In isoceles triangle the length of a leg is 17cm, and the base is 16cm. Find the length of the altitude to the base

Answers

Answer 1

This triangle has base 16 therefore the sides must be 17cm and 17 cm

When we make a altitude it divides it into two right triangles and there is a property in which the altitude of the isoceles triangle divides the base in 2 equal halves

So the side of the right triangle will be x , 8 , 17

Using pythgoreus theorem

x²+8²=17²

x = √225

x = 15

So the altitude is 15 cm

Create an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (3, 6) and (6, 10).

Answers

Answer: y = 4/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope form of y2 - y1/ x2 - x1 and substitute in the values from the coordinates. In this case, it would be 10-6/6-3, which gives you 4/3. Thus, that would be the slope(m). Then take a pair of coordinates (x,y) and substitute in the equation y = mx + b.

If you take the first coordinate (3,6): 6 = 3(4/3) + b

                                                                6 = 4 + b

                                                                    b = 2

If you take the second coordinate (6, 10) : 10 = 6(4/3) + b

                                                                         10 = 8 + b

                                                                              b = 2

Then, substitute m and b into the equation (y = mx + b) to get your answer.

Verizon charges a $40 sign up fee and $60 a month for their new hotspot. T-Mobile charges a $100 sign up fee and then $40 per month for their new hotspot. After how many months of service will the two company's fees be the same?

Answers

It will take 3 months for both company's fees be the same

Let

y = total charges

x = number of months

Verizon:

y = 40 + 60x

T-Mobile:

y = 100 + 40x

Number of months it will take both companies to charge the same fee

Equate the total charges of both companies

40 + 60x = 100 + 40x

40 - 100 = 40x - 60x

-60 = - 20x

x = -60 / -20

x = 3 months

What were the dimensions of the original photo? 4 inches by 4 inches 6 inches by 6 inches 10 inches by 10 inches 12 inches by 12 inches

Answers

Answer:

6 inches by 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square = 256 inches ²

Given equation:

(x + 10)² = 256

Where,

x = side measure of the original square

(x + 10)² = 256

(x + 10)(x + 10) = 256

x² + 10x + 10x + 100 = 256

x² + 20x + 100 = 256

x² + 20x + 100 - 256 = 0

x² + 20x - 156 = 0

Solve the quadratic equation by factorization

Find two numbers whose product is -156 and sum is 20

The numbers are -26 and 6

x² + 26x - 6x - 156 = 0

x(x + 26) - 6(x + 26) = 0

(x + 26) (x - 6) = 0

x + 26 = 0 or x - 6 = 0

x = -26 or x = 6

Answers

Answer:

  A. 53.5cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the circle is ...

  A = πr²

  A = 3.14(5 cm)² = 78.5 cm²

The area of the triangle is ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(10 cm)(5 cm) = 25 cm²

The shaded area is the difference between the circle area and the triangle area:

  shaded = 78.5 cm² -25 cm² = 53.5 cm²

_____

Additional comment

As with many multiple-choice questions, you can simply pick the answer that is not outlandish. The circle will fit into a square that is 10 cm on a side, so its total area is less than 100 cm² (eliminates choice B).

The shaded area is definitely more than 1/4 of that 100 cm² square, so choices C and D are eliminated, too. The only choice that is not unreasonable is choice A.

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a slope.

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.

Slope = Rise / Run = Δy / Δx = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Solve:

STEP ONE: Identify the points

A (0, 0)

C (a + b, c)

STEP TWO: Apply the formula

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Slope = (c - 0) / (a + b - 0)

Slope = c / a + b

Help. Step By Step Explanation. Ron and two of his friends ate one fourth each of an eight slice pizza. Find remaining slice of the pizza ​

Answers

Answer:

2 remaining slices

Step-by-step explanation:

It sounds complicated so firstly, let's break it down.

Ron and two of his friends

There are three people involved in this question.

ate one fourth each

These three people ate one fourth of the pizza each

of an eight slice pizza.

From a pizza with eight slices

Find remaining slice of the pizza ​

The main question : remaining slice of the pizza

So since there were three people and they ate one fourth of the pizza

( One fourth's [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] by the way )

We need to find out how much have they ate.

Simply multiply 3 with [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] .

