Suppose line g is the line with equation y=x. Given A(9,-5), B(6,3), and C(-1,-6), what are the coordinates of the vertices of A'B'C' for the reflection?

(type an ordered pair)

A'=___
B'=___
C'=___​

Answers

Answers:

A ' = (-5, 9)

B '  = (3, 6)

C ' = (-6, -1)

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

Explanation:

When reflecting over the line y = x, we swap the locations of the x and y coordinates. For example, the point (5,7) becomes (7,5)

This means we have the following reflections

A(9,-5) moves to A ' (-5, 9)B(6,3) moves to B ' (3, 6)C(-1,-6) moves to C ' (-6, -1)

This operation is commonly done when determining the inverse of a graph. This is because the inverse basically undoes everything the original function applies. So this "backwards" nature of things means that x becomes y and vice versa.

Answer:

  a) 191 yards

  b) 40 yards

  c) 1.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  ΔPQR is a right triangle with the right angle at Q

  PQ = 40 yards; QR = 70 yards

  M is the midpoint of PR

  jogging rate is 150 yd/min

Find:

  a) the perimeter of ΔPQR to the nearest yard

  b) QM to the nearest yard

  c) the time to jog the path PQMRQP to the nearest tenth minute

Solution:

a) The length of PR can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

  PR² = PQ² +QR²

  PR² = 40² +70² = 6500

  PR = √6500 ≈ 80.62 . . . . yards

Then the perimeter is ...

  perimeter = PQ +QR +PR = 40 +70 +80.62 ≈ 191 yards

__

b) Segment QM divides triangle PQR into two isosceles triangles: PMQ and RMQ. The lengths MP, MQ, and MR are all equal to half the length of PR.

  QM = PR/2 = (80.62 yd)/2 = 40.31 yd

  QM ≈ 40 yd

__

c) The segments of path PQMRQP can be grouped to simplify the computation of the path length

  PQMRQP = PQ +QM +MR +RQ +QP = PQ +(PQ +QR +(QM +MR))

Since QM +MR = PR, the length in the outer parentheses is the perimeter of the triangle. Then the jogger's total path length is ...

  PQ + perimeter(ΔPQR) = 40 yd +191 yd = 231 yd

The time it takes to jog that path is ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = 231 yd/(150 yd/min) = 1.54 min ≈ 1.5 min

It takes about 1.5 minutes.

Ashley and Keely shared some Hershey Kisses in the ratio of 5:2. If Keely had 12 Hershey Kisses, how many did Ashley have?​

Answers

Answer:

Ashely had 30 kisses! Muah!

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Ashely to Keely is 5 : 2 and we know Keely had 12. Keely represents the 2 in this ratio, and how do we get from 2 to 12? We multiply by 6. We have to multiply by 6 on the other side too then. 5 times 6 is 30, so Ashely had 30 hershey kisses.

In real life, not in ratio form, Ashely had 30 kisses and Keely had 12.

The range of an ambulance service is a circular region bounded by the equation x^2 + y^2 = 400. A straight road within the service area is represented by y = 3x + 20. Find the length of the road that lies within the range of the ambulance service (round your answer to the nearest hundredth). Recall that the distance formula is [tex]d=\sqrt{x(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2[/tex]

Answers

The straight road crosses the boundaries of the range of the ambulance service at two points

The length of the road that lies within the range of the ambulance service is approximately 37.95

Reason:

The function that represents the ambulance circular service area is x² + y² = 400

The equation that represents the straight road,  y = 3·x + 20

Required:

Length of the road that lies within the range of he ambulance

Solution:

The length of the road is given by the distance between the intersection

points of the road and the ambulance service region as follows;

At the intercepts, we have;

The x, and y-values of the line and the circle are equal, therefore, we have;

At the intercept, y = 3·x + 20, which gives;

x² + y² = 400

x² + (3·x + 20)² = 400

x² + 9·x² + 120·x + 400 = 400

10·x² + 120·x + 400 - 400 = 0

10·x² + 120·x = 0

x² + 12·x = 0

x² + 12·x = x·(x + 12) = 0

x = 0, or -12

When x = 0, y = 3×0 + 20 = 20

When x = -12, y = 3×(-12) + 20 = -16

The intersection points of the line and the circle are;

A(0, 20), and B(-12, -16)

The length of the segment AB, d, is given as follows;

d = [tex]\sqrt{((-12) - 0)^2 + (-16 - 20)^2} = \sqrt{1440} =12 \cdot \sqrt{10}[/tex]

The length of the road that lies within the range of the ambulance service, d, given to the nearest hundredth = 12·√(10) ≈ 37.95

Determine which of the following equations define a function. For those that do not,
state the reason for your answer.
x +3=0

Answers

x + 3 = 0 is not a function because it is a vertical line.

A vertical line has undefined slope because all points the line have the same x-coordinate.

A function is a relation in which no two ordered pairs have the same first component (x-values or input) and different second components (y-values or output).

Remember that a function can only take on one output for each input. Since a vertical line has the same x-coordinates for all values of y-coordinates, then it means that it is not a function.

The graph of a linear function has a slope of 5 and passes through the point (2,5). What
is the y-intercept of the graph of the function?

Answers

Answer:

-5 is the y intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, lets do the steps in order.

1) Make a point-slope form equation.

We know that the format of it is y - y1 = slope(x - x1), so we know have to substitute our information in the equation.

y - 5 = 5(x - 2)

2) Convert our point-slope form equation into slope intercept form, and solve for the y-intercept.

y = slope(x) + b... right? So we now have to do math.

Distribute the right side of the equation to get :

y - 5 = 5x - 10

Now cancel out the -5, and then subtract on both sides.

y = 5x - 5

And -5 is your y intercept :)
