A sheet of standard-size copy paper measures 8.5 in. by 11 in. If a ream (500 sheets) of this paper has a volume of 187(to the third power) in. , how thick is the ream.

I need an explanation on how to do it please.

Answers

Answer:  2 inches

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

Explanation:

The area of any given sheet of paper is 8.5*11 = 93.5 square inches.

Divide the volume over this area to get the height of the stack

187/(93.5) = 2

The stack is 2 inches tall.

Extra info: The thickness of each piece of paper is 2/500 = 0.004 of an inch which approximates to about 0.1016 mm.

In this diagram, BAC~EDF. If the area of BAC=15 in2, what is the area of EDF? 4, 5.
Enter a decimal rounded to the tenths.

Answers

Answer:

9.6 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that ΔBAC is similar to ΔEDF, and that the area of ΔBAC is 15 inches. And we want to determine the area of ΔDEF.

First, find the scale factor k from ΔBAC to ΔDEF:

[tex]\displaystyle 5 k = 4[/tex]

Solve for the scale factor k:

[tex]\displaystyle k = \frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Recall that to scale areas, we square the scale factor.

In other words, since the scale factor for sides from ΔBAC to ΔDEF is 4/5, the scale factor for its area will be (4/5)² or 16/25.

Hence, the area of ΔEDF is:

[tex]\displaystyle \Delta EDF = \frac{16}{25}\left(15\right) = 9.6\text{ in}^2[/tex]

In conclusion, the area of ΔEDF is 9.6 square inches.

if A=x² +xy-6, B=6xy-2x² +1 and C= 3x² +7 -3xy,find :(i) A+B+C​ (ii)A-B+C (iii)A+B-C​

Answers

Answer:

I)

[tex]\displaystyle A + B + C = 2x^2 + 4xy + 2[/tex]

II)

[tex]\displaystyle A - B + C = 6x^2 -8xy[/tex]

III)

[tex]\displaystyle A + B - C= -4x^2 + 10xy -12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the three equations:

[tex]\displaystyle A = x^2 + xy -6,\, B = 6xy - 2x^2 +1 \text{ and } C = 3x^2 + 7 -3xy[/tex]

I)

We want to find:

[tex]\displaystyle A + B + C[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + xy - 6) + (6xy -2x^2 + 1) + (3x^2 + 7 -3xy)[/tex]

Rewrite:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + 3x^2 - 2x^2) + (xy + 6xy - 3xy) + (-6 + 1 + 7)[/tex]

And combine like terms. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle A + B + C = 2x^2 + 4xy + 2[/tex]

II)

We want to find:

[tex]\displaystyle A - B + C[/tex]

Likewise, substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + xy - 6) - (6xy - 2x^2 + 1) + (3x^2 + 7 - 3xy)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + xy - 6) + (-6xy +2x^2 - 1) + (3x^2 + 7 - 3xy)[/tex]

Rewrite:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + 2x^2 +3x^2) + (xy - 6xy -3xy) + (-6 -1 + 7 )[/tex]

And combine like terms. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle A - B + C = 6x^2 -8xy[/tex]

III)

We want to find:

[tex]\displaystyle A + B - C[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + xy - 6) + (6xy - 2x^2 + 1) - (3x^2 + 7 - 3xy)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 + xy - 6) + (6xy - 2x^2 + 1) + (-3x^2 - 7 + 3xy)[/tex]

Rewrite:

[tex]\displaystyle = (x^2 - 2x^2 - 3x^2) + (xy +6xy +3xy) + (-6 +1 - 7)[/tex]

And combine like terms. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle A + B - C= -4x^2 + 10xy -12[/tex]

the size of an interior angle of a rectangular polygon is(3x)⁹ while the exterior angle is (X-20)⁰.find the number of side of the polygen.

Answers

Answer:

12 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the exterior angle and the interior angle = 180° , then

3x + x - 20 = 180

4x - 20 = 180 ( add 20 to both sides )

4x = 200 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 50

Then

exterior angle = x - 20 = 50 - 20 = 30°

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon = 360°

The number of sides n is sum divided by 1 exterior angle , that is

n = 360° ÷ 30° = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = -5/3

Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

With the new slope, use the slope intercept form and the point to calculate the intercept: y = mx + b

the new slope = 3/5

y = 3/5 x + b

8 = -9/5 +b

b = 40/5 + 9/5 = 49/5

y=3/5x + 49/5

Answers

The equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (-2, 4) is y = [tex]-\frac{5}{x} x-1[/tex]

Parallel lines

Parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore, using slope intercept form.

y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Therefore,

5x + 2y = 12

2y = -5x + 12

[tex]y = -\frac{5}{2} x+12[/tex]

The slope of the line is [tex]-\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Base on parallelism, for the line that passes through (-2, 4)

y = mx + b

4 = [tex]-\frac{5}{2} (-2)+b[/tex]

b = -1

Therefore,
