A percent is just that number over hundred, so if it was 20%, it would be 20/100. That could be termed to differentiate the quantity amounts

An oil-well contractor drills a shaft 7 meters deeper into the ground every 2 hours. Which graph has a slope that best represent
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Graph G

Step-by-step explanation:

The graphs are attached

Given that the oil-well contractor drills a shaft 7 meters deeper into the ground every 2 hours, hence the rate at which the shaft drills = 7 meter / 2 hours = 3.5 meters per hour

Since the drill goes into the ground, hence the rate is negative that is -3.5 meters per secong

The slope (rate of change) of a line (m) is given by:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

a) For graph F, the line passes through the point (0,0) and (10, -20). Hence:

Slope\ of\ line\ F=\frac{-20-0}{10-0} =-2\ meters\ per\ second

b) For graph G, the line passes through the point (0,0) and (10, -70). Hence:

Slope\ of\ line\ G=\frac{-70-0}{10-0} =-7\ meters\ per\ second

c) For graph H, the line passes through the point (0,0) and (10, -35). Hence:

Slope\ of\ line\ H=\frac{-35-0}{10-0} =-3.5\ meters\ per\ second

d) For graph J, the line passes through the point (0,-3.5) and (10, -3.5). Hence:

Slope\ of\ line\ j=\frac{-3.5-(-3.5)}{10-0} =0\ meters\ per\ second

Ken has a pole that is 26 inches long. He wishes to cut it into two pieces so that one piece will be 8 inches longer than the ot
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Do the question algebraically, represented by this equation:

let x be the shorter piece

x + (x + 8) = 26                      (longer piece is 8 units longer)

Remove brackets

x + x + 8 = 26                 Combine like terms              

2x + 8 = 26                   Start isolating "x"

2x + 8 - 8 = 26 - 8           Subtract 8 from both sides

2x = 18

2x/2 = 18/2           Divide both sides by 2

x = 9                    shorter piece

The shorter piece would be 9 inches.

If you needed the longer piece too:

longer piece = x + 8

x + 8

= 9 + 8

= 17

The longer piece would be 17 inches.

Check your answer:

Longer + Shorter = 26           Substitute the lengths

17 + 9 = 26                    Add

26 = 26                same number

LS = RS                left side equals right side

The answer is correct.

Given: △ABC, AB=5sqrt2 <br> m∠A=45°, m∠C=30°<br> Find: BC and AC
Marysya12 [62]

BC is 10 units and AC is 5+5\sqrt{3} units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise the sine rule

In ΔABC:

  • \frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{BC}{sin(A)}=\frac{AC}{sin(B)}
  • AB is opposite to ∠C
  • BC is opposite to ∠A
  • AC is opposite to ∠B

Let us use this rule to solve the problem

In ΔABC:

∵ m∠A = 45°

∵ m∠C = 30°

- The sum of measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°

∵ m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180

∴ 45 + m∠B + 30 = 180

- Add the like terms

∴ m∠B + 75 = 180

- Subtract 75 from both sides

∴ m∠B = 105°

∵ \frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{BC}{sin(A)}

∵ AB = 5\sqrt{2}

- Substitute AB and the 3 angles in the rule above

∴ \frac{5\sqrt{2}}{sin(30)}=\frac{BC}{sin(45)}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ (BC) × sin(30) = 5\sqrt{2} × sin(45)

∵ sin(30) = 0.5 and sin(45) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}

∴ 0.5 (BC) = 5

- Divide both sides by 0.5

∴ BC = 10 units

∵ \frac{AB}{sin(C)}=\frac{AC}{sin(B)}

- Substitute AB and the 3 angles in the rule above

∴ \frac{5\sqrt{2}}{sin(30)}=\frac{AC}{sin(105)}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ (AC) × sin(30) = 5\sqrt{2} × sin(105)

∵ sin(105) = \frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}}{4}

∴ 0.5 (AC) = \frac{5+5\sqrt{3}}{2}

- Divide both sides by 0.5

∴ AC = 5+5\sqrt{3} units

BC is 10 units and AC is 5+5\sqrt{3} units

Suppose that we don't have a formula for g(x) but we know that g(3) = −1 and g'(x) = x2 + 7 for all x.
Sliva [168]

Answer:

  • g(2.95) ≈ -1.8; g(3.05) ≈ -0.2
  • A) tangents are increasing in slope, so the tangent is below the curve, and estimates are too small.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The linear approximation of g(x) at x=b will be ...

  g(x) ≈ g'(b)(x -b) +g(b)

Using the given relations, this is ...

  g'(3) = 3² +7 = 16

  g(x) ≈ 16(x -3) -1

Then the points of interest are ...

  g(2.95) ≈ 16(2.95 -3) -1 = -1.8

  g(3.05) ≈ 16(3.05 -3) -1 = -0.2

__

(b) At x=3, the slope of the curve is increasing, so the tangent lies below the curve. The estimates are too small. (Matches description A.)
