The Diagram Below Shows A Square Inside A Regular Octagon. The Apothem Of The Octagon Is 13.28 Units.

Answers

Answer 1
463 square units. ok
Answer 2

Answer:

The correct option is:  A.  463 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given diagram, the side length of the regular octagon is 11 units.

So, the perimeter[tex](p)[/tex] of the octagon [tex]=(11\times 8)units= 88\ units[/tex]

The apothem[tex](a)[/tex] of the octagon is 13.28 units.

So, the area of the octagon:  [tex]A=\frac{1}{2}pa=\frac{1}{2}(88)(13.28)=584.32\ units^2[/tex]

Now, the side length of the inside square is 11 units. So, the area of the square  [tex]=(11)^2 =121\ units^2[/tex]

Thus, the area of the shaded region [tex]=(584.32-121)units^2=463.32\ units^2 \approx 463\ units^2[/tex]

What is the distance between the points (−7, 1) and (−7, −5) on the coordinate plane, in units?

Answers

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 7, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 7, - 5)

d = [tex]\sqrt{(-7+7)^2+(-5-1)^2}[/tex]

  = [tex]\sqrt{0+(-6)^2}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex] = 6 units

Final answer:

The distance between the points (-7, 1) and (-7, -5) on the coordinate plane is 6 units, calculated by the absolute difference in their y-coordinates.

Explanation:

The distance between the points (-7, 1) and (-7, -5) on the coordinate plane can be found by calculating the difference in their y-coordinates. Since the x-coordinates are the same, the points lie on a vertical line, and the distance is simply the absolute difference in the y-coordinates.

The calculation would be: distance = |y2 - y1| = |-5 - 1| = | -6 | = 6 units

Therefore, the distance between the two points is 6 units.

1-sin^2x/sinx-cscx

How do I solve this problem? I keep getting the wrong answer.

Answers

Answer:

-sinx

Step-by-step explanation:

a trig identity that is crucial to solving this problem is: sin^2 + cos^2 = 1

with knowing that, you can manipulate that and turn it into 1 - sin^2x = cos^x

so 1-sin^2x/sinx - cscx becomes cos^2x/sinx - cscx

it is also important to know that cscx is the same thing as 1/sinx

knowing this information, cscx can be replaced with 1/sinx

(cos^2x)/(sinx - 1/sinx)

now sinx and 1/sinx do not have the same denominator, so we need to multiply top and bottom of sinx by sinx; it becomes....

cos^2x

---------------------

(sin^2x - 1)/sinx

notice how in the denominator it has sin^2x-1 which is equal to -cos^2x

so now it becomes:

cos^2x

--------------

-cos^2x/sinx

because we have a fraction over a fraction, we need to flip it

cos^2x          sinx

---------- * ----------------

1                  -  cos^2x

because the cos^2x can cancel out, it becomes 1

now the answer is -sinx

If arc AD = 130° and arc AB = arc CD = 80°, what is the measure of ∠APD?

Answers

Answer:

the answer is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(130-80)

Answer:

(B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: It is given that arc AD=130° and arc AB=arc CD=80°.

To find: The measure of ∠APD.

Solution: It is given that arc AD=130°⇒m∠AOD=130° (The measure of the central angel is equal to the intercepted arc)

Also, arc AB=arc CD=80°⇒m∠AOB=m∠DOC=80° (The measure of the central angel is equal to the intercepted arc)

We know that the sum  of the central angles is equal to 360°, thus

m∠AOD+m∠AOB+m∠BOC+m∠COD=360°

⇒130°+80°+m∠BOC+80°=360°

⇒290°+m∠BOC=360°

⇒m∠BOC=360°-290°

⇒m∠BOC=70°

Now, since  (The measure of the central angel is equal to the intercepted arc), therefore arcBC=70°.

Also, we know that Angle Formed by Two Secants is half of the DIFFERENCE of Intercepted Arcs, therefore

[tex]m{\angle}APD=\frac{1}{2} (arcAD-arBC)[/tex]

Substituting the values, we get

[tex]m{\angle}APD=\frac{1}{2} (130-70)[/tex]

⇒[tex]m{\angle}APD=\frac{60}{2}[/tex]

[tex]m{\angle}APD=30^{\circ}[/tex]

Thus, the measure of ∠APD is 30°.

Hence, option B is correct.

- The vertices of ABC are:  A(-2,10), B(4,8),C(2,4).

