The side lengths of the state flag of Colorado are in the ratio 2:3. If the flag is 12 feet long, what is it’s height

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

18 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height be x

We are given that The side lengths of the state flag of Colorado are in the ratio 2:3.

Length: Height = 2:3

Length of the flag is 12 feet long

Length : Height = 12:x

So, ATQ

2:3::12:x

[tex]\frac{2}{3}=\frac{12}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{12 \times 3}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=18[/tex]

Hence it’s height is 18 feet

Answer 2
Final answer:

To find the height of the Colorado state flag, we can use the given ratio of side lengths and solve for the unknown height using a proportion.

Explanation:

To find the height of the Colorado state flag, we can use the given ratio of side lengths – 2:3. Since the given length is 12 feet, we can set up the ratio equation as follows:

2/3 = 12/x

To solve for x, we can cross multiply:

2x = 3 * 12

Simplifying further, we get:

2x = 36

Dividing both sides by 2, we find that:

x = 18

Therefore, the height of the Colorado state flag is 18 feet.

Blue's Berry Farm charges Percy a total of $24.75 for entrance and 2.5 kilograms of strawberries. The entrance fee is $6, and the price for each kilogram of strawberries is constant. The total cost C for picking strawberries is a function of x, the kilograms of strawberries picked. Write the functions formula. C=

Answers

Answer:

C = 6 + 7.5 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The amount is $24.75 for entrance and 2.5 kilograms of strawberries.

⇒ Entrance fee + 2.5 kilograms of strawberries = $24.75

Since, Entrance fee = $ 6,

And,  the price for each kilogram of strawberries is constant.

⇒  $ 6 + 2.5 × 1 kilograms of strawberries = $24.75

⇒ 2.5 × 1 kilograms of strawberries = 18.75

1 kilograms of strawberries = $ 7.5.

Thus, the cost of x  strawberries = 7.5 x

Also, the total charge for x strawberries = Entrance fee + the cost of x  strawberries

= 6 + 7.5 x

C = 6 + 7.5 x

Answer:

The graph that represents Margo's coin collection is:

      Graph of line going through (1, 4) and (3, 10).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

She was given 1 coin as a gift, and she adds 3 coins per year.

Let a_n denote the amount of Money Margo had in the end of the "nth" year.

According to the given information we have:

[tex]a_1=1+3=4[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the table, the values should be

Year 1   725  

Year 2   579

Year 3   696

Since Year 4 sold 112% of the previous 3 years combined, we add 725+579+696=2000. We can find 112% by writing a proportion.

[tex]\frac{112}{100} =\frac{x}{2000}[/tex]

We solve through cross multiplication of numerator and denominator of the opposite fraction.

[tex]112(2000)=100(x)\\224000=100x\\2,240=x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The target area is shown in the attached picture.

We want to figure out probability of hitting red region.

The area of the figure is the area of the red square, which is 196.

Area of red region is area of whole square (196) minus area of blue square (64). So we have:

Area of red region =  196 - 64 = 132


Probability of hitting red region is 132 divided by total, which is 196.

after 8% discount from the list price, the sale price price of a poster was $17.48. what was the list price of poster.

Answers

Well the answer would be $18.8784 but if you want it to be shorter it would be $18.88 because you multiply 17.48 and 0.08 and get 1.3984 and then you add it to $17.48

Final answer:

To find the list price of the poster after an 8% discount, subtract 8% of the list price from the list price and set it equal to the sale price.

Explanation:

To find the list price of the poster, we need to first calculate the original price before the discount. Let's assume the list price is 'x' dollars. After an 8% discount, the sale price of the poster is $17.48.

We can set up an equation to solve for the list price: x - 8% of x = $17.48. To calculate 8% of x, we multiply x by 0.08.

So the equation becomes: x - 0.08x = $17.48. Combining like terms, we get 0.92x = $17.48. Dividing both sides by 0.92, we find that x = $19.

Answer:  The correct option is (D) [tex]\dfrac{3-2}{0-2}=\dfrac{3-1}{0-4}.[/tex]

 

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that ΔCDE and ΔCFG are similar right triangles.

We are to select the correct proportion that can be used to show that the slope of CE is equal to the slope of CG.

We know that the slope of a line passing through two points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

[tex]m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.[/tex]

From the given figure, we note that the co-ordinates of the points C, E and G are

C(0, 3), E(2, 2) and G(4, 1).

So, the slope of line CE is given by

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{2-3}{2-0},[/tex]

and the slope of line CG is given by

[tex]m_2=\dfrac{1-3}{4-0}.[/tex]

Since the lines CE and CG are same, they must be parallel and hence they have equal slopes.

