Find the height of the triangle by applying formulas for the area of a triangle and your knowledge about triangles.

Answers

The correct answer is  8.5 in.

What is Heron's formula in math?Heron's formula, formula credited to Heron of Alexandria for finding the area of a triangle in terms of the lengths of its sides. In symbols, if a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides: Area = Square root of√s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c) where s is half the perimeter, or (a + b + c)/2.

we know that

The formula of area of triangle is equal to

             [tex]A = \frac{1}{2} (b) (h)[/tex]

We have

b = BC = 6 in

h = AD = x in

substitute

[tex]A = \frac{1}{2} (6) (x)[/tex]

[tex]A = 3x^{2} in^{2} ..................(1)[/tex]

Heron's Formula is a method for calculating the area of a triangle when you know the lengths of all three sides.  

Let  a,b,c be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.  

The area is given by:-

[tex]A = \sqrt{p(p-a) (p-b) (p-c)}[/tex]                     where p is half the perimeter

[tex]p = \frac{a +b+ c}{2}[/tex]

a = 9 in , b= 9 in, c = 6 in

[tex]p = \frac{9 + 9 + 6}{2} = 12 in[/tex]

Find the area

[tex]A = \sqrt{12( 12 - 9) (12-9) (12 - 6)}[/tex]

[tex]A = \sqrt{12 (3)(3)(6)}[/tex]

[tex]A = \sqrt{648}[/tex]

[tex]A = 25.46 in^{2}[/tex]

Substitute the value of the area in the equation 1 and solve for x

[tex]A = 3x in^{2}[/tex]

25.46 = 3x

x = 25.46/3

Answers

Answer:

1. a = 32, c = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

a = c+8

a-20 = 3(c-20)

(c+8)-20 = 3c-60

c = 24

a = 24+8

a = 32

2. t = 15, j = 9

t-3 = 2(j-3)

t-3 = 2j-6

t = 2j-3

t + 2 + j + 2 = 28

(2j-3)+ 2 + j + 2 = 28

3j + 1 = 28

3j = 27

j = 9

t-3 = 2(9-3)

t-3 = 2(6)

t-3=12

t = 15

3. b=36, s=31

b = s + 5

b+s = 67

(s+5)+s = 67

2s+5 = 67

2s = 62

s = 31

b = 31+5

b = 36

4. 231

h + t + u = 6

(with h=hundreds digit, t=tens digit, u=units digit)

h = 2u

t = h+u

t = (2u) + u

(2u) + (2u +u) + u = 6

6u = 6

u = 1

h = 2

t = 3

the number is 231

5. 48

u = 2t

the 2-digit number is 10t+u

2(10t+u) = 10u+t+12

2(10t + 2t) = 10(2t) + t + 12

20t + 4t = 20t + t + 12

24t = 21t + 12

3t = 12

t = 4

u = 2*4

u = 8

the number is 48

Answers

The x-intercepts of the function y = 2x^2 -x - 120 are (-7.5, 0) and (8, 0)

How to determine the x-intercept?

The function is given as:

y = 2x^2 - x - 120

Set the function to 0

2x^2 - x - 120 = 0

Factor out 2

2(x^2 - 0.5x - 60) = 0

Divide by 2

x^2 - 0.5x - 60 = 0

Expand the function

x^2 + 7.5x - 8x - 60 = 0

Factorize the function

(x + 7.5)(x - 8) = 0

Split

x + 7.5 = 0 and x - 8 = 0

Solve for x

x = -7.5 and x = 8

Hence, the x-intercepts of the function y = 2x^2 -x - 120 are (-7.5, 0) and (8, 0)

Solve this recurrence relation together with the initial condition given. an = 2an−1 for n ≥ 1, a0 = 3

Answers

The solution of the recurrence relation is [tex]a_n=3.2^n[/tex]

For given question,

We have been given a recurrence relation [tex]a_n = 2a_{n-1}[/tex] for n ≥ 1

and an initial condition [tex]a_0=3[/tex]

Let [tex]a_n[/tex] = m², [tex]a_{n-1}[/tex] = m and [tex]a_{n-2}[/tex] = 1

So from given recurrence relation we get an characteristic equation,

⇒ m² = 2m

⇒ m² - 2m = 0                     .........( Subtract 2m from each side)

⇒ m(m - 2) = 0                     .........(Factorize)

⇒ m = 0    or  m - 2 = 0

⇒ m = 0   or   m = 2

We know that the solution of the recurrence relation is then of the form

[tex]a_n=\alpha_1 {m_1}^n + \alpha_2 {m_2}^n[/tex]  where [tex]m_1,m_2[/tex] are the roots of the characteristic equation.

