Which equation could John solve to find w, the greatest width in centimeters he can use for the mosaic? w(w – 2) = 48 w(w + 2) = 48 2w(w – 2) = 48 2w(w + 2) = 48

Answers

Answer 1
the answer is w(w+2).
Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]w(w+2)=48[/tex] can be used by John.

Step-by-step explanation:

John has 48 square centimeter tiles he wants to use to create a mosaic.

We can say that 48 square cm is the area of the rectangle.

Let the width of the mosaic be = w

So, given is, He wants the mosaic to be rectangular with a length that is 2 centimeters longer than the width.

[tex]l=w+2[/tex]

Now area of rectangle is given as = [tex]length\times width[/tex]

[tex]48=l\times w[/tex]

Substituting l= w+2

[tex]48=(w+2)\times w[/tex] square cm

Hence, the equation John can use to solve and find w, the greatest width in centimeters he can use for the mosaic is :

[tex]w(w+2)=48[/tex]

Question b)

17 minutes ⇒ 1 revolution = 2π
1 minute ⇒ 2π/17

Angle of rotation is 2π/17 per minute

Question c)

The period of the rotation is 2π/17 

The wheel starts rotating from the height of 5 meters from the ground and the maximum height is 125 meter from the ground.
The amplitude is 125 - 5 = 120 ÷ 2 = 60

The midline of the rotation is at 125 - 5= 120 ÷2 = 60 + 5 = 65 (this is the location of the centre of the wheel). This value is a shift of 65 from the zero midlines (which in this case would be the ground)

Question C

The movement of the wheel can be described as starting from 0° then reaching its peak at 180° and come back to its original position as it stops and it makes a complete circular turn 360°.

If we sketch this on a graph, we will obtain a curve of -cos(x)

We need to apply the period, the amplitude and the shift produced by this rotation into the equation [tex]y = -cos(x)[/tex]

The period is [tex] \frac{2 \pi }{7} [/tex] ⇒ [tex]f(t)=-cos( \frac{2 \pi }{7}t) [/tex]
The amplitude of 60 ⇒ [tex]f(t)=-60cos( \frac{2 \pi }{7}t) [/tex]
The shift of the midline by 65 units upwards ⇒ [tex]f(t) = -60cos( \frac{2 \pi }{7}t)+65 [/tex]

The final equation is
[tex]f(t) = -60cos( \frac{2 \pi }{7}t)+65 [/tex]

True or false the center of the circumscribed circle about a triangle is equidistant to the vertices of the inscribed triangle

Answers

The answer is TRUE!!!!!

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider triangle ABC inscribed in the circle with center at point O. Point O is a point of intersection of perpendicular bisectors of sides AC, AB and BC. According to the attached diagram, points E, F and G are midpoints of sides BC, AC and AB, respectively.

Then

EB=EC;FC=FA;GA=GB.

Since segments OE, OF and OG are perpendicular bisectors of sides BC, AC and AB, then

m∠OBE=m∠OCE=90°;m∠OCF=m∠OAF=90°;m∠OBG=m∠OAG=90°.

You get three pairs of congruent triangles:

ΔOBE≅ΔOCE;ΔOCF≅ΔOAF;ΔOBG≅ΔOAG.

This gives you that

[tex]OB=OC=OA.[/tex]

Each of these segments is a radius of the circumscribed circle about a triangle ABC, then the center of the circumscribed circle about a triangle is equidistant to the vertices of the inscribed triangle.

The volume of a pyramid is V=1/3Bh (One-third the area of the base times height). Since your pyramid has a square base, you have to find the area of the base, multiply it by the height, and then divide it by 3.

So, the area of the base is 4x4, which is 16, then you multiply it by the height, 5, and 16x5 is 80, and 80/3 is approximately 26.6

Write an equation for the translation of the function. y = cos x; translated 6 units up

Answers

it's just y= cos(x)+6

Answer:

[tex]y=cos(x)+6[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to write an equation for the translation of the function [tex]y=cos(x)[/tex] to 6 units upwards.

Let us recall transformation rules.

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x+a)=\text{Graph shifted to left by a units}[/tex]

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x-a)=\text{Graph shifted to right by a units}[/tex]

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+a=\text{Graph shifted upwards by a units}[/tex]

[tex]f(x)\rightarrow f(x)-a=\text{Graph shifted downwards by a units}[/tex]

Since we need to shift our given function 6 units upwards, so we will add 6 to our given function outside the parenthesis as:

[tex]y=cos(x)+6[/tex]

Therefore, our required equation would be [tex]y=cos(x)+6[/tex].

the square has a radius of 3 square root 2 what is the apothem?

