Answer 1

Answer:

  x = 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Locate point G on segment DE so that DG = 1 and GE = 4. CG is parallel to AD, so ΔCGE ~ ΔABC. Corresponding sides are proportional.

  AB/BC = CG/GE

  x/1 = 9/4

  x = 9/4

_____

Additional comment

Using the given triangles, you can write the proportion statement as ...

  (9+x)/x = 5/1

We judge this to take more steps to solve, so we prefer the method shown above.

Shawna wanted to boat across the river, but did not know how wide it was. She walked along the shore for 90 feet and sighted across the water to the point she wanted to go. The angle that the sight line made with the shoreline was 65°. What was the distance across the river?​

Answers

The distance across the river, given the angle of the line of sight and the

distance along the shoreline is found using trigonometric ratios.

The distance across the river is approximately 193 feet.

Reasons:

The distance along the the shore Shawna walked before sighting across the river = 90 feet

The angle made by the line of sight and the shoreline, θ = 65°

Required:

The distance across the river.

Solution:

Taking the initial location of Shawna to be the closest place to point she wanted to go across the river, we have;

The shortest distance across the river = A perpendicular line

Therefore, the following sides, form a right triangle;

The line of sight.The distance along the shoreline Shawna walked, andThe closest distance across the river.

Where:

The line of sight = The hypotenuse side

The distance she walked = The adjacent side to angle 65° angle

The closest distance across the river = The opposite side to the 65° angle

By trigonometric ratio, we have;

[tex]\displaystyle tan(\theta) = \frac{Opposite \, side \, to\ angle}{Adjacent\, side \, to\, angle} = \mathbf{\frac{Distance \ across \ the \ river}{Distance \ along \ the \ shoreline}}[/tex]

Which gives;

Opposite side to angle = tan(θ) × Adjacent side to angle

Therefore;

Distance across the river = tan(65°) × 90 feet ≈ 193.0 feet

The distance across the river is approximately 193 feet

(ii) Kolyan has $9 to spend.
Work out the total amount Kolyan spends on water and biscuits as a fraction of the $9.
Give your answer in its lowest terms.

Answers

The amount spent on water and biscuits is $5.4 and $3.6, respectively

From the question, the ratio is given as:

[tex]Biscuits : Water= 3 : 2[/tex]

Represent both proportion as a fraction

[tex]Biscuits = \frac 35[/tex]

[tex]Water= \frac 25[/tex]

Kolyhan has $9.

So, the amount spent on biscuit is:

[tex]Biscuit= \frac 25 \times 9[/tex]

[tex]Biscuit= 3.6[/tex]

The amount spent on water is:

[tex]Water = 9 - 3.6[/tex]

[tex]Water = 5.4[/tex]

Hence, the amount spent on water and biscuits is $5.4 and $3.6, respectively

Malin and Shawn begin with the same number, $t$. Malin subtracts $6$ from $t$ and then divides the result by $6$. Shawn adds $7$ to $t$ and then divides the result by $7$. If Malin's final answer is the same as Shawn's final answer, what was the number $t$

Answers

Answer:

t=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Malin's answer is $\frac{t-6}{6}$. Shawn's answer is $\frac{t+7}{7}$. We know these are equal, so we have the equation

$$\frac{t-6}{6} = \frac{t+7}{7}.$$

To eliminate denominators from the problem, we multiply both sides by $6\cdot 7$:

$$\frac{6\cdot 7\cdot (t-6)}{6} = \frac{6\cdot 7\cdot (t+7)}{7},$$

then simplify to get

$$7\cdot (t-6) = 6\cdot (t+7).$$

The parentheses are important here! For example, the parentheses on the left side of the equation tell us that it is $t-6$, not just $t$, which is multiplied by $7$.

Now we expand using the distributive property:

7t - 7\cdot 6 &= 6t + 6\cdot 7;\\

7t - 42 &= 6t + 42.

Adding $42$ to both sides gives

$$7t = 6t + 84,$$

then subtracting $6t$ from both sides gives $t=\boxed{84}$.

