Mathematics

Alinara [238K]3 years ago

Answer:

43

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Thales theorem:

● SP/LN = RP /RN

Notice that RN = 2×RP

● SP/LN = RP/2RP

● SP /LN = 1/2

● SP / (5x-14) = 0.5

● (2x+3)/(5x-14) = 0.5

● 2x+3 = 0.5(5x-14)

● 2x+3 = 2.5x -7

Add 7 to both sides

● 2x+3+7 = 2.5x-7+7

● 2x+10 = 2.5x

Sustract 2x brom both sides

● 2x+10-2x = 2.5x-2x

● 10 = 0.5x

Multiply both sides by 2

● 10×2 = 0.5x×2

● 20 = x

Replace x with 20 in Sp expression:

● SP = 2x+3

● SP = 2×20+3

● SP = 43

If f(x) = 3x - 2 and g(x) = 2x + 1, find (f - g)(x)
morpeh [17]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 3x-2

and

g(x) = 2x+1

We have to find (f-g)(x)

So,

(f-g)(x) = f(x)-g(x)

= 3x-2 - (2x+1)

= 3x-2-2x-1

=x-3

Hence,

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

What is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y-3 =-4(x+2)​
serg [7]

Answer:

y - 3 = \frac{1}{4}(x+2) or choose any line with slope 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this line is -4. The slope of the line perpendicular to this line will be the negative reciprocal or 1/4.

Write the equation using the slope m=1/4 and the point slope form.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-3=\frac{1}{4}(x+2)

This is the equation of the line that is perpendicular and passes through the same point (-2,3) as the equation listed.

What is the area of the polygon (-3,3) (-3,-1) (4,-1) (4,3) with the given verticies
Monica [59]

The area of the polygon with the given vertices: (-3,3) (-3,-1) (4,-1) (4,3) is 28 square units

<h3>What is rectangle ?</h3>

A rectangle is a polygon with four sides. The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal while the angles at the vertex is orthogonal

<h3>How to solve for area of the rectangle</h3>

The following are the data given in the question

polygon with the given vertices' as:

(-3,3)

(-3,-1)

(4,-1)

(4,3)

plotting the given polygon shows it is a rectangle with sides

Length, L =  7 units

Width, w = 4 units

Area if a rectangle is given by

= L * w

= 7 * 4

= 28 square units

The area of the polygon is 28 square units

One question in a survey about what kind of cars people prefer to drive is:
Aneli [31]
<h3>Answer: C) bias</h3>

The question is biased toward mothers, and does not consider women who do not have kids. A biased question leans toward a certain group, or set of groups, of people; at the same time, other groups are left out and not represented. One way to remove the bias is to ask "Would you prefer a minivan or a convertible?".
