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.

The (period,amplitude,frequence) of y=1/4cos1/2x is 4pie.<br> one of these is the answer need help
Sidana [21]

Answer:

  period

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached graph shows a period of the function. Its amplitude is 1/4 (vertical distance from centerline to peak). Its period is 4π (horizontal distance from peak to peak). Its frequency is the reciprocal of the period, so would be 1/(4π).

The value 4π is the period of the function.

I WILL CHOOSE BRAINLIEST as long as it LOOKS correct<br><br> Solve 3 ( x − 4 ) = 12 x
omeli [17]

Answer:

The answer is (-4/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x − 4) = 12x

Multiply (x – 4) by 3 we get,

3(x – 4) = 12x

3x – 12 = 12x

3x – 12x – 12 + 12 = 12x – 12x + 12

-9x = 12

-9x/(-9) = -12/9

x = -4/3

Thus, The value of x is -4/3
