A. 18 inches

B. [tex]18\sqrt{3}[/tex] inches

C. [tex]9\sqrt{3}[/tex] inches

D. 9 inches

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean triple for a 30-60-90 right triangle is (x, x√3, 2x).  The side across from the 30° angle is x, the side across from the 60° angle is x√3, and the side across from the right angle is 2x (which is also the hypotenuse).  If the side across from the 60° angle is given as 9√3, we can set that equal to the identity for that leg:

9√3 = x√3 and solve for x.  Divide both sides by the √3 to get that x = 9

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is option D. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

It a right triangle with angles 30°, 60 and 90° the n the sides are in the ratio,

Shorter leg : longer leg : hypotenuse = 1 : √3 : 2

To find the length of shorter leg

Here it is given that, longer length = 9√3

We have,

Shorter leg : longer leg : hypotenuse = 1 : √3 : 2 =  Shorter leg : 9√3: hypotenuse

Therefore shorter leg = 9√3/√3 = 9

Answer:

-7x(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Not sure exactly what you're doing with this, but I know you're not solving it for x because there's no " = " there so I am assuming you're simplifying it as much as possible.  I'm going with that.

First thing is to distribute through the parenthesis by multiplying 4x by 3x and then 4x by -7 to get:

[tex]12x^2-28x-19x^2[/tex]

Now combine like terms to get

The last thing you could do now is pull out what's common between each of those terms which is -7x.  When you do that, you're left with

Eric wants to make sure he keeps an average speed of 70 miles/hour while testing his car’s engine. He allows the car’s speed to vary a certain number of miles/hour which can be modeled by the inequality |x − 70| ≤ 4. Plot the range of speeds Eric would not drive at under the given conditions.

Answers

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Eric will drive between 70 -4 = 66 mph and 70+4 = 74 mph. He will not drive less than 66 or more than 74 mph.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, solutions to absolute value inequalities, as in this case, take two forms:

If | x | <a, then x<a or x> -a.

If | x |> a, then x> a or x <-a.

In this case, you have |x − 70| ≤ 4. So, you have two cases:

x − 70 ≤ 4 and x − 70 ≥ -4

Solving both equations:

x − 70 ≤ 4      

x ≤ 4 + 70

x≤ 74

and

x - 70 ≥ -4

x ≥ -4+70

x ≥ 66

It is convenient to graph both solutions, as shown in the attached image .

The intersection between both conditions is the solution to the inequality (that is, in the image it is shown as the interval painted by both colors). In this case, the solution is 66≤x≤74

This indicates that Eric can drive within this speed range.

The range of speeds Eric would not drive at under the given conditions is x≤66 and x≥74,  as shown in the other image.

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular tessellation involves repeated use of a single regular polygon to cover the plane.

A semiregular tessellation involves repeated use of two or more regular polygons (in the same order around each polygon vertex) to cover the plane.

The first and third diagrams do not involve regular polygons. The fourth involves only a single regular polygon. Hence the second diagram is the one of interest.

The required second diagram is a semiregular tessellation.

What is a polygon?

Polygon is defined as a geometric shape that is composed of 3 or more sides these sides are equal in length, and an equal measure of angle at the vertex.

Regular tessellation uses one regular polygon repeatedly to cover the plane, while semiregular tessellation involves two or more regular polygons used in the same order around each polygon vertex to cover the plane. The second diagram, which involves semiregular tessellation, is of interest. The first and third diagrams do not use regular polygons, and the fourth diagram only uses a single regular polygon.

9. Find the area of each figure to the nearest tenth 140,110,180,50 8,8,10

Answers

Answer:

18550 cm²88 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1. There are several ways the area can be divided up so that formulas for common figures can be used to find the areas of the pieces. In the attached figure, we have identified an overall rectangle ABXE and a trapezoid BXDC that is subtracted from it.

The area of the rectangle is the product of length and width:

  area ABXE = (180 cm)(140 cm) = 25,200 cm²

The area of a trapezoid is the product of its height (DX = 70 cm) and the average of its base lengths ((BX +DC)/2 = 95 cm).

  area BXDC = (70 cm)(95 cm) = 6650 cm²

Then the area of figure ABCDE is the difference of these areas:

  area ABCDE = area ABXE - area BXDC = (25,200 - 6,650) cm²

  area ABCDE = 18,550 cm²

__

2. In order to find the area of the figure, we need to know the length DE. That length is one leg of right triangle DEA, so we can use the Pythagorean theorem. That theorem tells us ...

  DE² + EA² = AD²

  DE² + (8 ft)² = (10 ft)² . . . . . substitute the given values

  DE² = 36 ft² . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 64 ft²

  DE = 6 ft . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root

Now, we can choose to add the area of triangle DEA to that of square ABCE, or we can treat the whole figure as a trapezoid with bases AB=8 ft and DC=14 ft. In the latter case, the average base length is ...

