The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Which equation can be used to find the side lengths if the longest side measures 6.2 cm?

The Perimeter Of A Scalene Triangle Is 14.5 Cm. The Longest Side Is Twice That Of The Shortest Side.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex] 9.3 + b = 14.5 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Longest side of ∆ = 2a = 6.2 cm

If the shortest side is, a, and we are told that the longest side is twice the shortest side, therefore, length of shortest side is

The sum of the 3 sides = perimeter = 14.5 cm

Thus,

[tex] a + 2a + b = 14.5 cm [/tex]

Plug in the values of a and b

[tex] 3.1 + 6.2 + b = 14.5 [/tex]

The equation that can be used to find the side lengths is [tex] 9.3 + b = 14.5 [/tex]

A survey of 100 people found that 35 people exercise in
the morning, 45 people exercise in the afternoon, and 20
people exercise at night. Tara claims that 35:55, 45:80,
and 20:65 are possible ratios from this data. Jim claims
that 35:100, 45:100, and 20:100 are possible ratios from
this data. Who is correct? Explain.​

Answers

Answer:

Jim's claim is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Total survey=100 people

Morning exercise=35 people

Afternoon exercise=45 people

Night exercise=20 people

Morning exercise : Total survey

=35 : 100

Afternoon exercise : Total survey

=45 : 100

Night exercise : Total survey

=20 : 100

Jim's claim is correct because in finding the ratio, one has to relate it with the total people involved in the survey.

Tara's claim however seems to relate one variable with two other variables

Example:

35 : 55

Morning exercise : (morning exercise + night exercise)

35 : (35+20)

35 : 55

Answer:

Sample Response: Jim is correct because 35:100, 45:100, and 20:100 are part-to-whole comparisons. There are other possible part-to-part ratios from the data.

A carpenter has a 10 1/2 foot wood plank. He cuts off 4 1/4 feet to replace a deck board as well as 3 2/3 feet to repair a step. He uses the rest of the plank for a shelf. How many feet of wood does the carpenter have for the shelf? PLEASE SHOW YOUR WORK AND EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER PLEASE I WILL MARK YOU BRAINIEST.

Answers

Answer:

The carpenter used 2 7/4 feet of plank for the shelf

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of plank =10 1/2 foot

He used

For Deck board=4 1/4 feet

Step=3 2/3 feet

Shelf=x feet

Total plank=deck board + step + shelf

10 1/2 = 4 1/4 + 3 2/3 + x

Change the fractions

21/2 = 17/4 + 11/3 + x

Add 17/4 + 11/3

21/2 =51+44/12 + x

21/2= 95/12 + x

Collect like terms

21/2 - 95/12 =x

126-95/12 = x

31/12=x

2 7/12 =x

Therefore, the carpenter used 2 7/4 feet of plank for the shelf

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of plank =10 1/2 foot

He used

For Deck board=4 1/4

Step=3 2/3

Shelf=x

Total plank=deck board + step + shelf

10 1/2 = 4 1/4 + 3 2/3 + x

The inverse is 1/2x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x-4

y= 2x-4

To find the inverse

Exchange x and y

x = 2y-4

Solve for y

Add 4 to each side

x+4 = 2y

Divide by 2

x/2 + 4/2 = 2y/2

1/2x +2 = y

The inverse is 1/2x +2

For which function is the ordered pair (4, 12) not a solution? y = 3 x y = 16 - x y = x + 8 y = 8 - x

Answers

if an ordered pair is a solution, it should satisfy the equation.

see the first option

[tex]y=3x[/tex] , if you put $x=4$ and $y=12$

you'll get $12=12$ which is true.

now the last option, $y=8-x$ put $x=4$ and $y=12$

$12=8-4\implies 12\ne4$ thus it is not a solution.

So option 4 is correct

Answer:

Last one:

y = 8 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 8 - x

Replace x and y in this function

12 = 8 - 4

12 = 4 (impossible)

So, (4 , 12) is not solution for: y = 8 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

100x^2 -250xy +75x

Rewriting

25*4*x*x -25*10 *x*y + 25*3*x

As we can see each term contains 25x

The greatest common factor is 25x

25x( 4x -10y+3)

Answer:

25x

Step-by-step explanation:

GCF means the greatest common factor.

