If the number under the square root was negative, then its solutions wouldn't be real numbers.  Therefore, x has to be equal to or greater than -7.

When it comes to reimbursement packages, company a offers $175 plus $0.55 per mile. company b offers $200 plus $0.45 per mile. what number of miles driven would make the two reimbursement packages equal?

Answers

For this case we have the following equations:
 y = 0.55x + 175
 y = 0.45x + 200
 We equate both equations:
 0.55x + 175 = 0.45x + 200
 We clear the value of x:
 0.55x - 0.45x = 200 - 175
 0.10x = 25

A triangle has vertices A (1, 5) B(2, 8) and C(2,0). It moves 3 units right and 5 units down.
HELP QUICK PLEASE

Answers

The coordinates of the vertices are written as X, Y

X is left to right, so moving 3 units right, you would add 3 to very X coordinate.

Y is moving up or down, moving 5 units down, means you would subtract 5 from every Y coordinate.

 The new coordinates would be:
A(4,0) B(5,3) and C(5,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be r, it means that the second will be r + 1.Given that the product of two consecutive integers is 156. we may interpret that to mean that

r(r + 1) = 156

r² + r - 156 = 0

what is 68 less than 5 times a number is equal to the number?

Answers

the answer would be 5x-68

The number here is will be represented as under -

Let the number be x.

Thus, the 5 times the number will be = 5x.

Now, it says, the number is 68 less than 5 times a number.

The equation so formed will be -

5x - 68 = x

4x = 68

x = 68.

Thus, the number will be 17.

Let us re-check the number,

(5 × 17) - 68 = 17

85 - 68 = 17

17 = 17. Thus, the number will be 17.

A ________________ event has a 100% chance of occurring. Example: Picking a red ball from a bag of only red balls.

Answers

certain event is the answer

We have been given that probability of the even is 100%. In other words we can say that the probability is 1. It means that the event will certainly occur.

Now, we know that the highest value of probability is 1 and lower value is 0.

Mathematically, we can represents it as

[tex]0\leq P(E)\leq 1[/tex]

If the probability is 0 then the event will never occur.

And if the probability is 1 then event will definitely occur.

Therefore, A certain event has a 100% chance of occurring.

Answer for #2 is A

3. D

Answer:  The correct options are (2). A,  (3). A.

Step-by-step explanation:  The calculations are as follows:

(1) We are to given the area of a regular hexagon with radius 5 in.

The AREA of a regular hexagon with side  'a' units is given by

[tex]A=\dfrac{3\sqrt3}{2}a^2.[/tex]

We know that the radius of a regular hexagon is equal to the length of each side, so we have

a = 5 in.

Therefore, the area of the hexagon will be

[tex]A=\dfrac{3\sqrt3}{2}\times 5^2=1.5\times 1.732\times 25=64.95\sim 65~\textup{in}^2.[/tex]

Thus, (A) is the correct option.

(2) Given that two adjacent sides of the triangle measure 1.32 miles and 2.75 miles.

The angle lying between the two sides measure 35°.

we are to find the area of the triangle.

We know that the area of a triangle with two adjacent sides of measure 'a' and 'b' units and 'β' be the measure of the angle lying between them is given by

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}ab\sin \beta.[/tex]

Here, a = 2.75 miles,  b = 1.32 miles  and  β = 35°.

Therefore, the total search area, in the form of triangle is given by

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2.75\times 1.32\times \sin 35^\circ=1.815\times 0.5735=2.08~\textup{mi}^2.[/tex]

Thus, the correct option is (A) 2.08 mi².

Hence, the correct options are (2). A,  (3). A.

Answers

your answer is the second choice 10.63

We have to use the distance formula to find the distance between (−8, 2.5) and (0, −4.5).

The distance formula states:

" For the given points [tex] A(x_{1},y_{1}) [/tex] and[tex] B(x_{2},y_{2}) [/tex], the distance between A and B is given as:

AB = [tex] \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}} [/tex]

We have to find distance between (−8, 2.5) and (0, −4.5). So, [tex] x_{1}= -8, y_{1}= 2.5 , x_{2}=0 , y_{2}=-4.5 [/tex]

AB = [tex] \sqrt{(0+8)^{2}+(-4.5-2.5)^{2}} [/tex]

AB = [tex] \sqrt{64+49} [/tex]

AB = [tex] \sqrt{113} [/tex]

AB = 10.630 units

By rounding to the nearest hundredth, we get

Distance between A and B = 10.63 units.