Therefore,

[tex]m_1=m_2\\\\\\\Rightarrow\dfrac{2-3}{2-0}=\dfrac{1-3}{4-0}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3-2}{0-2}=\dfrac{3-1}{0-4}.[/tex]

Thus, (D) is the correct option.

Find m angle 1 and m angle 3 in the kite.

Answers

Answers:

Angle 1 is 40 degrees

Angle 2 is 90 degrees

Angle 3 is 50 degrees

===========================================

Explanations:

Triangle ABC is a reflection of triangle ADC over the line AC. Doing this reflection forms the kite ABCD. Or you can think of it as gluing two congruent triangles together (ABC and ADC). We can prove the two triangles ABC and ADC congruent by the SSS congruence property. Then we use CPCTC (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent) to prove that angle 1 is 40.

Let E be the intersection of the two diagonals. Through similar reasoning as earlier, we can prove that triangle AEB is congruent to triangle AED, so that leads to angle 2 being 90 degrees because this angle adds to its counterpart to get 180. Both unknown angles are x each meaning x+x = 180 leads to x = 90. One property of kites is that the diagonals are perpendicular.

Triangle AED is a right triangle as discussed above. Therefore, the angle 3 and the 40 degree angle are complementary. If angle 3 is y, then y+40 = 90 giving y = 90-40 = 50, which is why angle 3 is 50 degrees.

Using angle theorems, the value of the angles m1 and m3 are 40° and 50° respectively.

Taking the midpoint of DB as O ;

Angle OAD and Angle OAB are equal

OAD = 40° ; OAB = 40°

A right angle is formed at O ;

Hence,

(O + D + A) = 180°

90° + D + 40° = 180° (Sum of interior angles of a triangle)

D = 180 - 130

D = 50°

Hence, m∠3 = 50°.

Therefore, the value of the angles m1 and m3 are 40° and 50° respectively.

I spent 3/4 of my money and then I spent 1/5 of what was left.

a) What part of all my money did I spend?

b) What part of all my money do I have left?

Answers

Answers:

a) 4/5

b) 1/5

================================================

Let's say you start off with $100. If you spend 3/4 of that, then you spend 75 dollars (because 75/100 = 3/4). Think of it like 75 cents = 3 quarters. If you spend 75 dollars out of 100 total, then you have 100-75 = 25 dollars left after the first round of spending.

If you spend 1/5th of what is left, then you spend $5 on the second round leaving 25-5 = 20 dollars left at the end of the day.

Total up what you spend for both rounds: 75+5 = 80, which divides over the original amount 100 to get 80/100 = 8/10 = 4/5

If you had 20 dollars at he end of the day, out of 100 initially, then 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5 is the fraction of what you have left.

note how 4/5 and 1/5 add to 5/5 = 1.00 = 100%. This is because the amount you spend and the amount you have left over must add to 100% of all the money you started with

Answers

Final answer:

To rearrange the equation for a, subtract b/8c from both sides: a = 4x - b/8c.

Explanation:

To rearrange the equation for a, we start with the given equation 4x = a + b/8c. First, we isolate a by subtracting b/8c from both sides, giving 4x - b/8c = a. Therefore, the equation for a in terms of b, c, and x is a = 4x - b/8c.

Deena decides to mark down prices at her jewelry store 20% for a clearance sale. She must add 6% to the sale price for state sales tax. Suppose an item was originally priced at x dollars. Which expression does not represent the total sale price, including sales tax, of the item?

Answers

The expression that does not represent the total sale price, including sales tax, of the item is x * (1 - 0.20 + 0.06). Hence the correct option is c.

1. Calculate the sale price after the markdown:

Original price: x dollars

Markdown rate: 20%

Sale price after markdown: x * (1 - 0.20) = 0.8x dollars

2. Calculate the amount of sales tax:

Sales tax rate: 6%

Sales tax amount: 0.06 * 0.8x = 0.048x dollars

3. Calculate the correct total sale price:

Sale price after markdown + Sales tax amount = 0.8x + 0.048x = 0.848x dollars

4. Analyze the given expressions:

x * (1 - 0.20) + 0.06x: This expression correctly calculates the discount and adds the sales tax to the original price, so it represents the total sale price.

x * (1 - 0.20) + 0.06 * 0.8x: This expression also correctly calculates the discount and adds the sales tax to the discounted price, so it represents the total sale price.

x * (1 - 0.20 + 0.06): This expression combines the discount and sales tax into a single percentage (14%), but it applies this percentage to the original price (x) instead of the discounted price (0.8x). This leads to an overestimation of the final sale price, so it does not represent the correct total price.

0.8x + 0.048x: This expression correctly calculates the sum of the discounted price and the sales tax amount, so it represents the total sale price.

Therefore, the expression that does not represent the total sale price, including sales tax, of the item is x * (1 - 0.20 + 0.06). Hence the correct option is c.
