Answers

The perimeter of the entire figure is 62.8 cm.

Given, that the diameter of the inner semicircles is 9 cm and the width between the outer and inner semicircles is 2 cm.

The radius of the inner semicircle =4.5 cm and the radius of outer semicircle =5.5 cm (∵Diameter=9+2=11 cm)

We need to find the perimeter of the entire figure.

What is the perimeter?

A perimeter is a closed path that encompasses, surrounds, or outlines either a two-dimensional shape or a one-dimensional length. The perimeter of a circle or an ellipse is called its circumference.

We know that, the circumference of a semicircle=πr and the circumference of two semicircles=2πr

Thus, the circumference of inner semicircles=2×3.14×4.5=28.26 cm

The circumference of outer semicircles=2×3.14×5.5=34.54 cm

The perimeter of the entire figure=28.26+34.54=62.8 cm

Answers

Answer:

A statement that uses the equal sign to show that two expressions have the same value is called an equation. The equation is represented as ax+by=c.

Firstly, we will apply the distributive property to the given equation a×(b+c)=ab+ac, we get

Part 4: model a real world problem using an ellipse
An artist wants to make an elliptical sign out of a rectangular piece of wood. The wood piece has a length
of 60 inches and a width of 40 inches. The artist wants to make the largest elliptical piece possible from
the wood.

the x-axis the major axis. (3 points)

PLEASE ANSWER ALL AND GRAPH

Answers

a. The equation of the ellipse is x²/900 + y²/400 = 1

b. the foci of the ellipse are at (±10√5,0)

c. Find the graph in the attachment

How to find the equation of the ellipse?

Since the ellipse is made from a block of wood and centered at the origin, and x- axis major axis.

So, the equation of an ellipse with center at origin and x - axis major axis is

x²/a² + y²/b² = 1 where

2a = length of major axis 2b = length of minor axis anda > b

Since the rectangular piece of wood  has a length of 60 inches and a width of 40 inches.

The length of the rectangle equals the length of the major axis

So, 2a = 60

a = 60/2

= 30

Also, the width of the rectangle equals the length of the minor axis

So, 2b = 40

b = 40/2

= 20

a. The equation of the ellipse

So, substituting a and b into the equation of the ellipse, we have

x²/a² + y²/b² = 1

x²/30² + y²/20² = 1

x²/900 + y²/400 = 1

So, the equation of the ellipse is x²/900 + y²/400 = 1

b. The foci of the ellipse

The foci of the ellipse are at (±c,0) where c² = a² - b²

= 30² - 20²

= 900 - 400

= 500

c = ±√500

c = ±10√5

So, the foci of the ellipse are at (±10√5,0)

The domain and range of all linear functions is the set of real numbers.

The domain and range of the function is

Domain = (-∞, ∞) and Range = (-∞, ∞)

What are domain and range?

The domain of a function is the set of values that we are allowed to plug into our function. This set is the x values in a function such as f(x). The range of a function is the set of values that the function assumes. This set is the values that the function shoots out after we plug an x value in.

The range is the set of outputs of a relation or function. In other words, it's the set of possible y values. Recall that ordered pairs are of the form (x,y) so the y coordinate is listed after the x. The output is listed after the input.

Given data ,

Let the function be represented as f ( x )

Now , the value of f ( x ) is

f ( x ) = ( 3/4 )x + 5

The domain of the function is the set of all possible input values for x, which in this case is all real numbers, since there are no restrictions on the value of x that can be plugged into the function. Therefore, the domain of the function is:

Domain = (-∞, ∞)

The range of the function is the set of all possible output values that the function can produce. Since the function is a linear function of the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, we know that the range of the function is all real numbers, since a line can take on any y-value.

Range = (-∞, ∞)

Hence , the domain and range are set of all real numbers

Find the two inequalities equations graphed below please.

Answers

The two inequalities are:

a) y ≤ -2x + 5

b) y < 3x - 14

How to find the two graphed inequalities?

On the first graph, we can see that the shaded region is below the line and that the line is solid, so the inequality is of the form:

y ≤ line.

Now, remember that if the line passes through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂).

Then the slope is:

[tex]a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]

We can see that the line passes through (2, 1) and (-1, 3)

Then the slope is:

[tex]a = \frac{1 - 3}{2 - 1} = -2[/tex]

So the line is:

y = -2*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the point (2, 1), then we get:

1 = -2*2 + b

1 = -4 + b

1 + 4 = b = 5

Then the first inequality is:

y ≤ -2x + 5

Now let's go to the other line equation, again the shaded region is below the line and this time the line is dashed, then:

y < line.

Two points on the line are (5, 1) and (4, -2)

Then the slope is:

[tex]a = \frac{1 - (-2)}{5 - 4} = 3[/tex]

y = 3*x + b

To find the value of b, we use the point (5, 1)

Then:

1 = 3*5 + b

1 = 15 + b

1 - 15 = b = -14

Then the inequality is:

y < 3x - 14
