Point C is on the midpoint of a section of highway, represented by AB. If AB = 32 miles,
AC = 4x miles, and CB = 12 + x miles, explain three different ways
that
you
could
solve for x.

Answers

Answer 1

To solve this question, we need to understand the concept of midpoint.

Doing this, we get that x is equals to 4 miles., and we find it using each of these three ways:

[tex]AC = CB[/tex][tex]AC = \frac{AB}{2}[/tex][tex]CB = \frac{AB}{2}[/tex]

Segment:

C is the midpoint of the segment AB, which means that:

The distance of the initial point A to the midpoint C is the same as the distance of the midpoint C to the final point B.

[tex]AC = CB[/tex]

The distance of the midpoint to one of the endpoints is half the total distance, that is:

[tex]AC = \frac{AB}{2}[/tex]

[tex]CB = \frac{AB}{2}[/tex]

Solution:

We have to solve for x, considering one of the three relations.

Considering:

[tex]AC = 4x, CB = 12 + x[/tex]

[tex]AC = CB[/tex]

[tex]4x = 12 + x[/tex]

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

[tex]3x = 12[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{12}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

The solution for x is x = 4 miles.

Coordinates of C and D are (-14 , 6) and (x , 13) respectively.Given x is a positive integer and the distance CD is 25 units.Find the value of x.​

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The vector CD is equal to (X-(-14); 13-6)= (x+14; 7)

2) The module of the vector CD is equal to diatance CD=25. It is equal to

 sqrt ((x+14)(x+14)+7*7) from the formula of module (with coordinates).

25= sqrt ((x+14)(x+14)+7*7)

625= (x+14)*(x+14)+49

625= x^2+28x+196+49

X^2+28X-380=0

a=1 b=28 c=-380

D= b*b-4ac= 28*28-4*1*(-380)= 784+1520= 2304

sqrt D= sqrt2304=48

x1= (-28-48)/2= -38

x2= (-28+48)/2= 10

But x1<0 it is negative and it is not suitable, x2>0 it is positive, so answer is 10.

A midpoint is a point that divides a given line into two equal halves.The answers to the questions are:

1. BC = 89

b. AB = 45

c. AC = 44

2. The coordinate of I is 2.5

3. J = 19

4. MQ = 32

5. NO = 13

6. NO = 23

b. MN = 25

A line segment can be divided into different fractions. Where the point that divides the line segment into equal parts is the midpoint. however, number line is a system that shows the location or positions of all directed numbers.

The given questions can be solved as follows:

1. Given that point A is between BC and AB = 4x -3, BC = 7x + 5, AC = 5x - 16

But,

BC = AB + AC

7x + 5 = (4x -3) + (5x - 16)

          = 9x - 19

7x + 5 = 9x - 19

19 + 5 = 9x - 7x

24 = 2x

x = [tex]\frac{24}{2}[/tex]

x = 12

So that;

a. BC = 7x + 5

         = 7(12) + 5

BC = 89

The value of BC is 89.

b. AB = 4x -3

         = 4(12) - 3

AB = 45

Thus AB has a value of 45.

c.  AC = 5x - 16

          = 5(12) -16

 AC = 44

The value of AC is 44.

2. Given that H is the mid point of GI, and G = 8, I = -3.

Then;

I = 2.5

The coordinate of I is 2.5

3. A midpoint is a point that divides a line segment in to two equal halves. Given that J is the midpoint of KL. KL = 38

J = [tex]\frac{KL}{2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{38}{2}[/tex]

J = 19

The value of the midpoint J is 19.

4. It can be deduced from the conditions given in the question that:

  MQ = MN + NO + OP + PQ

          = 8 + 8 + 16      (NB: OP + PQ = 16)

MQ = 32

Thus, value of MQ is 32.

5. Since P is the mid point of NQ, and OP = 11, OQ = 35

 Then;

PQ  = OQ - OP

      = 35 - 11

PQ = 24

Since, PQ = NP =24

Then;

NO = NP - OP

      = 24 - 11

NO = 13

NO has a length of 13.

6. NO = 2y + 11, OP = 3y - 2, NP = 6y + 3 and MP = 64.

But,

NO + OP = NP

(2y + 11) + (3y - 2) = 6y + 3

5y + 9 = 6y + 3

9 - 3 = 6y - 5y

y = 6

So that;

a. NO = 2y + 11

          = 2(6) + 11

NO = 23

Here, the value of NO is 23.

b. MN = MP - NP

But,

NP = 6y + 3

     = 6(6) + 3

NP = 39

Then;

MN = 64 - 39

MN = 25

So that MN has a value of 25.

Answer:

cos N = 7/25 =.28

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

cos theta = adj side / hypotenuse

cos N = MN/ LN

We need to find the ad

Using the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

MN^2 + 48^2 = 50^2

MN^2 + 2304 =2500

MN^2 = 2500-2304

MN^2 =196

Taking the square root

MN =14

cos N = MN/ LN

cos N = 14/50

cos N = 7/25

Answer: CosN (0.28)

A²+B²=C²

In this case we are trying to find the base so

C²-A² = B²

So 50² subtract 48²= B²

2,500 subtract 2,304 = 196

Square root of 196 = 14

Now we have all 3 sides of the triangle we find

Soh Cah Toa

Cah means Cos=Adjacent / hypotenuse

First we identify the Angle before we can decide which of the sides is labelled opposite anx adjacent

We have Angle N and we know our hypotenuse (The longest side of the triangle)

The opposite of the angle would be our opposite and the one thats niether our opposite or hypotenuse is our adjacent

In this cse the angle we solved for B²= 14

Again back "Cah" Cos= Adjacent/hypotenuse

So, 14/50 = 0.28

He had to return 3 calculators that were never sold and pay a ​$2 charge for each returned calculator​ (although the initial cost is​ refunded). What is the​ storeowner's profit?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

25*-30= -$750

Second: He sells 22 of those calculators for $35 each, so he is making money.

22*35= $770

Third: With the remaining three calculators, he must pay $2 each for returned calculators, so he is losing money again.

3*-2= -6

Add all the costs and sales together, and you get 770-750-6= $14 profit

However, the problem does not say if he gets his money back for the 3 returned calculators. In that case if he did, you would add the cost of each of those calculators to his profit. 30*3= 90

Let x/y = k, where x and y are both odd. Then x = ky. If k is even, then x is even, a contradiction. So, k must be odd. The integer ratio of two odd numbers is odd, so (3) is one of the true statements.
