<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: B is the correct answer.

The value of y is:

$y=\sqrt{55}$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

We know that when a altitude is drawn from the vertex of a right angled triangle to the hypotenuse of the triangle then the length of the altitude is the geometric mean of the length of two segments of the hypotenuse.

Here by looking at the figure we have:

The altitude is denoted by y.

and the two segments of the hypotenuse have length 5 and 11.

Hence, we have:

$y=\sqrt{5\times 11}\\\\i.e.\\\\y=\sqrt{55}$

How are proptions and percents the same

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1 would be 10%, but a proportion is a ratio, as in this case 10/100 = 1/10= . 1, but 10% is not a ratio in of itself, but is a proportion of 100. % means OF one hundred. A proportion is a number TO another number.

(1 point) Newton's law of cooling states that the temperature of an object changes at a rate proportional to the difference betw

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

a. $\frac{dT}{dt}=k(T-Tm); T(0)=190$

b. $C_{0}=122$

c. $k=-0.00259$

d. $t=153.39838\\$ minutos

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Newton's law of cooling states that the speed with which a body is cooled is proportional to the difference between its temperature and that of the medium in which it is found. Then, the initial value problem is given by:

$Tm=68$

$\frac{dT}{dt}=k(T-Tm); T(0)=190$

b. The differential equation obtained is a differential equation of separable variables:

$\frac{dT}{T-Tm}=kdt\\\\\int {\frac{dT}{T-Tm}}=\int{kdt}\\\\Ln|T-Tm|=kt+C\\\\T(t)=C_{0}e^{kt}+Tm=C_{0}e^{kt}+68\\\\T(0)=C_{0}e^{k(0)}+68=190\\\\C_{0}=122$

c. After 33 minutes of serving the coffee has cooled to 180°:

$T(33)=122e^{33k}+68=180\\\\e^{33k}=\frac{112}{122}\\\\33k=Ln(\frac{112}{122})\\\\k=-0.00259$

$150=122e^{-0.00259t}+68\\\\Ln(\frac{150-68}{122})=-0.00259t\\\\t=153.39838\\\\$

Type an equation that can be used to solve for the missing angles. DO NOT SOLVE.

muminat

Answer:

x°+2x°+(x-24)°=180°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of of the interior angles of all triangles add up to 180°

Adding x°, 2x°, and (x-24)° <em>will</em> equal 180

Therefore, an equation that can be used to solve for the missing angles is: x°+2x°+(x-24)°=180°

What is the relationship between the values of the 4 in this number 4438

galben [10]

They do not mean the same thing:
4 in 4000 stands for 4 thousands
4 in 400 stands for 4 hundreds.
You can see, that first '4' means 4 000, while the second one means 400, so the first one is 10 times greater.
