What is the midpoint of the segment shown below?

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}x\leq\dfrac{20}{a}&\text{for}\ a>0\\\\x\geq\dfrac{20}{a}&\text{for}\ a<0\end{array}\right }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]ax-8\leq12\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\\\ax-8+8\leq12+8\\\\ax\leq20\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ a\neq0\\\\(1)\ \text{if}\ a>0,\ \text{then:}\\\\x\leq\dfrac{20}{a}\\\\(2)\ \text{if}\ a<0,\ \text{then you must flip the sign of inequality:}\\\\x\geq\dfrac{20}{a}[/tex]

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.

Answer:

The parent function f(x) is equal to [tex]f\left(x\right)=\left|x\right|[/tex]

The translations is 3 units to the left and 5 units down

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]h\left(x\right)=\left|x+3\right|-5[/tex]

The vertex of the function h(x) is the point (-3,-5)

we know that the parent function f(x) is equal to

[tex]f\left(x\right)=\left|x\right|[/tex]

The vertex of the function f(x) is the point (0,0)

so

The rule of the transformation of f(x) to h(x) is equal to

(x,y) -----> (x-3,y-5)

That means ----> The translations is 3 units to the left and 5 units down

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

For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

[tex]y-y_ {0} = m (x-x_ {0})[/tex]

We have the following points:

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.

A) 6^2 + 11^2 is not equal to 15^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if a right triangle is a right triangle you have to use the Pythagorean Theorem, like it is used in A.

6^2 + 11^2 = 15^2

36 + 121 = 225

157 does not equal 225

So this is not a right triangle

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the picture is a triangle ABC with three sides given as 6,11 and 15

By the picture itself we can say that the largest angle is obtuse and hence the triangle is not right angled.

Using the converse of Pythagorean theorem that in a right triangle sides square add upto square of hypotenuse let us check whether this applies to this triangle.

Small sides are 6 and 11

Squaring and adding gives

[tex]6^2+11^2 = 187[/tex]

Large side = 11 and square is

[tex]15^2 =225 > 121[/tex]

Hence this is not a right triangle but obtuse

So option A is right

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

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)

Add the totals of each item together:

189.99 + 249.95 + 493.68 + 98.75 + 98.75 = 1,131.12

Now multiply that by the tax rate as a decimal:

1131.12 x 0.0725 = 82.01

Now add that to the total of the items:

1,131.12 + 82.01 = $1,213.13 total

For this case we have that the total of the purchase is given by:

Coffee table: $ 189.99

Loveseat: $ 249.95

Sofa: $ 493.68

2 chairs: 2 * $ 98.75 = $ 197.5

Adding up we have: $ 1131.12

Now, we must find the tax amount:

$ 1131.12 ----------> 100%

x ------------------------> 7.25%

Where "x" represents the value of the tax:

[tex]x = \frac {7.25 * 1131.12} {100}\\x = 82.0062[/tex]

Finally, the amount to be paid is:

$ 1131.12 + $ 82.0062 = $ 1213.13

Answer:

[tex]\frac{50}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar shapes have corresponding sides that are proportional.

So 20 corresponds to x (big to small).

So 12 corresponds to 10 (big to small).

Your information is already lined up for you to setup your proportion:

[tex]\frac{20}{12}=\frac{x}{10}[/tex]

Cross multiply:

[tex]20(10)=12(x)[/tex]

Simplify both sides:

[tex]200=12x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12:

[tex]\frac{200}{12}=x[/tex]

Simplify by dividing top and bottom by 4:

[tex]\frac{50}{3}=x[/tex]

[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]

Finally:

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