A line passes through the points (6​,​ -3)​ and (j,​ -4)​. If the slope of the line is 1/3 find the value of j​.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

j = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the slope formula:

[tex]m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]

Now, simply substitute the values from the question.

[tex]\frac{1}{3} =\frac{-4+3}{j-6}[/tex]

Now, use the cross-multiplication method. (remember, when subtracting negatives, the negative becomes a positive)

[tex]1(j-6)=3(-4+3)[/tex]             Cross Multiplication

[tex]1(j-6)=3(-1)[/tex]                   Simplify

[tex]j-6=-3[/tex]                            Distributive Property

[tex]j=3[/tex]                                     Addition Property

Therefore, j = 3.

PQR is similar to WXY. PQ =12 cm and WX=9 cm. The area of WXY is 72 cm2. Find the area of PQR. ​

Answers

If PQR is similar to WXY and PQ=12 cm and WX=9 cm and the area of WXY is 72cm², then the area of PQR is equal to 128 cm².

The area of PQR can be determined by first finding the scale factor. The scale factor in mathematics can be defined as the ratio of the length of a side of one figure (which in this case is a triangle) to the length of the side of a similar figure.

Therefore, the scale factor = 9 / 12

Now by using theorem 61,

area ΔWXY / area ΔPQR = (9/12)²

As the area of WXY = 72cm², therefore;

72 / area ΔPQR = 81 / 144

81 (area ΔPQR) = 144 × 72

81 (area ΔPQR) = 10,368

area ΔPQR = 10,368 / 81

area ΔPQR = 128 cm²

Hence, the area of PQR is calculated to be 128 cm².

Do the math: the price of iron ore can be measured per ton. a ton is about the
weight of a cow. if the price of 1 ton of iron ore starts at $104 per ton with a
quantity demanded of 90 tons, then rises to $211 per ton, what is the new quantity
demanded at this price? assume the slope of the demand curve is -3.2 and the
y-intercept is $392. round your answer to the nearest tenth of a ton.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

56.6 tons.

Based on the slope of the demand curve and the new price of iron ore, the new quantity demanded at the new price of $211 is 49.60 tons

What is the new equilibrium quantity demanded?

The equation given will allow us to find the new quantity demanded:

y = Mx + c

y = new quantity demanded

m = slope of the demand curve

x = change in price of iron ore

c = y intercept

Solving for the new quantity demanded at the new price gives:

= -3.2 x (211 - 104) + 392

= -342.40 + 392

How to determine the expression and the inequality?

The mathematical statement is given as

a number is at least 6 and less than 15.

Represent the number with x

So, we have

x is at least 6 and less than 15.

At least 6 means greater than or equal 6

So, we have

x >= 6

Less than 15

So, we have

x < 15

When the above expressions are combined, we have

6 <= x < 15

(A) 9√3 (B) 8√9 (C) 15√3⁸ (D) 9√3¹⁵

Answers

The product of ∛3 and 5√3 is 15√3⁸ (Option C).

This question can be easily solved by using the concept of roots. The two terms mentioned in the question are ∛3 ( cubic root of 3 ) and  5√3 (5th root of 3 ). This question can be solved in 4 easy steps

Step 1 : Identify the power of the root and take LCM of those numbers.

In this case, the powers of root for ∛3 and 5√3 are 3 and 5, respectively. Take LCM of 3 and 5.

LCM = 3 x 5 = 15

=> We get the LCM of 3 and 5 as 15.

Step 2 : Write the given numbers in the form of fractional powers

∛3 = 3¹ˡ³  => The power of 3 = 1/3

5√3 = 3¹ˡ⁵  => The power of 5 = 1/5

Step 3 : Multiply and divide the powers of the base number ( in this case 3 ) with a number such that you get the denominator as the LCM ( in this case 15 )

1/3  can be multiplied and divided by 5 to get the denominator as 15

=> 1 * 5 / 3 * 5 = 5 /15

1/5  can be multiplied and divided by 3 to get the denominator as 15

=> 1 * 3 / 5 * 3 = 3 /15

Step 4 : Find the product of the two terms

15√3⁵ x 15√3³ = 15√3³⁺⁵ = 15√3⁸

Therefore, using the concept of roots and fractions, we get the product of ∛3 and 5√3 as 15√3⁸.

Answers

We know that 6, 8, 10 and 5, 12, 13 are Pythagorean triples.

The formula to see if a set of three numbers is a pythagorean triple is:

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

For the first one, we can do

6^2 + 8^2 = 10^2 and see if it is true.

36 + 64 = 100, so this works.

The next one, we can do

5^2 + 12^2 = 13^2

25 + 144 = 169

This also works.

So in conclusion, using the formula, we can prove that they are both Pythagorean triples.

I hope this is clear to you, have a great day! :)

Step-by-step explanation:Given :Pythagorean triple number set 6,8,10 and 5,12,13To Find :Show why they are Pythagorean triple.Solution :

a = y² - x²

b = 2xy

c = x² + y²

where x and y are positive integers y > x

In Pythagorean triple number set 6,8,10

c² = a² + b²(10)² = (6)² + (8)²100 = 36 + 64100 = 100

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

455 divided by 35%

= 455 x 100/35

= 455 x 20/7

= 65 x 20

= 1300

The total number of people attending the game is 2100.

Given that, at a baseball game, 35% of people attending were supporting the home team, while 65% were supporting the visiting team.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

Let the total number of people attending the game be x.

Given, 735 people attending the game supported the home team.

Now, 35% of x=735

⇒ 35/100 × x=735

⇒ 35x=73500

⇒ x=73500/35

⇒ x=2100

Therefore, the total number of people attending the game is 2100.
