Suppose △ABC≅△XYZ, m∠A=50°, and m∠Y=70°.
What is m∠C?
50º
60º
70º
110º
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the triangles are congruent, that means the angles are the same measurement
<A = <X
<B = <Y
<C = <Z
We know A = 50 so X = 50
We know <Y = 70 so < B = 70
The three angles of a triangle add to 180
<A + <B + <C = 180
Substituting into the equation
50 + 70 + <C = 180
Combining like terms
120 + <C =180
Subtracting 120 from each side
120-120 +<C =180-120
<C = 60
Answer:
∠C = 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding angles are congruent, thus
∠B = ∠Y = 70°
The sum of the 3 angles in ΔABC = 180°
∠C = 180° - (70 + 50)° = 180° - 120° = 60°
Given y = log3(x + 4), what is the range?
Answer:
The range is all real numbers.
The domain is all reals numbers that are greater than -4.
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]y=\log_3(x+4)[/tex] only exists when [tex]x+4[/tex] is positive.
You can take the log of a negative or 0 number.
So [tex]x+4>0[/tex] implies [tex]x>-4[/tex]. (I just subtract 4 on both sides.)
So the domain is x>-4. You should see this also when you graph the curve that the curve only exist to the right of -4.
Now the range. The range is where the curve exist for the y-values.
The equivalent exponent form of [tex]y=\log_3(x+4)[/tex] is [tex]3^{y}=x+4[/tex]
We can solve this for x be subtract 4 on both sides:
[tex]x=3^y-4[/tex]
Now here y can be anything; there are no restrictions on the exponent.
Also if you look at the graph of [tex]y=\log_3(x+4)[/tex] you should see every y getting hit by the curve (look down to up; use the y-axis as a guide).
Let's think about the inverse I found above a little more (I'm going to swap x and y).
[tex]y=3^x-4[/tex].
If we look at the domain and range of this we can just swap it to get the domain and range of [tex]y=\log_3(x+4)[/tex].
[tex]y=3^x-4[/tex] is an exponential function of 3^x that has been moved down 4 units.
The range since it has been moved down 4 units is [tex](-4,\infty)[/tex].
The domain of an exponential function is all real numbers. There are no restrictions on what you can plug in for x.
So swapping these to find the domain and range of [tex]y=\log_3(x+4)[/tex]:
Domain: [tex](-4,\infty)[/tex]
Range : [tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]
Answer: For Edg is x> -4

A large college wishes to determine the average SAT scores for students who apply from New York. They surveyed 105 students from New York and discovered a mean SAT score of 1519. Which of the statements below represent the parameter and the statistic, respectively, of the survey?
I. The mean SAT score of all students from New York
II. The mean SAT score of 105 students from New York
III. The 105 students who apply to the college from New York
IV. All students who apply to the college from New York
Statements I and IV
Statements II and III
Statements I and II
Statements II and IV
Answer:
Statements I and II
Step-by-step explanation:
In Statistics, parameter is any numerical value that characterizes a population while statistics are numerical values that characterizes a sample from a given population.
Statistics are most often used to estimate the population parameters
For example the sample mean is a statistic and the population mean is a paranmeter
The mean SAT score of all students from New York is the parameter.
The mean SAT score of 105 students from New York is called the statistic.

Step-by-step explanation:
1. Identify the vertex and the y-intercept of the graph of the function y=-2(x+ 2)+2.
Answer:
Please let me know if your quadratic is [tex]y=-2(x+2)^2+2[/tex].
And if so your vertex is (-2,2) and your y-intercept is (0,-6)
Step-by-step explanation:
It says vertex so I'm thinking you meant [tex]y=-2(x+2)^2+2[/tex]. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
The vertex form of a quadratic is [tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]. It is called that because it tells you the vertex (h,k).
So if you compare the two forms you should see -h=2 while k=2.
-h=2 implies h=-2.
So the vertex is (h,k)=(-2,2).
To find the y-intercept, set x=0 and find y.
[tex]y=-2(0+2)^2+2[/tex]
[tex]y=-2(2)^2+2[/tex]
[tex]y=-2(4)+2[/tex]
[tex]y=-8+2[/tex]
[tex]y=-6[/tex]
So the y-intercept is (0,-6).

