Read the following excerpt from a personal narrative essay. Based on the excerpt, what did the writer learn from her personal experience?

Have you ever been canoeing? I went on a canoeing trip with my mom, dad, and two brothers when I turned 13. It was one of the best days of my life. It was exciting, scary, and challenging all at once. At first I couldn’t believe those long, narrow pieces of wood could hold all five of us. But our instructor told us that canoes have been around for many years. He also told us some interesting facts about the history of canoe, like how American Indians used canoes as a way to travel quickly.

He patted the wood of the canoe we would be using. “It’s made of an old tree trunk,” he said.

I asked the question that had been bothering me ever since I saw our canoe. “Can it really hold all of us?” I pointed to my brothers and me. “It looks like the bottom could fall right off.”

The instructor laughed. “Oh, you’ll be surprised how strong this wood is. If our customers were always drowning, we’d have a 'sinking' business on our hands.”

He laughed some more at his own joke. Then he became serious and showed us how to keep our balance while getting into and out of the boat. He also showed me how to grip the paddle so that my left hand would guide the boat and my right hand would give the paddle power.

A.
Canoeing is dangerous, and only people who are experts can do it.
B.
Even events that seem a little scary can turn out to be great.
C.
The best age to go on a canoeing trip is 13.
D.
Canoeing can cause injury if you’re new to the sport.

Hi there!

Recall that slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Where m = slope

In this instance, we are given a slope of 4,

therefore:

y = 4x + b

Substitute in the x and y coordinates of the point given:

0 = 4(3) + b

0 = 12 + b

Substract 12 from both side:

-12 = b

Therefore, the equation would be:

y = 4x - 12

Graph the equation by finding x and y values or using a calculator:

x = 0, y = 4(0) - 12 = 12 (0, 12)

x = 1, y = 4(1) - 12 = - 8 (1, -8)

x = 2, y = 4(2) - 12 = - 4 (2, -4)

x = 3, y = 4(3) - 12 = 0 (3, 0)

And so forth:

Answer:

Number of families will have both radio and television = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of family have radio = 794

Number of family have TV = 187

Number of family haven't both = 63

Find:

Number of families will have both radio and television

Computation:

Number of families will have Tv or radio = 1,000 - 63

Number of families will have Tv or radio = 937

Number of family have one of them = 794 + 187

Number of family have one of them = 981

Number of families will have both radio and television = 981 - 937

Number of families will have both radio and television = 44

Domain of inverse = Range of f = x>-4

Hence B

The correct option is B which is f⁻¹(x) = ( x + 4 )² and x ≥ -4.

The inverse function of a function f in mathematics is a function that reverses the operation of f. If and only if f is bijective, the inverse of f is true.

A function's range is the collection of values it can take as input. After we enter an x value, the function outputs this sequence of values.

The given function is f(x) = √x - 4. The inverse function will be calculated as:-

y = √x - 4

√x = y + 4

Squaring on both sides.

x = ( y + 4 )²

Replace x with y.

y = ( x + 4 )²

The range of the function is x ≥ -4.

Therefore, the correct option is B which is f⁻¹(x) = ( x + 4 )² and x ≥ -4.

Answer:

[tex]19-\frac{28}{n}[/tex] is the expression with the value of 15 when n = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the expression whose value is 15, substitute the value of n = 7 in each given expression.

Expression 1:

[tex]43-5n[/tex]

Substitute the value of n & simplify,

[tex]43-5(7)[/tex]

[tex]43-35=8[/tex]

Since the value of the expression is 8 which is not equal 15.

Hence expression [tex]43-5n[/tex] does not have value of 15 when n = 7.

Expression 2:

[tex]3n-5[/tex]

Substituting the value of n & simplify,

Answer:

2720

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Price of the ticket = 2828.80

To find,

The price before the increase = ?

Procedure:

Let the price before the increase be x

so,

x(100% + 4%) = 2828.80

⇒ 1.04x = 2828.80

⇒ x = 2828.80 ÷ 1.04

∵ x = 2720

Thus, the price before the increase was 2720.

