How do you prove that a line parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionally and converse (Triangle Proportionality Theorem)?

Answers

Answer 1

In order to prove that a line that is parallel to one side of a triangle divides the other sides proportionally, you can use the Cross Product Property.

What proof does the Cross Product Property give?

If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and divides the other two sides, those sides would be proportional to each other according to the Triangle Proportionality Theorem.

This can be shown as:

AB² = BC x BD

Where the two sides can be multiplied to get the length of the side the parallel line crossed from.

The information given illustrates that the equivalent fraction will be 2/6.

How to calculate the fraction?

It should be noted that equivalent fraction simply means the fractions that are the same.

In this case, we are given 4/6 and 1/3. They have different numerators and denominators. The question is simply to change 1/3 to another fraction that has a denominator of 6.

This will be illustrated. The equivalent faction to 1/3 will be:

= 1/3 × 2/2

= 2/6

Therefore, the answer is 2/6.

number?)

Answers

Answer:

15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Width of the strip + cut = 5/8 + 1/8 = 3/4.

11 3/8 / 3/4

Suppose a batch of steel rods produced at a steel plant have a mean length of 176 millimeters, and a variance of 100. If 446 rods are sampled at random from the batch, what is the probability that the mean length of the sample rods would differ from the population mean by greater than 0.65 millimeters

Answers

The probability that the mean length of the sample rods would differ from the population mean by greater than 0.65 mm is 0.1698 or 16.98%.

Mean length of the population (μ) = 176 mm.

Variance of the population (σ²) = 100.

Therefore, the standard deviation of the population (σ) = √100 = 10.

The sample size (n) = 446.

The mean of the sample = the mean of the population = μ = 176 mm.

The standard deviation of the sample (s) = σ/√n = 0.4735137.

We are asked to find the probability that the sample rods would differ the population mean by greater than 0.65 mm, that is,

either the length of the sample rods is less than (176 - 0.65) =175.35

or the length of the sample rods is more than (176 + 0.65) = 176.65.

This can be shown as P(X < 175.35 or X > 176.65) = 1 - P(175.35 < X < 176.65) = 1 - Normalcdf(175.35,176.65,176,0.4735137) = 1 - 0.8302 = 0.1698 or 16.98%.

Thus, the probability that the mean length of the sample rods would differ from the population mean by greater than 0.65 mm is 0.1698 or 16.98%.

Answer:

The solutions of the equation |2 x-3|=17

are x=10

and x=-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations is |2 x-3|=17.

It is required to find out the values of x satisfying the given equation.

To find it out, use the fact that the solution of this type of equation is 2x-3=17.

Or 2x-3=-17 and simplify the equations using simple mathematical operations.

Step 1 of 2

Solve the equation 2x-3=17,

Add 3 on both sides of the equation 2x-3=17,

2x-3+3=17+3

2x=20

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation 2x=20,

[tex]$$\begin{aligned}&\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{20}{2} \\&x=10\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

Step 2 of 2

Solve the equation 2x-3=-17,

MCVI, where C is the number of cockroaches in thousands, and t is the time

Answers

Answer:

310,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Since t represents time, the start would represent when no time has passed or in other words, when t=0, which is the y-intercept. You can plug in t as 0, but it's a bit redundant, since the y-intercept of a quadratic equation in the form: [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] will have a y-intercept at (0, c) where c is the constant, since whenever you plug in 0 as x, the ax^2 becomes 0 (since 0^2 = 0, and a * 0 = 0 since anything multiplied by 0... is 0) and the same thing goes for the bx, leaving the c alone. This means the y-intercept of the function is (0, 310) and since it's in the thousands there is 310,000 at the start

Solve the following using the distributive property:
8x+12=2(x-3)​

Answers

Answer:

x = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 12 = 2(x - 3) ← distribute the parenthesis by 2

8x + 12 = 2x - 6 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

6x + 12 = - 6 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

6x = - 18 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = - 3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

you first distribute 2(x-3) which gives you 2x-6 so 8x+12=2x-6.

next you move the terms to the correct side so you subtract 12 from the left side and subtract 2x from the right side then move them to the other side so you end up with 8x-2x=-6-12.

then you combine like terms so you will have 6x=-18.

then divide both sides by 6 which gives you x = -3.

8x+12=2(x-3)

8x+12 = 2x-6

8x-2x = 6-12

6x = -18

x = -3

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely.

What is the equation of a line?

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of a line is given by,

y =mx + c

where,

x is the coordinate of the x-axis,

y is the coordinate of the y-axis,

m is the slope of the line, and

c is the y-intercept.

The graphs can be described as shown below.

A.) The first graph has the y-intercept at 2. Therefore, the first graph can be described by the equation, y =5x + 2.

B.) For the second graph, the graph passes through the point (-1,0). Therefore, if we substitute the value of y as 0 in the equation y=3x+3, we will get x=-1.

Hence, the equation of the second graph is y=3x+3.

C.) For the third graph, the graph passes through the point (-1.5,0). Therefore, if we substitute the value of y as 0 in the equation y=2x+3, we will get x=-1.5.

Hence, the equation of the second graph is y=2x+3.

3. A dog pen is 3 1/3 yards wide by 5 2/3 yards long. What is the area of the dog pen?

Answers

The area of the garden is 33 ft².

The number of tiles required to cover the floor is 17 tiles.

The area of a dog pen is 170/9 square yards.

We need to find the area and perimeter for the given questions.

What are the formulas to find the perimeter and the area of a rectangle?

The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)

The formula to find the area of a rectangle=Length×Breadth.

Given that, a small garden has a perimeter of 24 1/4 ft and the length is 8 ft.

Now, perimeter = 2(8+Breadth)

⇒24 1/4=16+2×Breadth

⇒97/4-16=2×Breadth

⇒Breadth=97-64/4×2=33/8 ft

Now, Area=8×33/8=33 ft²

Therefore, the area of the garden is 33 ft².

Given that, the floor measures 4 1/2 ft by 3 3/4 ft.

The area of a floor=Length×Breadth=9/2×15/4=135/8 ft²

Number of tiles to cover the floor=135/8=16.875

Therefore, the number of tiles required to cover the floor is 17 tiles.

Given that, a dog pen is 3 1/3 yards wide by 5 2/3 yards long.

Now, the area of a dog pen=10/3×17/3=170/9 square yards.

Therefore, the area of a dog pen is 170/9 square yards.
