If (a,3) is a point on the graph of y=2x-5, what is a?

Afina-wow [57]

To solve this, you already have the y value of the coordinate, which is 3, and the x value is represented by a. Plug the values into your graph equation so that it looks like this: 3=2a-5
Then, add 5 to both sides to isolate 2a:
8=2a
Finally, divide both sides by 2 to get that a=4
Hope this helps!

A piece of wire 40 cm long is to be cut into two pieces. One piece will be bent to form a circle and; the other will be bent to

Brums [2.3K]

<h3>The perimeter of circle = 17.6 cm</h3><h3>Perimeter of square = 22.4 cm</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of the wire = 40 cm

Let us assume the circumference of the circle = k cm

So, the circumference of the square = ( 40 - k) cm

Now,as circumference of circle = 2πR

⇒2πR = k cm or, R = $(\frac{k}{2\pi})$

Area of the circle = πR²

or, A = $\pi (\frac{k}{2\pi} )^2$

$= \pi \times (\frac{k^2}{(2\pi)^2} ) = \frac{k^2}{4 \pi} \\\implies A = \frac{k^2}{4 \pi}$ ....... (1)

Similarly , perimeter of square = 4 x Side

⇒ 4 x Side = ( 40 - k) cm ⇒ S = $(\frac{40 - k}{4} )$

Area of the square = (Side)² = $(\frac{40 - k}{4} ) ^2$

Solving, we get: $A = \frac{1600 + k^2 - 80 k}{16}$ ....... (1)

So, combining (1) and (2), total area A is

$A = (\frac{k^2}{4 \pi} ) + \frac{k^2 + 1600 - 80 k }{16}$

or, we get: A = 0.07962 k² + 0.0625 k² + 100 - 5 k

A = 0.1422 k² - 5 k + 100

For axis of symmetry : $k = (\frac{-b}{2a} ) = (-\frac{-5}{2(0.1420}) = 17.6$

⇒ k = 17.6 inches

So, the perimeter of circle = 17.6 cm

Perimeter of square = (40 - 17.6 ) = 22.4 cm

I'm really confused about this. Probabilities have always been a pain for me and I really don't understand this

nordsb [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to notice is the question says it is given that the person is between the ages 23 and 60, so we only care about those people. So then we want to know how likely it would be to pick someone with over 50 messages a month. So what you would do is take the amount of people who are between 23 and 60 and send over 50 text messages, and divide that by the total amount of people 23-60 (since that is the pool of people we have). Doing so we find there is 229 people aged 23-60 which then makes the answer 157/229 or A.
