Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we are going to make an age table:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya
Elliot
Filling the in the Age Now column comes from the first sentence. If Elliot is 2 times Tanya's age and we don't know Tanya's age, then Tanya's age is x and Elliot's age is 2x:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya x
Elliot 2x
Filling in the Age 10 years ago column simply requires that we take their ages in the Age Now column and subtract 10 from each age:
Age Now Age 10 years ago
Tanya x x - 10
Elliot 2x 2x - 10
Since the question is How old is Elliot now based on the fact that 10 years ago....blah, blah, blah, we are using the ages in the 10 years ago column to write our equation. It says:
10 years ago, Elliot was 4 times as old as Tanya. Translated into mathspeak:
2x - 10 = 4(x - 10) and
2x - 10 = 4x - 40 and
-2x = -30 so
x = 15. That means that Elliot is 30 and Tanya is 15
Find the vertical asymptotes of the function (x-1)(x-3)^2(x+1)^2/(x-2)(x+2)(x-1)(x+3)
Answer:
x=2, x=-2, x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
-check if anything simplifies
(x-1)(x-3)²(x+1)² / (x-2)(x+2)(x-1)(x+3), simplify (x-1)
(x-3)²(x+1)² / (x-2)(x+2)(x+3)
-make the denominator 0 to find the asymptotes
(x-2)(x+2)(x+3) = 0
(x-2) =0 gives x = 2 asymptote
(x+2) =0 gives x= -2 asymptote
(x+3) = 0 gives x=- 3 asymptote

BRAINLIEST Which equation could be solved using this application of the quadratic formula?
A.
x2 + 1 = 2x − 3
B.
x2 – 2x − 1 = 3
C.
x2 + 2x − 1 = 3
D.
x2 + 2x − 1 = -3
The quadratic equation that could be solved using the given application of the quadratic formula is x² + 2x - 1 = 3, which in standard form is x² + 2x - 4 = 0. Hence, option C is the right choice.
What is the quadratic formula?A standard quadratic equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0, can be solved using the quadratic formula, which is given as:
[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]
How to solve the question?In the question, we are asked for the quadratic equation, which could be solved using this application of the quadratic formula:
[tex]x = \frac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-4)} }{2(1)}[/tex]
To find the quadratic equation for which we use the quadratic formula
[tex]x = \frac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-4)} }{2(1)}[/tex]
we compare this equation with the standard quadratic formula,
[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]
to get a = 1, b = 2, and c = -4, to get the standard quadratic equation, ax² + bx + c = 0, as (1)x² + (2)x + (-4) = 0, or x² + 2x - 4 = 0.
Now, we convert the given options in the standard form to check for the correct choice:
A. x² + 1 = 2x - 3 ⇒ x² - 2x + 4 = 0, which is not the correct choice.B . x² - 2x - 1 = 3 ⇒ x² - 2x - 4 = 0, which is not the correct choice.C. x² + 2x - 1 = 3 ⇒ x² + 2x - 4 = 0, which is the correct choice.D. x² + 2x - 1 = -3 ⇒ x² + 2x + 2 = 0, which is not the correct choice.Thus, the quadratic equation that could be solved using the given application of the quadratic formula is x² + 2x - 1 = 3, which in standard form is x² + 2x - 4 = 0. Hence, option C is the right choice.

Find the missing length the triangles are similar.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The missing length is 13 because,
Lets say the top triangle is A and the bottom triangle is B.
Triangle A gives us the side GF, and Triangle B gives us the sides TU and ST. Since the triangles are similar(as stated in the problem), we can pair 2 sides GF(A) and TU(B) which is 11:22.(one way I usually figure which sides are similar is by first- matching the hypotenuse, then checking which of the remaining two is longer.. if that made any sense). You can see that their relationship is x2 or /2 (In another word, from A to B is multiplication- ex: 11 * 2 is 22, and from B to A is division- ex 22/2 is 11.) Since the missing number is the hypotenuse of triangle A and you know the Hypotenuse of triangle B all you have to do is divide side TS by 2 to get side SF. So the missing side is 13.

Instructions : X,Y,and Z are midpoints. Find the length of each segment.
Answer:
MZ = 10
ZO = 10
MO = 20
XZ = 9
YZ = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangles are all the same, proportionally.
X is midpoint of 14, so 7
Y for 18, so 9
Triangle with 10 is 7, 9, 10
Full triangle is double at 14, 18, MO
Since angle N is same angle, MO is double 10, so 20
Z is midpoint, so both halves are 10
Because of midpoints, XZ and YZ with 10 form same triangle as half triangle at 9, 7, and 10 respectively.
Find the shortest side of a triangle whose perimeter is 64 if the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3 and the third side is 20 less than the sum if the other two
Answer:
The shortest side of the triangle is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sides the triangle be x, y and z.
From the question, the perimeter of the rectangle is 64, that is
x + y + z = 64 ...... (1)
Also, the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3, that is x:y = 4:3, then we can write that x/y = 4/3 ⇒ 3x = 4y ...... (2)
The third side, z, is 20 less than the sum of the other two, that is
z + 20 = x + y ...... (3)
Substitute equation (3) into (1)
Then,
z + 20 + z = 64
2z +20 = 64
2z = 64 - 20
2z = 44
z = 44/2 k
z = 22
From equation (3)
z + 20 = x + y
Then, k
22 + 20 = x +y
42 = x + y
x = 42 - y ...... (4)
Substitute this into equation 2
3x = 4y
3(42-y) = 4y
126 - 3y = 4y
4y + 3y = 126
7y = 126
y = 126/7
y = 18
Substitute this into equation (4)
x = 42 - y
x = 42 - 18
x = 24
∴ x = 24, y = 18 and z = 22
Hence, the shortest side of the triangle is 18.

