What is the value of x 78 53 42 72

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle is increased by 20%, resulting in triangle ABC. If the length of each side of

kompoz [17]

Answer: Area of ΔABC is 2.25x the area of ΔDEF.

Step-by-step explanation: Because equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides, area is calculated as

$A=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} a^{2}$

with a as side of the triangle.

Triangle ABC is 20% bigger than the original, which means its side (a₁) measures, compared to the original:

a₁ = 1.2a

Then, its area is

$A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}(1.2a)^{2}$

$A_{1}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4}1.44a^{2}$

Triangle DEF is 20% smaller than the original, which means its side is:

a₂ = 0.8a

So, area is

$A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} (0.8a)^{2}$

$A_{2}=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{4} 0.64a^{2}$

Now, comparing areas:

$\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}}= (\frac{\sqrt{3}.1.44a^{2} }{4})(\frac{4}{\sqrt{3}.0.64a^{2} } )$

$\frac{A_{1}}{A_{2}} =$ 2.25

The area of ΔABC is 2.25x greater than the area of ΔDEF.

6th grade math ! help me please :)

malfutka [58]

1. N + 2; n = 6: the answer is 8 because n=6 so we sub n with that... and we get 6+2 and that’s 8.

2.5f; where f=4: the answer is 20 because when a variable is directly next to a number it is multiplied by that number so we will replace f with 4 and our equation is now 5(4) or 5•4 and both are equivalent to 20.

3. 7b-2; where b=5: the answer is 33 because 7 multiplied by 5(b) minus 2= 7(5)-2 or 7•5-2= 33 because you will multiply 7 by 5 and get 33 then you will subtract by 2 and get 33.

Hope this helps!!!

What it means to have a correlation in a scatterplot

-BARSIC- [3]

Scatter plots are similar to line graphs in that they use horizontal and vertical axes to plot data points. However, they have a very specific purpose. Scatter plots show how much one variable is affected by another. The relationship between two variables is called their correlation .