- The scale factor is 3.

- The center of dilation is at the origin.

By definition, if the scale factor is greater than 1, then the image is an enlargement.

Therefore, you must multiply each original vertex by 3:

(x,y)→(3x,3y)

1. 12 bags for total cost of 119.88

2. Yes. You'll make $180.12 for your labor.

3. Other tools, transportation, weather delay etc.

4. $28.02

5. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by finding the area of the field. The field is a rectangle and measures 360 by 160. The area is A = l*w = 360*160 = 57,600 square feet. One bag of fertilizer will cover 5000 square feet. Divide 57,600 by 5000 to find the number of bags needed. You'll need 11.52 bags or rounded 12 bags.

Since each bag costs $9.99, multiply 12 by $9.99 to get the total cost for the fertilizer. The cost is $119.88. If the athletic department pays you $300. You'll make 300 - 119.88 = 180.12 for your labor. This is a good profit.

If you have to purchase another tool for $40, then the cost increases to 159.88. This decreases your profit to 180.12 - 40 = 140.12. Divide your profit 140.12 by the 5 hours you work to find how much you earn per hour. You earn $28.02 per hour.

Yes, I would take the job, since $28.02 is well above minimum wage.

7/37

please give me brainly

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

An example of a compound event is tossing a coin and drawing a card; it involves multiple independent events. A spinner for probability should represent outcomes fairly. The probability that Max picks 2 cat's eye marbles consecutively is calculated by multiplying the probability of each selection.

Explanation:

Understanding Compound Events and Probability

An example of a compound event is tossing a coin and drawing a card from a poker deck simultaneously. It is classified as a compound event because it consists of two independent events that result in a combined outcome. The probability of a compound event is calculated using the product rule when the events are independent. This is done by multiplying the probabilities of each independent event occurring on its own.

To create a spinner that simulates the probability of an event, identify all the possible outcomes and ensure they are represented on the spinner fairly, with areas proportional to the probabilities of the outcomes. Spin the spinner a large number of times, documenting the outcomes to estimate the probability based on relative frequency.

Calculating the probability that Max picks 2 cat’s eye marbles in a row involves dependent events since the outcome of the first draw influences the outcome of the second. Initially, there is a 7/37 chance of picking a cat’s eye marble. Once one is picked, there are 6 cat’s eye marbles left and 36 marbles in total, so the probability of the second pick being a cat’s eye marble is 6/36. The combined probability is (7/37)*(6/36).

Write a linear equation to compare the price of a television, p, to the number sold, x. Then write a quadratic equation to compare the revenue, m, from selling televisions to the number sold, x.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]p = -10x + 200[/tex]

[tex]m = -10x^2 +200x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that at a price of $ 150, 5 televisions are sold and at a price of $ 100, 10 televisions are sold.

We must write a linear equation for this situation.

The equation of the line will have the following form

[tex]p = mx + b[/tex]

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the p axis

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\frac{100-150}{10-5}=-10[/tex]

[tex]b=p_1-mx_1\\\\b=150-(-10)(5)\\\\b=200[/tex]

The equation is:

[tex]p = -10x + 200[/tex]

Now we know that the revenue m is the product of the price p for the quantity sold x.

[tex]m = p * x[/tex]

[tex]m=(-10x + 200)*x[/tex]

[tex]m = -10x^2 +200x[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]p=-10x+200[/tex]

[tex]m = -10x^2+200x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An electronics store discovers that it can sell 5 televisions per day by pricing them at $150. When the televisions are on sale for $100 the store sells 10 of them every day.

To Find: Write a linear equation to compare the price of a television, p, to the number sold, x. Then write a quadratic equation to compare the revenue, m, from selling televisions to the number sold, x.

Solution:

Let p be the price and x be the no. of television sold

We are given that  it can sell 5 televisions per day by pricing them at $150. When the televisions are on sale for $100 the store sells 10 of them every day. i.e(5,150) and (10,100)

Now to find the linear equation to compare the price of a television, p, to the number sold, x.

