-15 POINTS PLS HURRY- Write the ratio as a fraction in simplest form, with whole numbers in the numerator and denominator. 4.5 cm to 4 cm

Answers

Answer 1

Hi there! :)

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\frac{9cm}{8cm}}[/tex]

We can disregard the units temporarily to create a ratio for 4.5 to 4:

4.5 is not a whole number- we can convert this number in the ratio to a whole number by multiplying both numbers by 2:

2 · (4.5 : 4) = 9 : 8

Express as a fraction:

[tex]9cm : 8cm = \frac{9cm}{8cm}[/tex]

Answer 2
The answer is 9cm over 8cm

Explain how to solve 5x2-3x = 25 by completing the square. What are the solutions?

Answers

Answer:

x= 3 +√509/10

Or

x= 3 - √509/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

5x2-3x = 25

Using completing the square method of solving quadratic equation

Step 1: Factor out the coefficient of the x^2 term.

5(x^2 - 3x/5) = 25

Step 2: Add a number that would complete the square inside the parenthesis and also add this to the other side of the equation.

Take (1/2) of (3/5)

1/2 × 3/5

= 3/10

Square 3/10

We have, 9/100

We have,

5(x^2 - 3x/5 + 9/100) = 25 + 9/100

Step 3: Simplify

x^2 - (3/5)x + 9/100 = 25 + 9/100

5(x^2 - 3x/5 + 9/100) = 5 + 9/20

Step 4:

factor the right side

(x - 3/10)^2 = 509/100

Take both roots

√ (x - 3/10)^2 = √509/100

x - 3/10 = ±√ [509/100]

x = [ 3 ±√509 ] / 10

x= 3+√509/10

Or

x= 3 - √509/10

You're going to multiply 5 times 2
= 10
then it will be 10-3x=25
move the 10 to the other side
which will be
-3x=25-10 note when moving it to the other side the signs change meaning it'll be negative
25-10=15
-3x =15
then ur going to divide -3 divided by -3 cancelled each other out and 15divided by-3 which gives u
-5
your answer will be
x= -5

Answer:

132

Step-by-step explanation:

If US bisects the angle then

BUS = SUL

2x+10 = 3x-18

Subtract 2x from each side

2x+10 -2x = 3x-18-2x

10 = x-18

Add 18 to each side

10+18 =x

28 =x

We want to find BUL

BUL = BUS + SUL

      2x+10 + 3x-18

     5x-8

    5*28 -8

   140-8

   132

Answer:

m<BUL=132

Step-by-step explanation:

Since US bisects <BUL, we know that <BUS ≅ <SUL

This is based on the angle bisector definition.

Hence, we can set up an equation to solve for x.

<BUS≅<SUL

2x+10=3x-18

Subtract 10 from both sides

2x+10-10=3x-18-10

2x=3x-28

Subtract 3x from both sides

2x-3x=3x-3x-28

-x=-28

Divide both sides by -1

x=28

m<BUL is the sum of m<BUS and m<SUL

m<BUL=m<BUS+m<SUL

m<BUS=2x+10

m<SUL=3x-18

Plug it in

m<BUL=2x+10+3x-18

Combine like terms

m<BUL=5x-8

Plug in 28 for x

m<BUL=5(28)-8

m<BUL=140-8

m<BUL=132

What are the solutions of the equation x4 – 5x2 – 14 = 0? Use factoring to solve.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=\pm 7\text{ or } x=\pm i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation:

[tex]x^4-5x^2-14=0[/tex]

Since this is in quadratic form, we can consider using u-substitution. Thus, we will let:

[tex]u=x^2[/tex]

Then by substitution:

[tex]u^2-5x-14=0[/tex]

Now we can solve normally. Factor:

[tex](u-7)(u+2)=0[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]u=7\text{ or } u=-2[/tex]

Back-substitute:

[tex]x^2=7\text{ and } x^2=-2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides. Since we are taking an even-root, we will need to add plus-minus:

[tex]x=\pm 7\text{ and }x=\sqrt{-2}[/tex]

Therefore, our solutions are:

[tex]x=\pm7\text{ and } x=\pm i\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Jen go to the skate park every other day Terry go to skate park every third date Carlos goes to the skate park only on Mondays and Tuesdays today is Monday, June 3 and all the kids are at the skate park on what day would they all be at the skate park again

Answers

Answer: Tuesday, July 9 (correct me if I'm wrong)

Step-by-step explanation:

Jen goes every other day, so she goes every odd day.

