Aziza has a triangle with two sides measuring 11 in. and 15 in. She claims that the third side can be any length as long as it i

s greater than 4 in. Which statement about Aziza’s claim is correct?

Answer:

Aziza’s claim is incomplete. The third side must be between 4 in. and 26 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the Triangle Inequality Theorem, saying that the sum of lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. With this we can develop two inequalities:

11 + 15 > x

26 > x

rewrite this as x < 26

11 + x > 15

x > 15 - 11   Subtract 11 from both sides

x > 4

Therefore, the third side can be anywhere greater than 4 inches and less than and less than 26 inches.

4 <  x < 26

A pair of perpendicular lines intersect at the point (5,9). Write
maw [93]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 2) is y = -9·x/5 + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the point of intersection of the two lines = (5, 9)

The coordinates of a point on one of the two lines, line 1 = (-4, 4)

The slope of a line perpendicular to another line with slope, m = -1/m

Therefore, we have;

The slope, m₁, of the line 1 with the known point = (9 - 4)/(5 - (-4)) = 5/9

Therefore, the slope, m₂, of the line 2 perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 4) = -9/5

The equation of the line 2 is given as follows;

y - 9 = -9/5×(x - 5)

y - 9 = -9·x/5 + 9

y =  -9·x/5 + 9 + 9

y = -9·x/5 + 18

Therefore, the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 2) is y = -9·x/5 + 18.

What is the value of x?<br> Enter your answer in the box.<br> units
sineoko [7]

Answer:

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides of the triangle, then the line divides these two sides proportionally.

Then x/(x +10) = 42/(42 +15)

x(57) = 42(x + 10)

57x = 42x + 420

15x = 420

x = 28

Enter an equation for the function that includes the points.Give your answer in a(b)x. In the event that a=1 , give your answer
Andrews [41]

Answer:

f(x) = \frac{24}{25} * \frac{5}{6}^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x_1,y_1) = (2,\frac{2}{3})

(x_2,y_2) = (3,\frac{5}{9})

Required

Write the equation of the function f(x) = ab^x

Express the function as:

y = ab^x

In: (x_1,y_1) = (2,\frac{2}{3})

y = ab^x

\frac{2}{3} = a * b^2 --- (1)

In (x_2,y_2) = (3,\frac{5}{9})

y = ab^x

\frac{5}{9} = a * b^3 --- (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

\frac{5}{9}/\frac{2}{3} = \frac{a*b^3}{a*b^2}

\frac{5}{9}/\frac{2}{3} = b

\frac{5}{9}*\frac{3}{2} = b

\frac{5}{3}*\frac{1}{2} = b

\frac{5}{6} = b

b = \frac{5}{6}

Substitute 5/6 for b in (1)

\frac{2}{3} = a * b^2

\frac{2}{3} = a * \frac{5}{6}^2

\frac{2}{3} = a * \frac{25}{36}

a = \frac{2}{3} * \frac{36}{25}

a = \frac{2}{1} * \frac{12}{25}

a = \frac{24}{25}

The function: f(x) = ab^x

f(x) = \frac{24}{25} * \frac{5}{6}^x

Explain how to use the regression calculator to make a reasonable prediction given a data table
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Given data, first determine which is the independent variable, x, and which is the dependent variable, y. Enter the data pairs into the regression calculator. Substitute the value for one variable into the equation for the regression line produced by the calculator, and then predict the value of the other variable.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Enter data into the regression calculator.
  2. Determine the regression equation.
  3. Substitute the correct value for x or y into the equation.
  4. Simplify to find the value of the other variable.
