Rudy is training for a race. On Monday he ran 2

1 answer:

7 0

Distance ran by Rudy on Monday = 2 km
Percentage of increase in distance of running each day = 15%
Let us assume that the day on which Rudy will run 4 km = x
Then
2 + 0.15x = 4
0.15x = 2
x = 2/0.15
= 13.3
From the above deduction we can conclude that Rudy will run more than 4 km on the 14th day or on Sunday. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

B(7, 2) and C(-1,-9) are the endpoints of a line segment. What is the midpoint M of that line

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

(3,-3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

$Mid-point formula : \frac{ x_{1} +x_{2}} {2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }{2} \\\\x=\frac{7+(-1)}{2} , y= \frac{2+(-9)}{2} \\x= \frac{6}{2} , y= \frac{-7}{2} \\x=3 , y= -3.5$

Midpoint M of the line segment is (3,-3.5)

55. If 3x = 4y, the value of (x + y)^2 : (x - y)^2 is:<br>

ladessa [460]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(x+y)^2:(x-y)^2=49}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x=4y\qquad\text{subtract}\ 3y\ \text{from both sides}\\\\3x-3y=y\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\3(x-y)=y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x-y=\dfrac{y}{3}\qquad(*)\\------------------\\3x=4y\qquad\text{add}\ 3y\ \text{to both sides}\\\\3x+3y=7y\qquad\text{distributive}\\\\3(x+y)=7y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x+y=\dfrac{7y}{3}\qquad(**)\\------------------$

$(x+y)^2:(x-y)^2=\dfrac{(x+y)^2}{(x-y)^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \left(\dfrac{a}{b}\right)^n=\dfrac{a^n}{b^n}\\\\=\left(\dfrac{x+y}{x-y}\right)^2\qquad\text{substitute}\ (*)\ \text{and}\ (**)\\\\=\left(\dfrac{\frac{7y}{3}}{\frac{y}{3}}\right)^2=\left(\dfrac{7y}{3}\cdot\dfrac{3}{y}\right)^2\qquad\text{cancel}\ 3\ \text{and}\ y\\\\=(7)^2=49$