Answers

Final answer:

The apothem of the square is equal to half the length of a side of the square, which can be calculated by doubling the radius. In this case, the apothem is 3√2.

Explanation:

The apothem of a square is a line segment drawn from the center of the square to any side of the square, perpendicular to that side. The apothem is equal to half the length of a side of the square.

Given that the square has a radius of 3√2, we can determine the length of a side of the square by doubling the radius. So, the length of a side is 2 * 3√2 = 6√2.

Therefore, the apothem of the square is half the length of a side, which is (6√2)/2 = 3√2.

Problem 1) 

The narrowest graph happens when the leading coefficient is furthest from 0. In this case, that happens to be 4 which is the coefficient in choice B. 

See the attached image "figure1" for the graph. The functions are color coded

y = -x^2 is in red

y = 4x^2 is in blue

y = (1/4)x^2 is in green (note: 1/4 = 0.25; so y = (1/4)x^2 is the same as y = 0.25x^2)

y = (1/9)x^2 is in purple (note: 1/9 = 0.11 approximately; so y = (1/9)x^2 is roughly the same as y = 0.11x^2)

As you can see in figure1, the blue graph corresponding to y = 4x^2 is the most narrowest.

Problem 2) 

See figure2 for the graph. The image is also attached along with figure1.

Figure2 shows a parabola that opens upward and the lowest point is at (0,2) which is the vertex. This point is shown in red as point A.

y = x^2+2 is the same as y = 1(x-0)^2 + 2. That second equation is in the form y = a(x-h)^2 + k where a = 1, h = 0, k = 2

So the vertex is (h,k) = (0,2). The fact that 'a' is positive (a = 1) indicates that the parabola opens upward and this implies the vertex is the lowest point.

Therefore the vertex (0,2) is the minimum

The sum of two numbers is 33. Twice the first number minus the second number equals 18. Find both numbers.

Answers

We can call the two numbers x and y. Then, x + y = 33, and 2x - y = 18. We can use substitution to solve this problem:

y = 33 - x 

SO

2x - 33 + x = 18

3x = 51

x = 17

Now, we know x. We can use this to find y:

x + y = 33

17 + y = 33

y = 16

So, the numbers are 16 and 17. 

The both numbers are = 17 and 16

Solving for the unknown numbers

The sum of two numbers = 33

Let the two numbers be X and y.

therefore X + y = 33 ----> equation 1

Twice the first number minus the second number= 18.

That is,

2x - y = 18 -----> equation 2

From equation 1 make X the subject of formula;

X = 33 – y

substitute X into equation 2,

2(33 – y) - y = 18

66 – 2y – y = 18

66 – 3y = 18

66 – 18 = 3y

48 = 3y

y = 48/3

y = 16

Substitute y = 16 into equation 1

Therefore, X +16 = 33

X = 33 –16

X = 17

Therefore, he both numbers are = 17 and 16

If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then it _bisects____ that chord.

What is radius of circle?

In classical geometry, a radius of a circle or sphere is any of the line segments from its center to its perimeter, and in more modern usage, it is also their length. The name comes from the latin radius, meaning ray but also the spoke of a chariot wheel.

What is chord?

A chord of a circle is a straight line segment whose endpoints both lie on a circular arc. The infinite line extension of a chord is a secant line, or just secant. More generally, a chord is a line segment joining two points on any curve, for instance, an ellipse.

According to question, we have to fill in the blank.

The property of the circle is that if a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then it  bisects that chord.

Final answer:

A radius of a circle that is perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord, dividing it into two equal segments.(Option b)

Explanation:

If a radius of a circle is perpendicular to a chord, then it bisects that chord. This statement is supported by a theorem in geometry which states that, in a circle, the radius bisecting an angle at the centre is perpendicular to the chord which subtends the angle and also bisects this chord. Therefore, by drawing a radius from the center of a circle to the midpoint of a chord, you create two equal segments, effectively bisecting the chord.

Thus, a perpendicular radius drawn from the center of a circle to a chord's midpoint ensures that the chord is bisected into two equal segments. This geometric principle facilitates chord division and enhances the understanding of circle properties.

By looking at the slant at which the line is going, you can tell if the line is negative or positive. This line is negative, so that removes two of the choices. By looking at where the line intersects the y-axis determines if its negative or positive. So the answer is D

Answer: The correct option is (D) y = -x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are to select the correct equation that describes the given graph.

We can see that the graph is a straight line passing through the points (0, 2) and (1, 1).

