Answer:

B(2, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points:

A(-1, -9) and M(0.5, -2.5)

Let the coordinates of B are (x, y)

Use midpoint formula to determine the point B:

0.5 = (- 1 + x)/2 ⇒ 1 = -1 + x ⇒ x = 1 + 1 = 2
-2.5 = (-9 + y)/2 ⇒ -5 = -9 + y ⇒ y = -5 + 9 = 4

JulsSmile [24]

Answer: The price of each small box is $4.8 and the price of each large box is $10.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Price of each small box, y= price of each large box.

As per given,

3x+2y= 36 ...(i)

4x+y= 30 ...(ii)

Multiplying 2 to (ii), we get

8x+2y =60...(iii)

Subtract (i) from (iii), we get

5x= 24

x= 4.8

From (ii)

4(4.8)+y= 30

19.2+y=30

y= 10.8

Hence, the price of each small box is $4.8 and the price of each large box is $10.8.

You work at a pioneer historical site. On this site you have handcarts. One cart has a handle that connects to the center of the

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

a) see below

b) radius = 16.4 in (1 d.p.)

c) 18°. Yes contents will remain. No, handle will not rest on the ground.

d) Yes contents would spill. Max height of handle = 32.8 in (1 d.p.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

A chord is a line segment with endpoints on the circumference of the circle.

The diameter is a chord that passes through the center of a circle.

Therefore, the spokes passing through the center of the wheel are congruent chords.

The spokes on the wheel represent the radii of the circle. Spokes on a wheel are usually evenly spaced, therefore the congruent central angles are the angles formed when two spokes meet at the center of the wheel.

Part b

The tangent of a circle is always perpendicular to the radius.

The tangent to the wheel touches the wheel at point B on the diagram. The radius is at a right angle to this tangent. Therefore, we can model this as a right triangle and use the tan trigonometric ratio to calculate the radius of the wheel (see attached diagram 1).

$\sf \tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}$

where:

$\theta$ is the angle
O is the side opposite the angle
A is the side adjacent the angle

Given:

$\theta$ = 20°
O = radius (r)
A = 45 in

Substituting the given values into the tan trig ratio:

$\implies \sf \tan(20^{\circ})=\dfrac{r}{45}$

$\implies \sf r=45\tan(20^{\circ})$

$\implies \sf r=16.37866054...$

Therefore, the radius is 16.4 in (1 d.p.).

Part c

The measure of an angle formed by a secant and a tangent from a point outside the circle is half the difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.

If the measure of the arc AB was changed to 72°, then the other intercepted arc would be 180° - 72° = 108° (since AC is the diameter).

$\implies \sf new\: angle=\dfrac{108^{\circ}-72^{\circ}}{2}=18^{\circ}$

As the handle of the cart needs to be no more than 20° with the ground for the contents not to spill out, the contents will remain in the handcart at an angle of 18°.

The handle will not rest of the ground (see attached diagram 2).

Part d

This can be modeled as a right triangle (see diagram 3), with:

height = (48 - r) in
hypotenuse ≈ 48 in

Use the sin trig ratio to find the angle the handle makes with the horizontal:

$\implies \sf \sin (\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}$

$\implies \sf \sin (\theta)=\dfrac{48-r}{48}$

$\implies \sf \sin (\theta)=\dfrac{48-45\tan(20^{\circ})}{48}$

$\implies \theta = 41.2^{\circ}\:\sf(1\:d.p.)$

As 41.2° > 20° the contents will spill out the back.

To find the maximum height of the handle from the ground before the contents start spilling out, find the height from center of the wheel (setting the angle to its maximum of 20°):

$\implies \sin(20^{\circ})=\dfrac{h}{48}$

$\implies h=48\sin(20^{\circ})$

Then add it to the radius:

$\implies \sf max\:height=48\sin(20^{\circ})+45\tan(20^{\circ})=32.8\:in\:(1\:d.p.)$

(see diagram 4)

Circle Theorem vocabulary

Secant: a straight line that intersects a circle at two points.

Arc: the curve between two points on the circumference of a circle

Intercepted arc: the curve between the two points where two chords or line segments (that meet at one point on the other side of the circle) intercept the circumference of a circle.

Tangent: a straight line that touches a circle at only one point.

How i can answer this question, NO LINKS, if you answer correctly i will give u brainliest!

Firlakuza [10]

Answer: C) Today's soup will taste the same

====================================================

Explanation:

The usual recipe has 9 tomatoes for every 12 bowls. This forms the ratio 9:12.

Divide both parts of the ratio by 12 to end up with 0.75:1

9/12 = 0.75
12/12 = 1

The ratio 0.75:1 means that there are 0.75 tomatoes for each bowl.

--------------

Then the restaurant updates the recipe to involve 6 tomatoes for every 8 bowls, leading to the ratio 6:8. Divide both parts by 8

6/8 = 0.75
8/8 = 1

The ratio 6:8 is the same as 0.75:1

---------------

We get the same ratio (0.75:1) each time we turn that second number into a 1, which means that each bowl involves the same number of tomatoes. Therefore, the taste should be the same.

Of course the concept of taste is subjective, meaning that the taste could easily vary over time even if you involved the same number of tomatoes. Also, the taste may vary from person to person. However, there should be an objective way to measure the "tomato"ness of each bowl.

Kitty [74]

Answer:

3.3333333333333...

Step-by-step explanation:

5 (2/3) = 3.33333333333 (repeating decimal)

Also,

10 (2/3) = 6.66666666666666666 (repeating decimal)

6.66666666666666 / 2 = 3.33333333333333 (repeating decimal)
