Help answer asap pls ---------

Reika [66]

Answer:

d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know what d would be when x = -1, so we can start off by plugging in -1 for x to get the following equation: $\sqrt{8 - (-1)} = 2(-1)+d$ . On the left hand side, 2 negatives become a positive sign, so the -(-1) becomes a +1, and 8+1 would equal 9. On the right hand side, we just multiply 2 and -1 to get -2. So, the equation now looks like this: $\sqrt{9} = d-2$ . We know that $\sqrt{9}$ = 3, so we would get 3 = d-2. THen we would add 2 to both sides to get d = 5. Hope this helps!

Comparing the two ratios 2/4 and 1/2 2/4 is larger

kumpel [21]

Answer:

3.5 : 7 > 1.2 : 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Compare the ratios 4 : 5 and 2 : 3.

Solution:

Express the given ratios as fraction

4 : 5 = 4/5 and 2 : 3 =2/3

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 5 and 3 is 15.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 15, we have

4/5 = (4 ×3)/(5 ×3) = 12/15 and 2/3 = (2 ×5)/(3 ×5) = 10/15

Clearly, 12 > 10

Now, 12/15 > 10/15

Therefore, 4 : 5 > 2 : 3.

2. Compare the ratios 5 : 6 and 7 : 9.

Solution:

Express the given ratios as fraction

5 : 6 = 5/6 and 7 : 9 =7/9

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 6 and 9

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 6 and 9 is 18.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 18, we have

5/6 = (5 ×3)/(6 ×3) = 15/18 and 7/9 = (7 ×2)/(9 ×2) = 14/18

Clearly, 15 > 14

Now, 15/18 > 14/18

Therefore, 5 : 6 > 7 : 9.

3. Compare the ratios 1.2 : 2.5 and 3.5 : 7.

Solution:

1.2 : 2.5 = 1.2/2.5 and 3.5 : 7 =3.5/7

1.2/2.5 = (1.2 ×10)/(2.5 ×10 ) = 12/25 and 3.5/7 = (3.5 ×10)/(7 ×10) = 35/70 = 1/2

[We removed the decimal point from the ratios now, we will compare the ratio]

Now find the L.C.M (least common multiple) of 25 and 2

The L.C.M (least common multiple) of 25 and 2 is 50.

Making the denominator of each fraction equal to 50, we have

= 12/25 = (12 ×2)/(25 ×2) = 24/50 and 1/2 = (1 ×25)/(2 ×25) = 25/50

Now, 25/50 > 24/50

Therefore, 3.5 : 7 > 1.2 : 2.5.

Use the diagram of the right triangle above and round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer: a = 23 ft.

Reasoning:

The question asks for the value of the leg a, given the tangent of the opposite angle and the length of the adjacent-leg, b.

The ratio that relates the three parameters is:

tan(A) = opposite-leg / adjacent-leg = a / b = a / 23 ft

Solve for a, wich is the unknown:

a = 23ft * tan(A) = 23ft * 1.0 = 23 ft

Answer: 23 ft.
