Answer:
They would never intersect because they are parallel lines. You can tell they are parallel lines because they have the same slope and they have a different y-intercept. However, this doesn't mean that there was no solutions, there were, thats how i was able to tell what their slopes and y-intercepts were. So if there is an answer that you can choose from that explains that they won't intersect because they are parallel then that is the correct answer. It may be C, but I would see if there is another option.

y < x + 2 and y > x − 1
y < 2x + 8 and y ≥ −x − 3

The point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] is a solution of the system given by [tex]y<2x+8[/tex] and [tex]y \geq -x-3[/tex]
Given point: [tex](-2,2)[/tex]
Given systems:
[tex]y>-2x+2[/tex] and [tex]y>x+5[/tex] [tex]y<x+2[/tex] and [tex]y>x-1[/tex] [tex]y<2x+8[/tex] and [tex]y \geq -x-3[/tex] [tex]y<2x+3[/tex] and [tex]y \geq -2x-5[/tex]To find: The system to which the given point is a solution
If a point is a solution of a system, then the coordinates of the point satisfies all the equation(s) or inequation(s) of the system. So, we can substitute the x & y coordinates of the given point into the inequalities of each of the given systems and check if the inequalities are satisfied by the coordinates of the point.
(1) [tex]y>-2x+2[/tex] and [tex]y>x+5[/tex]
Substitute the coordinates of the point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] into the inequalities of the system.
Put [tex]x=-2,y=2[/tex] in [tex]y>-2x+2[/tex] to get,
[tex]2>-2(-2)+2[/tex]
[tex]2>4+2[/tex]
[tex]2>6[/tex]
The above inequality is clearly impossible and thus, the coordinates of the given point does not satisfy this inequality.
This implies that the given point is not a solution of this system.
(2) [tex]y<x+2[/tex] and [tex]y>x-1[/tex]
Substitute the coordinates of the point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] into the inequalities of the system.
Put [tex]x=-2,y=2[/tex] in [tex]y<x+2[/tex] to get,
[tex]2<-2+2[/tex]
[tex]2<0[/tex]
The above inequality is clearly impossible and thus, the coordinates of the given point does not satisfy this inequality.
This implies that the given point is not a solution of this system.
(3) [tex]y<2x+8[/tex] and [tex]y \geq -x-3[/tex]
Substitute the coordinates of the point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] into the inequalities of the system.
Put [tex]x=-2,y=2[/tex] in [tex]y<2x+8[/tex] to get,
[tex]2<2(-2)+8[/tex]
[tex]2<-4+8[/tex]
[tex]2<4[/tex]
This is a true inequality. Then, the given point satisfies the first inequality of the system.
We will now check if the point satisfies the second inequality of the system.
Put [tex]x=-2,y=2[/tex] in [tex]y \geq -x-3[/tex] to get,
[tex]2 \geq -(-2)-3[/tex]
[tex]2 \geq 2-3[/tex]
[tex]2 \geq -1[/tex]
This is also a true inequality. Then, the given point also satisfies the second inequality of the system.
Thus, the given point is a solution of this system.
(4) [tex]y<2x+3[/tex] and [tex]y \geq -2x-5[/tex]
Substitute the coordinates of the point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] into the inequalities of the system.
Put [tex]x=-2,y=2[/tex] in [tex]y<2x+3[/tex] to get,
[tex]2<2(-2)+3[/tex]
[tex]2<-4+3[/tex]
[tex]2<-1[/tex]
The above inequality is clearly impossible and thus, the coordinates of the given point does not satisfy this inequality.
This implies that the given point is not a solution of this system.
Thus, we can see that the coordinates of the given point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] satisfies the inequalities of the third system only.
Then, the point [tex](-2,2)[/tex] is a solution of the system given by [tex]y<2x+8[/tex] and [tex]y \geq -x-3[/tex].

