I need the answer to a and b

Mathematics
1 answer:
erica [24]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a. x = 7

b. x = 36/5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

The ratio of of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal.

<u>a). To find the value of x</u>

From the figure 1 we get two similar triangles, ΔABC and ADE

We can write,

AB/AD = AC/AE

3/6 = x/(x + 7)

3(x + 7) = 6 * x

3x + 21 = 6x

6x - 3x = 21

3x = 21

x = 21/3 = 7

<u>b). To find the value of x</u>

From the figure b we get

ΔABC ~  ΔEDF

AB/DE = BC/DF

4/5 = x/9

x = (4 * 9)/5 = 36/5

MODELING REAL LIFE A baseball is thrown up in the air. The table shows the heights $y$ (in feet) of the baseball after $x$ secon
nikklg [1K]

The equation for the path of the ball can be measured using a regression model calculator which produced the quadratic model ;

  • y(x) = - 16x² + 36x + 4
  • Height at x = 1.7 = 18.89 feets

<u>The table given</u> :

Time, x : __0.5 ___ 1 ____ 1.5 ____ 2

Height, y _ 18 ____22 ___ 24 ____ 12

<u>Using </u><u>technology</u><u> such as a </u><u>quadratic regression</u><u> calculator or </u><u>excel</u> ;

The quadratic regression model obtained is :

  • y(x) = - 16x² + 36x + 4

<u>The </u><u>height after, 1.7 seconds</u><u>, x = 1.7 can be calculated thus</u> :

Put x = 1.7 in the equation :

  • y(1.7) = - 16(1.7)² + 36(1.7) + 4
  • y = 18.89 feets

Therefore, the height of the baseball after 1.7 seconds will be 18.89 feets.

A jewelry maker has 24 jade beads and 30 teak beads.What is the greatest number of necklaces she can make? How many beads of eac
gulaghasi [49]

Jewelery maker has

24 jade beads

30 teak Beads

She has to make necklaces with each necklace having the same number of beads

So we need to find the highest common factor for both 24 and 30

The factors for both numbers are as follows

24 -1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24

30 - 1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30

The highest common factor for both is 6

The greatest number of necklaces she can make is 6

Number of jade beads - 24/6 = 4 jade beads

Number of teak beads - 30/6 = 5 teak beads

So each necklace will have 4 jade beads and 5 teak beads