What is the equation of a parabola with a focus (-2,4) and directrix y = 0?

Answers

The equation of the parabola with focus (-2,4) and directrix y = 0 is (x + 2) = 8(y - 2). This is derived by finding the vertex and applying the general equation for a vertically oriented parabola.

To find the equation of a parabola with a given focus and directrix, we use the definition that a parabola is the set of all points that are equidistant from the focus and the directrix. In this case, the focus is at (-2,4) and the directrix is y = 0. The vertex of the parabola will thus be halfway between the focus and the directrix, which means it will lie on the line y = 2 (since the focus has a y-coordinate of 4 and the directrix is at y = 0).

The standard form equation of a vertically oriented parabola with its vertex at the origin is x = 4py, where p is the distance from the vertex to the focus (or to the directrix). For a parabola that is shifted to have a vertex not at the origin, the equation is (x-h)² = 4p(y-k) where (h,k) is the vertex.

In this scenario, because the vertex is not at the origin and the parabola opens upwards (since the directrix is below the focus), we'll adjust the standard form equation to take these factors into account. The vertex (h,k) is (-2,2), the focus is (-2,4), thus p = 2. Therefore, the equation is (x + 2)² = 4*2*(y - 2)

A cross section of a right triangular prism is created by a plane cut through the points shown and is also perpendicular to the opposite base.


what is the most specific name of the shape representing the cross section?

A. triangle
B. Rectangle
C. Trapezoid
D. Paralellogram

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B. Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The cross section will be a rectangle, as illustrated in the attachment.

The correct answer is B. Rectangle.

 To determine the shape of the cross section, we need to understand the properties of a right triangular prism and the nature of the plane cut. A right triangular prism has two congruent right triangles as its bases, and the lateral faces are rectangles.

When a plane cut is made through points that are vertices of the base right triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite base, the cross section will intersect all the lateral edges of the prism. Since the lateral edges are perpendicular to the base, the cross section will have four right angles, making it a quadrilateral.

Furthermore, because the cut is perpendicular to the opposite base, the cross section will have two pairs of parallel sides. One pair of parallel sides comes from the intersection with the two lateral faces that are parallel to each other, and the other pair comes from the intersection with the base and the top face of the prism, which are also parallel.

 Given these properties, the most specific name for the shape of the cross section is a rectangle, as it is a quadrilateral with four right angles and opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. Rectangle.

 (x+y)(x+y)
 (x+y)²

 Therefore, the answer is: (x+y)²

A surveying instrument aimed at a location can “shoot” the distance to the location, giving the surveyor a measurement.

the appropriate formula, substitutions, and work. Give the distance to the nearest tenth of

c.) Use the Law of Sines to find the measure of T. (Show the appropriate formula, substitutions, and work. Give the measure of T to the nearest degree.)

d.) Find mF

Please Help Me :(

Answers

a. See attached for diagram. The basic idea is that you put a point S down (for the surveyor) and draw a segment of length 60m that goes from S to T (the tree). Then from S you draw a segment 35m to F such that there is an angle of 57 degrees between ST and SF making sure that SF is to the left of ST if you are looking at T and F from point S as the surveyor would be. Then connect FT.

b. Here we are looking for the distance between the tree (T) and the fence post (F). So we want the length of FT. We have the lengths of two sides and an angle and want the other side. The side we seek is opposite the angle whose measure we know. In this case we can use the law of cosines.
The law of cosines is: [tex] c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} -2abcosC[/tex]

I have labeled the side we want FT this c in the diagram. It is opposite the 57 degree angle which we will call C. (Little c is the side and big C is the angle). We call the other two sides of the triangle a and b. It doesn't matter which is which. So we have the following:
a= FS = 35
b= ST = 60
c = FT
angle C = angle S = 57 degrees
We plug the above values into the law of cosines and solve for c as follows:
[tex]c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} -2abcosC[/tex]
[tex]c^{2} = 35^{2} + 60^{2} -2(35)(60)cos57[/tex]
[tex]c^{2} = 1225+ 3600-(4200)(.544639)[/tex]
[tex] c^{2} =2537.51606[/tex]
[tex]c=50.3737[/tex]
You are asked to round to the nearest tenth (one decimal place) which gives the answer 50.4 meters

