The isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 7.5 m which equation can be used to find the value of x if the shortest side, y measures 2.1 m ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7.5 = 2x + 2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the sides.  In an isosceles triangle, two sides are the same length.  If x is the length of the two sides and y is the length of the third side, then:

P = 2x + y

Given that P = 7.5 and y = 2.1:

7.5 = 2x + 2.1

Answer 2

Answer: The equation that can be used to find the value of x is

2x + 2.1 = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation: An isosceles triangle is a type of triangle which has two of its sides equal to each other. It also has two it's angles (the base angles) equal to each other.

From the question, the given triangle has the shortest side, y to be 2.1 m. This means side y is shorter than the other two sides. Hence, the other two sides must be the sides that are equal to each other. These other two sides are denoted by x ( see the attachment for an illustrative diagram).

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of all its sides. Therefore, the perimeter (P) of the given triangle is

P = x + x + y

P = 2x + y

From the question, P = 7.5 m

and y = 2.1 m

Hence,

7.5 m = 2x + 2.1 m

2x + 2.1 m = 7.5 m

This equation can be used to find the value of x. The equation can also be written as:

2x = 7.5 m - 2.1m OR

x = (7.5 m - 2.1m) / 2

Answers

Answer:

D) After 270 years

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in 1928, f(x) = the winning jump

for women was 70.0 inches and g(x) = the winning jump for men was 86.5 inches.

Increase = 0.48% for women and 0.4%  for men

i.e. after x years  [tex]f(x) =70(1.0048)^x \\\\g(x) = 86.5(1.004)^x[/tex]

Let us find when these two values would be equal.

That is at point of intersection

Solving we get x =244 years

Hence approximately after 248 years women will exceed men.

what is the equation of the following line written in slope intercept form? (-5,-1)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{13}{3}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

m - slope

b - y-intercept

The formula of a slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

From the graph we have two points (-5, -1) and (-2, -3).

Look at the picture.

Calculate the slope:

[tex]m=\dfrac{-3-(-1)}{-2-(-5)}=\dfrac{-2}{3}=-\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

Put it to the equation in slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+b[/tex]

We can't read the y-intercept from the graph. Therefore put the coordinates of the point (-5, -1) to the equation and calculate b:

[tex]-1=-\dfrac{2}{3}(-5)+b[/tex]

[tex]-1=\dfrac{10}{3}+b[/tex]         subtract 10/3 from both sides

[tex]-\dfrac{3}{3}-\dfrac{10}{3}=b\to b=-\dfrac{13}{3}[/tex]

Answers

Final answer:

The discriminant of a quadratic equation informs us about the nature of its roots. By calculating the discriminant for each given equation, we categorize them accordingly: equations with discriminant greater than zero have two distinct real roots, equal to zero have one repeated real root, and less than zero have two complex roots.

Explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 is given by the expression b² - 4ac. The value of the discriminant determines the nature of the roots of the equation. To find the type of roots for each given equation:

x² − 4x + 2: The discriminant is (-4)² - 4(1)(2) = 16 - 8 = 8, which is greater than zero, so this equation has two distinct real roots.

5x² − 2x + 3: The discriminant is (-2)² - 4(5)(3) = 4 - 60 = -56, which is less than zero, indicating two complex roots.

2x² + x − 6: The discriminant is (1)² - 4(2)(-6) = 1 + 48 = 49, also greater than zero, leading to two distinct real roots.

13x² − 4 = 0 has a discriminant equivalent to that for x² − 4/13 = 0, which is 0² - 4(1)(-4/13) = 16/13, which is greater than zero, so this equation will have two distinct real roots.

x² − 6x + 9: The discriminant is (-6)² - 4(1)(9) = 36 - 36 = 0, indicating one repeated root.

x² − 8x + 16: The discriminant is (-8)² - 4(1)(16) = 64 - 64 = 0, which means this equation has one repeated root.

4x² + 11 = 0 has a discriminant equivalent to that for x² + 11/4 = 0, which is 0² - 4(1)(11/4) = -11, less than zero, thus resulting in two complex roots.

