Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

you would do 2(5x-10) + 2(8x+4)= 26x-12

Answer:

26x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of all the exterior sides of a figure.

Here, we have a parallelogram, and its sides are 5x - 10, 8x + 4, 5x - 10, and 8x + 4. Adding these, we get:

(5x - 10) + (8x + 4) + (5x - 10) + (8x + 4) = 26x - 12

Thus, the answer is 26x - 12. Note that since the problem doesn't give a value for x, this cannot be simplified further.

Find the length of GV¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ A. 43.92 B. 33.1 C. 41.45 D. 68.87

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figure above is a right angled triangle we can use trigonometric ratios to find GV

To find GV we use cosine

cos∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

From the question

GV is the adjacent

GC is the hypotenuse

So we have

[tex] \cos(37) = \frac{GV}{GC} [/tex]

GC = 55°

GV[tex] \cos(37) = \frac{GV}{55} [/tex]

GV = 55 cos 37

GV = 43.92495

We have the final answer as

GV = 43.92

sasha has some pennies nickels and dimes in her pocket. the number of coins is 18 the expression is 0.01p+0.05n+0.10d represents the value of the coins which is 1.08 she has twice as many dimes as pennies. How many of each coin does Sasha have

Answers

Answer:

3 pennies, 9 nickels, and 6 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three conditions:

(1)         p +        n +        d = 18

(2) 0.01p + 0.05n + 0.10d = 1.08

(3)                                   d = 2p

Multiply (2) by 100 and rearrange (3) to get a standard array.

(4)      p +   n +     d =   18

(5)      p + 5n + 10d = 108

(6)  -2p          +     d =    0

Subtract (4) from (5). This gives

(4)      p +   n +   d =  18

(7)            4n + 9d = 90

(6)  -2p          +   d =   0

Multiply (4) by 2 and add to (6). This gives

(4) p +   n +    d =  18

(7)        4n + 9d = 90

(8)        2n + 3d = 36

Double (8) and subtract from (7). This gives

(4)      p +   n +   d = 18

(7)            4n + 9d = 90

(9)                    3d = 18

Divide (9) by 3. This gives

(10) d = 6

Substitute (10) into (7). This gives

4n + 9(6) = 90

4n +   54 = 90

4n           = 36

(11) n       =    9

Substitute (10) and (11) into (4). This gives

p + 9 + 6 = 18

p +      15 = 18

p              =  3

Sasha has 3 pennies, 9 nickels, and 6 dimes.

Find the measure of ∠BEF
Please HELP ASAP

Answers

Answer:

100°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that angles EFD and AEF are the same as they are alternate interior angles.

We also can note that BEF and AEF are supplementary, meaning their angle lengths will add up to 180°.

So we can create an equation:

(2x + 60) + (3x + 20) = 180

Combine like terms:

5x + 80 = 180

Subtract 80 from both sides

5x = 100

Divide both sides by 5

x = 20.

Now we can use this to find the measure of BEF.

[tex]2\cdot20 + 60[/tex]

[tex]40 + 60 = 100[/tex]

Hope this helped!

Answer:

BEF = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are same side interior angles and same side interior angles add to 180 degrees

2x+60 + 3x+20 = 180

Combine like terms

5x+80 = 180

Subtract 80

5x = 100

Divide by 5

5x/5 = 100/5

x = 20

We want BEF

BEF = 2x+60

      = 2x+60

      = 2*20 +60

     = 40+60

     = 100

23. f(x) is vertically shrank by a factor of 1/3. How will you represent f(x) after transformation?

A. f(3x)
B. 3f(x)
C. 13f(x)
D. f(13x)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

vertical stretching / shrinking has the following transformation.

f(x) -> a * f(x)

when a >  1, it is stretching

when 0< a < 1, it is shrinking.

when  -1 < a < 0, it is shringking + reflection about the x-axis

when a < -1, it is stretching + reflection about the x axis.

Here it is simple shrinking, so 0 < a < 1.

I expect the answer choice to show (1/3) f(x).

However, if the question plays with the words

"shrink by a factor of 1/3" to actually mean a "stretching by a factor of three", then B is the answer (stretch by a factor of three).

