The people of Bridgetown wanted to build a bridge across a nearby river. Since they were poor swimmers, their master Trigonomos agreed to measure the width of the river without actually crossing it. Trigonomos spotted a tree across the river and marked the spot directly across from it. Then he walked to another point 15 meters down the river and found that the angle between his side of the river and the line connecting him to the tree was 76?, degree . What is the width of the river?

The compass was used to make the crossing arcs at point E and point B is labeled, so the next step would be :

A. Use a straight edge to draw a line through points B and E.

Option: A is the correct answer.

A.   Use a straightedge to draw a line through points B and E.

Perpendicular bisector--

It is a line that is perpendicular to the given line and the point where it intersects the given line segment is the mid-point of the line i.e. the perpendicular line bisects the line segment into  two equal parts.

The answer would be 31 inches long and 12 inches wide because you would subtract 36 - 5 and 24 - 12

Answer:

The sum of the first 53 terms of the sequence is 3286

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the arithmetic sequence

- There is a constant difference between each two consecutive numbers

Ex:

# 2  ,  5  ,  8  ,  11  ,  ……………………….

# 5  ,  10  ,  15  ,  20  ,  …………………………

# 12  ,  10  ,  8  ,  6  ,  ……………………………

* General term (nth term) of an Arithmetic Progression:

- U1 = a  ,  U2  = a + d  ,  U3  = a + 2d  ,  U4 = a + 3d  ,  U5 = a + 4d

- Un = a + (n – 1)d, where a is the first term , d is the difference

  between each two consecutive terms and n is the position of

  the term in the sequence

* Sum of an Arithmetic Progression:

  is calculate from  Sn = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]

* Lets solve the problem

- The sequence is 140 , 137 , 134 , 131 , .........

∵ 137 - 140 = -3 and 134 - 137 = -3

∴ The sequence is arithmetic

- The first term a = 140

- The common difference d = -3

- n = 53

∵ Sn = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]

∴ S53 = 53/2[2 × 140 + (53 - 1)(-3)]

∴ S53 = 53/2[280 + 52(-3) = 53/2[280 + -156] = 53/2[124]

∴ S53 = 3286

* The sum of the first 53 terms of the sequence is 3286

Answer:

S =3,286

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following sequence and we are to find the sum of the first 53 terms of this sequence:

[tex]140, 137, 134, 131, ...[/tex]

Finding the common difference [tex]d[/tex] = [tex]137-140[/tex] = [tex]-3[/tex]

[tex]a_1=140[/tex]

[tex]a_n=?[/tex]

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

[tex] a_n = 140 + (53 - 1 ) -3 [/tex]

[tex] a _ n = -16 [/tex]

Finding the sum using the formula [tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n)[/tex].

[tex]S_n = \frac{53}{2}(140+(-16))[/tex]

Answer:

The graph is symmetric about the x-axis only

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the limacon curve

- Equations of the form:

# r = a + b sin θ

# r = a – b sin θ

# r = a + b cos θ

# r = a – b cos θ  

All will produce limacons.    

* Lets examine what happens for various values of a and b.  

- When the value of a is less than the value of b, the graph is  

 a limacon with and inner loop.

- When the value of a is greater than the value of b, the graph is

 a dimpled limacon.

- When the value of a is greater than or equal to the value of 2b,  

 the graph is a convex limacon.

- When the value of a equals the value of b, the graph is a special  

 case of the limacon.  It is called a cardioid.

* Notice that, in each of the graphs of the liamcons, changing

 from sine to cosine does not affect the shape of the graph just its  

 orientation.  

- Equations using sine will be symmetric to the vertical axis  

- Equations using cosine are symmetric to the horizontal axis.  

