Triangle PQR is similar to triangle XYZ. The length of PQ is one-half the length of XY. THe length of RP is 2 cm. Which proportion can be used to find the length of ZX?
Answer:
[tex]ZX = 4cm[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\triangle PQR[/tex] similar to [tex]\triangle XYZ[/tex]
[tex]PQ = \frac{1}{2}XY[/tex]
[tex]RP = 2cm[/tex]
Required
Find ZX
[tex]\triangle PQR[/tex] similar to [tex]\triangle XYZ[/tex] implies that, the following sides are similar
[tex]PQ \to XY[/tex]
[tex]QR \to YZ[/tex]
[tex]RP \to ZX[/tex]
To find ZX, we make use of the following equivalent ratio
[tex]PQ : XY = RP : ZX[/tex]
Where
[tex]PQ = \frac{1}{2}XY[/tex]
[tex]RP = 2cm[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}XY : XY = 2cm : ZX[/tex]
Express as fraction
[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{2}XY }{ XY }= \frac{2cm }{ ZX}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2}= \frac{2cm }{ ZX}[/tex]
Make ZX the subject
[tex]ZX = 2 * 2cm[/tex]
[tex]ZX = 4cm[/tex]
Sunny and Rashika collect stamps. Sunny has collected 3 times as many stamps as Rashika. Together, they have 304 stamps. How many stamps does each person have? Show your work.
Answer:
Sunny = 228 stampsRashika = 76 stampsStep-by-step explanation:
Sunny has collected 3 times the stamps that Rashika has collected but in total they have both collected 304 stamps.
Assume that Rashika has x stamps. This would mean that Sunny has (3 * x) or 3x stamps.
In an equation this would be:
x + 3x = 304
4x = 304
x = 304/4
x = 76 stamps
Rashika has 76 stamps.
Sunny has 3 times that number:
= 76 * 3
= 228 stamps
Line A has a slope of 3/2 and passes through the point (3, 3). Line B has a slope of – 1/3 and passes through the point (-4, -2). At what point does line A intersect line B? Line Aintersects line B at the point ( , ).
Answer:
The lines meet at (-1, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Line A :
[tex](x_1, y_1) = (3, 3) \ ; \ slope, \ m_A = \frac{3}{2}\\\\Equation \ of \ line \ A : (y - 3) = \frac{3}{2}(x - 3)[/tex]
[tex]2(y - 3) = 3(x-3)\\2y - 6 = 3x - 9\\2y = 3x - 9 + 6\\2y = 3x -3[/tex]
Line B :
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (-4, -2) \ ; \ slope , m_B = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\Equation \ of\ line \ B: (y -(-2)) = -\frac{1}{3}(x -(-4))[/tex]
[tex]3(y + 2) = -1(x+4)\\3y + 6 = -x -4\\3y = -x - 4 - 6 \\3y = -x - 10[/tex]
Solve for x and y from the linear equation to find where line A and line B meets :
2y = 3x - 3 => 3x - 2y = 3 ------- (1)
3y = -x - 10 => -x = 3y + 10
=> x = - 3y - 10 --------(2)
Substitute (2) in (1) : => 3(- 3y - 10) - 2y = 3
-9y - 30 -2y = 3
-11y = 3 + 30
-11y = 33
y = -3
Substitute y in (2) : => x = -3 (-3) - 10 = 9 - 10 = -1
slope = 4, point (3,-2) is on the line
Answer:
y = 4x + b
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that (3, -2) is on this line. So 3 = m(-2)+b.
This leaves us with two variables the slope (m) and the y intercept (b).
But wait a minute, the slope is given to us since it says slope = 4.
Our equation is now, 3 = 4(-2)+b
3 = -8 + b
b = 11.
Our final equation is now y = 4x + b.
(y,x) is a point on this line.
Hope this helped!

Silas has 5 1/4 cups of flour. He uses 3 1/2 cups to bake bread, then he borrows another 2 cups from his neighbor. He wants to bake cookies, which take 2 3/4 cups of flour. Does he have enough? How much will he have left over, or how much more does he need?
Answer:
He has enough to bake the cookies with 1 cup of flour left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
5.25 cups to start - 3.5 for the bread = 1.75 remaining
1.75 cups + 2 cups from neighbors = 3.75 cups
3.75 - 2.75 for cookies = 1 cup left over.