Terry goes every third day, so Jen and Terry go together every six days.

Six days later is Sunday June 9, then Saturday June 15, then Friday Jun 21, then Thursday June 27, then Wednesday July 3.

Carlos only comes Mondays and Tuesday, so the next six days would be Tuesday July 9.

All the kids would be at the park on Tuesday. June 9th. Jen would be there the 5th, 7th, and 9th and terry would be there the 6th & 9th. The ninth would be a Tuesday so Carlos would be there too. So everyone would be there on Tuesday

Choose the equation of the line in the form Ax + By = C.

Answers

Answer:

-9x + y = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

We can put the equation into y = mx + b form first, then change it to Ax + By = C

First, we can find the slope by doing rise/run (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(-2 - 7) / (-5 + 4)

-9/-1 = 9

We can put this into the equation y = mx + b, along with another point, to find b:

y = mx + b

7 = 9(-4) + b

7 = -36 + b

43 = b

Now, we know the equation will be y = 9x + 43, and we can rearrange this:

Subtract 9x from both sides:

-9x + y = 43 will be the equation of the line

The answer to the question is -9 + y = 43

Find the first, fourth, and eighth terms of the sequence. A(n) = −5 ∙ 2x − 1

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule for the sequence is

[tex]A(n) = 5. {2}^{x - 1} [/tex]

where x is the number of terms

For the first term

x = 1

That's

[tex]A(1) = 5. {2}^{1 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]A(1) = 5. {2}^{0} [/tex]

A(1) = 5(1)

A(1) = 5

For the fourth term

x = 4

[tex]A(4) = 5. {2}^{4 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]A(4) = 5. {2}^{3} [/tex]

A(4) = 5(8)

A(4) = 40

For the eighth term

x = 8

[tex]A(8) = 5. {2}^{8 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]A(8 ) = 5. {2}^{7} [/tex]

A(8) = 5(128)

A(8) = 640

Hope this helps you

Answer:

The first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term of the sequence would be...

A(1) = -5 * 2^(1 - 1)

= -5 * 2^0

= -5 * 1

= -5

The fourth would be...

A(4) = -5 * 2^(4 - 1)

= -5 * 2^3

= -5 * 8

= -40

The eighth would be...

A(8) = -5 * 2^(8 - 1)

= -5 * 2^7

= -5 * 128

= -640

So, the correct answer is the first option.

Answer:

You must subtract 3 from both sides.

[tex]7x+3-3<-4-3\\[/tex]

After subtracting, we got

[tex]7x<-7[/tex]

Let's make it into a fraction and divide

[tex]\frac{7x}{7}<\frac{-7}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\bf 2x-3\geq 9[/tex]

You must add 3 to both sides.

[tex]2x-3+3\geq 9+3[/tex]

After adding, we got

[tex]2x\geq 12[/tex]

Let's make it into a fraction and divide

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} \geq \frac{12}{2}[/tex]

Now we got the answer

[tex]x\geq 6[/tex]

What is the equation that is perpendicular to the line y=2x-3 and passes through the point (-6,5)? Show all of your work.

Answers

Answer: y=(-1/2)x+5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2x+3

This equation is in the slope-intercept form y=mx+b

m is the slope.

b is the y-intercept, the value of y when x=0.

m=2

The slope of the perpendicular line is -1/2.

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

(y-4)=(-1/2)(x-3)

y-4=(-1/2)x+1.5

add 4 to both sides

4+y-4=(-1/2)x+1.5+4

y=(-1/2)x+5.5

Answer:

y = -1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal (opposite sign, and reciprocal)

The line's slope is 2, so the perpendicular line's slope will be -1/2.

Now, we know part of the equation: y = -1/2x + b

Plug in the point given:

5 = -1/2(-6) + b

5 = 3 + b

2 = b

Now, we can plug in b into the equation:

y = -1/2x + 2