Suppose that $2000 is invested at a rate of 2.6% , compounded semiannually. Assuming that no withdrawals are made, find the total amount after 10 years.

Answers

Answer:

$2,589.52

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] A = P(1 + \dfrac{r}{n})^{nt} [/tex]

We start with the compound interest formula above, where

A = future value

P = principal amount invested

r = annual rate of interest written as a decimal

n = number of times interest is compound per year

t = number of years

For this problem, we have

P = 2000

r = 0.026

n = 2

t = 10,

and we find A.

[tex] A = $2000(1 + \dfrac{0.026}{2})^{2 \times 10} [/tex]

[tex] A = $2589.52 [/tex]

Compound interest formula:

Total = principal x ( 1 + interest rate/compound) ^ (compounds x years)

Total = 2000 x 1+ 0.026/2^20

Total = $2,589.52

When a constant force acts upon an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constant force acts upon an object with mass 4kg, the acceleration of the object is 15/ms2. If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is
10kg, what is this object's acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a = 6m/s^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

When mass = 4kg; Acceleration = 15m/s²

Required

Determine the acceleration when mass = 10kg, provided force is constant;

Represent mass with m and acceleration with a

The question says there's an inverse variation between acceleration and mass; This is represented as thus;

[tex]a\ \alpha\ \frac{1}{m}[/tex]

Convert variation to equality

[tex]a = \frac{F}{m}[/tex]; Where F is the constant of variation (Force)

Make F the subject of formula;

[tex]F = ma[/tex]

When mass = 4kg; Acceleration = 15m/s²

[tex]F = 4 * 15[/tex]

[tex]F = 60N[/tex]

When mass = 10kg; Substitute 60 for Force

[tex]F = ma[/tex]

[tex]60 = 10 * a[/tex]

[tex]60 = 10a[/tex]

Divide both sides by 10

[tex]\frac{60}{10} = \frac{10a}{10}[/tex]

[tex]a = 6m/s^2[/tex]

Hence, the acceleration is [tex]a = 6m/s^2[/tex]

Express the product of z1 and z2 in standard form given that [tex]z_{1} = 6[cos(\frac{2\pi }{5}) + isin(\frac{2\pi }{5})][/tex] and [tex]z_{2} = 2\sqrt{2} [cos(\frac{-\pi }{2}) + isin(\frac{-\pi }{2})][/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Solution : 5.244 - 16.140i

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to express the two as a product, we would have the following expression.

[tex]-6\left[\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)\right]\cdot 2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right][/tex]

Now we have two trivial identities that we can apply here,

( 1 ) cos(- π / 2) = 0,

( 2 ) sin(- π / 2) = - 1

Substituting them,

= [tex]-6\cdot \:2\sqrt{2}\left(0-i\right)\left(\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)\right)[/tex]

= [tex]-12\sqrt{2}\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+12\sqrt{2}\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)i[/tex]

Again we have another two identities we can apply,

( 1 ) sin(x) = cos(π / 2 - x )

( 2 ) cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x )

[tex]\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)=\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{2}-\frac{2\pi }{5}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)=\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{2}-\frac{2\pi }{5}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]-12\sqrt{2}(\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}) + 12\sqrt{2}(\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4})[/tex]

= [tex]-6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}+6\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}} i[/tex]

= [tex]-16.13996 + 5.24419i[/tex]

= [tex]5.24419i - 16.13996[/tex]

As you can see option d is the correct answer. 5.24419 is rounded to 5.244, and 16.13996 is rounded to 16.14.

A thin metal plate, located in the xy-plane, has temperature T(x, y) at the point (x, y). Sketch some level curves (isothermals) if the temperature function is given by

T(x, y)= 100/1+x^2+2y^2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]T(x,y) = \dfrac{100}{1+x^2+y^2}[/tex]

This implies that the level curves of a function(f) of two variables relates with the curves with equation f(x,y) = c

here c is the constant.

[tex]c = \dfrac{100}{1+x^2+2y^2} \ \ \--- (1)[/tex]

By cross multiply

[tex]c({1+x^2+2y^2}) = 100[/tex]

[tex]1+x^2+2y^2 = \dfrac{100}{c}[/tex]

[tex]x^2+2y^2 = \dfrac{100}{c} - 1 \ \ -- (2)[/tex]

From (2); let assume that the values of c > 0 likewise c < 100, then the interval can be expressed as 0 < c <100.

