What is the Value of the angle AEX

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

I take it that x is somewhere near the end of the diagonal line, so you want to know the value of 3x + 1???

We know that (3x + 1) + (2x + 4) = 90 degrees. That's because AEF = 90 degrees.

So begin by removing the brackets.

3x + 1 + 2x + 4 = 90                 Combine the like terms.

5x + 5 =90                               Subtract 5 from both sides.

5x + 5 - 5 = 90 - 5                   Combine  

5x = 85                                    Divide by 5

x = 17

3x + 1  = 3*17 + 1 = 51 + 1 = 52

The centroid cuts each median into two segments. The shorter segment is _ _ _ _ the length of the entire segment.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

One third

The centroid of a triangle divides each median.

The shorter segment is 1/3 and the length of the entire segment is 1

The centroid of a triangle divides the median in the following ratio

[tex]\mathbf{Ratio = 2 : 1}[/tex]

The fraction of the shorter segment is:

[tex]\mathbf{Short = \frac{1}{1 + 2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Short = \frac{1}{3}}[/tex]

Hence, the shorter segment is 1/3, while the entire segment is 1.

Suppose that y is inversely proportional to the 4th power of x, and that y=15 when x=5. What is y when x=7? Round your answer to two decimal places if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

y = 3.91 when x =7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k / x⁴

Where,

k = constant of proportionality

y=15 when x=5

y = k / x⁴

15 = k / 5⁴

Cross product

15 × 5⁴ = k

15 × 625 = k

9,375 = k

What is y when x=7?

y = k / x⁴

= 9,375 / 7⁴

= 9,375 / 2401

= 3.9046230737192

Randy, Sandy and Todd are my cousins and their combined age is 87 years. Randy is four times as old as Sandy, but Todd is actually 15 years older than Sandy. How old are each of my cousins

Answers

Answer:

Randy is 48 years old

Sandy is 12 years old

Todd is 27 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent their ages with the first letters of their names:

[tex]R + S + T = 87[/tex]

[tex]R = 4 * S[/tex]

[tex]T = 15 + S[/tex]

Required

Determine their individual ages

We'll solve the above equations using substitution method of simultaneous equations

Substitute 15 + S for T and 4 * S for R in [tex]R + S + T = 87[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]4 * S + S + 15 + S = 87[/tex]

[tex]4 S + S + 15 + S = 87[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]4 S + S + S = 87 - 15[/tex]

[tex]6S = 72[/tex]

Divide through by 6

[tex]S = 72/6[/tex]

[tex]S = 12[/tex]

This implies that Sandy is 12 years old

Substitute 12 for S in [tex]R = 4 * S[/tex] and  [tex]T = 15 + S[/tex]

[tex]R = 4 * 12[/tex]

[tex]R = 48[/tex]

what does rise over run mean in math?

Answers

Answer:The slope of a line measures the steepness of the line. Most of you are probably familiar with associating slope with "rise over run". Rise means how many units you move up or down from point to point. Run means how far left or right you move from point to point. On the graph, that would mean a change of x values.

A freight train traveling along a certain route uses 12 units of fuel per mile plus an additional 2.2 units of fuel per mile for each railcar on the train. Let N represent the number of railcars on the train. What is an expression for f(N), the total number of units of fuel used per mile? find f(12). How many railcars does the train have if f(N)=34?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]38.4\ \text{units of fuel/mile}[/tex]

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]N[/tex] represent the number of rail cars on the train

Each rail car adds 2.2 units of fuel per mile.

Fixed fuel consumption is 12 units of fuel per mile

The function of fuel consumption per mile is

[tex]f(N)=12+2.2 N[/tex]

when

[tex]N=12[/tex]

[tex]f(12)=12+2.2\times 12\\\Rightarrow f(12)=38.4\ \text{units/mile}[/tex]

[tex]\boldsymbol{f(12)=38.4\ \text{units/mile}}[/tex]

[tex]f(N)=34\\\Rightarrow 12+2.2N=34\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{34-12}{2.2}\\\Rightarrow N=10[/tex]

So, the number of rail cars when [tex]f(N)=34[/tex] is 10.

Philip's rectangular deck is 5 yards wide. The ratio of the width to the length is 4 to 5. What is the approximate length of Philip's deck in feet? Hint: 1 yard = 3 feet.

Answers

Answer:

18.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

we find the length of Philip's rectangular deck in yards

The ratio of the width to the length is 4 to 5.

Philip's rectangular deck is 5 yards wide.

Hence,

Hence:

4/5 = 5/x

Cross Multiply

4x = 5 × 5

4x = 25

x = 25/4

x = 6.25 yards

The length of Philip's field = 6.25 yards

Hint: 1 yard = 3 feet.

Converting the yard to feet

1 yard = 3 feet

6.25 yards = x

Cross Multiply

x = 6.25 × 3 feet

x = 18.75 feet

Therefore, the length of Philip's field in feet = 18.75 feet

The length of a rectangle is three times the width. The perimeter of the rectangle is 72 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer: length=27, width 9

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, you should set up an equation. The length is 3x, and the width is x. To find the perimeter of a triangle, you do length times two + width times two. So 6x+2x=72. 8x=72, x=9. Length is 27, width is 9.

