Like terms are numbers with the same variable and same power. 5 and 7 are like terms because they have no variable. 6x and 6y are not because they have different variables. 7x² and 6y² are also not like terms because they have different variables. 7x and 5x are like terms, and 5y³ and 9y³ are like terms.
We see that 2x and -x have the same variables. We can then combine them.
2x-x=x
Now we have x+3=7.
We subtract 3 from both sides, giving us x=4.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Sandra spotted the sailboat from the shore and measured the angle from the waterline to the top of the boats mast to be 7° if the top of the mask is 23 feet above the water how far is the middle of the sailboat from the shore? Estimate your answer to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
The middle of the sailboat is approximately 268.8 feet from the shore.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the distance from shore to the middle of the boat be represented by x, the angle of elevation of Sandra from the shore to the top of the boat mast is 7°. Applying the required trigonometric function to this question, we have;
Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]
Tan 7° = [tex]\frac{23}{x}[/tex]
⇒ x = [tex]\frac{23}{Tan 7^{0} }[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{23}{0.12279}[/tex]
= 268.7515
∴ x = 268.8 feet
The middle of the sailboat is approximately 268.8 feet from the shore.

An ant needs to travel along a 20cm × 20cm cube to get from point A to point B. What is the shortest path he can take, and how long will it be (in cm)?
Each edge of the cube is 20cm. If it stayed on the edges it would need to walk on 3 edges for a total distance of 3 x 20 = 60 cm.
If it walked diagonally across the front face and then one edge it would travel:
Diagonal = sqrt(20^2 + 20^2) = 28.28
Total distance waling a diagonal and then an edge = 28.28 + 20 = 48.28 cm
The shortest distance would be diagonally across the front face then the edge to point B and the distance would be 48.28 cm.

What is the formula for finding mean or average?
Answer:
LOOK BELOW
Step-by-step explanation:
I would not call the explanation a formula
All you have to do to solve mean or average is add all of the numbers up and divide by the total amount of numbers
so for example
0,2,4,0,2,3,2,8,6 <-------- lets find the mean/average
0+2+4+2+3+2+8+6= 27/amount of numbers
amount of numbers=9
(count the zeros too!)
27/9=3

A 250.0 kg rock falls off a 40.0 m cliff. What is the kinetic energy of the rock just before it hits the ground (hint: conservation of energy)?
Answer:
kinetic energy body when it hits the ground is 98000 joule
1000joule = 1 kilojoule
, kinetic energy body when it hits the ground is 98 kilo-joule
Step-by-step explanation:
conservation of energy states that total energy of a system remains constant.
Potential energy of body = mgh
m = mass
g = gravitational pull = 9/8 m/s^2
h = height
kinetic energy = 1/2 mv^2
where v is the velocity of body
________________________________________
Total energy for this at any point is sum of potential energy and kinetic energy
total energy at height h
v= 0
PE = 250*9.8*40= 98,000
KE = 1/2 m0^2 = 0
total energy at when ball hits the ground
h=0
PE = 250*9.8*0 =
KE = 1/2 mv^2
_______________________________________\
Applying conservation of energy
Total energy at height h = total energy at ground
98000 = KE
Thus, kinetic energy body when it hits the ground is 98000 joule
1000joule = 1 kilojoule
, kinetic energy body when it hits the ground is 98 kilo-joule
In the figure below, triangle DOG, triangle ION, and triangle IDO are congruent and isosceles, each with perimeter 55. The quadrilaterals FLIN, DIES, and DRAG are all squares. The perimeter of the 11-sided polygon $DRAGONFLIES$ is 127. What is the area of DRAG?
Answer:
81 sq units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Triangles DOG, ION and IDO are congruent and isosceles.
Let Sides NO = IO = DO = GO = [tex]x[/tex] units
Let the sides of squares FLIN, DIES and DRAG = [tex]a[/tex] units
So, NF = FL = LI = NI = IE = ES = SD = DI = DR = RA = AG = GD = [tex]a[/tex] units
Given that perimeter of each of Triangles DOG, ION and IDO = 55 units
Sum of sides of triangle = [tex]2x+a=55 ...... (1)[/tex]
and Perimeter of 11 sided polygon DRAGONFLIES = 127 units
The perimeter of the polygon includes the sides (only outer sides are included):
DR, RA, AG, GO, ON, NF, FL, LI, IE, ES and SD
[tex]2x+9a = 127......(2)[/tex]
Solving equations (2) and (1) by subtracting (1) from equation (2):
[tex]8a = 72\\\Rightarrow a = 9 units[/tex]

