Mathematics

Ray Of Light [21]2 years ago

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle O is the centroid.

Now, we know that the centroid divides the medians in the 2 : 1 ratio that means the distance from the centroid to the vertex and the distance from the centroid to the opposite side remains in 2 : 1 ratio.

So, from the given diagram we can write

$\frac{3x}{2x - 7} = \frac{2}{1}$

⇒ 3x = 4x - 14

⇒ x = 14 (Answer)

Genelle is paid $1,122.38 semimonthly. What is her average monthly net or take home pay ?

sveta [45]

Answer: $2244.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, semimonthly means that she is paid the amount of $1,122.38 twice a month. I am making the assumption that taxes have already been taken out of this amount, and the amount listed above is how much she will take home. I then multiplied $1,122.38 × 2 which equaled $2244.76. This is how much Genelle will take home monthly.

find the centre and radius of the following Cycles 9 x square + 9 y square +27 x + 12 y + 19 equals 0

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Radius: $r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}$

$Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0$

Solving (a): The radius of the circle

First, we express the equation as:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

Where

$r = radius$

$(h,k) =center$

So, we have:

$9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0$

Divide through by 9

$x^2 + y^2 + 3x + \frac{12}{9}y + \frac{19}{9} = 0$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 + 3x + y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y =- \frac{19}{9}$

Group the expression into 2

$[x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y] =- \frac{19}{9}$

$[x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}$

Next, we complete the square on each group.

For $[x^2 + 3x]$

1: Divide the $coefficient\ of\ x\ by\ 2$

2: Take the $square\ of\ the\ division$

3: Add this $square\ to\ both\ sides\ of\ the\ equation.$

So, we have:

$[x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}$

$[x^2 + 3x + (\frac{3}{2})^2] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2$

Factorize

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2$

Apply the same to y

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y +(\frac{4}{6})^2 ] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ \frac{9}{4} +\frac{16}{36}$

Add the fractions

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{-19 * 4 + 9 * 9 + 16 * 1}{36}$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{21}{36}$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

Recall that:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

By comparison:

$r^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

Take square roots of both sides

$r =\sqrt{\frac{7}{12}}$

Split

$r =\frac{\sqrt 7}{\sqrt 12}$

Rationalize

$r =\frac{\sqrt 7*\sqrt 12}{\sqrt 12*\sqrt 12}$

$r =\frac{\sqrt {84}}{12}$

$r =\frac{\sqrt {4*21}}{12}$

$r =\frac{2\sqrt {21}}{12}$

$r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}$

Solving (b): The center

Recall that:

$(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2$

Where

$r = radius$

$(h,k) =center$

From:

$[x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}$

$-h = \frac{3}{2}$ and $-k = \frac{2}{3}$

Solve for h and k

$h = -\frac{3}{2}$ and $k = -\frac{2}{3}$

Hence, the center is:

$Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})$
