Let $F,$ $G,$ and $H$ be collinear points on the Cartesian plane such that $\frac{FG}{GH} = 1.$ If $F = (a, b)$ and $H = (7a, c)$, then what is the $x$-coordinate of $G$?

Answers

Answer 1

F, G, and H all lie on the same line. If FG/GH = 1, then FG = GH, which is to say the distance between F and G is equal to the distance between G and H. This means either F and H are the same point, or G is the midpoint of F and H.

They're not the same point, because the x-coordinate of H is 7 times that of F. So G must be halfway between F and H.

Then the x-coordinate of G is

(a + 7a)/2 = 8a/2 = 4a

Rajesh gave ½ of his provident fund to his wife, ¼ to his son and the remainder was to be divided equally between his two brothers so that each brother got Rs 10000. What was the amount of provident fund ?​

Answers

1/2 was for his wife so 1/2 was left
from the 1/2, 1/4 went to the son so 1/4 was left
1/4 was divided to two brothers which are 1/8 for each brother --> 1/8 = 10000
therefore 10000 *8 = 80000 = 100% of the fund
Answer:  Rs 80000

This is the number 80 thousand

==========================================================

Explanation:

1/2, aka 2/4, of the original fund was given to his wife and 1/4 was given to his son. That totals 3/4 since 2/4+1/4 = (2+1)/4 = 3/4.

In short, 3/4 of the fund is distributed between the wife and son. That leaves 1/4 of the fund for the two brothers to share equally.

Imagine a cake cut into quarters. Then cut each slice in half to get eighths, i.e. there are 8 equal slices. This means each brother gets 1/8 of the fund.

Since each brother got Rs 10000, this must mean the original fund is worth 8*10000 = 80000

Taking 1/8 of Rs 80000 will get us Rs 10000 for each brother.

----------------------------------

Checking the answer:

original fund amount = 80000

1/2 of 80000 = 40000 is the amount the wife gets

1/4 of 80000 = 20000 is the amount the son gets

That totals 40000+20000 = 60000 leaving 80000-60000 = 20000 leftover for the two brothers to share. Cut that 20 thousand figure in half to arrive at Rs 10000 for each brother. These steps help confirm the answer.

----------------------------------

Another method using algebra:

x = original amount of the fund

W = x/2 = 2x/4 = half of the fund = amount wife gets

S = x/4 = quarter of the fund = amount the son gets

W+S = (2x/4) + (x/4) = (2x+x)/4 = 3x/4

W+S represents the sum of the wife's and son's amounts.

We'll subtract this from the original amount x to find out what's left

x - (W+S) = x - (3x/4) = (4x/4) - (3x/4) = (4x-3x)/4 = x/4

This shows that 1/4 of the fund is left over after distributing to the wife and son.

The amount x/4 is then cut in half to get x/8 to represent the amount each brother gets. We're told that amount is Rs 10000

So,

x/8 = 10000

x = 8*10000

x = 80000

The original fund is worth Rs 80000

7. A cargo train covers 375 km in 15 hours. Find: b) time taken to travel 770 km.​

Answers

Answer:

30 hours 48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the relationship

average speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{375}{15}[/tex] = 25 Km / hour

Then

time = [tex]\frac{distance}{speed}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{770}{25}[/tex] = 30.8 hours = 30 hours 48 minutes

Answer:

30.8 or 30 hours and 48 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

375 km > 15 Hours

Divide 375 and 15, equals to 25.

So, to proof that 375 is equals to 15 hours, divide 375 and 25 then you will get the answer 15. :)

Now, divide 770 and 25 to get the time taken to travel 770km.

And the answer is 30.8 hrs or... 30hrs and 48mins

Answer:

Part A: The origin would be (0, 0)

Part B:

(-1, 1)  starting from the origin (0,0), would move left 1 on the x-axis  then you would move up 1 on the y-axis

(1, -1.5)  starting from the origin (0,0), you would move to the right 1 on the x-axis, then you would move down 1.5 on the y-axis

(2, 1/4) starting from the origin (0,0), you would move to the right 2 on the x-axis, then you would move up 1/4 (.25).

a) The origin would be (0, 0).

What are Coordinates?

Coordinates are a pair of integers (Cartesian coordinates), or sporadically a letter and a number, that identify a certain place on a grid, also referred to as a coordinate plane. The x axis (horizontal) and y axis (Verticle) are the two axes that make up a coordinate plane.

Answers

Answer:

The test  has 10 3-point questions and 14 5-point questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 24

3x + 5y = 100

From the first equation:

3x + 3y = 72

Subtracting:

3x - 3x + 5y - 3y = 100 -72

2y = 28

so y = 14

x + 14 = 24 so x = 10.

10*3 + 5*14

= 30 + 70 = 100 points.

What is the Equation of the Line in Slope Intercept form?

The general form of the equation of a Line in Slope Intercept form is;

y = mx + c

where;

m is slope

c is y-intercept

We are told that the graph has the points (0, 6) and (2, 1). Thus, the formula for slope is;

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (1 - 6)/(2 - 0)

m = -5/2

m = -2.5

Now, since the y-intercept is at (0, 6), then it means that;

c = 6

Thus, the equation of the line is; y = -2.5x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 4 and angle 6 = 180 degrees, so

3x = 2x + 10

x = 10

Angle 7 is congruent to angle 6, so it is also 2x + 10, x = 10, so it is 30 degrees.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ 4 and ∠ 6 are same- side interior angles and sum to 180° , that is

(a)

3x + 2x + 20 = 180 , simplifying

(b)

5x + 20 = 180 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

5x = 160 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 32

(c)
