Answer:

GH = 17 units

GI = 39 units

HI = 39 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Triangle GHI is an isosceles triangle.

$GI = HI$

The measures of side are:

$GH = 3 + x\\HI = 4x-17\\GI = 6x - 45$

It is given that

GI = HI

$4x - 17 = 6x -45\\6x - 4x = 45-17\\2x = 28\\x = 14$

Thus, the measures of three sides are:

$GH = 3 + x=14+3 = 17\\HI = 4x-17 = 4(14)-17 = 39\\GI = 6x - 45=6(14) - 45 = 39$

A soccer player uses her head to hit a ball up in the air from a height of 2 meters with an initial vertical velocity of 5 meter

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:1.32 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The initial height of ball H=2 m

Initial velocity u=5 m/s

Height of ball at any instant is given by

$H=-4.9t^2+5t+2$

The ball will hit the ground when h=0

$-4.9t^2+5t+2=0\\4.9t^2-5t-2=0\\t=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt{25+4(4.9)(2)}}{2\times 4.9}\\t=\dfrac{5\pm\sqrt{64.2}}{9.8}\\t=\dfrac{5+8.01}{9.8}=1.32\ s\quad\text{Neglecting negative value of t}$

Assume the number of pounds of chocolate consumed in a year is equally likely between 20 and 100 pounds. what is the probability

kramer

Because the probability is uniform (equally likely) between 20 and 100 pounds, the probability distribution is uniform between 80 and 100 pounds, with the value 1/(100-20) = 1/80 chocolates/pound.

Let x = random variable that represents pounds of chocolate consumed.
Therefore
P(x < 60) = (60 - 20)*(1/80) = 1/2.

Answer: The probability is 1/2.

Please help I will mark Brainly

Bas_tet [7]

okay so you would go down to -8, then the slope would be 4/1 which means to go up four and then over one. then you have the line.

i hope this helps you!

What is the solution set for 3x>6?

zalisa [80]

Isolate the x

divide 3 from both sides

3x/3 > 6/3

x > 6/3

x > 2 is your answer

Note: because you are not dividing by a negative number, you do not need to flip the sign

hope this helps

Ms. Thomas took her family and friend to the movies. There were a total of 16 people. Children tickets cost $6 and adult tickets

Korolek [52]

Answer:

11 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up a system of equations:

Let x = number of children and y = number of adults

There is a total of 16 people, so x+y = 16. This is your first equation.

Each child ticket costs $6, so 6x = cost of children's tickets based on the number of children present (x)

Each adult ticket costs $9, so 9y = cost of adult's tickets based on the number of adults present (y)

The total cost of tickets is $129, so 6x+9y = 129. This is your second equation.

Your system of equations is now this:

x + y = 16

6x + 9y = 129

You can solve this system using the method of elimination, where we will eliminate the variable x (number of children), since we are focused on y (number of adults).

Multiply the top equation by -6. This will give the following equation:

-6x - 6y = -96

You can now solve the system of equations by placing the new equation under the second equation like this:

6x + 9y = 129

-6x - 6y = -96

Now, add the two equations together.

6x + (-6x) = 0

9y + (-6y) = 3y

129 + (-96) = 33

After doing this, you get the following equation:

3y = 33

As you can see, the variable x has been eliminated, and you are left with y.

Solve the equation for y:

3y = 33

y = 33/3 = 11

y = 11 adults
