Answer 1

Answer:

75m

Step-by-step explanation:

They are similar triangles: they have two corresponding angles: in a triangle with an angle of 90°, the other two will be of 45°.

Now that we know they are similar, we can calculate the ratio of the sides, by doing 10/2=5

We want to know the side AT, so we can do that by multiplying DC for 5:

DC = 15 × 5 = 75m

You can also check this by applying Pythagoras' Theorem:

DB =

[tex] \sqrt{15^{2} + 2^{2} } [/tex]

Which equals 15.1 m

The hypotenuse of the other triangle is 15.1 × 5 = 75.5 m

Finally, we can apply for the last time the Pythagoras' Theorem to find AT:

[tex] \sqrt{75.5^{2} - 10 {}^{2} } [/tex]

Which equals 74.8 = 75 m

From the question (see attachment), we have the following equivalent ratios:

[tex]AB : BE = DC :CE[/tex]

This is so because triangles ABE and DCE are similar triangles.

Such that:

[tex]BE + CE = 20[/tex]

[tex]AB = 16[/tex]

[tex]DC = 16 + 9 = 25[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]AB : BE = DC :CE[/tex]

[tex]16 : BE = 25: CE[/tex]

Make CE the subject in [tex]BE + CE = 20[/tex]

[tex]CE=20 - BE[/tex]

Substitute 20 - BE for CE in [tex]16 : BE = 25: CE[/tex]

[tex]16 : BE = 25: 20 - BE[/tex]

Express as ratio

[tex]\frac{16 }{ BE} = \frac{25}{ 20 - BE}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]16(20 - BE) = 25BE[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]320 - 16BE = 25BE[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]25BE + 16BE = 320[/tex]

[tex]41BE = 320[/tex]

Divide both sides by 41

[tex]BE = 7.8[/tex]

Hence, she should aim at 7.8 feet away from point  B

Weston has $4,000 in his bank account and withdraws $30 a week. Evie has $2,800 in her
bank account and deposits $40 a week.

Answers

The week in which Evie would have more money than Weston is the 18th week.

Let this equation represent the amount of money Weston would have in x weeks be: $4000 - $30x

Let this equation represent the amount of money Evie would have in x weeks be: $2800 +$40x

The first step is to determine when they would have the same amount of money:

$4000 - $30x = $2800 +$40x

$4000 - $2800 = $40x + $30x

1200 = $70x

x = 1200 / 70 = 17.14 weeks

After 17 weeks, Evie would have more money than Weston.

Here is the complete question: Weston has $4,000 in his bank account and withdraws $30 a week. Evie has $2,800 in her  bank account and deposits $40 a week. When will Evie have more money than Weston (in

weeks)?

Robert is ordering jerseys for the baseball team

A local company charges $5,25 for each jersey and $45 to create the design

An online company charges $7.75 for each jersey and $20 to create the design

For which number of jerseys is the cost the same at both companies?

A)26 jerseys
B)1 jersey
С)5 jerseys
D)10 jerseys

Answers

Answer: D) 10 jerseys

Step-by-step explanation:

Let j represent the number of jerseys and C for total cost

Local company eqn: C = 5.25j + 45

Online company eqn: C = 7.75j + 20

Set both sides equal to solve:

5.25j + 45 = 7.75j + 20

5.25j - 7.75j = 20 -45

- 2.5j = -25

[tex]\frac{-2.5j}{-2.5}=\frac{-25}{-2.5}[/tex]

j = 10

Therefore, the cost is the same for both companies when 10 jerseys are sold

Answers

Given that:

CI = ₹408

years = 2 years

Rate of interest = 4%

A = P{1+(R/100)}^

A-P = p{1+(R/100)}^n - P

I = P[1+(R/100)}^n - 1]

408 = P[{1+(4/100)²} - 1]

= P[{1+(1/25)²} - 1]

= P[(26/25)² - 1]

= P[(676/625) - 1]

= P[(676-625)/625]

408 = P(51/625)

P = 408*(625/51)

= 8*625 = 5000

Sum = 5000

Simple Interest (I) = (P*R)/100

= 5000*2*(4/100)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that

[tex](x + \frac{1}{x} ) {}^{2} = 3[/tex]

We are trying to find the number value so that we can apply in the later equation.

Qe first simplify.

Remeber that

[tex](a + b) {}^{2} = a {}^{2} + 2ab + {b}^{2} [/tex]

Also remeber that

[tex] \frac{1}{x} = {x}^{ - 1} [/tex]

so

[tex](x + x {}^{ - 1} ) {}^{2} = {x}^{2} + 2x {}^{0} + {x}^{ - 2} = 3[/tex]

We then simply remeber that x^0=1 so

[tex] {x}^{2} + 2 + \frac{1}{ {x}^{2} } = 3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by x^2.

[tex] {x}^{4} + 2 {x}^{2} + 1 = 3 {x}^{2} [/tex]

Subtract both sides by 3x^2

[tex] {x}^{4} - {x}^{2} + 1 = 0[/tex]

Notice that x^4= (x^2)^2.

So our reformed equation is

[tex]( {x}^{2} ) {}^{2} - {x}^{2} + 1 = 0[/tex]

Let a variable , w equal x^2. This means that we subsitute variable, w in for x^2.

