The Golden Ratio appears in the design of the Greek Parthenon because the width and height of the façade are related by the equation [tex]\frac{W+H}{W} = \frac{W}{H}[/tex]. If the height of a model of the Parthenon is 16 inches, what is its width? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

25.9 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Width and height relation equation:

(W+H)/W= W/H

And also given,

H=16 in

We need to find the value of W

---------

Plug in the value of H, the equation becomes:

(W+16)/W=W/16

Cross- multiplication:

16(W+16)=W²W² - 16W - 256=0

Solving the quadratic equation:

W= (-b±√b²-4ac)/2aW= (16±√1280)/2W= −9.889  this root is discarded as negative valueW= 25.889 ≈ 25.9 in rounded to nearest tenth

Answer is  25.9 in

If two zeroes of a polynomial x3+5x2+7x+3 are -1 and-3 then find the third Zero

Answers

Answer:

Third zero is -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

consider the given polynomial is  

[tex]P(x)=x^3+5x^2+7x+3[/tex]

It is given that -1 and -3 are two zeroes, therefore (x+1) and (x+3) are two factors of given polynomial.

The given polynomial can be rewritten as

[tex]P(x)=x^3+x^2+4x^2+4x+3x+3[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=x^2(x+1)+4x(x+1)+3(x+1)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=(x+1)(x^2+4x+3)[/tex]

Now, splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]P(x)=(x+1)(x^2+3x+x+3)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=(x+1)(x(x+3)+1(x+3))[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=(x+1)(x+1)(x+3)[/tex]

[tex]P(x)=(x+1)^2(x+3)[/tex]

Here, power of (x+1) is 2. It means the multiplicity of zero -1 is 2.

So, three zeroes are -1, -1 and -3.

Therefore the third zero is -1.

One day, a person went to a horse racing area. Instead of counting the number of humans and horses, he counted 74 heads and 196 legs. How many humans and horses were there?

Answers

Answer:

Let humans be x and horses be y

Both have one head each,so x+y=74 (1)

Humans have 2 legs each and horses 4 legs each…… so 2x+4y=196 (2)

In first equation x+y=74 then y=74~x (3) ……… .By solving both equations we have as under… x+3y=122 x=122-3y (4)…. Now in equation 4 we put the value of y taken from equation 3 so it will be x=122~3(74-x)…. x=122-222+3x…………. bringing x on one side x-3x=122~222 therefore -2x=~100….. x=50… put the value of x in first equation… x+y=74… 50+y=74… y=74~50…..… y=24… Now it is concluded that Humans are 50 and Horses are 24.. Now you put the values of x & y in 1st and 2nd equation … you will get x+y=74.. 50+24=74………..2x+4y=196…2×50+4×24=196.. it is proved thru equation.

Find an equivalent system of equations for the following system: 3x + 3y = 0 −4x + 4y = −8 3x + 3y = 0 7x − y = 8 3x + 3y = 0 −7x − y = 8 3x + 3y = 0 −7x + 7y = 8 3x + 3y = 0 −4x + 7y = 8

Answers

Answer:

A.

3x + 3y = 0

7x − y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3x + 3y = 0

-4x + 4y = -8

Required

Find the equivalent

To solve for the equivalent we simply solve for x and y in the given equation.

Subtract 3x from both sides in 3x + 3y = 0

3x - 3x + 3y = 0 - 3x

3y = -3x

Multiply both sides by ⅓

⅓ * 3y = -3x * ⅓

y = -x

Substitute -x for y in -4x + 4y = -8

-4x + 4(-x) = -8

-4x -4x = -8

-8x = -8

Multiply both sides by -⅛

-⅛ * -8x = -⅛ * -8

x = 1

Recall that y = -x

y = -1

So, we have that x = 1 and y = -1

We'll substitute these values in the list of options;

A.

3x + 3y = 0

7x − y = 8

7(1) - -(1) = 8

7 + 1 = 8 ----- This is equivalent

B.

3x + 3y = 0

−7x − y = 8

-7(1) - (-1) = 8

-7 + 1 = 8

-6 ≠ 8 .... This is not an equivalent expression

C.

