Point S is on line segment \overline{RT}

. Given ST=3x-8,ST=3x−8, RT=4x,RT=4x, and RS=4x-7,RS=4x−7, determine the numerical length of \overline{RT}.

RT

.

.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

RT = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Point S is on line segment

R------------S------------T

RS + ST = RT

Given

ST=3x-8

RT=4x

RS=4x-7,

Step 1

We find x

4x - 7 + 3x - 8 = 4x

4x + 3x -7 - 8 = 4x

7x - 15 = 4x

7x - 4x = 15

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Step 2

We find RT

RT = 4x

x = 5

RT = 4 × 5

RT = 20

The numerical length of RT is 20

Jake has made a scale drawing of a sand pit he
plans to build. The pit is 3m by 5m.
His drawing to scale is 15cm by 25cm
What scale has he used?

Answers

Answer: The scale is 5cm/m  (5 cm in the drawing are equivalent to 1 meter on the actual pit)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have an original measure M, and we redraw it with a new scale, where the new measure is m, the scale used is equal to:

scale = m/M.

In this case, we know that:

The pit is 3m, by 5m

and the drawing to scale is 15cm by 25cm

(15cm is the rescaled version of the 3m side, and 25cm is the rescaled version of the 5m side)

Using the equation above, we can find that the scale is:

Scale = 15cm/3m = 5cm/m

and, if we use the other side, we get:

Scale = 25cm/5m = 5cm/m

Both calculations give the same scale, as expected.

Then the scale is 5cm/m, which means that 5 centimeters in the drawing are equivalent to one meter in the real pit.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The function f(x) = x is a straight line rising to the right and passing through the origin at an angle of 45 degrees This means this it passes though the points  .....   (-2, -2),  (-1, -1),  (1, 1),  (2, 2) .......

If g(x) = f(x) + 4 then g(x) will be a straight line parallel to f(x) where each point on g(x) is   4 units vertically up from each point on f(x). Its a translation of f(x) up 4 units.

The slope of both graphs is 1.

2) This line (g)x passes through the origin but has slope 1/3.

Melanie is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 3.1% compounded
daily. How much would Melanie need to invest, to the nearest dollar, for the value of
the account to reach $11,900 in 14 years?

Answers

Using compound interest, it is found that Melanie would need to invest a value of $7,710.

What is compound interest?

The amount of money earned, in compound interest, after t years, is given by:

[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

A(t) is the amount of money after t years.  P is the principal(the initial sum of money).  r is the interest rate(as a decimal value).  n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year.  t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this problem, we have that:

Rate of 3.1%, hence [tex]r = 0.031[/tex].Compounded daily, hence [tex]n = 365[/tex].Value of $11,900 in 14 years, hence [tex]t = 14, A(t) = 11900[/tex].The amount she needs to invest is P.

Hence:

[tex]A(t) = P\left(1 + \frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]11900 = P\left(1 + \frac{0.031}{365}\right)^{365(14)}[/tex]

[tex]1.54339P = 11900[/tex]

[tex]P = \frac{11900}{1.54339}[/tex]

[tex]P = 7710[/tex]

Melanie would need to invest a value of $7,710.

Two apps on your phone take away points for using your phone at school. You have 140 points on the first app and 80 points on the second app when a school day begins. Each time you check your phone, you lose 10 points on your first app and $p$ points on your second app. After you check your phone ten times, you have the same number of points on each app. Find the value of $p$

Answers

Answer: p = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

For app one, you start with 140 points, and you lose 10 each time you check your phone.

Then, if you check your phone x times, you will have:

140 - x*10 points in total.

For app two, you start with 80 points, and you lose p points each time you check your phone.

Then, if you check your phone x times, you will have:

80 - x*p points left

We know that when x = 10, you have the same number of points in both apps, then we have the equation:

140 - (10)*10 = 80 - (10)*p

We can solve this for p

140 - 10*10 = 80 - 10*p

140 - 100 = 80 - 10*p

40 = 80 - 10*p

10*p = 80 - 40

10*p = 40

p = 40/10 = 4

x = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The total angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

(2x - 17) + (x + 53) + x = 180

2x - 17 + x + 53 + x = 180

4x + 36 = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides;

4x = 144

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 36

Answer:

The answer is 180 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rotation that maps one side to an adjacent side is 360°/6 = 60°. This is the least rotation that plots the regular hexagon to the aforementioned. In the least whole number of these minimum rotations, such as three 60° rotations to make 180°, will retain the hexagon identical.

In my garden I planted 1 2/3 rows of seeds. The crows came along and ate 1 1/5 of the seeds. How many rows are left?

Given:

Seeds planted = [tex]1\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] rows

Crows ate = [tex]1\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] rows

To find:

The remaining rows of seeds.

Solution:

According to the question,

Remaining rows of seeds = Seeds planted - Crows ate

                                          [tex]=1\dfrac{2}{3}-1\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

                                          [tex]=\dfrac{1(3)+2}{3}-\dfrac{1(5)+1}{5}[/tex]

                                          [tex]=\dfrac{3+2}{3}-\dfrac{5+1}{5}[/tex]

                                          [tex]=\dfrac{5}{3}-\dfrac{6}{5}[/tex]

Taking LCM, we get

[tex]=\dfrac{5(5)-3(6)}{15}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{25-18}{15}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{7}{15}[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]\dfrac{7}{15}[/tex] rows of seeds are left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given eqautions are:

y = 2x + 1......... (i)

y = 4x - 3...........(ii)

Putting eqaution (ii) in eqaution (i), we get;

4x - 3 = 2x + 1

~ Keep like terms on same side.

4x - 2x = 1+3

~ Perform operations. ( +, -, *, /)

2x = 4

x= 4/2

Therefore, X= 2.

Putting the value of X in eqaution (i)

y = 2x+1

y = 2*2+1

Therefore, y= 5.

Therefore, the ordered pair is (2,5).
