Answer:

a=5, b=15

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The figure MNLO is a Kite

so

LO=NO  and MN=LM

we have

LO=7a-14, NO=b+6

7a-14=b+6 -----> equation A

MN=b, LM=3a

b=3a -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for a

7a-14=(3a)+6

7a-3a=6+14

4a=20

a=5

Find the value of b

b=3a ----> b=3(5)=15

therefore

a=5, b=15

Which statement describes the function y = axn when a = 1 and n is odd?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The graph is symmetric about the origin.

The graph does not pass through the origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given:

  • the function y=axn
  • a = 1
  • n is odd

Because a = 1, then the given function can be rewritten as y = n.

  • The graph opens down

The function y = n will produce a horizontal line. Any function in the form of y = a single number, such as 4 or 9.3 will produce a horizontal line.

  • The graph is symmetric about the origin.

This is true, given the graph is a horizontal line.

  • The graph does not pass through the origin.

This is also true. We're given that n is an odd number. The graph will only pass through the origin if n = 0, and 0 is even.

  • The graph has more than one x-intercept.

This would only be true when n = 0, and this isn't possible. So, no.

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry: is the line that makes the parabola split in exactly half and lines up with the vertex. For that parabola x=1 is the line of symetry.

The vertex is where the minimum of the graph is, on this graph you can eyeball it to be (1,-9)

The x-intercept is where y is 0 so that's where the lines intersex with the x-axis. (-2,0) and (4,0)

The y-intercept of the function is where x is 0 and where the parabola intersects with the y-axis. On this graph it would be (0,-8)

Hope that helps :)

Can a prime number be a multiple of any other number except itself. Explain why or why not
zzz [600]
No, by definition a prime number is one where the only factors are 1 and itself. If some prime number is a multiple of another number, then that other number is a factor of the prime number. But that would make it composite (non-prime)

For example, the number 11 is prime. The only factors are 1 and itself. If we made the claim that 11 is a multiple of 2, then 2 would be a factor of 11 making 11 non-prime (as it doesn't just have 1 and itself as factors).

Note: If you have two numbers A and B, and you say that A is a factor of B, then A is the smaller value. Though there is the exception when A = B. For example, saying "8 is a factor of 16" has 8 being the smaller value.

Another note: if you say "A is a multiple of B", then B is larger than A. The exception is when A = B. Example: "100 is a multiple of 5"

PLSSS HELPP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!! NEED ASAPPP
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

s = 130 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

decagon has a 1,440 degrees interior angles

equation: 1,440 = s + 1310

to find s, add all the known angles

⇒ s + 150 + 170 + 160 + 130 +120 + 160 + 105 + 160 +155

⇒ s + 1,310

equation:

s + 1310 = 1440

subtract each side by 1310

⇒ s + 1310 - 1310 = 1440 - 1310

⇒ s = 130
