Using a compass and a straightedge, a student constructed a triangle in which XY is one of the sides.

Using A Compass And A Straightedge, A Student Constructed A Triangle In Which XY Is One Of The Sides.

Answers

Answer 1

The length of the compass so that ΔXYZ is isosceles and not equilateral could be;

Option C; between ¹/₂XY and XY

Option E; greater than XY

We are told that;

Student has drawn a line XY

Now the student opened the compass with a set length to draw two intersecting arcs with X and Y as centers.

Now, for these two arcs to meet, the compass has to be opened to a length that is more than half of segment XY.

Secondly, since the triangle is not equilateral, it means the compass cannot be opened to length AB.

The next step would be t open the compass to a length slightly bigger or slightly smaller than AB.

Finally, the options that apply are Options C and E.

A swimming pool already contains
a small amount of water when you start filling it at a
constant rate. The pool contains 45 gallons of water after
5 minutes and 120 gallons after 30 minutes. Find the
average rate of change and use it to write a linear model
that relates the amount of water in the pool to the time.

Answers

Answer:

Rate of change = 3 gallons/minute

Starting volume = 30 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph of the pool's water level would be useful.  The slope of the line would represent the rate of change for filling the pool.  It will also help us determine the amount of water that was in the pool to start.  Although it is tempting to say the rate of fill is 45gallons/5 minutes, or 9 gallons/minute, it is not correct.  The pool already started with an unknown volume of water.  The rate of change after 5 minutes, however, can be used.  The problem states it is being added at a constant rate.  Let's find an equation for a line, in the format of y=mx+b, where m is the slope (rate of change) and b is the y-intercept.

We'll let y represent the volume of water in the pool, and x will be the time in minutes.  The y-intercept will give us the amount of water in the pool at the start (x = 0).

The slope can be determined between the two given points:

(5,45) and (30,120):

Slope = Rise/Run [The change in y divided by the change in x].

Rise = (120 - 45) = 75

Run = (30-5) = 25

Slope = 75/25 or 3

The line, so far, becomes y=3x + b

The slope of 3 has units of gallons/minute.  It is the rate at which the pool is being filled.

We can find b, the starting volume of water, by using one of the two points in the equation and solving for b:

y=3x + b   [I'll use (5,45)]

45 = 3*(5) + b

b = 30 gallons

The pool had 30 gallons to start (at x = 0(minutes))

See the graph of the line, attached.

You are running a concession stand at a basketball game. You are selling hot dogs and sodas. Each hot dog costs $2.25 and each soda costs $1.50. At the end of the night you made a total of $225.75. You sold a total of 126 hot dogs and sodas combined. You must report the number of hot dogs sold and the number of sodas sold. What equations did you use to solve this? How many hot dogs were sold and how many sodas were sold?

Answers

Answer:

49 hot dogs, 77 sodas

Step-by-step explanation:

2.25h + 1.5s = 225.75

h + s = 126, so s = 126 - h. Substitute that into the first equation.

2.25h + 1.5(126 - h) = 225.75

Solve for h

2.25h + 189 - 1.5h = 225.75

0.75h = 36.75

h = 49  So they sold 49 hot dogs

h + s = 126, so 49 + s = 126, s = 77

Answers

The total cost during a school year to attend a given number of daces is a

linear function of the number of dances attended.

The correct responses are;

Part A; The function for the total cost is; c = 50 + 4·nPart B; The total cost for attending 15 dances is; c = $1101. The initial cost is $50 and the rate is $42. The annual fee, the admission price, and the number of dances attended3. The solution are: Part A; c = 50 + 4·n, Part B; c = $110

Reasons:

The given parameter are;

Admission price per person = $4

The annual fees members pay = $50

A. The function that can be used to determine c is a linear function, with a y-intercept (initial value) of 50 and a rate (slope) of 4

The total cost to attend n dances a year, c = 50 + 4·n

B. If a member attends 15 dances a year, we have;

n = 15

Therefore;

The total cost, c = 50 + 4 × 15 = 110

The total cost for 15 dances a year, c = $110

1. As the number of dances attended increase, the total cost increase, and the cost when no dance is attended by a member during the year is $50.

Easy question, Worth 80 points, PLEASE HELP!! What are the angles and the side measurements for this triangle?

