There is a point $A$ with positive coordinates such that the sum of the coordinates of $A$ is $14$. If the $x$-coordinate of $A$ is $a$, then point $P$ is at $(3a, a^2+13a-11)$. If the slope of a line passing through $A$ and $P$ is $7$, find $a$.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  A = (a, 14-a)

  P = (3a, a^2 +13a -11)

  the slope of AP is 7

  a > 0

Find:

  a

Solution:

The slope of AP is ...

  m = (Py -Ay)/(Px -Ax)

  7 = (a^2 +13a -11 -(14 -a))/(3a -a)

  14a = a^2 +14a -25

  25 = a^2

  a = √25 = 5 . . . . . the positive solution

The value of 'a' is 5.

_____

Check

The point A is (a, 14-a) = (5, 9).

The point P is (3a, a^2 +13a -11) = (15, 79)

The slope of AP is (79 -9)/(15 -5) = 70/10 = 7.

Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour. She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minutes. If the river flows at 5 km/hr, how fast can Kelli swim in still water?

Answers

Answer:

6.11km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed that Kelli swims be represented by Y

Speed of the river = 5km/hr

Distance = Speed × Time

Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour

Swimming upstream takes a negative sign, hence:

1 hour ×( Y - 5) = Distance

Distance = Y - 5

She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minutes

Downstream takes a positive sign

Converting 6 minutes to hour =

60 minutes = 1 hour

6 minutes =

Cross Multiply

6/60 = 1/10 hour

Hence, Distance =

1/10 × (Y + 5)

= Y/10 + 1/2

Equating both equations we have:

Y - 5 = Y/10 + 1/2

Collect like terms

Y - Y/10 = 5 + 1/2

9Y/10 = 5 1/2

9Y/ 10 = 11/2

Cross Multiply

9Y × 2 = 10 × 11

18Y = 110

Y = 110/18

Y = 6.1111111111 km/hr

Therefore, Kelli's can swim as fast as 6.11km/hr still in the water.

PT.1     Kelli swam upstream for some distance in one hour. She then swam downstream the same river for the same distance in only 6 minutes. If the river flows at 5 km/hr, how fast can Kelli swim in still water?

Choose the most logical value for the variable to represent.

Let x = Kelli's swimming speed in still water

PT.2    Which expression represents the distance Kelli traveled upstream?

1(x – 5)

PT.3     Which expression represents the distance Kelli traveled downstream?

0.1(x + 5)

PT.4     Solve the equation x – 5 = 0.1(x + 5) for x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.  Kelli can swim about 6.11  km/hour.

You see Bonnie rock climbing El Capitan. On your telescope is a clinometer. The angle
of elevation is 20 degrees. You know you are standing 950 feet away from El Capitan.
How high up is Bonnie?

Answers

Answer:

≈ 345.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a right triangle formed by Bonnie's height (h) the ground and the angle of elevation.

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan20° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{h}{950}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 950 )

950 × tan20° = h , thus

h ≈ 345.8 ft ( to 1 dec. place )

I NEED YOUR HELP PLS

Answers

Answer:

For question 1 you can try dividing each of the value

For instance, you can divide 9 by 25 and see if you get a nice number

e.g. 1/8=0.125, numbers like these

For the second question, you can find the fraction by dividing 1000 starting with the decimal points

e.g 0.650, you would be plotting 650/1000 and you would simplify the fraction to the lowest value any value above the decimal point you can multiply by the denominator and add the nominator value to get your final answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Write the denominator in its prime factors. If the prime factorization of the denominator of a fraction has only factors of 2 and factors of 5, the decimal expression terminates.  If there is any prime factor in the denominator other than 2 or 5, then the decimal expression repeats.

example: 9/25

25 = 5*5, so it will be terminating

example: 7/12

12 = 3*2*2, which contains a 3, so it will be repeating.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=30

x<13

What + 13 is 30?

17. So if x+y=30. Because x will be less than 13, y must make up the differnce by being greater than 17.

The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Which equation can be used to find the side lengths if the longest side measures 6.2 cm?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] 9.3 + b = 14.5 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Longest side of ∆ = 2a = 6.2 cm

If the shortest side is, a, and we are told that the longest side is twice the shortest side, therefore, length of shortest side is

The sum of the 3 sides = perimeter = 14.5 cm

Thus,

[tex] a + 2a + b = 14.5 cm [/tex]

Plug in the values of a and b

[tex] 3.1 + 6.2 + b = 14.5 [/tex]

The equation that can be used to find the side lengths is [tex] 9.3 + b = 14.5 [/tex]

8y-2d=0 5y+4d=26 1/4

Answers

Answer:

y = 1

d = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

8y - 2d = 0 ---------------(I)

5y + 4d = 26 1/4

5y + 4d =  105/4  ------------------(II)

(I)*2      16y  - 4d = 0

(II)          5y + 4d = 105/4      {add (I) &(II)}

             21y        = 105/4

[tex]y = \frac{105}{5*21}\\\\y=\frac{105}{105}\\\\y = 1[/tex]

Substitute y =1 in equation (I)

8*1 - 2d = 0

8 - 2d = 0

   -2d = -8

      d = -8/-2

d = 4

Answer:

  (y, d) = (1.25, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add twice the first equation to the second.

  2(8y -2d) +(5y +4d) = 2(0) +26 1/4

  21y = 26 1/4

  y = (105/4)/21 = 105/84 = 5/4