∵ r = -2 + 3 cos Ф

- from the notes up the equation of cosine is symmetric to

 the horizontal axis

∴ The graph is symmetric about the x-axis only

Answer:

Option D) multiply y by 4 in the first equation and subtract the second equation

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

2x+y=-10 ----> first equation

3x+4y=-20 ---> second equation

Verify each case

case A) multiply the first equation by 4 and subtract the second equation

so

(2x+y)*4=-10*4 ------> 8x+4y=-40

[8x+4y=-40]-[3x+4y=-20] -----> 5x=-20 -----> x=-4

This step is correct

case B) multiply the first equation by -4 and add the second equation

so

(2x+y)*-4=-10*-4 ------> -8x-4y=40

[-8x-4y=40]+[3x+4y=-20] ----->-5x=20 -----> x=-4

This step is correct

case C)  add 8 times the first equation and −2 times the second equation

so

(2x+y)*8=-10*8 ------> 16x+8y=-80

(3x+4y)*-2=-20*-2 ----> -6x-8y=40

[16x+8y=-80]+[-6x-8y=40] ----->10x=-40 -----> x=-4

This step is correct

case D) multiply y by 4 in the first equation and subtract the second equation

so

2x+4y=-10

[2x+4y=-10]-[3x+4y=-20] -----> -x=-10+20 -----> x=-10

This step is incorrect

Answer:

Choice C: approximately 121 green beans will be 13 centimeters or shorter.

Step-by-step explanation:

What's the probability that a green bean from this sale is shorter than 13 centimeters?

Let the length of a green bean be [tex]X[/tex] centimeters.

[tex]X[/tex] follows a normal distribution with

In other words,

[tex]X\sim \text{N}(11.2, 2.1^{2})[/tex],

and the probability in question is [tex]X \le 13[/tex].

Z-score table approach:

Find the z-score of this measurement:

[tex]\displaystyle z= \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} = \frac{13-11.2}{2.1} = 0.857143[/tex]. Closest to 0.86.

Look up the z-score in a table. Keep in mind that entries on a typical z-score table gives the probability of the left tail, which is the chance that [tex]Z[/tex] will be less than or equal to the z-score in question. (In case the question is asking for the probability that [tex]Z[/tex] is greater than the z-score, subtract the value from table from 1.)

[tex]P(X\le 13) = P(Z \le 0.857143) \approx 0.8051[/tex].

"Technology" Approach

Depending on the manufacturer, the steps generally include:

For example, on a Texas Instruments TI-84, evaluating [tex]\text{normalcdf})(-1\text{E}99,\;13,\;11.2,\;2.1 )[/tex] gives [tex]0.804317[/tex].

As a result,

[tex]P(X\le 13) = 0.804317[/tex].

Number of green beans that are shorter than 13 centimeters:

Assume that the length of green beans for sale are independent of each other. The probability that each green bean is shorter than 13 centimeters is constant. As a result, the number of green beans out of 150 that are shorter than 13 centimeters follow a binomial distribution.

Let [tex]Y[/tex] be the number of green beans out of this 150 that are shorter than 13 centimeters. [tex]Y\sim\text{B}(150,0.804317)[/tex].

The expected value of a binomial random variable is the product of the number of trials and the probability of success on each trial. In other words,

[tex]E(Y) = n\cdot p = 150 \times 0.804317 = 120.648\approx 121[/tex]

The expected number of green beans out of this 150 that are shorter than 13 centimeters will thus be approximately 121.

Answer:

two solutions x = 1 and x = - 8/3 x

Step-by-step explanation:

These are two questions and two answers:

Question 1:

A quadratic equation is shown below: 3x^2 − 15x + 20 = 0 Part A: Describe the solution(s) to the equation by just determining the radicand. Show your work.

Answer: The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.

Explanation:

1) With radicand the statement means the disciminant of the quadratic function.

2) The discriminant is: b² - 4ac, where a, b, and c are the coefficients of the quadratic equation: ax² + bx + c

3) Then, for 3x² - 15x + 20, a = 3, b = - 15, and c = 20

and the discriminant (radicand) is: (-15)² - 4(3)(20) = 225 - 240 = - 15.

4) The negative value of the radicand means that the equation does not have real solutions.

Question 2:

Part B: Solve 3x^2 + 5x − 8 = 0 by using an appropriate method. Show the steps of your work, and explain why you chose the method used.

