What is the value of x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
fenix001 [56]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B, x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

Both triangles are similar with a ratio of 22.5/9

so using that an equation can be created like this, \frac{22.9}{9} = \frac{23.5}{x+4.4}

If simplified, 22.9(x + 4.44) = 23.5(9)

22.5x + 99 = 211.5

22.5x = 112.5

<u><em>x = 5</em></u>

Can the formula F=ma be a direct variation equation? If so, which variable would have to be held constant?
ANEK [815]
Yes it can be a direct variation.  it follows the form y = kx
The only variable that cannot be held constant is F, but we can hold the mass constant and vary the acceleration OR we can hold the acceleration constant and vary the mass.  Either one would work, but the easiest would be to vary the mass and hold the acceleration constant since we are all pulled by the same action gravity

A circle is centered at the origin and contains the point (-6, -8). What is the area of this circle?​
gogolik [260]

Answer:

314 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Centre of the circle = (0, 0)

Another point on the circle = (-6, -8)

\text {Radius = }\sqrt{(0 - (-6))^2 + (0- (-8))^2}

\text {Radius = }\sqrt{6^2 + 8^2}

\text {Radius = }\sqrt{100}

\text {Radius = }10

Area = π (10)² = 100π = 314 units²

About Exercise 2.3.1: Proving conditional statements by contrapositive Prove each statement by contrapositive
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

See proofs below

Step-by-step explanation:

A proof by counterpositive consists on assuming the negation of the conclusion and proving the negation of the hypothesis.

a) Assume that n is not odd. Then n is even, that is, n=2k for some integer k. Hence n²=4k²=2(2k²)=2t for some integer t=2k². Then n² is even, therefore n² is not odd. We have proved the counterpositive of this statement.

b) Assume that n is not even, then n is odd. Thus, n=2k+1 for some integer k. Now, n³=(2k+1)³=8k³+6k²+6k+1=2(4k³+3k²+3k)+1=2t+1 for the integer t=4k³+3k²+3k. Thus n³ is odd, that is, n³ is not even.

c) Suppose that n is not odd, that is, n is even. Now, n=2k for some integer k. Then 5n+3=10k+3=2(5k+1)+1, thus 5n+3 is odd, then 5n+3 is not even.

d) Suppose that n is not odd, then n is even. Now, n=2k for some integer k. Then n²-2n+7=4k²-4k+7=2(2k²-2k+3)+1. Hence n²-2n+7 is odd, that is, n²-2n+7 is not even.

e) Assume that -r is not irrational, then -r is rational. Since -1 is rational, then (-1)(-r)=r is rational. Thus r is not irrational.

f) Assume that 1/z is not irrational. Then 1/z is rational. Multiplucative inverses of rational numbers are rational, hence z is rational, that is, z is not irrational.

g) Suppose that z>y. We will prove that z³+zy²≤z²y+y³ is false, that is, we will prove that z³+zy²>z²y+y³. Multiply by the nonnegative number z² in the inequality z>y to get z³>z²y (here we assume z and y nonzero, in this case either z³>0=y³ is true or z³=0>y³ is true). On the other hand, multiply by z² (positive number) to get zy²>y³. Add both inequalities to obtain z³+zy²>z²y+y³ as required.

h) Suppose than n is even. Then n=2k, and n²=4k² is divisible by 4.

i) Assume that "z is irrational or y is irrational" is false. Then z is rational and y is rational. Rational numbers are closed under sum, then z+y is rational, that is, z+y is not irrational.
