Answer:
1. Find the difference between the areas.
Area of the small rectangle: [tex](x+2)(x+7)=x^2+7x+2x+14=x^2+9x+14[/tex]
Area of the big rectangle: [tex](x+9)(x+11)=x^2+11x+9x+99=x^2+20x+99[/tex]
The difference is: [tex]11x+85[/tex]
[tex]( x^2+20x+99)- (x^2+9x+14)=x^2+20x+99-x^2-9x-14=11x+85[/tex]

You can solve this question just by looking at the graph.
a) The height is 4 meters.
[tex]f(d)=h=-2d^2+7d+4[/tex]
To find the height of the bleachers, we should consider the moment before the shoot, when the distance is equal to 0.
[tex]f(0)=h=-2(0)^2+7(0)+4[/tex]
[tex]h=4[/tex]
The height is 4 meters.
b) 9 meters.
For [tex]d=1[/tex]
[tex]f(1)=h=-2(1)^2+7(1)+4[/tex]
[tex]f(1)=h=-2+7+4[/tex]
[tex]h=9[/tex]
b) The ball travels 4 meters.
But to calculate it, it is when [tex]h=0[/tex]
[tex]0=-2d^2+7d+4[/tex]
Using the quadratic formula:
[tex]$d=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$[/tex]
[tex]$d=\frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{7^2-4\left(-2\right)4}}{2\left(-2\right)}$[/tex]
[tex]$d=\frac{-7\pm\sqrt{81}}{-4}$[/tex]
[tex]$d=\frac{-7\pm9}{-4}$[/tex]
It will give us to solutions, once it is a quadratic equation, but we are talking about a positive distance.
[tex]$d=-\frac{1}{2} \text{ or }d=4$[/tex]

2.)9x^2-12x+4=0
Answer:
1. Technically 2, but might be 0 in your teacher's opinion.
2. 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving problem one.
So I don't know if you have learned about imaginary numbers, but if you have, then you would end up with two answers if you plugged in the quadratic formula.
If you haven't learned about imaginary numbers, then I would say your best option would be to write 'No real solution' since there are technically 2 solutions.
Solving problem two.
Turns out this quadratic has a special property and it's actually a square of one equation. You can find out by just factoring the equation.
It's (3x-2)^2. Since it's squared, that means that only 2/3 would work as x in this equation.

Answer:
304(pi) g
Step-by-step explanation:
First we find the volume of the hollow ball. Then we find the mass using the volume and density.
Let R = exterior radius = 3 cm
Let r = interior radius = 2 cm
volume = exterior volume - interior volume
volume = (4/3)(pi)R^3 - (4/3)(pi)r^3
volume = (4/3)(pi)(R^3 - r^3)
volume = (4/3)(pi)(3^3 - 2^3) cm^3
volume = (4/3)(pi)(27 - 8) cm^3
volume = (76/3)pi cm^3
Now we use the density and the volume to find the mass.
density = mass/volume
mass = density * volume
mass = 12 g/cm^3 * (76/3)pi cm^3
mass = 304(pi) g
Answer: 304(pi) g

