Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

2/3x = 27

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Divide 2/3 on both sides:                    x = 81/2

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    2/3(81/2) = 27
  2. Multiply:                               27 = 27

Here we see that 27 does indeed equal 27.

∴ x = 81/2 is the solution to the equation.

Given a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 15 feet and a height of 6 feet, find the measurement of angle
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

66.42° between height and hypotenuse

23.58° between base and hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the concept of cosine and sine, we know that cosine of an angle is equal to the adjacent divided by hypotenuse.

Similarly, sine of an angle is given by opposite divided by hypotenuse

Tangent is given by opposite divided by adjacent

In rhis case, we use cosine

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac {6}{15})=66.4218215217982\\\theta\approx 66.42^{\circ}

Therefore, the angle between the hypotenuse and height is 66.42°

To find the angle between base and hypotenuse, since it is a right angle triangle then the other angle will be 90-66.42=23.58°

Find out if the 3 positions are on the same line or not (3,2,0) (1, -1,2) (5,5, 2)
sattari [20]

Answer:

The three positions are not on the same line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three points: A:(3,2,0),  B:(1,-1,2) and C:(5,5,2).

Let's build a vector that goes from one point to another; that vector will be the director of a line (if we draw a vector that goes from A to B, that vector will be the direction of the line that pass by A and B because it does not change). In order to build that vector, let's subtract B from A:

A-B=(3,2,0)-(1,-1,2)=(2,3,-2)

The equation of a line is:

p=p_0+rt

Where p is every singular point of the line, p_0 is a particular point of the line (any that we are sure that it is on the line), r is the director vector and t is the independent variable.

Now we have the director vector: (2,3,-2), and we can verify that A and B are on the line:

p=p_0+(2,3,-2)t

Because there is a value for t that satisfies both A and B: If we do p_0=(3,2,0) and t=0, we are going to obtain the point p=A; and if we do t=-1, we are going to obtain p=B. Let's see that:

p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)*0=(3,2,0)\\p=A\\p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)*-1=(1,-1,2)\\p=B\\

If C is also in the same line, C must accomplish the equation: p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)t, so:

C=(5,5,2)=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)t

Let's simplify the equation writing the parametric equation, which is just to write the equation for each dimension:

5=3+2t\\5=2-3t\\2=-2t\\

You can verify that there is not a value of t that satisfies all three equations, so, the point C is not on the same line as A and B; which means that A, B and C are not on the same line.

Saul decides to use the IQR to measure the spread of the data. Saul calculates the IQR of the data set to be 27.
padilas [110]

Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

The IQR is quartile 3 - quartile 1. First, we need to find the mean of the dataset, which is 50 -- the fifth number. Then, the median of the dataset on the left of the fifth number is the first quartile, and the median of the dataset on the right is the third. We get Q1 to then be halfway between 30 and 50, or 40, and Q3 to be halfway between 56 and n, so Q3 = (56+n)/2. Since we need Q3-Q1=27, or (56+n)/2-40=27, we have (56+n)/2=67 and 56+n=134, so n = 134-56=78
