Answer:

In brief, apply the pythagorean theorem to show that the distance between the point (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and the origin is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorem can give the distance between two points on a plane if their coordinates are known.

A point is on a circle if its distance from the center of the circle is the same as the radius of the circle.

On a cartesian plane, the unit circle is a circle  

  • centered at the origin (0,0)
  • with radius 1.

Therefore, to show that the point (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) is on the unit circle, show that the distance between (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and (0,0) equals to 1.

What's the distance between (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and (0,0)?

\displaystyle \sqrt{\left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-0}\right)^{2} + \left(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}-0\right)^{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{2}}= \sqrt{1}= 1.

By the pythagorean theorem, the distance between (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) and the center of the unit circle, (0,0), is the same as the radius of the unit circle, 1. As a result, the point (\sqrt{2}/2,\sqrt{2}/2) is on the unit circle.

Which is the graph of the function f(x) = one-halfx2 + 2x – 6?
guapka [62]

Answer:

1/2 x^2 + 2x - 6 = 0

(1/2 x - 1)(x + 6) = 0

zeroes are 2 and -6

so the graph intersects x axis at -6 and 2  

The only one to do that is diagram A

It takes 12 hours for 7 men to paint a room.
dangina [55]

28 men are needed to paint the room in 3 hours

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that it takes 12 hours for 7 men to paint a room

We are asked to find number of men required to paint the room in 3 hours

Recognize, "paint the room" is 1 task. One job.

7 men -------- 12 hours ------ 1 job

(7/7) = 1 men ------- 12 x 7 (84)  ------- same 1 job

The one men is rate is 84 hours to do the job

We can express this as 1/84 jobs per hour, the one-person rate

Now lets find how many men needed to paint the room in 3 hours

Let the required number of men for 3 hours be "a"

The rates of each person is simply additive.

a \times \frac{1}{84} \times 3 = 1

corresponds to rate x hours = jobs and "a" is a variable for how many men

a \times \frac{1}{28} = 28

Thus 28 men are needed to paint the room in 3 hours

LAST QUESTION ON MY TOPIC!!! PLEASE
nataly862011 [7]

Givens

<em><u>Slower car</u></em>

r = r

t = 12 hours

d = ?

<em><u>Faster car</u></em>

r = r + 20

t = 8 hours

d = ?

It doesn't matter what the exact distance is. You just have to know that the 2 distances are equal ie going to the mountains from his home is the same distance as going from the mountains to his home.

d = r * t

r * 12 hours = (r + 20)* 8 hours.   Remove the brackets on the right

r*12 = 8r + 20*8

r*12 = 8*r + 160

r*12 - 8r = 8r - 8r + 160

4r = 160

r = 40 miles / hour

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

Slower Ride determines the distance.

d = r*t

d = 40 * 12

d = 480

Check

Use the faster rate (r + 20) = 40 + 20 = 60 mph

60 * 8 = 480. Both distances work out to be the same.
