What is the measure of the base of the rectangle if the area of the triangle is 32 ft2 ?A) 8 ftB) 16 ft C) 32 ftD) 64 ft
Answer:
B) 16 ft
Explanation:
The area of a triangle is equal to
[tex]Area\text{ =}\frac{Base\times Height}{2}[/tex]We know that the area is 32 ft² and the height is 4 ft, so replacing these values, we get
[tex]32=\frac{\text{Base}\times4}{2}[/tex]Now, we can solve for the base. So multiply both sides by 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} 32\times2=\frac{\text{Base }\times4}{2}\times2 \\ 64=\text{Base }\times4 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then divide both sides by 4
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{64}{4}=\frac{Base\times4}{4} \\ 16=\text{Base} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the measure of the base is 16 ft

B. They have the same x–intercept but different end behaviours as x approaches ∞What is the end behaviour of a graph?The end behaviour of a function is the description of how the function behaves towards the boundaries of the x–axis.
The given points on the exponential function, f, are;
(-0.25, 10), (0, 6), (5, -2) and also the x–intercept (1, 0)
The points on the function g, obtained from the table of the values for g(x), expressed as ordered pairs are;
(-1, 15), (0, 3), (1, 0), (2, -34), (3, -16)
The coordinates of the x–intercept is given by the point where the y–value is zero.
The x–intercept for the exponential function, f, is therefore (1, 0)
Similarly, the x–intercept for the function, g, is (1, 0)
Therefore, both functions have the same x–intercept
However, the end behaviour of the function, f, as the x approaches infinity is that f(x) approaches negative infinity, while the end behaviour of the function, g, as the the value of x approaches infinity is g(x) is increasing towards positive infinity.

Given:
[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+600t+225[/tex]To find the time interval when the height is about more than 4000 feet:
Let us substitute,
[tex]\begin{gathered} h(t)\ge4000 \\ -16t^2+600t+225\ge4000 \\ -16t^2+600t+225-4000\ge0 \\ -16t^2+600t-3775\ge0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Using the quadratic formula,
Here, a= -16, b=600, and c= -3775
[tex]\begin{gathered} t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \\ =\frac{-600\pm\sqrt[]{600^2-4(-16)(-3775)}}{2(-16)} \\ =\frac{-600\pm\sqrt[]{360000^{}-241600}}{-32} \\ =\frac{-600\pm\sqrt[]{118400}}{-32} \\ =\frac{-600\pm40\sqrt[]{74}}{-32} \\ =\frac{-75\pm5\sqrt[]{74}}{-4} \\ t=\frac{-75+5\sqrt[]{74}}{-4},x=\frac{-75-5\sqrt[]{74}}{-4} \\ t=7.99709,t=29.5029 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the interval is,
[tex]8.00\le\: t\le\: 29.50[/tex]rounded 425.652 to the hundredths place
Since the given number is 425.652
The hundredth digit is the 2nd number right at the decimal point
It is 5
To round to the nearest hundredth, we will look at the digit right to it
1. If it is 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 we will ignore it and write the number without change except by canceling that digit
2. If it is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 we will cancel it and add the digit left to it 1
Since the right digit to the digit 5 is 2, then we will remove it and do not change the digit 5 (case 1), then
The number after rounding should be 425.65
The answer is 425.65
Find an equation of the line. Write the equation using function notation.
Through (4, -1); perpendicular to 4y=x-8
The equation of the line is f(x) =
The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (4,-1) is:
[tex]y = -4x+15[/tex].
What is a equation of line?These lines are written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We know from the question that our slope is 3 and our y-intercept is –5, so plugging these values in we get the equation of our line to be y = 3x – 5.
Given equation of line is:
4y=x-8
We have to convert the given line in slope-intercept form to find the slope of the line
Dividing both sides by 4.
[tex]y = \frac{1}{4}x-2[/tex]
Let [tex]m_{1}[/tex] be the slope of given line
Then,
[tex]m_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Let [tex]m_{2}[/tex] be the slope of line perpendicular to given line
As we know that product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.
[tex]m_{1}*m_{2} = -1\\\frac{1}{4}*m_{2}=-1\\ m_{2} = -4[/tex]
The slope intercept form of line is given by
[tex]y = m_{2}x+c[/tex]
[tex]y = -4x+c[/tex]
to find the value of c, putting (4,-1) in equation
[tex]-1 = -4*4+c\\-1+16 = c\\c = 15[/tex]
Putting the value of c in the equation
[tex]y=-4x+15[/tex]
Hence, The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (4,-1) is [tex]y = -4x+15[/tex].

