what is a postulate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A statement, also known as an axiom, which is taken to be true without proof. Postulates are the basic structure from which lemmas and theorems are derived.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Addition Postulate: If you have one apple and Sally has one apple, when you both add the same quantity to your existing number of apples, you'll still have the same number of apples. Using algebra, the postulate states:

If x = y, then x + 4 = y + 4

The Subtraction Postulate: If you have ten apples and Sally has ten apples, when you both subtract the same quantity of apples from your existing number of apples, you'll still have the same number of apples.

If x = y, then x - 3 = y - 3

Without being repetitive, these same principles apply to both multiplication and division.

The Multiplication Postulate: If x = y, then x * 3 = y * 3

The Division Postulate: If x = y, then x / 7 = y / 7

Assemble 45 groups of 15 tiles each.

Answers

Answer: B. Start with 45 tiles and separate them into 15 same-sized groups

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, 45 is divided by 15

#1 we should start with the total amount (dividend) that is going to be divided which is 45

#2 we should separate the dividend into the divisors amount which is 15

with all the steps, we will get the 3 groups of 15 which will be the answer

Answers

Answer:

m<EBD = 130 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say that Line EC is bisected by Line AD at point B.  The angle CBD = 50 degrees is a supplement of the bisected line EC.  With this in mind we can say:

EBD + CBD = 180

And we can solve for EBD:

EBD + CBD = 180

EBD + 50 = 180

EBD = 130

So the measure of angle EBD is 130 degrees.

Cheers.

Answer:

130°

Step-by-step explanation:

You need the remaining angle. 50° and the missing angle make up 180°. Therefore, you need to subtract 50 from 180. 180 - 50 = 130. Hence, the missing angle is 130°.

0.4x - 2.5 = 1.3x + 4.7

Answers

Simplifying
0.4x + -2.5 = 1.3x + 4.7

Reorder the terms:
-2.5 + 0.4x = 1.3x + 4.7

Reorder the terms:
-2.5 + 0.4x = 4.7 + 1.3x

Solving
-2.5 + 0.4x = 4.7 + 1.3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1.3x' to each side of the equation.
-2.5 + 0.4x + -1.3x = 4.7 + 1.3x + -1.3x

Combine like terms: 0.4x + -1.3x = -0.9x
-2.5 + -0.9x = 4.7 + 1.3x + -1.3x

Combine like terms: 1.3x + -1.3x = 0.0
-2.5 + -0.9x = 4.7 + 0.0
-2.5 + -0.9x = 4.7

Add '2.5' to each side of the equation.
-2.5 + 2.5 + -0.9x = 4.7 + 2.5

Combine like terms: -2.5 + 2.5 = 0.0
0.0 + -0.9x = 4.7 + 2.5
-0.9x = 4.7 + 2.5

Combine like terms: 4.7 + 2.5 = 7.2
-0.9x = 7.2

Divide each side by '-0.9'.
x = -8

Simplifying
x = -8

Answer:

x=-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1.)   0.4x-2.5=1.3x+4.7

Step 2.)  -2.5=1.3x-0.4x+4.7

Step 3.)   -2.5=0.9x+4.7

Step 4.)   -2.5-4.7=0.9x

Step 5.)   -7.2=0.9x

Step 6.)    -7.2/0.9=x

Step 7.)    -8=x

Louise is making bags of party favors. She has 16 stickers and 24 bracelets. She wants each bag to be alike, and she needs to use all of the stickers and bracelets. What is the greatest number of party bags she can make?

Answers

Find the multiples of each number:

16:  2, 4, 8, 16

24: 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12

Now for the greatest number of bags, use the greatest common factor.

The greatest common factor is 8

16 / 8 = 2

24 / 8 = 3

She can make 8 bags which contains 2 stickers and 3 bracelets in each bag.

Answer:

8 party bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing with greatest common factor.

16= 1,2,4,8

24=1,2,3,4,6,8,12

Now we see the greatest common factor is 8 bags. Since we know its 8 bags, we can make this conclusion. 16/8= 2 stickers each bag. 24/8=3 bracelets each bag. So, the greatest number of party bags she can make is: 8 bags.

More info: 2 stickers each. 3 bracelets each.

What is the first derivative of p with respect to q (i.e., differentiate P with respect to q)?P = 6q2 + 3

Answers

Answer:

12q

Step-by-step explanation:

Given P = 6q² + 3, we are to find the derivative of the function with respect to q. Generally if y = axⁿ;

dy/dx = naxⁿ⁻¹

Rewriting the given equation as P =  6q² + 3q⁰

Using the formula to find the derivative;

dP/dq = 2(6)q²⁻¹ + 0(3)q⁰⁻¹

dP/dq = 12q¹ + 0

dP/dq = 12q

Hence the derivative of the function P with respect to q is 12q

Answers

Answer:

original price = $270 new price = $306.99

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this we first have to find the original price.