Answers

Answer:

the angles are 89.2°, 34.5°, 56.3° and the sides are √26units, √8units, √18units respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between points (2,5) and (-1,2)

Using the formula, √(X2 - X1)² + (Y2 - Y1)²

= √(-1-2)²+(2-5)²

=√(-3)²+(-3)²

=√9+9

=√18 or 3√2

Distance between points (-1,2) and (4,3)

=√[4-(-1)]²+(3-2)²

= √5²+1²

=√25+1

=√26

Distance between points (2,5) and (4,3)

=√(4-2)²+(3-5)²

=√2²+(-2)²

=√4+4

=√8

Using Cosine rule/formula, C²= A²+B²-2abcosc

Let C be √18, A be √26 and B be √8

√18²=√26²+√8² - 2√26.√8cosc

18= 26+8 - 2√208cosc

18= 34 -2√208cosc

2√208cosc= 34-18

Cosc = 16/2√208

Cosc= 0.5546

c= Cos`¹(0.5547)

c= 56.3°

Using sine rule/formula

Sinc/C= Sina/A=Sinb/B

Sin56.3/√18= Sina/√26

Sina= (0.8320 × √26)/ √18

Sina= 0.9999

a= Sin`¹(0.9999)

a= 89.2

56.3+89.2+b= 180°( sum of angles in a triangle)

145.5 + b =180

b=180-145.5

Answers

Answers:

Function? No, it's not a functionDomain:  {15}Range: {0, -2}

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

Explanation:

The domain consists of the set of x coordinates of each point. In this case, we only have one x value listed. The domain is {15}. Use curly braces even if there's only one item. This tells the reader we have a set.

The range is {0,-2} to indicate the y coordinates of the two points.

We don't have a function because x = 15 repeats itself. The input x = 15 leads to multiple outputs at the same time, which isn't allowed if you want a function. You can use the vertical line test as a visual way to see that we don't have a function.

Then, we can determine the length of the line segment [tex]GH[/tex] by the following relationship:

Step-by-step explanation:

when 2 lines cross, the angles on one side of one of these lines are mirrored to the other side.

and crossing a second, parallel line creates exactly the same angles there too, because crossing the second line is like crossing the first line. otherwise the 2 lines are not parallel. the second line is just a shifted version of the first line (and vice versa). all the other attributes are the same.

and all angles around a single point on one side of a line are together 180°.

because of all that,

angle 2 = angle 3 = angle 6 = angle 7 = 76°

Find the value of X and prove the following​

Answers

The value of the variable x can be determined using the circle theorem to

determine the angle formed by x.

The correct responses are;

(1) x = 30°(2) x = 100°(3) x = 60°

Reasons:

(1) From circle theorem, we have;

Equal chords subtends equal arcs and vice versaEqual chords subtend equal angles at the center of a circle

Therefore;

Angle subtended by [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AB}[/tex] at center = Angle subtended by [tex]\widehat {BC}[/tex] at the center;

Angle at the center = 2 × Angle at the circumference

Therefore;

Angle subtended by [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AB}[/tex] at the circumference = Angle subtended by [tex]\mathbf{\widehat {BC}}[/tex] at the circumference

Which gives;

x = 30°

(2) [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AB} = \mathbf{\widehat {CD}}[/tex] given

Angle subtended by arc [tex]\widehat {CD}[/tex] at the center = x

Equal arcs subtend equal angles at the center of a circle.

Therefore;

Angle subtended by arc [tex]\mathbf{\widehat {AB}}[/tex] at the center = x

Angle at center = 2 × angle at circumference

Therefore;

x = 2 × 50° = 100°

x = 100°

(3) [tex]\displaystyle \widehat {AC} = \mathbf{ 3 \times \widehat {AB}}[/tex] given

By definition, we have;

Angle subtended by [tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] at the center = 3 × Angle subtended by [tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex] at the center

According to circle theorem, we have;

Angle at the center = 2 × Angle at the circumference

Let y represent the angle subtended at the circumference by [tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex], we have;

y = 20°

[tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex] = 2·y

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 3 × [tex]\widehat {AB}[/tex] = 3 × 2·y = 6·y

Therefore;

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 6 × 20° = 120°

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 120°

[tex]\widehat {AC}[/tex] = 2·x

Therefore;

2·x = 120°

[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{120^{\circ}}{2} = \mathbf{ 60^{\circ}}[/tex]

x = 60°