How do I find the value of the unknown variable
6x + 2 + 40 = 90
Let x = the unknown
6x + 42 = 90
6x = 90 - 42
6x = 48
x = 48/6
x = 8
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 40 + (6x+2) +90 = 180 since the three angles form a straight line
40 + (6x+2) +90 = 180
Combine like terms
132 + 6x = 180
Subtract 132 from each side
132-132 +6x= 180-132
6x = 48
Divide each side by 6
6x/6 = 48/6
x = 8
Find the solution to the following system of equations using the ADDITION method. 3x + 2y = 7 -3x + 3y = 8
Answer:
x = 1/3 and y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given the system of equations
3x + 2y = 7 ----(1)
-3x + 3y = 8 ----(2)
To find the solution
Add eq(1) and eq (2) we get,
3x + 2y = 7 ----(1)
-3x + 3y = 8 ----(2)
0 + 5y = 15
y = 15/5 = 3
Substitute the value of y in eq(1)
3x + 2y = 7 ----(1)
3x + 2*3 = 7
3x + 6 = 7
3x = 7 - 6 = 1
x = 1/3
Therefore
x = 1/3 and y = 3
Which relation describes a function?
A) {(0, 0), (0, 2), (2, 0), (2, 2)}
B) {(−2, −3), (−3, −2), (2, 3), (3, 2)}
C) {(2, −1), (2, 1), (3, −1), (3, 1)}
D) {(2, 2), (2, 3), (3, 2), (3, 3)}
Explaine Why you chose your answer.
Answer:
B) {(−2, −3), (−3, −2), (2, 3), (3, 2)}
Step-by-step explanation:
For a relation to be a function, every x value must have only one y value. For a, c, and d, some of the x values have multiple different y values
Answer:
B) {(−2, −3), (−3, −2), (2, 3), (3, 2)}
Step-by-step explanation:
For a function to be valid, each value within the domain of the function must give exactly one value in the range of the function.
That is to say, for a function to be valid, every value of x must give only 1 unique value for y.
So basically if you have one value of x which gives a value for y, and if the same value for x gives you another value of y which is different than the first time, then you do NOT have a function.
With this in mind, we can see that for option B, every unique value for x, gives an equally unique value for y. Hence this is a function.
Lets compare this with option A (for example)
For A, we can see that for (0,0), an input of x=0, gave y=0. But then notice that the next set of coordinates (0,2), an input of x=0 gave y=2!!!! (this contradicts the first set (0,0), hence this is not a function.
you'll see similar contradictions for
option C (2,-1) vs (2,1)
option D (2,2) vs (2,3)

Which of the following is equivalent to Square root -63
Answer:
[tex]3i \sqrt{7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The imaginary unit is [tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex].
Now 63 itself is not a perfect square but 63 does contain a factor that is.
63=9×7 and 9 is a perfect square.
So [tex]\sqrt{-63}=i \sqrt{63}[/tex].
[tex]i \sqrt{63}=i \sqrt{9 \cdot 7}=i \sqrt{9} \sqrt{7}=i(3) \sqrt{7}=3i \sqrt{7}[/tex]
To find the square root of -63, you'll need to consider the concept of imaginary numbers because the square root of a negative number is not a real number. Here's how you can find the equivalent expression:
The square root of -63 can be expressed as √(-63). Since you cannot take the square root of a negative number in the real number system, you would use an imaginary unit, which we designate as "i". The imaginary unit "i" is defined as √(-1).
Now, you can factor -63 into -1 and 63, so the expression becomes:
√(-63) = √(-1 * 63)
This simplifies to:
√(-1) * √(63)
We already established that √(-1) is represented by the imaginary unit "i". So now the expression is:
i * √(63)
The √(63) doesn't simplify neatly into a whole number since 63 is not a perfect square. However, 63 can be factored into 9 and 7, where 9 is a perfect square. Let's do that:
√(63) = √(9 * 7)
√(63) = √(9) * √(7)
√(63) = 3 * √(7)
Therefore, the expression now looks like this:
i * 3 * √(7)
Since multiplication is commutative, you can reorder this:
3 * i * √(7)
Thus, the expression 3 * i * √(7) is equivalent to √(-63). This is because 3 * √(7) is the real number part and "i" indicates that it is an imaginary number due to the original square root of a negative number.

