Answer: 35
Step-by-step explanation:
The average can be found by adding their ages together and dividing by the number of ages.
Given:
[tex]\frac{19+20+20+21+x}{5}[/tex] = 23
Multiply both sides of the equation by 5:
19 + 20 + 20 + 21 + x = 115
Combine like terms:
80 + x = 115
Subtract 80 from both sides of the equation:
x = 35
Erica is 35.

What is x in "5x + (x+12)+(2x+4)"
Answer:
[tex]\rightarrow \boxed{\sf{8x+16}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to isolate the term of x from one side of the equation.
Distributive property:
A(B+C)=AB+AC
5x+(x+12)+(2x+4)
5x+(x+12)+(2x+4)=5x+x+12+2x+4
5x+x+12+2x+4
Group and combined like terms.
5x+x+2x+12+4
Add the numbers from left to right.
12+4=16
Rewrite the problem down.
5x+x+2x+16
Then, you solve.
5x+x=6x
6x+2x=8x
8x+16
As a result, the final answer is 8x+16.

Ryan's annual salary is $54,000. A total of $15,340.80 will be deducted for taxes and health insurance. He will receive his paycheck monthly in 12 equal
installments. How much will he get paid with each paycheck?
Answer:3,221.6
Step-by-step explanation: if you divide 54,000 by 12, you get 4,500 which is the untaxted payment per month, then you must divide 15,340.80 by 12, which is 1,278.4, then you subtract that from 4,500 which ends up being 3,221.6
Find the coordinates that partitions (-8,-2) and (6, 19) with the ration 5:2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the section formula , if a point ( x , y ) divides the line joining the points ( x1 , y1 ) and ( x2 , y2 ) into the ratio m : n , then
( x , y ) = ( mx2 + nx1 / m + n , my2 + ny1 / m + n)
Let the points be A(-8,−2) and B(6,19). Let a point P(x,y) divides AB in the ratio 5:2
Therefore, we have
[tex]P(x,y) =( \frac{5 \times 6 + 2 \times - 8}{5 + 2} , \: \frac{5 \times 19 + 2 \times - 2}{5 + 2}) [/tex]

[tex] P(x,y) = (2, 13)[/tex]
Answer:
(2, 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P be the point that partitions the segment.
Let M = (-8, -2)
Let N = (6, 19)
If point P partitions the segment MN in a 5 : 2 ratio, then to calculate the x and y values of point P:
divide the difference of the x (or y) values of the two endpoints by the sum of the ratiosmultiply this by 5, since P partitions the segment at 5 : 2add this to the x (or y) value of point Mx-value of P:
[tex]\sf \implies \left(\dfrac{x_N-x_M}{5+2}\right)\cdot5+x_N[/tex]
[tex]\sf \implies \left(\dfrac{6-(-8)}{5+2}\right)\cdot5+(-8)=2[/tex]
y-value of P:
[tex]\sf \implies \left(\dfrac{y_N-y_M}{5+2}\right)\cdot5+y_N[/tex]

The circumference of the inner circle is 22 ft. The distance between the inner circle and the outer circle is 2 ft. By how many feet is the circumference of outer circle greater than the circumference of the inner circle? Use 22/7 for pi .
Answer: 25.1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the radius of the inner circle
(the formula for the circumference of a circle is ) C =2pi r
To find the radius of the inner circle, you would plug in the given information so that your equation looks like this:
22 = 2(22/7)r
then solve for r
r = 3.5
2. add 4 to the radius of the inner circle
3.5 + 4 = 7.5
3. find the circumference of the outer circle using 7.5 as the radius
22 = 2 (22/7) 7.5
C = 47.1
4. Subtract the circumference of the inner circle from the circumference of the outer circle
47.1 - 22 = 25.1
the figure represent 7/9 0f a full circle Find the measure of the marked central angle
Step-by-step explanation:
tbh I don't know I need help with that too please like this comment
The measure of the marked central angle of the sector will be 280°.
What is the arc length of the sector?Let r is the radius of the sector and θ be the angle subtended by the sector at the center. Then the arc length of the sector of the circle will be
Arc = (θ/2π) 2πr
The figure addresses 7/9 of a complete circle. Then the arc length of the circle will be given as,
Arc / P = 7/9
Simplify the equation, then we have
(θ/2π) 2πr / 2πr = 7/9
θ/2π = 7/9
θ = 14π / 9
θ = 280°
The central angle of the sector will be 280°.

