Plzzz someone help me Roger wants to build a bookend by combining three pieces of wood into the shape of a right triangle. The s

hortest piece of wood is to be 3 inches long. The next shortest piece of wood is to be x inches long. Write an expression in terms of x that models the length, in inches, of the longest piece of wood.

Find the coordinates of the circumcenter of triangle ABC with vertices A(1,4) B(1,2) and C(6,2)
Ray Of Light [21]
<span>(3.5, 3) is the circumcenter of triangle ABC. The circumcenter of a triangle is the intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of each side. All three of these perpendicular bisectors will intersect at the same point. So you have a nice self check to make sure your math is correct. Now let's calculate the equation for these bisectors. Line segment AB: Slope (4-2)/(1-1) = 2/0 = infinity. This line segment is perfectly vertical. So the bisector will be perfectly horizontal, and will pass through ((1+1)/2, (4+2)/2) = (2/2, 6/2) = (1,3). So the equation for this perpendicular bisector is y = 3. Line segment BC (2-2)/(6-1) = 0/5 = 0 This line segment is perfectly horizontal. So the bisector will be perfectly vertical, and will pass through ((1+6)/2,(2+2)/2) = (7/2, 4/2) = (3.5, 2) So the equation for this perpendicular bisector is x=3.5 So those two bisectors will intersect at point (3.5,3) which is the circumcenter of triangle ABC. Now let's do a cross check to make sure that's correct. Line segment AC Slope = (4-2)/(1-6) = 2/-5 = -2/5 The perpendicular will have slope 5/2 = 2.5. So the equation is of the form y = 2.5*x + b And will pass through the point ((1+6)/2, (4+2)/2) = (7/2, 6/2) = (3.5, 3) Plug in those coordinates and calculate b. y = 2.5x + b 3 = 2.5*3.5 + b 3 = 8.75 + b -5.75 = b So the equation for the 3rd bisector is y = 2.5x - 5.75 Now let's check if the intersection with this line against the other 2 works. Determining intersection between bisector of AC and AB y = 2.5x - 5.75 y = 3 3 = 2.5x - 5.75 8.75 = 2.5x 3.5 = x And we get the correct value. Now to check AC and BC y = 2.5x - 5.75 x = 3.5 y = 2.5*3.5 - 5.75 y = 8.75 - 5.75 y = 3 And we still get the correct intersection.</span>

Which function describes the arithmetic sequence shown?<br><br> 1, 7, 13, 19, 25, 31, ...
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

a(n) = a(1) + 6(n -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference here is 6.  1 + 6 = 7; 13 + 6 = 19; and so on.

Thus, the function in question is a(n) = a(1) + 6(n -1).

Evalute 2√72 divided by √8+ √2. I need help asap!!!<br><br><br> :( I will mark brainliest pls!!
Ghella [55]

Answer:

It's 4

Step-by-step explanation:

* / = square root

You simply 2/72 which is 12/2, then simplify /8 which is 2/2.

You combine 2/2 and /2 which is 3/2.

The equation should be 12/2 over 3/2 so you simplify it which will give you 4.

(By simplifying 12/2 over 3/2, you cross out /2 and convert 12 over 3 into a whole number)

If f(x) = 16x – 30 and g(x) = 14x – 6, for which value of x does (f – g)(x) = 0?
andre [41]

The value of the x will be 12. The value of the x is obtained from the condition,(f – g)(x) = 0

<h3>What exactly is a function?</h3>

A function is a statement, rule, or law that specifies the connection between two variables. Functions are common in mathematics and are required for the formulation of physical connections.

Given function;

f(x) = 16x – 30

g(x) = 14x – 6

⇒(f – g)(x) = 0

⇒(16x – 30)-(14x – 6)=0

⇒16x-30-14x+6=0

⇒2x-24=0

⇒x=24/2

⇒x=12

Hence, the value of the x will be 12.
