If Z is the centroid of ABC , AZ = 2/3 AY and ZY = 1/3 AY
which means that: ZY = 1/2 AZ = 1/2 x 12 = 6

Answer:

The Length of ZY = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Z is the centroid of Triangle ABC .

           AZ =12

To Find : Length of ZY

Solution :

Definition : The line segment between the midpoint of the opposite side and  a vertex of the triangle is the median of a triangle and each median divides the triangle into two triangles having equal area and the centroid of the triangle is the intersection of the three medians.

The centroid divides each median into two parts in the ratio 2:1.

So, \frac{AZ}{ZY} = \frac{2}{1}

\frac{12}{ZY} = \frac{2}{1}

\frac{12}{2} = ZY

6 = ZY

Thus, The Length of ZY = 6

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Dependent variable: Memory

Independent variable: Position

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Dr. Graham was curious as to whether memory is affected by position during study.

He wants to check the effect of position(either laying down on a bed or sitting up at a desk) effects the memory(list of 50 words).

Dependent and independent variable:

  • Dependent variable is affected by the changes in the independent variable.
  • Dependent variable are also known as response variable.
  • Independent variables are the free variables.

For the given study

Dependent variable:

Memory that is determined by the recalling power of list of 50 words.

Independent variable:

Position that is either laying down on a bed or sitting up at a desk

Solve the equation 9 (x+1)^4-19 (x+1)^2+2=0
Anna11 [10]
9(x + 1)^4 - 19(x + 1)^2 + 2 = 0
After expanding and re-factoring, we have:
(3x + 2)(3x + 4)(x^2 + 2x - 1) = 0
solutions are x = -2/3, x = -4/3, x = -1 - sqrt(2), x = sqrt(2) - 1

Please help me find the greatest common factor for these 2 problems..
Kisachek [45]

A greatest common factor is the largest number that goes into two or more numbers (in this case two). To find the GCF of two numbers, we have to find the prime factorization (how to express a number as a product of prime numbers) and then see which numbers are common in both of the prime factorizations.

11. The prime factorization of 12 is 3 * 2 * 2. The prime factorization of 18 is 3 * 3 * 2. Looking at the prime factorizations, we can see that both of them have 3 and 2. That means that the GCF is 3 * 2 which is 6.

12. The prime factorization of 48 is 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 3. The prime factorization of 80 is 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 5. We see that the numbers shared are 2, 2, 2, and 2. That means that the GCF is 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 or 16.