Through the method of using the discriminant, we can determine the types of roots each quadratic equation will have.

The two angles below form a linear pair, and the expressions are measured in degrees. What is the measure of the smaller angle?



62°
74°
118°
148°

Answers

Answer:

The measure of the smaller angle is 62°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two angles form a linear pair, then their sum is equal to 180 degrees (supplementary angles)

so

(2x-30)°+(x-12)°=180°

Solve for x

3x=180°+42°

3x=222°

x=74°

The measure of the angles are

(2x-30)°=2(74)-30=118°

(x-12)°=74-12=62° -----> smaller angle

Answers

Answer:

k = - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly as x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use any ordered pair from the given table of values

Using x = 1, y = - 9, then

k = [tex]\frac{y}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-9}{1}[/tex] = - 9

Answer:

-9.

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly as x so y = kx where k is the constant of variation.

Inserting the values of x and y.

0 = k*0

-9 = k*1 so k = -9

-18 = 2*k so k = -9

-27 = 3 *k so k = -9.

Point M is the midpoint of AB if the coordinates of A are (-3,6) and the coordinates of M are (-5,2) what are the coordinates of B ?

Please answer #5

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of point B are (-7 , -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The mid-point (x , y) of the line whose endpoints are (x1 , y1) and

 (x2 , y2) is [tex]x=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2},y=\frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}[/tex]

∵ M is the midpoint of AB

∵ The coordinates of point A are (-3 , 6)

∵ The coordinates of point M are (-5 , 2)

- Let the coordinates of point A are (x1 , y1) , The coordinates of

 point B are (x2 , y2) and The coordinates of point M are (x , y)

∴ x = -5 , x1 = -3 and y = 2 , y1 = 6

- Lets use the rule of the mid point to find x2 , y2

∵ [tex]-5=\frac{-3+x_{2}}{2}[/tex] ⇒ multiply both sides by 2

∴ [tex]-10=-3+x_{2}[/tex] ⇒ add 3 to both sides

∴ -7 = x2

∵ [tex]2=\frac{6+y_{2}}{2}[/tex] ⇒ multiply both sides by 2

∴ [tex]4=6+y_{2}[/tex] ⇒ subtract 6 from both sides

∴ -2 = y2

∵ The coordinates of point B are (x2 , y2)

∴ The coordinates of point B are (-7 , -2)

In an election 32 thousand people voted for Mayor Jackson. A total of 56 thousand people voted in the election. What is the ratio of the number of votes that were not for mayor Jackson to the total number of votes in simplest form?

Answers

Answer:

Ratio of the number of votes that were not for mayor Jackson to the total number of votes is 3:7

Step-by-step explanation:

Votes of Mayor Jackson = 32,000

Total Votes = 56,000

Votes not for Mayor Jackson = 56000 - 32000

Votes not for Mayor Jackson = 24000

ratio of the number of votes that were not for mayor Jackson to the total number of votes = Votes not for Mayor Jackson:Total Votes

= 24,000:56,000

=24:56 (divide numerator and denominator by 8)

=3:7

So, ratio of the number of votes that were not for mayor Jackson to the total number of votes is 3:7

Answer:

3 : 7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

In an election 32,000 people voted for Mayor Jackson

A total of 56,000 people voted in the election.

To find the ratio

Total number of people voted = 56000

Number of people voted for Mayor Jackson = 32000

Number of  votes that were not for mayor Jackson = 56000 - 32000 = 24000

The ratio of the number of votes that were not for mayor Jackson to the total number of votes = 24000 : 56000

Answers

Final answer:

The system of inequalities x + y ≤ 50 and x ≥ 20 can be graphically represented as two intersecting regions in a two-dimensional space, showing the possible combinations of stools (x) and recliners (y) the new coffee shop could have.

Explanation:

The subject of the question is a system of inequalities which is a common topic in high school level algebra. In this case, the system of inequalities presented is x + y ≤ 50 and x ≥ 20, where 'x' represents the number of stools and 'y' represents the number of recliners in the new coffee shop.

