Hi there!
In order to find the value of N, we'll need to set the value of the angle containing the variable n equal to 90. This is because in perpendicular lines, all angles are equal to 90.
WORK:
5n - 25 = 90
5n = 115
n = 23
Since there are a total of 4,200 residents and the question is asking for the amount in the south region, take the distribution number from the chart, 0.16, and multiply it by 4,200.
4200 ×.16 = 672
672 residents
Answer:
(11/20 by 19/40 by 1/40) OR (0.55 by 0.475 by 0.025)
Step-by-step explanation:
To scale down a set of measurements, simply multiply the original measurement by the factors you're scaling it by. For example, take the first measurement of 5 1/2. To scale this down, I turned the value into an improper fraction (11/2) to make the multiplication process easier. Then, I multiplied 11/2 by the factor of 1/10.
After that, I got 11/20, which is the new first measurement.
Answer:
Width = 9 yds
Length = 28 yds
Step-by-step explanation:
Width = x
Length = 2x + 10
Area is 252 yd²
x(2x + 10) = 252
2x² + 10x - 252 = 0
2 (x + 14) (x - 9) = 0
(x + 14) (x - 9) = 0
x = - 14 or x = 9
Width = 9 yds
Length = 2x9 + 10 = 28 yds
