Answer:

The distance is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you want distance, the best approach is to subtract.

My advice when you're dealing with a number line, and a negative and a positive number, is to subtract the negative from the positive, so that you get a positive distance.

Answer:

The distance is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you want distance, the best approach is to subtract.

My advice when you're dealing with a number line, and a negative and a positive number, is to subtract the negative from the positive, so that you get a positive distance.

Therefore:

2 - ( - 3) = 2 + 3 = 5

Solve the following inequality for d. Write your answer in simplest form.
suter [353]

Answer:

d>67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

−50−(−9d+7)>−d+10+9d

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

9d−57>8d+10

Step 2: Subtract 8d from both sides.

9d−57−8d>8d+10−8d

d−57>10

Step 3: Add 57 to both sides.

d−57+57>10+57

d>67

Identify the area of segment MNO to the nearest hundredth. HELP PLEASE!! I don't understand it!
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

  13.98 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't understand it, either.

Point N is part of a "segment" that above and to the right of chord MO. It is the sum of the areas of 3/4 of the circle and a right triangle with 7-inch sides. The larger segment MO to the upper right of chord MO has an area of about 139.95 in², which <u>is not</u> an answer choice.

__

The remaining segment, to the lower left of chord MO does not seem to have anything to do with point N. However, its area is 13.98 in², which <u>is</u> an answer choice. Therefore, we think the question is about this segment, and we wonder why it is called MNO.

The area of a segment is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)(θ -sin(θ))r² . . . . . . where θ is the central angle in radians.

Here, we have θ = π/2, r = 7 in, so we can compute the area of the smaller segment MO as ...

  A = (1/2)(π/2 -sin(π/2))(7 in)² = 24.5(π/2 -1) in² ≈ 13.9845 in²

Rounded to hundredths, this is ...

  ≈ 13.98 in²

Let's start with the drawing. (See the drawing at the bottom of this answer.)

Draw a vertical segment.
At the bottom endpoint, draw a horizontal segment to the right.
The angle at the bottom left is a right angle.
So far this should look like an "L" shape.
The vertical segment is the wall, and the horizontal segment is the ground.

Now draw a segment that connects the right endpoint of the horizontal segment and the top endpoint of the vertical segment. Now you have a right triangle. The diagonal segment represents the ladder. The diagonal segment is the hypotenuse. Label the diagonal segment, the hypotenuse, 12 ft.
Label the vertical segment, the wall, 11.8 ft.

The angle at the bottom right is A. It is the angle the ladder makes with the ground. This angle cannot be greater than 75 degrees.

Now we use trigonometry to find the measure of angle A.

For this right triangle, and its angle A, you have a hypotenuse that measures 12 ft, and an opposite leg that measures 11.8 ft.
We need to find angle A.
The trig ratio that relates the opposite leg and the hypotenuse is the sine.

\sin A = \dfrac{opp}{hyp}

\sin A = \dfrac{11.8}{12}

\sin A = 0.98333

Since the sine of angle A equals 0.98333, we use the inverse sine function to find the measure of angle A.

A = \sin^{-1} 0.98333

A = 79.5^\circ

Answer:
The angle the ladder makes with the ground is 79.5 degrees which is greater than 75 degrees, so the ladder it will be unsafe in this position.
