If one side of a regular pentagon is represented by 3x + 1 , what is the perimeter of the pentagon?

Answers

Answer:

5(3x+1) or 15x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular pentagon has 5 sides of equal length. The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of those sides. We can use multiplication to find the sum of 5 of the same value:

 P = 5(3x +1)

Perhaps you want it expanded. Using the distributive property, we multiply each term in parentheses by 5:

 P = 15x + 5

Parralel lines cut by a transversal coloring activity. Please give explanation. Will give brainiest.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation: Do You Want Me To Find All The Values ?

Parallel lines intersected by a common transversal form 8 angles

The required values of y and x are;

5. y = 42°6. y = 29.5°7. y = 9°8. y = 14°9. y = 31°10. x = 20°11. x = 13°12. y = 39°

The reasons why the above values are correct are given as follows:

Given the lines are parallel lines cut by a common transversal, we have;

Angles with measure (2·y - 1)° and (9·x - 38)° are same side interior angles

Angles with measure (4·x + 23)° and (2·y - 1)° are alternate interior angles

Which gives;

(2·y - 1)°+ (9·x - 38)° = 180°...(1)

(4·x + 23)° = (2·y - 1)°...(2)

From equation (1), we get;

y = 109.5 - 4.5·x

From equation (2), we get;

y = 2·x + 12

The common solution is given by; 109.5 - 4.5·x = 2·x + 12

From 109.5 - 4.5·x = 2·x + 12, we get;

x = 15,  

y = 42°

6) (9·x + 42)° and 15·x° are vertical angles, and therefore are equal

(9·x + 42)° = 15·x°

∴ x = 7

(4·y - 13)° and (9·x + 42)° are supplementary, therefore

(4·y - 13)° = (9·x + 42)°, which gives;

(4·y - 13)° = (9×7 + 42)° = 105°

y = 29.5°

7) (3x + 11) + (x + 21) = 180

∴ x = 37

(14·y - 4)° = 3x + 11 = 3 × 37 + 11 = 122°

y = 9°

8) (13·x - 33) = 10·x

∴ x = 11

10·x + 5·y = 180

10 × 11 + 5·y = 180

[tex]y = \dfrac{70^{\circ}}{5} = 14^{\circ}[/tex]

y = 14°

9) (27·x + 4) + (8·x + 1) = 180

∴ x = 5

y + 10 = 8·x + 1 = 8 × 5 + 1 = 41

y = 41 - 10 = 31

y = 31°

10) 16·x - 4 = 9·x - 6 + 58 = 9·x + 52

7·x = 56

x = 8

11) (6·x - 58)° + (x + 8)° = 90°

7·x - 50 = 90

7·x = 90 + 50 = 140

[tex]x = \dfrac{140}{7} = 20[/tex]

x = 20°

12) 7·x - 7 = 3·x + 45°

4·x = 52

[tex]x = \dfrac{52}{4} = 13[/tex]

x = 13°

(3·x + 45)° + 63° + (y - 6)° = 180°

(3×13 + 45)° + 63° + (y - 6)° = 180°

147 + (y - 6)° = 180°

y = 39°

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is a parabola, that opens up downwards,  and the point from which Sarah throws the ball is 5 feet off the ground.  so set the height to zero ( when the ball reaches the ground )  and solve for t

0 = -16[tex]t^{2}[/tex] + 18t + 5

use quadratic equation :)

-b +- sqrt([tex]b^{2}[/tex] - 4ac) / 2a

-18 +- sqrt[ [tex]18^{2}[/tex] - 4 (-16)(5) ] / 2(-16)

-18 +- sqrt[324 +320 ] / -32

-18 +- sqrt[644] / -32

-18 +- 25.377155 / -32

do the positive choice :

-18 + 25.377155 / -32

7.377155  / -32

-0.2305  ( so this answer would be where the ball would hit the ground if the arc extended down to the ground behind where Sarah throws the ball from. so this answer doesn't count in our domain. Because it's before Sarah throws the ball)

do the negative choice:

