Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1). AC=8.25cm

2). DB=7cm & EC=14cm

3). See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

According To the Question,

Given That, In ∆ABC, D and E are points on the sides AB and AC respectively such that DE is parallel to BC.

1). If AD= 2.5 cm ,BD = 3cm ,AE = 3.75 cm find length of AC.

Well we can apply Basic proportionality Theorem.

Since DE ║ BC ⇒ Sides are proportional and the angles are equal.

⇒ AD / BD = AE / EC

⇒ 2.5 / 3 = 3.75 / EC

On Solving we get,  

⇒ EC * 2.5 = 3.75 * 3  

⇒ EC * 2.5 = 11.25  

⇒ EC = 11.25 / 2.5  

⇒ EC = 4.5 cm

Thus,  

AC = AE + EC

⇒ AC = 3.75 + 4.50

AC = 8.25 cm  

Hence the measure of AC is 8.5 cm.

2). If AD = 4 cm , AE =8cm ,DB =x – 4 cm ,EC =3x -19 cm

Well we can apply Basic proportionality Theorem.

Since DE ║ BC ⇒ Sides are proportional and the angles are equal.

⇒ AD / BD = AE / EC

⇒ 4 / (x-4) = 8 / (3x-19)

on solving we get,

⇒ 3x-19 = 2(x-4)

⇒ 3x-19 = 2x-8

x=11

Thus, DB =x–4 ⇒ 11-4 ⇒ DB=7cm

And, EC =3x-19 ⇒ 3×11-19 ⇒ EC=14cm

3). If AD=2cm , BD= 4cm , show that BC = 3 DE

Thus, AB = AD + DB = 2+4 = 6cm

Well we can apply Basic proportionality Theorem.

Since DE ║ BC ⇒ Sides are proportional and the angles are equal.

⇒ AD/AB = DE / BC

⇒ 2 / 6 = DE / BC

on solving we get

BC = 3 DE Hence, Proved

Write an equation for a quadratic function in factored form with
zeros at x = -4 and x = 0 that passes through the point (-3,6).

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x)=-2x(x+4)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of a quadratic function in factored form with zeros at x = -4 and x = 0 that passes through the point (-3, 6).

The factored form of a quadratic is given by:

[tex]f(x)=a(x-p)(x-q)[/tex]

Where p and q are the zeros and a is the leading coefficient.

Since we have zeros at x = -4 and x = 0, let p = -4 and q = 0. Substitute:

[tex]f(x)=a(x-(-4))(x-0)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]f(x)=ax(x+4)[/tex]

And since we know that the function passes through the point (-3, 6), f(x) = 6 when x = -3. Thus:

[tex](6)=a(-3)(-3+4)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]6=a(-3)(1)[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]-3a=6\Rightarrow a=-2[/tex]

So, our quadratic function is:

[tex]f(x)=-2x(x+4)[/tex]

which equation is represented by the table

Answers

Answer:

B. b = 3a + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation in slope-intercept form as b = ma + c, where,

m = slope/rate of change

c = y-intercept/initial value

✔️Find m using any two given pair of values, say (2, 8) and (4, 14):

Rate of change (m) = change in b/change in a

m = (14 - 8)/(4 - 2)

m = 6/2

m = 3

✔️Find c by substituting (a, b) = (2, 8) and m = 3 into b = ma + c. Thus:

8 = 3(2) + c

8 = 6 + c

8 - 6 = c

2 = c

c = 2

✔️Write the equation by substituting m = 3 and c = 2 into b = ma + c. Thus:

b = 3a + 2

The outer dimensions of a closed rectangular cardboard box are 8 centimeters by 10 centimeters by 12 centimeters, and the six sides of the box are uniformly 12 centimeter thick. A closed canister in the shape of a right circular cylinder is to be placed inside the box so that it stands upright when the box rests on one of its sides. Of all such canisters that would fit, what is the outer radius, in centimeters, of the canister that occupies the maximum volume

Answers

Answer:

Vmax = 192.33 cm³

Step-by-step explanation: An error in the problem statement. The sides of the box could not be 12 cm. We assume 1.5 cm

Inside dimensions of the box:

Outer dimensions :          12          10         8

 2 *  1.5   =  3                      3            3         3

Inside dimensions:            9            7         5

The volume of a right circular cylinder is:

V(c)  =  π*r²*h              r is the radius of the base and  h the height

By simple inspection is obvious that volume maximum will occur when r is maximum, and r is maximum, only when the base of the cylinder is in the rectangle 12*10. ( Inside  dim  9*7 ) In that case r  =  7/2   r = 3.5 cm

Then the height is 5 cm.

And the maximum volume of the cylinder is:

Vmax = 3.14* ( 3.5)²*5

Vmax = 192.33 cm³
