There is a 20:12 chance that there is a small size, now that would be a answer but I suggest simplifying the answer so divide them by 4 since that's the greatest common factor. So, 20/4=5 & 12/4=3 so there is a 4:3 chance that you get a small sized sweater.

What is the value of x?
natima [27]

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle always adds up to 180° so since one side of the triangle is already 90°, that means the other two sides add up to be 90° as well.

x + 2x = 90 \\ 3x = 90 \\  \frac{3x}{3}  =  \frac{90}{3}  \\ x = 30

Answer:

A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

we would like to solve the following equation:

\rm\displaystyle 5 - 2x =  \sqrt{ {2x}^{2} + x - 1 }  - x

to do so isolate -x to the left hand side and change its sign:

\rm\displaystyle 5 - 2x + x =  \sqrt{ {2x}^{2} + x - 1 }

simplify addition:

\rm\displaystyle 5 - x =  \sqrt{ {2x}^{2} + x - 1 }

square both sides:

\rm\displaystyle (5 - x {)}^{2}  =  (\sqrt{ {2x}^{2} + x - 1 }  {)}^{2}

simplify square of the right hand side:

\rm\displaystyle (5 - x {)}^{2}  =  {2x}^{2} + x - 1

use (a-b)²=a²-2ab+b² to expand the left hand side:

\rm\displaystyle  {x}^{2}  - 10x + 25=  {2x}^{2} + x - 1

swap the equation:

\rm\displaystyle   {2x}^{2} + x - 1 =  {x}^{2}  - 10x + 25

isolate the right hand side expression to the left hand side and change every sign:

\rm\displaystyle   {2x}^{2} + x - 1 - {x}^{2}   + 10x  -  25 =  0

simplify:

\rm\displaystyle   {x}^{2} + 11x  -  26=  0

rewrite the middle term as 13x-2x:

\rm\displaystyle   {x}^{2} + 13x - 2x  -  26=  0

factor out x:

\rm\displaystyle   x({x}^{} + 13)- 2x  -  26=  0

factor out -2:

\rm\displaystyle   x({x}^{} + 13)- 2(x   +  13)=  0

group:

\rm\displaystyle   (x- 2)(x   +  13)=  0

by <em>Zero</em><em> </em><em>product</em><em> </em><em>property</em> we obtain:

\displaystyle    \begin{cases}x- 2  = 0\\ x   +  13=  0 \end{cases}

solve for x:

\displaystyle    \begin{cases}x = 2\\ x  =   - 13 \end{cases}

to check for extraneous solutions we can define the domain of equation recall that a square root of a function is always greater than or equal to 0 therefore

\rm\displaystyle 5 - x    \geq0

solve the inequality for x:

\rm\displaystyle x    \leqslant  5

since 2 and -13 is less than 5 both solutions are valid for x hence,

\displaystyle    \begin{cases}x _{1} = 2\\  x_{2} =   - 13 \end{cases}

and we're done!

Write a new function that represents a transformation to the parent function if the new function shifts right 5 units and up 3 u
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Let's define two transformations.

Vertical translation.

If we have a function f(x), a vertical translation of N untis is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + N

If N is positive, then the translation is upwards

If N is negative, then the translation is downwards.

Horizontal translation.

If we have a function f(x), a horizontal translation of N units is written as:

g(x) = f(x - N)

if N is positive, then the translation is to the right

If N is negative, then the translation is to the left.

Now we have a function g(x) that is a transformation of a parent function f(x) (we actually do not know which parent function, so i assume f(x) = x^2) such that we have a shift right 5 units and up 3 units.

Then:

g(x) = f(x - 5) + 3

and again, using f(x) = x^2

g(x) = (x - 5)^2  + 3

Please help me with this math question! I don't understand

DC, run your finger from point d, all the way around the circle to point c. Basically, you just drew a 180 degree arc(either clockwise or counter-clockwise will work).