-18 - 25.377155 / -32

1.355536  ( this answer looks good, about 1.35 seconds for the ball to fly , this was more of a toss than a throw. )

A cylinder with radius 6 cm and height h cm has the same volume as a sphere with radius 4.5cm
Find the value of h.
(The volume, V, of a sphere with radius r is V=4/3pie r^3)

Answers

Answer:

h = 4.22 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, we have the volume of a cylinder as;

V = pie * r^2 * h

We have it that the radius is 6 cm

V = pie * 6^2 * h

for the sphere, we have it that;

V = 4/3 * pie * r^3

V = 4/3 * pie * 4.5^3

We can proceed to equate both volumes;

pie * 6^2 * h = 5/3 * pie * 4.5^3

pie on both sides cancel out

6^2h = 5/3 * 4.5^3

36h = 151.875

h = 151.875/36

h = 4.22 cm

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since RS || VU   ( parallel to )   then the angle V is equal to ∠ VRS , also we are given that ∠VRT = 71°  so subtract  ∠VRT from ∠VRS

103° - 71° = 32°

so ∠TRS = 32°

next find ∠U,  we know that ∠U + ∠VRT= 180°  ( b/c they are supplementary )

we are also told that  ∠VRT = 71°

∠U = 180 - 71

∠U = 109°

Since RS || VU (parallel to) then the angle V is equal to VRS, also we are given that VRT = 71°

So subtract VRT from VRS,

103° -71° = 32°

So, TRS = 32°

next find U, we know that ZU + ZVRT= 180° (b/c they are supplementary)

We are also told that <VRT = 71"

U = 180° - 71°

U = 109° is the answer.

5. Find dy/dx of
of the following
the following functions
y²= 4ax

Answers

Answer:

A general rule for functions of the general form:

y = A*x^n

is:

dy/dx =  n*A*x^(n - 1)

Then, for the function:

y^2 = 4*a*x

Then we can rewrite this as:

y = (4*a*x)^(1/2) = √(4*a)*x^(1/2)

Then we have:

A = √(4*a)

n = 1/2

Now we can use the above rule to get

dy/dx = (1/2)*√(4*a)*x^(1/2 - 1)

dy/dx = (1/2)*√(4*a)*x^(-1/2)

dy/dx = (1/2)*√(4*a/x)

dy/dx = √(1/4)*√(4*a/x)

dy/dx = √( (1/4)*4*a/x)

dy/dx = √(a/x)

A picture that measures 7 inches
by 7 inches is being framed.
The area of the picture with
frame is 81 square inches.
What is the width of the frame?

Answers

Answer:

The width of the frame is 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The given dimensions of the picture = 7 inches by 7 inches

The area of the picture, A₁ = 7 in. × 7 in. = 49 in.²

The area of the given picture and the frame, A₂ = 81 square inches

Let 'w' represent the width of the frame and whereby the picture is a square, we have;

The area of the picture with the frame, A₂ = 81 in.² = (7 + w) × (7 + w)

A₂ = 81 = (7 + w) × (7 + w) = 49 + 14·w + w²

49 + 14·w + w² - 81 = 0

w² + 14·w - 32 = 0

(x + 16)·(x - 2) = 0

∴ x = -16 or x = 2

Given that 'x' is a natural number, we have;

The width of the frame, x = 2 inches.

A window washer cleaned 38 windows in 2 hours. At this rate, how many windows did he clean in 7 hours?
plz help

Answers

Answer:

133 windows in 7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

38 divided by 2 and you get 19

19 x 7 = 133

Answer:

133 windows

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you would want to find how many windows he can clean in 1 hour.

You know that 38 windows = 2 hours.

To do this, divide both sides by 2 (to get 1 hour). You will get 19 windows = 1 hour.

Now to find 7 hours, multiply both sides of 19 windows = 1 hour by 7 (to get 7 hours). You will get 133 windows cleaned in 7 hours.
