There are 48 DVDs of comedies and dramas on the shelf. If 25% of the DVDs are comedies, how many are dramas?
Mazyrski [523]

There are 36 drama DVD's

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that there are 48 DVD's of comedies and dramas on shelf

25 % of DVD's are comedies

To find: number of drama DVD's

Total number of dvd = 48

Number of comedy dvd = 25 % of 48

Let us find 25 % of 48

\rightarrow 25 \% \text{ of } 48\\\\\rightarrow 25 \% \times 48\\\\\rightarrow \frac{25}{100} \times 48\\\\\rightarrow 0.25 \times 48 = 12

Thus, number of comedy dvd = 12

Thus we get,

number of drama DVD's = Total number of dvd - number of comedy dvd

number of drama dvd = 48 - 12 = 36

Thus there are 36 drama dvd's

Calculate the area of the parallelogram, giving your answer correct to 3 significant figures.
Oliga [24]

Answer:

114 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent, so

AB = CD , that is

13x - 7 = 5x + 9 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

8x - 7 = 9 ( add 7 to both sides )

8x = 16 ( divide both sides by 8 )

x = 2

Then

5x + 9 = 5(2) + 9 = 10 + 9 = 19

3x = 3(2) = 6

The area (A) of a parallelogram is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height ), thus

A = 19 × 6 = 114 units²

Solving Quadratic Equations using the Square Root Property
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

x = -2   or   x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to complete the square before you can take the square root of both sides.

x^2 + 7x + 10 = 0

Subtract 10 from both sides.

x^2 + 7x = -10

To complete the square, you need to add the square of half of the x-term coefficient to both sides.

The x-term coefficient is 7. Half of that is 7/2. Square it to get 49/4. Now we add 49/4 to both sides of the equation.

x^2 + 7x + \dfrac{49}{4} = -10 + \dfrac{49}{4}

(x + \dfrac{7}{2})^2 = -\dfrac{40}{4} + \dfrac{49}{4}

(x + \dfrac{7}{2})^2 = \dfrac{9}{4}

Now we use the square root property, if

x^2 = k, then

x = \pm \sqrt{k}

x + \dfrac{7}{2} = \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{9}{4}}

x + \dfrac{7}{2} = \pm \dfrac{3}{2}

x + \dfrac{7}{2} = \dfrac{3}{2}   or   x + \dfrac{7}{2} = -\dfrac{3}{2}

x = -\dfrac{4}{2}   or   x = -\dfrac{10}{2}

x = -2   or   x = -5

Complete the coordinate proof of the theorem.
mojhsa [17]
C(a,b), because the x-coordinate( first coordinate) is a (seeing as it is situated directly above point B, which also has an x-coordinate of a) and the y-coordinate ( second coordinate) is b (seeing as it is situated on the same horizontal level as point D, which also has a y-coordinate of b)

the length of AC can be calculated with the theorem of Pythagoras:

length AB = a - 0 = a
length BC = b - 0 = b

seeing as the length of AC is the longest, it can be calculated by the following formula:

It is called "Pythagoras' Theorem" and can be written in one short equation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^ means to the power of by the way)

in this case, A and B are lengths AB and BC, so lenght AC can be calculated as the following:

a^2 + b^2 = (length AC)^2
length AC = √(a^2 + b^2)

Extra information: Seeing as the shape of the drawn lines is a rectangle, lines AC and BD have to be the same length, so BD is also √(a^2 + b^2). But that is also stated in the assignment!
