Find the shortest side of a triangle whose perimeter is 64 if the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3 and the third side is 20 less than the sum if the other two

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The shortest side of the triangle is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides the triangle be x, y and z.

From the question, the perimeter of the rectangle is 64, that is

x + y + z = 64 ...... (1)

Also, the ratio of two of its sides is 4:3, that is x:y = 4:3, then we can write that x/y = 4/3 ⇒ 3x = 4y ...... (2)

The third side, z, is 20 less than the sum of the other two, that is

z + 20 = x + y ...... (3)

Substitute equation (3) into (1)

Then,

z + 20 + z = 64

2z +20 = 64

2z = 64 - 20

2z = 44

z = 44/2 k

z = 22

From equation (3)

z + 20 = x + y

Then, k

22 + 20 = x +y

42 = x + y

x = 42 - y ...... (4)

Substitute this into equation 2

3x = 4y

3(42-y) = 4y

126 - 3y = 4y

4y + 3y = 126

7y = 126

y = 126/7

y = 18

Substitute this into equation (4)

x = 42 - y

x = 42 - 18

x = 24

∴ x = 24, y = 18 and z = 22

Hence, the shortest side of the triangle is 18.

4 - 7x = 4 - 7*-3 = 4 + 21 = 25

-6 - abs(25)

-6 - 25 = -31

You should note three things.

1. the absolute value of 25 is 25

Given: BE and AD are altitudes (intersecting at H) of triangle ABC, while F,G, and K are midpoints of AH, AB and BC, respectively. Prove: angle FGK is a right angle.

Answers

Solution :

Since [tex]BE[/tex] is an altitude of a triangle [tex]ABC[/tex], it is perpendicular to [tex]AC[/tex] (since the triangle ).

Since [tex]G[/tex] and [tex]K[/tex] are the midpoints, then the line [tex]BG=GA[/tex] and the line [tex]BK=KC[/tex]. The line [tex]KG[/tex] must be parallel to the line [tex]AC[/tex] and is therefore perpendicular to [tex]BE.[/tex]

Now since F and [tex]G[/tex] are the mid points, we get  [tex]GA=BG[/tex]. The line [tex]GF[/tex] is parallel to BH  and is perpendicular to AC.

Therefore, we have

[tex]KG-GK[/tex] parallel to [tex]AC[/tex]

[tex]AC[/tex] perpendicular to [tex]BE-BH-BJ[/tex]

[tex]BE-BH-BJ[/tex] parallel to [tex]GF[/tex]

Thus [tex]GK[/tex] is perpendicular to [tex]GF[/tex] and also ∠[tex]FGK[/tex] is a right angle.

Functions

y = -x+11y = 2x^2-6x+4y = -7

Not functions

x = 3x^2+y^2 = 81y^2 = -5x-12

=======================================================

Explanation:

A function is possible if and only if any given x input leads to exactly one y output.

For something like x^2+y^2 = 81, we can see that x = 0 leads to either y = 9 or y = -9. So this would not be a function. We would need x to pair with only y value to have it be a function.

We have the same thing going on with y^2 = -5x-12 as well.

For anything of the form x = k, where k is any real number, this is also not a function. We have one single input only and it leads to infinitely many outputs. So in a sense, this is even worse compared to the other examples.

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

In summary, we have these three non-functions:

x = 3x^2+y^2 = 81y^2 = -5x-12

Everything else is a function. You can use the vertical line test as a visual way to check.

      = 324 + 144 - 432cos75°

AC = [tex]\sqrt{356.2}[/tex] ≈ 18.9

Answer:

<a=32

Step-by-step explanation:

to find angle a you have to subtract the 50 minus 180 to find the angle close to the 50 because angles in a straight line add up to 180. the answer will be

180-50=130

after finding the angle in that triangle you must add it to the other angle present which is 18° then subtract by 180 because angles in a straight line add up to 180

130+18+a=180

a=180-148

a=32 and that's how you find a

to find b you must know that the angle at the center is twice the angle at the circumference meaning the large angle C is 90°,now if it's 90° inorder to find the big angle B you must add the 18+90 then subtract 180

18+90+B=180

B=180-108

=72

since the combination of angle a and b will give you 72 you can find angle c by subtracting a from 72

c=72-32

=40

then if you look at angle c and angle b you can tell that they are alternating meaning angle b is also 40

Two of the exterior angles of a triangle are $158^\circ$ and $99^\circ.$ Find the third exterior angle, in degrees.

Answers

Answer:

The third exterior angle is [tex]103^o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\theta = 158^o[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 99^o[/tex]

Required

The third exterior angle [tex](\beta)[/tex]

The exterior angles of a triangle add up to 360 degrees.

