Find the appropriate perimeter of the figure below

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

55.7 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the figure is a rectangle and a half circle.

The three sides of the rectangle that need to be added toward the perimeter measure 15 in., 10 in., and 15 in.

Then you need the circumference of the half circle which has a 10-inch diameter.

circumference = (pi)d

circumference = 3.14 * 10 in. = 31.4 in.

We only need half the circumference, so we have 31.4 in./2 = 15.7 in.

Now we add the three sides of the rectangle listed above and the circumference of the half circle.

perimeter = 15 in. + 10 in. + 15 in. + 15.7 in.

perimeter = 55.7 in.

Reverse the two digits of my age, divide by three, add 20, and the result is my age. How many years old am I

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

48 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the age be xy or 10x + y.

Reverse the two digits of my age, divide by three, add 20, and the result is my age, convert this to equation:

(10y + x)/3 + 20 = 10x + y
(10y + x)/3 = 10x + y - 20
10y + x = 3(10x + y - 20)
10y + x = 30x + 3y - 60
30x - x + 3y - 10y = 60
29x - 7y = 60

We should consider both x and y are between 1 and 9 since both the age and its reverse are 2-digit numbers.

Possible options for x are:

29x ≥ 7*1 + 60 = 67 ⇒ x > 2, at minimum value of y,

and

29x ≤ 7*9 + 60 = 123 ⇒ x < 5, at maximum value of y.

So x can be 3 or 4.

29*3 - 7y = 60
87 - 7y = 60
7y = 27
y = 27/7, discarded as fraction.

29*4 - 7y = 60
116 - 7y = 60
7y = 56
y = 8

So the age is 48.

3) A tour trolley covers a distance of 8.5 miles in of an hour.

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

a) Ans: 8.5 miles per hour

b) Ans: 46.75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Speed = Distance/Time

8.5/1h = 8.5 miles per hour

b) Distance = Speed x Time

8.5 miles per hour x 5.5h = 46.75 miles

The given line segment has a midpoint at (3, 1).

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{3}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line segment has a midpoint at (3, 1) and goes through (2, 4), (3, 1), and (4, -2). We can use any two of the three points to calculate the equation of the line. Let us use the points (2, 4) and (4, -2)

Therefore the line goes through (2, 4) and (4, -2). The equation of a line passing through $(x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)$ is:

$\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ .

Therefore the line passing through (2, 4) and (4, -2) has an equation:

$\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\frac{y-4}{x-2}=\frac{-2-4}{4-2}\\\frac{y-4}{x-2}=\frac{-6}{2}\\y-4=x-2(-3)\\y-4=-3x+6\\y=-3x+10$

Comparing with the general equation of line: y = mx + c, the slope (m) = -3 and the intercept on the y axis (c) = 10

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slope is -1. If the slope of line one is m1 and the slope of line 2 = m2, then the two lines are perpendicular if:

$m_1m_2=-1$ .

Therefore The slope (m2) of the perpendicular bisector of y = -3x + 10 is:

$m_1m_2=-1\\-3m_2=-1\\m_2=\frac{1}{3}$

Since it is the perpendicular bisector of the given line segment, it passes through the midpoint (3, 1). The equation of the perpendicular bisector is:

$\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=m\\\frac{y-1}{x-3}=\frac{1}{3}\\ y-1= \frac{1}{3}(x-3)\\ y-1=\frac{1}{3}x-1\\y=\frac{1}{3}x$

the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the perpendicular bisector of the given line segment is $y=\frac{1}{3}x$

Write the first ten terms of the geometric sequence a1 = 3, r = 1.1 to two decimal places. Am I supposed to multiply 3 by 1.1 te

Makovka662 [10]

The general formula for geometric series is tn = a×rⁿ⁻¹. In this question, a (or a1) is 3, and r is 1.1, therefore the first ten terms would be 3×1.1⁰ (3) , 3×1.1¹ (3.3), 3×1.1² (3.63) and so on up until you get to 3×1.1⁹ or 7.07.