(We can check that starting from $t=84$, Malin and Shawn do indeed get the same final answer -- namely, $13$.)

Miguel glues a ribbon border around the edges of a 5-inch by 8-inch picture to create a frame. What is the total length of ribbon Miguel uses?

Answers

Explanation :-

We are given that the length of the frame is 5 inch and breadth of the frame is 8 inch. And Miguel glues a ribbon border around the edges of the frame. We have to find –the total length of ribbon Miguel uses.

[tex]\qquad[/tex] ☀️So First – we have to find the perimeter of the frame on which the glue is applied and the length of the ribbon used by Miguel. The perimeter of the frame is the total length of ribbon Miguel uses.

Length of the frame is = 5 inchBreadth of the frame is = 8 inch

[tex]\qquad[/tex]____________________

According to the question:-

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \pink{\bf\longrightarrow Perimeter _{(The \:frame) }= The\: total\: length\: of \:ribbon}[/tex]

The frame is in the rectangular shape, as its length and breadth are different . As we know– Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 ( length + breadth ).

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \purple{\bf \longrightarrow Perimeter _{(The \:frame) } = 2 ( length\: of\: the \:frame + breadth \:of \:the\: frame )}[/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow Perimeter _{(The\: frame) } = 2 ( 5 + 8 ) [/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow Perimeter _{(The \:frame) }= 2 ( 5 ) + 2 ( 8 ) [/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \sf \longrightarrow Perimeter _{(The\: frame) }= 10 + 16 [/tex]

[tex]\qquad[/tex][tex] \purple{\bf \longrightarrow Perimeter _{(The \:frame) }= 26\: inch} [/tex]

Henceforth, perimeter of the frame is 26 inch.

Therefore,

Perimeter of the frame = The total length of ribbon.So, The total length of ribbon = 26 inch.

[tex]\qquad[/tex]____________________

The Answer will be 26 inch

Solve 2x^2-x>15

Show your work

Answers

Answer:

  x < -5/2  or  3 < x

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 15 puts the relation into a more standard form:

  2x^2 -x -15 > 0

  (2x +5)(x -3) > 0 . . . . . factor

The zeros of these factors are x = -5/2 and x = 3.

For values of x between those values (-5/2 ≤ x ≤ 3), the product of these factors will be negative or zero. In order for the product to be positive, x must not be in that range.

The solution is ...

  x < -5/2  or  3 < x

_____

Additional comment

Several methods are taught for factoring a quadratic expression. One of my favorite is using a graphing calculator to find the zeros. If p is a zero, then (x-p) is a factor.

Another way to approach the factoring of ax^2 +bx +c is to find factor pairs of the product (ac) that have a total of b. Here, that means finding factors of 2(-15) = -30 that have a sum of -1. Consider ...

  -30 = (1)(-30) = 2(-15) = 3(-10) = 5(-6)

The sums of these pairs are -29, -13, -7, -1. With the values 5 and -6, you can rewrite the quadratic expression as 2x^2 +5x -6x -15. This can be factored by grouping pairs of terms:

  x(2x +5) -3(2x +5)

  (2x +5)(x -3) . . . . . . . the factorization we show above.

You can see on the graph that the quadratic is greater than 0 when x < -2.5 or x > 3.

divide everything by 3:  27x^(4)/x

Hello There!

Your question says that

Now lets convert mixed fraction to improper fraction

[tex]7 \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ so \: 7 \times 3 + 1 = 22 \\ \\ so \: \frac{22}{3} [/tex]

Now let's simplify..

[tex] \frac{22}{3} \times \frac{7}{11} \\ \\ [/tex]

Now simplify 22 and 11 so it will look like

[tex] \frac{2}{ 3} \times \frac{7}{1} \\ \\ multiply \: \frac{2 \times 7}{3 \times 1} \\ \\ = \frac{14}{3} [/tex]

Now lets convert it to mixed fraction...

[tex] \frac{14}{3} = 4 \frac{2}{3} \\ \\ [/tex]

So it is the answer

[tex]4 \: \frac{2}{3} \\ \\ [/tex]
