If triangle LMQ is similar to triangle LNP, calculate the length of segment LP.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

LP = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{LM}{LN}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{LQ}{LP}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{LQ}{LQ+QP}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{LQ}{LQ+9 }[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

5LQ = 2(LQ + 9) = 2LQ + 18 ( subtract 2LQ from both sides )

3LQ = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

LQ = 6

Then

LP = LQ + QP = 6 + 9 = 15

Answers

Given:

The temperature on a mountain peak was 7°F at 6:00 p.m.

By 8:00 p.m., the temperature had dropped to 0°F.

To find:

The temperature at 11:00 p.m. if the temperature continued to drop at about the same rate.

Solution:

Time between 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. is 2 hours.

Change in temperature in 2 hours is -7°F.

Change in temperature in 1 hours is [tex]-\dfrac{7}{2}^\circ[/tex]F.

Time between 8:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. is 3 hours.

Change in temperature in 3 hours is [tex]3\times \dfrac{-7}{2}^\circ[/tex]F, i.e., [tex]-\dfrac{21}{2}^\circ[/tex]F.

Now, the temperature at 11:00 p.m is:

[tex]0-\dfrac{21}{2}=-10.5[/tex]

Therefore, the temperature at 11:00 p.m. is -10.5°F.

Note: All options are incorrect.

To paint a wooden cube, Pinocchio needs 4 grams of paint. When it is dry, he cut the cube into 8 smaller pieces of smaller size. How much paint additional paint does Pinocchio need to paint the unpainted surfaces of the smaller cubes

Answers

Answer:

9 grams of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

6×8=48

48÷4= 12

48-12=36

36÷4=9

first multiply 6 by 8 because a cube has six faces and you cut that cube eight times

second after you cut that you will have 48 faces and for every six faces there are 4 grams of paint so you divide 48 by 4 and you get 12 this means that 12 of the faces are painted

next you subtract 12 from 48 and you get 36 this means that 36 faces are not painted

lastly you divide 36 by 4 and you will get 9 grams of paint

Find the values of x and y if (-x + 5, 1) = (-y, 2x - 5y).

Answers

Answer:

x = 8, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Equating corresponding x and y coordinates , then

- y = - x + 5 ( multiply through by - 1 )

y = x - 5 → (1)

2x - 5y = 1 → (2)

Substitute y = x - 5 into (2)

2x - 5(x - 5) = 1 ← distribute and simplify left side

2x - 5x + 25 = 1

- 3x + 25 = 1 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

- 3x = - 24 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = 8 - 5 = 3

Another of Bhaskara's problems results in a quadratic equation Parthava was enraged and seized a certain number of arrows to slay Karna. He expended one-half of them in defending himself. Four times the square root of the number of arrows were discharged against the horses. With six more, he transfixed Shalya, the charioteer. With three more, he rent the parasol, the standard, and the bow; and with the last one he pierced the head of Karna. How many arrows did Parthava have?

Answers

Answer:

Parthava had 100 arrows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define N as the number of arrows that Parthava originally has.

He uses one-half of them in defending himself, so he used N/2 arrows

Now he uses four times the square root of the number of arrows, so now he uses:

4*√N

Then he uses 6

Then he uses 3

Then he uses the last one.

If we add all these numbers of arrows that he used, we should get the initial number of arrows that he used, then:

N/2 + 4*√N  + 6 + 3 + 1  = N

Now we have an equation that we can try to solve.

First, let's move all the terms to the same side:

N/2 + 4*√N + 6 + 3 + 1 - N  = 0

now we can simpify it:

(N/2 - N) + 4*√N + (6 + 3 + 1) = 0

-(1/2)*N + 4*√N + 10 = 0

Now we can define a new variable x = √N

Then we have: x^2 = N

now we can replace these new variables in our equation to get:

-(1/2)*x^2 + 4*x + 10 = 0

Now we just have a quadratic equation.

Remember that for a quadratic equation of the form:

0 = a*x^2 + b*x + c

The solutions were given by:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2a}[/tex]

Then in our case, the solutions will be:

[tex]x = \frac{-4 \pm \sqrt{4^2 - 4*(-1/2)*10} }{2*(-1/2)} = \frac{-4 \pm 6 }{-1} = 4 \pm 6[/tex]

So there are two solutions:

x = 4 + 6 = 10

x = 4 - 6 = -2

And remember that x = √N

Then x should be positive, then we take x = 10 as our solution here.

then we can use the equation:

x = 10 = √N

then

10^2 = √N^2 = N

10^2 = 100 = N

Parthava had 100 arrows.

Answer:

3.71 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Heron's formula:

area = 0.25 * √((a + b + c) * (-a + b + c) * (a - b + c) * (a + b - c))

so h = 0.5 * √((a + b + c) * (-a + b + c) * (a - b + c) * (a + b - c)) / c

a = 6

b = 10

c = 14

a+b+c = 30

-a+b+c = 18

a-b+c = 10

a+b-c = 2

x = h = 0.5×sqrt(30×18×10×2)/14 = sqrt(30×18×10×2)/28 =

= sqrt(10800)/28 = sqrt(400×9×3)/28 =

Magnitude of angle D = 170
Because,
Sum of interior angles of a pentagon = 540 degree
That is,
Angle A + angle B + angle C + angle D + angle E = 540 degree
87degree + 125 degree + 63 degree + 95 degree + angle D = 540 degree

So that gives angle D = 170 degree

Hope this helps.
ArmyCee:)

Answer:

m<D = 170°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a pentagon, the angles add up to 540°. This means the sum of <A, <B, <C, <D, and <E add up to that, and we can write an equation:

m<A + m<B + m<C + m<D + m<E = 540°

We are already given the measures of all the angles except D, so we can substitute them in:

87° + 125° + 63° + m<D + 95° = 540°

Now, we can simplify and solve for <D:

m<D + 370° = 540°

m<D = 170°
