The perimeter of the scalene triangle is 54.6 cm.

A scalene triangle where all sides are different lengths. The base of the triangle, labeled 3 a, is three times that of the shortest side, a. The other side is labeled b.

Which equation can be used to find the value of b if side a measures 8.7 cm?

8.7 plus b equals 54.6
17.4 plus b equals 54.6
26.1 plus b equals 54.6
34.8 plus b equals 54.6

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8.7 plus b equals 54.6

Step-by-step explanation:

4(8.7) + b = 54.6.

b = 19.8 cm.

The sum of the sides = the perimeter = 3a + a + b = 54.6.  

Now a = 8.7, so:

3(8.7) + 8.7 + b = 54.6

4(8.7) + b = 54.6.

b = 54.6 - 4(8.7)

b = 19.8.

Answer 2

Answer: D.) 34.8 + b = 54.6

Step-by-step explanation: i hope this helps :)

and since the two points given are: (2,1) and (5,5)

you plug in the points and you get: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational numbers can be written as a/b where a and b are integers ( b not zero) and a and b are co-prime ( no common factors)

A whole number is rational (2 for example can be written as 2/1).

It could have been 2 or 3 or 33.

Find the values of a and b that make the second expression equivalent to the first expression. Assume that x > 0 and y ≥ 0. StartRoot StartFraction 126 x y Superscript 5 Baseline Over 32 x cubed EndFraction EndRoot = StartRoot StartFraction 63 y Superscript 5 Baseline Over a x Superscript b Baseline EndFraction EndRoot a = and b =

Answers

Answer:What was done from the first to the second equation was that the fraction was simplified. 126 and 32 have a common factors of 2. 

126/32=(63*2)/(16*2)

The 2s in the top and bottom can cancel out, leaving the fraction 63/16. 

In addition, since there are x terms on the top and bottom, they cancelled out as well. 

x/x^3=1/x^2

This leaves an x^2 term on the bottom. 

Thus, if a is 16, and b is 2, you will have an equivalent form of the fraction.

Pure gold is often mixed with other metals to produce jewelry. Pure gold is 24 carat. 12 carat gold is 12/24 or 50% gold, 6 carat gold is 6/24 or 25% gold, etc. A jeweler has some 12 carat gold and some 21 carat gold and wants to produce 90 g of 75% gold.

a. What percentage of gold is 21 carat?

b. How many grams of 12 carat gold and 21 carat gold are needed to produce the mixture?

Answers

Answer:

a. 87.5%

b. 30 g of 12 carat and 60 g of 21 carat.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The percentage of gold in 21 carat is given by:

[tex]gold_{21} = \frac{21}{24}*100 = 87.5 \%[/tex]

b. Since the mass he wants to produce is 90 g, then the added mass of the 12 carat, "x", and the mass of the 21 carat "y", must be equal to that:

[tex]x + y = 90[/tex]

The sum of gold on each carat type must be equal to the amount of gold on the final mixture, since a 12 carat has 50% gold and a 21 carat has 87.5% gold, then we have:

[tex]0.5*x + 0.875*y = 0.75*90\\\\0.5*x + 0.875*y = 67.5\\[/tex]

We now have a system of equations which we can solve to find the necessary mass of each type.

[tex]x + y = 90 \text{ } *-0.5\\0.5*x + 0.875*y = 67.5\\\\-0.5*x - 0.5*y = -45\\0.5*x + 0.875*y = 67.5\\\\0.375*y = 22.5\\\\y = 60[/tex]

[tex]x = 90 - y = 90 - 60\\\\x = 30[/tex]

He needs 30 g of 12 carat gold and 60 g of 21 carat gold.

Answer:

a. 87.5%

b. 30 g of 12 carat and 60 g of 21 carat.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The percentage of gold in 21 carat is given by:

b. Since the mass he wants to produce is 90 g, then the added mass of the 12 carat, "x", and the mass of the 21 carat "y", must be equal to that:

The sum of gold on each carat type must be equal to the amount of gold on the final mixture, since a 12 carat has 50% gold and a 21 carat has 87.5% gold, then we have:

We now have a system of equations which we can solve to find the necessary mass of each type.

