What Is The Length Of DC?O 2 UnitsO 3untsO 6untsO 9 Unit

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is;

3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, we have that segment DE is parallel to segment CB of triangle ABC

According to triangle proportionality theorem we have that segment DE which is parallel to segment CB of triangle ABC, divides the other two sides the triangle ABC proportionally

We have;

[tex]\overline {DC}[/tex]/[tex]\overline {AD}[/tex]= [tex]\overline {EB}[/tex]/[tex]\overline {AE}[/tex]

[tex]\overline {DC}[/tex]/9 = 4/12

[tex]\overline {DC}[/tex]= 9 × 4/12 = 3

[tex]\overline {DC}[/tex]= 3 units

The length of the segment DC = 3 units.

Find the equation of the line
PLEASE HELP

Answers

Y=-3x+7..................

Answer:

y = -3x +7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a line is: y = mx + b

m = slope

x = the x-value

y = the y-value

b = the y-intercept

Since the y-intercept is 7, we know the first part of the equation is: y = mx +7

Also, since the line is decreasing from right to left, m is going to be negative. A way to calculate the m is rise/run. Count how many blocks it is going horizontally (run)and how many blocks it is increasing/decreasing when going to the right (rise). Then divided the "rise" over "run". Another way is to choose two points. Now use the equation y1-y2/x1-x2,

or  y2-y1/x2-x1. I am going to show using the equation.

My two points are (0,7) and (2,1)

change in y (rise):7-1 = 6

change in x (run): 0-2 = -2

6/-2 = -3. Your slope is -3. Now lets put it all together.

y = -3x +7

You can see that for every square moved to the right ONCE the y value is decreasing by 3 each time.

Rewrite y+3=−(x−5) in standard form .

Answers

Answer:

x + y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

Given

y + 3 = - (x - 5) ← distribute

y + 3 = - x + 5 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - x + 2 ( add x to both sides )

x + y = 2 ← in standard form

Your friend estimated that it would take 5 hours to finish an art project. It actually took him 16 hours to finish the project. The amount of time it took to finish the project was blank percent of the estimated time. What does it mean to have more than 100% of something?

Answers

Answer:

like if you have a bowl of popcorn, it is probably gonna be more than 100% full.

Step-by-step explanation:

for the blank, it is 320% i believe

Answer and explanation:

Estimated time to finish the project = 5 hours

Actual time taken to finish the project = 16 hours

Therefore the amount of time/actual time it took to finish the project = 16/5*100/1= 320% of estimated time to finish the project

When something is more than 100 percent of a thing then it is bigger than that thing. For instance, If it took your friend exactly 5 hours to finish the project, then it took him 100 percent of the estimated time. If it took him more than that time, then it is more than 100 percent of estimated time.

Hence, 100 percent of a thing then it is equal to that thing, if more, 120 percent, then it is more or bigger than that thing. If less than 100 percent then it is less than that thing.

What is the solution to this system of equations?

Ono solution

Answers

Answer:

one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

1/4x + 1 1/2y =5/8 ..... 1

3/4x - 1 1/2y =3 3/8 ..... 2

Get the value of x

Add both equations

1/4x + 3/4x = 5/8+3 3/8

4x/4 = 5/8+27/8

x = 32/8

x= 4

Substitute x = 4 into equation 1

From 1;

1/4x + 1 1/2y =5/8 .

1/4(4) + 3/2 y = 5/8

1 + 3/2 y = 5/8

3/2 y = 5/8 - 1

3/2 y = -3/8

Cross multiply

24y = -6

y = -6/24

y = -1/4

Hence the solution {x,y) is (4, -1/4)

The system has only one solution

A two-digit positive integer x has the property that when 109 is divided by x, the remainder is 4. What is the sum of all such two-digit positive integers x

Answers

Answer:

The sum of the two digits integers which divide 109 with a remainder of 4 is 71

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

109/x = Q + 4/x

Therefore, we have;

109 = Q·x + 4

∴ Q·x = 109 - 4 = 105

x = 105/Q

Therefore, x is a factor of 105

The possible two digits integers which x represents includes the two digit factors of 105 which are;

15, 21, and 35

Which gives;

15 × 7 = 105

21 × 5 = 105

35 × 3 = 105

The sum of the two digits integers which divide 109 with a remainder of 4 is 15 + 21 + 35 = 71.

Consider a political discussion group consisting of 8 ​Democrats, 4 ​Republicans, and 2 Independents. Suppose that two group members are randomly​ selected, in​ succession, to attend a political convention. Find the probability of selecting no Democrats

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 30/182

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people to select from is

8 + 4 + 2 = 14

We want to select two who are not democrats

Probability of selecting first one who is not a democrat will be 6/14

Probability of selecting a second who is not a democrat will be 5/13

So the probability of the two not being democrats will be 6/14 * 5/13 = 30/182

Searches related to As part of a promotion, a local ice cream store is giving away free ice cream cones to the first 20 customers After that, ice cream cones cost $3.00 Is the store's profit proportional to the number of customers? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, store's profit is proportional to number of customers

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, the profit is proportional to the number of customers.