c. You are asked to find the measure of angle T. Further you are asked to do so using the Law of Sines. The law of sines is: [tex] \frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{B}{sinB} = \frac{c}{sinC} [/tex]. Even though there are three fractions set equal to eahc other, when we use the Law of Sines to find an angle (or a side) we need only use two fractions in most cases. Using the labels we used in part B we have the following:
A = T = the angle we are looking for
a = FS = 35 meters
C = S = 57 degrees
c = FT = 50.4 meters
We substitute these into the Law of Sines and solve for A as follows:
[tex] \frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{c}{sinC} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{35}{sinA} = \frac{50.4}{sin57} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{35}{sinA} = \frac{50.4}{.8386705} [/tex]
[tex]50.4sinA=29.353469[/tex]
[tex]sinA=.58241011662[/tex]
Here we use the arc sin (on a calculator it looks like sin to the negative 1 but it's called arcsin)
[tex] sin^{-1}(.58241011662)=A [/tex]
[tex]A=35.62023656[/tex]
You are asked to round this to the nearest degree which means to the nearest whole number. The answer is 36 degrees.

d. You are asked for the measure of angle F. Recall that the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. We know that S = 57 degrees and T = 36 degrees (from part c). So to find the missing angle we add these and subtract their sum from 180.
[tex]F = 180-(36+57)[/tex]
F=180-93
F=87
The measure of angle F is 87 degrees

NOTE: Angles can be measure in degrees and in radians. This problem uses degrees so it is important that your calculator is set to degrees when doing this problem.

Kendra has a painting canvas that is 20 inches wide by 37 inches high. She painted a red rose, which covered 50% of the canvas.

What was the area of the canvas which was covered by the red rose?

Answers

The total area is:
 A = (20) * (37)
 A = 740 in ^ 2
 We can make the following rule of three:
 740in ^ 2 -----> 100%
 x --------------> 50%
 Clearing x we have:
 x = (50/100) * (740)
 x = 370 in ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the area of the canvas which was covered by the red rose was:
 
x = 370 in ^ 2

The area of the canvas covered by the red rose is 370 square inches, calculated by multiplying the width and height of the canvas to find the total area and then taking 50% of that area.

The task is to calculate the area of a canvas that was covered by a red rose painting, which took up 50% of the total canvas area. To find the area covered by the red rose, we first need to calculate the total area of the canvas. The total area (A) of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its width (W) by its height (H), which gives us the formula:

A = W x H

In this case, Kendra's canvas is 20 inches wide and 37 inches high. Using the formula:

A = 20 inches x 37 inches = 740 square inches

Now, since the red rose covers 50% of the canvas, we simply take 50% of the total area to find the area covered by the red rose:

Area covered by the red rose = 50% of 740 square inches = 0.50 x 740 square inches = 370 square inches

Therefore, the area of the canvas covered by the red rose is 370 square inches.

Marcia has $84 less than three times as much as sue. together they have $132. how much money does marcia have?

Answers

let x = sue
and then let 3x-84 = marcia
therefore
(x)+(3x-84)=132
4x-84=132
4x=216
x=54

however just solving for x doesnt completely solve. it only shows sues money because x = sue
for marcia
3x-84
3(54)-84
162-84
78

therefore Marcia has 78$.
Final answer:

To find out how much money Marcia has, a system of linear equations is set up and solved. Sue has $54, which means Marcia has $78 since she has $84 less than three times Sue's amount. They together have $132.

Explanation:

The question involves solving a system of linear equations to determine how much money Marcia has if she has $84 less than three times as much as Sue. Together they have $132. To solve this, let's name the amount Sue has as S, and consequently, Marcia has 3S - $84. Adding both amounts, we get the equation S + (3S - 84) = $132.

Combining like terms gives us 4S - 84 = $132. We solve for S by first adding 84 to both sides, which yields 4S = $216. Dividing both sides by 4 gives us S = $54. Knowing Sue's amount, we can compute Marcia’s by multiplying Sue’s amount by three and then subtracting 84, so 3 x $54 - $84 = $162 - $84 = $78. Therefore, Marcia has $78.

you are purchasing a house 12 years from now the estimated purchase price is 171,600.00 you want to make a 20%down payment how much do you have to save per month to reach your goal

Answers

You need to save $238.33 per month.

We need to save 20% of 171600; this is 0.2(171600) = $34320

We have 12 years to save for this; 12 months per year for 12 years is 144 months:

144x = 34320

Divide both sides by 144:
144x/144 = 34320/144 
x = 238.33
