4x - 3 < 17. Solve for x.

Andru [333]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 17 by 3, and then you get 14, multiply 4 times 3 2/3 which gives you 14 with a fraction 2/3 so the answer is c

During which time period does Landon's elevation change the fastest? Explain how you know?

bogdanovich [222]

<h3>1. How many inches per minute does London's elevation change between 4 minutes and 8 minutes. </h3>

The question actually asks for the slope of the line that stands for the points $(4,3) \ and \ (8,6)$ why? because the questions tells us that London's elevation changes between 4 minutes and 8 minutes here. Hence, to find the slope of this line we have to use the following formula:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ \\ But: \\ \\ P(x_{1},y_{1})=P(4,3) \\ P(x_{2},y_{2})=P(8,6)$

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ \\ But: \\ \\ P(x_{1},y_{1})=P(4,3) \\ P(x_{2},y_{2})=P(8,6) \\ \\ So: \\ \\ m=\frac{6-3}{8-4}=0.75in/min$

<em>So London's elevation changes 0.75 inches per minute</em>

<h3>2. During which time period does London's elevation change the fastest?</h3>

The greater the absolute value of the slope of the line the faster London's elevation changes. Since this is a Piecewise function, we must analyze each period.

FIRST:

→ Between 0 minutes and 4 minutes the function is constant, so there is no any change here.

→ Between 10 minutes and 14 minutes the function is constant, so there is no any change here.

→ Between 18 minutes and 22 minutes the function is constant, so there is no any change here.

So the solution is not in these parts of the function.

SECOND:

→ Between 4 minutes and 10 minutes the function has a positive slope, so there is change here.

In the previous item we calculated the slope between 4 and 8 minutes that is the same slope between 4 and 8 minutes and equals 0.75.

→ Between 14 minutes and 18 minutes the function has a positive slope, so there is change here.

Let's take two points here, say, $(16,5) \ and \ (18,3)$

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ \\ But: \\ \\ P(x_{1},y_{1})=P(16,5) \\ P(x_{2},y_{2})=P(18,3) \\ \\ So: \\ \\ m=\frac{3-5}{18-16}=-1 in/min$

As you can see, the absolute value here is 1 that is greater than 0.75.

<em>In conclusion, London's elevation changes the fastest between 14 and 18 minutes</em>

Theorem: The segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half its length. A two-c

natali 33 [55]

Answer: By the slope formula.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ABC is a triangle (shown below),

In which A≡(6,8), B≡(2,2) and C≡(8,4)

And, D and E are the mid points of the line segments AB and BC respectively.

Prove: DE║AC and DE = AC/2

Proof:

Since, And, D and E are the mid points of the line segments AB and BC respectively.

Therefore, By mid point theorem,

coordinate of D are $(\frac{2+6}{2} , \frac{2+8}{2} ) = (\frac{8}{2} , \frac{10}{2} )= (4,5)$

Coordinate of E are $(\frac{2+8}{2} , \frac{2+4}{2} ) = (\frac{10}{2} , \frac{6}{2} )= (5,3)$

By the distance formula,

$DE=\sqrt{(5-4)^2+(3-5)^2}=\sqrt{5}$

$AC=\sqrt{(8-6)^2+(4-8)^2}=2\sqrt{5}$

By the slope formula,

Slope of AC = $\frac{4-8}{8-6} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2$

Slope of DE = $\frac{3-5}{5-4} = \frac{-2}{1} = -2$

Statement Reason

1. The coordinate of D are (4,5) and 1. By the midpoint formula

the coordinate of E are (5,3)

2. The length of DE = √5 2. By the Distance formula

The length AC = 2√5 ⇒ Segment DE

is half the length of segment AC

3. The slope of DE = -2 and the 3. By the slope formula

slope of AC = -2

4. DE║AC 4. Slopes of parallel lines are equal