3x + 3y = 0

−7x + 7y = 8

-7(1) + 7(-1) = 8

-7 -7 = 8

-14 ≠ 8 .... This is also not an equivalent expression

D.

3x + 3y = 0

-4x + 7y = 8

-4(1) + 7(-1) = 8

-4 -7 = 8

-11 ≠ 8 -_- This is also not an equivalent expression

Answers

Answer:

y = (-1/2)x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line y = 2x - 6 has a slope of 2 and so any line perpendicular to it has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of 2:  -1/2.

If this perpendicular line passes through (0, -3), then the slope-intercept equation y = mx + b becomes -3 = (-1/2)(0) + b, or -3 = b, and the desired

We need to find a pair of lines that represents the equations with the solution (4, −1).

Since (4,-1) is the solution of the equations. It means (4,-1) is the intersection point of lines.

4 on x-coordinate means 4 units right.

 the number of red counters/ the total number of counters

b-14/18 or 7/9

 the number of counters that are not blue/ the total number of counters

good luck

In part a, we want to find the probability that Matt takes a red counter out of the bag.

To do this, we use the ratio for the probability of an event which is shown below.

P(event) = number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes

Since there are 6 red counters in the bag, the number of favorable outcomes is 6 and since there are 18 counters in all and it’s equally likely that we will choose any of the counters, the total number of outcomes is 18.

Therefore, the probability that Matt chooses a red counter is 6/18 which reduces to 1/3.

In part b, we start off with our ratio again for the probability of an event.

Number of favorable outcomes
/total number of outcomes

Since there are 14 counters in the bag that aren’t blue, the number of favorable outcomes is 14.

Since there are 18 cubes in all, the total number of outcomes is 18.

So we have 14/18.

This reduces to 7/9.

So the probability of choosing a counter that isn’t blue is 7/9.

3) The third angle in the top triangle is found by 180-90-35=55

Using this we can find the top angle of the bottom triangle by 180-60-55=65

Then we can find the bottom angle of the bottom triangle with 180-65-90=25

This means that x=180-25=155

Let X be the number of days employee can work. Then, according to the first statement, X <= 5 and according to the second statement, X >= 2

An inequality to represent the range of days an employee can work will be

Which of the following are identities?

Answers

Answer:

A. III only

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, an identity is one of the characteristics of algebraic expressions.

Given variable a and b in an algebraic expression, an identity is defined as an equality that remains the same no matter the values that we choose for either variable a or b.

Identity in mathematics makes it very easy to solve algebraic expressions. The two sides of an identity in an algebra can easily be exchanged for each other.

In the above question, we are given 3 Options.

I) 3(5 + 2x) = 15 + 6x

II) y = x + 3

III) (x² - y²) = (x + y) (x - y)

Option I) 3(5 + 2x) = 15 + 6x

Is showing distributive property in mathematics.

Distributive property is :

a(b + c) = ab + ac

Option I is not an identity , therefore it is wrong.

Option II) y = x + 3 is just an algebraic expression.

Only Option III is an identity. This is because it follows the rule of

(a² - b²) = (a + b) (a - b)

We can prove and confirm this be solving the algebraic expression

(x + y) (x - y)

We expand the bracket

x² - xy +xy - y²

x² - y²

Therefore, option A is the correct option.

Owners of a recreation area are filling a small pond with water. Let y represent the total amount of water in the pond (in liters).

Note that a change can be an increase or a decrease. For an increase, use a positive number. For a decrease, use a negative number. What is the change per minute in the amount of water in the pond? What was the starting amount of water in the pond?

Answers

Answer:

32400

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start by defining the numbers in the equation.

This  equation is in slope-intercept form meaning that it is y=mx+b or y = b+mx they are both the same

In slope-intercept form,

m = slope or rateand b = y-intercept

Th equation is y=400+32x so now we know

b=400and m=32

For the first question the change per minute is the rate so it is 32.

For the second question the starting amount is the same as the y-intercept so it is 400.
