Answer:

To Decrease an amount in a given Ratio, we need to multiply by a fraction that is less than one. For example, in scaling down a recipe for four people into a recipe for 3 people, we would use the ratio of 3 : 4 which means we would multiply all our recipe amounts.

The diagram represents the factorization of x2 – 9x + 18. It is partially completed.
vitfil [10]
The answer would be C) <span>–3x and –6x

using the headers for both the top and left side of the diagram, we can see that we need to add a value for when x is multiplied with -3, and when x is multiplied with -6, thus C is our answer</span>

42 = -7 (z - 3)<br><br> z = ?
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand                 42 = -7(z - 3)

                             42 = -7z + 21

Simplify                 7z = -42 + 21

                             7z = -21

Clear z                    z = \frac{-21}{7}

                              z = -3

Prove algebraically that the straight line with equation x =2y+5 is a tangent to the circle with equation x ² +y ²
mrs_skeptik [129]

The intersection point is only one. Then the equation of the line is tangent to the circle at point (1, -2).

<h3>What is a circle?</h3>

It is a locus of a point drawn an equidistant from the center. The distance from the center to the circumference is called the radius of the circle.

Prove algebraically that the straight line with equation x = 2y + 5 is a tangent to the circle with equation x² + y² = 5.

x = 2y + 5 ...1

x² + y² = 5 ...2

If the intersection of the point of the circle and line is one. Then the line is tangent to the circle.

Then from equations 1 and 2, we have

               (2y + 5)² + y² = 5

4y² + 25 + 20y + y² - 5 = 0

            5y² + 20y + 20 = 0

    5y² + 10y + 10y + 20 = 0

     5y (y + 2) + 10(y + 2) = 0

              (5y + 10)(y + 2) = 0

                                    y = -2, -2

Then the value of y is unique then the value of x will be unique.

The value of x will be

x = 2(-2) + 5

x = -4 + 5

x = 1

The intersection point is only one. Then the equation of the line is tangent to the circle at point (1, -2).

More about the circle link is given below.

What is the explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence shown in the graph?
Harman [31]

Answer:

a(n) = 9.5 + 2(n - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe that each new term is obtained by adding 2 to the previous term.  Thus, the common difference is 2 and the first term is 9.5.

Then a(n) = 9.5 + 2(n - 1)
