Triangle PQR is similar to triangle XYZ. The length of PQ is one-half the length of XY. THe length of RP is 2 cm. Which proportion can be used to find the length of ZX?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]ZX = 4cm[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\triangle PQR[/tex] similar to [tex]\triangle XYZ[/tex]

[tex]PQ = \frac{1}{2}XY[/tex]

[tex]RP = 2cm[/tex]

Required

Find ZX

[tex]\triangle PQR[/tex] similar to [tex]\triangle XYZ[/tex] implies that, the following sides are similar

[tex]PQ \to XY[/tex]

[tex]QR \to YZ[/tex]

[tex]RP \to ZX[/tex]

To find ZX, we make use of the following equivalent ratio

[tex]PQ : XY = RP : ZX[/tex]

Where

[tex]PQ = \frac{1}{2}XY[/tex]

[tex]RP = 2cm[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}XY : XY = 2cm : ZX[/tex]

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{2}XY }{ XY }= \frac{2cm }{ ZX}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}= \frac{2cm }{ ZX}[/tex]

Make ZX the subject

[tex]ZX = 2 * 2cm[/tex]

[tex]ZX = 4cm[/tex]

Luis put out 6 different pies at a picnic at the end of the picnic, he noticed this about the pies: one whole apple pie was eaten, and 3/4 of another apple pie was eaten 1/2 of the blackberry pie was eaten 1/8 of the blueberry pie was eaten 5/8 of the cherry pie was eaten 3/4 of the peach pie was eaten. What is the total amount of pies that where left over

Answers

Answer:

2 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

amount left of apple pie = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4

amount left of blackberry pie = 1 - 1/2 = 1/2

amount left of blueberry pie = 1 - 1/8 = 7/8

amount left of cherry pie = 1 - 5/8 = 3/8

amount left of peach pie = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4

add this figures together

The hire purchase price of a fridge is 16400. 25% is paid as deposit, the rest is spread over 12 equally monthly instalments. If the cash price is 20% less the hire purchase pries, (a) find the costs price of the fridge (b) calculate the deposit (c) what is the monthly installments (d) what is the differences between the cash price and the hire purchase prie

Answers

Answer: a. 13120

b. 4100

c. 1025

d. 3280

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) find the costs price of the fridge

Since the cash price is 20% less the hire purchase price, then the cost of the fridge will be:

= (100% - 20%) × 16400

= 80% × 16400

= 0.8 × 16400

= 13120

(b) calculate the deposit

Since 25% is paid as deposit, the deposit will be:

= 25% × 16400

= 0.25 × 16400

= 4100

(c) what is the monthly installments

Monthly installments will be:

= (16400 - 4100)/12

= 12300/12

= 1025

(d) what is the differences between the cash price and the hire purchase price.

This will be:

Hire purchase price = 16400

Cash price = 13120

= 16400 - 13120

= 3280

An angle is bisected by a segment forming two new angles find m

Answers

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that angle ZXY is the bisected angle which was split into angle 1 and 2

Also note that bisectors split angles into to separate congruent angles ( So if angle ZXY was bisected into angle 1 and angle 2 then angle 1 = angle 2 )

If angle 2 = 30 then angle 1 also = 30

Like stated multiple times angle ZXY is made up of angle 1 and 2

Hence, Angle ZXY = Angle 1 + Angle 2

Angle ZXY = 30 + 30 = 60

Solve the simultaneous equations
2x – 3y = 12
3x + 4y = 1

Answers

Answer:

x=3 and y=−2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 4,and multiply the second equation by 3.

4(2x−3y=12)

3(3x+4y=1)

Becomes:

8x−12y=48

9x+12y=3

Add these equations to eliminate y:

17x=51

Then solve17x=51for x:

17x=51

17x

17

=

51

17

(Divide both sides by 17)

x=3

Now that we've found x let's plug it back in to solve for y.

