A hot-air balloon has a 14-foot diameter that is being deflated at a rate of 0.25 feet per minute.


How many minutes, x, will it take before the balloon has shrunk to a diameter of 8 feet?



CLEAR CHECK

Write the equation that represents the situation.




x =

Solve for the time taken for the balloon to shrink to a diameter of 8 feet.

It will take

minutes.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

24 min

Step-by-step explanation:

14-8 is 6 so you need to shrink it 6 feet until it has a daimiter of 8.

6 divided by .25 is 24 so you have your answer

14-.25x=8

Answer 2

The equation is 14 - 0.25x = 8.

It will take 24 minutes for the balloon to shrink.

What is equation?

An equation is a mathematical statement that is made up of two expressions connected by an equal sign.

Given:

A hot-air balloon has a 14-foot diameter.

Rate of 0.25 feet per minute.

Now, equation to represent the situation is

14 - 0.25x = 8

On further solving

6= 0.25x

x= 6/0.25

x= 24

Hence, it will take 24 minutes for the balloon to shrink.

A = 4750*(1+0.10/2)^(2*10)

A = 12,603.16

That represents the account balance after 10 years. To find the interest only, subtract off the deposit amount.

Answer:

X=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Both are equal angles( the little 2 arrows prove that) so we set up the equation like this

75=11x-2

We need to isolate x to solve for it so we add 2 to both side since it's the opposite of subtraction.

our equation will then look like this

77=11x

last but not least, we divide 11 to both sides since it's the opposite of multiplication which 11 and X are doing

the answer is 7

Rationalize the denominator!
Question in the picture

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{10}{9+\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

To rationalise the denominator multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.

the conjugate of 9 + [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex] is 9 - [tex]\sqrt{7}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{10(9-\sqrt{7}) }{(9+\sqrt{7})(9-\sqrt{7}) }[/tex] ← expand denominator using FOIL

= [tex]\frac{90-10\sqrt{7} }{81-7}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{90-10\sqrt{7} }{74}[/tex] ( divide terms on numerator/ denominator by 2 )

= [tex]\frac{45-5\sqrt{7} }{37}[/tex] → A

Answer:

A[tex]\frac{45-5\sqrt7}{37}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy. First let's multiply numerator and denominator by [tex]9-\sqrt7[/tex] since we will create a difference of squares to get rid of the root, then start doing the calculations

[tex]\frac{10(9-\sqrt7)}{(9+sqrt7)(9-\sqrt7)}=\frac{10(9-\sqrt7)}{81-7} = \frac{10(9-\sqrt7)}{74} =\\\frac{5(9-\sqrt7)}{37}=\frac{45-5\sqrt7}{37}[/tex]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Important info given:

two triangles. A triangle has a base A and height 8 cm.Another triangle has a base of 3 cm and height of 4 cm.

Step 1: We need to determine the length of side A.

Since, these two triangles are similar, let us use the property of similarity of triangles to determine the length of side A.

Therefore we have:

[tex]\frac{8}{4} = \frac{a}{3}[/tex]

Step 2: Multiplying by 3, and then we have:

[tex]\frac{8*3}{4}=a[/tex]

[tex]\frac{24}{4}=a[/tex]

Step 3: Simplify, and we get:

6 = a

Hence, the length of side A is 6 cm.
