What is a Rational Number?

This refers to the type of number that is expressed as the ratio of two integers that has a non-zero denominator.

Calculations and Parameters

Let the numerator be x

Let the denominator be x+2

If 5 is subtracted from the numerator

x - 5

If 5 is added to the denominator

x +2 + 5

x-5/x+7= 1/4

Cross multiply the values

What is slope of a line segment ?

Slope is the ratio of the difference in y-coordinates over the equivalent x-coordinates between two different locations on a line.

It is given that the vertices of a triangle are P(-6,1), Q(-2,-5) and R(8,1).

a.

The midpoint (M) of QR will be equal to

( [tex]\frac{-2 + 8}{2} , \frac{-5 + 1}{2}[/tex] )

or

M = (-3 , 2)

Now , slope of line QR will be ;

[tex]m_{QR}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1+5}{8+2}[/tex]

[tex]m_{QR}[/tex] = 6 / 10

We know that :

m × [tex]m_{QR}[/tex] = -1

m = -10 / 6

or

m = -5 / 3

Equation of line will be given as :

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

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

b.

The midpoint of PQ will be :

= ([tex]\frac{-6 - 2}{2} , \frac{1 - 5}{2}[/tex])

= ( -4 , -2)

The slope of median of triangle that passes through point R will be ;

m = [tex]\frac{-2 - 1}{-4-8}[/tex]

m = -3 / -12

m = 1/4

or

m = 0.25

c.

Slope of altitude of triangle that passes through point Q will be :

m = [tex]\frac{1 - 1}{-6-8}[/tex]

m = 0 / -14

m = 0

The slope in this case doesn't exist.

Therefore the answers will be :

a. The equation of perpendicular bisector of QR is y = [tex]\frac{-5}{3}[/tex] x + 3.

b. The slope of median of triangle passing through point R is 1/4.

c. The slope of the altitude of the triangle that passes through point R doesn't exists.

Make n the subject of this formula:
W= an + Z

Answers

Answer:

n = (W - Z)/a

Step-by-step explanation:

W = an + Z

Rearrange the equation so that the subject is alone, in the format Ax = B

W = an + Z

W - Z = an + Z - Z

W - Z = an

Isolate the subject by dividing or multiple so that the equation is in the format x = C

W - Z = an

(W - Z)/a = an/a

(W - Z)/a = n

Assume you have applied for two jobs a and b. The probability that you get an offer for job a is 0. 25. The probability of being offered job b is 0. 20. The probability of getting at least one of the jobs is 0. 40. What is the probability that you will be offered both jobs? enter your answer as a decimal rounded to two places.

Answers

If you have applied for two jobs a and b and the probability that you get an offer for the job a is 0.25 and the probability of being offered job b is 0.20, then the probability that you will be offered both jobs is 0.05.

Probability is that branch of mathematics that deals with the numerical description of the possibility of an event to occur. The probability of any event is a number between 0 and 1 where 0 represents the impossibility of the event to occur while 1 represents certainty of that event to occur.

As the probability of the job a and job b are independent of each other, the probability that both jobs will be offered can be determined by using the formula;

P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B)

Here, P(A∩B) represents the probability of both the events happening together

As P(A) = 0.25

P(B) = 0.20

P(A∩B) = 0.25 × 0.20

P(A∩B) = 0.05

Hence, the probability that both jobs will be offered is calculated to be 0.05.

What is a rational number ?

If p & q are any two numbers where q is not equal to 0, then the fraction in form p/q is called as rational number.

A number is given which is √22.

√22 = 4.69041576

Let's check which of the statements are correct.

A.

√22 is not rational number as the number has non - terminating decimal value which is 4.69041576 and it doesn't lies between 10 and 12. So , this option is not correct.

B.

This option is also not correct as the value of √22 nearly equals 4.69 is and not greater than 4.691.

C.

The value of √22 is 4.69041576.

If we round off to the nearest hundredth , 9 is at the hundredth place , so the value will be 4.69. This is a correct option.

D.

√22 is not a rational number as the number has non - terminating decimal value which is 4.69041576 but it lies between 4 and 5. So , this option is not correct.

E.

The value of √22 is 4.69041576. We can observe that the decimal number doesn't repeat. So , this is a correct option.

F.

As we know √22 is not a rational number we can't represent it as fraction. This option is not correct.

The commutative property for addition just means the sum is the same no matter what order you add the terms. This property is also true for multiplication of real numbers.

If altering the operands' order has no effect on the outcome, the binary operation is commutative in mathematics. Numerous binary operations depend on it as a fundamental property, and numerous mathematical arguments.

A commutative property in mathematics states that if integer positions are switched around or combined while performing addition or multiplication operations, the result will remain the same.

According to the commutative property, the numbers we use can be moved around or swapped around without changing the solution. For addition and multiplication, the property is true, but not for division or subtraction.

What is the slope of this line?

-1/2

Answers

A slope is known as a rise/run or a rise over run

You can find the rise/run (slope) by finding the y-intercept on the graph (if it is on the graph which in this case it is the y-intercept is 5)

For example: if 3/4 was the slope then 3 would be the rise which means that you would move from the y-intercept upwards 3 points and 4 would be the run and would be move over to the right by 4 points. From the y-intercept you rise 3 points and run 4 points.

This graph is negative as noted by its downward direction meaning the slope will be negative.

To find the slope first find the y-intercept in this case y-intercept = 5.

Next find another solids point that also passes through the line, in this case this is point (1,3)

Move from the y-intercept (5) by -2 points or downwards by 2.

Then move over (run) by one point.

The -2 rises or in this case falls and the 1 goes to the right/runs

Insert these two numbers into the rise/run formula

-2/1 = -2

The answer is -2

Solution of exponential equation is , x =  [tex]800. 7^4[/tex]

What is exponential equation ?

In, mathematics a exponential equation or exponential function is inverse of logarithmic function. That means, we can easily convert the logarithmic function into exponential function and vice versa. The basic form of the logarithm function can be written as  [tex]a^x[/tex] .

where, a = the base of function

           x = main expression

Mathematically, if  [tex]log_aN = x[/tex] is an logarithmic function then, this can be converted to exponential function as  [tex]a^x = N[/tex].

There are many formulas that are given to us for solving several simple and complex problems based on exponential functions and exponential equations.

Some important formulas of exponential :

[tex]a^x . a^y = a^{x+y}[/tex][tex]\frac{a^x}{a^y} = a^{x-y}[/tex][tex]a^x.b^x=(ab)^x[/tex][tex](a^x)^y = a^{xy}[/tex][tex]a^{-x} = \frac{1}{a^x}[/tex]

According to given statement,

[tex]7^{-4} x = 800[/tex]

=> [tex]\frac{1}{7^4} x = 800[/tex]

=> [tex]x = 800 . 7^4[/tex]

Suppose x and y vary inversely, and x=8 when y=-7 .

a. What is the function that models the inverse variation?

Answers

The function that models the inverse variation is y = -56/x.

What exactly is the inverse variation?Inverse variation refers to a relationship between two variables in which the value of one increases while the value of the other decreases.When two quantities, say X and Y, are related in such a way that increasing X causes a decrease in Y and vice versa, this is known as indirect or inverse variation.

So,

In an inverse function: x · y = C where C is the constant.

Then,

-7 · 8  = -56 = C

Since x · y = C then we obtain:

x · y  = -56 ⇒ y = -56/x

Therefore, the function that models the inverse variation is y = -56/x.
