7) Line Segment PR Is 5 Ft. Find The Length Of Line Segment PQ And QR. (Hint: Use The Segment Addition

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

PQ = 1 ft

QR = 4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

Segment PR has been divided into two parts by a point Q.

Length of segment PR = 5 feet

Length of segment PQ = (15x - 2) ft

Length of segment QR = (5x + 3) ft

Since, PR = PQ + QR

5 = (15x - 2) + (5x + 3)

5 = 20x + 1

20x = 4

x = [tex]\frac{4}{20}[/tex]

x = 0.2

PQ = 15x - 2

     = 15(0.2) - 2

     = 3 - 2

     = 1 ft

QR = 5x + 3

     = 5(0.2) + 3

     = 1 + 3

     = 4 ft

Write the equation g(x) of the transformation of the parent graph f(x) = |x| stretched horizontally by a factor of 3.

Answers

Answer:

g(x) = |1/3x|

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = |x|

y = f(Cx) 0 < C < 1 stretches it in the x-direction

g(x) = |1/3x|

We can start with: f(x) = |x|

0 < c < 1 means x-direction stretch

y = f(cx)

3 unit horizontal stretch

After: g(x) = |1/3x|

−15 = 5(3q − 10) − 5q

Answers

Answer:

q = 3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-15 = 5(3q - 10) - 5q

-15 = (5*3q + 5*-10) - 5q

-15 = 15q - 50 - 5q

-15 + 50 = 15q - 5q

35 = 10q

q = 35/10

q = 3.5

Check:

-15 = 5(3*3.5 - 10) - 5*3.5

-15 = 5(10.5 - 10) - 17.5

-15 = 5*0.5 - 17.5

-15 = 2.5 - 17.5

A fence for a rectangular garden with one side against an existing wall is constructed by using 60 feet of fencing. What is the maximum area that can be enclosed

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

A fence for a rectangular garden with one side against an existing wall is constructed by using 60 feet of fencing.

Perimeter of rectangle (3 sides)= 60 feet

Let 'x' be the width of the wall

[tex]Perimeter = 2(length)+2(width)\\60=2(length)+2x\\\\60-2x=2(length)\\\frac{60-2x}{2} =length\\Length =30-x[/tex]

Formula for the area of the rectangle is

[tex]Area=length \cdot width\\A=length(x)[/tex]

Replace the length we got using perimeter

[tex]A=(30-x)(x)\\A(x)= 30x-x^2[/tex]

To find out the maximum are we take derivative

[tex]A'(x)= 30-2x\\0=30-2x\\-30=-2x\\x=15[/tex]

find out second derivative to check whether x=15 is maximum

[tex]A''(x)=-2[/tex]

second derivative is negative

So, Maximum area at x=15

To find maximum area we plug in 15 for x in A(x)

[tex]A(x)=30x-x^2\\A(15)=30(15)-15^2\\A(15)=225[/tex]

So, maximum area is 225 square feet

Step-by-step explanation: Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

9x+10=2001−x

9x+10=2001+−x

9x+10=−x+2001

Step 2: Add x to both sides.

9x+10+x=−x+2001+x

10x+10=2001

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

10x+10−10=2001−10

10x=1991

Since 4+5 is in parentheses it should be done first.

Answer:

Addition

Step-by-step explanation:

This the answer because:

1) First, we have to know the Order of Operations

2) An easy way of remembering this is PEMDAS or GEMS

PEMDAS : Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction

GEMS : Grouping (Parenthesis), Exponents, Multiplication and Division (whichever one comes first from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (whichever one comes first from left to right)

3) In this expression, parenthesis would be first because that's what comes first in the order of operations

4) Inside the parenthesis is another expression where you need to add. Therefore, the answer is addition

What’s the answer for the problems 11-15 in the picture

Answers

Answer:

11.

A) EZ Pay Plan=0.15x

B) 40 to Go Plan=0.05x+40

12.

0.15x=0.05x+40

13.

x=400 minutes

14. The solution is the amount of minutes that it takes for both plans to cost the same amount. X has one solution, so it accounts for both equations.

15. EZ Pay Plan

Step-by-step explanation:

For 11, what you need to know is that the slope (coefficient of x) is the price per minute. 0.15 per minute and 0.05 per minute are charged, and therefore are the slope for those equations. The 40 on B is because it is the y intercept. No matter how long you use the object, you will always pay at least 40 dollars.

For 12, you have to find x for the minutes used.

For 13, if you do the process algebraically,

0.15x=0.05x+40  

0.10x=40     (subtracted 0.05x from both sides)

x=400       (divided 0.10x and 40 by 0.10)

For 14, (no explanation)

For 15, if you substitute 200 as x, you would see that the EZ Pay Plan would make you pay 30 dollars while the 40 To Go Plan would make you pay 10+40 dollars, which 30<50.

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of the first card starts at $65 and decreases by $3 for each of x periods. Its value is ...

  65 -3x

The value of the second card starts at $55 and decreases by $2.50 for each of x periods. Its value is ...

  55 -2.5x

The equation that can be used to find x that makes the values equal is ...

  65 -3x = 55 -2.5x

__

The solution can be found by adding 3x-55 to both sides of this equation.

  10 = 0.5x

Multiplying by 2 gives ...

  20 = x

After 20 30-day periods. the cards will have the same value.
