Answer:

3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that a regular pentagon has 5 sides of equal length

If the perimeter of the pentagon is given, then the length of each side is simply the perimeter divide by 5 or,

length of each side

= perimeter ÷ 5

= (15x + 35) ÷ 5

= (15/5) x + (35/5)

= 3x + 7

1) Anna and Jason have summer jobs stuffing envelopes for two different companies. Anna earns $20 for every 400 envelopes she fi
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A) i)

For Anna initially, she has $0 from making 0 envelopes. After making 400 envelopes she has $20. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (400, 20). Using the equation of a line:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{20-0}{400-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{20} x

The table is:

x:   200     400       600     800     1000

y:    10        20          30        40       50

ii)

For Jason initially, he has $0 from making 0 envelopes. For every 250 envelopes he has $10. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{10-0}{250-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{25} x

The table is:

x:   200     400       600     800     1000

y:    8         16           24        32       40

The graph is plotted using geogebra online graphing

b) From the table above we can see that Anna makes more stuffing than Jason.

c) Anna has a savings of $100. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 100) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-100=\frac{20-0}{400-100}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{15} x+100

We can see from the graph that there is a y intercept at 100. That is the earnings starts from 100.

The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (initial value)

For the first graph, the slope is 1/20 and the initial value is 0 while for the second graph the slope is 1/15 and the initial value is 100

D) The line pass through (10, 10) and (100, 40), hence:

y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-10=\frac{40-10}{100-10}(x-10)\\\\y-10=\frac{1}{3} (x-10)\\\\y=\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{20}{3}

The altitude of a triangle is 1cm shorter than the base. If the area of the triangle is 15cm2, calculate the altitude.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that the altitude of this triangle is 1cm shorter than the base

  • Let H be our altitude and B our base and A the area of the triangle
  • A= (B*H)/2 ⇒ 15=(B*H)/2
  • H is 1cm shorter than B ⇒ B=H+1
  • H*(H+1)/2=15 ⇒ H*(H+1)=30⇒ H²+H=30⇒H²+H-30+0

that's a quadratic equation . Let's calculate the dicriminant .

Let Δ be the dicriminant

  • a=1
  • b=1
  • c= -30
  • Δ=b²-4*a*c = 1²-4*1*(-30)=1+4*30=121≥0
  • Δ≥0⇔ that we have two solutions x and y
  • x= (-1-\sqrt{121})/2= (-1-11)/2= -6
  • y= (-1+\sqrt{121})/2= 10/2 = 5

We have a negative value and a positive one

The altitude is a distance so it can't be negative

H= 5cm

Write (8a-^3) -2/3 in simplest form
Anna71 [15]

(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = \frac{a^2}{4}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given that,</u></em>

(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}

We have to write in simplest form

<em><u>Use the following law of exponent</u></em>

(a^m)^n = a^{mn}

Using this, simplify the given expression

(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = 8^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^{ -3 \times \frac{-2}{3}}\\\\Simplifying\ we\ get\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = 8^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^2\\\\We\ know\ that\ 8 = 2^3\\\\Therefore\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} =2^3^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^2\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} =2^{-2} \times a^2\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = \frac{a^2}{4}

Thus the given expression is simplified
