Draw A Figure To Use For Numbers 13 - 15. Points A. B. And C Are Collinear And Bis The Midpoint Of AC.

Answers

Answer 1

13.

Given:

AB = 3x - 8, BC = x + 4

A, B and C are collinear

B is a midpoint of AC

Since B is the midpoint, we can write:

[tex]\text{length of AB = Length of BC}[/tex]

Hence, we have:

[tex]3x\text{ - 8 = x + 4}[/tex]

Solving for x:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Collect like terms} \\ 3x\text{ -x = 4 + 8} \\ 2x\text{ = 12} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 2} \\ x\text{ = 6} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the length of AB is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} =\text{ 3x - 8} \\ =\text{ 3}\times\text{ 6 -8} \\ =\text{ 18 -8} \\ =\text{ 10} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer:

The length of AB is 10 unit

As people are living longer and the world's population is increasing, there are more and more people ages 65 or older. In 2000, approximately 419 million people were 65 or older. By 2017, that number increased to 656 million. On the two questions below, round to the nearest tenth when relevant a. What was the absolute change in the number of people 65 or older from 2000 to 2017? b. What was the relative change in the number of people 65 or older from 2000 to 2017?

Answers

In 2000 there were 419 million people 65 or older

In 2017 there were 656 million people 65 or older

a)

To calculate the absolute change in the number of people 65 and older you have to subtract the initial number (on year 2000) from the final number (in year 2017)

[tex]656000000-419000000=240000000[/tex]

The absolute change is 240millions

b)

The relative change is the percentage of change. To calculate it you have to calculate the difference between the final number and the initial number, divide the result by the initial number and multiply it by 100

[tex]\frac{240000000}{419000000}\cdot100=57.279\cong57.30[/tex]

The relative change is 57.30%

What is the distance between A(5,-2) and B(-2,4)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the distance formula to solve for the distance between the two given points!

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^2 + (y_{2} - y_{1})^2 }[/tex]

Now, we input the points:

(5-(-2) + (-2-4)

(which will equal...)

(7) + (-6)

Now we input the solutions we got here to the distance formula:

[tex]d =\sqrt{(7)^2 + (-6)^2[/tex]

(we simplify....)

[tex]7^2 = 49\\(-6)^2 = 36[/tex]

input these solutions into the distance formula again...

[tex]\sqrt{49 + 36} = \sqrt{85}[/tex]

85 is not a number that can be square rooted properly, nor does it have any perfect squares available to divide equally.

Therefore, we conclude that the distance between A(5, -2) and B(-2,4) is [tex]\sqrt{85}[/tex].

Given m//n find the value of x and y (5x+1)° (6x-10)° (y°)

Answers

To find the value of x, use the vertical angle theorem.

Vertical angles are congruent.

Thus we have:

6x - 10 = 5x + 1

Solve for x.

6x - 10 = 5x + 1

Add 10 to both sides:

6x - 10 + 10 = 5x + 1 + 10

6x = 5x + 11

Subtract 5x from both sides:

6x - 5x = 5x - 5x + 11

x = 11

To find the value of y, use corresponding angles thoerem.

When two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal, the angles in matching corners are correponding angles.

Corresponding angles are congruent.

Thus, we have:

y = 6x - 10

Substitiute x for 11:

y = 6(11) - 10

y = 66 - 10

y = 56°

To be able to determine which among the choices is a proportion, you check if each side has the same common ratio.

A. 8/10 = 6/8

Ratio: 0.80 = 0.75 (Not Proportional)

B. 3/4 = 12/15

Ratio: 0.75 = 0.80 (Not Proportional)

C. 4/6 = 9/12

Ratio: 0.67 = 0.75 (Not Proportional)

D. 6/9 = 8/12

Ratio: 0.67 = 0.67 (Proportional)

estimate the product by rounding to the nearest ten: 28×51×76

Answers

[tex]28\times51\times76[/tex]

To estimate each number by rounding it to the nearest ten, we will look at the unit digit,

If it is less than 5, then we replace it by 0 and keep the ten-digit as it

If it is 5 or more, then we will replace it by 0 and add the ten-digit by 1

Let us do that with every number

28, the unit digit is 8 which is greater than 5, then replace it by 0 and add 2 by 1

28 rounded to 30

51, the unit digit is 1 which is less than 5, then replace it by 0

51 rounded to 50

76, the unit digit is 6 which is greater than 5, then replace it by 0 and add 7 by 1

76 rounded to 80

A movie aspect ratio of 2.15:1 is shown as a letterboxed image on a TV with a width of 62.72in and a height of 35.28in what is the % of image shown on the TV

Answers

You have that the movie aspect ratio is 2.15 : 1, that is, you have following relation between width and height:

2.15/1 = 2.15 = 215%

that is, the widht is 2.15 times the height, or the width is 215% longer than height.

In order to determine what is the percentage of the image shown, you calculate the percentage that widht is more longer than height. You have a TV of 62.72 width and 35.28 in height:

62.72/35.28 = 1.77 = 177%

that is, width of TV is 1.77 times longer than height, or width is 177% longer.

Hence, on TV will be not possible to watch the complete image. And the percentage shown is of 177%.

what is the minimum surface area that such a box can have

Answers

Given a rectangular box with an open top and square base, the dimensions of the box are:

[tex]a\times a\times b[/tex]

The volume can be calculated as:

[tex]V=a\cdot a\cdot b=a^2\cdot b[/tex]

The area of the sides is:

[tex]A_L=a\cdot b[/tex]

The area of the base:

[tex]A_B=a^2[/tex]

There are 4 lateral sides and 1 base (the top is open), so the total surface area is:

[tex]A_{\text{total}}=4\cdot A_L+A_B=4\cdot a\cdot b+a^2[/tex]

We have a fixed volume of 2048 in³, then:

Using this result on A_total:

Write the equation for a parabola with a focus at (1,-4) and a directrix at x= 2.x=?

Answers

The basic form of the equation is;

4p (x- h)= (y - k)²

where (h, k) is the vertex and p is the distance from the vertex to either of its directrix or the focus

But, focus is = (1, -4) adn directrix = 2

So, the perpendicular point is :

(1.5 , -4)

p = -0.5

Putting all the values into the formula

4p (x- h)= (y - k)²

4(-0.5)(x - 1.5) = (y - (-4)²

simplify

-2(x - 1.5) = (y + 4)²

-2(x - 1.5) = y² + 8y + 16

Divide through the equation by -2

x - 1.5 = (-1/2) y² - 4y - 8

Add 1.5 to both-side of the equation