Find the area and the perimeter of the following rhombus. round to the nearest whole number if needed.
ANSWER
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=572 \\ P=96 \end{gathered}[/tex]EXPLANATION
To find the area of the rhombus, we have to first find the length of the other diagonal.
We are given half one diagonal and the side length.
They form a right angle triangle with half the other diagonal. That is:
We can find x using Pythagoras theorem:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 24^2=x^2+16^2 \\ x^2=24^2-16^2=576-256 \\ x^2=320 \\ x=\sqrt[]{320} \\ x=17.89 \end{gathered}[/tex]This means that the length of the two diagonals is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow2\cdot16=32 \\ \Rightarrow2\cdot17.89=35.78 \end{gathered}[/tex]The area of a rhombus is given as:
[tex]A=\frac{p\cdot q}{2}[/tex]where p and q are the lengths of the diagonal.
Therefore, the area of the rhombus is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\frac{32\cdot35.78}{2} \\ A=572.48\approx572 \end{gathered}[/tex]The perimeter of a rhombus is given as:
[tex]P=4L[/tex]where L = length of side of the rhombus
Therefore, the perimeter of the rhombus is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=4\cdot24 \\ P=96 \end{gathered}[/tex]Are the graphs of the equations parallel, perpendicular, or neither?x -3y = 6 and x - 3y = 9
The equation of a line in Slope-Intercept form, is:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.
By definition:
- The slopes of parallel lines are equal and the y-intercepts are different.
- The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals.
For this case you need to rewrite the equations given in the exercise in Slope-Intercept form by solving for "y".
- Line #1:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x-3y=6 \\ -3y=-x+6 \\ y=\frac{-x}{-3}+(\frac{6}{-3}) \\ \\ y=\frac{x}{3}-2 \end{gathered}[/tex]You can identify that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m_1=\frac{1}{3} \\ \\ b_1=-2 \end{gathered}[/tex]- Line #2:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x-3y=9 \\ -3y=-x+9 \\ y=\frac{-x}{-3}+(\frac{9}{-3}) \\ \\ y=\frac{x}{3}-3 \end{gathered}[/tex]You can identify that:
[tex]\begin{gathered} m_2=\frac{1}{3} \\ \\ b_2=-3_{}_{} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, since:

Dave has a piggy bank which consists of dimes, nickels, and pennies. Dave has seven
more dimes than nickels and ten more pennies than nickels. If Dave has $3.52 in his piggy bank, how many of each coin does he have?
Dave has 17 nickels, 24 dimes and 27 pennies in his piggy bank.
According to the question,
We have the following information:
Dave has 7 more dimes than nickels and 10 more pennies than nickels.
Now, let's take the number of nickels to be x.
So,
Dimes = (x+7)
Pennies = (x+10)
Now, Dave has $3.52 in his piggy bank.
We will convert nickels, dimes and pennies into dollars.
We know that 1 nickel = 0.05 dollars, 1 dime = 0.1 dollars and 1 pennies = 0.01 dollars.
Now, we will convert the given numbers of nickel, dime and pennies into dollars.
x Nickels in dollars = $0.05x
(x+7) dimes in dollars = $0.1(x+7)
(x+10) pennies in dollars = $0.01(x+10)
Now, we will them.
0.05x + 0.1(x+7) + 0.01(x+10) = 3.52
0.05x + 0.1x + 0.7 + 0.01x + 0.1 = 3.52
0.16x + 0.8 = 3.52
0.16x = 3.52-0.8
0.16x = 2.72
x = 2.72/0.16
x = 17
Now, we have:
Number of nickels = 17
Number of dimes = (17+7)
Number of dimes = 24
Number of pennies = (17+10)
Number of pennies = 27
Hence, the number of nickels, dimes and pennies are 17, 24 and 27 respectively.

replace the values of the previous parameters in the formula for m:
[tex]m\text{ = }\frac{3-1}{3-(-1)}=\frac{2}{3+1}=\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]Hence, the slope is 1/2
A rocket is shot off from a launcher. The accompanying table represents the height of the rocket at given times, where x is time, in seconds, and y is height, in feet. Write a quadratic regression equation for this set of data, rounding all coefficients to the nearest tenth. Using this equation, find the height, to the nearest foot, at a time of 3.8 seconds.
Given
The data can be modeled using a quadratic regression equation.
Using the general form of a quadratic equation:
[tex]y=ax^2\text{ + bx + c}[/tex]We should use a regression calculator to obtain the required coefficients. The graph of the equation is shown below:
The coefficients of the equation is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a\text{ = -17.5 (nearest tenth)} \\ b\text{ = }249.0\text{ (nearest tenth)} \\ c\text{ = }-0.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the regression equation is:
[tex]y=-17.5x^2\text{ + 249.0x -0.5}[/tex]We can find the height (y) at a time of 3.8 seconds by substitution:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y=-17.5(3.8)^2\text{ + 249}(3.8)\text{ - 0.5} \\ =\text{ }693 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the height at time 3.8 seconds is 693 ft
