What Is The Measure Of X?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2

(x+5) *x = 6^2

x^2 +5x = 36

Subtract 36 from each side

x^2 +5x - 36 = 0

Factor

( x-4) (x+9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x-4 = 0  x+9 =0

x = 4  x=-9

Cannot be negative since that is negative length

x=4

Match the pairs of values of f(x) and g(x) with the corresponding values of h(x) if h(x)= f(x)/g(x).

f(x) = x2 - 9, and g(x) = x - 3

f(x) = x2 - 4x + 3, and g(x)= x - 3

f(x) = x2 + 4x - 5, and g(x) = x - 1

f(x) = x2 - 16, and g(x) = x - 4

3.h(x) = x+4—>
4.h(x) = x-1—>

Answers

Answer:

1. h(x) = x + 5—> f(x) = x² + 4x - 5, and g(x) = x - 1

2. h(x) = x + 3 —> f(x) = x² - 9, and g(x) = x - 3

3. h(x) = x + 4—> f(x) = x² - 16, and g(x) = x - 4

4.h(x) = x - 1—> f(x) = x² - 4x + 3, and g(x)= x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A) f(x) = x² - 9, and g(x) = x - 3

We are told that; h(x) = f(x)/g(x)

f(x) = x² - 9 can be factorized to;

f(x) = (x + 3)(x - 3)

Thus; h(x) = (x + 3)(x - 3)/(x - 3)

(x - 3) will cancel out to give;

h(x) = x + 3

B) f(x) = x² - 4x + 3, and g(x)= x - 3

x² - 4x + 3 can be factorized as;

(x - 1)(x - 3)

Thus; f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 3)

h(x) = (x - 1)(x - 3)/(x - 3)

h(x) = x - 1

C) f(x) = x² + 4x - 5, and g(x) = x - 1

x² + 4x - 5 can be factorized as;

(x - 1)(x + 5)

Thus; f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 5)

h(x) = (x - 1)(x + 5)/(x - 1)

h(x) = x + 5

D) f(x) = x² - 16, and g(x) = x - 4

x² - 16 can be expressed as;

(x + 4)(x - 4)

Thus; f(x) = (x + 4)(x - 4)

h(x) = (x + 4)(x - 4)/(x - 4)

h(x) = x + 4

Brian says that ABCD is a right triangle. Is he correct? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number) Explain.
17 m
21.7 m
С
D 13.5 m

Answers

21.7²=17²+13.5²

21.7²=289+182.25

21.7²=471.25

21.7=√471.25

21.7=21.7

22(to the nearest whole number)

Answer:  Yes, it is a right triangle

But only if you rounded everything to the nearest whole number.

Otherwise, it's a bit off (but fairly close).

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

Explanation:

If that was a right triangle, then a^2+b^2 = c^2 would be the case (pythagorean theorem). The a,b,c refers to the sides of the triangle. The 'c' is always the longest side, where 'a' and 'b' can be in any order you want.

We have

a = 13.5b = 17c = 21.7

Which leads to

a^2+b^2 = c^2

(13.5)^2+(17)^2 = (21.7)^2

182.25 + 289 = 470.89

471.25 = 470.89

We don't get the same thing on both sides, so we don't have a right triangle.

However, your teacher mentions to round the results to the nearest whole number. The 471.25 on the left side becomes 471, while the 470.89 becomes 471.

So while the equation 471.25 = 470.89 is definitely false, both sides are close enough that they round to 471 = 471 which is true.

In other words, this isn't a right triangle but it's close enough to one. Based on this rounding criteria, Brian is correct.

The basketball team did not record how many baskets each player made during the last game. Zulie remembers that she made three
times as many baskets as Aileen. Melody knows that she made four more baskets than Aileen. Zoe thinks that she made 3 fewer baskets than Aileen.
Abigail is sure that she made the same number of baskets as Zoe. Altogether the five players made 82 baskets. How many baskets did each player
make?

Answers

Answer:

There is a mistake in the question. x results in a decimal answer, which is not possible for number of hoops.

Step-by-step explanation:

Aileen: x

Zulie: 3x

Melody: 4 + x

Zoe: x - 3

Abigail: x - 3

82 = (x) + (3x) + (4+x) + (x-3) + (x-3)

Combine Like Terms

x + 3x + x + x + x = 7x

4 - 3 - 3 = -2

7x - 2 = 82

7x = 80

x results in a decimal answer, which is not possible for number of hoops.

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to 2x-y+6=0 through the point (0, -2)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first rearrange so it's easier to look at: y = 2x +6

To find the perpendicular slope you need to find the negative reciprocal of m so flip and change the sign:

m= -1/2

Next plug in the point (0, -2) into the point-slope equation of a line:

[tex]y2 - y1 = \frac{ - 1}{2} (x2 - x1) \\ [/tex]

y-(-2) = -1/2 (x-0)

y + 2 = -1/2x

y = -1/2x - 2

Therefore the equation is y = -1/2x - 2

Hannah has a part-time job making holiday wreaths. This week, she made x medium wreaths, twice as many large wreaths as medium wreaths, and 12 as many small wreaths as medium wreaths. In terms of x, how many wreaths did Hannah make this week?

