How Would You Solve This Problem? (Worth 10 Points, Pls Help!)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(22,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Select any two points given and find their slope (rise/run)

       (-38, 40) and (-23, 30)

      slope =   [tex]\frac{40-30}{-38-(-23)}[/tex] = - 2/3

2. Use the slope and one of the points to create an equation of the line in the format y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

    y = mx + b ⇒ 40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

3. Solve for b

   40 = -2/3 (-38) + b

   40 = 76/3 + b

   40 - 76/3 = b

   b = 44/3

4. To find the x-intercept, set y = 0, and solve.

   y = -2/3 x + 44/3

   0 = -2/3 x + 44/3

   2/3 x = 44/3

   x = 22

Hope this helped!

this doesn't even make any sense

Step-by-step explanation:

both -5.4 and 5.4 go off the m.f grid

1. •The starting point will be located in quadrant Q
•The finishing point will be located in quadrant S
Explanation: the x and y values determine where the points are located on the graph

2. The starting point is (-5.4, 3) and the checkpoint is (5.4, 3). The difference is they’re both in different quadrants, and one has a negative value, and the other is positive. They are related because they’re all in one race, and the checkpoint will be involved in the race, most likely between the start and finish points, located in quadrant P.

I hope that helps, merry Christmas and happy holidays! :)

The lengths of x and y are shown in the figure below.
Which number line shows the closest approximate values of x and y?

Answers

Answer:

x = 6.40312423743      y=12.8062484748

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, you must use the Pythagorean Therom.

a^2+b^2=c^2

5^2+4^2=c^2

25+16=c^2

41=c^2

Then find the square root of 41 so x = 6.40312423743.

Then to find y you must substitute the value of x in and use the triangle formula: 1/2(b)(h).

1/2(4)(6.40312423743)

y=12.8062484748

The answer is x = 6.40312423743      y=12.8062484748

Write 28 x 32 in associative property

Answers

Answer:

32 * 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Just flip the positions of the two and you have your answer

the associative property states that (in this case) changing the order of the numbers in the equation does not change the product. for example, "a" times "b" is equal to "b" times "a". this means 28 x 32 is equal to 32 x 28. so, 28 x 32 using the associative property is 32 x 28.

A transportation engineer wants to determine the number of vehicles that drive through an intersection on a given day. The following table shows the total number of vehicles that drove through the intersection over a 10-hour period.



The transportation engineer determines that the linear function that best models the data is, y = -16.7333 + 52.7515x where y represents the total number of vehicles that drove through the intersection and x represents the number of hours. The following graph shows the residuals for this function.

Answers

Answer:

510.7817 or 511

explanation:

First you’re going to have to substitute 10 in for x, so

Y= 52.7515(10) -16.7333

Y=527.515-16.7333

Then subtract

Y=510.7817

Answer:

X=4 or X=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • -8 = -8  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -8  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -2 .

     -8    +    1    =    -7  

     -4    +    2    =    -2    That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -4  and  2  

                    x2 - 4x + 2x - 8

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   x • (x-4)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   2 • (x-4)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                   (x+2)  •  (x-4)

            Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

:

 (x + 2) • (x - 4)  = 0  

STEP

Theory - Roots of a product

2.1    A product of several terms equals zero.  

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.  

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately  

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product  

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2      Solve  :    x+2 = 0  

Subtract  2  from both sides of the equation :  

                     x = -2

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.3      Solve  :    x-4 = 0  

Add  4  to both sides of the equation :  

                     x = 4

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving    x2-2x-8  = 0   directly  

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1      Find the Vertex of   y = x2-2x-8

Parabolas have a highest or a lowest point called the Vertex .   Our parabola opens up and accordingly has a lowest point (AKA absolute minimum) .   We know this even before plotting  "y"  because the coefficient of the first term, 1 , is positive (greater than zero).  

Each parabola has a vertical line of symmetry that passes through its vertex. Because of this symmetry, the line of symmetry would, for example, pass through the midpoint of the two  x -intercepts (roots or solutions) of the parabola. That is, if the parabola has indeed two real solutions.  

Parabolas can model many real life situations, such as the height above ground, of an object thrown upward, after some period of time. The vertex of the parabola can provide us with information, such as the maximum height that object, thrown upwards, can reach. For this reason we want to be able to find the coordinates of the vertex.  

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the  x -coordinate of the vertex is given by  -B/(2A) . In our case the  x  coordinate is   1.0000  

Plugging into the parabola formula   1.0000  for  x  we can calculate the  y -coordinate :  

 y = 1.0 * 1.00 * 1.00 - 2.0 * 1.00 - 8.0

or   y = -9.000

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for :  y = x2-2x-8

Axis of Symmetry (dashed)  {x}={ 1.00}  

Vertex at  {x,y} = { 1.00,-9.00}  

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at  {x,y} = {-2.00, 0.00}  

Root 2 at  {x,y} = { 4.00, 0.00}  

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2     Solving   x2-2x-8 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Add  8  to both side of the equation :

  x2-2x = 8

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of  x , which is  2 , divide by two, giving  1 , and finally square it giving  1  

Add  1  to both sides of the equation :

 On the right hand side we have :

  8  +  1    or,  (8/1)+(1/1)  

 The common denominator of the two fractions is  1   Adding  (8/1)+(1/1)  gives  9/1  

 So adding to both sides we finally get :

  x2-2x+1 = 9

Adding  1  has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

  x2-2x+1  =

  (x-1) • (x-1)  =

 (x-1)2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

  x2-2x+1 = 9 and

  x2-2x+1 = (x-1)2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

  (x-1)2 = 9

We'll refer to this Equation as  Eq. #3.2.1  

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

  (x-1)2   is

  (x-1)2/2 =

 (x-1)1 =

  x-1

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to  Eq. #3.2.1  we get:

  x-1 = √ 9

Add  1  to both sides to obtain:

  x = 1 + √ 9

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

  x2 - 2x - 8 = 0

  has two solutions:

 x = 1 + √ 9

  or

 x = 1 - √ 9

Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula

3.3     Solving    x2-2x-8 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula,  x  , the solution for   Ax2+Bx+C  = 0  , where  A, B  and  C  are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

                                     

           - B  ±  √ B2-4AC

 x =   ————————

                     2A

 In our case,  A   =     1

                     B   =    -2

                     C   =   -8

Accordingly,  B2  -  4AC   =

                    4 - (-32) =

                    36

Applying the quadratic formula :

              2 ± √ 36

  x  =    —————

                   2

Can  √ 36 be simplified ?

Yes!   The prime factorization of  36   is

  2•2•3•3  

√ 36   =  √ 2•2•3•3   =2•3•√ 1   =

               ±  6 • √ 1   =

               ±  6

So now we are looking at:

          x  =  ( 2 ± 6) / 2

Two real solutions:

x =(2+√36)/2=1+3= 4.000

or:

x =(2-√36)/2=1-3= -2.000

Answer: X=4 or X= -2
