We have
<span>3/5=(a+5)/25
3/5=(5/5)*(3/5)=15/25
therefore
15/25=</span>(a+5)/25<span>
15=a+5------------------------ > a=10

the answer is the option </span>a = 10

Convert x2 + y2 -4x = 0 to polar form.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

$r(r-4\cos \theta)=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equation:

$x^2 + y^2 -4x = 0$

We have to convert it into polar form.

We put

$x = r \cos \theta\\y = r\sin \theta$

Putting values, we get:

$x^2 + y^2 -4x = 0\\(r\cos \theta)^2 + (r\sin \theta)^2 - 4(r\cos \theta) = 0\\r^2(\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta) - 4r\cos \theta = 0\\r^2 - 4r\cos \theta = 0\\r(r-4\cos \theta)=0$

is the required polar form.

A box contains 100 colored chips; some are pink and some are blue. Milton chooses a chip at random, records the color, and place

Lena [83]

The approximate number of pink chips is 40. Here's why: what you need to do is set up the problem as shown below. 12 goes above 30 because you have to know what the total number of chips chosen is in order to relate it to 100 chips. From there, all you have to do is cross-multiply and divide (or my middle school teacher used to call it fish.... I'll explain why). First you are going to draw a line from the 100 to the 12 and multiply them. then you are going to curve the line that you will draw from the 12 to the 30 and divide the product of 12 and 100 by 30. Then you will draw a line from the 30 to the X meaning that the quotient that you find from the product of 120 and 100 divided by 30 equals X. Hope that helps.

A company manufactures penny number 2 nails that are 1 inch in length. The actual length is allowed to vary by up to \displaysty

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The absolute value equation representing the length of the nail is :

$\frac{31}{32} \leqslant x \leqslant 1 \frac{1}{32}$

A nail of length 1.05 inches is unacceptable

Actual Length of nail = 1 inch

Allowable variation = 1/32 inches

The minimum allowable length :

actual length - allowable variation

$1 - \frac{1}{32} = \frac{31}{32}$

The maximum allowable length :

Actual length + allowable variation

$1 + \frac{1}{32} = 1 \frac{1}{32}$

The length of X, of the nail must be follow the equation :

Minimum ≤ X ≤ maximum

$\frac{31}{32} \leqslant x \leqslant 1 \frac{1}{32}$

A nail of length 1.05 inches

Maximum nail length = 1 1/32 = 1.031

1.05 > 1.031 ; hence, it is greater than the maximum allowable length and hence, Unacceptabe

How to determine whether to move right or left on the number line when adding rational numbers?

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

So if you're adding two negatives you move left, positive you move right, and when you have to determine a negative, and a positive you just have to see which one is the farthest from zero which the farthest one's sign is either positive, or negative. Positive to move right, and negative to move left.