Write down an original equation:

2x−3y=12

Substitute3forxin2x−3y=12:

(2)(3)−3y=12

−3y+6=12(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−3y+6+−6=12+−6(Add -6 to both sides)

−3y=6

−3y

−3

=

−3

(Divide both sides by -3)

For question 12, use the graph to guess one zero for the polynomial whose graph is shown. Then, factor completely.

12) f(x) = x³ - 6x² + 6x + 8​

Answers

Answer:

x³ - 6·x² + 6·x + 8 = (x - 4) × (x - (1 + √3)) × (x + 1 + √3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph of the polynomial, x³ - 6·x² + 6·x + 8, we have that one of the zeros of the polynomial, which is one point the graph cuts the x-axis is given as follows;

At a zero, we have, x = 4

∴ x - 4 = 0 is a factor of the polynomial

Dividing the given polynomial by (x - 4), gives;

x² - 2·x - 2

(x³ - 6·x² + 6·x + 8)÷(x - 4)

x³ -4·x²

-2·x² + 6·x + 8

-2·x² + 8·x

-2·x + 8

-2·x + 8

0

∴ (x³ - 6·x² + 6·x + 8)÷(x - 4) = x² - 2·x - 2

∴ (x - 4) × (x² - 2·x - 2) = x³ - 6·x² + 6·x + 8

Factorizing x² - 2·x - 2, gives;

x = (2 ± √((-2)² - 4×1×(-2)))/(2 × 1) =  (2 ± 2·√(3)/(2) = (1 ± √(3)

Therefore, x = 1 + √3, (x - (1 + √3)) = 0 or x = 1 - √3, (x - (1 - √3)) = 0 which gives the factors, after factorizing completely as follows;

x³ - 6·x² + 6·x + 8 = (x - 4) × (x - (1 + √3)) × (x + 1 + √3)

w = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an equation; since this is a right angle, it equals 90 degrees

90 - 12 = w + 2w

78 = 3w

78/3

2w +w + 12 =90

3w +12 = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the maxima and minima of the polynomial, differentiate the given based on x and equate to 0.                                   C(x) = 400x - 0.2x²                               dC(x) / dt = 400 - 0.4 x = 0 The value of x is 1000. This is the value of the maxima. As the value of C(x) continously becomes lesser as the value of x is set higher, the minima is not identified. Substitute x to the original equation,                               C(x) = (400)(1000) - 0.2(1000²) = $ 200,000Thus, the answer is letter B.

How can I find the area of an 18gon with a radius length 1ft

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw radii from the center of this 18-gon to each vertex, we end up with 18 triangles that are all congruent to each other. If we divide 360 by 18 we get the measure of the vertex angle of each of these 18 triangles. 360/18 = 20. So we take one of these triangles and pull it out and use it as a representative triangle from which we use trig to find its height and its base length.

The formula for the area for a regular polygon is

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}ap[/tex] where a is the apothem (the height of our triangle) and p is the perimeter (found from the base of our triangle).

If we split this triangle we extracted right down the center vertically, we get 2 right triangles. Pull one of those out and this is the triangle we work with. The vertex angle is split in half and it now measures 10. The one base angle is the right angle and, by the Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem, the other base angle is 80. To find the height (or the apothem) of this right triangle that has a hypotenuse of 1 (the radius of the polygon is the hypotenuse of the right triangle), we use the sin or cos ratio. I used cos:

[tex]cos10=\frac{a}{1}[/tex] so

a = .9848

To find the base of this right triangle, I used the sin ratio:

[tex]sin10=\frac{p}{1}[/tex] so

p = .1736. But this is only half the length of one of the sides of the polygon, so multiply it by 2 to get the length of the whole side.

.1736 * 2 = .3473

Now, in order to find the perimeter, we multiply that one side by 18 to get

p = 6.2514

Now we're ready to find the area:

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(.9848)(6.2514)[/tex] so

A = 3.078 square feet
