Answer 1
Answer: Choice B. f(x) = 100 - 68x

Work Shown:

Solve for y. Then replace y with f(x).

[tex]680x + 10y - 1000 = 0\\\\10y - 1000 = -680x\\\\10y = -680x + 1000\\\\y = \frac{-680x + 1000}{10}\\\\y = \frac{-680x}{10} + \frac{1000}{10}\\\\y = -68x + 100\\\\y = 100 - 68x\\\\f(x) = 100 - 68x\\\\[/tex]

Effectively this involves adding 1000 to both sides and subtracting 680x from both sides, afterward we divide both sides by 10 to isolate y.

Which type(s) of symmetry does the following object have?
Select all that apply.

Answers

Answer: You are correct. There is only one answer and that is choice B) vertical line of symmetry.

We can draw a vertical line through the center to have one half mirror over this line to get the other half. We can't do the same with a horizontal line or any other kind of line.

We do not have rotational symmetry. Rotating the figure will produce an image different from the original. The angle of rotation is some angle x such that 0 < x < 360.

            m∠M = 116°               m∠N = 111°               m∠O = 64°               m∠P = 69°  

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral can be inscribed in a circle only if the sum of its opposite angles is equal to 180°, so:

7x - 15 + 3x + 15 = 180°      and      2(17y - 10) + 13y + 12 = 180°

     10x = 180°                                  34y - 20 + 13y + 12 = 180°

       x = 18°                                             47y = 188°

                                                                   y = 4°

m∠M:  2(17•4 - 10) = 2•58° = 116

m∠N:   7•18 - 15 =126 - 15 = 111

m∠O:   13•4 + 12 = 52 + 12 = 64  

m∠P:    3•18 + 15 = 54 + 15 = 69

a zookeeper has both flamingos and alligators in his zoo there are 78 feet and 27 heads how many flamingos and aligators are there

Answers

Answer:

15 flamingos and 12 alligators

Step-by-step explanation:

Because there are 27 heads, that means there is a total of 27 flamingos and alligators. Flamingos have 2 feet and alligators have 4 feet.

1. Set up a system of equations

(x = number of flamingos, y = number of alligators)

1x + 1y = 27 heads

2x + 4y = 78 feet

2. Multiply to get the same coefficient

2(1x + 1y = 27) → 2x + 2y = 54

3. Subtract

 2x + 2y = 54

- 2x + 4y = 78

 0x + -2y = -24

4. Solve for y

-2y = -24

y = 12

5. Plug in y to solve for x

1x + 1(12) = 27

x + 12 = 27

x = 15

 Step-by-step explanation:

The company will be launching a firework from the ground, but you want to increase the time it stays in the air by 2 seconds to build up the suspense. How can the company make this happen without changing the length of the fuse? How will this affect the maximum height of the firework? g(t) = -16t2 + 224t + 120

Answers

Answer: find the answer in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To increase the time the fireworks stays in the air by 2 seconds to build up the suspense, 2 should be added to the time t.

T + 2 = t

T = t - 2

Substitute T for t in the function g(t)

The company will make this happen without changing the length of the fuse by substituting T for t which will lead to

g(t) = -16(t - 2)^2 + 224(t - 2) + 120

How will this affect the maximum height of the firework?

Initially the function is:

g(t) = -16t2 + 224t + 120

Where the time at maximum height is found by using the formula

t = -b/2a

b = 224, a = -16

Substitutes both into the formula

t = -224/2(-16)

t = -224/-32

t = 7

Substitute 7 for t in the first equation

g(t) = -16(7)^2 + 224(7) + 120

g(t) = -16(49) + 224(7) + 120

g(t) = -784 + 1568 + 120

g(t) = 904 metres

But when the time is delayed by 2 seconds in the air, the maximum height will be

g(t) = -16( 7 - 2 )^2 + 224(7 - 2) + 120

g(t) = -16(5)^5 + 224(5) + 120

g(t) = -16(25) + 224(5) + 120

g(t) = -400 + 1120 + 120

g(t) = 840

The effect will surely reduce the maximum height of the fireworks.

what is this expression in simplest form.(-11/2x+3)-2(-11/4x-5/2)​

Answers

Answer:

The simplest form of the given expression is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

(-11/2x + 3) - 2(-11/4x - 5/2)

Distribute 2 to (-11/4x - 5/2)

(-11/2x + 3) - (-11/2x - 5)

Now, combine like terms. The terms with the x value will cancel each other out because a negative plus a positive of the same number will equal zero. For example, -2 + 2 = 0.

So, the expression in the simplest form is going to be 8. The x values have cancelled each other out so all there is left is the constant number which is 8.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

The height of the sail on a boat is 7 feet less than 3 times the length of its base.

Let the length of the base is x.

ATQ,

Height = (3x-7)

Area of the sail is 68 square feet.

Formula for area is given by :

[tex]A=lb\\\\68=x(3x-7)\\\\3x^2-7x=68\\\\3x^2-7x-68=0[/tex]

x = 8 feet and x = -3.73 feet

So, length is 8 feet

Height is 3(8)-7 = 17 feet.

So, its height and the length of the base is 17 feet and 8 feet respectively.

A store pays two fees when a customer uses a credit card to make a purchase. These fees include:

There is no sales tax on the purchase.
What is the amount, in dollars and cents, the store pays in fees for a $60.00 purchase by a customer using a credit
card?**

Answers

Answer:

So the amount to pay is $1 and 20 cents ( or a total of 120 cents)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the amount paid as fees for a $60 purchase given that the store has to pay a flat fee of $0.15 and a processing fee of 1.75% of the amount of purchase.

Firstly, we establish that there are two fees to be paid.

We already have a fee of $0.15

The other fee to pay is 1.75% of $60

Mathematically that would be;

1.75/100 * 60 = $1.05

Thus, the fees to be paid on the $60 purchase is $1.05 + $0.15 = $1.20

Given: m∠V=103°, m∠VRT=71°, RS ∥ VU Find: m∠TRS, m∠U

Answers

Answer:

m∠U = 103° and m∠TRS = 6°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given circle O,

Since, RS║VU, and VR is a transverse,

Therefor, m∠V + m∠R = 180° [Consecutive interior angles]

m∠R + 103° = 180° [m∠R = 103° given]

m∠R = 180° - 103°

m∠R = 77°

Since m∠R = m∠VRT + m∠TRS

77° = 71° + m∠TRS

m∠TRS = 77° - 71° = 6°

Quadrilateral RTUV is a cyclic quadrilateral.

Therefore, m∠U + m∠R = 180°

m∠U + 77° = 180°

m∠U = 180° - 77° = 103°

Explanation:

It is a function because any x input leads to exactly one y output. The graph visually passes the vertical line test. It is impossible to draw a single vertical line through more than one point on the cubic curve, so that's why the graph passes the test, and visually confirms we have a function.

Hey There!!

Your best choice is 76%

Because, 19/25 = x/100

25x = 1900

x = 76

°He got 76% correct!!°

By °Itsbrazts°

Answer:

76%

Step-by-step explanation:

Thomas got 19/25 marks.

** Note: Percents are always out of 100.

We don't know how many marks he got out of 100.

=> 19/25 = x/100

There are two ways to solve it from now.

=> Multiply 19 and 100; 25 and x

=> 25x = 1900

Next, Divide 25 on each side.

=> 25x/25 = 1900/25

=> x = 76

He got 76% on the quiz.

Another way is:

=> 19/25 = x/100

=> We need to divide 25 from 100.

=> We get 4.

So, 25 x 4 = 100

=> 19 x 4 = x

=> x = 76

He got 76% on the quiz.

Both ways are correct.
