If a storm window has an area of 448 square inches, what are the dimensions if the window is 12 inches higher than it is wide (w

x h)?

Let width = w  then we have the equation:-

w(w + 12) = 448

w^2 + 12w - 448 = 0

(w - 16)(w + 28) = 0

w = 16  

Answer: the dimensions of the window are width 16 by height 28 inches

a chord of 12cm long of 8cm is away from the of the circle what is the lenght of the chord which is 6cm away from the centre
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The length of the chord is 16 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, a line from the center of the circle to a chord divides the chord into 2 equal portions

From the first part of the question, we can get the radius of the circle

The radius form the hypotenuse, the two-portions of the chord (12/2 = 6 cm) and the distance from the center to the chord forms the other side of the triangle

Thus, by Pythagoras’ theorem; the square of the hypotenuse equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

Thus,

r^2 = 8^2 + 6^2

r^2= 64 + 36

r^2 = 100

r = 10 cm

Now, we want to get a chord length which is 6 cm away from the circle center

let the half-portion that forms the right triangle be c

Using Pythagoras’ theorem;

10^2 = 6^2 + c^2

c^2 = 100-36

c^2 = 64

c = 8

The full

length of the chord is 2 * 8 = 16 cm

What is the slope of the line on the graph?
Bogdan [553]
Answer: 1/2

When looking at a graph, you need to follow the formula rise/run. This means that between two points, you need to find the distance up and down/left and right.

Looking at points (0,2) and (2,3), I see that the second point is 1 point higher. Let’s add that in for rise.

Rise/run

1/run

Now for run. The second point is 2 points to the right of the first one. Let’s add that in.

1/2

This is your answer! Hope this helps comment below for more questions :)

The height of an object tossed upward with an initial velocity of 120 feet per second is given by the formula h = −16t2 + 120t,
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

7.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h =  - 16 {t}^{2}  + 120t \\  \because \:  we \: have \: to \: find \:  the  \:  time  \: required  \:  \\ for \:  the \:  object \:  to \:  return to \:  its  \:  \\ point \:  of  departure. \\  \therefore \: plug \: h = 0 \: in \: the \: given \: euation. \\  \therefore \: 0 =   - 16 {t}^{2}  + 120t \\ \therefore \:16 {t}^{2}  - 120t = 0 \\ \therefore \:8t(2t - 15) = 0 \\ \therefore \:8t = 0 \:  \: or \:  \: (2t - 15) = 0 \\ \therefore \:t =  \frac{0}{8}  \: or \: t =  \frac{15}{2}  \\ \therefore \:t = 0 \: or \: t = 7.5 \\  \because \: t = 0 \: is \: not \: possible \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{  \therefore \: t = 7.5 \: seconds}}

Thus, the time required for the object to return to its point of departure is 7.5 seconds.

PLATO: Type the correct answer in each box. The vector is first dilated by a factor of 2.5 and then rotated by pi/2 radians. If
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

a = -1, b = -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rule for the dilation of a vector \binom{x}{y} by a scale factor of k is,

(x, y) → (kx, ky)

BY using this rule for a vector \binom{-1}{4} by a scale factor of 2.5

\binom{-1}{4} → \binom{-2.5}{1}

Followed by the rotation by 90° Or \frac{\pi }{2} radians,

Rule for rotation of a vector by 90° is,

(x, y) → (-y, x)

By this rule vector \binom{-2.5}{1} will become,

\binom{-2.5}{1} → \binom{-1}{-2.5}

If we represent this vector by \binom{a}{b},

Then a = -1 and b = -2.5 will be the answer.