A certain forest covers an area of 2600 km^2. Suppose that each year this area decreases by 4.75%. What will the area be after 11 years? Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest square kilometer.
Answer:
1522km^2
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, first convert the percentage to a decimal. That would be .0475.
Now subtract that from 1.0 to get the factor it decreases by. This would be 1-.0475 = .9525
Multiply 2600 x (.9525)^11 = 1522.258 which rounds to 1522 km^2
Answer:
The area will be 1292.98 km² after 11 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find what decreases by 4.57% each year in kilometers:
2600 × 4.57/100 = 26 × 4.57
= 118.82 km²
To find the area after 11 years:
118.82 × 11 = 1307.02
2600 - 1307.02 = 1292.98 km²
1292.98 km² is the answer.
find the Perimeter Of a circle whose radius is 14cm
Answer:
88 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2πr
=2(14)(22/7)
= 88 cm
Answer:
87.97cm
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is asking to solve for the circumference.
The formula for the circumference of a circle is: [tex]\pi*diameter[/tex]
To work this out you would first need to multiply the radius of 14 by 2, this gives you 28cm. This is because the radius is half of the diameter.
The final step is to multiply pi by the diameter of 28, this gives you 87.97cm (87.9645943). This is because the formula for the circumference of a circle is [tex]\pi * diameter[/tex].
1) Multiply 14 by 2.
[tex]14*2=28[/tex]
2) Multiply pi by the diameter.
[tex]\pi*28^2=87.97 cm[/tex]
Kyle stood on a bridge and threw a rock up and over the side. The height of the rocks in meters can be approximated by approximated by -5t^2+5t+24, where T is the time in seconds after car through it completely factor the expression
Answer:
The factorized expression is (-5) × (t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is -5·t² + 5·t + 24
To factorize the expression by completing the square method, we equate the expression to zero to get;
-5·t² + 5·t + 24 = 0
WE divide by -5 to get;
t² - t - 24/5 = 0
t² - t = 24/5
t² - t + 1/4 = 24/5 + 1/4
(t - 1/2)² = 5.05
t - 1/2 = ±√5.05
t = 1/2 + √5.05, 1/2 - √5.05
The factorized expression becomes;
(t - 1/2 + √5.05) and (t - 1/2 - √5.05)
Which gives;
(t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747)
The factorized expression is (-5) × (t - 2.747) ×(t - 1.747).

Cody is a lifeguard and spots a drowning child 40 meters along the shore and 70 meters from the shore to the child. Cody runs along the shore for a while and then jumps into the water and swims from there directly to the child. Cody can run at a rate of 4 meters per second and swim at a rate of 1.1 meters per second. How far along the shore should Cody run before jumping into the water in order to save the child? Round your answer to three decimal places.
Answer:
Cody should run approximately 19.978 meters along the shore before jumping into the water in order to save the child.Thus,
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the diagram below.
In this case we need to minimize the time it takes Cody to save the child.
Total time to save the child (T) = Time taken along the shore (A) + Time taken from the shore (B)
The formula to compute time is:
[tex]time=\frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]
Compute the time taken along the shore as follows:
[tex]A=\frac{x}{4}[/tex]
Compute the time taken from the shore as follows:
[tex]B=\frac{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}{1.1}[/tex]
Then the total time taken to save the child is:
[tex]T=\frac{x}{4}+\frac{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}{1.1}[/tex]
Differentiate T with respect to x as follows:
[tex]\frac{dT}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}[\frac{x}{4}]+\frac{d}{dx}[\frac{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}{1.1}][/tex]
[tex]=\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{1.1}\cdot \frac{(40-x)}{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}[/tex]
Equate the derivative to 0 to compute the value of x as follows:
[tex]\frac{dT}{dx}=0[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{1.1}\cdot \frac{(40-x)}{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}=0\\\\\frac{1}{1.1}\cdot \frac{(40-x)}{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}=\frac{1}{4}\\\\4\cdot (40-x)=1.1\cdot [\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}]\\\\\{4\cdot (40-x)\}^{2}=\{1.1\cdot [\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}]\}^{2}\\\\16\cdot (40-x)^{2}=1.21\cdot [70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}]\\\\16\cdot (40-x)^{2}-1.21\cdot (40-x)^{2}=5929\\\\14.79\cdot (40-x)^{2}=5929\\\\(40-x)^{2}=400.88\\\\40-x\approx 20.022\\\\x\approx 40-20.022\\\\x\approx 19.978[/tex]
Thus, Cody should run approximately 19.978 meters along the shore before jumping into the water in order to save the child.

