The coordinate of point D will be ( -0.5, 0.25 ).

<h3>What is coordinate geometry?</h3>

A coordinate plane is a 2D plane that is formed by the intersection of two perpendicular lines known as the x-axis and y-axis. A coordinate system in geometry is a method for determining the positions of the points by using one or more numbers or coordinates.

Given that point, D is 1/n of the way from C(−2.5, 1.25) to E(5, 15), and the value of n = 5.

The coordinates of point D will be:-

D = ( 1 / n ) C

D = ( 1 / n ) ( -2.5 , 1.25 )

D = ( 1 / 5 ) ( -2.5 , 1.25 )

D = ( -0.5 , 0.25 )

Therefore, the coordinate of point D will be ( -0.5, 0.25 ).

The length and width of the fence should be made 76.25 feet and 23.75 feet respectively. Also, the expression for the length is L = 3W + 5 and the perimeter is P = 2(4W + 5).

<h3>How to determine the fence's dimension?</h3>

Mathematically, the perimeter of a rectangle can be calculated by using this formula;

P = 2(L + W)

<u>Where:</u>

  • P is the perimeter of a rectangle.
  • L is the length of a rectangle.
  • W is the width of a rectangle.

Since the length of this fence is 5 more than 3 times the width, we have:

L = 3W + 5

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

200 = 2(3W + 5 + W)

200 = 2(4W + 5)

200 = 8W + 10

8W = 190

W = 190/8

W = 23.75 feet.

For the length, we have:

L = 3W + 5

L = 3(23.75) + 5

L = 76.25 feet.

For a certain​ candy, 20​% of the pieces are​ yellow, 15​% are​ red, 20​% are​ blue, 20​% are​ green, and the rest are brown. ​a
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the question we are given the percentages of each of the types of candies in the bag except for brown. Since the sum of all the percentages equals 75% and brown is the remaining percent then we can calculate that brown is (100-75 = 25%) 25% of the bag. Now we can show the probabilities of getting a certain type of candy by placing the percentages over the total percentage (100%).

  • Brown: \frac{25}{100}
  • Yellow or Blue: \frac{20}{100} +\frac{20}{100} = \frac{40}{100}  ....add the numerators
  • Not Green:  \frac{80}{100}.... since the sum of all the rest is 80%
  • Stiped:  \frac{25}{100} .... there are 0 striped candies.

Assuming the <u><em>ratios/percentages</em></u> of the candies stay the same having an infinite amount of candy will not affect the probabilities. That being said in order to calculate consecutive probability of getting 3 of a certain type in a row we have to multiply the probabilities together. This is calculated by multiplying the numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators.

  • 3 Browns: \frac{25*25*25}{100*100*100} = \frac{15,625}{1,000,000} = \frac{1.5625}{100}

  • the 1st and 3rd are red while the middle is any. We multiply 15% * (total of all minus red which is 85%) * 15% like so.

\frac{15*85*15}{100*100*100} = \frac{19,125}{1,000,000} = \frac{1.9125}{100}

  • None are Yellow: multiply the percent of all minus yellow three times.

\frac{80*80*80}{100*100*100} = \frac{512,000}{1,000,000} = \frac{51.2}{100}

  • At least 1 green: multiply the percent of green by 100% twice, since the other two can by any

\frac{20*100*100}{100*100*100} = \frac{200,000}{1,000,000} = \frac{20}{100}

Troyanec [42]

The measure of each exterior angle is 60° and the polygon has 6 sides ⇒ 4th answer

Step-by-step explanation:

In a regular n-side polygon:

  • All sides are equal in lengths
  • All angles are equal in measure
  • The measure of each interior angle = \frac{(n-2)*180}{n}
  • The measure of each exterior angle = \frac{360}{n}
  • The sum of interior angle and exterior angle at a vertex is 180°

∵ The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is 120°

∵ The sum of interior angle and exterior angle at a vertex = 180°

∴ The measure of each exterior angle = 180 - 120

∴ The measure of each exterior angle = 60°

∵ The measure of each exterior angle = \frac{360}{n}

- Substitute the measure of the exterior angle by 60

∴ 60=\frac{360}{n}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 60 n = 360

- Divide both sides by 60

∴ n = 6

∴ The polygon has 6 sides

The measure of each exterior angle is 60° and the polygon has 6 sides

Solve for x.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

\frac{3\±\sqrt{3}}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Whe have the function 3x^2-6x+2=0

To solve this equation we must factor.

To factor, we need to find the points where the function is equal to zero. So we use the quadratic formula

\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Where:

a = 3

b = -6

c = 2

Then

\frac{-(-6) + \sqrt{(-6)^2-4(3)(2)}}{2(3)} = \frac{3+\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\and\\\\\frac{-(-6) - \sqrt{(-6)^2-4(3)(2)}}{2(3)}= \frac{3-\sqrt{3}}{3}

finally the correct answer is  \frac{3\±\sqrt{3}}{3}
