8 0

Answer:

(2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The scale factor is the number used to multiply the pre-image coordinates.

The image of the point (4, -8) is (2, -4). Each coordinate is 1/2 the corresponding coordinate in the pre-image.

Add three data values to the following data set so the mean increases by 10 but the median does not change. The numbers are 42 3

777dan777 [17]

In order the numbers are 20, 29, 32, 37, 42.
So that means the median is 32. In order for the median to stay the same one of the three data values must be 32 as well as adding a number to each side of the ends. One 32 or less another 32or more.
The mean right now is: 20+29+32+37+42=160 and there are 5 values.
Mean: 160/5=32
For it to increase by 10 it has to be 42.
extra 3 numbers I used were 31, 32, & 113 (those are your answer)

A 140 kg camera is suspended by two wires over a 40 metre wide football field to get shots of the action from above. At one poin

Katen [24]

Answer:

Please red the answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the length of each cable you use the Newton second law for each component of the forces involved in the situation.

For the x component you have:

$T_1cos\theta_1-T_2cos\theta_2=0$ (1)

T1: tension of the first cable = 1500N

T2: tension of the second cable = 800N

θ1: angle between the horizontal and the first cable

θ2: angle between the horizontal and the first cable

For the y component you have:

$T_1sin\theta_1+T_2sin\theta_2-W=0$ (2)

W: weight of the camera = Mg = (140kg)(9.8m/s^2) = 1372N

You can squared both equations (1) and (2) and the sum the two equations:

$T_1^2cos^2\theta_1=T_2^2cos^2\theta_2\\\\T_1^2sin^2\theta_1=T_2^2sin^2\theta_2-2WT_2sin\theta_2+W^2$

Then, you sum the equations:

$T_1^2(cos^2\theta_1+sin^2\theta_1)=T_2^2(sin^2\theta_2+cos^2\theta_2)-2Wsin\theta_2+W^2$ (3)

Next, you use the following identity:

$sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta=1$

and you obtain in the equation (3):

$T_1^2=T_2^2-2WT_2sin\theta_2+W^2\\\\sin\theta_2=\frac{T_2^2-T_1^2+W^2}{2WT_2}=\frac{(800N)^2-(1500)^2+(1372N)^2}{2(800N)(1372N)}=0.066\\\\\theta_2=sin^{-1}0.066=27.23\°$

With this values you can calculate the value of the another angle, by using the equation (1):

$\theta_1=cos^{-1}(\frac{T_2cos(27.23\°)}{T_1})=cos^{-1}(\frac{(800N)(cos27.23\°)}{1500N})\\\\\theta_1=61.69\°$

Now, you can calculate the length of each cable by using the information about the width of the football field. You use the following trigonometric relation:

$l_1cos\theta_1=40-d\\\\l_2cos\theta_2=d\\\\$

d: distance to the right side of the field

By using the cosine law you can fins a system of equation and then you can calculate the values of l1 and l2.

a rectangular lawn has an area of a^3 - 125. use the difference of cubes to find out the dimensions of the rectangle.

ANEK [815]

The area of a rectangle is the product of its dimensions

The dimensions of the rectangle are: $\mathbf{Length = a -5}$ and $\mathbf{Width = a^2 + 5a + 25}$

The area is given as:

$\mathbf{Area = a^3 - 125}$

Express 125 as 5^3

$\mathbf{Area = a^3 - 5^3}$

Apply difference of cubes

$\mathbf{Area = (a - 5)(a^2 + 5a + 5^2)}$

$\mathbf{Area = (a - 5)(a^2 + 5a + 25)}$

The area of a rectangle is:

$\mathbf{Area = Length \times Width}$

So, by comparison:

$\mathbf{Length = a -5}$

$\mathbf{Width = a^2 + 5a + 25}$

15/40 in lowest term I need it so bad now

Vesnalui [34]

In order to reduce ANY fraction to lowest terms, find any common factors
of the numerator and denominator, and divide them both by it. If they still
have a common factor, then divide them by it again. Eventually, they won't
have any common factor except ' 1 ', and then you'll know that the fraction is
in lowest terms.

Do 15 and 40 have any common factors ?
Let's see . . .

The factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, and 15 .
The factors of 40 are 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, and 40 .

Ah hah ! Do you see that ' 5 ' on both lists ? That's a common factor.

So 15/40 is NOT in lowest terms.

Divide the numerator and denominator both by 5 :

15 / 40 = 3 / 8

3 and 8 don't have any common factor except ' 1 '.
So 3/8 is the same number as 15/40, but in lowest terms.