The function h(x) is a transformation of the square root parent function,
f(x) = V. What function is h(x)?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:A. h(x) = √(x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To translate a function right by p units and up by q units, the function becomes ...
g(x) = f(x -p) +q
Here, there is no translation upward, but there is a translation of 2 units to the right. The transformed function's name is given as h (not g), so you have ...
(p, q) = (2, 0)
h(x) = f(x -2) +0
h(x) = √(x -2)
The function h(x) , a transformation of the parent function f(x) = √x is √(x+1). Option A is correct option.
What is transformation of a function?The transformation of the function is a function that curves a graph formed by the moving the original graph to left / right / up / down or by expansion or compression.
The transformation is of type horizontal shift when the curve moves to left or right. For y = f(x) , when this curve moves left or right the transformation is given by y = f(x +c), c > 0 moves y=f(x) to the left by c units
and if c < 0 , moves y =f(x) to the right by c units
Given that the graph of the f(x) = √x by dotted line and the graph of its transformation h(x) given by solid line.
h(x) is clearly formed by moving f(x) one units to the left as it is moved to left by 1 on origin
Then transformation of y =f(x) moving one unit to left will be given by
y = f(x+1) =√(x+1)
Therefore , transformation h(x) of f(x) is h(x) =√(x+1) and option A is correct option.

Find the roots of p(x)=x^3-10x^2+25
Answer:
{−1.47596288535, 1.73968983949, 9.73627304586}
Step-by-step explanation:
The roots of this cubic are real and irrational, as indicated by a graph of it. (Rational roots would be divisors of 25.) The same graphing calculator can provide an iterative solution to 12 significant figures. Here, we have used Newton's method iteration. The iteration function is ...
g(x) = x -p(x)/p'(x) . . . where p'(x) is the derivative: 3x^2-20x
We started each iteration using the value shown on the graph.
x ∈ {−1.47596288535, 1.73968983949, 9.73627304586}

The second attachment shows another calculator's solution. The values of x that are roots are the opposite of the constant in each binomial factor. You will notice this solution has a couple more significant figures than the one shown above.

Additional comment
There are several formulas for finding the "exact" roots of the cubic. Here's a trig approach that works reasonably well for cubics with 2 or 3 real roots.
We can define, for p(x) = x³ +ax² +bx +c, ...
s = -a/3 = 10/3
t = b -a²/3 = -100/3
r = a(2a² -9b)/27 +c = -10(200)/27 +25 = -1325/27
d = √(-4t/3) = √(400/9) = 20/3
h = 4r/d³ = -53/80
Now, the roots are ...
x = s +d·sin(arcsin(h)/3 +2nπ/3) . . . . for n=-1, 0, 1
= 10/3 +20/3·sin(arcsin(-53/80)/3 + n(2π/3)) . . . . . "exact solution"
= (10/3)(1 +2·sin(-13.8303° +n(120°))
= -1.47596..., or 1.73969..., or 9.73627...

If the given exponent is a⁻ᵇ, then the result will be 1/aᵇ.
This exponent includes a negative sign. To make the exponent positive, take the exponent's reciprocal and change the negative sign to a positive sign. The same will be done to the given expression.

7 – (5t - 13) = -25
i need help with this question
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Solve -
Distribute :7-(5t - 13) = - 25
7 - 5t + 13 = - 25
Add the numbers :7 – 57 + 13 = -25
20-51 = -25
Rearrange terms :20-51 = -25
-51+ 20 = -25
Subtract 20 from both sides :-51 + 20 = -25
-51+20-20-25-20
Simplify :Subtract the numbers
-51+ 20-20-25-20
-5:=-25-20
Subtract the numbers
-51 = -25-20
-51 = -45
-51 = -45
Divide both sides by the same factor : -51 = -45 -5t -5 -45- -5 =
Simplify : Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator :: -5t - = -45 - -5
t = - 45 - -5
Divide the numbers :
t = - 45 - -5 ” t=9 ” here’s the answer

Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle [0, 2][/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the rate of change [slopes]:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m \\ \\ \frac{-6 + 3}{8 - 2} = m; \frac{-3}{6} \\ \\ -\frac{1}{2} = m[/tex]
We now plug the above information into the Slope-Intercept Formula. It does not matter which ordered pair is selected:
[tex]\displaystyle y = mx + b \\ \\ 3 = -\frac{1}{2}[-2] + b \hookrightarrow 3 = 1 + b; \boxed{2 = b} \\ \\ y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 2[/tex]
OR
[tex]\displaystyle y = mx + b \\ \\ 6 = -\frac{1}{2}[-8] + b \hookrightarrow 6 = 4 + b; \boxed{2 = b} \\ \\ y = -\frac{1}{2}x + 2[/tex]
Therefore, the line passes through the y-intercept of [tex]\displaystyle [0, 2].[/tex]