We will use two point slope form

Formula : [tex]y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)[/tex]

[tex](x_1,y_1)=(5,150)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2)=(10,100)[/tex]

Substitute the values in the formula

[tex]y-150=\frac{100-150}{10-5}(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]y-150=\frac{-50}{5}(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]y-150=-10(x-5)[/tex]

[tex]y-150=-10x+50[/tex]

[tex]y=-10x+50+150[/tex]

[tex]y=-10x+200[/tex]

x is the no. of television sold

y is the price

Since p denotes the price

So,  [tex]p=-10x+200[/tex]

Thus a linear equation to compare the price of a television, p, to the number sold, x is   [tex]p=-10x+200[/tex]

Now [tex]Revenue = Cost \times quantity[/tex]

Since price of x telivisons = [tex]p=-10x+200[/tex]

So,  [tex]Revenue = (-10x+200) \times x[/tex]

[tex]Revenue = -10x^2+200x[/tex]

m denotes revenue

So,[tex]m = -10x^2+200x[/tex]

Thus a quadratic equation to compare the revenue, m, from selling televisions to the number sold, x. is [tex]m = -10x^2+200x[/tex]

Hence a linear equation to compare the price of a television, p, to the number sold, x is   [tex]p=-10x+200[/tex] and a quadratic equation to compare the revenue, m, from selling televisions to the number sold, x. is [tex]m = -10x^2+200x[/tex]

3y = 10 - 2x, or y = (1/3)(10 - 2x)   Yes, this is a function.

4x = 16 → x = 4        NOT a Function, because for x = 4 there are an infinite number of possible y -values

2x - 3 = 14 →  2x = 17  →  x = 17/2  Not a function.  See reason given above.

3y = 18 →  y = 6   Function

2x = 14.6   →  x = 7.3  Not a function.  See reason given above

If Lisa were doing a report on marine life, what definition might she include?CIA World Factbook Notes and Definitions CIA World Factbook This entry lists the most pressing and important environmental problems. The following terms and abbreviations are used throughout the entry: Acidification - the lowering of soil and water pH due to acid precipitation and deposition usually through precipitation; this process disrupts ecosystem nutrient flows and may kill freshwater fish and plants dependent on more neutral or alkaline conditions (see acid rain). Acid rain - characterized as containing harmful levels of sulfur dioxide or nitrogen oxide; acid rain is damaging and potentially deadly to the earth's fragile ecosystems; acidity is measured using the pH scale where 7 is neutral, values greater than 7 are considered alkaline, and values below 5.6 are considered acid precipitation; note - a pH of 2.4 (the acidity of vinegar) has been measured in rainfall in New England. Aerosol - a collection of airborne particles dispersed in a gas, smoke, or fog. Afforestation - converting a bare or agricultural space by planting trees and plants; reforestation involves replanting trees on areas that have been cut or destroyed by fire. Asbestos - a naturally occurring soft fibrous mineral commonly used in fireproofing materials and considered to be highly carcinogenic in particulate form. Biodiversity - also biological diversity; the relative number of species, diverse in form and function, at the genetic, organism, community, and ecosystem level; loss of biodiversity reduces an ecosystem's ability to recover from natural or man-induced disruption. Bio-indicators - a plant or animal species whose presence, abundance, and health reveal the general condition of its habitat.Biomass - the total weight or volume of living matter in a given area or volume. Carbon cycle - the term used to describe the exchange of carbon (in various forms, e.g., as carbon dioxide) between the atmosphere, ocean, terrestrial biosphere, and geological deposits. Catchments - assemblages used to capture and retain rainwater and runoff; an important water management technique in areas with limited freshwater resources, such as Gibraltar. DDT (dichloro-diphenyl-trichloro-ethane) - a colorless, odorless insecticide that has toxic effects on most animals; the use of DDT was banned in the US in 1972. Defoliants - chemicals which cause plants to lose their leaves artificially; often used in agricultural practices for weed control, and may have detrimental impacts on human and ecosystem health.Deforestation - the destruction of vast areas of forest (e.g., unsustainable forestry practices, agricultural and range land clearing, and the over exploitation of wood products for use as fuel) without planting new growth. Desertification - the spread of desert-like conditions in arid or semi-arid areas, due to overgrazing, loss of agriculturally productive soils, or climate change. Dredging - the practice of deepening an existing waterway; also, a technique used for collecting bottom-dwelling marine organisms (e.g., shellfish) or harvesting coral, often causing significant destruction of reef and ocean-floor ecosystems. Drift-net fishing - done with a net, miles in extent, that is generally anchored to a boat and left to float with the tide; often results in an over harvesting and waste of large populations of non-commercial marine species (by-catch) by its effect of "sweeping the ocean clean". Ecosystems - ecological units comprised of complex communities of organisms and their specific environments.
