And, the volume of the prism after dilation = 540 cube unit,

Thus, by the above statement,

\text{The scale factor of dilation}=\sqrt[3]{(540)/(20)}

=\sqrt[3]{27}

=3

Hence, the scale factor is 3 : 1.

A balloon has a circumference of 28 in. Use the circumference to approximate the volume of the balloon to the nearest square inch.Answer choices:
3,659 in ^3
11,488 in ^3
2,964 in ^3
944 in ^3

Answers

the correct question is
a) A balloon has a circumference of 28 in. Use the circumference to approximate the volume of the balloon to the nearest cubic inch.

or

b) A balloon has a circumference of 28 in. Use the circumference to approximate the surface area of the balloon to the nearest square inch.

case a)
we know that
circumference=2*pi*r
clear variable r
r=circumference/(2*pi)
circumference=28 in
r=28/(2*pi)----> r=4.46 in

volume of a balloon=(4/3)*pi*r³-----> (4/3)*pi*4.46³----> 371.61 in³
Volume=372 in³

the answer is
372 in³


case b)
we know that
circumference=2*pi*r
clear variable r
r=circumference/(2*pi)
circumference=28 in
r=28/(2*pi)----> r=4.46 in

surface area of a balloon=4*pi*r²-----> 4*pi*4.46²---> 249.83 in²
Surface area=249.83 in²-------> 250 in²

the answer is
250 in²
