Jacoby is using a bucket to collect nuts from a nut tree. He then dumps the bucket into a barrel for shipping of the nuts. He notices that 1 over 5 bucket of nuts fills 2 over 3 of the barrel.

Write and solve an equation to find the number of buckets that will fill the entire barrel. Be sure to define your variable and show your work. Explain your answer in words. (10 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

You need 3/10 buckets of nuts to fill the barrel.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1/5 of a bucket of nuts, fills 2/3 of the barrel.

Then how much we need to fill the other 1/3 of the barrel?

1/3 = (2/3)/2

Then we need half of 1/5 buckets of nuts, this is:

(1/5)/2 = 1/10 buckets of nuts.

Then we need in total:

1/5 + 1/10 buckets of nuts.

we can multiply and divide the left fraction by 2, to get:

(2/2)*(1/5) + 1/10 = 2/10 + 1/10 = 3/10

You need 3/10 buckets of nuts to fill the barrel.

Let x and y be inversely related such that y = 2 when x = 5. Find y when x = 15

Answers

Answer:

y would be 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 5 x 3 would be 15

then you would do 2 x 3 would be 6

Answer:

y=2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

first make the equation to interpret the question

x=k/y

find the value of k, which is a constant

when x=5 and y=2

5=k/2

k=10.

hence, find y when x=15

x=k/y

x=10/y

15=10/y

cross multiply

15y=10

divide both sides by 15

y=10/15

y=2/3

[tex]x = 15 \sqrt{2} [/tex]

[tex]y = 15 \sqrt{2} [/tex]

Answer:

x = y = 15[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

sin45° = [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}[/tex] , then

sin45° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{30}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 30 )

30 × sin45° = x , then

x = 30 × [tex]\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}[/tex] = 15[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

The triangle is a right isosceles triangle thus the legs are congruent, then

x = y = 15[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]

The dimensions of a standard tennis court are 36 ft. 78 ft. with a net that is 3 ft. high in the center. The

court is modified for players aged 10 and under such that the dimensions are 27 ft. x 60 ft., and the same

net is used. Use similarity to determine if the modified court is similar to the standard court.

Try to dilate the modified court to make it the same size as the standard court. The dilation factor for the

width is

. The dilation factor for the length is

. Based on similarity, the modified

court is similar to the standard court.

Answers

Answer:

The dilation factor of the width is 3/4

The dilation factor of the length is 10/13

The standard court and the modified court are not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

The given dimension of a tennis courts are given as follows;

The width of the standard tennis court = 36 ft.

The length of the standard tennis court = 78 ft.

The height of the  net of the standard tennis court = 3 ft.

The width of the modified tennis court = 27 ft.

The length of the modified tennis court = 60 ft.

The height of the  net of the standard tennis court = 3 ft.

The dilation factor of the width = (Modified court width)/(Standard court width)

∴ The dilation factor of the width = (27 ft.)/(36 ft.) = 3/4

Therefore, the width of the modified court = 3/4 × The width of the standard court

∴ The dilation factor of the length = (60 ft.)/(78 ft.) = 10/13

Therefore, the length of the modified court = 10/13 × The length of the standard court

The dilation factor for the width is different from the dilation factor for the length and the net of both courts are of equal dimension, therefore, based on similarity theorem, both courts are not similar.

Find the relation and solve the answers. Options are given below. ​

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. 453

Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are not related by factors, because the factors of 779 are 1, 19, 41, and 779

Similarly the factors of 926 are 1, 2, 463, 926

Therefore, the numbers are related by direct association of each digit of the central number to each of the three numbers on the vertices of the triangle as follows;

For the first triangle, we have the numbers at the vertices are; at the top, 14, at the bottom left is 21, and at the bottom right is 36, we have;

Top number divided by 2 gives 14/2          [tex]{}[/tex]      = 7

Bottom left number divided by 3 gives 21/3   [tex]{}[/tex] = 7

Bottom right number divided by 4 gives 36/4 = 9

From which we have the number at the center which is 779

Similarly, for the second triangle, we have the numbers at the vertices are; at the top, 18, at the bottom left is 6, and at the bottom right is 24, we have;

Top number divided by 2 gives 18/2          [tex]{}[/tex]      = 9

Bottom left number divided by 3 gives 6/3   [tex]{}[/tex]  = 2

Bottom right number divided by 4 gives 24/4 = 6

From which we have the number at the center which is 962

Therefore, when we have, the numbers at the vertices as follows;

At the top, 8, at the bottom left is 15, and at the bottom right is 12, we have;

Top number divided by 2 gives 8/2          [tex]{}[/tex]      = 4

Bottom left number divided by 3 gives 15/3   [tex]{}[/tex] = 5

Bottom right number divided by 4 gives 12/4 = 3

From which we have the number at the center is 453.
