Mathematics
1 answer:
iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

w = 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure shows two similar right triangles. Similar triangles have proportional corresponding sides.

Write a proportion between triangles' legs:

\dfrac{12}{12+4}=\dfrac{w}{12}\\ \\ \\\dfrac{12}{16}=\dfrac{w}{12}

Cross multiply:

16\cdot w=12\cdot 12\\ \\16w=144\\ \\w=\dfrac{144}{16}\\ \\w=9

A bakery made 26 cherry pies, using 115 cherries for each pie. They threw away 36 cherries that were bad. If they used all the c
Artemon [7]

The bakery start with 2954 cherry

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

A bakery made 26 cherry pies, using 115 cherries for each pie

So they used 115 cherry for each pie

26 cherry pies, 115 cherry per pie

Therefore,

Number of cherries used = 26 x 115 = 2990 cherries used

They threw away 36 cherries that were bad

36 cherry were bad

2990 - 36 = 2954

Thus they start with 2954 cherries

Find expressions for the partial derivatives of the following functions:
nlexa [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: partial derivative is the differentiation of one variable e.g. X while leaving the values of the other variable e.g. Y

These four questions A, B, C and D have different functions separated by commas. I will not assume the commas to be something else like a plus sign.

A. f(x) = g'(x).k(y) , g'(x) + h(y)

f(y) = k'(y).g(x) , g(x) + h'(y)

B. f(x) = g'x (x+y)

f(y) = g'y (x+y) , h'y (y+z)

f(z) = h'z (y+z)

C. f(x) = f'x (xy) , f'x (zx)

f(y) = f'y (xy) , f'y (yz)

f(z) = f'z (yz) , f'z (zx)

D. f(x) = f'x (x) , g'(x) , h'x (x,y)

f(y) = h'x (x,y)

These are the partial derivative expressions for each variable in each function. You will need to pay a lot of attention to understand:

* while differentiating X alone, functions in Y which are separated by commas from the functions in X, are ignored totally because they are different questions

* In functions where X added to Y is in a bracket e.g. (x+y), to find the derivative of X, Y isn't thrown away because they are joined (by a plus sign) the derivative of X alone in this case would be f'x (x+y)

* f(x), just like g(x), simply means/represents a function in X hence f'(x) means the differentiation of all X-terms in that function

Find the perimeter of the quadrilateral that has vertices at (8,13), (5,-18), (-6,-6), and (-2,-5).
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

72.14 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A(8,13), B(5,-18),C(-6,-6) and D(-2,-5)

Apply the distance formula as;

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Finding the lengths of the segments

For AB

AB=\sqrt{(5-8)^2+(-18-13)^2} =\sqrt{(-3^2)+(-31^2)} =\sqrt{970} =31.14

For BC

BC=\sqrt{(-6-5)^2+(-6--18)^2} =\sqrt{(-11^2)+12^2} =\sqrt{265} =16.28

For CD

CD=\sqrt{(-2--6)^2+(-5--6)^2} =\sqrt{4^2+1^2} =\sqrt{16+1} =\sqrt{17} =4.12

For DA

DA=\sqrt{(8--2)^2+(13--5)^2} =\sqrt{10^2+18^2} =\sqrt{424} =20.6

Finding the perimeter will be;

31.14+16.28+4.12+20.6=72.14 units