Now,

[tex]\dfrac{(x)^2}{\dfrac{100}{c}-1 } + \dfrac{(y)^2}{\dfrac{50}{c}-\dfrac{1}{2} }=1[/tex]

This is the equation for the  family of the eclipses centred at (0,0) is :

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{a^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = \dfrac{100}{c} -1 \ \ and \ \ b^2 = \dfrac{50}{c}- \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Therefore; the level of the curves are all the eclipses with the major axis:

[tex]a = \sqrt{\dfrac{100 }{c}-1}[/tex]  and a minor axis [tex]b = \sqrt{\dfrac{50 }{c}-\dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]  which satisfies the values for which 0< c < 100.

The sketch of the level curves can be see in the attached image below.

Answers

Answer:

A; The first choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation [tex]x^4+6x^2+5=0[/tex] and we want to solve using u-substitution.

When solving by u-substitution, we essentially want to turn our equation into quadratic form.

So, let [tex]u=x^2[/tex]. We can rewrite our equation as:

[tex](x^2)^2+6(x^2)+5=0[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]u^2+6u+5=0[/tex]

Solve. We can factor:

[tex](u+5)(u+1)=0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]u+5=0\text{ and } u+1=0[/tex]

Solve for each case:

[tex]u=-5\text{ and } u=-1[/tex]

Substitute back u:

[tex]x^2=-5\text{ and } x^2=-1[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides for each case. Since we are taking an even root, we need plus-minus. Thus:

[tex]x=\pm\sqrt{-5}\text{ and } x=\pm\sqrt{-1}[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]x=\pm i\sqrt{5}\text{ and } x=\pm i[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the unknown number x. "A number and 2" means that we need to add the numbers, therefore it would be x + 2. "Twice" means 2 times a quantity so "twice a number and 2" would be 2 * (x + 2). "Is" denotes that we need to use the "=" sign and because 50 comes after "is", we know that 50 goes on the right side of the "=" so the final answer is 2 * (x + 2) = 50.

Please give me the answer ASAP The average of 5 numbers is 7. If one of the five numbers is removed, the average of the four remaining numbers is 6. What is the value of the number that was removed Show Your Work

Answers

Answer:

The removed number is 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average of 5 numbers is 7. So you have to find the total values of 5 numbers :

[tex]let \: x = total \: values[/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{5} = 7[/tex]

[tex]x = 7 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]x = 35[/tex]

Assuming that the total values of 5 numbers is 35. Next, we have to find the removed number :

[tex]let \: y = removed \: number[/tex]

[tex] \frac{35 - y}{4} = 6[/tex]

[tex]35 - y = 6 \times 4[/tex]

[tex]35 - y = 24[/tex]

[tex]35 - 24 = y[/tex]

[tex]y = 11[/tex]

Okay, let's slightly generalize this

Average of [tex]n[/tex] numbers is [tex]a[/tex]

and then [tex]r[/tex] numbers are removed, and you're asked to find the sum of these [tex]r[/tex] numbers.

Solution:

If average of [tex]n[/tex] numbers is [tex]a[/tex] then the sum of all these numbers is [tex]n\cdot a[/tex]

Now we remove [tex]r[/tex] numbers, so we're left with [tex](n-r)[/tex] numbers. and their. average will be [tex]{\text{sum of these } (n-r) \text{ numbers} \over (n-r)}[/tex] let's call this new average [tex] a^{\prime}[/tex]

For simplicity, say, sum of these [tex]r[/tex] numbers, which are removed is denoted by [tex]x[/tex] .

so the new average is [tex]\frac{\text{Sum of } n \text{ numbers} - x}{n-r}=a^{\prime}[/tex]

or, [tex] \frac{n\cdot a -x}{n-r}=a^{\prime}[/tex]

Simplify the equation, and solve for [tex]x[/tex] to get,

[tex] x= n\cdot a -a^{\prime}(n-r)=n(a-a^{\prime})+ra^{\prime}[/tex]

When you enter the Texas Turnpike, they give you a ticket showing the time and place of your entry. When you exit, you turn in this ticket and they use it to figure your toll. Because they know the distance between toll stations, they can also use it to check your average speed against the turnpike limit of 65 mph. On your trip, heavy snow limits your speed to 40 mph for the first 120 mi. At what average speed can you drive for the remaining 300 mi without having your ticket prove that you broke the speed limit?