Answer:
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{y}[/tex]
This can be expressed in 2 parts as
[tex]\frac{x}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
3x = 10 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex]
and
[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{y}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )
2y = 15 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = [tex]\frac{15}{2}[/tex]
Thus
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{\frac{10}{3} }{\frac{15}{2} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{15}[/tex] ( cancel 10 and 15 by 5 )
[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]
Answer:
= 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC is rotated about the origin by 270° to form the triangle A′B′C′, then translated upward 10 units to form triangle A″B″C″. Which of the following statements is true for ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″? A)There isn't enough information to identify whether ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″ are congruent or similar. B)ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″ are neither similar nor congruent. C)ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″ are similar triangles. D)ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″ are congruent triangles.
Answer:
The correct answer is option:
D) ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″ are congruent triangles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
ΔABC is first rotated about the origin by 270° to form the triangle A′B′C′.[tex]\triangle A'B'C'[/tex] is then translated upwards 10 units to form [tex]\triangle A''B''C''[/tex]To find: The true statement among the given options.
Solution:
Let the triangle be situated in 1st quadrant.
It is rotated about the origin by [tex]270^\circ[/tex].
Now, it moves towards quadrant 2 if it is rotated clockwise. It is termed as
[tex]\triangle A'B'C'[/tex].
It is given that now it is translated 10 units upwards. i.e. 10 units added to x coordinate of each vertex to form [tex]\triangle A''B''C''[/tex].
Now, we can see that there is no change in the dimensions of the triangle. We are just changing the location of the triangle.
So, all its angles will be equal to each other and all the sides will be equal to each other.
i.e.
[tex]\angle A = \angle A''\\\angle B = \angle B''\\\angle C = \angle C''\\Side\ AB = Side\ A''B''\\Side\ BC = Side\ B''C''\\Side\ AC = Side\ A''C''[/tex]
Hence, the correct option is:
D)ΔABC and ΔA″B″C″ are congruent triangles.
Answer:A-B
Step-by-step explanation:
The biomass B(t) of a fishery is the total mass of the members of the fish population at time t. It is the product of the number of individuals N(t) in the population and the average mass M(t) of a fish at time t. In the case of guppies, breeding occurs continually. Suppose that at time t = 5 weeks the population is 824 guppies and is growing at a rate of 50 guppies per week, while the average mass is 1.3 g and is increasing at a rate of 0.14 g/week. At what rate is the biomass increasing when t = 5? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) B'(5) = g/week
Answer:
The rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is 180.36 g/week
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
t = 5 weeks
Population N(t) = 824 guppies
Growth Rate [tex]\dfrac{dN(t)}{dt}= 50 \ guppies /week[/tex]
average mass M(t) = 1.3 g
increase rate of biomass [tex]\dfrac{dM (t)}{t}[/tex]= 0.14 g/week
Therefore; the rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is:
[tex]\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}= M(t) * \dfrac{dN(t)}{dt}+ N(t)* \dfrac{dM (t)}{t}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}=1.3 * 50+ 824* 0.14[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}=65+115.36[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{dB(t)}{dt}=180.36 \ g/week}[/tex]
The rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is 180.36 g/week
The rate at which the biomass is increasing when t = 5 is 180.36 g/week
Calculation of the rate:Since time = 5 weeks, Population N(t) = 824 guppies, and growth rate = 50 guppies / week, average mass = 1.3g, and the increase rate of biomass is 0.14g/week
So,
[tex]= 1.3\times 50 + 824 \times 0.14[/tex]
= 65 + 115.36
= 180.35 g/weel

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A Shaped Frame of two congruent sides
Required
Determine the angle made with the ground
Given that there are two congruent sides, this implies that the A frame is an isosceles triangle;
Let the two angles made with the ground be represented by x
Angles in a triangle when added equals 180;
Hence;
[tex]x + x + 34 = 180[/tex]
[tex]2x + 34 = 180[/tex]
Subtract 34 from both sides
[tex]2x + 34 - 34 = 180 - 34[/tex]
[tex]2x = 180 - 34[/tex]
[tex]2x = 146[/tex]

Given: AB ∥ DC , m CB =62°, m∠DAB=104° Find: m∠DEA, m∠ADB
Answer:
m∠DEA = 62°
m∠ADB (arc) = 194°
Angle ∠ADB = 21°.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given information are;
[tex]AB\left | \right |DC[/tex], m CB (arc) = 62°, m∠DAB (arc) = 104°
arc∠BCD = 360° - 104° = 256°
m DC (arc) = arc∠BCD - arc CB = 256° - 62° (Sum of angles)
Therefore DC (arc) = 194°
m DA ≅ m CB = 62° (Parallel lines congruent arc theorem. Arc between two parallel lines)
m∠DEA = 1/2×(arc DA + arc CB) = 1/2×(62° + 62°) =62°
m∠DEA = 62°
Arc AB = m∠DAB (arc) - m DA = 104° - 62° = 42°
m∠ADB (arc) = 360 - m∠DAB (arc) - m CB (arc) (Sum of angles around a circle or point)
∴ m∠ADB (arc) = 360 - 104 - 62 = 194°
m∠ADB (arc) = 194°
Angle ADB = subtended by arc AB = ∴1/2×arc AB
Angle ∠ADB = 42/2 = 21°.
Angle = 21°