[tex]w {}^{2} - w + 1 = 0[/tex]

Now we use the quadratic formula

[tex] w = \frac{ - b + \sqrt{b {}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} [/tex]

and

[tex]w = - b - \frac { \sqrt{b {}^{2} - 4ac } }{2a} [/tex]

Let a=1 b=-1 and c=1.

[tex]w = \frac{1 + \sqrt{1 - 4(1)} }{2} [/tex]

[tex]w = \frac{1 - \sqrt{1 - 4} }{2} [/tex]

Now, we get

[tex]w = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{i \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

and

[tex]w = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{ i\sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

Now since we set both of these to the x^2 we solve for x.

and

[tex] {x}^{2} = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{i \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

and

[tex] {x}^{2} = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{i \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

We can represent both of these as complex number in the form of a+bi. Next we can convert this into trig form which is

[tex] {x}^{2} = 1( \cos(60) + i \: \sin(60) [/tex]

and

[tex] {x}^{2} = 1( \cos(300) + i \: sin(300))[/tex]

Next we take the sqr root of 1 which is 1, and divide the degree by two.

[tex] {x} = 1( \cos(30) + i \: sin \: 30)[/tex]

and

[tex]x = 1( \cos(150) + i \: sin(150)[/tex]

We are asked for the 2nd root so just add 180 degrees to this and we have

[tex]x = 1 \cos(210) + i \: sin \: 210)[/tex]

and

[tex]x = 1( \cos(330) + i \: sin(330)[/tex]

which both simplified to

[tex]x = - \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - \frac{1}{2} i[/tex]

and

[tex]x = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} - \frac{1}{2} i[/tex]

Now we must find

x^18+x^12+x^6+1.

We just use demovire Theorem. Which is a complex number raised to the nth root is

[tex] {r}^{n} (cos(nx) + i \: sin(nx)[/tex]

So let plug in our first root.

[tex]1( \cos(330 \times 18)) + i \: sin \: (330 \times 18))) + 1( \cos(12 \times 330)) + i \: sin(12 \times 330) + 1( \cos(6 \times 330) + i \: sin(6 \times 330))) + 1[/tex]

To save time we multiply the angle and use rules of terminals angle and we get

[tex]1( \cos(180) + i \sin(180) ) + 1( \cos(0) + i \: sin \:( 0) + 1( \cos(180) + i \: sin(180) + 1[/tex]

And we get

[tex] - 1 + 1 + - 1 + 1 = 0[/tex]

So one of the answer is x=0

And the other, let see

[tex]1 \cos(210 \times 18) + i \: \sin(210 \times 18) + 1 \: cos(210 \times 12) + i \: sin(210 \times 12) + 1 \cos(210 \times 6) + \:i sin(210 \times 6) + 1[/tex]

[tex] \cos(180) + i \: sin(180) + 1 \cos(0) + i\sin(0) +1( \cos(0) + i \sin(0) + 1[/tex]

We get

[tex] - 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 2[/tex]

So our answer are 2.

So the answer to the second part is

0 and 2.

The face of a clock is divided into 12 equal parts. Which statements about the clock are accurate? Select three options. The central angle formed when one hand points at 1 and the other hand points at 3 is 30°. The circumference of the clock is approximately 62. 8 inches. The minor arc measure when one hand points at 12 and the other hand points at 4 is 120°. The length of the major arc between 3 and 10 is approximately 31. 4 inches. The length of the minor arc between 6 and 7 is approximately 5. 2 inches.

Answers

The accurate statements are:

b. The circumference of the clock is approximately 62.8 inches. c. The minor arc measure when one hand points at 12 and the other hand points at 4 is 120°.  e. The length of the minor arc between 6 and 7 is approximately 5.2 inches.

The given parameters are:

[tex]n = 12[/tex] --- number of parts

[tex]r = 10[/tex] --- the radius

(a) The central angle

Between points 1 and 3, there are 2 sections, each of which has a measure of 30 degrees.

So, the measure of the two sections is:

[tex]\theta = 30^o \times 2[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 60^o[/tex]

Hence, (a) is false

(b) The circumference

This is calculated using:

[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]C = 2 \times 3.14\times 10[/tex]

[tex]C = 62.8[/tex]

Hence, (b) is true

(c) The measure of the minor arc

Between points 12 and 4, there are 4 sections, each of which has a measure of 30 degrees.

So, the measure of the four sections is:

[tex]\theta = 30^o \times 4[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 120^o[/tex]

Hence, (c) is true

(d) The length of the major arc

Between points 3 and 10, there are 7 sections, each of which has a measure of 30 degrees.

So, the measure of the seven sections is:

[tex]\theta = 30^o \times 7[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 210^o[/tex]

The length of the arc is:

[tex]L = \frac{\theta}{360} \times 2\pi r[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]L = \frac{210}{360} \times 2 \times 3.14 \times 10[/tex]

[tex]L = \frac{13188}{360}[/tex]

[tex]L = 36.3[/tex]

Hence, (d) is false

(e) The length of the minor arc

There is only one section between points 6 and 7

So, the measure of the section is:

[tex]\theta = 30^o[/tex]

The length of the arc is:

[tex]L = \frac{\theta}{360} \times 2\pi r[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]L = \frac{30}{360} \times 2 \times 3.14 \times 10[/tex]

[tex]L = \frac{1884}{360}[/tex]

[tex]L = 5.2[/tex]

Hence, (e) is true
