Answer:

total sky divers is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

60% = 15 skydivers

divide by 6 both sides

10% = 2.5

times by 4 both sides

40%=10

_________

60%+40%=100%

15+10=25

Answer:

y = 2/3x +6  for x< -3

y = 2/3x +1     for x> 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is a line for  x < -3

( - 6,2) and ( -3,4)

The slope is m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( 4-2)/(-3 - -6) = 2/ ( -3+6) = 2/3

The slope is 2/3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  and the point ( -6,2)

y -2 = 2/3(x - -6)

y -2 = 2/3(x +6)

y-2 = 2/3 x +4

y = 2/3x +6 x< -3

The graph is a line for  x > 3

(3,3) and ( 6,5)

The slope is m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = ( 5-3)/(6-3) = 2/ (3) = 2/3

The slope is 2/3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)  and the point (6,5)

y -5 = 2/3(x - 6)

y-5 = 2/3 x -4

y = 2/3x +1   x> 3

Triangle ABC has AB=5, BC=7, and AC=9. D is on AC with BD=5. Find the length of DC
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

DC=\frac{8}{3}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

The triangle ABD is an isosceles triangle

because

AB=BD

The segment BM is a perpendicular bisector segment AD

so

<em>In the right triangle ABM</em>

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

BM^2=AB^2-AM^2

we have

AB=5\ units\\AM=x\ units

substitute

BM^2=5^2-x^2

BM^2=25-x^2 -----> equation A

<em>In the right triangle BMC</em>

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

BM^2=BC^2-MC^2

we have

BC=7\ units\\MC=AC-AM=(9-x)\ units

substitute

BM^2=7^2-(9-x)^2

BM^2=49-(81-18x+x^2)  

BM^2=49-81+18x-x^2

BM^2=-x^2+18x-32 ----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B

-x^2+18x-32=25-x^2

solve for x

18x=25+32\\18x=57\\\\x=\frac{57}{18}

Simplify

x=\frac{19}{6}

<em>Find the length of DC</em>

DC=AC-2x

substitute the given values

DC=9-2(\frac{19}{6})

DC=9-\frac{19}{3}\\\\DC=\frac{8}{3}\ units

Answer:

Option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Minimum value is going to be in the y part of our coordinate, so we can just look there. I went ahead and used a graphing calculator to make things easy.

Starting off with option 2, we can see the minimum is -10. And in option 4 we can see the smallest y value is -6.

Using a graphing calculator (I used desmos), we can graph these other functions and figure out their minimums.

Option 1's y minimum is -7, and Option 3's y minimum is -2.25.

Option 1: -7

Option 2: -10

Option 3: -2.25

Option 4: -6

The questions asks for the <em>smallest</em> minimum value, which in this case is option 2.
