Suppose that receiving stations​ X, Y, and Z are located on a coordinate plane at the points ​(6​,2​), ​(negative 2​,negative 4​

), and ​(negative 10​,4​), respectively. The epicenter of an earthquake is determined to be 5 units from X​, 5 units from​ Y, and 13 units from Z. Where on the coordinate plane is the epicenter​ located?

Answer:

  (2,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph is useful here. Points X and Y have coordinate differences of ...

  X -Y = (6, 2) -(-2, -4) = (6+2, 2+4) = (8, 6)

Then the distance between X and Y is ...

  d = √(8² +6²) = √100 = 10

The point 5 units from X and from Y is the midpoint of XY:

  E = (X +Y)/2 = ((6, 2) +(-2, -4))/2 = (4, -2)/2 = (2, -1)

The epicenter is (2, -1).

_____

The graph shows circles of radius 5 around X and Y, and a circle of radius 13 around Z. The circles intersect at the point (2, -1), the epicenter.

One counting number is 4 times great as a counting number.The product of the two number is 36.What is the sum of the two number
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The sum of the two numbers is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the counting numbers be x and y.

Then we can write the following equations

x=4y.......1 (one is four times greater )

x(y)=36.....2 (the product of the two)

Putting equation 1 into equation 2, we get

4y(y)=36

{4y}^{2} = 36

Dividing through by 4,we get

{y}^{2} =  \frac{36}{4}

{y}^{2} = 9

Taking square root of both side, we obtain

y=3

Putting the value of y into equation , we get

x=4(3)=12

Hence the numbers are 3 and 12

Therefore the sum of the two numbers is 3+12=15

The four digit numeral 3AA1 is divisible by 9. What digit does A represent
dexar [7]

Answer:

A = 2, the number is 3221

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the number to be divisible by 9, the sum of it's digit has to be divisible by 9.

In our case, 4+A+A+1= 9k where k is an integer. the easiest way happens when k=1

5+2A= 9 \rightarrow 2A=4 \rightarrow A = 2

Higher values of k will likely most work (with k=2 you get A to be a non-integer, which can't work since it's the digit of a number, and with higher values of K you're not getting a number in base 10.
