The points E, F, G and H all lie on the same line segment, in that order, such that the
ratio of EF: FG: GH is equal to 5 : 2:3. If EH = 60, find GH

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Hello,

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of EF: FG: GH is equal to 5 : 2:3.

[tex]\Longrightarrow \dfrac{EF}{5} =\dfrac{FG}{2}=\dfrac{GH}{3}=k\\\\EF=5*k\\FG=2*k\\GH=3*k\\\\\\EH=EF+FG+GH=5k+2k+3k=10k\\\\EH=10k=60 \Longrightarrow k=6\\\Longrightarrow GH=3*k=3*6=18(cm)[/tex]

Answer 2

The length of GH is 18 units.

What is a Line Segment?

A line segment is defined as a measured path between two places. Line segments can make up any polygon's sides because they have a set length.

The figure given below shows a line segment EH, where the length of line segment EH refers to the distance between its endpoints, E and H.

Given that the points E, F, G and H all lie on the same line segment

E______________F______________G_____________H

We have to determine GH

We have the ratio of EF: FG: GH is equal to 5 : 2 : 3.

Then EF/5 =  FG/2 = GH/3 = c

So EF = 5c, FG = 2c, and GH = 3c

Given that EH = 60,

⇒ EH = EF + FG + GH

⇒ 60 = 5c+ 2c+ 3c

⇒ 10c = 60

⇒ c = 60/10

⇒ c = 6

So GH = 3(6) = 18

Hence, the length of GH is 18 units.

Answers

Answer:

1400

Step-by-step explanation:

two ways to do this

1, find the area of the shaded place.

2, find the area of the whole thing, subtract by the area of the corners.

          this way is easier so its what ill do

whole box is 60*30=1800

3 corners are 10*10=100    15*10=150    and   15*10=150

1800-150-150-100 = 1400

or you could do it the first way

bigger box is 20*45=900

long box is 10*35=350

small box is 15*10=150

900+350+150=1400

In a certain town, 80% of all married men are working, and 75% of all married men are over 35 years old. Among working married men, 70% are over 35 years old. What proportion of non-working married men are over 35 years old?
answer: 95%
working is needed​

Answers

It helps to set up a two way table as shown below. Such tables compare 2 different variables. In this case, we're comparing the variables "working status" and "age".

Specifically, the working status separates the men into "working vs non-working". The age variable splits the men into groups of "35 or younger" and "over 35". Usually, but not always, each variable will take on two values.

Let's say this town had 1000 married men. 80% of this is 0.80*1000 = 800 to indicate there are 800 married working men. So we write this in the "total" column for the "working" row. This leaves 1000-800 = 200 nonworking married men, which will go right under the 800.

We're told that 75% of the married men are over 35, so 0.75*1000 = 750 married men are over 35. This goes in the "total" row for the "over 35" column. There are 1000-750 = 250 married men who are 35 and under.

As you can see, the stuff in the total column and the total row must add back to the grand total of 1000 married men overall.

--------------------------------

Another bit of info given is that "Among the working married men, 70% are over 35". We'll only focus on the "working" row. We have 800 total and 70% of this is 0.70*800 = 560 which is the number of working married men over 35. This leaves 800-560 = 240 married men who are not over 35.

At this point, we have 2 spots left in the table. Through guess and check, or using algebra, you should find that there are 190 non-working men over 35 and 10 non-working men who aren't over 35. Make sure that each row and column total checks out.

--------------------------------

By now, the table is fully filled out. See below.

Your teacher now asks "what proportion of non-working married men are over 35 years old?" which means we'll only focus on the "non-working" row. There are 200 men total here, and of this total, 190 are over 35.

So, 190/200 = 0.95 = 95% of the non-working married men are over 35.

Calculate the frequency of a wave with a speed of 130 m/s and a wavelength of 2.5

Answers

Answer:

  52 Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

We can divide the speed by the wavelength to find the number of waves propagated in one second:

  (130 m/s)/(2.5 m/wave) = 52 waves/s

The SI unit of frequency is the Hertz, equal to one cycle per second.

The frequency of this wave is 52 Hz.

_____

Additional comment

The use of the unit Hz to signify frequency was adopted in 1933, but did not replace the unit "cycles per second" (CPS) until a number of years later.

8. The distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately 9 x 10^7 miles. The distance from Earth to the Moon is approximately 2x10^5 miles. Approximately how many times the distance from the Earth to the Moon is the distance from Earth to the Sun?
A. 450
B. 222
C. 45
D. 18​

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times the distance, we divide the distance to the sun by the distance to the moon.

we get:

(9 * 10^7) / (2 * 10^5)

First, lets isolate and simplify the powers of 10.

(9 /2) * (10^7/10^5)

(9/2) * (10^2)=(9/2) * 100

Solve

9/2*100=4.5*100=450

If it takes 5 builders [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hours to build a wall, it will take 2 builders  [tex]8\frac{3}{4}[/tex] hours to build an identical wall

The time taken for 5 builders to build the wall = [tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hours

Let the breadth of the rectangle be x cm lenght of the rectangle = ( x + 5 ) cm

perimeter of the rectangle = 2 ( l + b )

4x + 10 = 40

4x = 40 10 ( transpose 10 to RHS )

x = 30/4 = 7.5 ( divide both sides by 4 )

lenght of the rectangle = x + 5 = 7.5 + 5 = 12.5 cm breadth of the rectangle = x = 7.5 cm

Answer:

x = 50 and y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The drawing shows several equal sides.  The triangles are a reflection of each other, so their angles will be the same.

Take the top and bottom angles:

2x + 5 and 3x - 45

They are equal, so:

2x + 5 = 3x - 45

-x = -50

x = 50

The angle y will have the same value as the one below it in the bottom triangle.  Add the angles in the lower triangle and since the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180, we can say:

y + (8y-15) + (3x-45) = 180

Rearrange:

y  = 180 - (8y-15) - (3x-45)

y  = 180 - 8y + 15 - 3x + 45

9y = 180 + 15 - 3x + 45

Since x = 50:

9y = 180 + 15 - 3*(50) + 45

9y = 180 + 15 - 150 + 45

9y = 90

y = 10