What is the domain for the following function?

A) {x does not equal -1}
B) {x does not equal -3; x does not equal 2}
C) {x does not equal -3}
D) {x does not equal 0}
Answer:
it's B
Step-by-step explanation:
the set of numbers for which a function is defined is called a domain of a function
if a number is not in the domain of a function, then the function is undefined for that number
denominator must not be zero
if we plug -3 then the y
=(-3+1)/(9+-3-6)
=(-2)/9-9
=-2/0
which is undefined for x=-3
now
if we plug 2 we have
(2+1)/(4+2-6)
=3/0
the function is undefined for x=2
so
x≠3, x≠2
The domain of the given function is {x does not equal -3; x does not equal 2}.
Explanation:The domain of a function is the set of all allowable input values. In this case, we need to find the values of x that make the denominator of the function equal to zero, because division by zero is undefined.
To find the domain, we set the denominator equal to zero and solve for x. The denominator is x^2 + x - 6, so we set it equal to zero and factor it: (x+3)(x-2) = 0. Now, we set each factor equal to zero and solve for x: x+3=0, x=-3; x-2=0, x=2.
The domain is the set of all values of x that make the function defined, so the answer is: (B) {x does not equal -3; x does not equal 2}.

Write an expression that is equivalent to 2.5x + ( 5y) -2.5
Answer:
2.5(x + 2y - 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
2.5x + ( 5y) -2.5
2.5x + 5y - 2.5 (we can just remove the parentheses without changing the value of the expression)
Each coefficient is divisible by 2.5 so by the distributive law:
2.5x + 5y - 2.5
= 2.5(x + 2y - 1).
By factorization of 2.5x + ( 5y) -2.5, the result is as follows-
2.5(x + 2y -1) is the expression equivalent to 2.5x + ( 5y) -2.5
What is factorization?
At first it is important to know about algebraic expression.
Algebraic expression consists of numbers and variables connected with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Factorization is the process of breaking down of an algebraic expression into a product of algebraic expressions of smaller degree. Each smaller degree algebraic expressions are called factors.

The common point between lines y = 2x + 5 and y = ½ x + 6 is (3, 1/2).
Answer:
The ordered pair (3,1/2) is not a common point, the statement is false
The solution is the point (0.667, 6.333) (common point)
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
[tex]y=2x+5[/tex] -----> equation A
[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+6[/tex] ----> equation B
we know that
If a ordered pair is a common point between the two lines,
then
the ordered pair must satisfy both equations
step 1
Verify if the ordered pair (3,1/2) satisfy equation A
substitute the value of x and the value of y in the equation A and then compare the results
For x=3, y=1/2
[tex]\frac{1}{2}=2(3)+5[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}=11[/tex] ----> is not true
The ordered pair don't satisfy the equation A
therefore
The ordered pair is not a common points both lines
The statement is false
step 2
Find the common point between the two lines
[tex]y=2x+5[/tex] -----> equation A
[tex]y=\frac{1}{2}x+6[/tex] ----> equation B

