14. Construction Workers Are Laying Out The Rectangular Foundation For A New Building.They Want To Check

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation: We can see on the image that the two sides and the diagonal represent a triangle. We also know that this triangle to have a 90 degrees angle is will be called a right triangle. Finally, all right triangles obey the Pythagorean equation

[tex]h^2=a^2+b^2[/tex]

NOTE:

h = hypotenuse

a and b = other sides

Step 1: Once we know the length of the two sides we can use the Pythagorean equation to find the length of the hypotenuse for the triangle to be a right triangle and consequently have an angle that measures 90 degrees.

Step 2: Let's calculate as follows

[tex]\begin{gathered} h^2=a^2+b^2 \\ h=\sqrt[]{8^2+6^2} \\ h=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Step 3: We can see above, that to have an angle that measures 90 degrees (right triangle) the triangle have to have a hypotenuse = 10 which is different from 9.5.

Final answer: So the angle does not measure 90°.

What is polynomial function?

A polynomial consists of two words, poly and nominal. "Poly" means many and "nomial" means  term, and so when  combined, polynomials can be said to be "algebraic expressions with many terms." Let's go ahead and start by defining polynomial functions and their types.

The polynomial function in standard form is:

f(x) =  [tex]a_{n}x^{n} +a_{n-1} x^{n-1} +.....a_{2} x^{2} +a_{1} x+a0[/tex]

What is the solution to the equation below?A.x = -1B.x = 0C.x = -5D.x = 3

Answers

Explanation

We must solve the following equation for x:

[tex]x+3=\sqrt{3-x}[/tex]

We can square both sides of the equation so we can get rid of the radical:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (x+3)^2=(\sqrt{3-x})^2 \\ (x+3)^2=3-x \end{gathered}[/tex]

We expand the squared binomial on the left:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (x+3)^2=x^2+6x+9=3-x \\ x^2+6x+9=3-x \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then we substract (3-x) from both sides:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2+6x+9-(3-x)=x-3-(3-x) \\ x^2+6x+9+x-3=0 \\ x^2+7x+6=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then we have to find the solutions to this last equation. Remember that the solutions to an equation of the form ax²+bx+c have the form:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In our case a=1, b=7 and c=6 so we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-7\pm\sqrt{7^2-4\cdot1\cdot6}}{2\cdot1}=\frac{-7\pm\sqrt{49-24}}{2}=\frac{-7\pm\sqrt{25}}{2}=\frac{-7\pm5}{2} \\ x=\frac{-7+5}{2}=-1\text{ and }x=\frac{-7-5}{2}=-6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So we have two potential solutions x=-1 and x=-6. However we should note something important, in the original equation we have the term:

[tex]\sqrt{3-x}[/tex]

Remember that the result of the square root is always positive. Then the term in the left of the expression has to be positive or 0. Then we impose a restriction in the value of x:

[tex]x+3\ge0\rightarrow x\ge-3[/tex]

From the two possible solutions only x=-1 is greater than or equal to -3 so this is the correct one.

Answers

Answer:

C. y = 1.60 +.08x

Explanation:

The cost of the ice cream will be equal to the fixed cost of $1.60 plus the cost that depends on the number of toppings. So, if Natasha chooses x number of topping, the total cost of the toppings will be 8 cents times x or $0.08x

So, the total cost for the ice cream is represented by the equation:

y = 1.60 +.08x

Use this property to simplify, and we get

The given quadratic equation is

y = - x^2 + 25

a) The leading coeffiecient is the coefficient of the term with the highest exponent. Thus, the leading coefficient is the coefficient of x^2.

Leading coefficient = - 1

Since the leading coefficient is negative, the graph would open downwards. Thus, the correct option is

Down

b) The standard form of a quadratic equation is

y = ax^2 + bx + c

By comparing both equations,

a = - 1

b = 0

c = 25

The formula for calculating the x coordinate of the vertex of the graph is

x = - b/2a

By substituting the given values,

x = - 0/2 * - 1 = 0

We would calculate the y coordinate of the vertex by substituting x = 0 into the original equation. We have

y = - 0^2 + 25

y = 25

The coordinate of the vertex is (0, 25)

c) To find the x intercepts, we would equate the original equation to zero and solve for x. We have

- x^2 + 25 = 0

x^2 = 25

Taking the square root of both sides,

x = square root of 25

x = ± 5

Thus, the x intercepts are

(5, - 5)

d) The y intercept is the value of y when x = 0

Substituting x = 0 into the orignal equation,

y = - 0^2 + 25

y = 25

y intercept = (0, 25)

e) We would find another point on the graph. Let us substitute x = 6 into the equation. We have

y = - (6)^2 + 25 = - 36 + 25

y = - 11

We would plot (6, - 11) and (0, 25) on the graph. The graph is shown below

can you solve for x and y y=4x-11=x+13

Answers

Answer:

x = 8, y = 21

Explanations:

The given equation is:

y = 4x - 11 = x + 13

This can be splitted into two equations as:

y = 4x - 11..........(1)

y = x + 13..........(2)

Substitute equation (1) into equation (2)

4x - 11 = x + 13

4x - x = 13 + 11

3x = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8

Substitute the value of x into equation (1)

y = 4x - 11

y = 4(8) - 11

y = 32 - 11

y = 21

x = 8, y = 21

solve using system of linear equations using elimination

2x + 3y – 3z = -2
x + 3y – 2z = -4

Answers

The values of the variables are x = 2, y = -2 and z =0

How to solve the system of equations?

From the question, the system of equations is given as

x – y - 3z = 4

2x + 3y – 3z = -2

x + 3y – 2z = -4

Subtract the second equation from the third

This action will eliminate (y)

So, we have

x + 3y – 2z = -4 - (2x + 3y – 3z = -2)

Evaluate

-x + z = -2

Make x the subject

x = z + 2

Substitute x = z + 2 in x – y - 3z = 4 and x + 3y – 2z = -4

z + 2 – y - 3z = 4

z + 2 + 3y – 2z = -4

Evaluate

-2z - y = 2

-z + 3y = -6

Double -z + 3y = -6

-2z + 6y = -12

Subtract -2z + 6y = -12 from -2z - y = 2 to eliminate z

7y = -14

Divide

y = -2

Substitute y = -2 in -z + 3y = -6

-z + 3(-2) = -6

Evaluate

-z - 6 = -6

Evaluate

z = 0

Recall that x – y - 3z = 4

So, we have

x + 2 - 3(0) = 4

Evaluate

x = 2

Hence, the solution is x = 2, y = -2 and z =0

let x represents the number

hence,

four times a number =4*x=4x

the difference of four times a number and seven=4x-7

is can be written as equal or "="",so

the difference of four times a number and seven is 13​

[tex]4x-7=13[/tex]

Step 2

solve for x

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x-7=13 \\ \text{add 7 in both sides} \\ 4x-7+7=13+7 \\ 4x=20 \\ \text{divide both sides by 4} \\ \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{20}{4} \\ x=5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

so, the number is 5.

I hope this helps you

Andrea invites 12 cousins 6 aunts 4 brothers 2 sisters what fraction of her party guests are cousins?

Answers

To determine the fraction of cousins, you have to divide the number of cousins she invited by the total number of guests.

She invited 12 cousins, 6 aunts, 4 brothers, and 2 sisters, a total of 24 guests.

Then:

[tex]\frac{nº\text{cousins}}{\text{total guests}}=\frac{12}{24}[/tex]

Both, 12 and 24 are divisible by 12, to simplify the fraction, divide the numerator and denominator by 12

[tex]\frac{12\div12}{24\div12}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The fraction