So, the slope of the line will be

[tex]m=\dfrac{2-1}{0-1}=-1.[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line with slope m = -1 and passing through the point (0, 2) is given by

[tex]y-2=m(x-0)\\\\\Rightarrow y-2=-1\times x\\\\\Rightarrow y-2=-x\\\\\Rightarrow y=-x+2.[/tex]

Hence, the equation that describes the graph is  y = -x + 2.

Thus, (D) is the correct option.

The cells of a certain culture of bacteria triple every 2 minutes. If there are 40 cells in the beginning, in how many minutes will there be more than 9500 cells?
A) 4 min
B) 5 min
C) 11 min
D) 10 min

Answers

Answer:             10 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Final answer:

The bacterial culture that triples every 2 minutes will surpass 9500 cells just after 10 minutes. Since we cannot have a fraction of a minute in this context, the answer is 11 minutes (Option C).

Explanation:

The student is asking about exponential growth, specifically in a bacterial culture that triples every 2 minutes. To find out how many minutes it will take for the initial 40 cells to grow to more than 9500, we can use the formula for exponential growth:

N = N0 × 3t/2

Where N is the final number of cells, N0 is the initial number of cells (40 in this case), and t is the time in minutes.

We want N to be greater than 9500, so we solve the inequality:

9500 < 40 × 3t/2

Dividing both sides by 40 gives:

237.5 < 3t/2

Next, we find the smallest t for which the inequality holds by applying logarithms and solving:

t > 2 × (log3(237.5))

Calculating the right side, we get:

t > 10.096

So, the culture will have more than 9500 cells just after 10 minutes. The smallest whole number of minutes greater than 10.096 is 11, hence the answer is: C) 11 min

Identify the number of minutes it will take for the number of cells to exceed 50,000.
A) 53 min
B) 49 min
C) 48 min
D) 54 min

Answers

Since the growth is exponential, therefore I believe the correct form of the equation is:

P = 100 (2)^(t / 6)

Where t / 6 is the exponent of 2

So to find for the amount of time needed to exceed the population of 50,000, all we have to do is to plug in that value in the equation and find for t. Therefore:

P = 100 (2)^(t / 6)

50000 = 100 (2)^(t / 6)

500 = 2^(t / 6)

log 500 = (t / 6) log 2

t / 6 = log 500 / log 2

t = 6 * 8.96578

t = 53.8 mins = 54 mins

The figure shows secant GC and tangent GB intersecting to form an angle. Find x and y If necessary, round to the tenths place.

Answers

Measure of arc DB = 58°. So ∠ C = 58° : 2 = 29°
Let`s look at the triangle: Δ GBC. GB is a tangent.
29° + 90° + y = 180°
y = 180° - 90° - 29° = 61°
Then ∠ B = 30° : 2 = 15°
In a triangle ΔADC :  ∠ A = 180° - ( 29° + 15° ) = 180° - 44° = 136°
x = 180° - 136° = 44°
Answer: x = 44°,  y = 61°

The value of y, calculated using the difference between the intercepted arcs, is 69.5° when rounded to the tenths place.

The figure provided depicts a circle with a secant (line GC) and a tangent (line GB) intersecting at point G, forming an angle. There are several angle measures given in the figure: angle ECA is 30°, angle ADB is 58°, and angle EAB is 161°. The angles x° and y° are what we need to find.

Here's how to find x and y:

1. To find x:

  - The angle formed by a tangent and a chord (GB and BA in this case) is equal to the angle in the alternate segment of the circle. Therefore, x is equal to the angle in the alternate segment, which is angle ADB (58°). So, x = 58°.

2. To find y:

  - The angle formed by a tangent and a secant (GB and GC in this case) from the external point G is equal to the difference between the measure of the intercepted arc (the large arc EAC) and the measure of the adjacent arc (the small arc EC). This can be calculated by the formula [tex]\( y = \frac{1}{2}(\text{large arc} - \text{small arc}) \).[/tex]

  - The large arc EAC is the full circle (360°) minus the small arc EBC (161°), so the measure of arc EAC is 360° - 161° = 199°.

  - The small arc EC is twice the angle ECA (which is an inscribed angle) because the measure of an arc is twice the measure of an inscribed angle that subtends it. So, the measure of arc EC is 2 * 30° = 60°.

  - Now we can calculate y using the formula: [tex]\( y = \frac{1}{2}(199 - 60) \).[/tex]

Let's calculate the exact values for x and y.

The value of x is equal to the angle ADB, which is 58°.

The value of y, calculated using the difference between the intercepted arcs, is 69.5° when rounded to the tenths place.

Therefore, [tex]\( x = 58 \) and \( y = 69.5 \).[/tex]
