28. Overhead Projectors Your teacher draws a circle on an overhead projector.
The projector then displays an enlargement of the circle on the wall. The circle
drawn has a radius of 3 inches. The circle on the wall has a diameter of 4 feet.
What is the scale factor of the enlargement?
a

Answers

Answer 1

A scale factor is a factor that can be used to either increase or decrease the size of a given figure. Therefore, the scale factor of the enlargement is [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex].

Scale drawing is a type of drawing that requires the use of a factor to either enlarge or reduce the size of a given figure. The factor required is called a scale factor. It can be expressed as:

scale factor = [tex]\frac{length of side of image}{length of side of object}[/tex]

In the given question, the radius of the circle drawn is 3 inches, while that on the wall has a diameter of 4 feet.

Thus;

diameter of circle = 2 * 3

                             = 6 inches

But;

1 feet = 12 inches

So that;

x = 6 inches

⇒ x = [tex]\frac{6}{12}[/tex]

      = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

x = 0.5 feet

Thus, the diameter of the circle is 0.5 feet.

So that;

scale factor = [tex]\frac{0.5 feet}{4 feet}[/tex]

                    = 0.125

scale factor = [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

The scale factor of the enlargement is [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex].

Which is bigger 12 cm or 102 mm

Answers

12 CM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On comparing the quantities 12 cm or 102 mm, 12 cm (120 mm) is greater than 102 mm.

To compare the sizes of 12 cm and 102 mm, both numbers should have the same unit.

Now, the conversion factor cm and mm is

1 cm = 10 mm

Then, using the conversion factor convert 12 cm to mm

12 cm = 12 x 10 mm

         = 120 mm

Now, compare 120 mm and 102 mm which gives 120 mm is greater.

Thus, 12 cm is greater than 102 mm.

Answers

Answer:

only D as the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct quadratic could not be B or C, because the negative sign in each indicates that the parabola opens down, which is not what we see here.

A is not appropriate either, because of the (x + 2)^2; that + sign tells us that the vertex lies 2 units to the left of the y-axis.

This leaves only D as the correct answer.

The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 5x -5. The perimeter of the triangle is 111. Find x

Answers

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = the sum of the three sides.

In an isosceles triangle there is a base and two equal legs

Perimeter = (x)  + (5x - 5) = (5x - 5)

            111 = 11x -10

           111 + 10 = 11x

            121 = 11x

            [tex]\frac{121}{11} =\frac{11x}{11}[/tex]

For the following Arithmetic Sequence, find the explicit form, and then find a 40

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 11 and d = a₂ - a₁ = 1 - 11 = - 10 , then

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 11 - 10(n - 1) = 11 - 10n + 10 = 21 - 10n ← explicit formula

Using the explicit formula to find a₄₀ , then

a₄₀ = 21 - 10(40) = 21 - 400 = - 379

Answer:

  CD = 32 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint divides the segment into congruent parts:

  CM = MD

  8(x -2) = 4(5x -16)

  2(x -2) = 5x -16 . . . . . . divide by 4

  2x -4 = 5x -16 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  12 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 16-2x to both sides

  4 = x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

Then the segment measures are ...

  CM = 8(x -2) = 8(4 -2) = 16

CD is twice that length. CD = 32 units.

_____

Additional comment

There are many ways to solve equations like this. The one usually recommended is to simplify it first. That generally means eliminating parentheses and collecting terms. Doing that would give ...

  8x -16 = 20x -64

Since there is a common factor of 4 on both sides, we can divide by that, making the numbers smaller and eliminating one set of parentheses.

Of course, the properties of equality require that whatever operation you perform on one side of the equal sign must also be done on the other side. So "divide by 4" means "divide by 4 on each side of the equal sign."

what slope is parallel to m = 3/4 If you want to make a difference in your community, one option to consider is running for office. Most cities and towns have many elected positions, from school board to city council to mayor, and any citizen over 18 years old can run. Once you're elected, you'll have the opportunity to help solve problems and make decisions to improve people's lives. Plus, you can consider running for higher offices, like state representative, governor, or even president! Of course, getting elected is usually not easy. Even local positions are highly competitive, and you'll need to be organized and hardworking to run a successful political campaign. Before you run, you should be prepared to raise money, give speeches, and have a well-thought-out plan about what you want to accomplish once elected. But the most important thing you can do is to get to know as many people as you can in your community, because your friends and neighbors may well become your greatest supporters. Which statement best summarizes two central ideas of the text? A. More people should consider getting involved with local politics; the best way to get ahead in local politics is to get to know your neighbors. B. If you want to be president, you should start by running in a local election; even a local election is not necessarily easy to win. C. Running for office is a great way to get involved with local affairs; a lot of work and detail goes into a successful election campaign. D.
