A group of hikers is progressing steadily along an uphill trail. The graph shows their elevation (or height above sea level), in feet, at each distance from the start of the trail, in miles.
What is the slope of the graph? Show your reasoning.

What does the slope tell us about this situation?


Write an equation that represents the relationship between the hikers' distance from the start of the trail, x, and their elevation, y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows two congruent regular pentagons and part of a regular n-sided polygon A. Two sides of each of the regular pentagons and two side of A meet at the pint P. Calculate the value of n.​

Answers

Answer:

n=10

Step-by-step explanation:

For a regular polygon with n sides, each interior angle, x, is given by

[tex]x=180\frac{n-2}{n}[/tex]

This can be solved for n

[tex]n=\frac{360}{180-x}[/tex]

For the pentagons

x(5)=180(3/5)=108 degrees.

The angles around P sum to 360, so

2(x(5))+x(A)=360

x(A)=360-2(108)=144.

Substitue in the equation for n.

n=360/(180-144)=10

The number of sides in this polygon is 10.

For any polygon, the sum of interior angles is given as,

[tex]\bold{Sum\ of\ interior\ angles= {(n-2)}\times {180^o}}[/tex]

where,

n = number of sides,

We know that for a pentagon, the number of sides is 5.

thus, substituting the values in the sum of interior angle formula we get,

[tex]{Sum\ of\ interior\ angles= {(n-2)}\times {180^o}}[/tex]

[tex]{Sum\ of\ interior\ angles= {5-2}\times{180^o}}\\= 3 \times {180^o} = 540^o[/tex]

therfore, each angle in a regular pentagon,

[tex]\dfrac{Sum\ of\ interior\ angles}{Number\ of\ Sides} = \dfrac{540^o}{5} = 108^o[/tex],

Let's assume that polygon A is having x number of sides.

At point P, the sum of the angles must be 360°.

The sum of the angles at point P

          = interior angle of the first pentagon

          + interior angle of the second pentagon

          + interior angle of the polygon A with x sides

Substituting the values,

360° = 108° + 108° + z

z = 360° - 108° - 108°

z = 144°

Thus, the interior angle of the x sided polygon is z = 144°.

For a regular polygon, all the interior angles are equal,

so, for a polygon with sides x.

the sum of interior angle = measure of interior angle x Number of sides

                                         = [tex]144^o \times x[/tex]

Also, we know

[tex]{Sum\ of\ interior\ angles= {(n-2)}\times {180^o}}[/tex]

Substituting, the values for an x number of side  polygon,

[tex]{Sum\ of\ interior\ angles= {(n-2)}\times {180^o}}\\{144^o \times x = {(x-2)}\times {180^o}}\\144x = 180x - 360\\360 = 180x- 144x\\x = \dfrac{360}{36}\\x = 10[/tex]

Hence, the number of sides in this polygon is 10.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{5}{9(x-4)}+\frac{4}{(x+5)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20}[/tex]

Required

Decompose into partial fraction

Start by factorizing the denominator:

[tex]x^2 + x - 20 =x^2 + 5x -4x- 20[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + x - 20 =x(x + 5)-4(x+5)[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + x - 20 =(x-4)(x+5)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{A}{x-4}+\frac{B}{x+5}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{A(x+5)+B(x-4)}{(x-4)(x+5)}[/tex]

Cancel out the denominator

[tex]x - 20 = A(x+5)+B(x-4)}[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]x - 20 = Ax+5A+Bx-4B[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]x - 20 = Ax+Bx+5A-4B[/tex]

[tex]x - 20 = (A+B)x+5A-4B[/tex]

By comparison;

[tex](A +B)x = x[/tex] ==>[tex]A + B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5A - 4B = 1[/tex]

Make A the subject in [tex]A + B = 1[/tex]

[tex]A = 1 - B[/tex]

Substitute 1 - B for A in [tex]5A - 4B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5(1-B) -4B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5-5B -4B = 1[/tex]

[tex]5-9B = 1[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]-9B = 1 - 5[/tex]

[tex]-9B = - 4[/tex]

[tex]B = \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]A = 1 - B[/tex]

[tex]A = 1 - \frac{4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{9-4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]A = \frac{5}{9}[/tex]

So:

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{A}{x-4}+\frac{B}{x+5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x - 20}{ x^2 + x - 20} = \frac{5}{9(x-4)}+\frac{4}{(x+5)}[/tex]

consider the line y=6/7x-7

find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line and passes through the points (6,3)

find the equation of the line that is parallelto the line and passes through the points (6,3) ​

Answers

Answer:

y = -7/6x + b

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines require the reciprocal of the slope and opposite sign to the original slope. Then, you substitute the x and y coordinates into the equation to find the y-intercept. Done.

y = 6/7x -7     (6,3)

y = -7/6x + b

3 = -7/6(6) + b

3 = -7 + b

7     7

10 = b

y = -7/6x + b

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular to each other, they have opposite slopes.

The first line is y = 6/7x. Its slope is (6/7). A line perpendicular to this one will  have a slope of -7/6.

Plug this value (-7/6) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.

y = -7/6x + b

To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (6, 3). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.

3 = -7/6(6) + b

To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (6)

3 = -42/6 + b

3 = -7 + b

Now, add 7 to both sides to isolate b.

10 = b

Plug this into your standard equation.

y = -7/6x + 10

This equation is perpendicular to your given equation (y = 6/7x -7) and contains point (6, 3)

If two lines are parallel to each other, they have the same slope.

The first line is y = 6/7x - 7. Its slope is (6/7). A line parallel to this one will also have a slope of 6/7.

Plug this value (6/7) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.

y = 6/7x + b

To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (6, 3). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.

3 = 6/7(6) + b

To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (6)

3 = 36/7 + b

Now, subtract 36/7 to both sides to isolate b. To make this easier to visualize, convert 3 to have a denominator of 7.

21/7 - 36/7 = b

-15/7 = b

Plug this into your standard equation.

y = 6/7x - 15/7

This equation is parallel to your given equation (y = 6/7x - 7) and contains point (6, 3)

Hope this helps!

Collect like terms

7x - 5x = -2 + 22

2x = 20

2x/2 = 20/2

x = 10

2. 13x - 6 = 10x + 24 (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Collect like terms

13x - 10x = 6 + 24

3x = 30

3x/3 = 30/3

x = 10

3. (12x + 26)° + 46° = 180° (same side interior angles are supplementary)

12x + 26 + 46 = 180

12x + 72 = 180

12x + 72 - 72 = 180 - 72

12x = 108

12x/12 = 108/12

x = 9

4. (5x + 5)° + 135° = 180° (same side interior angles are supplementary)

5x + 5 + 135 = 180

5x + 140 = 180

5x + 140 - 140 = 180 - 140

5x = 40

5x/5 = 40/5

x = 8

Answers

Answer:

The option of 6 minutes with 8 tickets given more time for the money.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which one gives you more time for your money?

We have to find the time per ticket, which is the number of minutes divided by the number of tickets.

6 minutes: 8 tickets

6/8 = 0.(60/8) = 0.75 minutes per ticket.

8 minutes:12 tickets

8/12 = 2/3 = 0.(20/3) = 0.667 minutes per ticket.

So the option of 6 minutes with 8 tickets given more time for the money.
