From a train station, one train heads north, and another heads east. Some time later, the northbound train has traveled 27 kilom

eters, and the eastbound train has traveled 36 kilometers. How far apart are the two trains, measured in a straight line?

Answer: the eastbound train had travelled 12 miles
Explanation: using Pythagoras theorem, we know that
X^2 = a^2 + b^2
Where ^ stands for raised to power.
Let
a stand for the train going towards North and
b stands for the train going towards east.
X stands for the total distance between train a and b = 20 miles.
By Pythagoras rule
X^2 = a^2 + b^2
20^2 = 16^2 + b^2
400 = 256 + b^2 so that
b^2 = 400 - 256 = 144
b = √144
b = 12 miles.

The function f(x) = 2x − 1 is transformed to function g through a horizontal shift of 7 units left. What is the equation of func
Softa [21]

Answer:

h = 7, k = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

After 7 units left,

The function f(x) maps onto f(x+7)

g(x) = f(x + 7)

g(x) = 2(x + 7) - 1

g(x) = 2(x + h) + k

h = 7, k = -1

Consider the cartesian equation of a circle, y=-2+- sqrt 36-(x-1)^2 , verses the parametric equations of the same circle: x=1+6
hjlf

What are the advantages of the parametric equations

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parametric equations shows the relation between a group of quantities by expressing the coordinates of points of a curve and function as one or more independent variables.

From  the question given; the advantages of parametric equations  given

x = 1 + 6 cos t

y= -2 + 6 sin t

are :

1) For a given value of the independent variable the parametric equation is used exactly one point on the graph

2) the parametric equations  have a finite domain

3) the parametric equation is easier to enter into a calculator for graphic

1-i need to mix 25% mineral spirits to the varnish i am using what ratio of spirit to varnish am i using? 2-if i use 240 ml of v
zhenek [66]

Answer:

(1) The required ratio of spirit to varnish is 1:3.

(2) You need 80 ml of mineral spirit.

(3) The ratio of tapestries' heights to width is 3:2.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) If you need to mix 25% mineral spirit to the varnish, then the solution would contain 25% mineral spirit and 75% varnish.

So, \frac{spirit}{varnish}=\frac{25}{75}

                  =\frac{1}{3}

Thus, The required ratio of spirit to varnish is 1:3.

(2) If you use 240ml of varnish, then this quantity is 75% of the total solution or ration of varnish to the total solution will be 3:4.

Let x be the quantity of total solution.

Then, 240:x=3:4.

⇒\frac{240}{x}=\frac{3}{4}

⇒3x=240*4

⇒x=\frac{240*4}{3}

⇒x=320

That is, total solution is 320 ml.

Now, Spirit = Total solution - Varnish

⇒Spirit = 320ml-240ml

⇒Spirit = 80ml

Hence, if you use 240 ml of varnish, you need 80 ml of mineral spirit.

(3) Robison's tapestries all measure 1.5m long and 1m wide. First, we express dimensions in whole numbers by multiplying them by 10.

Then, dimensions are 15m long and 10m wide.

Now, Height : Width = 15:10

⇒\frac{Height}{Width} =\frac{15}{10}

⇒\frac{Height}{Width} =\frac{3}{2}

Hence, the ratio of tapestries' heights to width is 3:2.

Help please asappppppppp​
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

First Equation: 6a-23

Second Equation: 5a-20

Step-by-step explanation:

So, I think you want me to answer part 2...

For the first equation, we can see that the denominator stays the exact same, meaning the numerator will also not change.

For the second equation, we can see the denominator changed from a-3 to 5a-15. The denominator was simply multiplied by 5. Since the denominator was multiplied by five we must multiply the numerator by five as well.

5(a-4)

5a-20

Hope this helps :)