13.7 % of the original price is $36.99 from the  question.

We multiply 100 /13.7 * 13.7 /100 to get the 100% value or the original price.

We also multiply 100 /13.7 * 36.99 = $270 to get the original value.

So the original price is $270.

We add $36.99 to the original price to get the new price.

$270 + $36.99 = $306.99

Solve the following equations by factorisation method.Only factorisation not dharacharya.​

Answers

Hello, please consider the following.

When [tex]x_1[/tex] and [tex]x_2[/tex] are two roots, we can factorise as

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)=a(x^2-(x_1+x_2)x+x_1x_2)=0[/tex]

So for the first equation, we can say that the sum of the zeros is

[tex]\dfrac{a^2+b^2}{2}=\dfrac{a^2}{2}+\dfrac{b^2}{2}[/tex]

and the product is

[tex]\dfrac{a^2b^2}{4}=\dfrac{a^2}{2}\dfrac{b^2}{2}[/tex]

So we can factorise as below.

[tex]4x^2-2(a^2+b^2)x+a^2b^2=(2x-a^2)(2x-b^2)=0[/tex]

And the solutions are

[tex]\boxed{\sf \n\bf \ \dfrac{a^2}{2} \ \ and \ \ \dfrac{b^2}{2}}[/tex]

For the second equation, we will complete the square and put the constant on the right side and take the root.

Let's do it!

[tex]9x^2-9(a+b)x+2a^2+5ab+2b^2=0\\\\9(x-\dfrac{a+b}{2})^2-9\dfrac{(a+b)^2}{4}+2a^2+5ab+2b^2=0\\\\9(x-\dfrac{a+b}{2})^2=\dfrac{9(a+b)^2-8a^2-20ab-8b^2}{4}\\\\9(x-\dfrac{a+b}{2})^2=\dfrac{9a^2+18ab+9b^2-8a^2-20ab-8b^2}{4}\\\\9(x-\dfrac{a+b}{2})^2=\dfrac{a^2+b^2-2ab}{4}=\dfrac{(a-b)^2}{4}\\\\(x-\dfrac{a+b}{2})^2=\dfrac{(a-b)^2}{2^2\cdot 3^2}[/tex]

We take the root, and we find the two solutions

[tex]\begin{aligned}x_1&=\dfrac{a+b}{2}-\dfrac{a-b}{6}\\\\&=\dfrac{3a+3b-a+b}{6}\\\\&=\dfrac{2a+4b}{6}\\\\&\boxed{=\dfrac{a+2b}{3}}\end{aligned}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned}x_1&=\dfrac{a+b}{2}+\dfrac{a-b}{6}\\\\&=\dfrac{3a+3b+a-b}{6}\\\\&=\dfrac{4a+2b}{6}\\\\&\boxed{=\dfrac{2a+b}{3}}\end{aligned}[/tex]

10x - 5y = -25
l0x+8y=14

Answers

Greetings,

I hope you and your family are staying safe and healthy!

Answer: x = -1 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]10x - 5y = -25 \\10x + 8y = 14[/tex]

Let's start by solving [tex]10x - 5y = -25[/tex] for [tex]x[/tex]

[tex]10x - 5y=-25[/tex]

Add 5y to both sides

[tex]10x - 5y + 5y = -25+5y \\10x = 5y - 25[/tex]

Now we need to divide both sides by 10

[tex]\frac{10x}{10} = \frac{5y-25}{10}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{1}{2} y + \frac{-5}{2}[/tex]

That's not the answer for x. We are not done yet :)

Now we need to substitute [tex]\frac{1}{2} y + \frac{-5}{2}[/tex] for [tex]x[/tex]

[tex]10x + 8y = 14\\10(\frac{1}{2} y + \frac{-5}{2} + 8y = 14[/tex]

Now we need to simply both sides

[tex]13y - 25 = 14[/tex]

Now we need to add 25 to both sides

[tex]13y - 25 + 25 = 14 + 25 \\13y = 39 \\y = \frac{39}{13} \\y=3[/tex]

We have the valuee for y! Now we need to find the value for x

To find the value of x, we need to substitute 3 for y in:

[tex]x = \frac{1}{2} y + \frac{-5}{2} \\x = \frac{1}{2} 3 + \frac{-5}{} \\x = -1[/tex]

Therefore,

The answer is x = -1 and y = 3

The domain is simply the range of x-values the graph encompasses. From the given graph, we can see that the graph stretches from x=-4 to x=+4.

However, note that the graph does not include -4 since the point is an open circle. However, it does include +4 since the point is a closed circle. Therefore, the domain of this graph is:
