A carpenter is making a backyard deck. In the measurements, he has determined that he needs to make a support triangle with an area 46m2. He knows that the base must be 1 less than 2 times the height. If the base is represented by 2x-1 and height equals x. Find the equation that correctly shows the area of the triangle.

A Carpenter Is Making A Backyard Deck. In The Measurements, He Has Determined That He Needs To Make A

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

base = 3x - 1

height = x

area of triangle = (1/2)bh

22 = (1/2)(3x-1)(x)

44 = (3x-1)(x)

44 = 3x^2-x

0 = 3x^2-x-44

0 = 3x^2-12x+11x-44

0 = (3x^2-12x)+(11x-44)

0 = 3x(x-4)+11(x-4)

0 = (x-4)(3x+11)

x = {-11/3, 4}

throw out the negative solution (extraneous) leaving

x = 4 m (height)

.

Base:

3x - 1 = 3(4) - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

Six teachers and 12 students volunteer for a committee to discuss extra-curricular activities. How many committees of 5 people can be made if:

a) there must be exactly 3 students on the committee

b) there must be at least one teacher and at least one student on the committee

Answers

Answer:

a) 11,880

b) 7,770

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of teachers that volunteer = 6 teachers

The number of students that volunteer = 12 students

The number of people in the committee = 5 people

a) The exact number of student on the committee = 3 student

Therefore, the number of teachers in the committee of 5 = 5 - 3 = 2

The number of teachers in the committee = 2 teachers

We get;

The number of committees that can be made = ₁₂C₃ × ₆C₂ = 792×15 = 11,880

b) When there is at least one teacher and at least one student on the committee, we have;

₁₂C₄ × ₆C₁ + ₁₂C₃ × ₆C₂ + ₁₂C₂ × ₆C₃ + ₁₂C₁ × ₆C₄ = 7,770

The number of committees having at least one teacher and at least one student = 7,770

Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour and then rode back home in a bus at 24 miles per hour. If her total traveling time was 14 hours, how far was it to the mall?

Answers

Given:

Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour and then rode back home in a bus at 24 miles per hour.

Total traveling time was 14 hours.

To find:

The distance between Melinda's house and mall.

Solution:

Formula used:

[tex]Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

Let x miles be the distance between Melinda's house and mall.

Melinda walked to the mall at 4 miles per hour. So, the time taken by Melinda is [tex]\dfrac{x}{4}[/tex] hours.

Speed of bus is 24 miles per hour. So, the time taken by bus is [tex]\dfrac{x}{24}[/tex] hours.

Total traveling time was 14 hours.

[tex]\dfrac{x}{4}+\dfrac{x}{24}=14[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{6x+x}{24}=14[/tex]

[tex]7x=14\times 24[/tex]

Divide both sides by 7.

[tex]\dfrac{7x}{7}=\dfrac{14\times 24}{7}[/tex]

[tex]x=2\times 24[/tex]

[tex]x=48[/tex]

Therefore, the mall is 48 miles far from Melinda's house.

Use a calculator to determine the unknown angle, to the nearest degree, in each of the following expressions.

tan A = 5/4

cos G = 0.88

Answers

Answer:

Using a calculator;

A is approximately 51.34°

G is approximately 28.36°

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

The given trigonometric ratio is presented as follows;

tan A = 5/4

Therefore, the angle, A = arctan(5/4)

Using a calculator,  the value of A is found as follows;

1. Ensure the angle mode of the calculator is set to the correct value (the selected mode here is degrees)

2. Entering 5/4 into the calculator, using the keypad

3 . Selecting the arctan button to give, A ≈ 51.34°

Part 2

The given trigonometric ratio is cos G = 0.88

Therefore, G = arccos(0.88)

1. Ensure the angle mode of the calculator is set to the correct value (the selected mode here is degrees)

2. Enter 0.88 into the calculator by typing

3. Select arccos from the function menu, to give

arcos(0.88) = G ≈ 28.36°.

given the preimage and image, find the dilation scale factor​

Answers

Given:

The preimage and image of a triangle in the given figure.

To find:

The dilation scale factor.

Solution:

From the given figure it is clear that the vertices of the triangle ABC are A(-2,-2), B(-1,2) and C(2,1).

The vertices of the triangle A'B'C' are A'(-4,-4), B'(-2,4) and C'(4,2).

If a figure is dilated by factor K with (0,0) as the center of dilation, then

[tex](x,y)\to (kx,ky)[/tex]

Let the scale factor be K, then the image of point A is:

[tex]A(-2,-2)\to A'(k(-2),k(-2))[/tex]

[tex]A(-2,-2)\to A'(-2k,-2k)[/tex]

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is A'(-4,-4).

[tex]A'(-2k,-2k)=A'(-4,-4)[/tex]

On comparing both sides, we get

[tex]-2k=-4[/tex]

[tex]k=\dfrac{-4}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]k=2[/tex]

Therefore, the dilation scale factor is 2.

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (6, -9) with the given slope m = 3.

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x - 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = 3 , then

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, - 9) into the partial equation

- 9 = 18 + c ⇒ c = - 9 - 18 = - 27

y = 3x - 27 ← equation of line

Answer Y=3x - 27 step by step

1) Se o 5o e o 9-o termos de uma PA são, respectivamente, 40 e 68, então a razão r da progressão é: a) r = 6 b) r = 7 c) r = 9 d) r = 11 e) r = 12 2) Inserindo-se 6 números entre 72 e 107, de modo que a sequência (72, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7 ,107) seja uma progressão aritmética, tem-se a3 igual a: a) 78 b) 79 c) 80 d) 81 e) 82

Answers

Answer:

1) b) r = 7

2) e) 82

Step-by-step explanation:

Progressão aritmética:

Em uma progressão aritmética, a diferença entre termos consecutivos é sempre a mesma, chamada de razão.

O n-ésimo termo de uma PA é dado por, tomando o primeiro termo como referência:

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)r[/tex]

Tomando o m-ésimo termo como referência, tem-se que:

[tex]a_n = a_m + (n-m)r[/tex]

1) Se o 5o e o 9-o termos de uma PA são, respectivamente, 40 e 68, então a razão r da progressão é:

[tex]a_5 = 40, a_9 = 68[/tex]. Então:

[tex]a_n = a_m + (n-m)r[/tex]

[tex]68 = 40 + 4r[/tex]

[tex]4r = 28[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{28}{4} = 7[/tex]

Então a resposta correta é dada pela alternativa b.

2) Inserindo-se 6 números entre 72 e 107, de modo que a sequência (72, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, a7 ,107) seja uma progressão aritmética, tem-se a3 igual a:

O primeiro termo é [tex]a_1 = 72[/tex] e o oitavo termo é [tex]a_8 = 107[/tex]. Com isso, é possível encontrar a razão.

[tex]a_n = a_1 + (n-1)r[/tex]

[tex]107 = 72 + 7r[/tex]

[tex]7r = 35[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{35}{7} = 5[/tex]

Então, o terceiro termo é:

[tex]a_3 = a_1 + 2r = 72 + 2(5) = 82[/tex]

Logo, a resposta correta é dada pela alternativa e.

Candice bought 6 dozen eggs and broke 9 eggs how many eggs did she have left

Answers

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

12x6=72

72-9=63

the answer is 63

Answer: 63 eggs


Step 1: Find initial amount of eggs

Before we can solve for how many eggs are left, we must first find out how many eggs Candice initially had. We are told she bought six dozen eggs. Since a dozen is twelve, we can find out how many eggs she had by multiplying twelve and six. Let’s do this now.

6×12= 72

Step 2: Find solution

Now let’s solve for how many eggs Candice has left. We know that she bought 72 eggs, and that she broke 9. To find the answer, we need to subtract 9 from 72.

72-9= 63