Answers

Answer:

Total number of wreaths = 3.5 wreaths

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of medium wreaths = x

Number of larger wreaths = 2[Number of medium wreaths]

Number of small wreaths = [1/2][Number of medium wreaths]

Find:

Total number of wreaths

Computation:

Total number of wreaths = Number of medium wreaths + Number of large wreaths + Number of small wreaths

Total number of wreaths = Number of medium wreaths + 2[Number of medium wreaths] + [1/2][Number of medium wreaths]

Total number of wreaths = x + 2x + 0.5x

Total number of wreaths = 3.5 wreaths

A ping pong ball is released from a height of 60 centimeters (cm) and bounces to a height that is 3/4 the previous height. What function estimates the height, H, in cm of the ping pong ball after x bounces?

Enter a number in each empty box to correctly complete the function.

H = ____ (____)^x

Answers

Multiply the starting height (60) by the height of each bounce (3/4) raised to the number of bounces (x)

H = (60)(3/4)^x

The answer to the given expression is:

H = 60(3/4)^x

What do we mean by exponents?

A number is raised by another number which is called the power/exponent which implies that the number is multiplied by itself for that many number of times.

How do we solve for H?

After every release, it bounces 3/4th of the previously released height.

After 1st bounce H = 60(3/4)

After 2nd bounce, it will be 3/4th of the previous H,

∴ H = 60(3/4)(3/4) = 60(3/4)^2

Similarly, after the 3rd bounce, it will be 3/4th of the previous H,

∴ H = 60(3/4)^2 * (3/4) = 60(3/4)^3

So it goes on like this. After x bounces,

H = 60(3/4)^x

What expression is equal to COS B????

Answers

Answer:

A/C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sum of the angles in a triangle equals 180°, and angle C is 90°.

That means angles A and B add up to 90°, that is, they are complementary angles. Therefore the cosine of B equals the sine of A.

We saw on the last page that sin A was the opposite side over the hypotenuse, that is, a/c. Hence, cos B equals a/c.

Six kids and two adults are going to the circus. Kid's tickets are on sale for only half the price of adult tickets. The total cost is $48. How much is one kids ticket? -how much is one adult ticket

Answers

Answer:

One kids ticket is $4.80 and one adult ticket is $9.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a system of equations where k is the cost of a kids ticket and a is the cost of an adult ticket:

6k + 2a = 48

k = 1/2a

Solve by substitution by substituting the second equation into the first one:

6k + 2a = 48

6(1/2a) + 2a = 48

Simplify and solve for a:

3a + 2a = 48

5a = 48

a = 9.6

Find the cost of a kids ticket by dividing this by 2, since they are on sale for half the price of adult tickets.

9.6/2

= 4.8

One kids ticket is $4.80 and one adult ticket is $9.60

Simplify (2 − + 1) + 5 and find its value for a = -2.

Answers

Answer:

Part A

a·(a² - a + 1) + 5·a = a³ - a² + 6·a

Part B

The value of a·(a² - a + 1) + 5·a, for a = -2 is -24

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given function is a·(a² - a + 1) + 5·a

The function is simplified by expanding the product of sums into sums of products, as follows;

a·(a² - a + 1) + 5·a = a × a² - a × a + a × 1 + 5·a = a³ - a² + a + 5·a = a³ - a² + 6·a

The function, a·(a² - a + 1) + 5·a, in simplified format is therefore;

a·(a² - a + 1) + 5·a = a³ - a² + 6·a

Part B

When a = -2, we get;

(a³ - a² + 6·a)[tex]_{a = 2}[/tex] = (-2)³ - (-2)² + 6·(-2) = -8 - 4 - 12 = -24

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-6,5) and (3,−5). Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle y-5=-\frac{10}{9}(x+6)[/tex]

Or:

[tex]\displaystyle y+5=-\frac{10}{9}(x-3)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write the equation of a line that passes through the points (-6, 5) and (3, -5) in point-slope form.

Point-slope form is given by:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Thus, first, we need to find the slope. We can use the slope formula:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{(-5)-(5)}{(3)-(-6)}=\frac{-10}{9}=-\frac{10}{9}[/tex]

Next, we can use either of the two given points. I'll use (-6, 5). So, let (-6, 5) be (x₁, y₁). Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle y-(5)=-\frac{10}{9}(x-(-6))[/tex]

Or, fully simplified:

[tex]\displaystyle y-5=\frac{-10}{9}(x+6)[/tex]

Using the other point, we will acquire:

[tex]\displaystyle y-(-5)=-\frac{10}{9}(x-(3))[/tex]

Or, simplified:

[tex]\displaystyle y+5=-\frac{10}{9}(x-3)[/tex]
