Suppose each of the following statements is true. Laura is in the seventh grade. Laura got an A on the mathematics test or Sarah

got an A on the mathematics test. If Sarah got an A on the mathematics test, then Laura is not in the seventh grade. If possible, determine the truth value of each of the following statements. Carefully explain your reasoning. (a) Laura got an A on the mathematics test. (b) Sarah got an A on the mathematics test. (c) Either Laura or Sarah did not get an A on the mathematics test

Answer:

a) is TRUE

b) is FALSE

c) is TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the propositions

<em>P: Laura is in the seventh grade </em>

<em>Q: Laura got an A on the mathematics test </em>

<em>R:Sarah got an A on the mathematics test </em>

Then we have that the following propositions are true

P, Q v R (Q or R) and R---> ~P (if R then not P)

By watching at the truth table attached, we can see that the only row that satisfies all that conditions is the second one highlighted.

From there we can deduct that,

a) is TRUE

b) is FALSE

c) is TRUE

write an equation of the line passing through point p that is perpendicular to the given line p(6,10),y=-3x+13
patriot [66]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{3} x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 3x + 13 is in this form

with m = - 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-3} = \frac{1}{3}

y = \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 10) into the partial equation

10 = 2 + c ⇒ c = 10 - 2 = 8

y = \frac{1}{3} x + 8 ← equation of line

Enter an inequality that represents the graph in the box.
ANTONII [103]

The inequality that represents the graph in the box  is

y>-3x+6

Given :

The graph of the linear inequality

Lets pick two points from the graph to frame the linear equation

Slope intercept form of the equation is

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y intercept is (0,6) from the graph

so b=6

Now we find out slope m  using formula

Pick two points (0,6) and (2,0)

slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\m=\frac{0-6}{2-0} =-3

m=-3

So the equation is y=-3x+6

Now we check the inequality sign by testing any point on shaded area

lets pick (4,0)

lets plug in 4 for x  and 0 for y

y=-3x+6\\0=-3(4)+6\\\\0=-6\\0>-6

The inequality for the given graph is

y>-3x+6

we cannot use >= sign because we have dotted lines

Pls help asap! i will mark brainliest!
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

AB would be 18 or the first choice.

Since BD is the median that means from A to D and from D to C are equal. We set this up as an equation and solve it.

<em>x + 8 = 2x - 17</em>

<em>   </em><em><u>+ 17       +17</u></em>

<em>x + 25 = 2x</em>

<em><u>-x            -x</u></em>

<em>     25 = x</em>

This gives us our first bit of the answer. Then we plug this into our equation for the length of AB to get 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps. . . <3

good luck!      uωu
