Find values of x, HJ, and JK.​

Mathematics
1 answer:
xz_007 [3.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 2, HJ = JK = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that H is the midpoint of JK , then

HJ = JK = 6x - 1 and

HJ + JK = JK , that is

6x - 1 + 6x - 1 = 3x + 16 ← simplify left side

12x - 2 = 3x + 16 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

9x - 2 = 16 ( add 2 to both sides )

9x = 18 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 2

Then

HJ = JK = 6x - 1 = 6(2) - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

The proposal for the price for a number of shirts given by the four companies can be analyzed graphically, given that each price list gives a straight line, and the result presented using a piecewise function approach as follows:

\begin{cases} & \text{ if } 20 \leq  x\leq 40 \ The \ company \ to \ be \ selected \ is \ Easy \ Calculation\\ & \text{ if } 40 < x \leq 80\ The \ company \ to \ be \ selected \ is \ Shirtee \\ & \text{ if } 80 < x \leq 200\The \ company \ to \ be \ selected \ is \ T-Shirts\ R\ Us \end{cases}

<h3>What is a piecewise function?</h3>

A piecewise defined function is one that has other sub functions which are applied over different intervals of the domain.

The given table of values and equation are plotted on a graph using MS Excel

From the graph, and the table created, we have:

When the number of shirts on order is less than 40, the least expensive is Easy Calculation shirts

When the number of shirts are more than 40 but less than 80, the least expensive proposal is given by Shirtee

When the number of shirts to be ordered is more than 80, the company that gives the least expensive proposal is T-Shirts R Us

The selection table is presented as follows:

\begin{cases} & \text{ if } 20 \leq  x\leq 40 \ The \ company \ to \ be \ selected \ is \ Easy \ Calculation\\ & \text{ if } 40 < x \leq 80\ The \ company \ to \ be \ selected \ is \ Shirtee \\ & \text{ if } 80 < x \leq 200\The \ company \ to \ be \ selected \ is \ T-Shirts\ R\ Us \end{cases}

Explain how to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length of a right triangle.<br>​
tino4ka555 [31]

Pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

This means that the square of the length of the 2 legs of a right triangle added together = the square of the length of the hypotenuses or diagonal.

If you know 2 of the values in the 3 variables a,b,c what would you do to find the missing variable value?

I will not write the exact answers to this problem. I think you can figure how to write it out yourselves.

At a real estate​ agency, an agent sold a house for ​$360,000. The commission rate is 25% for the real estate agency and the com
Orlov [11]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The amount that the agency make on the​ house will be 25% of $360,000. This will be:

= 25% × $360,000

= 25/100 × $360,000

= 0.25 × $360,000

= $90,000

b. The amount that the agent earn in​ commission will be:

= 30% × $90,000

= 30/100 × $90,000

= 0.3 × $90,000

= $27,000

WARNING : NON SENSE ANSWER REPORT TO MODERATOR ​
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

\frac{180}{147}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Simplify (\frac{3}{-7} - \frac{11}{21} )

=> \frac{(-3 \times 3) - 11}{21}

=> \frac{-9 - 11}{21}

=> \frac{-20}{21}

  • Find the additive inverse of  \frac{-20}{21} by using its property - <em>"Sum of a number & its additive inverse is always zero". </em>Assume that 'x' is an additive inverse of  \frac{-20}{21}.

=> x + \frac{-20}{21} = 0

=> x = 0 - (-\frac{20}{21}) = \frac{20}{21}

  • Simplify (\frac{9}{5} \div \frac{7}{5} )

=> \frac{9}{5} \times \frac{1}{\frac{7}{5} }

=> \frac{9}{5} \times \frac{5}{7}

=> \frac{9}{7}

  • Now, find the product of \frac{9}{7} & \frac{20}{21}

=> \frac{9}{7} \times \frac{20}{21}

=> \frac{180}{147}
