Given: △ACM, m∠C=90°, CP ⊥ AM

larisa86 [58]

Answer: The answer is $3\dfrac{4}{7}.$

Step-by-step explanation: Given in the question that ΔAM is a right-angled triangle, where ∠C = 90°, CP ⊥ AM, AC : CM = 3 : 4 and MP - AP = 1. We are to find AM.

Let, AC = 3x and CM = 4x.

In the right-angled triangle ACM, we have

$AM^2=AC^2+CM^2=(3x)^2+(4x)^2=9x^2+16x^2=25x^2\\\\\Rightarrow AM=5x.$

Now,

$AM=AP+PM=AP+(AP+1)\\\\\Rightarrow 2AP=AM-1\\\\\Rightarrow 2AP=5x-1.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(A)$

Now, since CP ⊥ AM, so ΔACP and ΔMCP are both right-angled triangles.

So,

$CP^2=AC^2-AP^2=CM^2-MP^2\\\\\Rightarrow (3x)^2-AP^2=(4x)^2-(AP+1)^2\\\\\Rightarrow 9x^2-AP^2=16x^2-AP^2-2AP-1\\\\\Rightarrow 2AP=7x^2-1.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(B)$

Comparing equations (A) and (B), we have

$5x-1=7x^2-1\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=7x^2\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{5}{7},~\textup{since }x\neq 0.$

Thus,

$AM=5\times\dfrac{5}{7}=\dfrac{25}{7}=3\dfrac{4}{7}.$

Sales for a company were 3 million dollars more the second year than the first, and sales for the third year were doubled the sa

Sati [7]

Year 3 = 2s

Year 2 = 3 + x

Year 1 = x

s = second year

x = first year

2s = 26

s = 13

The second year they made 13 million

13 - 3 = 10

x = 10

They made 10 million the first year.

50 points! Tell whether the orthocenter is inside, on, or outside the triangle. Then find the coordinates of the orthocenter.

Nady [450]

Answer:

(1,3) is inside the triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Orthocenter is the intersection of altitudes.

We'll calculate the slopes of the two sides and their altitudes ad find the intersection.

m = (3 - 5)/(4 - (-1)) = -2/5

<u>Perpendicular slope:</u>

-1/m = 5/2

<u>Perpendicular line passes through S(-1, -2):</u>

y - (-2) = 5/2(x - (-1)) ⇒ y = 5/2x + 1/2

m = (-2 - 3)/(-1 -4) = -5/-5 = 1

<u>Perpendicular slope:</u>

-1/m = -1/1 = -1

<u>Perpendicular line passes through Q(-1, 5):</u>

y - 5 = -(x - (-1)) ⇒ y = -x + 4

The intersection of the two lines is the orthocenter.

<u>Solve the system of equations to get the coordinates of the orthocenter:</u>

5/2x + 1/2 = x + 4
5x + 1 = -2x + 8
7x = 7
x = 1

<u>Find y-coordinate:</u>

y = -1 + 4 = 3

The orthocenter is (1, 3)

If we plot the points, we'll see it is inside the triangle

Factor each polynomial<br> 4z^2+4z-15

Mkey [24]

Answer:

(2z + 5)(2z - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4z² + 4z - 15

4z² + 10z - 6z - 15

2z (2z + 5) - 3 (2z + 5)
