Answer:

The needed equation is:4.25  =( \frac{p+4}{2} )

The amount of Theo's donation  =  $ (4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the amount of Theo's donation  = $ p

Now, his grandfather added $4 to the donation.

So, the New amount  = Theo's amount  +  Grandfather's share

                                   = $p +  $ 4 = $ (4 +p)

Again, the half of the total amount  = (\frac{4 +p}{2})

So, the amount donated to the charity =  (\frac{4 +p}{2})

But according to the question, amount donated = $4.25

\implies 4.25  =( \frac{p+4}{2} )\\\implies 4.25 \times 2  = p+ 4\\\implies  p +  4  = 8.5\\\implies  p =  8.5 - 4  = 4.5\\\implies p = 4.5

Hence, the amount of Theo's donation  = $ p   = $ (4.5)

Solve for b2 in A = 1/2 h ( b1 + b2 ), if A = 16, h = 4, and b1 = 3.
Katarina [22]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

b2 = 5  


Discussion:

A = 1/2 h (b1 + b2) .

Substituting A = 16, h = 4, and b1=3 in the above formula gives:

16 = (1/2) (4)( 3 + b2)    =>         (as (1/2)4 = 2) )

16 = 2 ( 3 + b2)             =>         (divide both sides by 2)

8 = (3 + b2)                   =>         (subtract 3 from both sides)

8-3  = b2                       =>

5     =  b2


Check Area formula:

Does A = 16 = (1/2)(4)(3+5)   ?

Does 16 = (1/2) (4)(8)             ?

Does 16 = (1/2)(32)                ?  Yes it does so our calculation for b2 is correct




Thank you,

MrB

The side of a square measures (2x − 5) units. Part A: What is the expression that represents the area of the square? Show your w
kolbaska11 [484]

A. The area of a square is given as:

<span>A = s^2 </span>

Where s is a measure of a side of a square. s = (2 x – 5) therefore,

<span>A = (2 x – 5)^2                   </span>

Expanding,

A = 4 x^2 – 20 x + 25

 

<span>B. The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable x, in this case 2. Therefore the expression obtained in part A is of 2nd degree.</span>

Furthermore, polynomials are classified according to the number of terms in the expression. There are 3 terms in the expression therefore it is classified as a trinomial.

 

<span>C. The closure property demonstrates that during multiplication or division, the coefficients and power of the variables are affected while during multiplication or division, only the coefficients are affected while the power remain the same.</span>

Find the missing value when given the modulus.
kolbaska11 [484]

Solving the complex number, we get the value of the missing value that is ‘a’ = -6

We  have been given the expression as

          |a – i| = √37          (1)

Which is an expression of complex number. The general expression of complex number is given as

    z = x + iy

 where x is the real part and iy is the imaginary part

To find the modulus value, the formula is given by,

  |z| = |x + iy|

   |z| = √[(real part)2 + (imaginary part)2]

 |z| = √(x2 + y2)

According to the question, |z| = √37         (2)

Equating equation (1) and (2), we get

√(a2 + 1) = √37

(a2 + 1) = 37

a2 = 37 – 1

a2 = 36

a = √36

a = ±6

Now value of a can be 6 or -6. We have been given that the modulus is in third quadrant.

Hence the value will be negative. Therefore, the missing value will be -6.
