Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{3}$ (x) = 17 (One third of the total equals seventeen)

x = 17(3)

x = 51

Centroids create two segments.

The larger makes up $\frac{2}{3}$ of the total.

The smaller makes up $\frac{1}{3}$ of the total.

Answer:

EX = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 intersecting lines in the triangle are medians.

The distance from the vertex to the centroid is twice the distance from the centroid to the midpoint, that is

EJ = 2 JX = 2 × 17 = 34 , then

EX = EJ + JX = 34 + 17 = 51

One geometry question <br> Please help me with this!!!!

otez555 [7]

Answer:

∠ XAZ = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the circle = 360°

Given arc XYZ = 230°, then

arc XZ = 360° - 230° = 130°

The tangent- tangent angle XAZ is one half the difference of the intercepted arcs, that is

∠ XAZ = $\frac{1}{2}$ (230 - 130)° = 0.5 × 100° = 50°

A printer has a contract to print 100,000 posters for a political candidate. He can run the posters by using any number of plate

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Numbers of posters that can be printed in an hour = no of impression/hour × no of plate utilized in each impression.

= 1000x

Thus, the required number of hours it will take can be computed as:

$\implies \dfrac{100000}{1000x} \\ \\ =\dfrac{100}{x}$

cost per hour = 125

If each plate costs $20 to make, then the total number of plate will equal to 40x

∴

The total cost can be computed as:

$C(x) = (\dfrac{100}{x}) \times 125 + 20 x --- (1)$

$C'(x) = (-\dfrac{12500}{x^2}) + 20 --- (2)$

At C'(x) = 0

$\dfrac{12500}{x^2} = 20$

$\dfrac{12500}{20} = x^2$

$x^2= 625$

$x = \sqrt{625}$

x = 25

$C'' (x) = -12500 \times \dfrac{-2}{x^3} +0$

$C'' (x) = \dfrac{25000}{x^3}$

where; x = 25

$C'' (x) = \dfrac{25000}{25^3}$

C''(x) = 1.6

Thus, at x = 25, C'' > 0

As such, to minimize the cost, the printer needs to make 25 metal plates.

A particle begins at point (1, 2) and is moving along the line segment joining (1, 2) to (3, 4). Initially, what is the rate of

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Initially, that is, at (1,2), the rate of increase of the function in the direction given = 0

Hence the function is neither increasing nor decreasing initially in the given direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x,y) = 2x² - y²

Rate of Change of the function = ∇f = (fₓ, fᵧ)

And we're told to find the rate of change in a particular direction = ∇f.û

We first obtain the unit vector in that direction, û

Direction = (3,4) - (1,2) = (2,2)

Uni vector = vector/magnitude

Vector = 2î + 2j

magnitude = √(2² + 2²) = √8 = 2 √2

(2î + 2j)/(2√2) = (1/√2)î + (1/√2)j = û

Unit vector in the direction = (1/√2, 1/√2)

f = 2x² - y²

At (1,2)

fₓ = ∂f/∂x = 4x = 4

fᵧ = ∂f/∂y = -2y = -4

∇f = (4,-4)

∇f.û = (4î - 4j).((1/√2)î + (1/√2)j) = (4/√2) - (4/√2) = 0

If it was positive, then the function is increasing, if it was negative, the function is decreasing. Zero means neither of them.

Hence the function is neither increasing nor decreasing initially in the given direction.

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

To represent this proportion using fractions, let the numerators be the number of waffles sold and denominator, the number of sugar cones.

Thus, the proportion that can be used to represent the cone sales is
