The Quotient would be 1012 so I would just put 1000 if your supposed to estimate.

So to estimate here, I would set 29,376 to 29,000 divided by 29, which would make things a lot easier.

29,000/29 = 1,000

So your estimate is about 1,000.

What transformations are represented by the following coordinate graphing? (geometry)

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

(a,b) → (a,-b) : Reflection about x axis.

(a,b) → (a, b+5) : Translation of the point by 5 units up.

(a,b) → (b,-a) : Rotation by 90 degree clockwise.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The transformation of points are given as:

(a,b) → (a,-b)

(a,b) → (a, b+5)

(a,b) → (b,-a)

Now, let us consider each transformation one by one.

(1) (a,b) → (a,-b)

Here, the order of the coordinates has not changed. But, the y coordinate of the point has changed. The y coordinate was 'b' and it has changed only its sign but not value. So, it is a transformation related to reflection.

In reflection, only the sign changes. Since, the 'y' coordinate sing is reversed, so, it is a reflection about x axis.

(2) (a,b) → (a, b+5)

Here, the 'y' coordinate of the point has changed. The change is from 'b' to 'b+5'. So, 5 is added to the y coordinate. As per transformation rules, if a positive number 'C' is added to the y coordinate, then the point shifts vertically up by 'C' units. Hence, there is a translation of 5 units up here.

(3) (a,b) → (b,-a)

Here, the 'x' and 'y' coordinates interchange their values and also the new y coordinate has its sign reversed. This happens in rotation.

We know that, (x, y) → (y, –x) is true when there is rotation by 90 degree clockwise.

So, the point (a,b) → (b,-a) is rotated by 90 degree clockwise.

Point G bisects the line segment FH. The length of FG is 16 less than 3 times the length of GH. What is the length of FH?

charle [14.2K]

Answer: FH = 16

Concept:

Bisect means to cut or divide something into two equal parts.

In mathematics, usually bisect means cutting a segment or an angle.

If you are still confused, you may refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation or tell me.

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

FG is 16 less than 3 times the length of GH

Let x be the length of GH

<u>Given expression</u>

FG = GH

<u>Set equation</u>

3x - 16 = x

<u>Add 16 on both sides</u>

3x - 16 + 16 = x + 16

3x = x + 16

<u>Subtract x on both sides</u>

3x - x = x + 16 - x

2x = 16

<u>Divide 2 on both sides</u>

2x / 2 = 16 / 2

x=8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Concept:

In order to find the length of FH, we need to know the idea of the segment addition postulate.

The Segment Addition Postulate states that given 2 points A and C, a third point B lies on the line segment AC if and only if the distances between the points satisfy the equation AB + BC = AC.

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

FG = GH = x

x = 8

<u>Given expression deducted from the segment addition postulate</u>

FH = FG + GH

<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>

FH = x + x

FH = 8 + 8

$\boxed {FH=16}$

Hope this helps!! :)

How do you find 2a+b?

ser-zykov [4K]

A = 2/-3 which is -0.6666...
and b= 1/4.
so what you want to do is -0.66666666666 * 2 = -1.33333333333
then you want to do -1.33333333333 + .24 = (-1.093333333) is your answer
