Answer:JT=15
Step-by-step explanation:
45% of 76
45%=0.45
0.45*76
34.2
34.2 is about 34
so 34
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
(whole secant) x (external part) = (tangent)^2
(x+5) *x = 6^2
x^2 +5x = 36
Subtract 36 from each side
x^2 +5x - 36 = 0
Factor
( x-4) (x+9) = 0
Using the zero product property
x-4 = 0 x+9 =0
x = 4 x=-9
Cannot be negative since that is negative length
x=4
Answer:
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&7\\5&-8\\3&-9\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}c\\d\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D5%267%5C%5C5%26-8%5C%5C3%26-9%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dc%5C%5Cd%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D-16%5C%5C3%5C%5C-15%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
This tells us that:
![A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&7\\5&-8\\3&-9\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D5%267%5C%5C5%26-8%5C%5C3%26-9%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
![b=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=b%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D-16%5C%5C3%5C%5C-15%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
So we are saying we have scalars, c and d, such that:
![c\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5\\5\\ 3\end{array}\right]+d\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7\\-8\\-9\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=c%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D5%5C%5C5%5C%5C%203%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%2Bd%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D7%5C%5C-8%5C%5C-9%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%3D%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D-16%5C%5C3%5C%5C-15%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
So we want to find a way to express this as:
Ax=b where x is the scalar vector, ![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}c\\d\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dc%5C%5Cd%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
So we can write this as:
Okay first you need to convert 0.2 to a percentage which would be 20% then 20% + 20% = 40% then it says he read 50%, 50% of 36 means that you have to multiply 36 two times to get, 72 then you do 72 * 40% = 28.8 = 29 + 72 = 101 pages in all then 101- 40%= 60.6 is how many pages were read on Monday and Tuesday.