Let, [tex]m_1[/tex] = 0   and [tex]m_2[/tex] = 2

From above roots,

[tex]\Rightarrow a_n=\alpha_1 {0}^n + \alpha_2 {2}^n\\\\\Rightarrow a_n=0+\alpha_2 {2}^n\\\\\Rightarrow a_n=\alpha_2 {2}^n[/tex]

For n = 0,

[tex]\Rightarrow a_0=\alpha_2 {2}^0\\\\\Rightarrow a_0=\alpha_2 \times 1\\\\\Rightarrow a_0=\alpha_2[/tex]

But  [tex]a_0=3[/tex]

This means [tex]\alpha_2=3[/tex]

so, the solution of the recurrence relation would be [tex]a_n=3.2^n[/tex]

Therefore, the solution of the recurrence relation is [tex]a_n=3.2^n[/tex]

Answer:

A. (-1, 3) (3, 2) (-2, 1)

B. [tex]\sqrt{17}[/tex]   [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]  [tex]\sqrt{26}[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the midpoints is [tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }2} )[/tex].

MIDPOINTS

[tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }2} )[/tex] = [tex](\frac{4-6}2,\frac{4+2 }2} )[/tex] = (-1, 3)

[tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }2} )[/tex] = [tex](\frac{4+2}2,\frac{4+0 }2} )[/tex] = (3, 2)

[tex](\frac{x_{1}+x_{2} }2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2} }2} )[/tex] = [tex](\frac{-6+2}2,\frac{2+0 }2} )[/tex] = (-2, 1)

Next, we will use the distance formula, [tex]\sqrt{(x_{1}-x_{2})^{2} + (y_{1}-y_{2})^{2} }[/tex].

DISTANCE

[tex]\sqrt{(x_{1}-x_{2})^{2} + (y_{1}-y_{2})^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{(-1-3)^{2} + (3-2)^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{17}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{(x_{1}-x_{2})^{2} + (y_{1}-y_{2})^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{(-1+2)^{2} + (3-1)^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{(x_{1}-x_{2})^{2} + (y_{1}-y_{2})^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{(3+2)^{2} + (2-1)^{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{26}[/tex]  

a. To find the coordinates of endpoints we must add two x values and divide by 2 and then add 2 y- values and divide by 2.

(4-6)/2=-1  (4+2)/2=3

Repeat for other sides.

(2-6)/2=-2 (2+0)/2=1

(2+4)/2=3  (4+0)/2=2

Coordinates of midpoints are (-1,3), (-2,1), (3,2)

b. Now we use the distance formula for each midpoint to find the length of the inner- triangle.

sqrt((-1+2)^2 + (3-1)^2)

Sqrt(5)

Repeat.

Sqrt(17)

Sqrt(26)

The lengths of the inner triangle are as follows:

(-1,3), (-2,1) = Sqrt(5)

(-1,3), (3,2) = Sqrt(17)

(-2,1), (3,2) = Sqrt(26)

So there is an exponent identity that states: [tex](x^b)^a = x^{a*b}[/tex] which means this question becomes: [tex](y^2)^3 = y^{2*3} = y^6[/tex].

Just so you completely understand why this works, it might help to express y^2, as what it truly represents: [tex]y^2=y*y[/tex]. So using this definition we can substitute it into the equation so it becomes: [tex](y*y)^3[/tex]. Now let's use the definition of exponents like we just did with the y, to redefine this in terms of multiplication: [tex](y*y)^3 = (y * y) * (y * y) * (y * y)[/tex]. We can just multiply all these out, and we get: [tex]y * y * y * y * y * y =y^6[/tex].

To make it a bit more general when we have the exponent: [tex]x^b[/tex] it can be expressed as: [tex](x*x*x...\text{ b amount of times})[/tex] now when we raise it to the power of a. we get: [tex](x * x * x...\text{ b amount of times})^a[/tex] which can further be rewritten using the definition of an exponent to become the equation: [tex](x*x*x\text... \text{ b amount of times}) * (x * x * x...\text{ b amount of times})...\text{ a amount of times}[/tex] which just simplifies to: [tex]x*x*x*x...\text{ a times b amount of times}[/tex].

(a) x = 6.5 cm (b) x = 10 cm(c) x = 7 cm(d) x = 7.9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an unknown side of a right angled triangle we use a theorum called pythagorus theorum..

