Question 9 math homework

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Things To Keep In Mind:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (Pythagorean Theorem)

C^2 is usually the hypotenuse or the slanted side across from the right angle

(The right angle is 90 degrees and is marked with a square)

a and b can be switched around

a=5

b=?

c=10

5^2+b^2=10^2

5^2=25

10^2=100

25+b^2=100

-25        -25

b^2=75

b=square root of 75

The answer is D

Answer:

y = -2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=y coordinate (2in this case)
x=x coordinate (-2 in this case)
m=slope (-2 in this case)
b= y int. (we dont know the number because it doesn’t label it so we just put the letter and you can solve for b if the question tells you so)

so the answer is
y=mx+b (slope int. form)

Solve the following word problem by creating an algebraic equation and solving for the unknown value.

Madison and Mackenzie made $87 selling girl scout cookies. Madison made $15 more than 2 times as much as Mackenzie made. How much money did Mackenzie make?

Answers

Answer:

2 equations were used : x + y = 87 and x = 2y + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Defining variables:

Madison = x

Mackenzie = y

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

Here's what we know:

Madison and Mackenzie made $87 selling girl scout cookies (TOGETHER). Therefore: x + y = 87

We also know that Madison made $15 more than 2 times as much as Mackenzie made.
Therefore: x = 2y + 15

Now we can substitute the 2nd equation (x = 2y + 15).

This gives us (2y + 15) + y = 87

After solving (2y + 15) + y = 87, we get y = 24

Okay, so now we know Mackenzie sold $24 worth of girlscout cookies...

this is also known as y = 24

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

If we were to find out how much madison made aswell, here's what we would do.

We will put y = 24 back into the original equation  (x + y = 87).

x + 24 = 87

x = 63

Madison sold $63 worth of girlscout cookies.

the two equations used are x+y=87 along with x=2y+15

Two square-shaped fields are next to each other. The perimeter of each field is 28 feet. The two fields are joined together to form a single rectangular field. What is the perimeter of the rectangular field?
A. 42 feet
B. 49 feet
C. 56 feet
D. 63 feet

Answers

Abecause one length is 7feet.The middle is gone so eight lengths of 7 into 6 lengths

Answer: A. 42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If a square has a perimeter of 28 feet, then each side would be 7 feet long because a square has 4 equal sides.

So if they are joined together to make a rectangle, the short side would be 7 feet long and the longer side would be 14 feet long.

You then add all the sides together so:

7 + 7 + 14 + 14 = 42 feet

Write an exponential function to model the data in each table. Identify the growth or decay factor. (23) Picture

Answers

The model of the exponential functions show that

23: table 1 is a decay with a rate of 50%24. tables 2 is a growth with a rate of 10%

How to write exponential function to model the data in each table

Considering the given problem,  f(x) = a(b)^x

the starting = a

the base = b

the exponents = x

23. Table 1

At x = 0

f(x) = a(b)^x

(b)^0 = 1

solving for a

4 = a * (b)^0

4 = a

At x = 1

f(x) = a(b)^x

(b)^1 = b

substituting known variables

2 = 4(b)^1

b = 2/4

b = 0.5

for decreasing rate, b = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

rate, r = 50%

24. Table 2

At x = 0

f(x) = a(b)^x

(b)^0 = 1

solving for a

100 = a * (b)^0

100 = a

At x = 1

f(x) = a(b)^x

(b)^1 = b

substituting known variables

110 = 100(b)^1

b = 110/100

b = 1.10

for increasing rate, b = 1 + r = 1.10, r = 0.10

rate, r = 10%

The base is what determines exponential growth or decay

ABC is a right triangle with vertices B (9, 4) and C (3, 9).

What are the coordinates of vertex A?

Enter your answers in the boxes.

Answers

Answer:

A (3, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

A has to be positioned horizontally along B. This means its x coordinate is the same as x-coordinate of B which is 4

A also has to be positioned vertically below C. This means its y coordinate is the same as the y-coordinate of C. So y-coordinate of A is 3

So coordinates of A are (3, 4)

(3,4) is the answer

consider the decimal -0.022 . what is the decimal as a simplified fraction?

could you also explain how you got your answer you dont have to but it would be helpful :))))

Answers

Answer:

-11/500

Step-by-step explanation:

-0.022

To change the decimal number into a fraction, start by reading the number.

The second 2 is in the thousandths place. This number is read as:

"negative twenty-two thousandths"

Now write a fraction with 22 over 1000, and with a negative sign.

-0.022 = -22/1000

Now we reduce. 22 and 1000 are divisible by 2.

-0.022 = -22/1000 = -11/500

The model of the exponential functions

f(x) = 40(1.25)ˣg(x) = 10,000(0.84)ˣf(x) = g(x) at x = 113.11

How to model each pair of the functions with exponential function

Considering the given problem,  f(x) = a(b)^x

the starting = a

the base = b

the exponents = x

25.

F: initial value of 100 decreasing at a rate of 5%

a = 100, rate, r = 5%, b = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

f(x) = 100(0.95)ˣ

G: initial value of 20 increasing at a rate of 5%

a = 20, rate, r = 5%, b = 1 + 0.05 = 1.05

g(x) = 20(1.05)ˣ

solving for f(x) = g(x)

20(1.05)ˣ = 100(0.92)ˣ

divide through by 20

(1.05)ˣ = 5(0.92)ˣ

x㏒(1.05) = ㏒(5 + (0.92)ˣ)

x㏒(1.05) = ㏒5 - x㏒0.92

x㏒(1.05) + x㏒0.92 = ㏒5

-0.015x = ㏒5

x = -46.53

26.

f: initial value of 40 increasing at a rate of 25%

a = 40, r = 25%, b = 1 + 0.25 = 1.25

f(x) = 40(1.25)ˣ

g: initial value of 10,000 decreasing at a rate of 16%

a = 10,000, r = 16%, b = 1 - 0.16 = 0.84

g(x) = 10,000(0.84)ˣ

solving for f(x) = g(x)

40(1.25)ˣ = 10,000(0.84)ˣ

divide through by 40

(1.25)ˣ = 250(0.84)ˣ

x㏒(1.25) = ㏒(250 + (0.84)ˣ)

x㏒(1.25) = ㏒250 - x㏒0.84

x㏒(1.25) + x㏒0.84 = ㏒250

0.0212x = ㏒250

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 2/3= -1.67 min

-1 3/8 = -1.375 min

so 7he least to greatest is

-1.8 < 1 2/3 < 1.45 < 1- 3/8 < 9.3

The ordered list from least to greatest is -1.8 < -1 2/3 < -1.45 < -1 3/8

What is a mixed fraction?

A fraction represented with its quotient and remainder is a mixed fraction. For example, 2 1/3 is a mixed fraction, where 2 is the quotient, 1 is the remainder.

So, a mixed fraction is a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction.

According to the given question:

Gina's relative time list is [tex]-1\frac{2}{3}[/tex] , -1.45, -1.8, [tex]-1\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Converting mixed fractions to decimal forms to make comparison easy.

-1 2/3 = -1 + 2/3 = - 1.6 min

-1 3/8 = -1 + 3/8 = -1.375 min

Hence the new list is - 1.6, - 1.45, - 1.8, - 1.375

Arranging from least to greatest as follows

-1.8 < - 1.6 < - 1.45 < - 1.375

- 1.8 < -1 2/3 < -1.45 < -1 3/8
