Answer:

  98 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways you can think about this one. Perhaps easiest is to treat it as a square with a triangle cut out of it. The cutout triangle has a base (across the top) of 14 ft and a height of 14 ft, so its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(14 ft)(14 ft) = 98 ft²

Of course the area of the square from which it is cut is ...

  A = (14 ft)² = 196 ft²

So, the net area of the two triangles shown is ...

  A = (196 ft²) - (98 ft²) = 98 ft²

_____

Another way to work this problem is to attack it directly. Let the base of the left triangle be x. Then the base of the right triangle is 14-x, and their total area is ...

  A = A1 + A2 = (1/2)(x ft)(14 ft) + (1/2)((14-x) ft)(14 ft)

We can factor out 7 ft to get ...

  A = (7 ft)(x ft + (14 -x) ft)

  A = (7 ft)(14 ft) = 98 ft²

Answer:

x=9 and x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

GFC = 9 => 9(x²-6x-16) =0

9(x-8)(x+2) = 0

x-b=0    x+2= 0

x=8 and x = -2

Solving the quadratic equation, it is found that the company needs to sell 8 products for the net income to be equal $0.

It is given by:

f(x) = 9x² - 54x - 144.

It can be simplified as follows:

f(x) = 9(x² - 6x - 16)

Then:

f(x) = 9[(x + 2)(x - 8)]

It has a net income equals to 0 when:

f(x) = 0, hence:

The amount of products sold is positive, hence, the company needs to sell 8 products for the net income to be equal $0.

Answer:

The coordinates of C are (5 , 2)

The slope of CD is 3

The coordinates of D are (6 , 5) and (4 , -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Now lets study the problem

- The ends points of line AB are A = 2 , 3) and B = (8 , 1)

- CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB, and C lies on AB

- That means:

# C is the mid-point of AB

# The slope of AB × the slope of CD = -1 (one of them is a multiplicative

  inverse and additive inverse of the other)

-Ex: the slope of one is a/b, then the slope of the other is -b/a

* The mid-point between two points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

  [(x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2]

∵ C is the mid-point of AB

∴ C = [(2 + 8)/2 , (3 + 1)/2] = [10/2 , 4/2] = (5 , 2)

* The coordinates of C are (5 , 2)

- The slope of a line passing through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

 the slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

∴ The slope of AB = (1 - 3)/(8 -2) = -2/6 = -1/3

∵ CD ⊥ AB

∴ The slope of CD × the slope of AB = -1

∴ The slope of CD = 3

* The slope of CD is 3

- The length of a line passing through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) is:

 the length = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

∵ The length of CD = √10

∵ Point D is (x , y)

∴ (x - 5)² + (y - 2)² = (√10)²

∴ (x - 5)² + (y - 2)² = 10 ⇒ (1)

∵ The slope of CD is (y - 2)/(x - 5) = 3 ⇒ by using cross multiply

∴ (y - 2) = 3(x - 5) ⇒ (2)

- Substitute (2) in (1)

∴ (x - 5)² + [3(x - 5)]² = 10 ⇒ simplify

* [3(x - 5)]² = (3)²(x - 5)² = 9(x - 5)²

∴ (x - 5)² + 9(x - 5)² = 10 ⇒ add the like terms

∴ 10(x - 5)² = 10 ⇒ ÷ 10 both sides

∴ (x - 5)² = 1 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ x - 5 = ± 1

∴ x - 5 = 1 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ x = 6

* OR

∴ x - 5 = -1 ⇒ add 5 to both sides

∴ x = 4

- Substitute the values of x in (2)

∴ y - 2 = 3(6 - 5)

∴ y - 2 = 3 ⇒ add 2

∴ y = 5

* OR

∴ y - 2 = 3(4 - 5)

∴ y - 2 = -3 ⇒ add 2

∴ y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

on edge! hope this helps!!~ （‐＾▽＾‐）

The information in the diagram is enough to determine that △LMN ~ △PON using a rotation and dilation because one pair of congruent corresponding angles is sufficient to determine similar triangles. Therefore, option c is the correct answer.

The information in the diagram is enough to determine that △LMN ~ △PON using a rotation about point N and a dilation because one pair of congruent corresponding angles is sufficient to determine similar triangles.

In order to determine that two triangles are similar, you need to establish that their corresponding angles are congruent, and their corresponding sides are in proportion.

In the given scenario, you have △LMN and △PON. The key information is that ∠MNL and ∠ONP are congruent angles. This means that one pair of corresponding angles is equal.

According to the Angle-Angle (AA) similarity theorem, if you have two pairs of corresponding angles that are congruent, the triangles are similar. In this case, you have one pair of congruent corresponding angles, ∠MNL ≅ ∠ONP, which is sufficient to determine that △LMN ~ △PON.

The statement "because one pair of congruent corresponding angles is sufficient to determine similar triangles" is the correct explanation for why △LMN is similar to △PON using a rotation about point N and a dilation.

Therefore, option c is the correct answer.

Answer:

8.91

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  0.95 = log x,

we can conclude that:

    0.95            log x

10             =  10

                                                          0.95

which in turn is equivalent to x = 10            whose value is  8.91

Final answer:

To solve 0.95 = log x, we apply the inverse of the logarithmic function, raising 10 to the power of 0.95 to find that x ≈ 8.9125.

Explanation:

To solve the given equation 0.95 = log x, we need to understand that 'log' usually refers to a logarithm with base 10, unless otherwise stated. To find the value of x, we must revert the logarithmic equation back to its exponential form. In this case, we are finding the power to which 10 must be raised to give the value x.

