Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

With 12 of them red and 4 of them navy, it's 12 + 4 = 16 leaving 8, 24 - 16 = 8 and 8 goes into 24 three times so it'd be 1/3 simplified

Find the value of this pronumeral

Rina8888 [55]

<u>Answer</u>:

x = 70 ;

y = 50 .
_____________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
y = 50 ; since vertical angles are congruent.

180 – (50 + 60) = x ; since all angles in any triangle add up to 180 degrees.

↔ x = 180 – (50 + 60) = 180 – (110) = 70.

Plane A is descending toward the local airport, and plane B is ascending from the same airport. Plane A is descending at a rate

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: 2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Plane A's descent :

y = -2,500x + 14,000

Plane B's Ascent :

y = 4,000x + 1,000

where y = altitude x = minute

Time to be at the same altitude :

Being at the same altitude means ;

Plane A's descent = Plane B's Ascent

-2,500x + 14,000 = 4,000x + 1,000

-2500x - 4000x = 1000 - 14000

-6500x = - 13000

x = 13000 / 6500

x = 2

x = 2minutes.

Which is the inverse of the function a(d)=5d-3? And use the definition of inverse functions to prove a(d) and a-1(d) are inverse

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a(d) = 5d - 3$

Solving (a): Write as inverse function

$a(d) = 5d - 3$

Represent a(d) as y

$y = 5d - 3$

Swap positions of d and y

$d = 5y - 3$

Make y the subject

$5y = d + 3$

$y = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Replace y with a'(d)

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Prove that a(d) and a'(d) are inverse functions

$a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$ and $a(d) = 5d - 3$

To do this, we prove that:

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

Solving for $a(a'(d))$

$a(a'(d)) = a(\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5})$

Substitute $\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$ for d in $a(d) = 5d - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = 5(\frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}) - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = \frac{5d}{5} + \frac{15}{5} - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = d + 3 - 3$

$a(a'(d)) = d$

Solving for: $a'(a(d))$

$a'(a(d)) = a'(5d - 3)$

Substitute 5d - 3 for d in $a'(d) = \frac{d}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d - 3}{5} + \frac{3}{5}$

Add fractions

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d - 3+3}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = \frac{5d}{5}$

$a'(a(d)) = d$

Hence:

$a(a'(d)) = a'(a(d)) = d$

The figure shows the dimensions of a wall having a door and window of a room. Write an algebraic expression for the area of the

qwelly [4]

Answer:

Area of the wall to be painted = (11x² + 12x) square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure that should be attached to this question is missing. The figure was obtained and is attached to this solution provided.

From the image attached, it is given that the dimension of the rectangular wall to be painted is (4x+3) by (4x), the dimensions of the window is (2x) by (x) and the dimensions of the door is (x) by (3x).

Since, the window space and the door space cannot be painted along with the wall, the Area of the rectangular wall that will be painted will be given by the expression

(Total Area of the rectangular wall) - [(Area of window space) + (Area of door space)]

Area of a rectangular figure = Length × Breadth

Total area of rectangular wall = (4x+3) × 4x = (16x² + 12x) square units

Area of window space = (2x) × (x) = (2x²) square units

Area of door space = (x) × (3x) = (3x²) square units

Area of the wall to be painted = (16x² + 12x) - (2x² + 3x²)

= 16x² + 12x - 5x²

= (11x² + 12x) square units

Hope this Helps!!!
