Mathematics
1 answer:
alex41 [277]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming (a-1, 9) is in the form of (x,y):

9(a-1) - 5(9) = -9

9a - 9 - 45 = -9

9a = 45

a = 5

Measure of the interior angles of the triangle
scoray [572]

Answer:

Angle A: 45, Angle B: 110, and Angle C: 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is 180 degrees total. One angle is 25 degrees. 180- 25 leaves us with 155 degrees. We know that one angle is more than 65 degrees. 155-65 is 90. 90/2 is 45. Therefore, x= 45. Angle A: 45, Angle B: 110, and Angle C: 25. We can double check our work by adding 45+110+25= 180

21. Who is closer to Cameron? Explain.
pickupchik [31]

Problem 21

<h3>Answer:  Jamie is closer</h3>

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

Explanation:

  • A = Arthur's location = (20,35)
  • J = Jamie's location = (45,20)
  • C = Cameron's location = (65,40)

To find out who's closer to Cameron, we need to compute the segment lengths AC and JC. Then we pick the smaller of the two lengths.

We use the distance formula to find each length

Let's find the length of AC.

A = (x_1,y_1) = (20,35)\\\\C = (x_2,y_2) = (65,40)\\\\d = \text{Distance from A to C} = \text{length of segment AC}\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(20-65)^2 + (35-40)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-45)^2 + (-5)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{2025 + 25}\\\\d = \sqrt{2050}\\\\d \approx 45.2769257\\\\

The distance from Arthur to Cameron is roughly 45.2769257 units.

Let's repeat this process to find the length of segment JC

J = (x_1,y_1) = (45,20)\\\\C = (x_2,y_2) = (65,40)\\\\d = \text{Distance from J to C} = \text{length of segment JC}\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(45-65)^2 + (20-40)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-20)^2 + (-20)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{400 + 400}\\\\d = \sqrt{800}\\\\d \approx 28.2842712\\\\

Going from Jamie to Cameron is roughly 28.2842712 units

We see that segment JC is shorter than AC. Therefore, Jamie is closer to Cameron.

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

Problem 22

<h3>Answer:  Arthur is closest to the ball</h3>

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

Explanation:

We have these key locations:

  • A = Arthur's location = (20,35)
  • J = Jamie's location = (45,20)
  • C = Cameron's location = (65,40)
  • B = location of the ball = (35,60)

We'll do the same thing as we did in the previous problem. This time we need to compute the following lengths:

  • AB
  • JB
  • CB

These segments represent the distances from a given player to the ball. Like before, the goal is to pick the smallest of these segments to find out who is the closest to the ball.

The steps are lengthy and more or less the same compared to the previous problem (just with different numbers of course). I'll show the steps on how to get the length of segment AB. I'll skip the other set of steps because there's only so much room allowed.

A = (x_1,y_1) = (20,35)\\\\B = (x_2,y_2) = (35,60)\\\\d = \text{Distance from A to B} = \text{length of segment AB}\\\\d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(20-35)^2 + (35-60)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(-15)^2 + (-25)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{225 + 625}\\\\d = \sqrt{850}\\\\d \approx 29.1547595\\\\

Segment AB is roughly 29.1547595 units.

If you repeated these steps, then you should get these other two approximate segment lengths:

JB = 41.2310563

CB = 36.0555128

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

So in summary, we have these approximate segment lengths

  • AB = 29.1547595
  • JB = 41.2310563
  • CB = 36.0555128

Segment AB is the smallest of the trio, which therefore means Arthur is closest to the ball.

Which function is not a translation of f(x)=x2+17? f(x)=−x2−17 f(x)=(x−4)2 f(x)=(x+12)2 f(x)=(x−4)2+17
ruslelena [56]
F(x) = -x²-17 is not a translation.

A translation of this graph would either have something added to/subtracted from the end of the function (the c value) or something added or subtracted to x before it is squared.  f(x) = -x²-17 is a reflection, as the coefficient of x² is negative.

Every other choice has something either added to or subtracted from either x before it is squared or from the end.

leva [86]
Answer: 14 feet. a. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the sides of a right angle. By plugging in the sides of the wall, and solving for c, you can find the answer. 10^2 + 10^2 = c^2
| 100 + 100 = c^2 | 200 = c^2 | c = sqrt 200 | c = 14. The other way to solve this would be using the trig functions. You know that the angle between the hypotenuse and the wall side is 45 degrees, so you can use Sine to determine the hypotenuse. Sine is equal to opposite over hypotenuse. Sin (45) = 10/h | Sin (45) * h = 10 | h = 10/Sin (45) | h = 14. Both of the methods result in 14.

What are compatible number of 7233 divided by 84
valkas [14]
To me, do the math using compatible number, means to estimate
7233 can round to 8000
and 84 can round to 80
now, this makes it easy, you can do it mentally, which is 100

In more detailed, 
7233 can round to 7225
and 84 can round to 85
then, (not so obvious, but however) 85 times 85 equal 7225

so the compatible number of 7233 divided by 84, is 7225 and 85

I know it's a bit late, but hope it helps
