What is x, the distance across the lake?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

45.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You do the linear length multiplied by the longitudinal length

Answer 2

The distance across the lake is 320 ft.

Given is a scenario of a lake, a survey crew has laid out the concept of similar triangles to find the distance across the lake.

The figure shows the base of the larger triangles is the distance across the lake. [please refer to the figure attached]

The dimensions of the imaginary triangles are 30 ft, 30 ft, 40 ft and 240 ft, 240 ft, x ft.

Here, x is the distance across the lake which we are asked to find.

Using the definition of the similar triangles,

Two triangles are considered similar if their corresponding angles are equal, and the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.

So,

[tex]\frac{240}{30} = \frac{x}{40}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{240 \times 40}{30}[/tex]

x = 320

Hence the distance across the lake is 320 ft.

B) 3x to the power of 2 -11x -20
C) y to the power of 2 + 13y+36
D) b to the power of 2 -15b + 36

Answer:

A.) [tex]2x^2 + 13x - 7[/tex]

B.) [tex]3x^2 - 11x - 20[/tex]

C.) [tex]y^2 + 13y + 36[/tex]

D.) [tex]b^2 - 15b + 36[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For all of these you want to multiply the first thingy (Ex. x) in the first parenthesis by the first in the second parenthesis (Ex. 2x) plus the first one in the first (Ex. x) times the second one in the second (Ex. -1) plus the second one in the first one (Ex. 7) times the first one in the second parenthesis (Ex. 2x)  plus the second one in the first parenthesis (Ex. 7) times the second one in the second (Ex. -1)

A.) (x + 7)(2x - 1) = (2x * x) + (-1 * x) + (7 * 2x) + (7 * -1) = 2x^2 -x + 14x - 7 = 2x^2 + 13x - 7

B.) (3x + 4)(x - 5) = (3x * x) + (3x * -5) + (4 * x) + (4 * -5) = 3x^2 - 15x + 4x - 20 = 3x^2 - 11x - 20

C.) (y + 9) (y + 4) = (y * y) + (4 * y) + (9 * y) + (9 * 4) = y^2 + 4y + 9y + 36 = y^2 + 13y + 36

D.) (b - 12)(b - 3) = (b * b) + (b * -3) + (-12 * b) + (-12 * -3) = b^2 - 3b - 12b + 36 = b^2 - 15b + 36

Find the length of side x in simplest radical form with a rational denominator.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] x = 6\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 45°

Adjacent side = 6

Hypotenuse = x

Applying trigonometric ratio, we have:

[tex] cos(45) = \frac{6}{x} [/tex]

Multiply both sides by x

[tex] x*cos(45) = 6 [/tex]

Divide both sides by cos(45)

[tex] x = \frac{6}{cos(45)} [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{6}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} [/tex] (cos 45 = √2/2)

[tex] x = \frac{6}*{\frac{2}{\sqrt{2}} [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{12}{\sqrt{2}} [/tex]

Rationalize

[tex] x = \frac{12*\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}*\sqrt{2} [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{12*\sqrt{2}}{2} [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{6*\sqrt{2}}{1} [/tex]

[tex] x = 6\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Answer:

0.19 = 19/100

19/100 = 19%

Step-by-step explanation:

take 0.19 x 100 = 19

that's where u get 19% and 19 over 100 from.

Answer:

0.19 = 19/100 = 19%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Start with 0.19 (the given)

2. Read it out loud "19 hundredths"

3. Write down 19 out of 100 because that's what you said in the last step (if it were "0.3" you would write "3/10" because you read it as "three tenths"

4. Check if you can simplify. In this case you cannont

5. If the fraction is out of 100 (which in this case it is) simply write the numerator as the percent "19" is the numerator and it IS out of 100. You would write 19%

Answers

Answer:

FV= $2,041.29

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment (PV)= $1,500

Number of periods (n)= 7 years

Interest rate (i)= 4.5% = 0.045

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 1,500*(1.045^7)

FV= $2,041.29

A dish washer manufacturer introduced a new type of dish washer and conducted a survey on the new product. The survey showed 40% of the consumers had seen an advertisement for the new product, 20% had tried the new product, and 15% had both seen an advertisement and tried the new product. Let event A denote that the consumers had seen an ad for the new product, and event B denote that the consumers had tried the new product. What is the probability a randomly selected consumer had either seen an advertisement or tried the new product

