A stopwatch is used to time the rate of a chemical reaction.

Segment AB was added to segment BC to get segment AC

representing it as an equation,

AC = AB + BC.

Substitute the values in the equation which means you are going to find the value of x.

77 = x + 16 + 4x +11

77 = 5x + 27

(group like terms)

77 - 27 = 5x

50 = 5x

( divide both sides by 5 to make x stand alone)

50/5=5x/5

10 = x

therefore ,x = 10.

To prove that segment AB =26, place x in the statement

AB = x+16

AB=10+16

AB=26/

Answer:

  the sides are different lengths as shown in the diagram

Step-by-step explanation:

Plotting the three points, you can see by "inspection" that the middle length side (PQ) is longer than the shortest side (QR) and shorter than the longest side (PR). You could use the distance formula to show this, or you can use a scale to measure the drawing.

A triangle with three unequal sides is a scalene triangle. ∆PQR is scalene.

Answer:

0.02275

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the z score formula to solve for this

z-score is given as: z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

In the above question:

mean of μ=500

a standard deviation of SD=100

raw score x = 700

Hence, z score = (700 - 500)/ 100

= 200/100

= 2

z score = 2

Using the z score table of normal distribution to find the Probability of z = 2

P( x = z)

= P(x = 700)

= P( z = 2)

= 0.97725

P(x>700) = 1 - P(x = 700)

= 1 - 0.97725

= 0.02275

Therefore, the probability of randomly selecting an individual from this population who has an SAT score greater than 700 is 0.02275

Answer:

182.5 miles in the rate of 50 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 gallon = 14.6 miles in the rate of 50 mph

12.5 gallons = ?

12.5 × 14.6 = 182.5 miles in the rate of 50 mph.

The number of miles covered during the trip was 182.5 miles.

Given that, at the rate of 50 mph, a car can travel 14.6 miles for each gallon of gas used. On a trip, Mr Hanson used 12.5 gallons of gas travelling at a speed of 50 mph.

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Now, 1 gallon = 14.6 miles at the rate of 50 mph

12.5 × 14.6 = 182.5 miles in the rate of 50 mph.

Therefore, the number of miles covered during the trip was 182.5 miles.

Answer:

-14

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe first that $x=0$ is not a solution to the equation since it makes the denominator of $\frac{1}{2x}$ equal to 0. For $x\neq 0$, we may multiply both sides by both denominators and move all the resulting terms to the left-hand side to get $2x^2-2rx+7=0$. Observe that there are two ways the original equation could have exactly one solution. Either $2x^2-2rx+7=0$ has two solutions and one of them is 0, or else $2x^2-2rx+7=0$ has exactly one nonzero solution. By trying $x=0$, we rule out the first possibility.

Considering the expression $\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$ for the solutions of $ax^2+bx+c=0$, we find that there is exactly one solution if and only if the discriminant $b^2-4ac$ is zero. Setting $(-2r)^2-4(2)(7)$ equal to 0 gives $4r^2-4(14) = 0$. Add 4(14) and divide by 4 to find $r^2=14$. The two solutions of this equation are $\sqrt{14}$ and $-\sqrt{14}$, and their product is $\boxed{-14}$.

The value of r from the given equation is r=(2x²+7)/2x.

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

The given equation is [tex]\frac{1}{2x}=\frac{r-x}{7}[/tex].

The solution of an equation is the set of all values that, when substituted for unknowns, make an equation true.

By cross multiplication, we get

7=2x(r-x)

7=2rx-2x²

2rx=7+2x²

r=(2x²+7)/2x

Therefore, the value of r from the given equation is r=(2x²+7)/2x.

Answer:

126

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the missing length

The triangles are similar:

● UE/140 = 45/x

From the graph we deduce that:

● UE = 140 - 90 = 50

Replace UE by its value

● 50/ 140 = 45/x

Switch x and 50

● x / 140 = 45/50

45/50 is 9/10 wich is 0.9

● x/140 = 0.9

Multiply 0.9 by 140

● x = 140 × 0.9

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the number be n = 6 3/4

Now , for the number to be divided into three parts where each number is 1/4 shorter than the one before it ,

Let the first divided number be = x

So , the second number will be 1/4 more than the first number

Second number = x + 1/4

And , the third number will be 1/4 more than the second number

Third number = x + 1/4 + 1/4

                       = x + 2/4

                       = x + 1/2

Now, the equation will be

The sum of all three numbers = 6 3/4

So ,

x + ( x + 1/4 ) + ( x + 1/2 ) = 6 3/4

3x + 3/4 = 6 3/4

Subtracting 3/4 on both sides , we get

3x = 6

x = 2

Substituting the values of x in the equation , we get

First number = 2

Second number = 2 1/4

Third number = 2 1/2

Hence , the three numbers or parts are 2 , 2 1/4 and 2 1/2

You can eliminate answer choices A and C because their leading coefficient is negative. In standard form, the leading coefficient is positive.

For the remaining two equations, you can check to see if the given points are on the line

B: for point (-6, 6), we want 8(-6) +9(6) = 6 . . . true

  for point (3, -2), we want 8(3) +9(-2) = 6 . . . . true

The appropriate equation is 8x +9y = 6.

D: (we don't need to check to know it won't work after the above)

__

The equation in standard form, can be written from ...

  (Δy)(x -a) = (Δx)(y -b) . . . . . for some point (a, b)

The values of Δx and Δy are the differences between corresponding coordinates.

  Δy = 6 -(-2) = 8

  Δx = -6 -3 = -9

For point (-6, 6), the above equation becomes ...

  8(x +6) = -9(y -6)

  8x +48 = -9y +54 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  8x +9y = 6 . . . . . . . . . . add 9y-48

Answer:

At   90% confidence interval, the estimate of the mean breaking weight is (770.45, 778.15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

sample size n =43

sample mean x = 774.3

standard deviation = 15.4

confidence interval = 90%

At C.I of  90% , the level of significance ∝ = 1 - C.I

the level of significance ∝ = 1 - 0.90

the level of significance ∝ = 0.10

The critical  value for z at this level of significance is [tex]z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.10/2}[/tex]

[tex]z_{0.05}[/tex] = 1.64

The margin of error can be computed as follows:

Margin of error = [tex]\mathtt{z_{\alpha/2} \times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

Margin of error =  [tex]\mathtt{1.64 \times \dfrac{15.4}{\sqrt{43}}}[/tex]

Margin of error = [tex]\mathtt{1.64 \times \dfrac{15.4}{6.5574}}[/tex]

Margin of error  = [tex]\mathtt{1.64 \times2.3485}[/tex]

Margin of error = 3.8515

The mean breaking weight  for the 90% confidence interval is = [tex]\mathtt{\overline x \pm E < \mu }[/tex]

=  [tex]\mathtt{\overline x - E < \mu < \overline x + E}[/tex]

= ( 774.3 - 3.8515  < μ < 774.3 + 3.8515 )

= (770.4485, 778.1515)

[tex]\simeq[/tex] (770.45, 778.15)
