The quadrilateral ABCD has area of 58 in2 and diagonal AC = 14.5 in. Find the length of diagonal BD if AC ⊥ BD.

1 answer:

7 0

When the diagonals of a quadrilateral are perpendicular, the area of that quadrilateral is half the product of their lengths.
.. A = (1/2)*d₁*d₂
Substituting the given information, this becomes
.. 58 in² = (1/2)*(14.5 in)*d₂
.. 2*58/14.5 in = d₂ = 8 in

The length of diagonal BD is 8 in.

Yesterday Mike bought 2 gallons of regular gasoline and 3 gallons of premium gasoline at a gas station for $13.60 today he bough

larisa [96]

Answer:

Cost of 1 gallon of Regular gasoline is $2.45 and Cost of 1 gallon of Premium gasoline is $2.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Cost of Regular gasoline be 'x'.

Let the Cost of Premium gasoline be 'y'.

Given:

Amount of regular gasoline bought yesterday = 2 gallons

Amount of premium gasoline bought yesterday = 3 gallons

Total Cost of yesterday = $13.60

Now we know that Total Cost of yesterday is equal to sum of Amount of regular gasoline bought yesterday multiplied by Cost of Regular gasoline and Amount of Premium gasoline bought yesterday multiplied by Cost of premium gasoline.

Framing in equation form we get;

$2x+3y=13.60 \ \ \ \ equation\ 1$

Also Given:

Amount of regular gasoline bought today = 3 gallons

Amount of premium gasoline bought Today = 4 gallons

Total Cost of Today = $18.95

Now we know that Total Cost of Today is equal to sum of Amount of regular gasoline bought Today multiplied by Cost of Regular gasoline and Amount of Premium gasoline bought Today multiplied by Cost of premium gasoline.

Framing in equation form we get;

$3x+4y=18.95 \ \ \ \ equation\ 2$

Now Multiplying equation 1 by 3 we get;

$2x+3y=13.60\\\\3(2x+3y)=13.60\times3\\\\6x+9y= 40.80 \ \ \ \ \ equation\ 3$

Now Multiplying equation 2 by 2 we get;

$3x+4y=18.95\\\\2(3x+4y)=18.95\times2\\\\6x+8y= 37.90 \ \ \ \ \ \ equation\ 4$

Subtracting equation 4 from equation 3 we get;

$(6x+9y)- (6x+8y)= 40.80-37.90\\\\6x+9y-6x-8y= 2.9\\\\y=\$2.90$

Substituting the value of y in equation 1 we get;

$2x+3y=13.60\\\\2x+3\times2.90 =13.60\\\\2x+8.7=13.6\\\\2x=13.6-8.7\\\\2x=4.9\\\\x=\frac{4.9}{2} =\$2.45$

Hence Cost of 1 gallon of Regular gasoline is $2.45 and Cost of 1 gallon of Premium gasoline is $2.90.

To find the inverse, we swap the variables y and x, then solve for the new y.

3a. $y=\frac{3}{x-1}$

Swapping the variables: $x=\frac{3}{y-1}$
Solving for y: $x(y-1)=3 \\ y-1= \frac{3}{x} \\ y=1+\frac{3}{x}$
The domain of this inverse is $x ≠ 0$ .
3b. $y=x^2-1$

Swapping: $x = y^2 - 1$
Solving for y: $y^2 = x + 1 \\ y = \sqrt{x+1}$
The domain of this inverse is $x ≥ -1$ .
3c. $y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-7}{3}}$
Swapping: $x=\sqrt[3]{\frac{y-7}{3}}$
Solving for y: $x^3=\frac{y-7}{3} \\ y-7=3x^3 \\ y=3x^3+7$
The domain of this inverse is all real numbers.
4a. $y=\frac{3}{x-1}$ , $y=1+\frac{3}{x}$
$y=\frac{3}{(1+\frac{3}{x})-1} \\ y=\frac{3}{(\frac{3}{x})} \\ y=x$
$y=1+\frac{3}{(\frac{3}{x-1})} \\ y = 1+(x-1) \\ y = x$

4c. $y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-7}{3}}$ , $y=3x^3+7$
$y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(3x^3+7)-7}{3}} \\ y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3x^3}{3}} \\ y=\sqrt[3]{x^3} \\ y=x$
$y=3(\sqrt[3]{\frac{x-7}{3}})^3+7 \\ y = 3({\frac{x-7}{3}})+7 \\ y = (x-7)+7 \\ y=x$

Question 8 of 10

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

100+50=150

180-150=30

All triangles equal 180 degrees, so if the other angles equal 150 than the third angle equals 30 degrees.
