Answer:

The x intercept would be -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get your numbers into slope intercept form, y = mx + b. This would be y = -1/2x - 2. Then, replace y for 0, which would be 0 = -1/2x - 2. Add 2 on both sides to get 2 = -1/2x. then, multiply each side by -2, you end up with -4 = x, which means -4 is your x intercept.

) A coin collection consisting of pennies, dimes, and quarters totals 45 coins. The number of
Sloan [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7.14

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p, d, q represent the numbers of pennies, dimes, and quarters in the collection, respectively.

  p + d + q = 45 . . . . . . . . there are 45 coins in the collection

  2p +5 = q . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 more than twice the number of pennies

  p + 4 = d . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 more than the number of pennies

Substituting the last two equations into the first gives ...

  p +(p +4) +(2p +5) = 45

  4p = 36 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 9

  p = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

  d = 9 +4 = 13

  q = 2(9) +5 = 23

The value of the collection is ...

  23(0.25) +13(0.10) +9(0.01) = 5.75 +1.30 +0.09 = 7.14

The coin collection is worth $7.14.

You are filling a 5-L fish tank using a 259-ml container. How many full containers are required to fill the fish tank?
slega [8]
It would take 19.31 full containers to fill the fish tank.
There is 1000 ml in a L making it 5000 ml needed to fill the tank.
Divide the 5000 ml by 259 ml to get your answer.

Suppose triangle ABC has vertices at A(1, 0), B(10, 0), and C(2, 6). After a 60° counterclockwise rotation about the origin, ver
Artemon [7]
Check the picture attached.

Let OB be the radius of circle with center O.

Let B' be the image of B after the described rotation

OB and OB' are sides of the equilateral triangle OBB'.

The x coordinate of B' is the midpoint of OB, that is 5.

In the right triangle B', point (5, 0) and B:

Distance point (5, 0) to B is 5
|B'B|=|OB|=10

so by the pythagorean theorem:

a= \sqrt{ 10^{2} - 5^{2} } = \sqrt{ 2^{2} *5^{2} - 5^{2} }= \sqrt{5^{2}(4-1)}=5 \sqrt{3} units



Answer: 5 \sqrt{3}

Match the equations with their solutions over the interval [0, 2π].
nignag [31]

I solved this using a scientific calculator and in radians mode since the given x's is between 0 to 2π. After substitution, the correct pairs are:

cos(x)tan(x) – ½ = 0 → π/6 and 5π/6

cos(π/6)tan(π/6) – ½ = 0

cos(5π/6)tan(5π/6) – ½ = 0

 

sec(x)cot(x) + 2 = 0 → 7π/6 and 11π/6

sec(7π/6)cot(7π/6) + 2 = 0

sec(11π/6)cot(11π/6) + 2 = 0

 

sin(x)cot(x) + 1/sqrt2 = 0 → 3π/4 and 5π/4

sin(3π/4)cot(3π/4) + 1/sqrt2 = 0

sin(5π/4)cot(5π/4) + 1/sqrt2 = 0

 

csc(x)tan(x) – 2 = 0 → π/3 and 5π/3

csc(π/3)tan(π/3) – 2 = 0

csc(5π/3)tan(5π/3) – 2 = 0