O A This is the graph of a linear function
B. This is the graph of a one-to-one function
C. This is the graph of a function, but it is not one to one
D. This is not the graph of a function
The vertical line test helps us see that we have a function. Note how it is not possible to draw a single straight line through more than one point on the curve. Any x input leads to exactly one y output. This graph passes the vertical line test. Therefore it is a function.
The function is not one-to-one because the graph fails the horizontal line test. Here it is possible to draw a single straight horizontal line through more than one point on the curve. The horizontal line through y = 2 is one example of many where the graph fails the horizontal line test, meaning the function is not one-to-one.
The term "one-to-one" means that each y value only pairs up with one x value. Here we have something like y = 2 pair up with multiple x values at the same time. This concept is useful when it comes to determining inverse functions.
Compute the range and interquartile range for the data collected for boys and girls. Describe their differences in detail using specific terms of spread. (4 points)
Answer:
The measure of central tendency, mean and median are approximately equal for the boys indicating that the data of the boys is more evenly spread while standard deviation of the girls data is less than those of the boys indicating that the data for the girls is less widely spread.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given data are;
, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Girls, 50 32 15 56 81 50 18 81 22 55
Boys, 75 41 25 22 7 0 43 12 45 70
Sorting the data gives;
Girls, 15, 18, 22, 32, 50, 50, 55, 56, 81, 81
Boys, 0, 7, 12, 22, 25, 41, 43, 45, 70, 75
For the even numbered sample data size, the first quartile, Q₁ is found by sharing the data into two and finding the median of the left half which gives;
10/2 = 5 on each half
The first quartile, Q₁, is the median of the left 5 data points which is the 3rd data point = 22 for girls and 12 for boys
The third quartile, Q₃, is found in similar method to be the 8th data point which is 56 for girls and 45 for boys
The median = 50 for girls and 33 for boys
Therefore, the interquartile ranges are;
IQR = 56 - 22 = 34 for girls, 45 - 12 = 33 for boys
We check for outliers.
Q₁ - 1.5×IQR = 22 - 1.5*34 = -29
Q₃ + 1.5×IQR = 56 + 1.5*34 = 107
We check the mean of both data samples as follows;
Average for the girls = 46
Average for the boys = 34
Standard deviation for girls = 23.99
Standard deviation for girls = 25.43
Therefore, the measure of central tendency is more accurate for the boys indicating that the data of the boys is more evenly spread while the data for the girls is less widely spread.

The temperature in Anchorage, Alaska at 6:00 am was 2°C. If the temperature drops 2 degrees each hour, what is the temperature in degrees celsius at 2:00 pm
Answer:
-12°C
Step-by-step explanation:
6AM = 2°C
8AM= -2°C
10AM= -6°C
12AM= -8°C
2PM= -12°C
the temperature in degrees Celsius at 2:00 pm would be -14°C.
To find the temperature in degrees Celsius at 2:00 pm, we need to determine the number of hours that have passed from 6:00 am to 2:00 pm, and then calculate the temperature decrease accordingly.
From 6:00 am to 2:00 pm, a total of 8 hours have passed (6 hours from 6:00 am to 12:00 pm, and 2 hours from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm).
Given that the temperature drops 2 degrees Celsius each hour, we can multiply the number of hours (8) by the rate of temperature decrease (2 degrees/hour):
Temperature decrease = 8 hours × 2 degrees/hour = 16 degrees
Starting with a temperature of 2°C at 6:00 am, if the temperature drops 16 degrees Celsius over 8 hours, we can subtract 16 from the initial temperature:
Temperature at 2:00 pm = 2°C - 16°C = -14°C
Therefore, the temperature in degrees Celsius at 2:00 pm would be -14°C.