What is the probability of a red on this spinner?
Be sure to reduce.
Answer:
2/8 or 1/4 simplified
Step-by-step explanation:
If you count how many equal sections there are, you will see there are 8, and 2 or those 8 sections are red so that would easily give you your answer, 2/8.
And to simplify it divide both the top and the bottom by 2 and that gives you 1/4.
Hope the helps! :)
The probability of a red on this spinner would be 1/4.
Used the concept of probability that states,
The term probability refers to the likelihood of an event occurring. Probability means possibility.
Given that,
A spinner is shown in the image.
Since there are a total of 8 parts with different colors.
And, the number of red colors on this spinner is 2.
Hence, the probability of a red on this spinner would be,
P = 2 / 8
P = 1 / 4
Therefore, the probability is 1/4.

I did it wrong can someone help me
Answer:
Width = 4 cm
Length = 8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Let [tex]l[/tex] be equal to the length of the rectangle.
Let [tex]w[/tex] be equal to the width of the rectangle.
1) Determine equations to find the length and width
We're given that the length is two times the length of the width:
[tex]l=2w[/tex]
We're also given that the area of the rectangle is 32 cm². Recall that the area of a rectangle is [tex]A=lw[/tex]:
[tex]A=lw\\32=lw[/tex]
Now, we have our two equations:
[tex]\displaystyle \left \{ {{l=2w} \atop {32=lw}} \right.[/tex]
2) Solve for the width using substitution
[tex]\displaystyle \left \{ {{l=2w} \atop {32=lw}} \right.[/tex]
Replace [tex]l[/tex] in the second equation with [tex]2w[/tex] from the first equation:
[tex]32=(2w)w\\32=2w^2[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2 to isolate w²:
[tex]16=w^2[/tex]
Take the square root of both sides to isolate w:
[tex]\pm4=w[/tex]
Because width cannot be negative, w=4. Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 4 cm.
3) Solve for the length
[tex]\displaystyle \left \{ {{l=2w} \atop {32=lw}} \right.[/tex]
Now, that we have the width (4 cm), we can solve for the length by plugging it back into one of the equations. Either of the equations work, but we can use the first:
[tex]l=2w\\l=2(4)\\l=8[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 8 cm.
3) Draw the rectangle
We can use what you had before as a foundation. You drew a rectangle with width 4 cm and length 7 cm. To draw the correct rectangle, add another row on top to make it 4 cm by 8 cm.
I hope this helps!

A pendulum's height is modeled by the function h(t) = 4 cos(pi/4*t) + 8 where h is the
measure of the pendulum's height in feet and t is the number of seconds since the
maximum height. How many seconds does it take the pendulum to complete one
full swing?
===========================================================
Explanation:
The general cosine template is
y = A*cos(B(t - C)) + D
where in this case
A = 4B = pi/4C = 0D = 8We only really need to worry about the B value. To get the period T, we do the following
T = 2pi/B
T = (2pi)/(pi/4)
T = 2pi * (4/pi)
T = 8
Note how the pi terms canceled. The period is 8 seconds, which is the length of one full cycle. This is the time it takes for the pendulum to do one full swing (eg: start at the right, swing to the left all the way, then swing back to the right again).
The result of 8 we got has nothing to do with the D = 8 value (this D value could be any other number and T = 8 would still be the case as long as B doesn't change of course).
please help, i don't understand the subject so i need an answer to help me out:) i will give brainliest to a good answer.
To be honest, I don't think it has anything to do with the exponent part at all. Instead, I think it has to do with the fact that integers are inherently easier to grasp compared to fractions (which is exactly what rational numbers are).
For instance, it's much easier to say 2+3 = 5 than it is to say 1/2 + 1/4 = 3/4
So going back to the exponent example, it's easier to say
x^2*x^3 = x^(2+3) = x^5
than it is to say
x^(1/2)*x^(1/4) = x^(1/2+1/4) = x^(3/4)
So that's my opinion as to why rational exponents are more tricky to grasp compared to integer exponents. Of course, everyone learns math differently so maybe some find fractions easier than others.
Samira and Sonia each have a bag containing 20 sweets. In each bag, there are 5 red, 6 green and 9 yellow sweets.
(a)
(b)
Samira chooses one sweet at random from her bag.
Write down the probability that she chooses a yellow sweet.
[1] Sonia chooses two sweets at random, without replacement, from her bag.
(i) Show that the probability that she chooses two green sweets is 3 . 38
(ii) Calculate the probability that the sweets she chooses are not both the same colour.
Step-by-step explanation:
there must be some typos here. but I try to address the right issues.
there is nothing under (a). so, really nothing to answer.
(b)
there are 20 sweets in her bag. 9 if the 20 are yellow.
so, the probability is the ratio of desired possibilities vs. total possibilities.
that is, tada! 9/20
that is the probabilty for Samira to pick a yellow sweet.
[1] (i)
again, 20 sweets to start with.
6 are green.
when she picks the first one, her probability to pick a green one is 6/20 = 3/10 = 0.3
and now, under the assumption that this came true, she picks another sweet.
this time she had only 19 left, and 5 of them are green.
so, this probabilty is 5/19
now both events need to happen for the case we are discussing. there is no overlapping, no ors, ifs and buts. it is just the product of both probabilities.
3/10 × 5/19 = 15/190 = 3/38
I think that is what the description asks for.
(ii)
that probability is
first selection is red and second is not red +
first selection is green and second is not green +
first selection is yellow and second is not yellow
so,
red and not red
5/20 = 1/4 red
15/19 not red (there are still 15 sweets of other colors in the bag, but again now only 19 total).
red and not red = 1/4 × 15/19 = 15/76 = 0.1974
green and not green
6/20 = 3/10 = green
14/19 = not green
green and not green = 3/10 × 14/19 = 52/190 = 26/95 =
= 0.2737
yellow and not yellow
9/20 = yellow
11/19 = not yellow
yellow and not yellow = 9/20 × 11/19 = 99/380 = 0.2606
so, now assuming up all 3 possibilities ("or" = sum) gives us the general possibility of selecting two different colors
= 0.7316

