Segment AB has length "a" and is divided by points P and Q into AP, PQ, and QB, such that AP = 2PQ = 2QB.
a) Find the distance between point A and the midpoint of segment QB
b) Find the distance between the midpoints of segments AP and QB

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 7a/8; b) 5a/8  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AP = 2PQ = 2QB

Calculations:

1. A to the midpoint of QB

        a = AP + PQ + QB

If 2PQ = 2QB.

    PQ = QB and

    AP = 2PQ

∴      a = 2PQ + 2PQ = 4PQ

    PQ = a/4

    AP = 2PQ = a/2

Let M be the midpoint of QB.

AM = AP + PQ + QM

     = a/2 + a/4 + a/8

     = 7a/8

2. Midpoints of AP and QB

Let N be the midpoint of AP

NM = NP + PQ + QM

      = a/4 +a/4 + a/8 =

      = 5a/8

what is the greatest common factor of 8x*3-6x*2y*2+4x*2y and 2x*2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, I believe that the equation should be represented as [tex]8x^{3} -6x^{2} y^{2} +4x^{2}y[/tex] and [tex]2x^{2} .[/tex] Please correct me if I am wrong and I will fix the equation accordingly.

To find the greatest common factor of this equation, we firstly need to factor the polynomial [tex]8x^{3} -6x^{2} yx^{2} +4x^{2} y[/tex]. To do this:

1. Find a GCF for all of the coefficients of the equation. To do this, you can make factor trees, or you can simply just use the prime factorization method.

The prime factorization method is simply a technique used to list the prime numbers used to find the total value. For example, what two prime numbers do you multiply to get four? 2 and 2. 2 is a prime number.

The prime factorization for each of the coefficients is as follows.

8: 2³

6: 2 · 3

4: 2²

We have 2s as values in every prime factorization, but we only one of each. We must take the greatest common value, and 2 is this value. So, our GCF coefficient is 2.

Now, we look at our x variables and y variables.

For x, we have x³ and x². So, our GCF is x².

Our GCF is now 2x². Now, let's look at our y-variables.

We don't have y variables for our entire polynomial, so it can't be a common factor. Therefore, our GCF is 2x².

What is a linear function?

A straight line on the coordinate plane is represented by a linear function.

A linear function always has the same and constant slope.

In another word, a linear function is a function that varies linearly with respect to the changing variable.

As per the given,

The rate of the library = $13 per hour.

For 12.5 hours.

Earning from library = 13 x 12.5 = $162.5

Cafe pay per hour = x

For 20.5 hours.

Earning from cafe = 20.5x

Total earning = 162.5 + 20.5x

20.5x = 459.75 - 162.5

x = 14.5

Hence "The amount that the cafe pays per hour will be $14.50 per hour".

During the annual walk for peace, nina walked a total of six miles more than her husband ed. Their combined mileage was 46. Ed's company pledged to donate $1.00 for each mile that ed and nina walked. How many miles did nina walk?

Answers

Answer:

26miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Nina's husband's (Ed) mileage = x miles

Nina = (x + 6) miles

Combined mileage = 46

Nina's miles + Ed's miles = 46

x + (x+6) = 46

x+x+6 = 46

2x +6 = 46

2x = 46-6

2x = 40

x = 40/2 = 20miles

Nina's husband covered 20miles

Nina covered = x+6 = 20+6 = 26miles

Nina walked 26miles

r:540. Now we need to get the number 540 and divide it by 160, this will tell us how much we need to multiply by. 540/160 = 4. So now we know that our multiplier is 4. Then we need to multiply 4 by 4 . That gives us 16 therefore the answer to this question is 16.

A​ cone-shaped vase has height 28 cm and radius 9 cm. An artist wants to fill the vase with colored sand. The sand comes in small​ packages, each of which is a cube with side length 3 cm. At most, how many packages of sand can the artist use without making the vase​ overflow?

Answers

Answer:

87 packages

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the volume of the cone-shaped vase.

The volume of a cone is given by:

V_cone = (1/3) * pi * radius^2 * height

With a radius of 9 cm and a height of 28 cm, we have:

V_cone = (1/3) * pi * 9^2 * 28 = 2375.044 cm3

Each package of sand is a cube with side length of 3 cm, so its volume is:

V_cube = 3^3 = 27 cm3

Now, to know how many packages the artist can use without making the vase overflow, we just need to divide the volume of the cone by the volume of the cube:

V_cone / V_cube = 2375.044 / 27 = 87.9646 packages

So we can use 87 packages (if we use 88 cubes, the vase would overflow)

Answer:

87.97 packs

Step-by-step explanation:

 This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a cone

the expression for the volume of a cone is

[tex]v=\frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h[/tex]

Given data

height h= 28cM

radius r= 9cm

substituting the data the data into the expression for the volume we can solve for the volume

[tex]v=\frac{1}{3} *3.142*9^2*28\\\v= \frac{7126.056}{3}\ \\v= 2375.35cm^3\\\\[/tex]

we know that a pack contains a cube, we then need to calculate the volume of a cube in a pack, given that the length of a cube is 3cm

the volume is = [tex]l^3= 3^3= 27cm^3\\[/tex]

now the volume of a pack is [tex]27cm^3[/tex], hence the amount of packs needed to fill the cone is calculated as,

[tex]=\frac{2375.35}{27}\\ = 87.97 packs[/tex]

If the measure of angle 1 is (3x-4)º and the measure of angle 2 is (4x+10), what is the measure of angle 2 in degrees?
HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Plz !!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

Angle 2 measures 58°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of all three angles formed = 180

Because the sum of angles on a straight line is always 180

Angle 1 =3x-4

Angle 2 = 4x+10

Angle 3= 90° (given)

So,

90+3x-4+4x+10=180

(4x+3x)+(90+10-4)= 180

7x+96=180

Bring 96 to the other side, making it negative,

7x = 180-96 = 84

x = 12

Therefore angle 2

= 4x+10

= (4)(12)+10

=48+10

=58°

butter cookies, how many cookies in total

Answers

Answer:

100 : 20 : 60 Making the total number of cookies 180

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the basic information given we know:

If there are 5 oatmeal cookies, there will be: 1 raisin cookie and 3 butter cookies. This is a base value.

So, we have equations like this:

[tex]r = 1/3b[/tex] and [tex]o = 5/3b[/tex]

So, if we plug in 60 for butter cookies we will have something like this:

[tex]o : r : 60[/tex] or [tex](5/3b) : (1/3b) : b[/tex] where b=60

Solving:

[tex](5/3b) : (1/3b) : b[/tex]

[tex](5/3b) : (1/3b) : 60\\100 : 20 : 60[/tex]

Then add the amounts of together to get 180.

In the expression given in the question, step 1 and step 2 are correct, as well as the final answer.

The final answer is correct because only like radicals can be added as 3√19 and 8√38 are unlike radicals. Their radicands, √19 and √38, are not the same, hence, the radicals do not need to be added.
