Answer:

Called the amount of girls is x

we have the amount of boys x - 4

so, we have

<=> x + ( x - 4 ) = 16

<=> x = 10

Answer:

$\tan \dfrac{\theta}2 = \dfrac{1}2$

Step by step Explanation:

$\sin \theta = \dfrac{\text{Perpendicular} }{\text{Hypotenuse}} = \dfrac{12}{15}\\\\\\\cos \theta = \dfrac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}= \dfrac{9}{15}\\\\\text{Now,}\\\\\tan \dfrac{\theta}2 = \dfrac{\sin \tfrac{\theta}2}{\cos \tfrac{\theta}2}\\\\\\~~~~~~~~=\dfrac{2\cos \tfrac{\theta}2 \sin \tfrac{\theta}2 }{2\cos^2 \tfrac{\theta}2}~~~~~~;\left[\text{Multiply by}~ 2\cos\tfrac{\theta}2 \right]$

$=\dfrac{\sin \theta}{1+ \cos \theta}~~~~~~~~~~~~;[2 \sin x \cos x = \sin 2x ~ \text{and}~ 2\cos^2 x =1+\cos 2x]\\\\\\=\dfrac{\tfrac{12}{15}}{1+ \tfrac{9}{15}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\tfrac{12}{15}}{\tfrac{24}{15}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{12}{15}\times \dfrac{15}{24}\\\\\\=\dfrac{12}{24}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}2$

2. Given a directed line segment with endpoints A(3, 2) and B(6, 11), what is the point that

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

The point of division is (5 , 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- If point (x , y) divides the line whose endpoints are $(x_{1},y_{1})$

and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ at ratio $m_{1}:m_{2}$ , then

$x=\frac{x_{1}m_{2}+x_{2}m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}$ and

$y=\frac{y_{1}m_{2}+y_{2}m_{1}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}$

* Lets solve the problem

- The directed line segment with endpoints A (3 , 2) and B (6 , 11)

- There is a point divides AB two-thirds from A to B

∵ The coordinates of the endpoints of the directed line segments

are A = (3 , 2) and B = (6 , 11)

∴ $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is (3 , 2)

∴ $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is (6 , 11)

∵ Point (x , y) divides AB two-thirds from A to B

- That means the distance from A to the point (x , y) is 2/3 from

the distance of the line AB, and the distance from the point (x , y)

to point B is 1/3 from the distance of the line AB

∴ $m_{1}:m_{2}$ = 2 : 1

∵ $x=\frac{(3)(1)+(6)(2)}{2+1}=\frac{3+12}{3}=\frac{15}{3}=5$

∴ The x-coordinate of the point of division is 5

∵ $y=\frac{(2)(1)+(11)(2)}{2+1}=\frac{2+22}{3}=\frac{24}{3}=8$

∴ The y-coordinate of the point of division is 8

∴ The point of division is (5 , 8)

1. what’s the distance between (-8, -6) and (4, 10)?

charle [14.2K]

Use the formula of a distance between two points:

$d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$(-8,\ -6),\ (4,\ 10)\\\\d=\sqrt{(4-(-8))^2+(10-(-6))^2}=\sqrt{12^2+16^2}\\\\=\sqrt{144+256}=\sqrt{400}=\boxed{20}\\\\(5,\ 14),\ (-3,\ -9)\\\\d=\sqrt{(-3-5)^2+(-9-14)^2}=\sqrt{(-8)^2+(-23)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{64+529}=\boxed{\sqrt{593}\approx24.35}$

saw5 [17]

Answer:

C = 100p + 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Because C is the total cost per day, 200 is the y-intercept because it's paid daily.

The 100 is the slope since "he pays a cost of $100 per phone produced)".
