Findx.Assume The Middle Line Is A Midsegment In The Problems Below:HELPPPPPP

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  x = 12

midsegment is 16 units long

bottom side is 32 units long

===============================================

Work Shown:

The midsegment 2x-8 is parallel to the bottom side 2x+8

The bottom side is twice as long compared to the midsegment (since the midsegment is half the length of the bottom side).

We can say

bottom side = 2*(midsegment)

2x+8 = 2*(2x-8)

2x+8 = 4x-16

2x-4x = -16-8

-2x = -24

x = -24/(-2)

x = 12

--------------------

Extra info:

Now that we know x, we can find the length of those segments

midsegment = 2x-8 = 2*12-8 = 24-8 = 16

bottom side = 2x+8 = 2*12+8 = 24+8 = 32

Note the bottom side (32) is exactly twice as long compared to the midsegment (16). This confirms we have the correct x value.

Answer:

a=b/4

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 4b from both sides to end up with a=b-3a and then add 3a to both sides to get 4a=b, and divide both sides by 4 to get a=b/4.

Answer:

a + 4b + 5b - 3a can only be solved by a little.

Step-by-step explanation:

a + 3a =3a.

4b + 5b = 9b.

we can't solve 9b - 3a, since they have different functions, so 9b - 3a is the answer.

Harold wants to borrow $1,400 for 5 years. The interest rate is 9%. How much interest will he pay over the course of the loan?

Answers

Answer: He will pay $630 over the course of the loan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for simple interest :

S.I. = PRT, where P=principal amount , R =rate of interest ( in decimal), T=time (in years)

As per given ,

P = $1,400 ,  t = 5 years , r = 9% = 0.09

Simple interest = (1400) x (0.09) x (5)

⇒ Simple interest = $ 630

Hence, he will pay $630 over the course of the loan.

Emma is playing miniature golf. Her ball is 2 feet of the right-wall. The hole is 4 feet to the left of the wall. The distance along the wall between her ballet and the hole is 18 feet. There is an obstacle between between her ball and the hole, so Emma must hit her ball off the right-hand wall to reflect it towards the hole. How far down the wall should she aim?

Answers

Answer:

She should aim 6 feet down the wall

Explanation:

The diagram attached sketches the situtation.

Since the angle with which the ball hits the wall is the same with which it bounces, angle β is the same for the two shown triangles.

Then, since both are right triangles, then all the angles are congruent and the triangles are similar. Hence, you can equal the ratios of the sides, to make an equation:

x/4 = y/2 ⇒ x = 2y

You have other equation:

x+ y = 18

Substitute

2y + y = 18

3y = 18

y = 18/3

y = 6 ← this is the distance down the wall where the ball should hit

x = 2(6) = 12

Then, she should aim 6 feet down the wall.

Which comparison symbol makes each inequality statement true? Enter < , > , or = to make each statement true. Enter your answers in the boxes. −3.632 −3.792 |−3.632| |−3.792|

Answers

Answer:

−3.632 > −3.792

|−3.632| < |−3.792|

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

−3.632 −3.792 |−3.632| |−3.792|

First comparison :

−3.632 −3.792

Using the knowledge of number line :

- 3.792 occurs farther to the left of a number line than - 3.632, and numbers which occurs farther to the left are lesser. Therefore,

−3.632 > −3.792

2.)

|−3.632| |−3.792|

The presence of the absolute value symbol annuls the negative sign in the digit given. Hence, we can view both numbers as being positive values as ; 3.632 3.792

Numbers further to the right of a number line are greater and 3.792 occurs farther to the right than 3.632.

Hence,

|−3.632| < |−3.792|

Lenny works at Lexus selling cars. His salary is $40,000 a year plus commission. He gets 1.25% commission on the cars he sells. Lexus cars are expensive and cost $50,000 each on average. After a year, Lenny sells $2,500,000 worth of cars. What is Lenny's total income after a year?

Answers

Answer:

$71, 250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fixed salary of Lenny = $40,000

Commission on the cars sold by Lenny = 1.25%

Cost of each Lexus car = $50,000

Total worth of which cars are sold by Lenny = $2,500,000

To find:

Lenny's total income after a year?

Solution:

Lenny's salary consists of two parts i.e. Fixed salary and the variable part as per the commission depending upon the sales done by Lenny.

Fixed salary = $40,000

Commission earned = 1.25% of $2,500,000

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{1.25}{100}\times 2500000\\\Rightarrow \$31,250[/tex]

Therefore, Lenny's total salary after a year = $40,000 + $31,250 = $71, 250

A baseball team played 160 regular season games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was three fifths. How many games did they​ win

Answers

Answer: They won 60 games and lost 100 games

Explanation: To find this, first, we need to keep in mind that for every 8 games they played, they won 3, and lost 5. With this, we need to do 160/8 and we will get 20. Finally, to find # of games won, we will do 3(20) which is 60, and to find # of games lost, we will do 5(20) which is 100. Hope this helped!

Jorge is asked to build a box in the shape of a rectangular prism. The maximum girth of the box is 20 cm. What is the width of the box that would yield the maximum volume? What is the maximum volume given a girth of 20 cm? Use a graphing calculator to determine the width that provides the maximum volume, round to the nearest tenth.

The width of the box is __________cm
The maximum volume is __________cm3

Answers

Answer:

The width of the box is 6.7 cm

The maximum volume is 148.1 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of the box Jorge is asked to build are;

The maximum girth of the box = 20 cm

The nature of the sides of the box = 2 square sides and 4 rectangular sides

The side length of square side of the box = w

The length of the rectangular side of the box = l

Therefore, we have;

The girth = 2·w + 2·l = 20 cm

∴ w + l = 20/2 = 10

w + l = 10

l = 10 - w

The volume of the box, V = Area of square side × Length of rectangular side

∴ V = w × w × l = w × w × (10 - w)

V = 10·w² - w³

At the maximum volume, we have;

dV/dw = d(10·w² - w³)/dw = 0

∴ d(10·w² - w³)/dw = 2×10·w - 3·w² = 0

2×10·w - 3·w² = 20·w - 3·w² = 0

20·w - 3·w² = 0 at the maximum volume

w·(20 - 3·w) = 0

∴ w = 0 or w = 20/3 = 6.[tex]\overline 6[/tex]

Given that 6.[tex]\overline 6[/tex] > 0, we have;

At the maximum volume, the width of the block, w = 6.[tex]\overline 6[/tex] cm ≈ 6.7 cm

The maximum volume, [tex]V_{max}[/tex], is therefore given when w = 6.[tex]\overline 6[/tex] cm = 20/3 cm  as follows;

V = 10·w² - w³

[tex]V_{max}[/tex] = 10·(20/3)² - (20/3)³ = 4000/27 = 148.[tex]\overline {148}[/tex]

The maximum volume, [tex]V_{max}[/tex] = 148.[tex]\overline {148}[/tex] cm³ ≈ 148.1 cm³

Using a graphing calculator, also, we have by finding the extremum of the function V = 10·w² - w³, the coordinate of the maximum point is (20/3, 4000/27)

The width of the box is;

6.7 cm

The maximum volume is;

148.1 cm³
