27. How wide is the oil spill?
CLEAR ALL
The two triangles given in the diagram are said to be similar, so that their sides can be compared. Therefore, the width of the oil spill is 50 km.
A triangle is a figure with three sides. Two or more triangles are said to be similar if and only if their sides have relating figures. Thus, to determine the width of the oil spill, the two given triangles are to be compared. This would result to:
[tex]\frac{20}{40}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{25}{x}[/tex]
x = [tex]\frac{40*25}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1000}{20}[/tex]
= 50
x = 50 km
Therefore the width of the oil spill is 50 km.

100 + 100 X (58 divided by 1000)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] = 100 + 100 \times ( \frac{58}{1000} ) \\ = 100 + 5.8 \\ = 105.8 \: ans.[/tex]
100+100X(58 divided by 1000) =105.8
Step-by-step explanation:
100+100X(58 divided by 1000)

=105.8
There is no smallest positive rational number because, if there were, then it could be divided by two to get a smaller one. EXPLAINED
Answer:
Since a/2⁽ⁿ ⁺ ¹⁾b < a/2ⁿb, we cannot find a smallest positive rational number because there would always be a number smaller than that number if it were divided by half.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a/b be the rational number in its simplest form. If we divide a/b by 2, we get another rational number a/2b. a/2b < a/b. If we divide a/2b we have a/2b ÷ 2 = a/4b = a/2²b. So, for a given rational number a/b divided by 2, n times, we have our new number c = a/2ⁿb where n ≥ 1
Since [tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{a}{2^{n}b }[/tex] = a/(2^∞)b = a/b × 1/∞ = a/b × 0 = 0, the sequence converges.
Now for each successive division by 2, a/2⁽ⁿ ⁺ ¹⁾b < a/2ⁿb and
a/2⁽ⁿ ⁺ ¹⁾b/a/2ⁿb = 1/2, so the next number is always half the previous number.
So, we cannot find a smallest positive rational number because there would always be a number smaller than that number if it were divided by half.

Answer:
1) Δy = 9, Δx = -6, slope = Δy/Δx = -3/2
2) Δy = 7, Δx = -3, slope = Δy/Δx = -7-/3
3) Δy = -6, Δx = 6, slope = Δy/Δx = -1
4) Δy = 5, Δx = 8, slope = Δy/Δx = 5/8
5) Δy = 3, Δx = 11, slope = Δy/Δx = 3/11
6) Δy = 7, Δx = 6, slope = Δy/Δx = 7/6
7) Δy = 2, Δx = -5, slope = Δy/Δx = -2/5
8) Δy = 8, Δx = 4, slope = Δy/Δx = 2

The rates of change of two data sets can be compared by finding:
the initial values.
ООО
the slope of each trend line.
how close the points are to the line.
the y-intercepts.
Answer:
the slope of each trend line
Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change of the variables (dependent and independent) in the linear model is given by the slope or gradient of the regression model usually represented as :
y = bx + c ; where b is the slope and gives the change in y per change in the value of x.
Hence, when intending to find the rate of change of different Datasets, the slope of the trend line corresponding to each dataset is compared in other to determine the identify the differences in the rate of change of each dataset.

Some steps to construct an angle MNT congruent to angle PQR are listed below.
Step 1: Use a compass to draw an arc from point Q that intersects the side PQ at point A and the side QR at point B.
Step 2: Draw a segment NT, and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point N that intersects the segment NT at a point X.
Step 3:
Step 4: Join points N and Y using a straightedge.
Which statement describes step 3 correctly?
Adjust the width of the compass to AB, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.
Adjust the width of the compass to AQ, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.
Adjust the width of the compass to BQ, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.

4 long green tiles and 4 square red tiles = 2 long red tiles and 8 square green tiles.
What is the value of x when solving the equation 4 x + (negative 4) = negative 2 x + 8 using the algebra tiles?
x = negative 4
x = negative 2
x = 2
x = 4
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x + (negative 4) = negative 2 x + 8
4x + (-4) = - 2x + 8
4x - 4 = - 2x + 8
4x + 2x = 8 + 4