In order to represent this system graphically, firstly, we draw two lines that correspond to the equations x + y = 50 and x = 20. The area of intersection between the two regions defined by these lines represents the solution to the system of inequalities.

For the inequality x + y ≤ 50, we shade the area below the line because the sign is 'less than or equal to', and for x ≥ 20, we shade to the right because of the 'greater than or equal to' sign. The overlap region satisfies both inequalities and represents the possible combinations of stools and recliners the coffee shop can have according to the owner's preferences.

Final answer:

To solve the inequality Ax - 8 ≤ 12 for x in terms of a, add 8 to both sides to get Ax ≤ 20, and then divide by A (assuming A > 0) to find x ≤ 20/A.

Explanation:

To solve the inequality for x in terms of a, we start with the given inequality:

Ax - 8 ≤ 12.

First, we add 8 to both sides to isolate the term with x on one side:

Ax ≤ 20

Next, assuming A is not zero, we divide both sides by A to solve for x:

x ≤ 20 / A

This is the solution to the inequality, with the understanding that it only applies if A is positive, because if A were negative, we would need to reverse the inequality sign when dividing by A.

The square root of 64 is 8 and as you can see 2*8 is 16 so the middle also works out

(x+8)^2 is the answer

What is the product?
(x - 3)(2x2 – 5x + 1)

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{(x-3)(2x^2-5x+1)=2x^3-11x^2+16x-3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac:

[tex](x-3)(2x^2-5x+1)=(x-3)(2x^2)+(x-3)(-5x)+(x-3)(1)\\\\=(x)(2x^2)+(-3)(2x^2)+(x)(-5x)+(-3)(-5x)+x-3\\\\=2x^3-6x^2-5x^2+15x+x-3\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=2x^3+(-6x^2-5x^2)+(15x+x)-3\\\\=2x^3-11x^2+16x-3[/tex]

decreases at a rate that is proportional to the current value of the quantity?
O
A. Exponential growth
O
B. Positive slope
O
C. Negative slope
O
D. Exponential decay

Answers

Answer:

C- Negative Slope

This is because it you stated it is decreasing and it is proportional.

Negative slope best describes a condition in which a quantity decreases at a rate that is proportional to the current value of the quantity .

What is slope?

The slope of a line is the measure of the steepness and the direction of the line. Finding the slope of lines in a coordinate plane can help in predicting whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or none without actually using a compass.

What are types of slope?

Depending upon the relationship between the two variables x and y and thus the value of the gradient or slope of the line obtained.

There are 4 different types of slopes, given as,

Positive slope: indicates that while moving from left to right in the coordinate plane, the line rises, which also signifies that when x increases, so do y.Negative slope : indicates that while moving from left to right in the coordinate plane, the line falls, which also signifies that when x increases, y decreases.Zero slope : the rise is zero, and thus applying the rise over run formula we get the slope of the line as zero.Undefined Slope: The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

According to the question

A quantity decreases at a rate that is proportional to the current value of the quantity

As,

Slope decreases i.e when x increases, y decreases.

and the rate at which it is decreasing is proportional to the current value of the quantity .

Therefore ,

It best describes the negative slope .

Hence, the Negative slope best describes a condition in which a quantity decreases at a rate that is proportional to the current value of the quantity .

Study the following data set.
{8,15,9,18,9,17,22,10,11,9,13}
What is the interquartile range of the data set?

Enter your answer as a number, like this: 42

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on interquartile range which is the median of the upper half of the data minus the median of the lower half of data

First arrange the data in an increasing order;

8,15,9,18,9,17,22,10,11,9,13

8,9,9,9,10,11,13,15,17,18,22

Find the median, which is the center value in the data set

8,9,9,9,10,11,13,15,17,18,22⇒the median is 11

Place brackets around the numbers above and below the median

(8,9,9,9,10)11 (13,15,17,18,22)

Find the median in the lower half of the data,Q1

(8,9,9,9,10) ⇒median is 9=Q1

Find the median in the upper half of the data,Q3

(13,15,17,18,22)⇒median is 17=Q3

Subtract Q1 from Q3 to get the interquartile range

Q3=17, and Q1=9

Q3-Q1=17-9=8