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello
To find Sn, we need to draw out equations for each a₇ and a₁₉
In an arithmetic progression,
Sn = a + (n-1)d
Where Sn = sum of the A.P
a = first term
d = common difference
a₇ = 32
32 = a + (7-1)d
32 = a + 6d ........equation (i)
a₁₉ = 140
140 = a + (19-1)d
140 = a + 18d .........equation (ii)
Solve equation (i) and (ii) simultaneously
From equation (i)
32 = a + 6d
Make a the subject of formula
a = 32 - 6d .....equation (iii)
Put equation (iii) into equation (ii)
140 = (32 - 6d) + 18d
140 = 32 - 6d + 18d
Collect like terms
140 - 32 = 12d
12d = 108
d = 108 / 12
d = 9
Put d = 9 in equation (i)
32 = a + 6(9)
32 = a + 54
a = 32 - 54
a = -22
When Sn = 511
Sn = a + (n - 1)d
Substitute and solve for n
511 = -22 + (n-1) × 9
511 = -22 + 9n - 9
511 = -31 + 9n
511 + 31 = 9n

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- This question pertains to special right angle triangles.
- This requires the use of special angles like ( 30°, 45°, 60° ) for all three trigonometric ratios that give us exact answers in the form of radicals.
- We will make a table of all three trigonometric ratios for the 3 special angles given above as follows:
30° 45° 60°
sin 1/2 1/√2 √3 / 2
cos √3 / 2 1/√2 1/2
tan 1 /√3 1 √3
- Now take a look at the figure and determine the appropriate trigonometric ratio that could be used to determine the distance ( q ). We are given an opposite angle ( θ = 45° ) and hypotenuse of the right angle triangle ( H = 4√2 mi )
- We see that the sine ratio is the most appropriate which can be written as:
sin ( θ ) = q / H = q / 4√2
sin ( 45° ) = q / 4√2
q = 4√2 * sin ( 45° ) ... Use above table for sin ( 45° )
q = 4√2 * [ 1 / √2 ]

the length of a rectangular plot of land exceeds the width by 7 m if the area pf the plot is 198 m square what is the length
Answer:
28.142m
Step-by-step explanation:
area of rectangle=width x lenght
so; (rotating the formula with what is given)
area of rectangle/width=lenght
197/7=lenght
28.142m =lenght
Answer:
Length is 18 m and width is 11 m
Step-by-step explanation:
So based on the information given length is seven cm more than your width, and since we don’t know the values of these, we can plot this information into a formula that looks like this: (x+7)(x)=198, which is basically how you take the area of the plot of land.
If you multiply your values, you will get a quadratic equation that looks like this x²+7x-198. If you follow the quadratic formula to solve this equation, the positive result you will get for x is 11, this is your width. And since length exceeds by 7, you just add 7 to 11 to find the length, which ends up being 18.
to verify, you can simply multiply these two values

The volume of a cylinder is approximately 72 feet cubed. Which is the best approximation of the volume of a cone with the same base and height as the cylinder? 24 feet cubed 216 feet cubed 24 pi feet cubed 216 pi feet cubed
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
To find the volume of a cylinder, you multiply the base by the height and then divide by three. The volume of a cone is the same as the volume of a cylinder with the same dimensions divided by three.
So, since a cone's volume is 1/3 of that of a cylinder, we just divide 72 by 3!
72/3=24
Therefore, the volume of the cone is 24 feet cubed.

Next time, using a graphing calculator will work! However, making a table for the x and y outputs will also make it easier to graph points.
For example: see attached image of table.
y−4=7(x−6) find the x and y intercepts
f: x 5 – 3x. (a) Find f(–1). (b) Find f –1(x).
Answer:
[tex]f(-1) = 8[/tex]
[tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{5}{3} - \frac{x}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]f(x) = 5 - 3x[/tex]
Required
[tex]f(-1)[/tex] and [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex]
Solving for f(-1)
Substitute -1 for x in [tex]f(x) = 5 - 3x[/tex]
[tex]f(-1) = 5 - 3(-1)[/tex]
[tex]f(-1) = 5 + 3[/tex]
[tex]f(-1) = 8[/tex]
Solving for [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex]
Let y = f(x)
[tex]y = 5 - 3x[/tex]
Interchange the position of x and y
[tex]x = 5 - 3y[/tex]
Make y the subject of formula (add 3y to both sides)
[tex]3y + x = 5 - 3y + 3y[/tex]
[tex]3y + x = 5[/tex]
Subtract x from both sides
[tex]3y + x - x = 5 - x[/tex]
[tex]3y = 5 - x[/tex]
Divide through by 3
[tex]\frac{3y}{3} = \frac{5}{3} - \frac{x}{3}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{5}{3} - \frac{x}{3}[/tex]
Replace y with [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex]
[tex]f^{-1}(x) = \frac{5}{3} - \frac{x}{3}[/tex]
