Using Proportions To Solve For Missing Sides. RST~YSZ, Find YZ.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  YZ = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportion involving the known and unknown sides is ...

  TR/ST = ZY/SZ

__

This proportion uses SZ, which is not shown on the diagram. The length of SZ can be found from ...

  SZ +ZT = ST . . . . . . . segment sum theorem

  SZ + 5 = 40 . . . . with given values

  SZ = 35 . . . . . subtract 5

__

So, the proportion with values filled in is ...

  (3x -7)/40 = (2x +2)/35

  7(3x -7) = 8(2x +2) . . . . . . . multiply by 280

  21x -49 = 16x +16 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  5x = 65 . . . . . . . . . . add 49 -16x

  x = 13 . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  YZ = 2x +2 = 2(13) +2

  YZ = 28

_____

Additional comment

RT = 3x -7 = 3(13) -7 = 32

Please Help!!!!!!!! In a recent year,24.7% of all registered doctors were female. If there were 43,200 female registered doctors that year, what was the total number of registered doctors?
Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:   174,899

This is one single number just a bit under 175 thousand. Delete the comma if needed.

========================================================

Work Shown:

x = number of total doctors

24.7% of x = number of female doctors

0.247x = 43200

x = 43200/(0.247)

x = 174,898.785425101 approximately

What is the lateral surface area of this rectangular prism?

A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape that has two at the top and bottom and four are lateral faces.

The lateral surface area of this rectangular prism = Perimeter x height

The Great Pyramid of Giza, has a square base with a length of 756 feet, and the distance from the middle of any base side to the top is 612 feet.

The first tower was a rectangular prism with a square base whose sides

were 208 feet long. The tower was 1,368 feet tall.

Total surface area = base area + (1/2 × perimeter × slant height)

Perimeter of base = 4 × 756 = 3024 feet

Slant height = 612 feet

Base area = 756² = 571536 feet²

The total surface area

[tex]= 571536 + (1/2 \times 3024 \times 612)\\ 1496880 feet^2[/tex]

The surface area of this rectangular prism = Perimeter x height

Perimeter of base = 4 × 208 = 832 feet

Area = [tex]832 \times 1368\\\\1138176[/tex]

In which situation is it BETTER to use a credit card instead of a debit card?
Jackson likes earning rewards on his purchases.
Jane prefers to shop locally rather than online.
Blake makes automatic transfers weekly to his checking account.
) Jena's tight budget requires thinking carefully about each purchase.

Answers

Answer: Choice A

Jackson likes earning rewards on his purchases.

=========================================================

Explanation:

Debit cards do not give out reward points for using them. Credit cards on the other hand do offer such a feature. So if Jackson wants reward points, he'll need to use a credit card. This is why choice A is the answer.

Choice B is ruled out because shopping locally could involve either type of card, or simply cash, depending the merchant's payment preferences. There's no incentive to use a credit card here.

Choice C is ruled out because a debit card is tied to a checking account. Blake making weekly transfers to this account seems to heavily imply he uses it a lot; therefore, he's likely using a debit card here.

Choice D is ruled out because Jena being careful with money would likely use a debit card. With debit cards, you use only the money in the checking account. No money is borrowed like with a credit card. This means there's no worry about going into debt when using a debit card.

An individual is selling tickets for a new movie that just came out. The first night the individual sold 45 Senior tickets and 92 Adult tickets. The second night, the individual sold 26 Senior tickets and 45 Adult tickets. Which night did the individual sell a higher ratio of Senior tickets to Adult tickets?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio senior to adult tickets on the first night :

45/92

the ratio on the second night :

26/45

which ratio is higher ? that means we have to determine which fraction is bigger.

the simplest and fastest way to compare them is to bring them to the same denominator (bottom part).

and the simplest way to do that is simply by multiplying the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the denominator of the other fraction :

45/92 × 45/45 = 2025 / 4140

26/45 × 92/92 = 2392 / 4140 (this is therefore bigger)

so, the ratio on the second night is higher.