He needs 30 g of 12 carat gold and 60 g of 21 carat gold.

Noah gathered information on the home states of the swimmers on Team USA. He organized the data in a table. Would a dot plot be appropriate to display his data? Explain your reasoning.This dot plot shows the ages of students in a swimming class. How many students are in the class?


Based on the dot plot, do you agree with each of the following statements? Explain your reasoning.

The class is an adult swimming class.

Half of the students are between 2 and 3 years old.

Answers

Answer:

1. No; 2. 16; 3. No; 4. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Home states of Olympic swimmers

A dot plot compares frequency counts within groups, usually with small sets of data.

Thus, it is great for visualizing quantitative data.

Home states are qualitative data.

It might be better to use a packed bubble chart, especially if more than 20 to 30 states are on the team.

In such a chart, the frequency with which the state name is mentioned would determine the relative bubble size.

It might look like the imaginary chart shown below.

A dot plot would not be appropriate.

2. Number of students

No. of students = 2 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 2 +1 + 1 + 2 + 2 = 16

3. Is this an adult swimming class?

The ages of the students range from 18 mo to 32 mo.

This is not an adult swimming class.

4. Ages of half the students

Half of 16 students is eight students.

The eight oldest students range in age from 25 mo to 32 mo.

This is between the ages of 2 yr to 3 yr (24 mo to 36 mo), so

Half the students are between 2 yr and 3 yr old.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

#1)-3-1.5

you go 3 units left from zero to get to -3

then, you go 1.5 units to the left of -3,

thus getting to -4.5,

#2) in #2 you went to the right to 3 and 4.5, but dude, it is subtraction, so, it should go the opposite way...wrong

#3) you can't change to order of the things in subtraction like in addition, so #3 is wrong answer of 3

#4) like in # 3, you have to go from 0 to (-3)   3 units to the left first, also you go from -3 to -4.5 1.5 units to the left, not -3 to -1.4 -4.5, which makes no sense, steps shown incorrectly to get any single answer at all

#5) you go from -1.5 to 1.5 , then from 0 to -1.5, same as in 4, 3, and 2 you will never get to -4.5, but same as 4 not get any single answer at all

Which of the above is a quadratic function

A quadratic function has the following form;

[tex]ax^2 +bx + c = 0 \ where \ a\neq 0[/tex]

So, to get a quadratic function from the list of given options, we simply perform a comparative test of each function with the form of a quadratic function

[tex]1.\ f(x) = -8x^3 - 16x^2 - 4x[/tex]

This is not a quadratic function because it follows the form [tex]f(x) = ax^3 + bx^2 + c[/tex] and this is different from [tex]ax^2 +bx + c = 0 \ where \ a\neq 0[/tex]

[tex]2.\ f(x) = \frac{3}{4}x^2 + 2x - 5[/tex]

This function has an exact match with [tex]ax^2 +bx + c = 0 \ where \ a\neq 0[/tex]

By comparison; [tex]a = \frac{3}{4}\ b = 2\ and\ c = -5[/tex]

[tex]3.\ f(x) = \frac{4}{x^2} - \frac{2}{x} + 1[/tex]

This is not a quadratic function because it follows the form [tex]f(x) = \frac{a}{x^2} + \frac{b}{x} + c[/tex] and this is different from [tex]ax^2 +bx + c = 0 \ where \ a\neq 0[/tex]

[tex]4.\ f(x) = 0x^2 - 9x + 7[/tex]

This is not a quadratic function because it follows the form [tex]f(x) = ax^2 +bx + c = 0\ but\ a = 0[/tex]

Unlike the quadratic function where [tex]a\neq 0[/tex]

So, from the list of given options, only [tex]2.\ f(x) = \frac{3}{4}x^2 + 2x - 5[/tex] satisfies the given condition
