The scale factor of triangle PQR to triangle STU is 3/2

Scale factors are used to increase or decrease image. The situation of increment is usually called magnifying.

Taking a point of reference say PR and SU

PR = 8

Molly would need 43 feet of fencing to fence the triangular area.

What is Pythagorean theorem?

Pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares on the legs of a right triangle is equal to the square on the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle).

According to the given question:

We can see that the area is in the form of a right-angled triangle. Since only two sides of the triangle is given, we could utilize Pythagoras theorem to our advantage to find out the third side.

In Δ ABC

AB² (base) + AC² (perpendicular) = BC² (hypotenuse)

Substituting the values of AB as 10 feet and BC as 18 feet

AC²= BC²- AB ²

∴AC²= 224  

∴AC= 14.96 cm

Amount of fence required by molly would equal perimeter of the area.

⇒The perimeter of the area would equal AB+BC+AC

⇒Summing up the values of AB, AC and BC

Perimeter= 10+14.96+18= 42.96 feet which is about 43 feet

Hence, Molly would require 43 feet of fencing.

The Scooter Company's total profit function is represented by -2x²+250x-2000.

Total profit of a company is the difference between total revenue and total cost.

The profit or gain is equal to the selling price minus the cost price. Loss is equal to the cost price minus the selling price.

Company earns a total revenue that can be determined by the function R(x) = 400x - 2x²

Each scooter cost $150 to produce, and the company has a fixed cost of $2,000.

Variable cost = Cost of each scooter × Number of scooter sold

Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost

= 2000 + (150×x)

Cost, C(x) = 2000 + 150x

Revenue, R(x) = 400x - 2x²

Total profit = Revenue - Cost

= 400x-2x²-(2000 + 150x)

= 400x-2x²-2000-150x

= -2x²+250x-2000

Therefore, the Scooter Company's total profit function is represented by -2x²+250x-2000.

Dean will take a total time of 3 hours and 10 minutes to complete the race and will beat his personal best time

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the personal best time of Dean be = A

Now , the value of A = 3 hours 14 minutes 45 seconds

And ,

The time taken by Dean to complete 1 km = 9 minutes 30 seconds

Now , the total distance of the race lap = 20 km

So , the equation will be

Total time taken by Dean to complete 20 km race B = 20 x time taken by Dean to complete 1 km

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Total time taken by Dean to complete 20 km race = 20 x 9 minutes 30 seconds

Total time taken by Dean to complete 20 km race = 20 x 9 minutes + 20 x 30 seconds

Total time taken by Dean to complete 20 km race = 180 minutes + 600 seconds

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

180 minutes = 3 hours

600 seconds = 10 minutes

So , the equation is

Total time taken by Dean to complete 20 km race B = 3 hours 10 minutes

So , the value of B < value of A

Therefore , the Dean will beat his personal best time and the race is completed in 3 hours 10 minutes

Hence , Dean will take a total time of 3 hours and 10 minutes to complete the race and will beat his personal best time

The percent increase is 56%

The percent increase if the airline charges an additional $50 baggage fee with the new ticket price is 76%

The formula for determining percent increase is expressed as;

Percent increase = x₂ - x₁/x₁  × 100/ 1

Where;

Now, substitute the values, we have;

Percent increase = $320 - $210/$210  × 100/ 1

Find the difference

Percent increase = $110/$210  × 100/ 1

Percent increase = 0. 52  × 100/ 1

Multiply through

Percent increase = 52%

If there is an increase of $50

Percent increase = $370-210/210 × 100/ 1

Answer:

the daily fee is 37 and the mileage charge is .24 per mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

256 = 450x + 4b

159 = 200x + 3b

Multiple the top equations by -3 all the way through the bottom equations by 4 all the way  through then add the equation together.

-768 = -1350x -12b

636 = 800x + 12b

-132 = -550x  Divide both sides by -550

.24 = x  This is the charge per mile.

Plug in .24 for x into either of the original 2 equations to solve for b which is the daily fee.

256 = 450(.24) = 4b

256 = 108 + 4b  Subtract 108 from both sides

148 = 4b  Divide both sides by 4

37 = b  This is the daily fee.

