DIA [1.3K]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

    B.\cfrac{1}{2}

<h3>Given equation</h3>

  • \cfrac{12y-1}{2} =\cfrac{9y+8}{5}

<h3>Solve it for y</h3>

1. Cross - multiply:

  • 5(12y-1)=2(9y+8)

2. Open parenthesis:

  • 60y-5=18y+16

3. Collect like terms:

  • 60y-18y=16+5

4. Simplify:

  • 42y=21

5. Divide both sides by 42:

  • y=21/42=1/2

Matching answer choice is B

Si una persona de lunes a viernes entrena diariamente 1 hora ¿cuanto tiempo debe entrenar el sábado para que el promedio diario
mariarad [96]

Answer: 4 horas

Step-by-step explanation:

Una semana (de lunes a viernes) contiene 5 días

Si se entrena 1 hora por día:

1 x 5 = 5 horas (total de horas de entrenamiento de lunes a viernes)

Ese total más el número de horas que se entrena el sábado (x) dividido por 6 (numero de días en la semana incluyendo sábado) debe ser igual a el promedio de horas entrenadas en los 6 días (1.5)

(5+x) /6 =1.5

Despajando x:

5+x =1.5 x 6

5+x =9

x =9-5

x = 4 horas

The city is planning to add a fishpond to a neighborhood park the figure below is a scale drawing of the fishpond it's scale is
notsponge [240]
I saw the figure of the fishpond. It composed of a rectangle and a circle. The circle is cut into two and each half is attached to the width of the rectangle making an oblong shaped fishpond.

Length of the rectangle: 2.5 inch
Width of the rectangle and diameter of the circle: 1 inch

1/2 inch equals 15 feet.

2.5 inches = 75 feet
1 inch = 30 feet

Area of a rectangle = 75 ft * 30 ft = 2,250 ft²
Area of a circle = 3.14 * (15ft)² = 3.14 * 225ft² = 706.50 ft²

Total Area = 2,250 ft² + 706.50 ft² = 2,956.50 ft²

A line includes the points (4,1) and (8, 2). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation: Slope intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slop and b is the x intercept

We can solve for slope using the given points

(2-1)/(8-4) = 1/4, thus m = 1/4

y = 1/4x +b

Now to solve for b, we can just plug in one of the points to see what makes b work

1 = 4*(1/4) + b

1 = 1 +b

b = 0

A student drew a circle and two secant segment. He concluded that if PQ ~= PS, Then QR ~= ST. Do you agree with the student’s co
9966 [12]

Answer:

  Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can get there a couple of ways. One makes use of the secant rules that tell you ...

  PQ × PR = PS × PT

Substituting for PR and PT, you have ...

  PQ × (PQ + QR) = PS × (PS + ST)

  PQ² + PQ×QR = PS² + PS×ST

Substituting PQ for PS everywhere, we have ...

  PQ² + PQ×QR = PQ² + PQ×ST

Dividing by PQ gives ...

  PQ + QR = PQ + ST

and subtracting PQ leads us to the conclusion ...

  QR = ST

_____

Another way to look at it is to draw the chord QS. Then ΔQPS is an isosceles triangle, and the perpendicular bisector of QS bisects ∠P and also goes through the circle center. Then the figure is symmetrical about that diameter secant, making QR ≅ ST.
