Does the construction demonstrate how to copy a segment correctly by hand?

Mathematics

Mumz [18]3 years ago

Answer:

  • No, it does not, because the segments do not have the same length.

Explanation:

The segment AB is supposed to be copied.

The correct procedure is:

  1. Put the tip of the compass on the point A
  2. Open the compass till the point B
  3. Without changing the width of the compass, put the tip of the compass on point C.
  4. Draw an arc from C.
  5. Draw a line from C until a point in the arc.
  6. Mark and label the point of intersection as D.
  7. Done.

Doing that, the length of the new segment CD equals the length of the segment AB.

frez [133]
We will use the Pythagorean theorem:
8² + 12² = c² 
64 + 144 = c²
c = √208 ≈ 14.42
14.42 - 12 = 2.42 in
The direct distance between the lizard and the cactus is 2.42 inches.

10(2^×) + 7(3^×) = 6^× + 70​
Mkey [24]

Answer:

x = 2.81 and 2.096

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

10(2^x) + 7(3^x) = 6^x + 70​

This can also be expressed as;

10(2^x) + 7(3^x) = (2*3)^x + 70

10(2^x) + 7(3^x) = 2^x*3^x + 70

Let a  = 2^x and b = 3^x

10a + 7b = ab + 70

10a + 7b - ab = 70

10a-ab + 7b - 70 = 0

a(10-b)+7(b-10) = 0

a(10-b)-7(10-b) = 0

a-7 = 0 and 10-b = 0

a = 7 and b = 10

Since a = 2^x

7 = 2^x

log 7 = log2^x

log7 = xlog2

x = log7/log2

x = 2.81

Similarly

10 = 3^x

log 10 = log 3^x

log 10 = xlog3

x = log 10/log 3

x = 1/0.4771

x = 2.096

Hence the values of x that satisfies the equation are 2.81 and 2.096

2(3 + 4x) = 8x + 6<br> How Many solutions?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Infinite number of solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3 + 4x) = 8x + 6\\6 + 8x = 8x+6\\8x-8x=6-6\\0=0

For any value of x, both equations are equal to each other because both sides are identical

BRAINLIEST TO FIRST CORRECT ANSWER!!
sineoko [7]

Answer:

57\:\mathrm{km}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question implies his truck travels at a constant distance per gallon, we can set up the following proportion to find how much father his truck can go.

Let x represent how much farther his truck can go, in kilometers:

\frac{2}{76}=\frac{1.5}{x}

Cross-multiplying, we get:

2x=76\cdot 1.5,\\x=\frac{76\cdot 1.5}{2}=\boxed{57\:\mathrm{km}}
