Find The Measure Of FG.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Choice D, x = 9

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

EG = EF + FG = 9 + x - 3 = 6 + x

AG = AH + HG = 6 +x - 2 =  4 + x

Intersecting secant theorem,

FG * EG = HG * AG

(x - 3)*(6 +x) = (x -2)(x + 4)

Use Foil method

6x + x²  - 18 - 3x = x² + 4x - 2x - 8

x² + 3x  - 18 = x² + 2x - 8

x² - x² + 3x - 2x = -8 + 18

               x = 10

Suppose we have a stick of length 1.a) We randomly uniformly choose a point and break the stick into two pieces.Find the expected length of the smaller piece.b) We randomly uniformly choose two points (independently) and break thestick into three pieces. Find the probability that the three resulting piecescan be arranged to form a triangle (i.e. all triangle inequalities are satisfied;i.e no piece is longer than the sum of the other two).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The smaller sticks will range in length from almost 0 unit up to a maximum of 0.5 unit, with each length equally possible.

Therefore, the average length will be about (0 + 0.5)/2 = 0.25 unit

2)If you assume that each break in the stick is uniformly distributed along the length of the stick and is independent of the location of the other break, then the odds are 25% that you will be able to form a triangle with the 3 pieces.

We'll call the length of the stick 1, so each break can occur at a position in the interval [0,1]. Let x and y represent the two breaks. Then we can look at the area of the region in the square bounded x=0, x=1, y=0, y=1, which represents combinations of x and y, for which we can form a triangle. Since the area of the whole square is 1, the area of the region inside is our probability.

If y>x, then the lengths of the pieces are x, y-x, and 1-y.

The triangle inequality must hold for each combination of edges.

for y>x ...

x+y−x≥1−y

x+1−y≥y−x

y−x+1−y≥x

these simplify to...

for y>x ...

y≥1/2

x+1/2≥y

x≤1/2

If we cut our 1x1 square into two triangles along the line x=y,

then the region in the upper triangle which satisfies the inequalities above forms a smaller triangle which connects the midpoints of the upper triangle.

The lower triangle (x>y), is just a reflection about x=y of the upper triangle, so together, the entire region looks like a bow-tie at a 45 degree angle.

This region takes up 25% of the square, so the probability that you can form a triangle is 25%

A basketball is shot into the air. Its height is represented by the polynomial equation h(t) = –16t2 + 35t + 5, where h is the height of the basketball at t seconds. What's the height of the basketball at 1.5 seconds?
Question 4 options:

20.2 feet


18.8 feet


21.5 feet


16.7 feet

Answers

Answer:

height = 21.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute t = 1.5 into h(t) and evaluate

h(1.5) = - 16(1.5)² + 35(1.5) + 5

        = - 16(2.25) + 52.5 + 5

       = - 36 + 57.5

      = 21.5 ft

Answer:

21.5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t = 1.5

[tex]h(1.5)=-16(1.5)^2+35(1.5)+5\\h(1.5)=-36+52.5+5\\h(1.5)=21.5[/tex]

Therefore, at 1.5 seconds, the basketball is 21.5 feet in the air.

Answers

Answer:

a) y = x

b) y = 10

c) x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the line passes through the points (-5, -5) and (1, 1).

Step 1. Identify the slope

M = slope

M = change in y/change in x

Two points: (-5, -5) & (1, 1)

M = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

where y2 = 1 y1 = -5 x2 = 1 & x1 = -5

M = (1 - -5)/(1 - -5)

Note: Two negative signs together makes addition!

M = 6/6

M = 1

Step 2. Find the y-intercept

The slope is 1 but then we need a y-intercept. To do this we have to take a look when the first y-intercept happened.

Answer: y-intercept undefined so therefore our final answer is y = x
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
b) the line that passes through (-2, 10) and (3, 10).

If we would’ve graphed this, we can see that they’re in line with the y-axis so there wouldn’t be any slope.

Step 1. Find the slope.

M = slope

M = change in y/change in x

Two points: (-2, 10) & (3, 10)

M = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

M = (10 - 10)/(3 - -2)

M = 0/5

M = 0

Therefore the slope is 0

Step 2. Find the y-intercept

And the y-intercept is 10 obviously so now our answer would be y = 10
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
c) the line parallel to the y-axis that passes through the point (3, -7)

Equation of line parallel to y-axis is x = k

(3, -7) lies on our required line

-> k = 3

The equation of the required line is x = 3

Set A and the universal set U are defined as follows.
U={1,2,3,4,5,6)
A= {2,4,6}
Find the following sets.
Write your answer in roster form or as Ø.

Answers

Part (a)

Answer:   Ø

This is the empty set

------------------

Explanation:

It doesn't matter what set A is composed of. Intersecting any set with the empty set Ø will always result in the empty set.

This is because we're asking the question: "What does some set A and the empty set have in common?". The answer of course being "nothing" because there's nothing in Ø. Not even the value zero is in this set.

We can write Ø as { } which is a set of curly braces with nothing inside it.

=========================================================

Part (b)

Answer:  {1,2,3,4,5,6}

-----------------

Explanation:

When you union the universal set with any other set, you'll get the universal set.

The rule is [tex]A \cup B = B[/tex] where I've made B the universal set to avoid confusion of the letter U and the union symbol [tex]\cup[/tex] which looks nearly identical.

