What is the length of MP?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]MP = 12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]LM = (3x + 1), MN = (4x -3), NP = (6x - 5)[/tex]

[tex]LM = NP[/tex]

Required

Find MP

We have:

[tex]LM = NP[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]3x + 1 = 6x - 5[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]3x - 6x = -1-5[/tex]

[tex]-3x = -6[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

MP is calculated as:

[tex]MP = MN + NP[/tex]

[tex]MP = 4x - 3 + 6x - 5[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]MP = 4x + 6x - 3 - 5[/tex]

[tex]MP = 10x - 8[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x=2[/tex]

[tex]MP = 10*2 - 8[/tex]

[tex]MP = 20 - 8[/tex]

[tex]MP = 12[/tex]

Is the point (3, -2) a solution to the following system of equations? How do you know?
y=−3x+7
y=2x−8

Answers

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

Any straight line can be represented by an equation of the form

Y = mX + b

where m is the slope and b is the Y intercept, so these two equations are lines. The only solution is where the two lines cross, so must satisfy both equations. Plugging in 3 for X and -2 for Y we get

Y = -3X + 7

-2 = -3(3) + 7

-2 = -9 + 7

-2 = -2 True

AND,

Y = 2X - 8

-2 = 2(3) - 8

-2 = 6 - 8

-2 = -2 True

So since both are true, yes (3, -2)  is the solution.

Steven and his family ordered a meal the cost 136.50. Steven paid 14% sales tax and left a 20% tip on 136.50. What was the total cost

Answers

Answer:

The total cost was $182.91.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax formula:

tax=tax percentage×amount

Tip formula:

tip=tip percentage×amount

solve

First find the tax. Write 14% as the decimal 0.14 before using it in the equation.

tax

= tax percentage×amount

= 0.14×136.50

= 19.11

The tax was $19.11.

Now find the tip. Write 20% as the decimal 0.20 before using it in the equation.

tip

= tip percentage×amount

= 0.20×136.50

= 27.3

The tip was $27.30.

Finally, find the total cost.

total cost

= cost + tax+tip

= 136.50+19.11+27.30

= 182.91

182.91

The City of Irvine upgraded a bicycle lane in a section of road to have a physical barrier between the cyclists as opposed to just a painted white line on the road. They now want to do a study to see if the bicycle lane upgrades have encouraged more people to utilize the bike lane. Before the upgrade, on any given day, it was known that the section of road saw an average of 350 unique cyclists. After the upgrade, they took a random sample of 35 days in the year and counted the number of unique cyclists each day. The average was 405 cyclists with a standard deviation of 25. Test the hypothesis at the 0.05 significance level.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0 < 0.05, which means that there is significant evidence to conclude that more people utilize the bike lane after the change.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the upgrade, on any given day, it was known that the section of road saw an average of 350 unique cyclists. Test if more people are using now.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the same number of people is still using, that is, the mean is 350. So

[tex]H_0: \mu = 350[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if this mean increased, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 350[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

350 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 350[/tex]

After the upgrade, they took a random sample of 35 days in the year and counted the number of unique cyclists each day. The average was 405 cyclists with a standard deviation of 25.

This means that [tex]n = 35, X = 405, s = 25[/tex].

Test statistic:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{405 - 350}{\frac{25}{\sqrt{35}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 13.02[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean above 405, which is a right-tailed test with t = 13.02 and 35 - 1 = 34 degrees of freedom.

Using a t-distribution calculator, this probability is of 0.

The p-value of the test is 0 < 0.05, which means that there is significant evidence to conclude that more people utilize the bike lane after the change.

Rewrite the quadratic function below in Standard Form.

From the given expression, x = 0

Substitute the value of x into the given equation  and solve for n;

n(n - 0) = 25

this equation reduces to;

n(n) = 25

simplifying further to obtain the value of n;

n² = 25

n = √25

n = 5

Unit 1: Geometry Basics Homework 3: Angle Relationships

Answers

Answer:

juicy no no square

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x = z = 73 degrees and y = 107degrees

3) Geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the measurement of lines and angles.

From the diagram shown, we can see that the two lines intersect at a point. The following is therefore true:

y = 107° (vertically opposite angle)

The sum of z and 107 is supplementary. Hence;

z + 107 = 180z = 180 - 107z = 73degrees

Also, the sum of x and y is also supplementary. This shows that:

x + y = 180x + 107 = 180x = 180 - 107x = 73dgrees

From the calculations, hence x = z = 73 degrees and y = 107degrees
