Answer:

MN=8

Step-by-step explanation:

since AM/AC = AN/AB = 2/5,

then ∆ABC similar to ∆ANM.

since ∆ABC ~ ∆ANM,

then MN || BC.

by similarity

MN = BC•2/5 = 8

Which of the following is being constructed in the image.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

  3. a line perpendicular to a given line through a point not on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

The point not on the line suggests that choices 1 and 3 are possibilities. The fact that the dotted line is not parallel (and is perpendicular) to the solid line suggests that choice 3 is applicable and choice 1 is not.

The short arcs are equidistant from the end points of the chord that intercepts the larger arc. Hence the line through the crossing point of the short arcs and the point on the other side of the line will be the perpendicular bisector of the chord, and will be perpendicular to the solid line. Creating that perpendicular is likely the purpose of the construction.

Hey there!!

Fill in the blanks :-

⇒ First graph the line. Locate the <u>value of x </u>on the x-axis. Draw a vertical line from <u>point plotted on the x-axis </u>to the graph of the function and a horizontal line segment from the graph of the function to the y-axis.

<em>Find the value of f(x) when x is -2. </em>

f(x) = \frac{3}{2}x-4

Remember :- <u><em>f(x) is basically the y-value. It is just denoted as _f(x), it stands for function of x. Which means, the value of y, depends upon the value of x or the function of x. </em></u>

Given : x = - 2

Plugging in the values :

... f(-2) = \frac{3*(-2)}{2}-4

... f(-2) = \frac{-3}{1} - 4

... f(-2) = -7

The last fill in the blank :

The value of y on the y-axis is the value of the function. Therefore, the value of f(x) is <u>-7 </u>when x is -2.

Hope it helps!!

If f(x) = 2x + 3 and g(x) = (x - 3)/2, what is the value of f[g(-5)]?
kap26 [50]
<span>If f(x) = 2x + 3 and g(x) = (x - 3)/2, what is the value of f[g(-5)]? f[g(-5)] means substitute -5 for x in the right side of g(x), simplify, then substitute what you get for x in the right side of f(x), then simplify. It's a "double substitution". To find f[g(-5)], work it from the inside out. In f[g(-5)], do only the inside part first. In this case the inside part if the red part g(-5) g(-5) means to substitute -5 for x in g(x) = (x - 3)/2 So we take out the x's and we have g( ) = ( - 3)/2 Now we put -5's where we took out the x's, and we now have g(-5) = (-5 - 3)/2 Then we simplify: g(-5) = (-8)/2 g(-5) = -4 Now we have the g(-5)] f[g(-5)] means to substitute g(-5) for x in f[x] = 2x + 3 So we take out the x's and we have f[ ] = 2[ ] + 3 Now we put g(-5)'s where we took out the x's, and we now have f[g(-5)] = 2[g(-5)] + 3 But we have now found that g(-5) = -4, we can put that in place of the g(-5)'s and we get f[g(-5)] = f[-4] But then f(-4) means to substitute -4 for x in f(x) = 2x + 3 so f(-4) = 2(-4) + 3 then we simplify f(-4) = -8 + 3 f(-4) = -5 So f[g(-5)] = f(-4) = -5</span>

a student walks 50m on a bearing 0.25 degrees and then 200m due east how far is she from her starting point.​
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to use Physics here for this concept of vectors. Here are some stipulations I have set for the problem (aka rules I set and then followed throughout the problem):

** I am counting the 50 m as 2 significant digits even though it is only 1, and I am counting 200 as 3 significant digits even though it is only 1. 1 sig dig doesn't really give us enough accuracy, in my opinion.

** A bearing of .25 degrees is measured from the North and goes clockwise; that means that measured from the x axis, the angle is 89.75 degrees. This is the angle that is used in place of the bearing of .25 degrees.

** Due east has an angle measure of 0 degrees

Now let's begin.

We need to find the x and y components of both of these vectors. I am going to call the first vector A and the second B, while the resultant vector will be C. Starting with the x components of A and B:

A_x=50cos(89.75) so

A_x=.22

B_x=200cos(0) so

B_x=200 and we need to add those results together. Due to the rules for adding significant digits properly, the answer is

C_x=200 (and remember I am counting that as 3 sig fig's even though it's only 1).

Now for the y components:

A_y=50sin(89.75) so

A_y=50 (which I'm counting as 2 sig fig's)

B_y=200sin(0) so

B_y=0 and we need to add those results together.

C_y=50

Now for the resultant magnitude:

C_{mag}=\sqrt{(200)^2+(50)^2}  and that gives us a final magnitude of

C_{mag}=206 m

Now for the angle:

Since both the x and y components of the resultant vector are in quadrant 1, we don't need to add anything to the angle to get it right, so

tan^{-1}(\frac{50}{200})=14

The girl is 206 meters from her starting point at an angle of 14 degrees
