In triangle ABC, D is a point on line AB and E is a point on line AC such that DE is parallel to BC. If BC = 20 centimeters, and the area of the trapezoid (trapezium) DBCE is one-fourth the area of triangle ABC, find DE.
Step-by-step Answer:
If trapezium DBCE is one-fourth of the area of the triangle ABC, that means that the area of triange ADE is (1 - 1/4) = three-fourth of ABC.
Since DE is parallel to BC, we can prove that triangles ADE and ABC are similar.
Similar triangles have corresponding sides proportional, and area is proportional to the square of the linear proportions.
From this we can conclude that
(DE/BC)^2 = 3/4
DE/BC = sqrt(3/4) = sqrt(3)/2
DE = sqrt(3)/2 * 20 = 10 sqrt(3) = 17.320508 cm (to 6 decimal places).
On the subject of similar figures/volumes, if we know the ratio of linear dimensions (such as the side of a cube) as k, then the ratio of AREA of similar squares would be k^2.
Example: A square would have a side of 8 (area=8^2=64), and a (similar) square has a side of 10 (area = 10^2= 100). The
ratio of areas = 64/100 = (8^2/10^2) = (8/10)^2
Here 8/10 is the ratio of linear dimensions = k, and the ratio of areas is k^2 = (8/10)^2 = 64/100.
The same works for cubes (or similar volumes) where the volumes would be proportional to k^3.

A cell-phone company has noticed that the probability of a customer experiencing a dropped call decreases as the customer approaches a cell-site base station. A company representative approached a cell site at a constant speed and calculated the probability of a dropped call at regular intervals, and the probabilities formed the geometric sequence 0.8, 0.4, 0.2, 0.1, 0.05. If the company representative continues calculating the probability of a dropped call, what will be the next term in the sequence?
Answer:
the answer is 0.00221184
Step-by-step explanation:
as we can see 3rd term is product of first two terms
4th term is product of third and second term
5th term is the product of fourth and third term
the next term in the sequence which is the sixth term will be the product of fifth and fourth term
Answer:
The next term of geometric sequence is 0.025 which is the probability of dropped call.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
The probability of a customer experiencing a dropped call decreases formed the geometric sequence.
The geometric sequence is:
0.8, 0.4, 0.2, 0.1, 0.05
First term = a = 0.8
Common difference = r =[tex]\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n-1}} = \frac{0.4}{0.8} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
We have to find the next term of the geometric series to find the next probability.
Next term of sequence =
[tex]a_n = a_{n-1}\times r\\= 0.05\times \displaystyle\frac{1}{2}\\\\= 0.025[/tex]
Hence, the next term of geometric sequence is 0.025 which is the probability of dropped call.
Three friends are starting a food truck and are contributing a total of $140,000 to begin operations. Their investments are in the ratio of 3:4:7. What is the difference in investment between the smallest investor an largest investor?
Answer:
The difference in investment between the smallest investor an largest investor is $40,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ---> the contribution of the smallest investor
y ---> the contribution of the middle investor
z ---> the contribution of the largest investor
we know that
x+y+z=140,000 -----> equation A
x/y=3/4 -----> y=(4/3)x ----> equation B
x/z=3/7 ----> z=(7/3)x ----> equation C
substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for x
x+(4/3)x+(7/3)x=140,000
(14/3)x=140,000
x=140,000*3/14
x=$30,000
Find the value of y
y=(4/3)x ----> y=(4/3)(30,000)=$40,000
Find the value of z
z=(7/3)x ----> z=(7/3)(30,000)=$70,000
Find the difference in investment between the smallest investor an largest investor
z-x=$70,000-$30,000=$40,000

A function is graphed on the coordinate plane.
what is the value of the function when x = 4
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
y = 1/2 x - 1
y = 1/2 (4) - 1
y = 2 - 1
y = 1
When x = 4, the function y = (1/2)x - 1 evaluates to y = 1. This linear equation has a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of -1.
To find the value of the function y = (1/2)x - 1 when x = 4, you simply need to substitute x = 4 into the equation and solve for y:
y = (1/2)(4) - 1
y = 2 - 1
y = 1
So, when x = 4, the value of the function y is 1.
In a more general sense, this equation represents a linear function with a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of -1. The slope (1/2) represents the rate of change, meaning that for every unit increase in x, y increases by 1/2. The y-intercept (-1) is the value of y when x is 0.
When x = 4, as calculated above, y is 1. This means that if you were to plot this function on a coordinate plane, the point (4, 1) would lie on the graph.

