Answer:

5.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question states that this point is on segment LM, with the distance between this point and L\! being (3/5) the distance between L to M.

It could be shown (using a pair of similar right triangles) that the (3/5) ratio applies not only to the (sloped) distance between this point and L, but to the vertical distance as well.

The vertical distance between this point and L\! would also be (3/5) the vertical distance between \! L and M.

The vertical distance between \! L and M is the difference between their y coordinates, 8 - 1 = 7.

The vertical distance between this point and L would be (3/5) of the vertical distance between L\! and M\!, 7 \times (3/5) = 21/5.

Since M\! is above L\!, any point on the segment between these two points would also be above L. Add the vertical distance between \! L and the requested point to the y coordinate of L\!\! to find the y\! coordinate of the requested point: (21/5) + 1 = 26/5 = 5.2.

The domain of both f(x) = x - 6 and g(x) = x + 6 is all real numbers. What is the domain of h(x) = f(x)/g(x)?
arlik [135]
This is a quotient (division) of two functions we must be concerned with the fact that division by zero is undefined.

Since g(x) is in the divisor position, it cannot equal 0.
x+6 \neq 0
x \neq -6 Subtract 6 from both sides to solve.
So the domain is all real numbers except -6
Set notation {x | x ∈ R, x ≠ -6}
Interval notation (-∞,-6)∪(-6,∞)

5 1 point 34 is 68% of what number?​
Ilya [14]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Fastest method for calculating 34 is 68 percent of what number. Assume the unknown value is 'Y' 34 = 68% x Y. 34 = 68 / 100 x Y Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides of the equation by 68 we will arrive at: Y = 3 x 100 / 68. Y = 50%. Answer: 34 is 68 percent of 50
