Peter says, "If you subtract 19 from my number and multiply the difference by -3, the result is
- 21." What is Peter's number?
Peter's number is?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

26

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the peter's number be represented    x

Given that

1. if you subtract 19 from my number

writing it mathematically it will be x -19

2. multiply the difference by -3

it can be written as

since difference is x-19

multiplied the difference with -3

-3(x-19)

3. the result is -21

-3(x-19) = -21

dividing both side by -3

-3(x-19)/-3 = -21/-3

x-19 = 7

adding 19 both sides

x-19 + 19  = 7 + 19

x = 26

Thus, peter's number is 26.

Answer:

0 ≤ an ≤ bn

The series ∑₁°° bn converges

The series ∑₁°° an converges by comparison to ∑₁°° bn.

0 ≤ an ≤ bn

The series ∑₁°° bn diverges

The comparison test is inconclusive for our choice of bn.

Step-by-step explanation:

an = 1 / (n² + n + 3) and bn = 1 / n²

The numerators are the same, and the denominator of an is greater than the denominator of bn.  So 0 ≤ an ≤ bn.

bn is a p series with p > 1, so it converges.

Since the larger function converges, the smaller function also converges.

an = (3n − 1) / (6n² + 2n + 1) and bn = 1 / (2n)

If we rewrite bn as bn = (3n − 1) / (6n² − 2n), we can tell that when the numerators are equal, the denominator of an is greater than the denominator of bn.  So 0 ≤ an ≤ bn.

bn is a p series with p = 1, so it diverges.

The larger function diverges.  We cannot conclude whether the smaller function converges or diverges.

What is the average rate of change of f over the interval [1, 6]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex] This is the formula for the average rate of change

over the interval (a, b)

a and b are x values

f(a) ad f(b) think of them as y values

Start calculating f(a) and f(b) a=1 b=6

replace all x's in formula with a, (1)

f(1)=1³-9(1) = 1-9= -8    f(1) = -8

Now do : b (6)

f(6) = 6³ - 9 (6) = 216-54=162 f(6) = 162

now plug everything into your equation

[tex]\frac{f(6)-f(1)}{6-1} =\frac{162- (-8)}{5} =\frac{170}{5} =34[/tex] average rate of change.

notice the 162 - (-8) In math there is no subtraction, and you would change it to + and when you do that you much change the sign of the next value making -8 a +8.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

What are ordered pairs in sets?

A function f from a set A to a set B is a set of ordered pairs {(x, y)} such that x in the set A and y is the in the B. For every x ∈ A there is exactly one y ∈ B such that (x, y) is an ordered pair in f. We call this element f(x). We call A the domain and we call B the range.

How do you determine if a set of ordered pairs are functions?

A function is a set of ordered pairs in which no two different ordered pairs have the same x -coordinate. An equation that produces such a set of ordered pairs defines a function.

According to the question

Set of ordered pairs represent a function :

(-1,5), (0, -3), (2, 7), (4,0), (7, 5)

As we can observe that every point have different x value for there respective y ,

and A function is a set of ordered pairs in which no two different ordered pairs have the same x -coordinate.

Hence, Yes, this set of ordered pairs represent a function because every x value corresponds to exactly one y value

Comment on division of fractions

Fractions can be divided several ways. Two ways that are commonly taught are "invert and multiply", or "match denominators". Here, we have used the second of these methods.

If we were to "invert and multiply", the computation would be ...

  (33/8)(4/11) = (33/11)(4/8) = 3(1/2) = 3/2

Instead, we multiplied 11/4 by 2/2 to make it be 22/8, so having a denominator of 8 matching that of the numerator. Then the value of the compound fraction is the ratio of the numerators:

  (33/8)/(22/8) = 33/22 = (3/2)(11/11) = 3/2

6. x = 28 degrees

7.  z = 1.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

6.  

Notice that you can use the property that tells us that the addition of all internal angles of a triangle must give 180 degrees, then you write the following equation:

50 + 69 + (2 x +5) = 180

combine like terms:

119 + 2 x + 5 = 180

124 + 2 x = 180

subtract 124 from both sides:

2 x = 56

divide by 2 both sides:

x = 56 / 2

x = 28 degrees

Problem 7.

If the two triangles are congruent, then the side MN must equal side RS.