First, we write the factors of these numbers.

=> 100x^2 = 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * X * X

=> 250xy = 5 * 5 * 5 * 2 * X * Y

=> 75x = 5 * 5 * 5 * x

=> Next, we need to take the numbers that come in all sets.

=> 5 , 5 , x

Next, we multiply these numbers.

=> 25x

So, the GCF of these numbers are 25x

While sailing, Jacob is 150 feet from a lighthouse. The angle of elevation from his feet on the boat (at sea level) to the top of the lighthouse is 48°

What can you conclude about the height of the lighthouse, with respect to Jacob's distance from the lighthouse? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;

Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)

Tan 48° = s ÷ 150

⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°

      = 150 × 1.1106

     = 166.59

s ≅ 166.6 feet

Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.

Answer:

The height of the lighthouse is approximately 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation forms a right triangle so the angles would be 90 and 48

90+48+x=180

138+x=180

x=180-138

x=42

The graph of function f is shown. Function g is represented by the equation. Look at the graph and picture!

Answers

Answer: B) different y intercepts; same end behavior

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

Explanation:

The graph shows the y intercept is 4 as this is where the green curve crosses the vertical y axis.

The y intercept of g(x) is 6 which can be found by plugging x = 0 into the g(x) function

g(x) = 4(1/4)^x + 2

g(0) = 4(1/4)^0 + 2

g(0) = 6

So we can see the y intercepts are different.

----------

However, the end behaviors are the same for each function. The left side of f(x) goes up forever to positive infinity. The same is true for g(x). You could use a graphing calculator or a table to see this. As x heads to negative infinity, y goes to positive infinity.

In terms of symbols, [tex]x \to -\infty, y \to \infty[/tex]

----------

For the right side of f(x), it slowly approaches the horizontal asymptote y = 2. It never actually reaches this y value. The same happens with g(x). The portion 4(1/4)^x gets smaller but never gets to 0 so overall 4(1/4)^x+2 gets closer to 2. We can say that as x approaches infinity, y approaches 2.

Flying against the wind, a jet travels 1650 miles in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same jet travels 3480 miles in 4 hours. What is the rate of the jet in still air and what is the rate of the wind?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rate of the plane be x

The rate of the wind be y

Against the wind

Resultant velocity = x-y

1650/3 = x - y

550 = x - y

With the wind

Resultant velocity = x + y

3480/4 = x + y

870 = x + y

Solve equation simultaneously

Add both equations

870+550 = x+y+x-y

1420 = 2x

x = 710

x + y = 870

y=870 - 710

y = 160

The rate of jet in still air = 710 mph

The rate of wind = 160 mph

Answer:

When two inscribed angles in one circle both equal 75°, the two angles must intercept the same arc that measures 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the Inscribed Angles Theorem, the measure of an intercepted arc is twice the measure of the inscribed angle that intercepts it in a circle.

Consequently, the theorem also Holds that the measure of two inscribed angles intercepting the same arc, are congruent. In other words, both angles together are the same, and their sum would give you the measure of the arc they both intercept.

In the diagram shown in the attachment below, we have 2 inscribed angles, angle A and B. They both intercept the same arc of 75°.

Therefore, we can conclude that the measure of both angles equal 75°, which is the same as the measure of the arc they intercept.

Angle A = Angle B

m<A + m<B = measure of intercepted arc = 75°

Please answer this question now

Answers

Answer:

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure given, angle D intercepts arc ABC. According to the Inscribed Angle Theorem:

m < D = ½(ABC) = ½(AB + BC)

Thus,

[tex] 56 = \frac{1}{2}(AB + 40) [/tex]

Solve for AB

[tex] 56 = \frac{AB + 40}{2} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2

[tex] 56*2 = \frac{AB + 40}{2}*2 [/tex]

[tex] 112 = AB + 40 [/tex]

Subtract both sides by 40

[tex] 112 - 40 = AB + 40 - 40 [/tex]

[tex] 72 = AB [/tex]

Arc AB = 72°