The inverse operation for a base 10 logarithm is raising 10 to the power of whatever the logarithm equals. Applying this principle to our equation, we have:

x = 100.95

Using a calculator, we would get:

x ≈ 8.9125

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph of the function f(x) we have:

        When f(x)=0  ,   x= -1.8

By looking at the graph we observe that the graph first increases in the interval (-∞,-1.2) and then it decreases in the interval (-1.2,0.6) and then again it increases in the interval (0.6,∞).

Hence, the graph of the function is neither strictly increasing nor strictly decreasing in the whole of the real line.

Also, when x=0 the value of the function is: f(x)=5

( Since, the graph passes through the point (0,5) )

Also, when f(x)=0

then x= -1.8

( Since, the graph of the function passes through the point (-1.8,0) )

The provided scenario that relates to the equation y = 2x + 5 involves starting with 5 chickens on a farm and then doubling the number each month.

For the farm scenario with chickens, the number of chickens each month is not 2 times the number in the month before plus five, but rather 2 times the previous month's number. This does not fit the equation y = 2x + 5, where x would represent time in months and y would represent the total number of chickens.

In Nina's book-selling scenario, for each book she sells, she earns $2 plus a $5 tip. This fits the equation perfectly, where x represents the number of books Nina sells and y represents her total earnings. So, for Nina's scenario, Yes, it models the equation.

The temperature scenario also fits the equation y = 2x + 5, where x represents the number of hours after 8:00 AM and y represents the temperature in degrees Celsius. Thus, for every hour, the temperature increases by 2 degrees, starting from 5 degrees at 8:00 AM. So, for the temperature scenario, Yes, it models the equation.

Answer:

x= 35 gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= 40  gallons consumed by 2nd car

Step-by-step explanation:

Fuel efficiency of 1st car = 15 miles per gallon

Fuel efficiency of 2nd car = 35 miles per gallon

Let x= gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= gallons consumed by 2nd car

Total gallons consumed by both cars = 75

so, we can write

x + y = 75

Miles covered by both cars = 1925 miles

and we know, Fuel efficiency of 1st car = 15 miles per gallon

Fuel efficiency of 2nd car = 35 miles per gallon

we can write the equation as

15 x + 35 y = 1925

where x and y are gallons consumed by 1st and 2nd car.

We have two equation now,

x + y = 75                   (1)

15 x + 35 y = 1925     (2)

Multiplying eq(1) with 15 and subtracting eq (1) and 2

15 x + 15 y = 1125

15 x + 35 y = 1925

-       -            -

_______________

0 - 20 y = -800

y= -800 / -20

y = 40

Putting value of y in equation 1

x + y = 75

x + 40 = 75

x= 75 - 40

x = 35

x= 35 gallons consumed by 1st car

and y= 40  gallons consumed by 2nd car

The first car consumed 50 gallons of gas and the second car consumed 25 gallons of gas that week.

Let's denote the number of gallons consumed by the first car as x and the number of gallons consumed by the second car as y. Then, we have the following two equations based on the mileage and the total gas consumption:

To solve these two equations, you can first solve the second equation for x, x = 75 - y, and then substitute it into the first equation: 15(75 - y) + 35y = 1925. This gives you y = 25. So, the second car consumed 25 gallons of gas. As the total gas consumption is 75 gallons, the first car must have consumed 75 - 25 = 50 gallons of gas.

r = 8

Surface Area = 4 * pi * 64

Surface Area = 256 * pi

The surface area of the sphere is [tex]\( 256\pi \)[/tex] square yards.

To find the surface area of a sphere given its great circle circumference, we can use the relationship between the circumference and the radius of the sphere.

The formula for the circumference of a great circle of a sphere is:

[tex]\[ C = 2\pi r \][/tex]

We can solve for the radius r

[tex]\[ 16\pi = 2\pi r \][/tex]

r = 8

Next, we use the formula for the surface area A of a sphere:

Step-by-step explanation:

When we ask "six is what fraction of 15?", we're asking this: how much of 15 does 6 take up? Just looking at a picture of it, if we have 15 pieces of a whole cake, 6 of those pieces take up a little less than half of that total. We represent this with the fraction 6/15. Now, 6 and 15 have something in common, too: they can both be divided by 3. Take a look at the second picture now. Notice that when we divide the total number of parts and the number of pieces by the same number, the amount those pieces take up stays exactly the same. Since 6 divided by 3 is 2 and 15 divided by 3 is 5, we can say that 6/15 = 2/5, and we can't go any further than that.

Percents are just a special kind of fraction; ones that have 100 in their denominator (the word "percent" literally means "for each 100"). We also have a special way of writing percents: 6/100 would be written as 6%, 50/100 would be 50%, and 100/100 would be 100%.

Remember when I showed how fractions can be equal to each other if you can divide both number by the same thing? You can do the same thing in the other direction: you can create equivalent fractions by multiplying both numbers by the same number.

So, we want to go from 2/5 to ?/100 (we don't know what number ? is yet!) but how do we get there? Well, remember, for two fractions to be equal, you have to multiply both the top and bottom by the same number. Whatever we multiply 5 by to get 100, we'll have to multiply 2 by to get that ?

Well 5 × 20 = 100, so 20 seems to fit the bill, and multiplying 2 × 20 gets us 40, making our fraction 2/5 = 40/100, which we'd write as 40%.

So 6 is 2/5 of 15, which is the same as 40% of 15!

that is incorrect. you would have to do $3.00 divided by 60 which is equal to 0.05. therefore, each crayon costs 0.05. the way you can check that this is right is to do 0.05 multiplied by 60 which will get you to $3.00

Answer:

3.00 is the correct answer