How do you determine the limit algebraically?
Answer:
- 0.0625
Step-by-step explanation:
Again, I don't know of another way besides Calculus other than letting x = something very tiny.
When you use calculus, the answer approaches - 1/16 = - 0.0625 (I think). So we'll let x = 0.01 and see how that goes.
numerator: 1/(0.01 + 4) - 1/4
(0.24938 - 0.25) / 0.01
- 0.000623 / 0.01 = - 0.0623 which is pretty close considering what I used for x. You could try it with 0.0001 which will get much closer.

Kendra sold 200 shares through her broker on June 8. The price per share was $22.10. The broker charged her a 0.5% commission on the total value. What was Kendra’s return on the trade?
A. $4,397.90
B. $4,420.00
C. $4,596.90
D. $4,620.00
Answer:
A. $4397.9
Explanation:
We are given that Kendra sold 200 shares and that the price per share was $22.1
This means that:
Total value = 200 * 22.1 = $4420
Now, we know that the broker charged 0.5% commission on the total value
This means that:
Broker's charge = 0.5% * 4420 = 0.005 * 4420 = $22.1
Therefore,
Kendra's return = Total value - broker's charge
Kendra's return = 4420 - 22.1 = $4397.9

Find the standard form of the equation of the parabola with a focus at (0, 8) and a directrix at y = -8.
Select one:
a. y = 1/32 x^2
b. y^2 = 8x
c. y^2 = 32x
d. y = 1/8 x^2
The standard form of the equation of the parabola with a focus at (0, 8) and a directrix at y = -8 is y = 1/32 x², as it is the only option that correctly represents a parabola opening upward with the vertex at the origin and a focus 8 units away.
To find the standard form of the equation of the parabola with a focus at (0, 8) and a directrix at y = -8, we begin by noting that the vertex of the parabola will be midway between the focus and directrix. Since the focus is 8 units above the x-axis and the directrix is 8 units below the x-axis, the vertex is at the origin (0, 0).
The distance between the vertex and the focus (which is also the distance between the vertex and the directrix) is 8 units; this distance is the value 'p' in the parabola's standard equation.
The parabola opens upward because the focus is above the directrix. The standard form for an upward-opening parabola centered at the origin is y = {1}/{4p}x². In our case, p = 8, so the equation becomes y = {1}/{4(8)}x² which simplifies to y = {1}/{32}x².
Based on the options available, the correct standard form of the equation of the parabola is A. y = {1}/{32}x².

A conical perfume bottle has a radius of 3.7 centimeters and a height of 5.4 centimeters. Using 3.14 for , approximately how much perfume can the bottle hold? A. 338.78 cubic centimeters B. 112.93 cubic centimeters C. 232.13 cubic centimeters D. 77.38 cubic centimeters
The volume of the conical perfume bottle is 77.38 cubic centimeters of perfume, answer D.
To calculate the volume of a conical perfume bottle, we use the formula for the volume of a cone, which is V = (1/3)
3.14r²h, where r is the radius and h is the height of the cone. Given the radius of 3.7 centimeters and a height of 5.4 centimeters, we calculate:
V = (1/3)
3.14 * (3.7 cm)² * 5.4 cm
= (1/3) * 3.14 * 13.69 cm2 * 5.4 cm
= (1/3) * 3.14 * 73.926 cm3
= 3.14 * 24.642 cm3
= 77.38 cubic centimeters
Therefore, the perfume bottle can hold approximately 77.38 cubic centimeters of perfume, which corresponds to answer choice D.
Write an equation of the line that is parallel to 2x + 4y = 6 and passes through the point (6, 4).
A) y = 2x + 4
B) y = 2x - 8
C) y = -2x + 16
D) y = -12x + 7
Answer:
The answer is D my friends. Good luck.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line parallel to 2x + 4y = 6 and passing through the point (6, 4) is y = -0.5x + 7.
Explanation:To find an equation of a line parallel to a given line, we need to find a line with the same slope.
First, we need to rewrite the original equation 2x + 4y = 6 in slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
By rearranging the equation, we get y = -0.5x + 1.5.
Since the new line is parallel to the original line, it will have the same slope.
Therefore, the equation of the line parallel to 2x + 4y = 6 and passing through the point (6, 4) is y = -0.5x + 7.