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(A \cup B) =0.45[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

Consumers seen the soap [tex]P_A=40\% =0.40[/tex]

Consumers used the soap [tex]P_B=20\% =0.2[/tex]

Consumers seen/tried the soap [tex]P_x=15\% =0.15[/tex]

Generally the probability that consumers have seen and tried the soap is

[tex]P(A \cup B=P(A)+P(B)-P(A \cap B[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cup B=0.4+0.2-0.15[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cup B) =0.45[/tex]

Given points A(2,1,3) and B(0,5,0), find a point C in the xy-plane that creates an isosceles right triangle such that:_______

a. AB and BC are the legs of the right triangle
b. AB is the hypotenuse of the right triangle (for part ii, just doing all the set-up work is sufficient; you do not need to solve and find the points)

Answers

Answer:

a.)Point C will be either (4.82, 7.41) or ( -4.82, 2.59)

b.) -x² + 2x + 6y - y² - 5= 0  , 8y - 4x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

As given A(2,1,3) and B(0,5,0)

a.)

We have to find C  in the xy-plane

⇒ C is of the form (x, y, 0)    ( Because in xy plane , z coordinate is zero)

Now, given AB and BC are the legs of the right triangle .

AB = (0, 5, 0) - (2, 1, 3) = ( -2, 4, -3)

BC = (x, y, 0) - (0, 5, 0) = ( x, y-5, 0)

As AB and BC are legs of triangle

⇒AB is perpendicular to BC

⇒(AB).(BC) = 0

⇒( -2, 4, -3).( x, y-5, 0) = 0

⇒ -2x + 4(y-5) -0 = 0

⇒ -2x + 4y- 20 = 0

⇒ -x + 2y- 10 = 0

⇒ 2y = 10 + x

⇒ y = 5 + [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]         ......(1)

As ABC is making an isosceles right triangle

It means two sides of the triangle are equal

Now,

|AB| = √(-2)² + (4)² + (-3)² = √4+16+9 = √29

|BC| = √(x)² + (y-5)² + 0² = √(x)² + (y-5)²

Now,

AS AB = BC

⇒|AB| = |BC|

⇒|AB|² = |BC|²

⇒29 = (x)² + (y-5)²

⇒29 = (x)² + (5 + [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] -5)²

⇒29 = (x)² + ( [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex] )²

⇒29 = x²( 1 + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ) = x²(  [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] )

⇒ x² = [tex]\frac{116}{5}[/tex] = 23.2

⇒ x = 4.82 , -4.82

⇒y = 7.41 , 2.59

so, Point C will be either (4.82, 7.41) or ( -4.82, 2.59)

b.)

As given AB is the hypotenuse of the right triangle

S, AC and CB will perpendicular to each other

Now,

AC = (x, y, 0) - ( 2, 1, 3) = ( x-2, y-1, -3)

CB = (0, 5, 0) - (x, y, 0) = (-x, 5-y, 0)

As, AC and CB is perpendicular

⇒(AC).(CB) = 0

⇒( x-2, y-1, -3).(-x, 5-y, 0) = 0

⇒(x-2)(-x) + (y-1)(5-y) - 0 = 0

⇒-x² + 2x + 5y - y² - 5 + y = 0

⇒-x² + 2x + 6y - y² - 5= 0    ..........(2)

As ABC is making an isosceles right triangle

It means two sides of the triangle are equal

Now,

|AC| = √(x-2)² + (y-1)² + (0-3)² = √(x-2)² + (y-1)² + 9

|BC| = √(x)² + (y-5)² + 0² = √(x)² + (y-5)²

Now,

AS AC = BC

⇒|AC| = |BC|

⇒|AC|² = |BC|²

⇒(x-2)² + (y-1)² + 9  = (x)² + (y-5)²

⇒x² + 4 - 4x + y² + 1 - 2y + 9 = x² + y² + 25 - 10y

⇒ 4 - 4x + 1 - 2y + 9 = 25 - 10y

⇒14 - 4x - 2y  = 25 - 10y

⇒10y - 2y - 4x = 25 - 14

⇒8y - 4x = 11            ........(3)

Now, we have 2 equations

-x² + 2x + 6y - y² - 5= 0  , 8y - 4x = 11

Solve these equations to find x, y
