Answer:

$AZ=36$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that point A is between point Y and Z such that $YA=5.5$ , $AZ=2x$ and $YZ=41.5$ .

Using our given information, we can set an equation as:

$YZ=YA+AZ$

Substitute given values:

$41.5=5.5+2x$

Switch sides:

$5.5+2x=41.5$

$5.5-5.5+2x=41.5-5.5$

$2x=36$

Since $AZ=2x$ , so the length of segment AZ is 36 units.

YZ = YA + AZ
41.5 = 5.5 + AZ
AZ = 41.5 - 5.5
AZ = 36

So, your final answer is AZ = 36

Hope this helps!

For which pair of functions is the vertex of k(x)7 units below the vertex of f(x)?

kvv77 [185]

Answer: Option C

$f(x) = x^2;\ k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever we have a main function f(x) and we want to transform the graph of f(x) by moving it vertically then we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) + b$

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units down.

If $b> 0$ then the graph of k(x) will be the graph of f(x) displaced vertically b units upwards.

In this case we have

$f (x) = x ^ 2$

We know that this function has its vertex in point (0,0).

Then, to move its vertex 7 units down we apply the transformation:

$k (x) = f (x) - 7\\\\k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$ .

Then the function k(x) that will have its vertex 7 units below f(x) is

$k (x) = x ^ 2 -7$

Given the points J(4,-7) and L(-2,13), find the coordinates of point k on JL such that the ratio of jk is 1:4

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The coordinates of point k are (-2.8,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

we shall use the internal division formula to find the coordinates of point k

Mathematically, the formula is as follows;

Let’s call the coordinates of point k (x,y)

(x , y) = mx2 + nx1/(m + n) , my2 + ny1/(m + n)

From the question;

m = 1 , n = 4

x1 = 4, x2= -2

y1 = -7 , y2 = 13

Substituting these values in the equation, we have the following;

1(-2) + 4(4)/(1 + 4) , 1(13) + 4(-7)/(1+4)

(-2+16)/5, (13 -28)/5

= -14/5, -15/5

= (-2.8, -3)

Simplify the number into simplest radical form. Use the factor tree to help determine the factors. StartRoot 96 Endroot StartRoo

NikAS [45]

Answer:

$[tex]4608\sqrt{3}$ [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $\sqrt{96} *\sqrt{6}* 2*\sqrt{6}*4 *\sqrt{6} *4*\sqrt{3}$

2. $\sqrt{2^{5} *3} \sqrt{6} *2\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{3}$ <em>factoring 96</em>

<em>since $\sqrt{2^{5}*3 } = \sqrt{2^{5} } \sqrt{3}$ </em>

3. $\sqrt{2^{5} } \sqrt{3}\sqrt{6} *2\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{3}$

<em>using exponent rule - $(a^{b}) ^{c} = a^{bc}$ </em>

<em> $\sqrt{2^{5} } = 2^{5/2}$ </em>

4. $2^{5/2}\sqrt{3}\sqrt{2*3} *2\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{6}*4\sqrt{3}$

<em>doing some simple simplification and $4=2^{2}$ and 6=2*3</em>

5. $2^{5/2} \sqrt{3} \sqrt{2} \sqrt{3} *2\sqrt{2} \sqrt{3} *2^{2}\sqrt{2} \sqrt{3}*4\sqrt{3}$

<em>collecting the roots on one side and applying exponent rule</em>

6. $\sqrt{3} \sqrt{3}\sqrt{3} \sqrt{3}\sqrt{2} \sqrt{2}\sqrt{2} *2^{5/2+1+2+2} \sqrt{3}$

<em>Applying exponents rule on all $\sqrt{3}$ and $\sqrt{2}$ </em>

<em>7. $2^{1/2+1/2+1/2} *2^{5/2+1+2+2}*3^{1/2+1/2+1/2+1/2+1/2}$ </em>

<em>combining all powers of 2</em>

8. $2^{1/2+1/2+1/2+5/2+1+2+2}*3^{1/2+1/2+1/2+1/2+1/2}$

<em>Simplifying</em>

9. $2^{9} *3^{2}\sqrt{3}$

10. $512*9\sqrt{3}$

11. $4608\sqrt{3}$
