How to construct a right scalene triangle using no given lengths with a ruler and a compass

1 answer:

5 0

A scalene triangle contains three unequal in length sides. Therefore, a right scalene triangle can be constructed without the use of a ruler or compass. The 90-degree angle can be signified by a small box in the corner of the triangle that measures 90 degrees.

Can you help me with 1 & 3?

iVinArrow [24]

For 1 multiply both sides by 3 which gives you 3y-y=12. Then combine like terms 2y=12. Lastly divide both sides by 2 and you get y=6. And for 3 first multiply both sides by 4 which gives you 6y-32=y+8. After that combine like terms 6y-y-32=8. Now add the equation together 5y=40 and then divide by 5 and get y=8

I need help with this problem. <br>

Answer:

(1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's this of $y=\sqrt{x}$ which is it's parent function.

How do we get to $y=-\sqrt{x-1}+4$ from there?

It has been reflected about the a-axis because of the - in front of the square root.

It has been shifted right 1 unit because of the -(1) in the square root.

It has been moved up 4 units because of the +4 outside the square root.

In general:

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$ has the following transformations from the parent:

Moved right h units if h is positive.

Moved left h units if h is negative.

Moved up k units if k is positive.

Moved down k units if k is negative.

If $a$ is positive, it has not been reflected.

If $a$ is negative, it has been reflected about the x-axis.

$a$ also tells us about the stretching factor.

The parent function has a starting point at (0,0). Where does this point move on the new graph?

It new graphed was the parent function but reflected over x-axis and shifted right 1 unit and moved up 4 units.

So the new starting point is (0+1,0+4)=(1,4).

A crew will arrive in one week and begin filming a city for a movie. The mayor is desperate to clean the city streets before fil

Reptile [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 week = 7 days of 24 hours each = 7×24 = 168 hours.

the first team can do 1/700 of the total work per hour.

the second team can do 1/600 if the total work per hour.

if they work together, then 1/700 + 1/600 of the total work can be done per hour.

to add these 2 fractions we need to bring them to the same denominator. and that would be 4200 (LCM of 700 and 600).

1/700 + 1/600 = 6/4200 + 7/4200 = 13/4200

so, together, they can do 13/4200 if the total job in 1 hour.

how many hours will they need together to finish the job ?

well, how often does 13 fit into 4200 (as 4200/4200 is the complete job) ?

4200 / 13 = 323.0769231... hours

so, it will still take a little bit over 323 hours to clean all the streets.

but there are only 168 hours until the film crew starts.

so, no, there is not enough time.

F(x) = x2 + 4x − 6

german

Since

$x^2+4x+4=(x+2)^2$

Is a perfect square, we can think of the "-6" at the end as a "+4-10" and we have

$x^2+4x-6 = x^2+4x+4-10 = (x+2)^2-10$

Which is the required form

Ira Lisetskai [31]

3/5 is 0.6
7/8 is 0.875
0.6/0.875 is 0.685714286
0.685714286 is 685714286/1000000000
