Answer:

15 or -23

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you probably already turned this in but in case you haven't:

ST = 19 means that line segment ST is 19 units long. If we know that S is at -4, then T has to be 19 units away from -4, right?

So there's two directions we could go.

Add 19 to -4 to get 15, so T could be at 15. (If there's a line drawn between -4 and 15, it would be 19 units long.)

But the line could go left, towards negative infinity, too. So if we subtract 19 from -4, we'd get -23. T could also be at -23. (If there's a line drawn between -4 and -23, it would also be 19 units long. There's no such thing as a negative length.)

What is the dimension of a rectangle if the perimeter is 198

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Length = 49.5 unit and width = 49.5 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as , Perimeter of rectangle = 198 unit

so ,as Perimeter of rectangle = 2× ( Length + width)

Or, 198 = 2 × (Length + width)

Or, $\frac{198}{2}$ = length + width

So, length + width = 99 unit

Now to make area maximum

Length × width = maximum

Or, (99 - width ) × width = maximum

99 Width - width² = maximum Let width = W

Now differentiate both side with respect to W

D(99W - W²) $\frac{D(99w - w^2)}{Dw}$ = 0 as, constant diff is 0

So, 99 - 2w = 0

Or, w = $\frac{99}{2}$

Or, w = 49.5 unit and L = 99- 4905 = 49.5 unit Answer

When the stranger came into the forest, 37 percent of the people ran to hide. If 2520 refused to hide, how many people lived in

STALIN [3.7K]

Is 37% Ran to hide then 63% refuse to hide

63/2520= 37/X
63x= 93240
Divide by 63
X= 1480 Ran to hide
2520+1480=4,000 total --------------
4,000 people lived in the forest

Definition of a Line: A line is 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set up equation

40° + (2x + 30)° + 40° = 180°

Step 2: Solve for x

Combine like terms: 2x + 110 = 180
Subtract 110 on both sides: 2x = 70
Divide 2 on both sides: x = 35

Describe the transformation from triangle DEF to triangle D′E′F′ in the figure. Question 17 options:

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

C) Reflection about the origin

Step-by-step explanation:

DE points to the right and slightly down. D'E' points to the left and slightly up. The segments are parallel, not perpendicular, so represent a rotation of 180°, not 90°. If the figure were subject only to translation, these segments would point in the same direction.

The transformation is a reflection about the origin (C). (This is equivalent to a rotation of 180°.)
