Answer:

  10.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of AC is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (-4 -1)/(3 -(-1)) = -5/4

Then the slope of CB is the opposite reciprocal, 4/5. The equation of line CB in point-slope form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

  y -(-4) = 4/5(x -3) . . . . line CB

When y = 1 (to match the y-value of A), then ...

  1 +4 = 4/5(x -3)

  5(5/4) = (x -3) . . . . . multiply by 5/4

  6.25 +3 = x = 9.25 . . . . add 3

Point B is (9.25, 1).

The length of the hypotenuse is ...

  9.25 -(-1) = 10.25

postnew [5]

Answer:

258

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the two equations needed (x is the adult tickets and y is the student tickets)

x+y=372

6x+2y=1776

Solve by elimination

-2(x+y=372)

=-2x-2y=-744

Cancel like figures:

-2x-2y=-744

6x+2y=1776

= 4x=1032

x=258

A 6 sided number cube is tossed. what is the probability of rolling a 6 or an odd number?
Veronika [31]
For any probability the formula is P_{desired}=\frac{desired}{total}. In this case we have 4 desired outcomes (the odds, 1, 3 and 5, and also 6) out of 6 total sides, so our probability P_{oddor6} =\frac{odd or 6}{total sides}=\frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3}.

Mutually exclusive means the events cant occur at the same time. In our case it is not possible to roll both a 6 and an odd number at the same time since 6 is even. Therefore the events ARE mutually exclusive. 

Combine the two parts and C is the correct answer.  <span />

If f(x)=2x+3 and g(x)=x^2+1 find f(g(3))<br><br> Help!!<br> A.23<br> B.47<br> C.82<br> D.90
True [87]

Answer

A. 23

step-by-step explanation

g(x) =  {x}^{2} + 1

We put x=3 into the function g

\implies g(3)= {3}^{2} + 1

\implies \: g(3)=10

Also,

f(x)=2x +3

we substitute the value of g(3) into f

\implies f(g(3))=f(10)

\implies f(g(3))=f(10) = 2(10) + 3

\implies f(g(3))=23
