Segment XZ is bisected by point Y. If XY= 12x, and the measure of XZ= 18x-6, solve for x.​

Answers

Answer 1

let's bear in mind that Y is a bisecting point, so it's really cutting XZ into two equal halves.

[tex]\bf \underset{\textit{\Large 18x-6}}{\boxed{X}\stackrel{12x}{\rule[0.35em]{14em}{0.25pt}} Y\stackrel{12x}{\rule[0.35em]{14em}{0.25pt}}\boxed{Z}} \\\\\\ 12x+12x = 18x-6\implies 24x=18x-6 \\\\\\ 6x=-6\implies x=\cfrac{-6}{6}\implies x=-1[/tex]

Answer 2

If segment XZ is bisected by point Y and XY=12x and XZ=18x-6 then the value of x=-1.

What is bisection?

Bisection means division of a line segment into two equal parts by  other line or line segment.

How to find length of line after bisection?

We know that bisector cuts line into equal parts so 2XY=XZ

2(12x)=18x-6

24x=18x-6

6x=-6

x=-1

Hence the value of x is -1 if  XZ is bisected by point Y.

Michael has never taken a foreign language class, but is doing a story on them for the school newspaper. The school offers French and Spanish. Michael has a list of all 25 kids in the school enrolled in at least one foreign language class. He also knows that 18 kids are in the French class and 21 kids are in the Spanish class. If Michael chooses two kids at random off his list and interviews them, what is the probability that he will be able to write something about both the French and Spanish classes after he is finished with the interviews? Express your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

112/125

Step-by-step explanation:

If we know all 25 are in at least one foreign language class then we can assume that exactly 4 of the 18 kids in French only take French to add up to 25 and this means that the 14 left take both classes. Now we can create three fractions for each case which are 7/25 (Spanish only) 4/25 (French only) and 14/25 (Both) and we can know say that if he goes down the route of getting a Spanish only as his first he needs one of the 18 other students the chances of this happening are 7/25 * 18/25 = 126/625 the same thing is done with the French only and we get 4/25 * 21/25 = 84/625 and then we have the possibility of just getting a student that does both which is 14/25 or 350/625. now we add them all together to get 560/625 which is simplified to 112/125.

One side of a triangle is 2 feet shorter than the second side. The third side is 4 feet shorter than the second side. The perimeter of a triangle is 15 feet. Find the length of each side.

Answers

The length of first side is 5 feet, the length of second side is 7 feet, the length of third side is 3 feet.

What is perimeter?

The perimeter is the sum of measurement of all sides of a triangle. It is done by a ruler.

How to calculate perimeter?

let the second side be x

according to question first side will be (x-2) feet and the third side will be (x-4) feet.

We know that  the perimeter is equal to the sum of all sides of a triangle.

so

x+x-2+x-4=15

3x=6=15

3x=21

x=7

The length of first side=7-2=5 feet

The length of second side=7 feet

The length of third side=3 feet

Hence the sides of the triangle is 5 feet, 7 feet, and 3 feet.

  D.Divide the first equation, −4x + 8y = 16, by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

All you have to do is look at the effect of the proposed action on the constant on the right to tell which answer choices are incorrect.

A: you would get -8 on the right. Neither equation has that.B: you would bet -16 on the right. Neither equation has that.C: you would get 4 on the right. Neither equation has that.D: you would get -2x +4y = 8, matching the first equation of the new system exactly.

Answer:

D.Divide the first equation, −4x + 8y = 16, by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

−4x + 8y = 16

2x + 4y = 8

Take the first equation and divide it by 2

−4x/2 + 8y/2 = 16/2

The parabola opens: y=√x-4 (principal square root) up down right left

Answers

Answer:

right towards positive x axis

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the orientation of the parabolas we can follow following steps.

1. if in the equation x is squared , the parabola opens up. Also if its coefficient is negative it opens down.

2. If y is squared , the parabola opens right , and its coefficient is negative , it opens left

but before that we have to convert our function in standard form of the parabola. Our equation is

[tex]y=\sqrt{x-4}[/tex]

hence we square on both sides

[tex]y^2=x-4[/tex]

which is now into one of the standard form of a parabola. here y is squared and its coefficient is not negative hence it opens towards right.

