B has coordinates (2,-2)
C has coordinates (-2,-4)
D is the midpoint of AB.
E is the midpoint of AC.
Prove that DE is parallel to BC.
You must show each stage of your working.

Answers

The proof of DE is parallel to BC in the given triangle is shown.

What is defined as the parallel line?Parallel lines are defined as two lines that remain the same distance away and never intersect. To be parallel, two lines must be driven in the same plane, which is a perfectly flat surface such as a wall or sheet of paper.

As per the given data in the question;

A, B and C are the vertices of a triangle.

A has coordinates (4, 6)B has coordinates (2,-2)C has coordinates (-2,-4)

Whereas,

D lies at the midpoint of AB.

E lies at  the midpoint of AC.

The mid piont formula is;

Mid point = (x₁ + x₂ / 2, y₁ + y₂ / 2)

The coordinates of D is found by the mid point formula of coordinates.

Put the coordinates of A (4, 6) and B (2,-2).

D = (4 + 2 / 2, 6 - 2 / 2)

D = (3, 2)

The coordinates of E is found by the mid point formula of coordinates.

Put the coordinates of A (4, 6) and C (-2,-4)

E = (4 - 2 / 2, 6 - 4 / 2)

E = (1, 1)

Now, the slope is calculated by;

m of DE = (y₂ -  y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

The slope of E is

m of DE = (1 - 2)/(1 - 3) = 1/3

Slope of BC

M of BC = (-4 + 2)/(-4 - 2)

M of BC = 1/2

As, the slope of both line DE and BC are equal. Thus, both line are parallel to each other.

The factors are (x + 4), (x + 5) & (x - 4) and the solution is x = -4,  = -5 and x = 4

How to factor and list all the solutions of the equation?

The given parameters are

f(x) = x^3 + 5x^2 - 16x - 80

x = -4 is a root

To set up the synthetic division, we start by writing out the coefficient of each term

So, we have

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

Bring down the first coefficient

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

Multiply by -4

So, we have

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

           (-4)

      1

Add

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

      1     1

Multiply by -4

So, we have

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

           (-4)  (-4)

      1     1

Add

So, we have

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

           (-4)  (-4)

      1     1     -20

Multiply by -4

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

           (-4)  (-4)    80

      1     1     -20

Add

So, we have

Multiply by -4

-4 |  1    5    -16    -80

           (-4)  (-4)    80

      1     1     -20    0

This means that,

Quotient = x^2 + x - 20

Remainder = 0

Expand x^2 + x - 20

x^2 + x - 20 =x^2 + 5x - 4x - 20

Factorize

x^2 + x - 20 = (x + 5)(x - 4)

Recall that the initial root is

x = -4

Rewrite as

x + 4 = 0

So, we have the complete factor to be

f(x) = (x + 4)(x + 5)(x - 4)

Set to 0

(x + 4)(x + 5)(x - 4) = 0

Solve for x

x = -4,  = -5 and x = 4

Hence, the factors are (x + 4), (x + 5) & (x - 4) and the solution is x = -4,  = -5 and x = 4

Using logarithmic expansion, we get expansion for the function log₃(2x+1) is f(x) = {1/log (3)} [2x - 2² . x²/2 + 2³ . x³/3 -  2⁴. x⁴/4 + ....]

According to the question, we need to expand  log₃(2x+1) using logarithmic expansion,

Let f(x) =  log₃(2x+1)

Using change base rule →logₐ b = logₓ (b) / logₓ (a), x > 0. We get

⇒ log (2x+1) /log (3)      

= {1/log (3)} [log (1+2x)]         →(1)

Logarithmic expansion: log (1+x) = x - x²/2 + x³/3 - x⁴/4.....∞

Replace '2x' in the place of 'x' in the above logarithmic expansion, we get

log (1+2x) = 2x - (2x)²/2 + (2x)³/3 - (2x)⁴/4.....∞     →(2)

Substitute (2) in equation (1), we get

f(x) = {1/log (3)} [2x - 2² . x²/2 + 2³ . x³/3 -  2⁴. x⁴/4 + ....]

Hence, using logarithmic expansion we get expansion for the function log₃(2x+1) is f(x) = {1/log (3)} [2x - 2² . x²/2 + 2³ . x³/3 -  2⁴. x⁴/4 + ....]

No we can not  expand the given logarithmic expression log₃(2x+1).

The logarithm is exponentiation's opposite function in mathematics. This means that the exponent to which a fixed number, base b, must be raised in order to produce a given number x, is represented by the logarithm of that number.

Based on the logarithm base, the logarithmic functions are broadly divided into two types. There are common and natural logarithms. Common logarithms are based on the number 10, while natural logarithms are based on the base "e." The power to which a number must be raised in order to obtain another number is known as a logarithm (see Section 3 of this Math Review for more about exponents).

It is given that,

The number of balls and bins is same

If so, then there should always be one ball in each container. The likelihood that every ball will land in the first bin is (1/n)^n.