Answer:

Length: 27cm

Width: 9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of the rectangle is 3 times the width, we can assume the    width=x and the length=3x.

      P=72cm

     Perimeter= 3x+3x+x+x

Set the 2 equations equal to each other

   72=3x+3x+x+x

Solve for x

   72=8x

   9=x

Length=3x

   Length=9(3)

   Length=27

Width=x

   Width=9

How do you solve this?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] x = 18 [/tex]

[tex] y = 7.5 [/tex]

[tex] z = 7 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️[tex] (8x - 7) + (3x - 11) = 180 [/tex] (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)

Solve for x

[tex] 8x - 7 + 3x - 11 = 180 [/tex]

Add like terms

[tex] 11x - 18 = 180 [/tex]

Add 18 to both sides

[tex] 11x = 180 + 18 [/tex]

[tex] 11x = 198 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 11

✅[tex] x = 18 [/tex]

✍️[tex] (2y + 23) = (4y + 8) [/tex] (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Solve for y

[tex] 2y + 23 = 4y + 8 [/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex] 23 - 8 = 4y - 2y [/tex]

[tex] 15 = 2y [/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

✅y = 7.5

✍️[tex] (2y + 23) + (3z^2 - 5) = 180 [/tex] (linear pair angles)

Plug in the value of y

[tex] (2(7.5) + 23) + (3z^2 - 5) = 180 [/tex]

[tex] (15 + 23) + (3z^2 - 5) = 180 [/tex]

[tex] 38 + 3z^2 - 5 = 180 [/tex]

Add like terms

[tex] 3z^2 + 33 = 180 [/tex]

Subtract 33 from each side

[tex] 3z^2 = 180 - 33 [/tex]

[tex] 3z^2 = 147 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex] z^2 = \frac{147}{3} [/tex]

[tex] z^2 = 49 [/tex]

Square both sides

[tex] \sqrt{z^2} = \sqrt{49} [/tex]

y+1=-2/3x-4

-1 -1

y=-2/3x-5

Answer:

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{3}x -5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form:

[tex]y=mx+b\\\\y=(slope)x+(y-intercept)[/tex]

m is the slopeb is the y-interceptx and y are corresponding coordinate points (x,y)

When two lines are parallel, their slopes are the same. Take the slope from the given equation and insert into the new:

[tex]y=-\frac{2}{3} x+b[/tex]

Now find the y-intercept. For this, insert the given coordinate points and the slope into the equation to solve for b:

[tex](-6_{x},-1_{y})\\\\-1=-\frac{2}{3} (-6)+b[/tex]

Simplify multiplication using the rule [tex]\frac{a}{b} *c=\frac{ac}{b}[/tex] :

[tex]-1=-\frac{2(-6)}{3} +b\\\\-1=-\frac{-12}{3} +b\\\\-1=\frac{12}{3} +b\\\\-1=4+b[/tex]

Read the passage then answer the question below:The OrnithopterMany people know Leonardo da Vinci today as an artist, and it is true that he was indeed a great painter and sculptor, but he was also an inventor and one of the first individuals in recorded history to draft detailed plans for a flying machine.In order to make a living, Leonardo often depended upon wealthy individuals who would commission work from him. That means they would hire him and pay him to create specific work they wanted. In 1482, when he was 30 years old, Leonardo heard of an opportunity to work for Ludovico Sforza, the Duke of Milan. The duke, however, did not want a painter; he wanted a military engineer to help him defend the city against its enemies. This was an excellent opportunity that would pay Leonardo well, but Leonardo was a peaceful man. He considered war to be a beastly madness. He preferred to make things of beauty.Leonardo made the decision that he could tolerate making weapons if the resources the duke could provide would also allow him to create things he loved. He sent a letter to the duke detailing his skills in designing and building weapons. I will assemble catapults, mangonels, trebuchets and other instruments of wonderful efficiencyI will make an infinite number of items for attack and defense, he wrote.Leonardos letter convinced the duke of his talents, and he got the job. He set about designing the weapons that the duke desired. But Leonardo was infinitely creative, always thinking of new things, new ideashe could not be limited to weapons alone. One idea that he had not mentioned in his application was the ornithopter. It was not a weapon of war, and it was not something that the duke had asked for, but Leonardo went ahead and designed it anyway.Leonardo was fascinated by the idea of flight. The word ornithopter comes from two words meaning bird and wings. And on first inspection, his plans resembled a birds wings attached to a human beings arms. He concluded that a human beings arms were neither strong enough nor light enough to stay in the air for long. So, his design included sets of foot pedals and levers that were operated with the hands. He created detailed plans and presented them to the duke, uncertain of how the duke would react to a design for which he didnt ask.As it turned out, the duke was very impressed with the ornithopter, but it wasnt Leonardos innovation that excited him. He immediately thought of the ways this machine could be used in war. If a spy could fly over the enemys camp, imagine what information he could gather! This was not what Leonardo had intended for his beautiful flying machine.But how Leonardo felt about war turned out not to matter in the end. His ornithopter was never builtalong with his designs for tanks, parachutes, diving suits, machine guns, and even robots that he created for the duke. The ideas of Leonardo da Vinci were centuries ahead of the technology needed to make them.He concluded that a human being's arms were neither strong enough nor light enough to stay in the air for long.
