Two sales representatives leave from the same office. One travels 20 miles due north and the other travels 5 miles due west. How far apart are the sales representatives? Estimate the distance to the nearest tenth. 22.6 mi 16.4 mi 20.6 mi 11.8 mi

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d = 20.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Two sales representatives leave from the same office. One travels 20 miles due north and the other travels 5 miles due west.

It is required to find the distance between two representatives. It it is d. It can be calculated as the resultant if two values as follows :

[tex]d=\sqrt{20^2+5^2} \\\\=20.61\ mi[/tex]

So, the sales representative are 20.6 miles apart. Hence, the correct option is (c).

Write an equation of the line given an intercepts. Express in standard form.
1. x – intercept is 4 and y – intercept is 3.
2. x – intercept is -2 and y – intercept is 5.

Answers

Answer:

Required equations in standard form are:

1. 3x+4y=12

2. -5x+2y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of equation is given as:

[tex]Ax+By = C[/tex]

1. x – intercept is 4 and y – intercept is 3.

The points will be:

(4,0) and (0,3)

Slope: m = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{3-0}{0-4}\\m = -\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Slope intercept form of line is:

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

Putting the values of m and b(y-intercept)

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

Multiplying whole equation by 4

[tex]4y = -3x+12\\3x+4y = 12[/tex]

2. x – intercept is -2 and y – intercept is 5

The points will be:

(-2,0) and (0,5)

Now

[tex]m = \frac{5-0}{0+2}\\m = \frac{5}{2}[/tex]

Putting the values of m and b in slope intercept form

[tex]y = \frac{5}{2}x+5[/tex]

Multiplying the equation by 2

[tex]2y = 5x+10[/tex]

[tex]-5x+2y=10[/tex]

Hence,

Required equations in standard form are:

1. 3x+4y=12

2. -5x+2y = 10

She charges her customers a call out fee of £35, plus £30 per hour.
How much should a customer be charged for wiring a house with 10 lightswitch?

Answers

Answer:

£395

Step-by-step explanation:

call out fee = 35

30 per hour = 2 hour to be = 60

but, 12 minutes in hour = 12/60 = 0.2

0.2 = 0.2*30 = 6

2 hours and 12 minutes would be charges as

30 + 6 = 36

36*10 = 360

call out fee + per hour = 35 + 360 = 395

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the Line

The standard form of the equation of a line is shown below:

Ax+By=C

And the slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we wanted to convert from the first form to the second we will perform the following operations:

Subtract Ax:

By = -Ax + C

Divide by B:

y = -A/Bx+C/B

The coefficient of x is -A/B (fill the blank with that text) and the y-intercept is C/B (again, fill in the blank)

The slope m is the coefficient of x, m=-A/B and it can be found it you divide the opposite of A by B. The selected option is correct.

The y-intercept is the division of C by B. Again, the selected option is correct.

Find all points (x, y) where the functions f(x), g(x), h(x) have the same value: f(x) = 2^(x−5) + 3, g(x) = 2x − 5, h(x) = 8/x + 10
quickly please!!!!

Answers

Answer:

The point where f(x), g(x), and h(x) have the same value is (8, 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

The points where g(x) and h(x) have the same value is given as follows;

2x - 5 = 8/x + 10

2x² - 15x - 8 = 0

Using an online tool, we have;

(x - 8)(2x + 1) = 0

x = 8 or x = -1/2

∴ g(x) and h(x) = 11 or y = -6

For x = 8, we have;

f(x) = 2^(x - 5) + 3 = 2^(8 - 5) + 3 = 2^3 + 3 = 11

For x = -1/2, we have;

f(x) = 2^(-1/2 - 5) + 3 = 3.022

Therefore, the point where f(x), g(x), and h(x) have the same value is (8, 11), therefore, for x = 8, f(x) = g(x) = h(x) = 11.

The sum of three numbers is 107. The second number is 7 less than the first. The third number is 3 times the second. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer:

27, 20, 60

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the equation

(x) + (x - 7) + (3 * (x - 7)) = 107

= x + x - 7 + 3 * (x - 7) = 107

= 2x - 7 + 3(x - 7) = 107

Add  7 on both sides

= 2x + 3(x - 7) = 114

Expand the 3

= 2x + 3x - 21 = 114

= 5x - 21 = 114

Add 21 on both sides

= 5x = 135

Divide 5 on both sides

= 5x/5 = 135/5

= x = 27

Plug the functions in

(27) + (27 - 7) + (3 * (27-7)) = 107

You would get

27 + 20 + 60 = 107, therefore the numbers are 27, 20, 60
