Answer:

13√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The areas of the larger triangle, and the smaller triangle (formed when the larger triangle was cut by the parallel line) are similar. Therefore we can compare their areas:

Area1/Area2 =  (Length1)^2/(Length2)^2,

x/2x = (Length1)^2/(26)^2,

1/2 = (Length1)^2/676,

(Length1)^2 = 676/2 = 338

Length1 = √1352 = 13√2

exis [7]

Answer:

39+0.15m \leqslant 50

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, Diana wants her total bill to be less than $50.

Diana pays a fixed monthly bill of

$39 for her mobile phone and an additional

$0.15 per minute for phone internet service.

The bill Diana pays for m minutes of using the internet is $0.15m in a month.

The total monthly bill becomes,

39+0.15m

The maximum bill she wants to pay is $50.

\implies39+0.15m \leqslant 50

This inequality can be solved to determine the number of available minutes.

A sine function is transformed such that it has a single x-intercept in the interval (0,pi), a period of pi and a y-intercept of
Alex787 [66]
Just to make sure we're using the same language, I'm going to use the function form of:

y = A\sin(kx) + h

[] I would agree that k = 2, since the period is only half as long as a normal sine function. So, we so far, have y = A sin(2x) + h. We still need to find A and h.

[] The y-intercept is 3. Remember that the y-intercept happens when x = 0. So, plugging in x = 0 into our formula, we have: 3 = A sin(2*0) + h. In other words, 3 = A sin(0) + h = 0 + h = h. So, we now know that h = 3. The formula is now y = A sin(2x) + 3.

[] Finally, there is a single x-intercept. Picture what the sine function looks like right now, it is floating in the air around y = 3. We need to stretch it vertically until it just grazes the x-axis. 

If A = 1, then our sine function bounces between 2 and 4 (+/- 1 around h = 3). But that doesn't touch 0, so no good.

If A = 2, then our sine function bounces between 1 and 5 (+/- 2 around h = 3). Again, not quite touching 0 yet.

The answer should be A = 3, then our sine function bounces between 0 and 6 (+/- 3 around h = 3).

The final formula is y = 3 sin(2x) + 3.

ABCD∼EFGH AD=45 in. , EH=75 in. , and AB=30 in. What is EF ? Enter your answer in the box. EF = in.
Helen [10]
The ~ symbol means that the 2 shapes are similar, meaning the same shape but not the same size.

To determine the measure of side length EF, you must find the relationship between the 2 side lengths.

You should set these up as ratios of the length to the width. So, for ABCD, it is 30/45. Make this equal to x/75. If you simplify the first ratio to 2:3, you can then multiply by both numerator and denominator by 25 to get x = 25 in/ 75 in.

Another way is to use cross products with you proportion. 75 x 30 = 45x. Solve for x to get 50 inches.