These tables represent a quadratic function with a vertex at (0, -1). What is the average rate of change for the interval from x = 9 to x = 10?

Answers

Answer:

A. -19

Step-by-step explanation:

There are lots of ways to get there. One of them is to realize that the average rate of change between two adjacent numbers is the negative of their sum. -(9+10) = -19.

__

Another is to extend the table:

6 to 7 : -13

7 to 8 : -15

8 10 9 : -17

9 to 10 : -19

__

Yet another is to write an equation for the function, and compute the average rate of change:

f(x) = -x^2 -1

average rate of change from 9 to 10 = (f(10) -f(9))/(10 -9) = (-101 -(-82))/(10 -9) = -19

Use the Rational Zeros Theorem to write a list of all possible rational zeros of the function. f(x) = 2x3 + 8x2 + 7x - 8

Answers

Answer:

The list is -1,1,-2,2,-4,4,-8,8,-1/2,1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Possible rational zeros are the constant factors/leading coefficient factors

So factors of -8:  -1,1,-2,2,-4,4,-8,8

So factors of 2:  -1,1,-2,2

Now put every number in the first list over every number in the second list:

The possible rational zeros are:

-1/1=-1

1/1=1

-2/1=-2

2/1=2

-4/1=-4

4/1=4

-8/1=-8

8/1=8

-1/2

The list is -1,1,-2,2,-4,4,-8,8,-1/2,1/2

Answer:

±1/2, ±1, ±2, ±4 and ±8

Step-by-step explanation:

The Rational Zeros Theorem is defined as when a polynomial has all coefficients  integer, then any rational zeroes of the polynomial have to be in the form ±p/q, where q is the coefficient of the highest power of the variable and p is declared  as the constant term.

Furthermore, a rational  "zero" is for a polynomial.  when the polynomial is p(x), a "zero" is a value of x when  p(x) = 0

Secondly, we have to know  what a "rational zero" is.  A "rational zero" is a zero that its number is rational.  Some polynomials  have some rational zeros and some irrational zeros, and some only have zeros that are rational numbers.

By applying this theorem,  all  possible factors of the constant term must be considered . In this example they are 1, 2, 4, and 8.  After that Then you consider all possible factors of the coefficient of the highest power of the variable. we take the x³ term, whose coefficient is 2. the  the possible factors of 2 are 1 and 2.

Therefore, the possible list of rational zeroes are given below

 ±1/1 = ±1

±1/2

±2/1 = ±2

±2/2 = ±1

±4/1 = ±4

±4/2 = ±2

±8/1 = ±8

±8/2 = ±4

By removing the duplicates, we arrive at the following,

±1/2, ±1, ±2, ±4 and ±8

The ratio of money in Obi's wallet to Rudy's wallet one day was 5:2. Obi spent ?20 that day. Obi now had ?8 less than Rudy. How much did they have initially altogether?

Answers

Answer:

  Altogether, they had ?28

Step-by-step explanation:

Had Obi spent only ?12, they would have been even. Thus ?12 is the same as 5-2 = 3 "ratio units". So, each "ratio unit" is worth ?12/3 = ?4.

Then Obi started the day with 5·4 = 20, and Obi started the day with 2·4 = 8. Obi ended with 0, which is 8 less than Rudy.

Altogether, they started with 20 + 8 = 28 of whatever a ? is.

Answer:

Money they have  initially altogether = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of money in Obi's wallet to Rudy's wallet one day was 5:2.

Money Obi has = 5 r

Money Rudy has = 2 r

Obi spent 20 that day and bi now had 8 less than Rudy

               5r -20 = 2r - 8

               3r = 12

                 r = 4

Initial money they have

                Obi = 5r = 5 x 4 = 20

                 Rudy = 2 x 4 = 8

Altogether they have 20+8 = 28

Money they have  initially altogether = 28

f'(x)=2x^1-5(1)x^0+0                        

f'(x)=2x-5(1)                                        x^0=1

f'(x)=2x-5

Use just power rule for last one after a rewrite

2) f(x)=10/x

f(x)=10x^(-1) now use power rule

f'(x)=-10x^(-2) =-10/x^2