For example -

Let there be three balls and three bins. Put an A, B, and C next to each ball. The bins are marked 1, 2, and 3. Ball A is likely to land in bin 1 with a 1/3 chance. However, there is a 1/3 chance that ball B will land in bin 1, and there is a 1/3 chance that ball C will land in bin 1. As a result, bin 1 should have a value of 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3 = 1. The expected values of bins 2 and 3 follow a similar rationale.

By the same reasoning, bins 2 and 3 should likewise have anticipated values of 1.

How likely is it that all three balls will fall into bin one?

1/3 x 1/3 x 1/3 = 1/27, or in the general situation, (1/n)^n, which equals (1/3)^3.

A stop sign is a regular octagon, formed by cutting triangles off the corners of a square. If a stop sign measures 36 in. from top to bottom, what is the length of each side?

Answers

The length of each side will be 14.8 inches approx.

It's given that an Octagon sign is drawn out of a square by cutting out triangles from its corners and the total length of the stop sign is 36 inches. We know that squares are Right Angled at each side so in the picture mentioned below, we apply Pythagoras' theorem to find an equation for the side of the sign.

                     =>  [tex]s^{2} = x^{2} + x^{2}[/tex]

                     =>  [tex]s^{2} = 2x^{2}[/tex]                  ----> Eq. 1

Also, it is a square. So, the measurement of length from side to side

                     => 2x + s = 36 inch      ----> Eq. 2

By solving Eq.1 we get s = (√2)(x), Putting this value in Eq.2

                    => s = 36 - 2x    =>    (√2)(x) = 36 - 2x

                    => x(2 + √2 ) = 36   =>  x = 36/(2+√2)

Putting this value of x in Eq.1 , s^2 = 2(x^2)

                   => s = √2.(x)       =>  s = √2 (36/(2 + √2)

                   => s = 14.8

Hence, the length of each side of the sign will be 14.81-inch approx.

An equation is a statement that two expressions, which include variables and/or numbers, are equal. In essence, equations are questions, and efforts to systematically find solutions to these questions have been the driving forces behind the creation of mathematics.

It is given that, each pound of apples sells for $2 and each pound of strawberries sells for $3. Aiden made $80 from selling a total of 35 pounds of apples and strawberries.

Suppose the number of pounds of apples and strawberries is x and y respectively.

If the total of 35 pounds of apples and strawberries as a result,

x + y = 35-------(1)

If each pound of apples sells for $2 and each pound of strawberries sells for $3. Aiden made $80 then,

2x + 3y = 80---------(2)

Multiply equation 1 by 2 and subtract from equation 2 as

2x + 3y -2(x+y) = 80 - 2(35)

y = 10

Substitute the value of y we get x = 25

As a result, there are 25 pounds of apples and 10 pounds of strawberries in all.

Thus, the system of equations that could be used to determine the number of pounds of apples sold and the number of pounds of strawberries sold will be x + y = 35 and 2x + 3y = 80.

a sequence is defined by f (n) =-4+2n for n is greater than or equal to 1. which of the following statements is the recursive definition of f?


a. f(1)=-2, f(n)=f(n-1) +2

b. f(1)=-4, f(n)=f(n-1) +2n

c. f(1)=-2, f(n)=f(n-1) + (-4)

d.f(1)=-4, f(n)=f(n-1) +2

EXPLAIN WHY

Answers

The statement that is the recursive definition of f is f(1) = -2 f(n) = f(n - 1) + 2  for n > 2

How to determine which of the following statements is the recursive definition of f?

The function definition is given as

f(n) = -4 +2n for n > 1

Start by calculating f(2), f(3) and f(4)

So, we have

f(2) = -4 +2(2)

f(2) = 0

f(3) = -4 +2(3)

f(3) = 2

f(4) = -4 +2(4)

f(4) = 4

In the above computation, we can see that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 2

So, we have

f(n) = f(n - 1) + 2

Also, we have

f(1) = -4 +2(1)

f(1) = -2

Hence, the statement that is the recursive definition of f is f(1) = -2 f(n) = f(n - 1) + 2  for n > 2

Solve. Check for extraneous solutions. x¹/₂-(x-5)¹/₂=2

Answers

No extraneous solution to the equation:

The equation is:

[tex]x^{1/2}[/tex] - [tex](x- 5)^{1/2}[/tex] = 2

To know whether the equation has an extraneous solution first we need to find the value of x.

[tex]x^{1/2}[/tex] - 2 = [tex](x - 5)^{1/2}[/tex]

[tex]x^{1/2} - 2[/tex] = [tex](x - 5)^{1/2}[/tex]

Now squaring both sides of the equation we have:

[tex](x^{1/2} - 2)^{2}[/tex] = x - 5

x - 4[tex]x^{1/2}[/tex] + 4 = x -5

[tex]x^{1/2}[/tex] = -9/4

x = 81/16

Now we have to put the value of x in the equation.

[tex](81/16)^{1/2}[/tex] - [tex](81/16 - 5)^{1/2}[/tex] =2

9/4 - 1/4 =2

8/4 = 2

2 =2

Therefore we get to know that there is no extraneous solution to the equation.