Answers

Answer:

87 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance needed is 120 mi + 300 mi and that is 420 mi.

Driving at 65 mph means that it would take

420 / 65 hours to reach his destination.

6.46 hours .

at the first phase, he drove at 40 mph for 120 mi, this means that it took him

120 / 40 hours to complete the journey.

3 hours.

the total time needed for the whole journey is 6.46 hours, and he already spent 3 hours in the first phase. To keep up with the 6.46 hours required, in the second phase, he has to drive at a speed of

6.46 - 3 hours = 3.46 hours.

300 mi / 3.46 hours => 86.71 mph approximately 87 mph

Therefore, he needs to drive at not more than 87 mph to keep up with the journey while not breaking his speed limit

[tex]\frac{6}{sin58} =\frac{c}{sin13}[/tex]

[tex]c = sin13(\frac{6}{sin58})[/tex]

c = 1.59154

Step 2: Find a using Law of Sines

[tex]\frac{6}{sin58} =\frac{a}{sin109}[/tex]

[tex]a = sin109(\frac{6}{sin58} )[/tex]

a = 6.68961

A restaurant hands out a scratch-off game ticket with prizes being worth purchases at the restaurant. The back of the ticket lists the odds of winning each dollar value: 0.05 for $10, 0.04 for $25, 0.01 for $50, and 0.003 for $100. What are the odds that the ticket is worth at least $25?

Answers

Answer: 0.05412

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : Odds of having an event is given by  [tex]o=\dfrac{p}{1-p}[/tex], where p = probability that event happens.

In terms to find p , we use [tex]p=\dfrac{o}{1+o}[/tex]

Given, he back of the ticket lists the odds of winning each dollar value: 0.05 for $10, 0.04 for $25, 0.01 for $50, and 0.003 for $100.

Let X be the worth of ticket.

Then, the probability that the ticket is worth at least $25 =

[tex]P(X\geq 25)=P(X=25)+P(X=50)+P(X=100)[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{0.04}{1+0.04}+\dfrac{0.01}{1+0.01}+\dfrac{0.003}{1+0.003}\\\\=0.05135[/tex]

The odds that the ticket is worth at least $25 = [tex]\dfrac{0.05135}{1-0.05135}[/tex]

=0.05412

hence, the odds that the ticket is worth at least $25 is 0.05412 .

Given a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 6 cm and a leg of 4cm, what is the measure of the other leg of the triangle rounded to the tenths?

Answers

Answer:

4.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

A represents the leg we already know, which has a length of 4 cm. C represents the hypotenuse with a length of 6 cm:

4^2+b^2=6^2, simplified: 16+b^2=36

subtract 16 from both sides:

b^2=20

now find the square root of both sides and that is the length of the other leg.

sqrt20= 4.4721, which can be rounded to 4.5

Answer:

4.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

One leg is unknown and the other is 4 cm. The hypotenuse is 6 cm.

[tex]a=a\\b=4\\c=6[/tex]

Substitute the values into the theorem.

[tex]a^2+4^2=6^2[/tex]

Evaluate the exponents first.

4^2= 4*4= 16

[tex]a^2+16=6^2[/tex]

6^2=6*6=36

[tex]a^2+16=36[/tex]

We want to find a, therefore we must get a by itself.

16 is being added on to a^2. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 16 from both sides of the equation.

[tex]a^2+16-16=36-16\\\\a^2=36-16\\\\a^2=20[/tex]

a is being squared. The inverse of a square is a square root. Take the square root of both sides.

[tex]\sqrt{a^2}=\sqrt{20} \\\\a=\sqrt{20} \\\\a=4.47213595[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 7 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 4 in the tenth place to a 5.

[tex]a=4.5[/tex]

Add appropriate units. In this case, centimeters.

a= 4.5 cm

The length of the other leg is about 4.5 centimeters.
