2x − 3.5 ≥ 10.5

2x − 3.5 − 3.5 ≥ 10.5 − 3.5

2x ≥ 7

2x ≥ 7(2)

x ≥ 14

- A description of what Amber did wrong and what he should have done instead

Answer 1

Amber did wrong at the second and third step : She completely simplify both sides but she has to minus 3.5 twice on the left side in order to do so. But instead, she just make them gone.

Max has a square piece of cloth. He cuts it in half from one corner to the opposite corner. How many sides does each of the cut pieces have?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a cloth:

____________

|                        |

|                        |

|___________|

and you cut it in half.

There are three sides

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The cut pieces will each have three sides:  two that are equal and one that is the hypotenuse.

If the original square had sides of length s, then the cut pieces would each have two of that length:  s and s; the third side would have length h = √(s² + s²), or h = s√2.

The 9th term of the geometric sequence will be 41,990,400.

What is a geometric sequence?

A series of non-zero integers where every term after the first is obtained by increasing the one before it by a constant, non-zero value known as the scale factor.

Let a₁ be the first term and r be the common ratio. Then the nth term of the geometric sequence is given as,

aₙ = a₁ · (r)ⁿ⁻¹

The sequence is given below.

25, 150, 900, .....

The first term is 25 and the common ratio is calculated as,

r = 150 / 25

r = 6

Then the 9th term of the sequence is given as,

a₉ = 25 · (6)⁹⁻¹

a₉ = 25 · (6)⁸

a₉ = 25 · 1,679,616

a₉ = 41,990,400

The 9th term of the geometric sequence will be 41,990,400.

Answer:

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to find the constant of proportionality (k) which is defined by the equation:

yx = k

[tex](68)(1/17) = k\\k = 4[/tex]

Therefore when y= 16,

[tex]16x = 4\\x= \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

When y varies inversely with x that means mathematically

  [tex]y = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]

 k ⇒ is the proportional constant that we need to find

We know for one, that when y = 68 and x = 1/17, that means

  [tex]68 = \frac{k}{\frac{1}{17} } \\68 = 17k\\k = 4[/tex]

Therefore we get the equation of the relationship between y and x as

  ⇒ [tex]y = \frac{4}{x}[/tex]

So when y = 16, then

 [tex]16 = \frac{4}{x} \\4 = 16x\\x = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Thus the value of x when y = 16 is 1/4 or the third choice.

Two similar geometric solids have a scale factor of 3:4. If the volume of the smaller solid is 54 cubic feet, what is the volume of the larger solid? Round to the nearest tenth as needed.
Thank you for your help!

Answers

Answer:

128 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

given the scale factor of 2 similar solids is a : b , then

ratio of volumes = a³ : b³

here a : b = 3 : 4

then 3³ : b³ = 3³ : 4³ = 27 : 64

let x be volume of larger solid then by proportion

[tex]\frac{27}{54}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{64}{x}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

27x = 3456 ( divide both sides by 27 )

x = 128

PLEASE HELP W PRECALC QUESTION

Answers

Answer: [tex]2tan(theta)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I know this is pre-calculus, but I want to let you know what this is actually used for in real calculus. This is a method of integration called "u-substitution" which tranforms the function of 'x' into a function of 'theta'. If we allow the value of 'x' to equal 2sec(theta), we can plug this into the function to get:

[tex]\sqrt{x^2-4} =\sqrt{(2sec(theta)^2-4} =\sqrt{4sec^2(theta)-4}[/tex]

Factor out a 4 to get:

[tex]\sqrt{4(sec^2(theta)-1)}[/tex]

Take the square root of 4 to get a 2 on the outside of the radical:

[tex]\sqrt{4(sec^2(theta)-1)}=2\sqrt{sec^2(theta)-1}[/tex]

Use the trig identity below to convert the secant to tangent:

[tex]tan^2(theta)+1=sec^2(theta)[/tex]

[tex]tan^2(theta)=sec^2(theta)-1[/tex]

Therefore our expression becomes:

[tex]2\sqrt{sec^2(theta)-1}=2\sqrt{tan^2(theta)}[/tex]

The square root of tangent is simply tangent:

[tex]2\sqrt{tan^2(theta)} =2tan(theta)[/tex]

If f(x) = (x³ + 25), find the inverse of f.

Answers

Answer:

y = ∛x - 25

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the inverse function, swap x and y , and solve the resulting equation for x.

If the initial function is not one-to-one, than there will be more than one inverse.

So, swap the variables: y = x³ + 25 becomes x = y³ + 25

Now solve the equation, x = y³  + 25 for y.

y = ∛x - 25

Answer: C. A cross section parallel to the base of a right rectangular prism is congruent to the base.

Step-by-step explanation: Cross sections that are parallel to the base will give the shape of the base.  That means that when you do a cross section that's parallel to the base, you're making a horizontal line that goes left to right that is the same as the base.  Therefore, C is your answer.

Discriminant = 120

Number of x intercepts = 2

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

Explanation:

The equation is of the form ax^2+bx+c with:

a = -7

b = 8

c = 2

The discriminant is

d = b^2 - 4ac

d = 8^2 - 4(-7)(2)

d = 64 + 56

d = 120

The discriminant is positive, meaning there are 2 different x intercepts.

If d = 0, then we'd have only one x intercept.

If d < 0, then there wouldn't be any x intercepts.

A circle is drawn to represent a pizza with a 12
inch diameter. The circle is cut into eight
congruent pieces. What is the length of the outer
edge of any one piece of this circle?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter/2 = radius

12/2 = radius

radius = 6

The outer edge means you are measuring the circumference of the pizza.

Circumference = 2(pi)(radius)

Circumference = 2(pi)(6)

You are only finding 1/8 of the circumference

Therefore you are multiplying the circumference by 1/8

Length of 1 slice = (1/8)((2)(pi)(6)) = (12/8)(pi) = (3/2)(pi) = (3(pi)) / (2) or 4.71 inches

The length of the outer edge of any one piece of this circle will be 4.71 inches.

What is the arc length of the sector?

Let r is the radius of the sector and θ be the angle subtends by the sector at the center. Then the arc length of the sector of the circle will be

Arc = (θ/360°) 2πr

A circle is drawn to represent a pizza with a 12-inch diameter. The circle is cut into eight congruent pieces. Then the central angle of each sector will be given as,

θ = 360° / 8

θ = 45°

And the radius is given as,

r = 12/2

r = 6 inches

Then the length of the outer edge of any one piece of this circle will be

Arc = (θ/360°) 2πr

Arc = (45/360°) 2π x 6

Arc = 1/4 x 3.14 x 6

Arc = 4.71 inches

The length of the outer edge of any one piece of this circle will be 4.71 inches.