Given equation of the Circle is ,

[tex]\sf\implies x^2 + y^2 = 25 [/tex]

And we need to tell that whether the point (-4,2) lies inside or outside the circle. On converting the equation into Standard form and determinimg the centre of the circle as ,

[tex]\sf\implies (x-0)^2 +( y-0)^2 = 5 ^2[/tex]

Here we can say that ,

• Radius = 5 units

• Centre = (0,0)

Finding distance between the two points :-

[tex]\sf\implies Distance = \sqrt{ (0+4)^2+(2-0)^2} \\\\\sf\implies Distance = \sqrt{ 16 + 4 } \\\\\sf\implies Distance =\sqrt{20}\\\\\sf\implies\red{ Distance = 4.47 }[/tex]

Here we can see that the distance of point from centre is less than the radius.

Hence the point lies within the circle .

The true statement about the exponential functions is (b) the functions f(x) and g(x) are reflections over the y-axis.

The functions are given as:

[tex]f(x) = 2^x[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = (\frac 12)^x[/tex]

Reflect function over the y-axis.

The rule of this transformation is:

[tex](x,y)\to (-x,y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f(x) = 2^x[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = 2^{-x}[/tex]

Apply power rule of indices

[tex]f'(x) = (\frac{1}{2})^x[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]g(x) = f'(x) = (\frac{1}{2})^x[/tex]

Hence, the functions f(x) and g(x) are reflections over the y-axis.

Answer:

[tex] \frac{ - 81}{9} [/tex]

[tex] - 9[/tex]

Explanation:

Angle E is 90 degrees. The segment DC = 53 is opposite this angle. Note how "DC" does not contain the letter "E". Furthermore, note how this is the largest side. So it's the hypotenuse.

The side ED = 28 is the opposite side of reference angle C, because "C" is nowhere to be found in the sequence "ED".

The side CE = 45 is the adjacent side because "E" is found in "CE".

The tangent ratio is...

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(C) = ED/CE

tan(C) = 28/45

Answer:

The angle measures 25°; the complement measures 65°; the supplement measures 155°.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of two complementary angles is 90.

If the angles measure x and y, then x + y = 90.

Given angle x, then y = 90 - x.

The sum of the measures of two supplementary angles is 180.

If the angles measure x and y, then x + y = 180.

Given angle x, then y = 180 - x.

Let the angle be x.

Its complement is 90 - x.

Its supplement is 180 - x.

5(90 - x) = 2(180 - x) + 15

450 - 5x = 360 - 2x + 15

-3x = -75

Angle: x = 25

Complement: 90 - x = 90 - 25 = 65

Supplement: 180 - x = 180 - 25 = 155

Answer: The angle measures 25°.;, the complement measures 65°; the supplement measures 155°.

Answer:

260 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a parallelogram is:

b x h

Where the base (b) is multiplied by the height (h) perpendicular to it.

The base here is 20 cm

The height perpendicular to the base is 13 cm

20 x 13 = 260

Or you can decompose and rearrange it into a rectangle. You will get 20 cm as the length and 13 cm as the width. The answer will be just the same!

Hope this helps!

Answer: 260 cm²

Step-by-step explanation: A parallelogram is a

quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

The formula for the area of a parallelogram is A = bh.

Since the base of the parallelogram is 20 cm and the height

of the parallelogram is 13 cm, we can plug this information into the formula

to get (20 cm)(13 cm) which gives us 260 cm².

So the area of the parallelogram shown is 260 cm².

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in both right triangles

To find BD

BD² + CD² = BC²

BD² + 8² = 17²

BD² + 64 = 289 ( subtract 64 from both sides )

BD² = 225 ( take the square root of both sides )

BD = [tex]\sqrt{225}[/tex] = 15

Then

AD = AB - BD = 21 - 15 = 6

To find AC

AC² = AD² + CD²

AC² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100 ( take the square root of both sides )

AC = [tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex] = 10 → C