Formula :

(Hypotenuse)^2 = (Perpendicular)^2 + (Base)^2

(h)^2 = (p)^2 + (b)^2

therefore,

(a) hypotenuse = x cm, base = √30 cm, perpendicular = √12 cm.

by formula,

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (x)^2 = (√12)^2 + (√30)^2

→ x^2 = 12 + 30

→ x^2 = 42

→ x = √42

→ x = 6.480...

→ x = 6.5 cm. (approx)

___________________________

(b) hypotenuse = √300 cm, base = √200 cm,perpendicular = x cm.

by formula,

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (√300)^2 = (x)^2 + (√200)^2

→ 300 = x^2 + 200

→ x^2 = 300 – 200

→ x^2 = 100

→ x = √100

→ x= 10 cm.

___________________________

(c) hypotenuse = √66 cm, base = √17 cm,perpendicular = x cm.

by formula,

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (√66)^2 = (x)^2 + (√17)^2

→ 66 = x^2 + 17

→ x^2 = 66 – 17

→ x^2 = 49

→ x = √49

→ x = 7 cm.

___________________________

(d) hypotenuse = x cm, base = 5√12 cm,perpendicular = 2√3 cm.

by formula,

→ h^2 = p^2 + b^2

→ (x)^2 = (2√3)^2 + (5√12)^2

→ x^2 = 12 + 50

→ x^2 = 62

→ x = √62

→ x = 7.874...

→ x = 7.9 cm. (approx)

Rewrite the function by completing the square. x2 + 4x = 0 (x + )2 =

Answers

When the completing the square is applied, the rewritten function is (x + 2)^2 = 4

How to complete the square?

The equation is given as:

x^2 + 4x = 0

The above equation is a quadratic equation and the coefficient of x in the above equation is 4.

So, we have:

k = 4

Divide the variable k by 2

k/2 = 4/2

k/2 = 2

Square the above result

(k/2)^2 = 4

Next, we add 4 to both sides of x^2 + 4x = 0

x^2 + 4x + 4 = 4

Expand the equation by expressing 4x as 2x + 2x

This gives

x^2 + 2x + 2x + 4 = 4

Factorize the above equation

x(x + 2) + 2(x + 2) = 4

Factor out x + 2 from the above equation

(x + 2)(x + 2) = 4

Rewrite the equation as a perfect square of (x + 2)

(x + 2)^2 = 4

Hence, the rewritten function after completing the square is (x + 2)^2 = 4

by showing that a triangle cannot be formed when the sum of the lengths of two sides is less than the length of the third side

Answers

Option D. The triangle inequality theorem is verified by by showing that a triangle cannot be formed when the sum of the lengths of two sides is less than the length of the third side.

How to make this proof

From the given picture we can see the length of the sides. These are 7, 4 and 15.

The length of the two sides cannot join due to the fact that they are less than 15.

4 + 7 < 15

11< 15

Hence the answer is D.

An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 5.4 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 24 engines and the mean pressure was 5.7 pounds/square inch with a standard deviation of 1.0. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

The p-value from the hypothesis test is 0.142 i.e., greater than the given significance level of 0.05. So, the null hypothesis is not rejected. The z-score for the given sample is 1.471.

What is the decision rule for the p-value approach to hypothesis testing?

The decision rule based on p-value states,

If p > α (significance level), then the null hypothesis is not rejectedIf p < α (significance level), then the null hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis.

Calculation:

Since it is given that the valve would produce a mean pressure of 5.4 pounds/square inch. I.e., μ = 5.4 p/si

So, Defining the hypothesis:

Null hypothesis H0: μ = 5.4

Alternative hypothesis Ha: μ ≠ 5.4

It is given that,

The valve was tested on 24 engines. I.e., Sample size n = 24

The sample mean X = 5.7

Standard deviation σ = 1.0 and

The significance level = 0.05

Since the population distribution is approximately normal,

the test statistic is calculated as follows:

z = (X - μ)/(σ/[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex])

On substituting the value,

z = (5.7 - 5.4)/(1.0/[tex]\sqrt{24}[/tex])

  = (0.3)/0.204

  = 1.471

Fron this z-score, the p-value is calculated as 0.142.

Since, the value of p > 0.05 (significance level), the null hypothesis is not rejected.

Answer:

x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem: a^2+b^2=c^2

1. a = 20, b = x, c = 25

2. 20^2+b^2= 25^2

3. Expand: 400+b^2= 625

4. Subtract + Simplify: b^2= 625-400

5. Fully Solve: b^2 = 225 -> Square root of b^2 = Square root of 225

6. Last Step: Simplify: b = 15.