Find the mean, median, and mode of the following set of data:
54, 48, 37, 55, 51, 54, 42, 52, 53
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
mode is means the data which is repeated maximum number of times.
here 54 is repeated maximum number of times so the mode of the given data is 54.
to calculate median u must arrange the data from ascending to descending order.
37 , 42 , 48 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 54 , 55 ,
median = (N + 1) /2 (N means number of data)
=9 + 1/2
=10/2
=5 th term
=52
What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-5,6) and (7,6)?
PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME WITH THESE QUESTIONS I'VE BEEN STUCK ON HERE FOR SO LONG
Answer:
# means number
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = Y-axis or output
Cost= X-axis or input
you do not need to add the brackets for the formula(BEDMAS), but it makes things clearer
For A -
the Y-intercept is where the first coordinate, or the # or the X-axis, is 0 (on the graph the y-intercept 0,4)
For B -
y = mx + b
m = slope
x = input or # on the X-axis
b = y-intercept
or
formula = (input x increase in the slope) + output for 0 or (distance x increase in cost) + output for 0
input(x axis) output(y axis)
0 5 ← output for 0
1 9
2 13
there is a +4 increase in the slope, the increase in the slope is an output #(in this case 9) - the previous output number (in this case 5)
formula = (input x increase in the slope) + output for 0 = distance
formula in use = (3 x 4) + 5 = 17
For C:
The dependent variable is the output or the cost because the input or the distance will determine the cost travelled. Eg. if I travel 9 miles it will cost $41. If the dependent variable is the cost then the independent variable is the distance
For D: (input x increase in the slope) + output for 0
(4.2 miles x $4) + 5
16.8 + 5 = $21.8; It will cost $21.8 to travel 4.2miles
For E: (distance x increase in cost) + output for 0
(? x 4) + 5 = 14
(14 - 5) = 9
9 ÷ 4 = 2.25miles; with 14 dollars I could travel 2.25 miles
(It is a bit confusing lol, but this is the way I understand it, if you can't understand it this way then use y = mx + b)

Does f(x) = - 3x² + 6x - 4 have a maximum or
minimum? Find the value
Answer:
Maximum value.
it = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
Maximum value as the coefficient of x^2 is negative.
To find this value we convert to vertex form:
y = -3x^2 + 6x - 4
y = -3(x^2 - 2x) - 4
y = -3[(x - 1)^2 - 1] - 4
y = -3(x - 1)^2 + 3 - 4
y = =3(x - 1)^2 - 1
Minimum value = -1.

Question 2
Find the equation of the line parallel to y = x - 2 that passes through the point (-3,2).
Answer:
The equation of the required line is y = x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the given line is y = x - 2
The required line = A line parallel to the given line
The point through which the required line passes = (-3, 2)
The general form of the equation of a straight line, is y = m·x + c
Where;
m = The slope of the line
By comparison, the slope of the given line, m = 1
When two lines are parallel, their slope are equal
Therefore, the slope of the required line = m = 1
The equation of the required line in point and slope form is therefore;
y - 2 = x - (-3) = x + 3
∴y = x + 3 + 2 = x + 5
The equation of the required line is therefore;
y = x + 5.

Find the radius y of circle C, given that x = 12 and z = y + 8.
PLEASEEE HELP ME
The radius of the given circle is 5, option C is correct.
What is Trigonometry?Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.
In the given figure, y is the radius.
By pythagoras theorem we find the radius
In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides.
AC²+AB²=BC²
y²+12²=(y+8)²
y²+12²=y²+64+16y
144=16y+64
Subtract 64 from both sides
144-64 = 16y
80=16y
Divide both sides by 16
y=5
Hence, the radius of the given circle is 5, option C is correct.

Find the word or phrases that best complete the sentence intersecting planes ___ intersect in exactly one point
Answer:
never
Step-by-step explanation:
Intersecting planes are planes that intersect along a given line.
To explain this better, consider the following definitions:
i. A point: This is denoted by a dot and it is a location marked on a space or a plane.
ii. A line: This is the distance between two points. It is one-dimensional.
iii. A plane: This is a two-dimensional, flat surface with no thickness formed by points and extends infinitely.
Therefore, since intersecting planes intersect along a line, it is not possible that they intersect in exactly one point given that a line is the distance between points.

Mrs. Smith is creating a rectangular flower bed such that the width is half of the
length. The area of the flower bed is 34 square feet. Write and solve an equation
to determine the width of the flower bed, to the nearest tenth of a foot.
Answer:
As for this problem, we will first establish that the length of the flower bed be represented as x, the width of the flower bed be represented as x/2 ,and the area of the flower bed be taken as it is since it is given. We then follow the formula for area which is length multiplied to width which is:
A = LW
we then substitute them
34 square feet = x (x/2)
now all we need to do is find x first.
34 square feet = x squared / 2
now do a cross multiplication
68 square feet = x squared
then get the square root of both sides
8.246 feet = x
Since x is equal to the length of the flower bed, all we have to do to get the width of it is to divide it by 2. So...
W = x/2
W = 8.246 feet / 2
W = 4.123 feet
And since the problem asked it to find the width of the flower bed to the nearest tenth of a foot, the answer would be 4.1 ft.