Answer: two solutions x = 1 and x = - 8/3x

Explanation:

1) I choose factoring (you may use the quadratic formula if you prefer)

2) Factoring

Given: 3x² + 5x − 8 = 0

Make 5x = 8x - 3x: 3x² + 8x - 3x - 8 = 0

Group: (3x² - 3x) + (8x - 8) = 0

Common factors for each group: 3x(x -1) + 8(x - 1) = 0

Coomon factor x - 1: (x - 1) (3x + 8) = 0

The two solutions are for each factor equal to zero:

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

3x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = -8/3

Those are the two solutions. x = 1 and x = - 8/3

The number that is impossible to divide by is 0, and your original number (X) cannot be 0 either. The possible values for your number are 11 and 22, and the corresponding numbers you divided it by are 1 and 2.

Let's assume the number you thought of is X, and the number you divided it by is Y. Based on the given information, we have the following equation:

X / Y = 11

To find the possible values for X and Y, we need to consider the factors of 11, which are 1 and 11. These factors provide us with potential pairs of X and Y:

X = 11 and Y = 1: When dividing 11 by 1, the result is indeed 11.

X = 22 and Y = 2: Dividing 22 by 2 gives us 11 as well.

So, the possible values for your number (X) are 11 and 22, and the corresponding numbers you divided it by (Y) are 1 and 2.

Now, let's discuss the numbers that are impossible to divide by or cannot be your original number. Any number divided by zero is undefined in mathematics. Hence, dividing by zero is not possible in this scenario. Therefore, the number 0 is impossible to divide by.

Additionally, your original number (X) cannot be 0. If X were 0, the equation would be:

0 / Y = 11

But any number divided by 11 is not equal to 0, which means X cannot be 0.

x = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The volume of a cube with a side length of 1 foot is 1 cubic foot, or 1728 cubic inches. So, 1 cubic foot is equal to 1728 cubic inches. The ratios of 1 cubic inch to 1/1728 cubic foot and 1 cubic foot to 1728 cubic inches can be used to convert between cubic inches and cubic feet.

When dealing with volumes, it's crucial to understand the relationship between cubic feet and cubic inches. Since 1 foot is equivalent to 12 inches, 1 cubic foot contains 12 × 12 × 12 = 1728 cubic inches. This conversion factor arises because volume is a measure of three-dimensional space, so each dimension is multiplied by itself three times.

To convert between cubic feet and cubic inches, you can use the conversion factor: 1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches. This means that to convert cubic feet to cubic inches, you multiply the volume in cubic feet by 1728, and to convert cubic inches to cubic feet, you divide the volume in cubic inches by 1728.

Understanding this relationship allows for easy conversion between the two units, whether you're dealing with measurements in feet or inches.

The probable question may be:

The volume of a cube with a side length of 1 foot is __ cubic foot, or __ cubic inches. So, 1 cubic foot is equal to __ cubic inches. The ratios of __ cubic inches to __ cublc foot and __ cubic foot to __ cubic inches can be used to convert between cubic inches and cubic feet.

Answer:

3.  x = 4, NOT extraneous

4. x=12, extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Solve for x, √(2x +1) = 3 and identify if it's an extraneous solution or not.

Since the square root is already isolated on its side, the first step is to put both sides to their square value to get rid of the square root.  We then get:

2x + 1 = 9  =>   2x = 8   =>   x = 4

To see if x = 4 is an extraneous solution, we enter it in the original equation and see if it works:

√(2x +1) = √(2 * 4 +1)  = √9 = 3

3  equals 3... so it's NOT an extraneous solution

4. Solve for x, -4√(x-3) = 12 and identify if it's an extraneous solution or not.

This time the square root isn't alone on its side yet... so we have to isolate it, by dividing each side by -4:

-4√(x-3) = 12 becomes √(x-3) = -3

Then we raise each side to their square value to get rid of the square root:

x - 3 = 9  which becomes x = 12

To see if x = 12 is an extraneous solution, we enter it in the original equation and see if it works:

-4√(x-3) = -4√(12-3) = -4√(9) = -4 (3) = -12

-12 does not equal 12... so it's an extraneous solution
