W=3L
W+W+L+L=72
Replace W with 3L: 3L+3L+L+L=72
8L=72
L=9
W=27

The center of a circle is (4, 6), and an endpoint of a diameter is (2, 5). What is the other endpoint of the diameter?

valentinak56 [21]

Consider this option:
1. if the point (4;6) is the centre of the circle and the point (2;5) is the first endpoint of its diameter, then point (4;6) is the middle point of the diameter (it means that is the middle between the 1st and the 2d endpoints of diameter).
2. using the property described above:
for x of the 2d endpoint of the diameter: x=4*2-2=6;
for y of the 2d endpoint of the diameter: y=6*2-5=7.

answer: (6;7)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4) x² - 14x + 48

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is -14x and their product is 48x².

The two numbers are - 6x and - 8x. Therefore,

x² - 6x - 8x + 48

x(x - 6) - 8(x - 6)

(x - 8)(x - 6)

5) 2x² + 21x - 11

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 21x and their product is - 22x².

The two numbers are 22x and - x. Therefore,

2x² + 22x - x - 11

2x(x + 11) - 1(x + 11)

(2x - 1)(x + 11)

6) 5a² - 125

5 is a common factor. So we would factorize 5. It becomes

5(a² - 25)

Simplifying further, it becomes

5(a + 5)(a - 5)

Rachel tutors English. for each hour that she tutors, she earns 50 dollars. Let E be her earnings (in dollars) after tutoring fo

n200080 [17]

Answer:

a. E = 50 H b. 950 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Since Rachel tutors English for 50 dollars for each hours, her rate is 50 dollar per hour. If she tutors for time, H hours, Her earning E = rate × time = 50 × H

E = 50H.

b. If Rachel's earnings after tutoring for 19 hours is gotten by substituting H = 19 into the equation for the earnings, E.

So, E = 50H

E = 50 × 19

E = 950 dollars.

So, Rachel's earnings after 19 hours is 950 dollars.

Consider two circular swimming pools. Pool A has a radius of 48 feet, and Pool B has a diameter of 29.46 meters. Complete the de

Ber [7]

Answer: pool B has a greater circumference.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the circumference if a circle is expressed as

Circumference = 2πr

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

Pool A has a radius of 48 feet.

1 foot ≈ 0.305 meters

48 feet = 48 × 0.305 = 14.64 meters

The circumference of pool A is

2 × 3.14 × 14.64 = 91.94 meters

Pool B has a diameter of 29.46 meters. Radius = diameter/2

Radius of pool B = 29.46/2 = 14.73 meters

The circumference of pool B is

2 × 3.14 × 14.73 = 92.5 meters

Therefore, pool B has a greater circumference.
