What is ?5*1 3/5 A.5 2/5 B. 5 3/5 C. 8 D. 15

1 answer:

4 0

Change the mixed number to an improper fraction:
$1\frac{3}{5}$ = $\frac{8}{5}$

=5 × $\frac{8}{5}$
= $\frac{80}{5}$
=8

Answer is C. 8

damita uses the pythagorean theorem to write the equation 2k² = j² to represent the triangle shown. Is she correct? Explain.

Rudiy27

Answer:

Yes, She is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem:

base² + altitude² = hypotenuse²

k² + k² = j²

Add the like terms. Like terms have same variable with same power.

2k² = j²

Determine whether the graph represents a function . If it does represent a function , give its domain and range.

laiz [17]

Answer:

A function is a relationship that maps elements from a set (the domain) into elements from another set (the range)

Such that each element in the domain can be mapped into only one element from the range.

Let's see graphs 18, 20,24 and 30.

Remember that the axis that represents the domain is the horizontal one (usually represented with x), and the vertical axis represents the range (usually represented with y)

18) Here we can see that the point x = 1 his mapped into two different values of y.

we have the pair (1, 2) and the pair (1, -3)

And something similar happens for x = 2.

Then we can conclude that this is not a function.

20) Here we have a linear relationship.

Linear relationships are almost always functions, the only case when these are not functions is when the linear equation is something like x = a.

Linear equations can be written as:

y = a*x + b

So x can be any value, and thus y also can be any value.

Then the domain is the set of all real numbers, and the range is the set of all real numbers.

24) Here we have a quadratic function whose arms go down.

This is a function, now let's see the domain and range.

Quadratic functions are written as:

y = a*x^2 + b*x + c

There is no value of x can cause some problem in this equation, then this function works for all values of x, then the domain is the set of all real numbers.

Now, let's look at the graph.

We can see that the function goes up, reaches a maximum, and then goes down again.

Then the range will be the set of all the values smaller than the maximum we can see in the graph, this is:

y ∈ (-∞, 15]

or simply:

y ≤ 15.

30) Here again, we can see that for x = 0 there are two different values of y.

the same happens for x = -1, x = -2, and a lot of other values.

Then this is not a function, because it is mapping values of the domain into different values of the range.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 24 ft wide and 33 ft long. She

qaws [65]

<h3>Answer: 16 ft by 25 ft</h3>

=========================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

The outer dimensions 24 ft and 33 ft shrink down to 24-2x ft and 33-2x ft respectively. This subtraction of 2x is due to subtracting two copies of x per side.

The carpet has area of (24-2x)(33-2x)

Cynthia can afford to buy 400 sq ft of carpet

So we set 400 equal to that previous expression and solve for x

(24-2x)(33-2x) = 400

24(33-2x) - 2x(33-2x) = 400

792-48x - 66x + 4x^2 = 400

4x^2 - 114x + 792 = 400

4x^2 - 114x + 792-400 = 0

4x^2 - 114x + 392 = 0

From here, use the quadratic formula to isolate x.

Plug in a = 4, b = -114, c = 392

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-114)\pm\sqrt{(-114)^2-4(4)(392)}}{2(4)}\\\\x = \frac{114\pm\sqrt{6724}}{8}\\\\x = \frac{114\pm82}{8}\\\\x = \frac{114+82}{8} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{114-82}{8}\\\\x = \frac{196}{8} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{32}{8}\\\\x = 24.5 \ \text{ or } \ x = 4\\\\$

The two possible solutions are x = 24.5 and x = 4

But if x = 24.5, then 24 - 2x = 24 - 2*24.5 = -25 which isn't possible. We cannot have a negative width or negative length for the carpet.

Luckily x = 4 does work since

24 - 2x = 24 - 2*4 = 16

33 - 2x = 33 - 2*4 = 25

Both results are positive.

Therefore, the carpet has dimensions of <u>16 ft by 25 ft</u>

Check: 16*25 = 400, so the answer is confirmed