So:

[tex]\theta + \alpha + \beta = 360^o[/tex]

Make [tex]\beta[/tex] the subject

[tex]\beta = 360^o - (\theta + \alpha)[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]\beta = 360^o - (158^o + 99^o)[/tex]

[tex]\beta = 103^o[/tex]

the coast, to the nearest foot, is
the island?
d ft
(Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

d = 450 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

First, we can find the angle in the triangle at the point of the helicopter, the angle opposite [tex]d[/tex]. Subtract 48° from 90°:

90-48=42

Now, given that this is a right triangle and we have an angle and the side adjacent the angle, we can solve for [tex]d[/tex] by using the tangent ratio:

[tex]tan\theta=\displaystyle \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Replace θ with 42°, "opposite" with [tex]d[/tex], and "adjacent" with 500 ft:

[tex]tan(42)=\displaystyle \frac{d}{500}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 500 to isolate [tex]d[/tex]:

[tex]500*tan(42)=d\\450=d[/tex]

Therefore, d = 450 ft when rounded to the nearest whole number.

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

To solve this question, we need to solve an exponential equation, which we do applying the natural logarithm to both sides of the equation, getting that it will take 7.6 years for for 21 of the trees to become infected.

Model:

The exponential model for the number of infected trees after t years is given by:

[tex]f(t) = e^{0.4t}[/tex]

How many years will it take for 21 of the trees to become infected?

This is t for which:

[tex]f(t) = 21[/tex]

Thus

[tex]e^{0.4t} = 21[/tex]

Applying the natural logarithm to both sides:

[tex]\ln{e^{0.4t}} = \ln{21}[/tex]

[tex]0.4t = \ln{21}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\ln{21}}{0.4}[/tex]

[tex]t = 7.6[/tex]

It will take 7.6 years for for 21 of the trees to become infected.

Answers

Answer:

In 26 seconds to complete a transaction, 2 products are being purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 item  = 9 seconds

Time taken in all to check out = 8 seconds

Time taken to shop = 26 seconds

Now as check out process takes 8 seconds, so the

Time left to ACTUALLY SHOP =  Total Time  - Time Used to check out

                                                  = 26 seconds = 8 seconds = 18 seconds

Shopping of 1 item = 8 seconds

Shopping of 2 items  = 2 x ( Time taken in 1 item) = 2 x  9 = 18 seconds

So, in 18 seconds, 2 clothing item can be selected.

Hence,in 26 seconds to complete a transaction, 2 products are being purchased.

A man invested ksh. 36000 in two companies P and Q . Company P pays a dividend of 11.25% while Q pays a dividend of 10.5%. Is from his total investment, he obtained a return of 10.75%,how much did he invest in each company?​

Answers

Answer:

Investment in company P = 12,000

Investment in company Q = 24,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total investment = 36,000

Dividend paid by company P = 11.25%

Dividend paid by company Q = 10.5%

Total return = 10.75%

Now, let investment made in company P be 'a' and company 'Q' be 'b.' So,

A.T.Q.

a + b = 36,000  ...(i)

11.25% of a + 10.5% of b = 10.75% of 36000  ...(ii)

On simplification,

a + b = 36,000

11.25% of a + 10.5% of b = 3870

Now,

11.25% of a + 10.5% of (36000 - a) = 3870

⇒ 0.1125 * a + 0.105 * (36000 - a) = 3870

⇒ 0.1125 a + 3780 - 0.105a = 3870

⇒ 0.1125a - 0.105 a - 3870 - 3780

⇒ 0.0075 a = 90

⇒ a = 90/0.0075

∵ a = 12000

Since, a = P = 12,000

Q = b = (36000 - a)

= 36000 - 12000

= 24,000

Thus,

Investment in company P = 12,000

Investment in company Q = 24,000

Answer:

Amount invested in P = 12,000

Amount invested in Q = 24,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = 36,000 in two companies P and Q

P pays dividend = 11.25%

Q pays dividend = 10.5%

Total return = 10.75%

Find:

Amount invested in each company

Computation:

Total return = 36,000 x 10.75

Total return = 3870

Assume;

Amount invested in P = a

So,

Return in P = a x 11.25%

Return in P = 0.1125a

Return in Q = [36000 - a]10.5%

Return in Q = 3,780 - 0.105a

Total return = Return in P + Return in Q

3,870 = 0.1125a + 3,780 - 0.105a

90 = 0.0075a

a = 12,000

Amount invested in P = 12,000

Amount invested in Q = 36,000 - 12,000

Amount invested in Q = 24,000