Using the equation y=2/3x-5, describe how to create a system of linear equations with an infinite number of solutions.
a system of linear equations with infinite solutions, is simply one that has the same equation twice, but but but, one of the equations is in disguise.
so, say we can just hmmm multiply the coefficient of the "x" variable, which is the slope, by something that gives us 1, recall same/same = 1, hmmm say let's multiply it by hmmmm 7/7.
[tex]\bf y=\cfrac{2}{3}x-5\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying the slope by }\frac{7}{7}}{\cfrac{2}{3}\cdot \cfrac{7}{7}\implies \cfrac{14}{21}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{so we get this equation}}{y=\cfrac{14}{21}x-5}[/tex]
now, let's notice that 14/21 simplifies to 2/3, so is really the same slope and the same y-intercept.
so if we use those two equations in a system of equations and graph them, what happens is, the first one will graph a line, the second one will graph another line BUT right on top of the first one drawn, so the two lines will just be pancaked on top of each other, making every point in each line, "a solution", since they're meeting at every point, and since lines go to infinite, "infinitely many solutions".
Answer:
Sample Response/Explanation: To have an infinite number of solutions, the equations must graph the same line. That means the equations must be equivalent. To form an equivalent equation, use the properties of equality to rewrite the given equation in a different form. Add, subtract, multiply, or divide both sides of the equation by the same amount.
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the quadratic term by squaring the (x+1) term.
Answer:
y = -2x^2 -4x +1
Step-by-step explanation:
y-3 = -2 (x+1)^2
Foil (x+1)^2
(x+1)(x+1) = x^2 +x+x+1 = x^2 +2x+1
Substitute this back in
y-3 = -2(x^2 +2x+1)
Distribute
y-3 = -2x^2 -4x -2
Add 3 to each side
y-3+3 = -2x^2 -4x -2+3
y = -2x^2 -4x +1
The width of a rectangle is 6 inches less than it’s length, and the area is 7 square inches. What are the length and width of the rectangle
Answer:
So length is 7 in while width is 1 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given W is 6 inches less than L which mean as an equation we have W=L-6.
We are given the area of this rectangle, LW=7.
So we have the system:
W=L-6
LW=7.
Replace the second W with what the first W equals:
LW=7
L(L-6)=7
Distribute:
[tex]L^2-6L=7[/tex]
Subtract 7 on both sides:
[tex]L^2-6L-7=0[/tex]
We are luck since the coefficient of L^2 is 1. This means all we have to do is find two numbers that multiply to be -7 add at the same time add up to -6.
Those numbers are -7 and 1 since (-7)(1)=-7 and (-7)+(1)=-6.
So the factored form of our equation is:
(L-7)(L+1)=0
This gives us two equations to solve:
L-7=0 or L+1=0
L=7 or L=-1
L=-1 doesn't make sense for a length so L=7.
L=7 means the length is 7 inches.
If W=L-6 and L=7, then W=7-6=1.
The width is 1 inch since W=1.
So length is 7 in while width is 1 in.
A bag contains red and blue marbles, such that the probability of drawing a blue marble is 3/8. An experiment consists of drawing a marble, replacing it, and drawing another marble. The two draws are independent. What is the probability that both of the marbles drawn are blue?
Answer:
9/64
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability that the marble on the first draw is blue is 3/8.
The probability that the marble on the second draw is blue is also 3/8.
So the probability that both are blue is:
3/8 × 3/8 = 9/64 ≈ 14%
The probability that both of the marbles drawn from the bag are blue is 9/64.
What is the probability?
Probability is the chance that an event would occur. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.
The probability that both of the marbles drawn are blue = fraction of blue marbles²
= 3/8 x 3/8 = 9/64

If x and p are both greater than zero and 4x^2p^2+xp-33=0, then what is the value of p in terms of x?
A) -3/x
B) -11/4x
C) 3/4x
D) 11/4x
Answer:
11/ (4x)Explanation:
1) Make a change of variable:
u = xp2) The new equation with u is:
4x²p² + xp - 33 = 04(xp)² + xp - 33 = 04u² + u - 33 = 03) Factor the left side of the new equation:
Split u as 12u - 11u ⇒ 4u² + u - 33 = 4u² + 12u -11u - 33Group terms: (4u² + 12u) - (11u + 33)Extract common factor of each group: 4u (u + 3 - 11 (u + 3)Common factor u + 3: (u + 3)(4u - 11).4) Come back to the equation replacing the left side with its factored form and solve:
(u + 3) (4u - 11) = 0Use zero product propery: u + 3 = 0 or 4u - 11 = 0solve each factor: u = - 3 or u = 11/45) Come back to the original substitution:
u = xpIf u = - 3 ⇒ xp = - 3 ⇒ x or p is negative and that is against the condition that x and p are both greater than zero, so this solution is discarded.
Then use the second solution:
u = xp = 11/4Solve for p:
Divide both sides by x: p = 11/(4x), which is the option D) if you write it correctly.
