If y varies jointly with x and y =3 when x=2 and z=4 find y when x=8 and z=12

Answers

Answer:

y=10

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see, the order when x=2 and z=4, is y=x+1, z=y+1, therefore y was 3.

Then, you can find y when x=8 and z=12 by:

12-8=4 (the difference between z and x)

and then divide 4 by 2 (the number of intervals between x, y, and z)

then get 2 (as the difference between x and y.

The answer is 8+2=10.

The expression 14s(s - 1) can be used to find
the total number of cards created by the ninth
grade students. Based on the given information,
which of the following statements must be true?
Select all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

B. The variable s represents the number of students in each class.

C. The coefficient 14 represents the number of classes in the 9th grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number can be found by multiplying the number of the things with the number of people producing it. For example if 5 boys make 5  colored ropes the total number of ropes will be 5*5= 25.

In this question the combinations rule is used for variuos number of classes which are 14. Now we have to find the number of students which are s (s-1). Suppose s= 6 so the number of students would be 6(6-1) = 6(5) = 30

We will multiply the number of classes 14 with the number of students s(s-1) to get the total number of cards produced.

△MNO ~△DEF. Identify the perimeter and area of △MNO to the nearest tenth. PLEASE HELP!!!

Answers

Answer:

Option A: P ≈ 38.7 in, A ≈ 63.7 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that △MNO ~△DEF. This means that they are similar triangles.

We can solve for this using scale factor.

a) Perimeter of △MNO

The scale factor of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the perimeter of the triangles

Scale factor(k) = ratio of the sides of the triangles

In the diagram we are given

Side of △MNO = 6.7in

Side of △DEF = 9in

Perimeter of △MNO = X

Perimeter of △DEF = 52in

Scale factor (k) = 6.7/9

Hence,

6.7/ 9 = X/52

Cross Multiply

9X = 6.7 × 52

X = 6.7 × 52/9

X = 38.711111111 inches

To the nearest tenth, Perimeter of △MNO = 38.7 inches

b) Area of △MNO

The square of the scale factor of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of area of the triangles

Scale factor(k) = ratio of the sides of the triangles

In the diagram we are given

Side of △MNO = 6.7in

Side of △DEF = 9in

Area of △MNO = Y

Area of △DEF = 115in²

Scale factor (k) = 6.7/9

Hence,

(6.7/ 9)² = Y/115

6.7²/9² = Y / 115

Cross Multiply

9² × Y = 6.7² × 115

Y = 6.7²× 115 /9²

Y = 63.732716049 square inches

To the nearest tenth, Area of △MNO = 63.7 in²

Lewis Hamilton completed the first lap at the Monaco Grand-Prix with an average speed of 125 mi/h. His goal is to complete the first two laps with an average speed of 250 mi/h. How fast (in terms of average speed) should his second lap be?

Answers

Answer:

  infinitely fast

Step-by-step explanation:

To have double the average speed, he must complete the two laps in the same amount of time that he spent completing the first lap. That is, he must complete the second lap in zero time.

Hamilton's average speed for the second lap should be infinite. (He needs to finish it in zero time.)

2.35 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the shape into shapes you can calculate the area of: a rectangle with a semi-circle on top, minus a square.

1. Calculate the area of the rectangle. Formula for area of a rectangle is length · width

1 m · 2 m = 2 m²

2. Calculate the area of the semi-circle. Formula for a semi-circle is [tex]\frac{\pi r^{2} }{2}[/tex] (use 3.14 for π) (radius is equal to half the diameter)

3.14(0.5)² = 0.785

0.785 ÷ 2 = 0.3925 m²

3. Combine the total area

2 + 0.3925 = 2.3925

4. Calculate the area of the square that will not be painted. Formula for area of a square is s² (side · side)

0.2² = 0.04 m²

5. Subtract the area of the square from the total area

2.3925 - 0.04 = 2.3525

2.3525 rounds to 2.35 m²

Determine the measure of obtuse angle A. answers: A) 130° B) 122° C) 58° D) 7°

Answers

Answer:

B) 122 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the kite :- the 2 angles at the tangents are 90 degrees so we have:

9x - 5 + 14x + 24 + 90 + 90 = 360

9x - 5 + 14x + 24  = 180

23x + 19 = 180

23x = 161

x = 7

So the obtuse angle = 14(7) + 24

= 98 + 24

= 122 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

The mean is the average of a set of numbers. To calculate mean, you would add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are.

50 + 2 + 36 + 12 + 40 + 10 + 14 + 27 + 13 + 3 + 36 + 10 + 9 + 34 + 42 + 1 + 24 + 154 + 4 + 21 + 31 + 7 + 4 + 12 + 3 + 31 + 8 + 3 + 24 + 66 + 3 + 22 + 52 + 2 + 25 + 5 + 14 + 29 + 48 + 4 = 935

There are 40 numbers in the set, so you would divide by 40.

935 ÷ 40 = 23 15/40 = 23.375

So, the mean is 23.375.

The median is basically the "middle" of a sorted list of numbers. To find the median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle number.

1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 21, 22, 24, 24, 25, 27, 29, 31, 31, 34, 36, 36, 40, 42, 48, 50, 52, 66, 154

So, the median is 14.

The mode is the number that appears the most often in a set of numbers.

3 appears 4 times in this set of numbers.

So, the mode is 3.

Answer:

Add these numbers together 1, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 10, 12, 12, 13, 14, 14, 21, 22, 24, 24, 25, 27, 29, 31, 31, 34, 36, 36, 40, 42, 48, 50, 52, 66, 150

=929

Then divide by the amount of numbers : 39

929/39 = 23.820512

Median: 14

Arrange the numbers is least to greatest.

Find the number in the middle of the set.