Why does this rule work? Well if an item is in set [tex]\overline{A}[/tex], then it's automatically in set U (everything is in set U; it's the universe). So we're not adding anything to the universe when applying a union involving this largest set.

It's like saying

A = set of stuff inside a persons house[tex]\overline{A}[/tex] = set of stuff outside a persons house (ie stuff that is not in set A)U = set of every item

we can see that [tex]\overline{A} \cup U[/tex] will basically form the set of every item, aka the universal set.

If f(x)= sqrt x, which equation describes the graphed function.

Answers

Answer:

C. y = -f(x) - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given (parent) function is f(x) = √x

The given graph shows a real curve that starts from y = -3, when x = 0 and the y-value increases in magnitude in the negative direction as the x-values increases positively from left to right, by the same amount that the parent function increases from left to right

Therefore;

The graph is real, therefore, the value of x in √x is x ≥ 0, and y ≠ f(-x) + D

Where, D, is the vertical shift

The graph starts at x = 0, y = -3, compared to the parent function, the vertical shift, D = -3

The y-value of the given curve increases in the opposite direction (negatively) as the y-value of the parent function increases in magnitude in the positive direction

Therefore, the equation of the given curve comprises of the reflection of the parent function or -f(x)

The graph shows the reflection of the parent function, across the x-axis, and we have, reflection of the parent function, f(x) which is -f(x)

Therefore, the equation that describes the graphed function is y = -f(x) - 3

Answers

Answer: x=45

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we first need to understand the figure. We know TV and RS are parallel lines. If we extend TV to the left, we get a straight line parallel to RS. By Alternate Interior Angles, We know ∠R is equivalent to ∠T on the very left. Therefore, we can set it equal to 180° and solve.

x+2x+x=180          [combine like terms]

4x=180                  [divide both sides by 4]

x=45

if tanA=2ab/a square-b square.find the value of cosA and sin A​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \displaystyle \cos A = \frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\text{ and } \sin A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 - b^2}[/tex]

And we want to find the value of cos(A) and sin(A).

Recall that tangent is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.

Therefore, the opposite side measures 2ab, and the adjacent side measures a² - b².

Using the Pythagorean Theorem, solve for the hypotenuse:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} c^2 &= a^2 + b^2 \\ \\ c&= \sqrt{(2ab)^2 + (a^2-b^2)} \\ \\ &= \sqrt{(4a^2b^2)+(a^4-2a^2b^2+b^4)} \\ \\ &= \sqrt{a^4 + 2a^2b^2 + b^4 } \\ \\ &= \sqrt{(a^2 +b^2)^2} \\ \\ &= a^2 + b^2\end{aligned}[/tex]

Thus, our hypotenuse is given by a² + b².

Cosine is the ratio between the adjacent side and the hypotenuse. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos A = \frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

And sine is the ratio between the opposite side and the hypotenuse. Thus:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

In conclusion:

[tex]\displaystyle \displaystyle \cos A = \frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2 + b^2}\text{ and } \sin A = \frac{2ab}{a^2 + b^2}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]sec^2A-tan^2A=1\\sec^2A=1+tan^2A=1+\frac{4a^2b^2}{(a^2-b^2)^2} =\frac{(a^2-b^2)^2+4a^2b^2}{(a^2-b^2)^2} =\frac{(a^2+b^2)^2}{(a^2-b^2)^2} \\cos^2A=\frac{(a^2-b^2)^2}{(a^2+b^2)^2} \\cos A=\frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2+b^2} \\sin A=\sqrt{1-cos^2A} =\sqrt{1-(\frac{a^2-b^2}{a^2+b^2} )^2} =\sqrt{\frac{(a^2+b^2)^2-(a^2-b^2)^2}{(a^2+b^2)^2} } =\sqrt{\frac{4a^2b^2}{(a^2+b^2)^2} }=\frac{2ab}{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

How many number less than 300 is exactly divisible by 8, 12, 18?​

Answers

Count how many multiples of 8, 12, or 18 there are in the range {1, 2, 3, …, 300}:

⌊300/8⌋ = 37

⌊300/12⌋ = 25

⌊300/18⌋ = 16

(where ⌊n⌋ denotes the floor of n, i.e. the largest integer that is smaller than n; for instance, 300/8 = 37.5, so ⌊300/8⌋ = ⌊37.5⌋ = 37)

Take pairwise LCMs, as well as the LCM of all three numbers:

LCM(8, 12) = LCM(2³, 2²×3) = 2³×3 = 24

LCM(8, 18) = LCM(2³, 2×3²) = 2³×3² = 72

LCM(12, 18) = LCM(2²×3, 2×3²) = 2²×3² = 36

LCM(8, 12, 18) = LCM(2³, 2²×3, 2×3²) = 2³×3² = 72

Count how many multiples there are of each of these LCMs that are less than 300:

⌊300/24⌋ = 12

⌊300/72⌋ = 4

⌊300/36⌋ = 8

Then, using the inclusion/exclusion principle, the number of numbers less than 300 that are exactly divisible by 8, 12, or 18 is

{multiples of 8} + {multiples of 12} + {multiples of 18}

- {multiples of 24} - {multiples of 72} - {multiples of 36}

+ {multiples of 72}

= 37 + 25 + 16 - 12 - 4 - 8 + 4 = 58
