======================================================

Explanation:

AC = 13 and BC = 8

Those two facts must mean AB = AC-BC = 13 - 8 = 5.

Similarly, CD = BD - BC = 12 - 8 = 4

So,

AD = AB + BC + CD

AD = 5 + 8 + 4

AD = 17

------------

Another way to approach this problem would be to say

AD = AC + BD - BC

AD = 13 + 12 - 8

AD = 17

This works because when we add up AC with BD, we're double counting the portion from B to C. So this is why we subtract off BC to correct for this overcounting so to speak.

Answer:

Segment AD is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know AC is 13, BC is 8, and BD is 12. We need the lengths of AB and CD.

To get AB's length, subtract BC's length from AC's length. We should get 5 for the length of AB (13 - 8 = 5).

To get CD's length, subtract BD's length from BC's length. We should get 4 for the length of CD. (12 - 8 = 4)

Now to add AB, BC, and CD. Add 5, 8, and 4 to get 17. (13 + 4 = 17)

The length of Segment AD is 17.

Hi there!

In order to find the answer to this question we must know about:

The angles of intersecting chords theorem

The theorem states that if two chords intersect the angles formed at the intersection is equal to half the sum of its intercepted arc and it's vertical angle's intercepted arc.

Angle ABC is formed by intersecting chords meaning that the measure of angle ABC is equal to half the sum of its intercepted arc + it's vertical angle's intercepted arc ( angle ABC vertical angle is angle EBD. Angle EBD's intercepting arc is arc ED. )

Angle ABC intercepted arc is AC

Hence Angle ABC = 1/2 ( arc AC + arc ED)

Arc ED = 44 and arc AC = 82

Thus, angle ABC = 1/2(82 + 44)

82 + 44 = 126

126/2=63

Hence Angle ABC = 63

Answer:

n = [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 right triangles inside the larger right triangle are similar , so corresponding sides are in proportion

[tex]\frac{8}{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{n}{4}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

n² = 32 ( take the square root of both sides )

n = [tex]\sqrt{32}[/tex]

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x−8)=x+5x

Distribute

2x - 16 = x+5x

Combine like terms

2x-16 = 6x

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-16 = 6x-2x

-16 = 4x

Divide by 4

-16/4 = 4x/4

-4 =x

Answer:

D: (5, 0) and (4, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts of a parabola are the points where the parabola intersect the x-axis (horizontal axis). Therefore, the y-value of the x-intercepts are always 0. Since coordinates are written (x, y), we can immediately eliminate answers B and C.

Next, we look at the x-coordinates of where the parabola intersects the x-axis. We can see clearly that the parabola crosses the x-axis at [tex]x=4[/tex] and [tex]x=5[/tex]. Therefore, the x-intercepts of the given parabola are (4, 0) and (5, 0).

The equation of line -4x - 3y = 8 is perpendicular to the given line of the equation which is the correct answer would be option (C).

Perpendicular lines are two lines that cross one other and create a 90-degree angle.

The equation of the line below which is given in the question

4x - 3y = 8

We have to determine which is perpendicular to the given equation of the line

First, we need to find the slope of the given equation.

4x - 3y = 8

- 3y = - 4x + 8

Divided by -3 into both sides of the above equation,

y = (- 4/-3)x + 8/(-3)

y = (4/3)x - 8/3

Comparing the above equation with the standard form of line y = mx + b

Here m is the slope of the line,  in this case, m = 4/3.

As per option (C),

- 3y = 8 + 4x

Divided by -3 into both sides of the above equation,

y = - 4/3x - 8/3

Here the slope of this line is - 4/3

Therefore, the equation of line -4x - 3y = 8 is perpendicular to the given line of the equation.

Hence, the correct answer would be option (C).

Answer:

87 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

24 + 18 + 15 + 30

the 30  is 2(1/2 * 5 * 6)

I'll do problem 1 to get you started.

set A = multiples of 3 between 5 and 25 = {6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24}

there are 7 items in set A, so we can say n(A) = 7

set B = multiples of 5 between 5 and 25 = {5,10,15,20,25}

Here we have n(B) = 5

set C = multiples of 3 and 5, between 5 and 25 = {15}

n(C) = 1 which we can rewrite as n(A and B) = 1.

-----------------------------------------

To summarize so far,

From those three facts, then we can say,

n(A or B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A and B)

n(A or B) = 7 + 5 - 1

n(A or B) = 11

There are 11 values between 5 and 25 that are multiples of 5, multiples of 3, or both.

Those 11 values are: {5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25}

This is out of 25-5+1 = 21 values overall which are in the set {5,6,7,...,24,25}

So we have 11 values we want out of 21 overall, which leads to the probability 11/21

Final Answer:   11/21

Answer:

Solution given:

total outcomes between 5 to25 inclusive

n[T]=25-5+1=21

multiple of 5n[5]=5,10,15,20,25=5

multiple of 3n[3]=6,9,12,15,18,21,24=7

now

probability of getting multiple of 5p[5]=5/21

and

probability of getting multiple of 3 p[3]=7/21=1/3

again

the probability that the number is a multiple of 5 or 3 P[5or 3]=p[5]+p[3]=5/21+1/3=4/7

Answer:

[tex]g(x) = x^2+7x+12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are given a function f and we want to shift it a units horizontally, the resulting function will be f(x - a), where a positive a is a shift rightwards and a negative a is a shift leftwards.

We have the function:

[tex]f(x)=x^2+3x+2[/tex]

And we want to shift it two units to the left.

Since we want to shift it two units to the left, a = -2. Therefore, our new function, let's call it g, must be f(x - (-2)) or f(x + 2). Substitute:

[tex]g(x) = f(x+2)=(x+2)^2+3(x+2)+2[/tex]

Simplify. Expand:

[tex]g(x) = (x^2+4x+4)+(3x+6)+2[/tex]

Combine like terms. Hence:

[tex]g(x) = x^2+7x+12[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Mark two points on the line in the graph.

2) Determine the rise and run. Rise ---> difference in y-coordinates. (y2-y1)

Run -----> difference in  x-coordinates (x2 - x1)

3) Plugin the values in the below mentioned formula.

[tex]Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

1.If slope = 0, then the line is parallel to x-axis.

2. If slope is undefined, then the line is parallel to y-axis.

3. If slope is +ve, then the line slant upwards and if slope = -ve, then the line slant downwards.

Given:

The ratio of the measures of the sides of a triangle is 3:4:5.

Its perimeter is 48 inches.

To find:

The scale factor as a decimal, and the measure of each side of the triangle.

Solution:

Let x be the scale factor. Then the measures of sides of the triangle are 3x, 4x and 5x.

The perimeter of the triangle is 48 inches. It means the sum of all sides of the triangle is 48 inches.

[tex]3x+4x+5x=48[/tex]

[tex]12x=48[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12.

[tex]x=\dfrac{48}{12}[/tex]

[tex]x=4[/tex]

Now, the measures of sides are:

[tex]3x=3(4)[/tex]

[tex]3x=12[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]4x=4(4)[/tex]

[tex]4x=16[/tex]

And,

[tex]5x=5(4)[/tex]

[tex]5x=20[/tex]

Therefore, the scale factor is 4 and the measures of sides are 12, 16 and 20.

Answer:

The scale factor is 4.

Sides are 12 inches, 16 inches, 20 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 3 : 4 : 5 and the perimeter is 48 inches.

Let the scale is p.

The length of sides is 3 p , 4 p and 5 p.

So, the perimeter is

3 p + 4 p + 5 p  = 48

12 p = 48

p = 4

So, the scale factor is 4.

Sides are 12 inches, 16 inches, 20 inches.
