Qty % = Qty (%)

Solution 1: x .40 .40(x)

Solution 2: <u> 96 - x </u> <u> .25 </u> <u> .25(96 - x) </u>

Mixture: 96 .37 .40x + .25(96 - x)

96(.37) = .40x + .25(96 - x)

35.52 = .40x + 24 - .25x

35.52 = .15x + 24

11.52 = .15x

76.8 = x

Solution 2: 96 - x = 96 - 76.8 = 19.2

Answer: 76.8 L of 40% solution, 19.2 L of 25% solution

The hypotenuse of a right triangle has endpoints A(4, 1) and B(–1, –2). On a coordinate plane, line A B has points (4, 1) and (n

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

$(-1,1),(4,-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The hypotenuse of a right triangle has endpoints A(4, 1) and B(–1, –2).

To find: coordinates of vertex of the right angle

Solution:

Let C be point $(x,y)$

Distance between points $(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)$ is given by $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$AC=\sqrt{(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2}\\BC=\sqrt{(x+1)^2+(y+2)^2}\\AB=\sqrt{(4+1)^2+(1+2)^2}=\sqrt{25+9}=\sqrt{34}$

ΔABC is a right angled triangle, suing Pythagoras theorem (square of hypotenuse is equal to sum of squares of base and perpendicular)

$34=\left [ (x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (x+1)^2+(y+2)^2 \right ]$

Put $(x,y)=(-1,1)$

$34=\left [ (-1-4)^2+(1-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (-1+1)^2+(1+2)^2 \right ]\\34=25+9\\34=34$

which is true. So, $(-1,1)$ can be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(4,-2)$

$34=\left [ (4-4)^2+(-2-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (4+1)^2+(-2+2)^2 \right ]\\34=9+25\\34=34$

which is true. So, $(4,-2)$ can be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(1,1)$

$34=\left [ (1-4)^2+(1-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (1+1)^2+(1+2)^2 \right ]\\34=9+4+9\\34=22$

which is not true. So, $(1,1)$ cannot be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(2,-2)$

$34=\left [ (2-4)^2+(-2-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (2+1)^2+(-2+2)^2 \right ]\\34=4+9+9\\34=22$

which is not true. So, $(2,-2)$ cannot be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(4,-1)$

$34=\left [ (4-4)^2+(-1-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (4+1)^2+(-1+2)^2 \right ]\\34=4+25+1\\34=30$

which is not true. So, $(4,-1)$ cannot be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(-1,4)$

$34=\left [ (-1-4)^2+(4-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (-1+1)^2+(4+2)^2 \right ]\\34=25+9+36\\34=70$

which is not true. So, $(-1,4)$ cannot be a vertex

So, possible points for the vertex are $(-1,1),(4,-2)$

A circle has a 10 centimeter radius. Find the area of the circle to the nearest tenth. (Use 3.14 for ?)

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

314.2 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a circle of radius r is A = 3.14r^2.

With r = 10 cm, r^2 = 100 cm^2, and so the area of this circle is 314.2 cm^2, to the nearest tenth.

Please someone help this question is hurting my small brain.

If the bottom side is 20 cm, then each line BE and CE would each be 10 cm.

Now, just focus on the top left triangle. You have one side with 20 cm, and the other side with 10 cm. You are left with the hypotenuse, which you need to figure out the value of.

Since this is a right triangle, you can use the Pythagorean theorem -> a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse.

20^2 + 10^2 = c^2
400 + 100 = c^2
500 = c^2
22.36 = c