Profit = Revenue - Cost = (Price x Quantity) -  Cost

Profit = (0 x 20) + (3 x q) - c(20+q) : Where q refers to quantity beyond 20, & c is average cost per unit

Profit = 3q - 20c - cq = (3 - c)q + 20c

As 20c is constant, component of equation has coefficient 'q' which stands for quantity of sales ie number of customers

What is 345 divied by 189 remander2

Answers

Answer:

37

4 remander

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Start by setting it up with the divisor 5 on the left side and the dividend 189 on the right side like this:

           

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

Step 2:

The divisor (5) goes into the first digit of the dividend (1), 0 time(s). Therefore, put 0 on top:

       0    

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

Step 3:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (5 x 0 = 0) and write that answer below the dividend.

       0    

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

      0    

Step 4:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the first digit of the dividend (1 - 0 = 1) and write the answer below.

       0    

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1    

Step 5:

Move down the 2nd digit of the dividend (8) like this:

       0    

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

Step 6:

The divisor (5) goes into the bottom number (18), 3 time(s). Therefore, put 3 on top:

       0 3  

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

Step 7:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (5 x 3 = 15) and write that answer at the bottom:

       0 3  

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

       1 5  

Step 8:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (18 - 15 = 3) and write the answer at the bottom.

       0 3  

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

     - 1 5  

         3  

Step 9:

Move down the last digit of the dividend (9) like this:

       0 3  

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

     - 1 5  

         3 9

Step 10:

The divisor (5) goes into the bottom number (39), 7 time(s). Therefore put 7 on top:

       0 3 7

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

     - 1 5  

         3 9

Step 11:

Multiply the divisor by the result in the previous step (5 x 7 = 35) and write the answer at the bottom:

       0 3 7

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

     - 1 5  

         3 9

         3 5

Step 12:

Subtract the result in the previous step from the number written above it. (39 - 35 = 4) and write the answer at the bottom.

       0 3 7

   5 ⟌ 1 8 9

     - 0    

       1 8  

     - 1 5  

         3 9

     -   3 5

           4

You are done, because there are no more digits to move down from the dividend.

The answer is the top number and the remainder is the bottom number.

Therefore, the answer to 189 divided by 5 calculated using Long Division is:

Noah is solving an equation, and one of his moves is unacceptable. Here are the moves he made.

Which answer best explains why the “divide each side by step” is unacceptable?

a. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by X you get 2x² = 6x²

b. When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

c. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by x you get 2 = 6x.

d. When you divide both sides of 2x = 6x by x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 3

Answers

Answer:

b. When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is correct up to the step 2x = 6x

2x = 6x

Subtract 2x from both sides.

0 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4.

x = 0

You cannot divide both sides by x since x could be zero, and in fact, it is.

Answer: b. When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

The correct option is (b) When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

What is a linear equation?

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

It is given that:

The linear equation is:

2(x + 6) - 4 = 8 + 6x

After simplifying the above linear equation in one variable:

2x = 6x

The correct steps are:

6x - 2x = 0

4x = 0

x = 0

When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

Thus, the statement best explains that “divide each side by step” is unacceptable" is When you divide both sides by 2x = 6x it could lead us to think that there is no solution while, in fact, the solution is x = 0.

6. The measures of two angles are (4x + 19) and (7x -29)°. What is the value of x if
these angles are congruent?

Answers

Answer:

The value of x is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two angles are:

(4x + 19) and (7x -29)°

Two angles being congruent means that their numerical values will be equal

Putting both expressions equal

[tex]4x+19 = 7x-29[/tex]

Subtracting 7x from both sides

[tex]4x+19-7x = 7x-29-7x\\-3x+19 = -29[/tex]

subtracting 19 from both sides

[tex]-3x+19-19 = -29-19\\-3x = -48[/tex]

Dividing both sides by -3

[tex]\frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{-48}{-3}\\x = 16[/tex]

Hence,

The value of x is 16

So since they mentioned tangent I am guessing you need to use sin and cosine.

Usually we use sin, cosine and tan when we have an angle and we need to find one of the sides (look at the picture below)

But since now we have the sides and we need to find the angle, we need to use something called sin inverse or arcsin.

X=sin^-1 (6/14)

Note: sin^-1 is the same as saying sine inverse same as saying arcsin.

If we use this it will give us the required angle..

X=25.377 or X=25.4 degrees
