Answer:

BC = 23.8

Step-by-step explanation:

See the diagram attached.

Given AC ║ DE and BD = 5, DA = 12 and BE = 7.

We have to find BC.

Since, AC ║ DE, so, Δ ABC and Δ DBE are similar.

If two triangles are similar then the ratio of their corresponding sides remains the same.

Hence, \frac{BD}{BA} = \frac{BE}{BC}

⇒ \frac{5}{12 + 5} = \frac{7}{BC}

⇒ BC = \frac{7 \times 17}{5} = 23.8 (Answer)

Let u = (1, k) and v = (2, 1). Find k such that The distance between u and v is 1 u and v are orthogonal The angle between u and
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:k=1,k=-2,k=8\pm 5\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two vectors

u=1\hat{i}+k\hat{j}

v=2\hat{i}+1\hat{j}

\left ( i\right )Distance between them is given by

|u-v|=\sqrt{\left ( 2-1\right )^2+\left ( 1-k\right )^2}=1

squaring both side

1^{2}+\left ( 1-k\right )^2=1

k^2-2k+1=0

\left ( k-1\right )^2=0

k=1

\left ( ii\right )

angle between u and v is 90 i.e. orthogonal

u\dot v=0

\left ( 1\hat{i}+k\hat{j}\right )\dot \left ( 2\hat{i}+1\hat{j}\right )=0

2+k=0

k=-2

\left ( iii\right )

angle between u & v is \frac{\pi }{3}

u\dot v=|u||v|cos\left (\frac{\pi }{3}\right )

|u|=\sqrt{1^2+k^2}

|v|=\sqrt{2^2+1^2}

2+k=\left ( \sqrt{1+k^2}\right )\left ( \sqrt{5}\right )cos\left ( \frac{\pi }{3}\right )

\left ( 4+2\right )^2=\left ( 1+k^2\right )5

k^2-16k-11=0

k=8\pm 5\sqrt{3}

Describe how to transform the graph of f(x) = x² to obtain
lord [1]

Answer:

The functions given are:

f(x) = x²

g(x) = f(-4x-3) + 1

First, find f(-4x-3):

f(x) = x²

f(-4x-3) = (-4x-3)²

Find g(x):

g(x) = f(-4x-3) + 1

g(x) = (-4x-3)² + 1

g(x) = (-1)² (4x+3)² + 1

g(x) = (4x+3)² + 1

First take

y = (x)²

Compress the graph along x axis by multiplying x with 4

y = (4x)²

Shift the graph left by 0.75 units, by adding 3 to x term.

y = (4x+3)²

Shift the graph up by 1 unit by adding 1 to the total terms.

y = (4x+3)² +1

If a and b are any two real numbers, explain how you calculate the difference a - b. Be sure to include the following in your ex
Tamiku [17]
- Subtraction can be thought of as the inverse operation of addition, OR as addition itself, if you look at it as adding a negative number.

- The number line allows us to interpret subtraction (or addition of a negative) geometrically; we can view it as a movement to the left on the number line with a distance equal to the number being subtracted.

- Lastly, the value of any expression a - b (where a and b are real numbers) is determined by the relative sizes of the numbers. If a > b, then a - b > 0 (a positive result). If b > a, then a - b < 0 (a negative result.
