An angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side of the triangle into segments2 cm and 5cm long. The second side of the triangle is 7.5 cm long. Find all possible lengths for the third side of the triangle.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3 cm or 18.75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the third side is x.

According to Triangle-angle-bisector theorem, we have the possible ratios:

x/7.5 = 2/5

or

x / 7.5 = 5/2

Solve for x in each case:

1)

x = 7.5*2/5 = 3 cm

2)

x = 7.5*5/2 = 18.75 cm

Is 690,269 divisible by 9? Yes or No?
False, But I do not know why, I do not know whether it is false or not, but I think it is false.

Answers

Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is false because when dividing an odd number by an odd number, it usually isn't divisible. In this case, 690,269. Is an odd number, because the last number, 9, is odd, which makes the whole thing odd. So, odd divided by odd never turns out well. (By the way the answer is 76,696.5555556).

Answer:

f(x)=2x−5 if x≤−3

Since the value of x is -3, the first function will be the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is -

f(x)=2x−5 if x≤−3

f(x)=−3x+4 if x>−3

Now we have to evaluate f(-3).

Since we have to calculate the value of f at x = -3, we have to choose the first function.

That is f(x) = 2x - 5.

Hence,

f(−3)=2∗(−3)−5=−6−5=−11

Therefore we have the value

f(−3)=−11

Since the domain of the function is divided into two parts, we have to choose any one function for a given value of x,

For values of x less than or equal to -3, we will use the first function. That is,

f(x)=2x−5 for all x∈(−∞,−3]

And for values of x greater than -3, we will use the second function. That means,

f(x)=−3x+4 for all x∈(−3,∞)

A computer repair shop charges a flat rate of $50 plus $35 per hour spent repairing each computer. How much will the repair shop charge if the shop does 2.5 hours of work?

Answers

So we know no matter what, there will be a flat charge of $50, and then $35 for ever hour

Since it is 2.5 hours of work, it will cost 35 * 2.5, but we need to include the flat rate so we get the expression

50 + (35*2.5) = 50 + 87.5 = $137.50

In addition to paying for the gasoline, Mrs. Thomas must also pay $13.92 fo her lunch and $32.98 for her dinner. What is the total amount of her meal expenses?

a. What is the total amount of her gasoline and meal expenses?
b. What operation did you use to figure it out ?

Answers

Answer:

a. $70.43

b. 23.43 + 13.92 + 32.98 = t (UNSURE)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Mrs. Thomas is driving 231 miles using 23 miles per gallon, let's start by dividing 231 by 23

[tex]\frac{231}{23} = 10.043....[/tex]

We need to round 10.043... to 11 because you can't get part of a gallon.

Now, we need to multiply 2.13 by 11 to get the total amount of money for gasoline.

[tex]11 * 2.13 = 23.43[/tex]$

We also have the aditional meal expenses, which are $13.92 and $32.98.

We can use an equation to solve. Our total amount will be represented by t.

[tex]23.43 + 13.92 + 32.98 = t[/tex]

[tex]t = 70.43[/tex]

What would be the total cost of purchasing the number of shirts needed to use your coupon—after your coupon is applied and a 7. 5% sales tax is charged on the purchase?.

Answers

The cost of purchasing the number of shirts after discount and sale tax is $40.3125.

What is the percentage?

The amount of something is expressed as if it is a part of the total which is a hundred. The ratio can be expressed as a fraction of 100. The word percent means per 100. It is represented by the symbol ‘%’.

The discount is 25%.

The total price before the coupon is $50.

The sale tax is 7.5%

The cost of purchasing the number of shirts after discount will be

[tex]\rm Cost = 50*(1-0.75 )\\\\Cost = 97.5[/tex]

The cost of purchasing the number of shirts after the sale will be

[tex]\rm Cost = 37.5*(1.075)\\\\Cost = 40.3125[/tex]

The cost of purchasing the number of shirts after discount and sale tax is $40.3125.

Someone solve for a and b pls

Answers

Answer:

  a) rise 5, run 5, slope 1

  b) rise 10, run 5, slope 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The rise is the vertical difference between the points. It is the length of the vertical side of the triangle you have drawn. You can determine that length by counting grid squares or by finding the difference of the y-coordinates of the points.

The run is the horizontal difference between the points. It is the length of the horizontal side of the triangle you have drawn. You can determine that length by counting grid squares or by finding the difference of the x-coordinates of the points.

a)

rise = 5; run = 5. (counting grid squares)

slope = rise/run = 5/5 = 1

__

b)

rise = 10; run = 5. (taking coordinate differences: 5-(-5) = 10; 4-(-1) = 5)

slope = rise/run = 10/5 = 2