We see that the constant ratio between successive terms is \blue{-8}−8start color #6495ed, minus, 8, end color #6495ed. In other words, we can find any term by starting with the first term and multiplying by \blue{-8}−8start color #6495ed, minus, 8, end color #6495ed repeatedly until we get to the desired term.
Let's look at the first few terms expressed as products:

Given that cos 75 = X, show that cos 105 = −X
Step-by-step explanation:
cos(90) = 0
around this point the cos function "mirrors" with opposite signs. cos(<90) is positive and cos(>90) is negative.
but |cos(90-a)| = |cos(90+a)| for 0 <= a <= 90
75 = 90 - 15
105 = 90 + 15
so, a = 15
and because of
|cos(90-a)| = |cos(90+a)| for 0 <= a <= 90
cos (90-15) = cos(75) = -cos(90+15) = -cos(105)

Question 10 The hypotenuse of a right triangle is I m longer than the longer leg. The other leg is 7 m shorter than the longer leg. Determine the lengths of the three sides of the triangle. (3 marks)
Answer:
5, 12, 13
Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the longer leg then x + 1 is the hypotenuse and x - 7 the shorter leg
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
x² + (x - 7)² = (x + 1)² ← expand using FOIL
x² + x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1
2x² - 14x + 49 = x² + 2x + 1 ( subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides )
x² - 16x + 48 = 0 ← in standard form
(x - 4)(x - 12) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
x - 12 = 0 ⇒ x = 12
x = 4 , then x - 7 = 4 - 7 = - 3 ← not possible
x = 12, then x - 7 = 12 - 7 = 5 and x + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13
The lengths of the 3 sides are
longer leg = 12 m , shorter leg = 5 m and hypotenuse = 13 m
An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 18 feet. If a square whose sides have the same length as one side of the triangle is built, what will be the area of the square?
Answer:
36 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
equilateral means all sides are equally long.
a triangle has 3 sides.
in our case they are all equally long.
and their sum (all 3 sides together) is the perimeter
P = 18 = 3 × side length
side length = 18/3 = 6 ft
a square with the same side length (6) had then an area of
side length × side length = 6×6 = 6² = 36 ft²
it is important to remember : a length is measured e.g. in feet (ft). an area is then meshed in square-feet (ft²). it is important to add this to the calculated numbers to express the right dimension of these numbers.
