Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1 is justified by the Distributive Property.

Step 4 is justified by the Symmetric Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation solved by Nigel expressed as

4(5x−12)−7x=5x.

First, we need to expand the bracket using the distributive property

4(5x−12)−7x=5x.

4(5x)-4(12) -7x = 5x

20x - 48 - 7x = 5x

Hence Step 1 is justified by the Distributive Property.

Next is to collect the like terms;

20x - 7x - 48 = 5x

Take the difference

13x - 48 = 5x

Next is to subtract 13x from both sides according to the symmetric property

13x - 48 - 13x = 5x - 13x

Hence Step 4 is justified by the Symmetric Property

The resulting equation will be

0-48 = -8x

Divide both sides by -8

-48/-8 = -8x/-8

6 = x

Hence the correct justifications are Step 1 is justified by the Distributive Property AND Step 4 is justified by the Symmetric Property

Answer:

17.6 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

I know you are using Windows 10 OS or something because of the cortana thingie and task bar option, and you can do Windows Key + Shift + S to take a screenshot.

This gives much better quality than a third party device and lets us evade the terrible pixel green line rippley thingies that form. Plus it is more efficient and faster.

Circumference formula is Diameter * Pi.

I assume the 5.6 mi. is the diameter since the line segment is going completely through the circle.

Pi is something of the lines of 3.141592653 blah blah blah and goes on forever, but the point is, we take it to be 3.14 when doing circle stuff so we don't die from old age trying to figure out a question of a 1 x 1 circle.

So 5.6 * 3.14 is 17.584 which is your answer.

It says to round to the nearest tenth though, so you round and get

17.6 since the 5 in 17.584 is the tenths place, the 8 is the hundredths place, the 4 is the thousandths place and so on and so forth.

(The "  *  " symbol represents multiplication and is in use all the time when going to higher levels of education.)

An article in Fortune (September 21, 1992) claimed that nearly one-half of all engineers continue academic studies beyond the B.S. degree, ultimately receiving either an M.S. or a Ph.D. degree.

Answer: Slope = c / a + b

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of a slope.

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line.

Slope = Rise / Run = Δy / Δx = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Solve:

STEP ONE: Identify the points

A (0, 0)

C (a + b, c)

STEP TWO: Apply the formula

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Slope = (c - 0) / (a + b - 0)

Slope = c / a + b

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = 16 3/5 cm

Side A = 5 7/10 cm

Side B = 6 3/4 cm

Side C = x cm

Perimeter of a triangle = side A + side B + side C

16 3/5 = 5 7/10 + 6 3/4 + x

83/5 = 57/10 + 27/4 + x

83/5 = (114+135) / 20 + x

83/5 = 249/20 + x

x = 83/5 - 249/20

= (332-249) / 20

= 83/20

= 4 3/20

x = 4 3/20 cm

40% of a right angle.

We know that the right angle given in the form of radian will be as π / 2.

Then the 40% of the right angle will be given as,

⇒ 40% of π/2

⇒ 0.40 × π/2

You go to the doctor and he injects you with 13 milligrams of radioactive dye. After 12 minutes, 4.75 milligrams of dye remain in you system. To leave the doctor's office, you must pass through a radiation detector without sounding the alarm. If the detector will sound will sound the alarm whenever more than 2 milligrams of the dye are in your system, how long will your visit to the doctor take, assuming you were given the dye as soon as you arrived and the amount of dye decayse exponentially?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the model for this situation using the points given. If you are given 13 mg immediately, the coordinate point for that is (0, 13), where the x coordinate is the time in minutes and the y coordinate is the amount of dye in mg.

If after 12 minutes, 4.75 mg remain, the coordinate point for that is (12, 4.75). Just so you know, the time unit always goes in for x, never for y.

Now that we have these coordinates we are going to use them as a system and find the model. Begin with the point (0, 13) in

[tex]A=a(b)^t[/tex] where A is the amount left in the body, a is the initial amount injected, b is the rate at which it decays, and t is the time in minutes. Plug in the first set of coordinates:

[tex]13=a(b)^0[/tex] and since anything raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1, we have

13 = a. Now we can use that and write another equation with the other set of coordinates to solve for b:

[tex]4.75=13(b)^{12}[/tex] and divide both sides by 13 (don't round anything yet) to get

.3653846154 = b¹². Now take the 12th root of both sides (you need a scientific calculator for this) to get that

b = .9195228407  Yikes.

Now for the model, using the fact that a = 13 and b = .9195228407:

[tex]A=13(.9195228407)^t[/tex]  

We are told that the amount that we are allowed to leave with still remaining in our system cannot be more than 2 mg, so we sub in a 2 for A:

[tex]2=13(.9195228407)^t[/tex] and begin by dividing away 13 to get

[tex].1538461538=.9195228407^t[/tex]  Take the natural log of both sides, which allows us to bring the t out front:

ln(.1538461538) = t ln(.9195228407) and finally divide by ln(.9195228407) to get

t = 22.3 minutes

The midpoint of a segment is ( 6, -6) and one endpoint is (13,-1). Find the coordinates of the other endpoint

Answers

So, the formula for finding the midpoint of a segment given the coordinates of its endpoints is:

((x1+ x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2 {Average of the x coordinates, average of the y coordinates}.

For this problem we know the coordinates of the midpoint along with one of the endpoints.

So the x coordinate of the midpoint (9) must equal (12 + x2)/2.

That is: 9 = (12 + x2)/2 Solve for x2. Follow a similar pattern to find the y coordinate of the unknown endpoint.
