What are arithmetical operations?

The four fundamental operations of arithmetic are addition, subtract, multiply, and division of two or more numbers. Included in them is the study of integers, especially the order of operations, which is important for all other aspects of mathematics, notably algebra, information management, and geometry.

From the data in the question,

15-foot statue = 20-foot shadow

x-foot man's height = 4-foot long shadow

20x = 60

x = 60/20

x = 3 foot.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 120 centimeters. The base is 3 times the height. What are the dimensions of the rectangle? a. h = 9cm, b = 18 cm c. h = 15 cm, b = 45 cm b. h = 19 cm, b = 57 cm d. h = 10 cm, b = 15 cm

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Height = 15[/tex]

[tex]Base = 45[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Rectangle

[tex]Perimeter = 120cm[/tex]

[tex]Base = 3 * Height[/tex]

Required

Determine the dimensions

The perimeter of a rectangle is:

[tex]Perimeter = 2 * (Base + Height)[/tex]

Substitute 120 for Perimeter

[tex]120 = 2 * (Base + Height)[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]60 = Base + Height[/tex]

Substitute 3 * Height for Base

[tex]60 = 3 * Height + Height[/tex]

[tex]60 = 3Height + Height[/tex]

[tex]60 = 4Height[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex]15 = Height[/tex]

[tex]Height = 15[/tex]

Substitute 15 for Height in [tex]Base = 3 * Height[/tex]

[tex]Base = 3 * 15[/tex]

[tex]Base = 45[/tex]

can someone help me out?

Answers

First you have to solve for x. X=32.
5*32-12=148
148=(3y-8).
y=52

Answer:

y is equal to nine and two thirds, or 9.666...

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we first need to know the value of x.  We can see though that x + (x - 12) is equal to 180 degrees, so:

x + 5x - 12 = 180

6x = 192

x = 32

Now that we have x, we can use the same rule to solve for y:

3y - 8 = x

3y - 8 = 32

3y = 40

y = 40 / 3

So y = 40/3, or 9 and 2/3

Bonus:

I almost wonder if the question was printed incorrectly, as the answer would have been a nice tidy integer if the other corner was 3y + 8 instead of 3y - 8.

If that were the case we'd have:

3y + 8 = 32

3y = 24

y = 8

A nice clean answer

To be clear, this last bit is NOT the correct answer, just an observation. If the book tells you that eight is the answer, then the question is misprinted.

A rectangular mat has an area of 7/12 in2. The length of the mat is 5/6 in. What is the width of the mat

Answers

The width of the mat with the given area and length is 7/10 in.

What is the width of the mat?

The area of a rectangle is expressed as;

A = l × w

Where l is length and w is width.

Given the data in the question;

Area A = 7/12 in²Length l = 5/6 inWidth w = ?

We plug our given values into the above equation and solve for w.

A = l × w

7/12 = 5/6 × w

w = 7/12 ÷ 5/6

w = 7/12 ÷ 6/5

w = 42/60

w = 7/10 in

Therefore, the width of the mat with the given area and length is 7/10 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the triangle I drew (assuming n is across from ∠N), we can conclude that ∠O = 180-97-32 = 51 as the angles in a triangle add up to 180.

Using the law of sines, we can conclude that

Plugging our values in, we get

[tex]\frac{o}{0.78} = \frac{800}{0.53}[/tex]

does anyone know the values of x and y? my teacher didn’t go over this type of problem

Answers

Answer:

x = 80

y = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to figure out how many degrees there are in total in the inside of the polygon. There are 7 sides, so now let's use the formula to find out the total degrees.

(n - 2) * 180

"n" is the amount of sides.

(7 - 2) * 180 =

5 * 180 =

900

The total degrees is 900.

Now, we have to add all the sides in the inside to form an equation to solve for y.

y + 135 + 140 + 150 + 120 + 135 + 120 = 900

y + 800 = 900

y + 800 - 800 = 900 - 800

y = 100

Now, we know that x and y are supplementary angles. So the sum of x and y is 180. We can use that to create an equation to solve for x!

x + y = 180

x + 100 = 180

x + 100 - 100 = 180 - 100

x = 80

Therefore, x = 80 and y = 100

Answers

Answer: Consistent (and independent)

Step-by-step explanation:

The meaning of the options are:

Consistent (and independent): There is only one point of intersection between the two lines.

Inconsistent: The lines never touch each other, this only can happen when the lines are parallel, so they have the same slope but a different y-intercept.

Equivalent (also called consistent and dependent): This happens when both lines are the same line, so they intersect in an infinite number of points.

In the graph, we can see that the lines intersect in only one point, then we can conclude that the system is consistent.

Consistent

Maddie's bedroom is rectangular. The length of one wall of Maddie's bedroom is 4 meters. The length from one corner of the bedroom to the diagonally opposite corner is 5 meters. What is the length of the other wall?

Answers

Answer:

The length of other wall is 3 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of one wall = 4 meters

Length of diagonal from one corner to opposite corner = 5 meters

As the room is rectangular, the diagonal will form a right angled triangle.

The diagonal will be the hypotenuse.

Using pythagorean theorem;

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

Here,

a = 4 and c = 5

[tex](4)^2+b^2=(5)^2\\16+b^2=25\\b^2=25-16\\b^2=9[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides

[tex]\sqrt{b^2}=\sqrt{9}[/tex]

b = 3 meters

Hence,

The length of other wall is 3 meters.
