solve for y
[tex]2y - 3 = \sqrt{ {3y}^{2} - 10y + 12} [/tex]
absurd answers will be reported!!​

Answers

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2y - 3 = [tex]\sqrt{3y^2-10y+12}[/tex]

square both sides to remove sqrt bracket

(2y - 3)^2 = ( [tex]\sqrt{3y^2-10y+12}[/tex] )^2

simplify both sides

(2y - 3)(2y - 3) = [tex]3y^2[/tex] - 10y + 12

[tex]4y^2[/tex] - 12y + 9 = [tex]3y^2[/tex] - 10y + 12

bring all value to left side

[tex]y^2[/tex] - 2y - 3 = 0

factor

(y - 3)(y + 1)

solve for y

y = 3, y = -1

When plugged back into the equation, only y = 3 is true

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation :

[tex]2y - 3 = \sqrt{ 3y² - 10y + 12} [/tex]

Swap the sides both of the equation.

[tex]\sqrt{ 3y² - 10y + 12} = 2y - 3 [/tex]

To remove the brackets of equations square both side and simplify .

3y² - 10y + 12 = 4y² - 12y + 9

Move the expression to left-hand side and change its sign.

3y² - 10y + 12 - 4y² + 12y - 9 = 0

collect like terms

3y² - 4y² - 10y + 12y + 12 - 9 = 0

-y² + 2y + 3 = 0

Change the sign of expression. because it helps to solve.

y² - 2y - 3 = 0

Splits the term -2y

y² + y -3y - 3 = 0

Factor out y from the first pair and -3 from second pair of expression.

y ( y + 1 ) - 3 ( y + 1) = 0

Factor out y + 1 from the expression.

( y + 1 ) ( y - 3 ). = 0

When product and factors equals 0. at least one factor is 0.

y + 1 =0

y - 3 = 0

Solve for y

y = -1 and y = 3

If we plug the 3 as y in the expression we find that y = 3 is the true solution of this expression.

This equation has one solution which is y = 3.

Find the measurement of ∠D and ∠C

Answers

Answer:

∠D = 125° and ∠C = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

We should first solve for variable x, which should give us angle C, and then solve for angle D.

[tex]3x+15=180[/tex][tex]3x=165[/tex][tex]x=55[/tex]°

Thus ∠C = 55°

Knowing that supplementary angles add to 180°, we set up the equation:

[tex]55+D=180[/tex][tex]D=125[/tex]°

Thus ∠D = 125°

Help me with this....After drawing a histogram....How do u find the class in which the median lies in a histogram....​

Answers

Answer:

Get all the values of the histogram and put them in order:

For example 2,5,7,1,7,3  becomes 1,2,3,5,7,7 and then you get the middle number, which is in this case (3+5)/2=3.5

Then see which of the readings lie on 3.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

The histogram will have a count associated with each class. You may have to read the count from the vertical scale of the graph. If it is a histogram of relative frequencies, each class will have a fraction or percentage instead of a count.

Find the total of all counts. Determine what half that number is. If the total is odd, then round up to the nearest integer. This is the index number of the median value.

Add up the counts in the classes starting at one side of the graph, working toward the other side. (Left-to-right is the usual direction for doing this.) When you find the class that increases the total to a value equal or greater than the index number, this is the class that contains the median.

__

If the histogram is a relative frequency histogram, the class that brings the total to 50% is the one containing the median.

__

There may be cases where the total count is even, and the total of all of the classes up to a point is exactly equal to the index number you're looking for. In that case, the median is between that class and the next. Here's an example:

  class 1: count 3

  class 2: count 5

  class 3: count 4

  class 4: count 4

Total count: 3+5+4+4 = 16. Median index = 16/2 = 8

Total of classes 1 and 2 = 3+5 = 8. This means exactly half of the represented values are in class 2 or below, and half are in class 3 or above. If you had access to the actual data values, you would find the median as the average of the 8th and 9th data values (when they are sorted into increasing order). Here, the median might be estimated as the value halfway between the upper bound of class 2 and the lower bound of class 3.

__

2nd example

Consider the same histogram as above, but with a count of 3 in class 4. This brings the total count to 15, and the index of the median is 15/2 = 7.5, rounds to 8. Again, the 8th data value (median) is in class 2. There is no ambiguity in this case.

A ball is thrown straight out at 80 feet per second from an upstairs window that's 15 feet off the ground. Find the ball's horizontal distance from the window at the moment it strikes the ground.
a. 0.96825
b. Can't be found
c. 77.46
d. 6.33
e. 212.23

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the horizontal distance the ball travels, we need to know first how long it took to hit the ground. We will find that time in the y-dimension, and then use that time in the x-dimension, which is the dimension in question when we talk about horizontal distance. Here's what we know in the y-dimension:

a = -32 ft/s/s

v₀ = 0 (since the ball is being thrown straight out the window, the angle is 0 degrees, which translates to no upwards velocity at all)

Δx = -15 feet (negative because the ball lands 15 feet below the point from which it drops)

t = ?? sec.

