Answer:

56,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale drawing is a 1/40 ratio so you multiply 5 by 40 and you get 200. You do 200x280 and you get 56,000.

The answer is 200 because 7*40=280 and 5*40=200

Find the value of r in (4, r), (r, 2) so that the slope of the line containing them is −53
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

C) 7

===========================================

Work Shown:

Use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)

-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying

-5r+20 = 6-3r

-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides

20 = 6+2r

20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides

14 = 2r

2r = 14

2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2

r = 7

The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-7)/(7-4)

m = -5/3

The answer is confirmed

Which of the following is an extraneous solution of sqrt 4x + 41 = x+5
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{4x+41}=x+5

on squaring both sides

4x+41=(x+5)^2\\\\4x+41=x^2+10x+25\\\\x^2+6x-16=0\\\\x^2+8x-2x-16=0\\\\x(x+8)-2(x+8)=0\\\\(x-2)(x+8)=0

either x-2=0  or  x+8=0

either x=2 or x=-8

Putting x=2 in original equation, we get

\sqrt{4\times 2+41}=2+5

7=7 hence, it is not an extraneous solution

Putting x=-8 in original equation

\sqrt{4\times (-8)+41}=-8+5

i.e. 3=-3

Hence, x=-8 is an extraneous solution (since it doesn't satisfy the original equation)

I need help with 8x+3-10=-2 (x-2)+3
astraxan [27]

0 ≠ 4. The equation is wrong, and has no true solution.

8x + 3 - 10x = -2(x - 2) + 3

<em><u>Distributive property.</u></em>

8x + 3 - 10x = -2x + 4 + 3

<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>

-2x + 3 = -2x + 7

<em><u>Cancel like terms.</u></em>

<em><u>Subtract 3 from both sides.</u></em>

0  ≠ 4

I need help finding x
BigorU [14]

Answer:

The answer to your question is      x = \sqrt{50}    or x = 5\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem use the Pythagorean theorem because two right triangles are formed.

                    c² = a² + b²

c = 10

a = x

b = x     Because in a square all the sides measure the same.

                    10² = x² + x²

- Simplify

                    100 = 2x²

                    x² = 100/2

                   x² = 50

                    x = \sqrt{50}    or x = 5\sqrt{2}

Pani-rosa [81]
The first thing we must do for this case is to observe the highest relative frequency of the table in the total column.
 For the white car we have:
 Male = 0.11
 Female = 0.20
 Total = 0.31
 The percentage is given by:
 (0.31) * (100) = 31%
 Answer:
 
The percentage that represents the car bought most often is:
 
31%
