How does a computer drawing program compare to using a compass and straightedge?

1 answer:

5 0

A computer drawing program generally has more steps compared to using a compass and straightedge, although not by much. In a computer drawing program, you can erase an error within a click of a button, compared to having to manually perfect and erase your work when using a compass and straightedge. Also, you immediately have access to an online drawing program as long as you have Internet connection and a computer compared to having to go out and buy a new compass and straightedge. Other than that, they're generally the same despite being different mediums.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Dear user,

Answer to your query is provided below

Probability that the person has high blood pressure given that it is a women = (20/41)

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. Of high blood pressure = 20+21 = 41

Total no. Of women with high pressure = 20

Probability = 20/41

Steve likes to entertain friends at parties with "wire tricks." Suppose he takes a piece of wire 60 inches long and cuts it into

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

a) the length of the wire for the circle = $(\frac{60\pi }{\pi+4}) in$

b)the length of the wire for the square = $(\frac{240}{\pi+4}) in$

c) the smallest possible area = 126.02 in² into two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

If one piece of wire for the square is y; and another piece of wire for circle is (60-y).

Then; we can say; let the side of the square be b

so 4(b)=y

b= $\frac{y}{4}$

Area of the square which is L² can now be said to be;

$A_S=(\frac{y}{4})^2 = \frac{y^2}{16}$

On the otherhand; let the radius (r) of the circle be;

2πr = 60-y

$r = \frac{60-y}{2\pi }$

Area of the circle which is πr² can now be;

$A_C= \pi (\frac{60-y}{2\pi } )^2$

$=( \frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

Total Area (A);

A = $A_S+A_C$

= $\frac{y^2}{16} +(\frac{60-y}{4\pi } )^2$

For the smallest possible area; $\frac{dA}{dy}=0$

∴ $\frac{2y}{16}+\frac{2(60-y)(-1)}{4\pi}=0$

If we divide through with (2) and each entity move to the opposite side; we have:

$\frac{y}{18}=\frac{(60-y)}{2\pi}$

By cross multiplying; we have:

2πy = 480 - 8y

collect like terms

(2π + 8) y = 480

which can be reduced to (π + 4)y = 240 by dividing through with 2

$y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$

∴ since $y= \frac{240}{\pi+4}$ , we can determine for the length of the circle ;

60-y can now be;

= $60-\frac{240}{\pi+4}$

= $\frac{(\pi+4)*60-240}{\pi+40}$

= $\frac{60\pi+240-240}{\pi+4}$

= $(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+4})in$

also, the length of wire for the square (y) ; $y= (\frac{240}{\pi+4})in$

The smallest possible area (A) = $\frac{1}{16} (\frac{240}{\pi+4})^2+(\frac{60\pi}{\pi+y})^2(\frac{1}{4\pi})$

= 126.0223095 in²

≅ 126.02 in² ( to two decimal places)

Calculate the value of 3x + 4y when x = -6 and y = 5.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

x = -6

-18+4y=0 => 4y=18 =>y=18/4=9/2

Y=5

3x+20=0 => x=3x= -20=> x= -20/3