The equation we will use is the one for displacement:

Δx = [tex]v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex] and filling in:

[tex]-15=(0)t+\frac{1}{2}(-32)t^2[/tex] which simplifies down to

[tex]-15=-16t^2[/tex] so

[tex]t=\sqrt{\frac{-15}{-16} }[/tex] so

t = .968 sec (That is not the correct number of sig fig's but if I use the correct number, the answer doesn't come out to be one of the choices given. So I deviate from the rules a bit here out of necessity.)

Now we use that time in the x-dimension. Here's what we know in that dimension specifically:

a = 0 (acceleration in this dimension is always 0)

v₀ = 80 ft/sec

t = .968 sec

Δx = ?? feet

We use the equation for displacement again, and filling in what we know in this dimension:

Δx = [tex](80)(.968) +(0)(.968)^2[/tex] and of course the portion of that after the plus sign goes to 0, leaving us with simply:

Δx = (80)(.968)

Δx = 77.46 feet

An exterior angle is the supplement of one of the angles. In this case, there is only 1 angle that qualifies -- <CAB which is the supplement of BAF.

All the other choices are not supplements to any of the interior angles such as

Legally, there is an agreement that puts a limit to the total number of licenses that should be in use. When you use more licenses than you should, this could be regarded as theft. Normally the best thing that you should do is to ask purchasing that they make payments for another 10 licenses. It is very likely that this software company would know of this violation. as the users try to register this software, the software company could get knowledge of this.

There is a group of 15 people are ordering pizza. Each person wants 2 slices and each pizza has 10 slices. How many pizzas should they order?

Answers

Answer:

3 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can calculate how many slices are necessary. Each person wants two slices, so for each person, we must add 2 slices. We can add 2 15 times, or multiply 2 by 15 to get 2 * 15 = 30

We now know that we need 30 slices of pizza. Next, we need to figure out how many pizzas we need given this information.

For each pizza, we can add 10 slices, as there are 10 slices of pizza.

For the first pizza, we have 10 slices

For the second, we have 10+10 = 20 slices

For the third, we have 10+10+10 = 10 * 3 = 30 slices. Perfect!

Another way of figuring out the number of pizzas we need would be to divide 30 by 10, and 30/10=3 would equal the number of pizzas. We need to figure out how many pizzas we need to have 30 slices, so we can divide here.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On the day of the canteen, 800 coupons were sold, the price of each coupon was RM 30 and RM 50 respectively. The amount of money earned from the sale of coupons was RM30000. How many copies of RM30 and RM50 coupons were sold?

Let:

RM 30 = x

RM 50 = y

x + y = 800 - - - (1)

30x + 50y = 30000 - - - (2)

From (1)

x = 800 - y

Put x = 800 - y in (2)

30(800 - y) + 50y = 30000

24000 - 30y + 50y = 30000

24000 + 20y = 30000

20y = 30000 - 24000

20y = 6000

NOTE: The perimeter of ABC-31

Answers

Given:

The figure of a triangle.

The perimeter of the triangle ABC is 31.

To find:

The value of x in the given triangle.

Solution:

Three sides of the triangle ABC are AB, BC, AC are their measures are [tex]3b-4,2b+1,b+10[/tex] respectively.

The perimeter of the triangle ABC is 31.

[tex]AB+BC+AC=31[/tex]

[tex](3b-4)+(2b+1)+(b+10)=31[/tex]

[tex]6b+7=31[/tex]

Subtract 7 from both sides.

[tex]6b=31-7[/tex]

[tex]6b=24[/tex]

[tex]b=\dfrac{24}{6}[/tex]

[tex]b=4[/tex]

Now, the measures of the sides are:

[tex]AB=3b-4[/tex]

[tex]AB=3(4)-4[/tex]

[tex]AB=12-4[/tex]

[tex]AB=8[/tex]

[tex]BC=2b+1[/tex]

[tex]BC=2(4)+1[/tex]

[tex]BC=8+1[/tex]

[tex]BC=9[/tex]

And,

[tex]AC=b+10[/tex]

[tex]AC=4+10[/tex]

[tex]AC=14[/tex]

Using the law of cosines, we get

[tex]\cos A=\dfrac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}[/tex]

[tex]\cos A=\dfrac{(AC)^2+(AB)^2-(BC)^2}{2(AC)(AB)}[/tex]

[tex]\cos A=\dfrac{(14)^2+(8)^2-(9)^2}{2(14)(8)}[/tex]

[tex]\cos A=\dfrac{179}{224}[/tex]

Using calculator, we get

[tex]\cos A=0.7991[/tex]

[tex]A=\cos ^{-1}(0.7991)[/tex]

[tex]x=36.9558^\circ[/tex]

[tex]x\approx 37.0^\circ[/tex]

Therefore, the value of x is 37.0 degrees.

The shifted parent function will look like ...

  y = a·b^x +c

where c is the horizontal asymptote. Using the two points we found, we have ...

  -2 = a·b^0 -3 . . . . . using (x, y) = (0, -2)