  (8 ft + 14 ft)/2 = 11 ft

and the area is the product of this and the 8 ft height:

  area ABCD = (11 ft)(8 ft) = 88 ft²

A company increases their rates from $98 a month to $101.92 a month. What is the percent of increase??

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

98*x = 101.92

x = 101.92/98 = 1.04

The % increase is 1.04%

Final answer:

The percent increase of the company's rates from $98 to $101.92 is 4%. It is calculated by dividing the increase in rates by the original rate and then multiplying by 100.

Explanation:

To calculate the percent increase for a company's rate change from $98 a month to $101.92 a month, we first find the difference in rates. The increase is $101.92 - $98 = $3.92. To find the percentage, we divide the increase by the original amount and multiply by 100. Therefore, the percent increase is ($3.92/$98)  imes 100.

Calculating this gives us a percent increase of approximately 4%. So, the company's rates have increased by 4 percent. The percentage change, or growth rate, indicates how significantly the rates have increased in comparison to the starting rate.

Because of the known similarity of the triangles, we know that

16      10

Cross-multiplying, we get 16x = 100, and thus x = 100/16 = 50/8 = 25/4

x = 25/4

For the given triangle the value of x is 25/4.

Hence the correct option is E.

The Pythagorean theorem states that,

For a right-angle triangle,

(Hypotenuse)²= (Perpendicular)² + (Base)²

Given that,

In ΔBAC

CB = 16

DB = x

AB = 10

Then CD = 16-x

Apply the Pythagorean theorem in ΔBAC,

Hypotenuse = CB

Perpendicular = AC

Base = AB

(Hypotenuse)²= (Perpendicular)² + (Base

(CB)²= (AC)² + (AB)²

(16)²= (AC)² + (10)²

(AC)² = 256 - 100

(AC)² = 156 ......(i)

Apply the Pythagorean theorem in ΔADB,

Hypotenuse = AB

Perpendicular = AD

Base = DB

Therefore,

(AB)²= (AD)² + (DB)²

(10)²= (AD)² + x²

(AD)²= 100 - x²   ......(ii)

Again apply the Pythagorean theorem in ΔADC,

Hypotenuse = AC

Perpendicular = AD

Base = CD

Therefore,

(AC)²= (AD)² + (CD)²

(AC)²= (100 - x²) + (16-x)²                          [ from (ii) ]

(AC)²= 100 - x² + 256 + x² - 32x              [Since (a-b)² = a² + b² -2ab ]

(AC)²= 356 - 32x  ....(iii)

Equating the equation (i) and (iii)

356 - 32x = 156

32x = 200

x = 200/32

x = 25/4

Hence, the value of x is 25/4.

Calculate the maximum number of kcalories Rick can consume per day to achieve a weight loss of one pound per week. Assume that his weight is 205 pounds and that his physical activity factor is "low active."

Answer:

2696 kilocalories

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

First we need to calculate Rick's Basal Metabolic Rate( BMR)

Weight in pounds = 205 pounds

Age = 19 years

Height in inches = 70 inches

The formula for calculating Basal Metabolic Rate for men =

BMR = 66.47 + ( 6.24 × weight in pounds ) + ( 12.7 × height in inches ) − ( 6.755 × age in years )

BMR = 66.47 + ( 6.24 × 205 ) + ( 12.7 × 70 ) − ( 6.755 × 19)

= 2247

STEP 2:

The next step is to calculate the maximum amount kilocalories per day Rick should consume

Formula is given as :

For a person with physical activity factor of a ' low Active'

Maximum amount of kilocalories to consume per day = Basal Metabolic rate × 1.2

= 2247 × 1.2

= 2696 Kilocalories (kcalories) per day

Similarly any factor if  f(x) is divided by some factor it is going to be stretch the graph away from the y axis and vice versa.

Here we can see that the translated graph g(x) is stretched away from the y axis with reference to the parent function f(x). Hence as per he rule discussed above, we get a preliminary information that the parent function f(x) is being divided by some factor.

now we are given that

[tex]f(x) = x^2[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = 3^2 = 9[/tex]

Where as

[tex]g(3) = 1[/tex]  {as given in the graph}

Hence

at x=3 , f(x) = 9 and g(x) = 1 , and also we have discussed above that f(x) is divided by some factor. Hence [tex]g(x)= \frac{1}{9}f(x)[/tex]

[tex]g(x)= \frac{1}{9} \times x^2[/tex]

The triangles are similar.


What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to do this. You could use the Pythagorean Theorem because you are given that the triangles are right angled triangles.

Method One

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 5

b = 12

c = ?

c^2 = 5^2 + 12^2

c^2 = 25 + 144

c^2 = 169

sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(169)

c = 13

x = 13

Method Two

You can do this problem with similar triangles.

48/12 = 52/x                    Cross multiply

48x = 12 * 52                   Combine the right  

48x = 624                        Divide by 48

48x/48 = 624/48              Do the division

x = 13
