Which decimal is equivalent to 3/4 ?

What are the coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices P(−4, −1) , Q(2, 2) , and R(2, −3) ?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$(x,y)=(0,\frac{-2}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Vertices of Triangle $P(x_1,y_1)=(-4,-1)$ , $Q(x_2,y_2)=(2, 2)$ and $R(x_3,y_3)=(2,-3)$

To find : Centroid of a triangle

The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of the three medians of the triangle.

The formula to calculate the centroid of a triangle is:

$(x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

Where, $x_1,x_2,x_3,y_1,y_2,y_3$ are the coordinates of the centroid

Substituting the values in the formula gives us:

$(x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

$(x,y)=(\frac{-4+2+2}{3},\frac{-1+2-3}{3})$

$(x,y)=(\frac{0}{3},\frac{-2}{3})$

Therefore, $(x,y)=(0,\frac{-2}{3})$

QUESTION IN THE ATTACHMENT

eimsori [14]

Answer:

A. The sum of the first 10th term is 100.

B. The sum of the nth term is n²

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Sum of 20th term (S20) = 400

Sum of 40th term (S40) = 1600

Sum of 10th term (S10) =..?

Sum of nth term (Sn) =..?

Recall:

Sn = n/2[2a + (n – 1)d]

Sn is the sum of the nth term.

n is the number of term.

a is the first term.

d is the common difference

We'll begin by calculating the first term and the common difference. This is illustrated below:

Sn = n/2 [2a + (n – 1)d]

S20 = 20/2 [2a + (20 – 1)d]

S20= 10 [2a + 19d]

S20 = 20a + 190d

But:

S20 = 400

400 = 20a + 190d .......(1)

S40 = 40/2 [2a + (40 – 1)d]

S40 = 20 [2a + 39d]

S40 = 40a + 780d

But

S40 = 1600

1600 = 40a + 780d....... (2)

400 = 20a + 190d .......(1)

1600 = 40a + 780d....... (2)

Solve by elimination method

Multiply equation 1 by 40 and multiply equation 2 by 20 as shown below:

40 x equation 1:

40 x (400 = 20a + 190d)

16000 = 800a + 7600. ........ (3)

20 x equation 2:

20 x (1600 = 40a + 780d)

32000 = 800a + 15600d......... (4)

Subtract equation 3 from equation 4

Equation 4 – Equation 3

32000 = 800a + 15600d

– 16000 = 800a + 7600d

16000 = 8000d

Divide both side by 8000

d = 16000/8000

d = 2

Substituting the value of d into equation 1

400 = 20a + 190d

d = 2

400 = 20a + (190 x 2)

400 = 20a + 380

Collect like terms

400 – 380 = 20a

20 = 20a

Divide both side by 20

a = 20/20

a = 1

Therefore,

First term (a) = 1.

Common difference (d) = 2.

A. Determination of the sum of the 10th term.

First term (a) = 1.

Common difference (d) = 2

Number of term (n) = 10

Sum of 10th term (S10) =..?

Sn = n/2 [2a + (n – 1)d]

S10 = 10/2 [2x1 + (10 – 1)2]

S10 = 5 [2 + 9x2]

S10 = 5 [2 + 18]

S10 = 5 x 20

S10 = 100

Therefore, the sum of the first 10th term is 100.

B. Determination of the sum of the nth term.

First term (a) = 1.

Common difference (d) = 2

Sum of nth term (Sn) =..?

Sn = n/2 [2a + (n – 1)d]

Sn = n/2 [2x1 + (n – 1)2]

Sn = n/2 [2 + 2n – 2]

Sn = n/2 [2 – 2 + 2n ]

Sn = n/2 [ 2n ]

Sn = n²

Therefore, the sum of the nth term is n²

What is the measure of <6?

wel

Answer: Choice B. 54degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1 4 5 8 are equal and angles 2 3 6 7 are also equal. These two sets of angles of supplementary(you‘d get 180 by adding them).

so

13x+9=180-(5x+9)

by simplifying the equation youll get

18x+18=180

x=9

so angle 7(and therefore angle 6) equals

5*9+9=54

Please help me thank you so much. Just not sure of my answers

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

An interesting experiment is given. We need to address various questions based on our knowledge of calculus.

Step 2

Part (a)

Time taken for the radius to grow to 2 cm = t1 = r/0.5 = 2/0.5 = 4 hours

Time taken for the radius to become 0 = t2 and the same can be obtained by solving:

r = 2 - √t2 = 0

Hence, t2 = 22 = 4 hours

Hence, the time duration of the entire experiment (from the introduction of the bacteria until its disappearance) = t1 + t2 = 4 + 4 = 8 hours

Step 3

Part (b)

r(t) = 0.5t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 4

and

r(t) = 2 - √(t - 4) for t > 2

Use a separate sheet of paper to solve the system of inequalities by graphing. Use the graph to decide if the point (1, –1) is i

Lena [83]

Answer:

The answer is no though, the point (1,-1) is below both.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the two inequalities are y≤-3x+3 and 3x+8y≥3

With inequalities you have to know a few things. First, when you graph you may have to use non solid lines. for instance, if you had x<5, 5 would not be part of the answer because it is only answers less than 5. so you represent this by making a dashed line that says "you cannot include values on this line". Second, with algebra, if you multiply both sides by a negative it flips the inequality. for instance -y > 54 you would multiply (or divide) by -1 and it would change to y < -54. Third, when graphing an inequality, treat it like an equation and graph the line as if it were said equation(with solid or dashed lines as needed) then, if it is y > f(x) you shade in the section above the line and y < f(x) shades in below. The shaded part is your answer basically. Now lets get into yours.

y≤-3x+3

It is already in the form y = f(x) so grapht he line 3x + 3 with a solid line since it is y is less than or equal to, then shade below that line.

3x+8y≥3

First get it so y is by itself

3x+8y≥3

8y≥3 - 3x

y ≥ 3/8 - 3/8 x

Now grapht his line with a solid line and shade the area above it.

Now, the shaded area below between y ≥ 3/8 - 3/8 x and y≤-3x+3 and the lines are your answer, so you need to check if the point (1, -1) is in this shared shaded area or on one of the lines.

The answer is no though, the point (1,-1) is below both.
