Answer: 49.45

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information, we are informed that June was thinking of a number and then doubles it and gets and gets an answer of 98.9.

Let the number be represented by x.

Since she doubles it, thus implies that:

2x = 98.9

x = 98.9 / 2

x = 49.45

The number is 49.45

the altitude of the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into segments of lengths 14 and 8. what is the length

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

B. $4\sqrt{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle altitude theorem states that the altitude of a right angled triangles formed on the hypotenuse is equal to the geometric mean of the 2 line segments it creates.

This can be represented as:

$h = \sqrt{(xy)}$

Where,

h = the length of the altitude,

x and y are the lengths of the 2 segments formed.

Therefore, the length of the altitude = $h = \sqrt{(14*8)}$

$h = \sqrt{112}$

$h = \sqrt{16}*\sqrt{7}$

$h = 4\sqrt{7}$

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!

Answer: -258

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given the sequence {-8, 16, -32, 64, ... , a₇} we know the following

the first term (a₁) = -8
the common ratio (r) = -2
the number of terms (n) = 7

Input the information above into the Sum formula:

$S_n=\dfrac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\\\S_7=\dfrac{-8(1-(-2)^7)}{1-(-2)}\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{-8(1-(-128))}{1+3}\\\\.\quad =\dfrac{-8(129)}{4}\\\\.\quad =-2(129)\\\\.\quad =-258$

gregori [183]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-3\dfrac{1}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{We have}:\\\\f(x)=x^2-4\ \text{and}\ g(x)=x^2+2x\\\\(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\(f-g)(x)=(x^2-4)-(x^2+2x)=x^2-4-x^2-2x\\\\=(x^2-x^2)-2x-4=-2x-4\\\\(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)\to\text{put}\ x=-\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{to the equation of the function}\ (f-g)(x):\\\\(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-2\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)-4=\dfrac{2}{3}-4=-3\dfrac{1}{3}$