Since MN  measure 1,8 cm, then RS must also measure 1.8 cm

and we can write the equation:

1.8 = 3 z - 3

adding 3 to both sides:

1.8 + 3 = 3 z

4.8 = 3 z

dividing both sides by 3:

z = 4.8 / 3

z = 1.6 cm

What are the slopes of the perpendicular lines?

1: y=-5/2x-8
2: y=5x
3: y=3x-8

Answers

Answer:

1. 2/5

2. -1/5

3. -1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

the parpendicular slope is found by taking the original slope and finding the opposite reciprocal. so just flip the slope and make it the opposite sign

-5/2  --->    2/5

+5/1  --->    -1/5

+3/1  --->    -1/3

Answer:
1. 2/5
2. -1/5
3. -1/3

Explanation:
There are two key concepts that we have to understand in order to answer this question:

1) The given equations are organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b. Here’s what the variables mean:

Y= the y coordinate
M=the slope
X= the coordinate
B= the y intercept

From the given equations we can now identify the slopes as -5/2, 5 and 3.

2) Perpendicular lines have slopes that are NEGATIVE RECIPROCALS of each other.

Example: Line A has the slope 8. A line that is perpendicular to line A would have a slope of -1/8.

Example #2: Line B has the slope -2/3. A line that is perpendicular to line B would have a slope of 3/2 (two negatives make a positive).

Now that we understand these two concepts, we need to look at the slopes of the given lines and determine their negative reciprocals to find the slopes of their perpendicular lines.

1. y=-5/2x-8
We can see that -5/2 is in the place of “m” in y=mx+b. The negative reciprocal of -5/2 is 2/5, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=-5/2x-8 is 2/5.

2. y=5x
There is no “b” value in this equation, but we can still identify 5 as “m”. The negative reciprocal of 5 is -1/5, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to y=5c is -1/5.

3. y=3x-8
The negative reciprocal of 3 is -1/3, so therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to line y=3x-8 is -1/3.

I hope this helps! Please comment if you have any questions.

What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 2x + 3y= -12. (A)- 3/2. (B)-2/3. (C) 2/3. (D) 3/2

Answers

Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we need to rearrange the equation into slope intercept form:

[tex]2x + 3y = -12[/tex]

subtract 2x on both sides:

[tex]3y = -2x-12[/tex]

divide 3 on both sides:

[tex]y = \frac{-2}{3} x + 4[/tex]

Finally, we get it in the form y = mx + b. We know that in that form, m is the slope so that means, the slope is -2/3

Answer:
-2/3

Explanation:
The equation in the question is written in the standard form of a linear equation.

Standard form: Ax+By=C

A, B and C don’t have any direct interpretation on a graph, so we can’t identify the slope or really any information about the line when the equation is in standard form.

To identify the slope from an equation, we have to change it to slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form: y=mx+b

Here’s what the variables mean:

Y= the y-coordinate
M=the slope
X=the x-coordinate
B= the y-intercept (the point on the line that intercepts the y-axis)

1) Rearrange the equation
2x+3y=-12
Subtract both sides by 2x to isolate 3y
-2x+2x+3y=-2x-12
3y=-2x-12
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate y
3y/3=-2/3x-12/3
y=-2/3x-4

2) Identify the m variable
The value in place of the m variable in y=mx+b represents the slope. From the equation above, we can see clearly that -2/3x is in place of the m variable. Here’s a comparison:

y=mx+b
y=-2/3x-4

Therefore, the slope of the line represented by the equation 2x+3y=-12 is -2/3.

when the side lengths of a triangle are square numbers.

B. No, Gio's claim is incorrect because the Pythagorean theorem can only be used
with a right triangle.

C. Yes, Gio's claim is correct because the Pythagorean theorem can be used to find
the missing side in any triangle.

D. Yes, Gio's claim is correct because the Pythagorean theorem can be used with any
triangle that is approximately right.

Answers

Answer:

B. No, Gio's claim is incorrect because the Pythagorean theorem can only be used

with a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean theorem which is given as a² + b² = c², only applies to right triangles. Where, c is the hypotenuse side length that is opposite to the right angle of the triangle, while a and b are the two other legs of the right triangle.

The triangle given above is not a right angle. The measure of the missing length = 180 - (60 + 40) = 80°.

A right ∆ has an angle measure of 90°. Therefore, the pythagorean theorem cannot be applied in this case to solve for the missing side length, x.

So, Gio's claim is INCORRECT.
