allsm [11]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

H, 4 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

There are ten cards in the deck so you convert the fraction into tenths.

2/5 = 4/10 therefor its 4 cards

How many roots does the equation 3x² = 1 - 7x have and what is the nature of the roots
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite this quadratic in standard form:  3x^2 + 7x - 1.

The coefficients of x are {3, 7, -1}, and so the discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or

7^2 - 4(3)(-1), or 49 + 12, or 61.  Because the discriminant is positive, this quadratic has two real, unequal roots

A helicopter is flying above a town. the local high school is directly to the east of the helicopter at a 20° angle of depressio
guapka [62]
Answer: 4.5 miles

Explanation:

When you draw the situation you find two triangles.

1) Triangle to the east of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from the high school to the helicopter = depression angle from the helicopter to the high school = 20°

b) hypotensue = distance between the high school and the helicopter

c) opposite-leg to angle 20° = heigth of the helicopter

d) adyacent leg to the angle 20° = horizontal distance between the high school and the helicopter = x

2) triangle to the west of the helicopter

a) elevation angle from elementary school to the helicopter = depression angle from helicopter to the elementary school = 62°

b)  distance between the helicopter and the elementary school = hypotenuse

c) opposite-leg to angle 62° = height of the helicopter

d) adyacent-leg to angle 62° = horizontal distance between the elementary school and the helicopter = 5 - x

3) tangent ratios

a) triangle with the helicpoter and the high school

tan 20° = Height / x ⇒ height = x tan 20°

b) triangle with the helicopter and the elementary school

tan 62° = Height / (5 - x) ⇒ height = (5 - x) tan 62°

c) equal the height from both triangles:

x tan 20° = (5 - x) tan 62°

x tan 20° = 5 tan 62° - x tan 62°

x tan 20° + x tan 62° = 5 tan 62°

x  (tan 20° + tan 62°) = 5 tan 62°

⇒ x = 5 tant 62° / ( tan 20° + tan 62°)

⇒ x = 4,19 miles

=> height = x tan 20° = 4,19 tan 20° = 1,525 miles

4) Calculate the hypotenuse of this triangle:

hipotenuese ² = x² + height ² = (4.19)² + (1.525)² = 19.88 miles²

hipotenuse = 4.46 miles

Rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5 miles

That is the distance between the helicopter and the high school.

What is the solution to StartFraction 5 over 6 EndFraction x minus one-third greater-than 1 and one-third?
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is x > 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > 1\dfrac{1}{3}

An inequality compares two quantities unlike an equality. An inequality is written with either a greater than ( > ) or lower than ( < ) or greater than equal to ( \geq ) or less than equal to ( \leq ) signs. We solve the above given inequality to find the solutions of the unknown x.

\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > 1\dfrac{1}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x - \dfrac{1}{3} > \dfrac{4}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x > \dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{4}{3} \\\dfrac{5}{6} x > \dfrac{5}{3}\\x > 2

Firstly we change the right hand side quantity to fraction.

We then transfer the - \frac{1}{3} to the right hand side and add them. The inequality sign does not change as we are simply adding or subtracting terms from both the ends.

Finally we divide both sides with \frac{6}{5} to get the required solution. The inequality sign does not change as we are multiplying both the ends with a positive quantity.

This gives us the answer as x > 2.
