Answer:

The given statement:

The midpoint of a line can be found using either a compass and straightedge construction or a straightedge and tracing paper construction is a TRUE statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

The construction of a mid-point with the help of a compass is same as the construction of perpendicular bisector of a line segment.

Also,

To construct the midpoint of a line segment using straightedge and a tracing paper

  • ,start by drawing a line segment on a  paper.
  • Next, fold the paper so that the endpoints of the line segment overlap.
  • This creates a crease in the paper.
  • The intersection of the crease and the original line segment is the midpoint of the line segment.

Hence, the given statement is  a TRUE statement.

F(x)=4x-8 and g(x)=5x+6, find (f+g)(x)
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

9x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you are adding the two functions, you should first start adding like terms. 4x + 5x is 9x. -8 + 6 is -2. Thus the value of (f+g)(x) is 9x-2.

Suppose that, on a 3,000-mile New York to Los Angeles flight, United Continental, American, and Southwest flew a total of 270 em
allsm [11]

Answer:

The number of empty seats each of these three airlines carried on its flight are as follows:

United Continental = 150 empty seats

American = 50 empty seats

Southwest = 70 empty seats

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question. See the attached pdf for the complete question.

The explanation of the answers is now provided as follows:

Let U, A and W represents number of empty seats of United Continental, American, and Southwest respectively. Therefore, we have:

U + A + W = 270 ………………………. (1)

Since United Continental had three times as many empty seats as American, this implies that:

U = 3A ………………………………… (2)

Substituting U = 3A into equation (1), we have:

3A +A + W = 270

4A + W = 270

W = 270 - 4A ………………………….. (3)

For the cost, we have:

3,000[((14.90 / 100) * 3A) + (14.60A / 100) + (12.40W / 100)] = $114,990

((14.90 / 100) * 3A) + (14.60A / 100) + (12.40W / 100) = $114,990 / 3,000

((14.90 / 100) * 3A) + (14.60A / 100) + (12.40W / 100) = 38.33

0.447A + 0.146A + 0124W = 38.33

0.593A + 0.124W = 38.33 ………………… (4)

Substituting W = 270 - 4A from equation (3) into (4) and solve for A, we have:

0.593A + 0.124(270 - 4A) = 38.33

0.593A + 33.48 - 0.496A = 38.33

0.593A - 0.496A = 38.33 - 33.48

0.097A = 4.84

A = 4.84 / 0.097

A = 49.8969072164948

Rounding to a whole number, we have:

A = 50

Substituting A = 50 into each of equations (2) and (3), we have:

U = 3 * 50 = 150

W = 270 - (4 * 50) = 70

Therefore, the number of empty seats each of these three airlines carried on its flight are as follows:

United Continental = 150 empty seats

American = 50 empty seats

Southwest = 70 empty seats

If a is a positive integer and b is a negative integer, which expression must be positive?
nydimaria [60]

So, let's solve all of them and see:

a - (-b) = a + b ⇒ can be either positive or negative, depending on the numbers

a + (-b) = a - b ⇒ can either be positive or negative, depending on the numbers

a * (-b) = a * (-b) ⇒ negative answer no matter what

a / (-b) = a / (-b) ⇒ negative answer no matter what


So the answer is:

<em>"None of the above"</em>.


Hope it helped,
