Answer:

C, D, E

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers of marbles are:

  • Janae - m;
  • Jerome - m;
  • Gwen - 4(m+2);
  • John - 8m+4.

Janae, Jerome, and Gwen combined have

m + m + 4(m+2) = m + m +4m + 8 =6m + 8 marbles.

If John has more marbles than Janae, Jerome, and Gwen combined, then

8m+4>6m+8,\\ \\8m-6m>8-4,\\ \\2m>4,\\ \\m>2.

So, possible answers are

  • Janae and Jerome each have 3 marbles;
  • Janae and Jerome each have 4 marbles;
  • Janae and Jerome each have 5 marbles.

nadezda [96]

The line needs to be 8.06 m long

Explanation

Given that the ladder is 7 feet tall and the bottom of the slide should be 4 m away from the ladder.

The ladder,slide and the ground connecting them makes the sides of a right angled triangle with ladder as the height and ground as the base.

base=4m

height=7m

hypotenuse can be determined using pythagoras law

b^{2} +h^{2} =H^{2} \\x^{2} 4^{2}+ 7^{2}= H^{2} \\16+49=H^{2} \\H=\sqrt{65} \\=8.06 m

Find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola with the following equation.
frosja888 [35]
You are given the equation 36 = 9x² + 4y². You are asked to find the slopes of the asymptotes of the hyperbola. A hyperbola has the following general equation x²/a² + y²/b² = 1. the goal here is to find the slopes of the hyperbolic equation. So divide both sides by 36

36 = 9x² + 4y²
(1/36)[36 = 9x² + 4y²]
1 = x²/4 + y²/9
a² = 4
a = 2
and
b² = 9
b = 3

To find the slope, divide a/b and you will get 2/3.

K= 1/2mv^2<br> Solve for V
jeyben [28]

Hi there!

v = ±\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m} }

- - - - - - - - -

K = 1/2mv²

Isolate for the variable "v". We can begin by dividing both sides by 1/2. (Multiply by the reciprocal, or 2):

2 · K = 2 · (1/2mv²)

2K = mv²

Continue isolating by dividing both sides by "m":

2K / m = v²

Take the square root of both sides. Remember that the solution can either be positive or negative since there are positive and negative roots.

v = ±\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m} }
