Answer:

  x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding segments are proportional.

  x/8 = 21/24

  x/8 = 7/8 . . . . reduce the fraction

  x = 7 . . . . . . . multiply by 8

Rainbow [258]

We know that

x = \sqrt{\frac{4}{16}}

So:

The coordinate plane below represents a town. Points A through F are farms in the town. graph of coordinate plane. Point A is at
gayaneshka [121]
I made my own graph using the given points. Pls. see attachment. 

<span>Part A: Using the graph above, create a system of inequalities that only contains points D and F in the overlapping shaded regions. Explain how the lines will be graphed and shaded on the coordinate grid above.

I used paint program to graph the points based on the given data. 
I used a ruler as guide as I draw my line containing both points D and F and extended the line outward.
The yellow lines above represents the shaded portion of the graph.

y = mx + b

b is the y-intercept. It is the value of y when x is 0. In this case, b = 3.5
m is the slope. It is the change in y divided by the change in x. 
point D (2,4) ; point F (-2,3)
change in y: 4 - 3 = 1
change in x: 2 - (-2) = 4
m = 1/4

y = 1/4 x + 3.5 

Since we are looking for a system of inequality and the portion shaded is in the upper part of the line, the value of y will be greater than or equal to.

y </span>≥ 1/4x + 3.5<span>

Part B: Explain how to verify that the points D and F are solutions to the system of inequalities created in Part A.

To check the solution given above. We will use the x values of points D and F and check whether its y values are equal to or greater than the solution.</span>

y ≥ 1/4x + 3.5

Point D (2,4) : x = 2 : y ≥ 1/4 * 2 + 3.5 → 0.5 + 3.5 → 4
Point F (-2.3): x = -2 ; y ≥ 1/4 * -2 + 3.5 → -0.5 + 3.5 → 3
<span>
Part C: Chickens can only be raised in the area defined by y > 2x − 2. Explain how you can identify farms in which chickens can be raised.

y > 2x - 2

We will get the coordinates of each point and see if its x value will generate the desired value of y.

A(2,-3) ; x = 2 : </span><span>y > 2(2) - 2 </span>→ 4 - 2 → 2 . DID NOT PASS. -3 is lesser than 2.<span>
B(-3,-4) ; x = -3 : y > 2(-3) - 2 </span>→ -6 - 2 → -8. PASSED. -4 is greater than -8.<span>
C(-4,2) ; x = -4 : y > 2(-4) - 2 </span>→ -8 - 2 → -10. PASSED. 2 is greater than -10.<span> 
D(2,4) ; x = 2 : y > 2(2) - 2 </span>→ 4 - 2 → 2. PASSED. 4 is greater than 2.<span>
E(3,1) ; x = 3 : y > 2(3) - 2 </span>→ 6 - 2 → 4. DID NOT PASS. 1 is lesser than 4.<span>
F(-2,3) ; x = -2 ; y > 2(-2) - 2 </span>→ -4 - 2 → -6. PASSED. 3 is greater than -6.

Among the farms, points B,C, D, and F can raise chickens based on the given system of linear inequality.

I need help with premetier and area for 7 8 9
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The answers to the three shapes are:

Figure 7; perimeter = 16.2mm, area = 12.64 square mm

Figure 8; perimeter = 15.2inches, area = 9.61 square inches

Figure 9; perimeter = 21.47yards,  area = 16.81 square yards

<h3>What is the perimeter of a shape?</h3>

Perimeter is the outside boundary of a plane shape.

Analysis:

for figure 7, perimeter = s + s + s = 3s = 3(5.4) = 16.2mm

                   Height of triangle = \sqrt{((5.4)^{2} - (2.7)^{2}  } = 4.68

            Area of triangle = 1/2 base x height = 1/2 x 5.4 x 4.68 = 12.64mm^{2}

For figure 8, perimeter = b + b + a = 5.9 + 5.9 + 3.4 = 15.2 inches

                     Height of triangle = \sqrt{(5.9)^{2}  - (1.7)^{2} } = 5.65inches

           Area of triangle = 1/2 base x height = 1/2 x 3.4 x 5.65 = 9.61inches^{2}

For figure 9, perimeter = b + a + c = 8.2 + 4.1 + 9.17 = 21.47yards

           Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 8.2 x 4.1 = 16.81yards^{2}

In conclusion, the perimeter and area of the given shapes are:

Figure 7; perimeter = 16.2mm, area = 12.64 square mm

Figure 8; perimeter = 15.2inches, area = 9.61 square inches

Figure 9; perimeter = 21.47yards,  area = 16.81 square yards

Find the measure of the missing angles.
Karolina [17]

Answer:

angles b and c should be 153° each.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the smaller angle is 27°. The other small angle, vertical to the 27° angle is also 27° because they are vertical angles. Along the lines, two angles should form 180°. So 180-27=153°. All together the angles should be 360°. Check your answer by doing 153+153+27+27=360. therefore the missing angles are both 153°

What does 23/2 reduce down to in its simplest form?
Lunna [17]

To simplify this improper fraction we can turn it into a mixed number. The fact that the denominator is 2 and the numerator isn't divisible by 2 shows that it can't simplified any further as a improper fraction.

23/2 = 11 1/2

Best of Luck!