3 × [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{4}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

And there you go! Ron and his friends ate [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] of the pizza.

But that's not the end.

The main question : Remaining slice of the pizza

It's an eight slice pizza, so a slice would be : [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

A full eight slice pizza would be one.

So, to find the remaining slice of pizza, simply subtract [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] from 1.

1 -  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{4}{4}[/tex] -  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Now there's a remainding of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of the pizza.

But the question asked for remaining slices.

So, simply convert the denominator into 8!

( Just in case you don't know what's a denominator )

[tex]\frac{numerator}{denominator}[/tex]

So, simply multiply the denominator by 2 to turn 4 into 8!

And also, whenever the denominator is multiplied/ divided by any number, so do the numerator.

[tex]\frac{1 times 2}{4 times 2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{8}[/tex]

Your answer's the numerator, 2!

So your final answer should be 2 remaining slices out of the eight sliced pizza.

i have 17 coins. N of them are nickels and the rest are dimes. write an expression in two different ways for the amount of money that i have.(hint: one is the other simplified)

Answers

Answer:

0.05N - 0.1N + 1.7 (in dollars

1.7 - 0.05N (in dollars)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total number of coins = 17

Number of nickels = N

Number of dimes = 17 - N

1 nickel = 5 cent = $0.05

1 dime = 10 cent = $0.1

The amount of money :

(Value of nickel * number of nickels) + (value of dime * number of dime)

(0.05 * N) + (0.1 * (17-N))

0.05N + 1.7 - 0.1N

0.05N - 0.1N + 1.7

-0.05N + 1.7 = 1.7 - 0.05N

Answers

Answer:

x = 0 and 3 other real roots. See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what you wrote:

[tex] 3x + \dfrac{1}{x^2} - 1 = \dfrac{2}{x} - 2 + \dfrac{x}{x} - 1 [/tex]

I don't think that is what you meant to write.

I think you meant to write this:

[tex] 3x + \dfrac{1}{x^2 - 1} = \dfrac{2}{x - 2} + \dfrac{x}{x - 1} [/tex]

I'm going to answer the second equation because that is what I think you meant.

[tex] 3x + \dfrac{1}{(x - 1)(x + 1)} = \dfrac{2}{x - 2} + \dfrac{x}{x - 1} [/tex]

[tex] 3x(x - 1)(x + 1)(x - 2) + (x - 2) = 2(x - 1)(x + 1) + x(x + 1)(x - 2) [/tex]

[tex] (3x^2 - 6x)(x^2 - 1) + x - 2 = 2x^2 - 2 + x(x^2 - x - 2) [/tex]

[tex] 3x^4 - 3x^2 - 6x^3 + 6x + x - 2 = 2x^2 - 2 + x^3 - x^2 - 2x [/tex]

[tex] 3x^4 - 7x^3 - 4x^2 + 9x = 0 [/tex]

[tex] x(3x^3 - 7x^2 - 4x + 9) = 0 [/tex]

[tex] f(x) = 3x^3 - 7x^2 - 4x + 9 [/tex]

[tex] f(-3) = -123 [/tex]

[tex] f(-2) = -35 [/tex]

[tex] f(-1) = 3 [/tex]

[tex] f(0) = 9 [/tex]

[tex] f(1) = 1 [/tex]

[tex] f(2) = -3 [/tex]

[tex] f(3) = 15 [/tex]

One root is x = 0.

There is a root between x = -2 and x = -1.

There is a root between x = 1 and x = 2.

There is a root between x = 2 and x = 3.

Plot the graph of f(x) = 3x^3 - 7x^2 - 4x + 9 and try to read the other three roots.

Answer:  " y =  -10 . "

___________________

Step-by-step explanation:

___________________

The question:

Find the  value of  "y" when "x" equals 17.

Given the equation:

 - x + y = -27 ;

___________________

We plug in the given value: "17" ; for "x" ; and solve for "y" :

- 17 + y = -27 ;

_____________________

↔ y + (-17) = -27 ;

Rewrite as:

   y − 17  = -27 ;   {since:  "adding a negative value" is the same

                                           as "subtracting a positive value."}.

_____________________

Now, we add "17" to each side of the equation;

to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" :

  y − 17 + 17  = -27 + 17 ;

to get:

  y  =  - 10 .
