Answer 2

Answer:

Anne found the 10th term of the following sequence. Her steps are shown below.

3, 7, 11, 15, …

1. common difference = 4, a1 = 3

2. an = 3 + (n - 1)4

3. an = 3 + 4n - 4

4. an = 4n - 1

5. a10 = 4(10) – 1

6. a10 = 39

Analyze Anne’s work. Is she correct? If not, what was her mistake?

Yes, she is correct.

No, she needed to find the common ratio because it is a geometric sequence.

No, she substituted the wrong values into the rule to find the equation that represented the sequence.

No, she solved for the 10th term incorrectly.

We have perpendicular bisector through a chord of the circle. We know the length, so either side of the chord is 11 due to the bisector cutting it directly in half.

Answers

Answer:

x = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an equilateral triangle, all three sides equal.  Since all three sides are equal, all three angle are equal.  180/3 = 60.  That means each angle is equal to 60 degrees.

2x-4 = 60

Add 4 to each side

2x-4+4 = 60+4

2x =64

Divide each side  by 2.

2x/2 = 64/2

x = 32

What is the length of cloth needed to make 18 shirts if each shirt is made from 0.8 yards of material?

Answers

Answer:

14.4 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Each shirt needs 0.8 yards so 18 shirts needs 18 * 0.8 = 14.4 yards of material.

14.4 yards of material will be needed to make 18 shirts.

What is multiplication?

Multiplication is when you take one number and add it together a number of times.

Given that, one shirt is of 0.8 yards of material,

18*0.8 = 14.4

Hence, 14.4 yards of material will be needed to make 18 shirts.

So the correct answer Is A, but can you explain how you get that answer?

Answers

The first thing to notice is that the smaller triangle on the left is equilateral, because of the same single tickmarks on each of the three sides. For any equilateral triangle, each interior angle is 60 degrees as you have marked it on the drawing.

Once you determine that, you would solve for the 120 degree angle (60+120 = 180). Afterward, solve the equation 120+x+x = 180 to find that x = 30. The equation 120+x+x = 180 refers to adding up the three angles of the smaller triangle on the right side (with angles 120, x, x). The two missing angles are both x due to the fact that this triangle is isosceles.

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Since ∆ABC is equilateral, all of its angles would be the same (60°). Since a line is 180°, the other part of ∠C is 120°. Since we also know that △BCD is isosceles, we know that angles ∠B and ∠D are equal. If a triangle is 180°, and we already know that ∠C is 120°, we can do 180-120, which is 60°. If angles ∠B and ∠D are equal, we can do 60/2=30. Therefore, ∠D is 30°.

Step-by-step explanation:

∠B is a right angle and all right angles are 90°, so if ∠B = 3*x then to find x you divid 3 by 90 to get x because 3*x = 90 once you do that you get 30 so x=30 then to find ∠C you just multiply 2 by 30 which gives you 60 which means the measure of ∠C = 60°

(4b) A rocking horse has a weight limit of 60 pounds. What percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds? *

Answers

Answer:

190 percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A rocking horse has a weight limit of 60 pounds.

We have to find what percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.

x percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.

⇒ x% of 60 = 114

[tex]\frac{x}{100} \times 60 = 114[/tex]

Solve for x;

[tex]\frac{6x}{10} = 114[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 10 we get;

[tex]\frac{6x}{10} \times 10 = 114 \times 10[/tex]

[tex]6x = 1140[/tex]

Divide both sides by 6 we get;

[tex]x = \frac{1140}{6}[/tex]

Simplify:

x = 190%

Therefore, 190 percentage of the weight limit is 114 pounds.

To find the percentage, divide the given weight by the weight limit and multiply by 100. 114 pounds is 190% of the weight limit of 60 pounds.

To find the percentage of the weight limit, we need to divide the given weight (114 pounds) by the weight limit (60 pounds) and then multiply the result by 100. So, the calculation would be:

Percentage = (114 pounds / 60 pounds) * 100

Simplifying this equation, we get:

Percentage = 190%

Therefore, 114 pounds is 190% of the weight limit of 60 pounds.

Given the position function s(t)=(t^3/3)-(12t^2/2)+36t between t=0 and t=15, where s is given in feet and t is measured in seconds, find the interval in seconds where the particle is moving to the right.

Answers

Answer: [0, 6) ∪ (6, 15]

Step-by-step explanation:

The particle is moving to the right when the velocity is positive.

[tex]s(t)=\dfrac{t^3}{3} -\dfrac{12t^2}{2}+36t[/tex]

v(t) = s'(t)

     = t² - 12t + 36

First, find the zeros of v(t):v(t) = 0

  0 = t² - 12t + 36

     = (t - 6)²

0 = t - 6

6 = t

The zero occurs when t = 6

Next, find when v(t) > 0

Choose a test point between 0 and 6:

v(5) = (5 - 6)²

     =     (-²)

     =      (+)

Since velocity is positive between 0 and 6, the particle is moving to the right during that interval.

Choose a test point between 6 and 15:

v(7) = (7 - 6)²

     =    (+)²  

     =    (+)

Since velocity is positive when t > 6, the particle is moving to the right.

The graph of the function f(x) is shown below. When f(x) = 0, determine x

Answers

Answer:

When f(x) is 0, then x is -1.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, you simply have to look for the place where the line crosses the x axis. This is where y (or f(x)) is equal to 0. Since this graph only crosses that axis at x = -1.8, that is the number we are looking for.

ANSWER

When f(x)=0,

[tex]x = - 1.8[/tex]

EXPLANATION

The given graph represents a polynomial function.

The roots of f(x) are the x-intercepts of the function.

The x-intercepts are the x-values of the points where the graph of the polynomial function meets the x-axis.

From the graph, the only point where the graph meets the x-axis is

[tex](-1.8,0)[/tex]

At this point f(x)=0 and
the x-value of this point is
