Use the information in the diagram to find the length of segment AD. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

1 answer:

7 0

Based on the lengths of the given triangles and the length of segment BD, the length of segment AD is 22.20.

<h3>What is the length of segment AD?</h3>

The triangle ABC is a right angled triangle with segment AB being the hypothenuse.

We can therefore find this length using the Pythagoras Rule:

Hypothenuse ² = a² + b²

Hypothenuse ² = 28.6² + 23.2²

Hypothenuse ² = 1,356.20

Hypothenuse = √1,356.20

= 36.83

Length of AD:
= AB - BD

= 36.83 - 14.60

= 22.2

Jade can do 65 push ups in 5 minutes. At the same rate, how many push ups can you expect her to do in 7 minutes?

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion, where x is the number of push ups she can do in 7 minutes

$\frac{65}{5}$ = $\frac{x}{7}$

Cross multiply and solve for x:

5x = 455

x = 91

So, Jade can do 91 push ups in 7 minutes

Can you find the missing angles?

Nitella [24]

Every triangle has 180 degrees when you add there angles so you know that they will add up to 180
they are right triangles so the right angle has 90 degrees
so for the yellow triangle
90+45+x=180
135+x=180
45=x
we can tell where the purple and yellow triangle touch is 90 so 45+x=90 to find that angle which is 45
and the other one is 45
so there are two 90 degree angles and three 45 degree angles.
I hope that made sence

I have these factoring questions I need help with.

snow_lady [41]

$f(x)=4x^2+4x-3$

1. Determine y-intercept.

The y-intercept is (0,-3). Substitute x = 0 in the equation as we get f(x) = -3 as the y-intercept.

2. Determine the zeros.

Factor the polynomials first. $(2x-1)(2x+3)$ This is the factored form. The zeros are the roots of equation. Therefore, the zeros are 1/2 and -3/2

3. Determine the Axis of Symmetry

We can solve this by using the formula of $x=-\frac{b}{2a}$ However, I'll be solving the Axis of Symmetry with Calculus instead.

$f'(x)=2(4x^{2-1})+1(4x^{1-1})-0\\f'(x)=8x+4$

Then let f'(x) = 0 to find the Axis of Symmetry.

$8x+4=0\\8x=-4\\x=-\frac{4}{8}\\x=-\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the Axis of Symmetry is -1/2

4. Determine the vertex.

Substitute the value of Axis of Symmetry in f(x).

$f(x)=4(-\frac{1}{2})^2+4(-\frac{1}{2})-3\\f(x)=4(\frac{1}{4})-2-3\\f(x)=1-2-3\\f(x)=-4$

Therefore the vertex is at (-1/2, -4)

5. Does the vertex representing max-pont or min-point?

The vertex represents the minimum point. The graph is upward, meaning the minimum point is the point that gives the LOWEST Y-VALUE.

7. Graph f(x)

Unfortunately I won't be able to graph. But I can tell you to graph a parabola that has the most curve at the vertex and intercepts y-axis at (0,-3).

--------------------------- End of Part 1 --------------------------------

2. Write the general form of Quadratic Function in standard form.

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

The graph can be easily determined about the y-intercept and being an upward or downward parabola along with how narrow or wide the parabola is.

For example, c value is the y-intercept as defined. When a > 0, the parabola is upward and when a < 0, the parabola is downward. The more value of | a | is, the more narrow it will be and the less value of | a | it is, the wider it will be.

3. Write in Factored Form

$y=(x+a)(x+b)\\y=(x-a)(x-b)\\y=(x+a)(x-b)\\y=(x-a)(x+b)$

These are factored forms with different types of operators.

The equation can be easily determined about the roots of equation. For example, if the function is in f(x) = (x+2)(x-1) Then the roots would be x = -2 and 1 as the graph will intercept x-axis at (-2,0) and (1,0)

4. Write in Vertex Form.

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

The equation can be easily determined for the vertex, axis of symmetry and the same narrow/wide/upward/downward parabola again.

The vertex is at (h,k) and the axis of symmetry is at x = h.

For example, $y=(x-2)^2+3$

The vertex would be at (2,3) and the axis of symmetry is x = 2.

To paint his room ted prepared 2 gallons of a paint mixture at a ratio of 3:1 white to blue. If he later decide to dilute the co

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

White = 1.67 gallons

Blue = 0.33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

White : blue = 3 : 1

Total ratio = 3 + 1

= 4

Gallons = 2

White = 3 /4 × 2

= 6 /4

= 3/2 gallons

Blue = 1 / 4 × 2

= 2/4

= 1/2

If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1

Total ratio = 5 + 1

= 6

Total gallons = 2

White = 5 / 6 × 2

= 10/6

= 5/3 gallons

= 1.67 gallons

Blue = 1 / 6 × 2

= 2 / 6

= 1/3 gallons

= 0.33 gallons
