Answer:

the accurate mathematical claim of the product would be 112.5

Step-by-step explanation:

On top of the container cover it says that it was 25% more pads and it was originally just 90 pads before they added the 25%. However, 25% of 90 is 22.5 which comes up to 112.5 if added together.A percent is any number over 100, so 25% is 25 over 100, this means that 25% can be written as 25/100. Now, any number in fractional form is the same as division so 25% can also be written as a decimal, we just move the decimal point 2 places to the right of 25 which results to 0.25. As we found out above 25% equals 0.25 so we can solve this problem using decimals. All we need to do is multiply 90 by 0.25 which gives us 22.5 and when added to 90 it gives us 112.5 as a result. The product however claims that it has 115 pads which is mathematically incorrect, the accurate mathematical claim of the product should be 112.5.

In triangle $ABC$, let angle bisectors $BD$ and $CE$ intersect at $I$. The line through $I$ parallel to $BC$ intersects $AB$ and
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

41

Step-by-step explanation:

If you work through a series of obscure calculations involving area and the radius of the incircle, they boil down to a simple fact:

... For MN║BC, perimeter ΔAMN = perimeter ΔABC - BC = AB+AC

.. = 17+24 = 41

_____

Wow! Thank you for an interesting question with a not-so-obvious answer.

_____

<em>A little more detail</em>

The point I that you have defined is the incenter—the center of an inscribed circle in the triangle. Its radius is the distance from I to any side, such as BC, for example.

If we use "Δ" to represent the area of the triangle and "s" to represent the semi-perimeter, (AB+BC+AC)/2, then the incircle has radius Δ/s. The area Δ can be computed from Heron's formula by ...

... Δ = √(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)) . . . . where a, b, c are the side lengths

For this triangle, the area is Δ = √38480 ≈ 196.1632 units². That turns out to be irrelevant.

The altitude to BC will be 2Δ/(BC), so the altitude of ΔAMN = (2Δ/(BC) -Δ/s). Dividing this by the altitude to BC gives the ratio of the perimeter of ΔAMN to the perimeter of ΔABC, which is 2s.

Putting these ratios and perimeters together, we get ...

... perimeter ΔAMN = (2Δ/(BC) -Δ/s)/(2Δ/(BC)) × 2s

... = (2/(BC) -1/s) × BC × s = 2s -BC

... perimeter ΔAMN = AB +AC

Andrea constructed a triangle. Angle 1 and 3 are the same size and angle 2 has a measurement of 70 degrees. What is the measurem
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By triangle sum theorem,

Sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°.

m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180°

(m∠1 + m∠3) + m∠2 = 180°

2(m∠1) + 70° = 180° {Given → m∠1 = m∠3]

2(m∠1) = 110°

m∠1 = 55°

Therefore, m∠1 = m∠3 = 55°

What is the domain and range of the function y = 2x2 - 4x - 10?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of all polynomials is all real numbers.  To find the range, let's solve that quadratic for its vertex.  We will do this by completing the square.  To begin, set the quadratic equal to 0 and then move the -10 over by addition. The first rule is that the leading coefficient has to be a 1; ours is a 2 so we factor it out.  That gives us:

2(x^2-2x)=10

The second rule is to take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides.  Our linear term is 2 (from the -2x).  Half of 2 is 1, and 1 squared is 1.  So we add 1 into the parenthesis on the left.  BUT we cannot ignore the 2 sitting out front of the parenthesis.  It is a multiplier.  That means that we didn't just add in a 1, we added in a 2 * 1 = 2.  So we add 2 to the right as well, giving us now:

2(x^2-2x+1)=10+2

The reason we complete the square (other than as a means of factoring) is to get a quadratic into vertex form.  Completing the square gives us a perfect square binomial on the left.

x^2-2x+1=(x-1)^2 and on the right we will just add 10 and 2:

2(x-1)^2=12

Now we move the 12 back over by subtracting and set the quadratic back to equal y:

2(x-1)^2-12=y

From this vertex form we can see that the vertex of the parabola sits at (1,-12).  This tells us that the absolute lowest point of the parabola (since it is positive it opens upwards) is -12.  Therefore, the range is R={y|y ≥ -12}

Which set of ordered pairs does not represents a function?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The first set of ordered pairs is a function, because no two ordered pairs have the same first coordinates with different second coordinates. The second example is not a function, because it contains the ordered pairs (1,2) and (1,5). These have the same first coordinate and different second coordinates.