The system of equations to model is s=220 and a=241 when 461 tickets for a school performance were sold. Adult tickets are $4 and cost $3 for students.

Given that,

461 tickets for a school performance were sold. Adult tickets are $4 and cost $3 for students. Sales of tickets totaled $1624.

We have to find the system of equations to model.

We know that,

We get,

a + s = 461

s = 461 -a

The student tickets sold = s × 3   = 3 × (461-a)

The adult tix sold =  4 a              

Summed they total 1624

We get system of equations as

s = 461-a

3 (461-a) + 4a = 1624

1383 -3a +4a = 1624

a = 241      

Then  

s = 461 -a = 220

Therefore, The system of equations to model is s=220 and a=241 when 461 tickets for a school performance were sold. Adult tickets are $4 and cost $3 for students.

An apple pie requires 7 apples and an apple tart requires 4 apples

To set up this problem, we can let p represent the number of apples needed for one pie and t represents the number of apples needed for one tart.

We can then set up the following system of equations to represent the information given in the problem:

2p + 6t = 38

2p + 8t = 46

To solve this system, we can subtract the first equation from the second to eliminate the p terms:

2p + 8t - 2p - 6t = 46 - 38

2t = 8

t = 4

Substituting this value back into the first equation, we get:

2p + 6(4) = 38

Nate Belloir earns a weekly commission of 2. 5% on sales of $50,000 or less and 3. 0% on sales in excess of $50,000. One week Nate's commission was $2,135.

Let x be the total sales.

2135 = 2.5 % * 50000 + 3 % (x - 50000 )

= 2.5 * 50000 / 100 + 3/100 ( x - 50000 )

1235 = 2.5 * 500 + 0.03x - 0.03 * 50000

geologists unearth a sample of zircon that appears to be a closed system. they find 0.686 micro gram of 206 Pb for 1.000 micro gram of 238U present. approximately  3.7973 × 10⁹ years old is the sample.

The reciprocal of the time period during which the number of atoms in the radioactive element drops to almost A. 50% of its initial number is the decay constant.

According to the radioactive decay law, a nucleus's likelihood of decaying is a constant that is independent of time.

t1/2 of U₂₃₈ is 4.5 × 10⁹ years

moles of U₂₃₈ : (1 × 10⁻⁶ / 238) moles

moles of Pb₂₀₆ : (0.686 × 10⁻⁶ / 206) moles

Now, U₂₃₈ → Pb₂₀₆

As Pb₂₀₆ comes from U₂₃₈ hence,

moles of  U₂₃₈ decayed = moles of  Pb₂₀₆

                                        = (0.686 × 10⁻⁶ / 206) moles

Therefore, initial moles of U₂₃₈:

N₀ = [(1 × 10⁻⁶ / 238) + (0.686 × 10⁻⁶ / 206)] moles

and N = (1 × 10⁻⁶ / 238) moles

Now, λ (decay constant) = 0.693 / (t1/2)

                                        = 0.693 / ( 4.5 × 10⁹ years)

So,

t = 2.303 / λ × log (N₀ / N)

t = 2.303 / [0.693 / ( 4.5 × 10⁹ years)] × log [1 + (0.686/206)/(1/238)]

t = 14.95 × 10⁹ × 0.254

t = 3.7973 × 10⁹ years.

Thus, the sample is: 3.7973 × 10⁹ years old.

Mathematically, the standard equation of the directrix lines for any parabola is given by:

y = a(x - h)² + 2.

Where:

Since the directrix is horizontal, the axis of symmetry would be vertical. Therefore, the equation of this parabola would be modeled by this standard mathematical expression;

(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)

Where:

h = 1

In Mathematics, the focus for either a right or left parabola is modeled by this mathematical expression (h + p, k) while its directrix is modeled by this mathematical expression x = h - p;

k + p = 6

k - p = 1

Solving the set of linear equations simultaneously, we have:

2k = 7

k = 7/2

For the value of p, we have;

p = 6 - k

p = 6 - 7/2

p = 5/2

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

(x - 1)² = 4(5/2)(y - 7/2)

x² - 2x + 1 = 10(y - 7/2)

x² - 2x + 1 = 10y - 35

10y = x² - 2x + 1 + 35

10y = x² - 2x + 36