Answer:
x = 139
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angle
x = 49 +90
x = 139
An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its interior opposite angles.

find the distance of gap d
Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle d \approx 15.8768[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the distance of d or AB.
From the right triangle with a 35° angle, we know that:
[tex]\displaystyle \tan 35^\circ = \frac{50}{PB}[/tex]
And from the right triangle with a 42° angle, we know that:
[tex]\displaystyle \tan 42^\circ = \frac{50}{PA}[/tex]
AB is PA subtracted from PB. Thus:
[tex]\displaystyle d = AB = PB - PA[/tex]
From the first two equations, solve for PB and PA:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\tan 35^\circ } = \frac{PB}{50} \Rightarrow PB = \frac{50}{\tan 35^\circ}[/tex]
And:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{\tan 42^\circ } = \frac{PA}{50} \Rightarrow PA = \frac{50}{\tan 42^\circ}[/tex]
Therefore:
[tex]\displaystyle d = AB = \frac{50}{\tan 35^\circ} - \frac{50}{\tan 42^\circ}[/tex]
Using a calculator:
[tex]\displaystyle d= AB \approx 15.8768[/tex]

Find g(x), where g(x) is the translation 2 units right and 13 units down of f(x) = -2x + 5.
Answer:
g(x)=x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
When translating a graph, adding the number of units shifts the graph to the left and subtracting the number of units shifts it to the right. Since you need the graph translated 9 units to the left, you will need to add that many units to x
therefore, g(x)=x+9
Answer:

Rectangle ABCD is similar to rectangle JKLM. AB = 12, BC = 8, CD = 12, DA = 8, and JK = 15. What is the scale factor from JKLM to ABCD? Reduce all answers.
Answer:
4/5 or 0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
this problem description is not very precise. it leaves out the definition what corners or sides of JKLM correspond to corners and sides of ABCD.
I assume J and K correlate to A and B, and JK is a long side of JKLM.
so, we are going from JKLM to ABCD.
that means we are going from larger to smaller (as JK = 15 and therefore larger than AB = 12).
what is the scale factor to go from 15 to 12 ?
15 × x = 12
x = 12/15 = 4/5 or 0.8

In a survey of women in a certain country the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches answer the followinv questions about the specified normal distribution
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
In a survey of women in a certain country ( ages 20-29), the mean height was 62.9 inches with a standard deviation of 2.81 inches. Answer the following questions about the specified normal distribution. (a) What height represents the 99th percentile? (b) What height represents the first quartile? (Round to two decimal places as needed)
Solution :
Let the random variable X represents the height of women in a country.
Given :
X is normal with mean, μ = [tex]62.9[/tex] inches and the standard deviation, σ = [tex]2.81[/tex] inches
Let,
[tex]$Z=\frac{X - 62.9}{2.81}$[/tex] , then Z is a standard normal
a). Let the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile is = a
The point a is such that,
[tex]$P(X<a)=0.99$[/tex]
[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{a-62.9}{2.81} \right) = 0.99$[/tex]
From standard table, we get : [tex]P( Z < 2.3263) =0.99[/tex]
∴ [tex]$\frac{(a-62.9)}{281} = 2.3263$[/tex]
[tex]$a= (2.3263 \times 2.81 ) +62.9$[/tex]
= 6.536903 + 62.9
= 69.436903
= 69.5 (rounding off)
Therefore, the height represents the [tex]99th[/tex] percentile = 69.5 inches.
b). Let b = height represents the first quartile.
It is given by :
[tex]P( X < b) =0.25[/tex]
[tex]$P \left( Z < \frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81} \right) = 0.25$[/tex]
From the standard normal table,
[tex]P( Z < -0.6745) =0.99[/tex]
∴ [tex]$\frac{(b-62.9)}{2.81}= 0.6745$[/tex]
[tex]$b=(0.6745 \times 2.81) +62.9$[/tex]
= 1.895345 + 62.9
= 64.795345
= 64.8 (rounding off)
Therefore, the height represents the 1st quartile is 64.8 inches.

Using cross products
4*6 = 2x
24 = 2x
Divide by 2
24/2 =2x/2
12=x
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
When two shapes are similar, you need to find the scale factor of two existing corresponding sides.
For example, you can do 6 and 2.
Divide:
6/2 = 3
The scale factor: 3
Now multiply 4 and the scale factor (3):
4 × 3 = 12
So, x = 12.
