The coordinates of quadrilateral PQRS are P(0, 0), Q(a + c, 0), R(2a + c, b), and S(a, b). How can you use coordinate geometry to show that one pair of opposite sides is parallel?

Answers

Answer 1
We will use the formula for the slope:
m = ( y2- y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )
For PQ : m = ( 0 - 0 ) / ( a + c - 0 ) = 0
For RS : m = ( b - b ) / ( a - ( 2a + c )) = 0
Both slopes are m = 0, so PQ and RS are parallel to x - axis and at the same time parallel to each other ( PQ | | RS ). One pair of opposite sides is parallel.
Answer 2

Answer:

 

Apply the Distance Formula to show that opposite sides pq and rs are congruent

Find x 58 degrees and adjacent 4.0

Answers

A special kind of triangle is a right triangle whose definite characteristic is having a 90° angle. It is also special because there are derived trigonometric formulas/identities that can be applied to it. A right triangle has three sides: hypotenuse, adjacent side and opposite side. The hypotenuse is the longest side of the right triangle. You can determine this visually, if not, quantitatively. The other sides are with respect to a given angle.

For the problem, it might have asked for the opposite side or the hypotenuse. We use the cosine function to find the hypotenuse:

cos 58° = adjacent/hypotenuse = 4/hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 7.55 units

Then, we use the tangent function to find the opposite side.

tan 58° = opposite/adjacent = opposite/4
opposite = 6.4 units

A box contains seven green marbles, six blue marbles and eight orange marbles. Without looking, you choose two marbles out of the bag. What is the probability that the first two picked will both be green if you don’t replace the marble after the first pick?

Answers

1/10 .the first one is 7 out of 21 of them and the second one is 6 out of 20 , and 7/20 times 6/20 is 1/10

The probability is 0.1  (or 10%).

It is required to find  the probability.

What is probability?

probability is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of possible outcomes.

Given that:

The favorable count is determined as follows: considering Green marbles. There are 7 of them in the box, so 7 possible picks at the first draw.

Since you don't replace the pick, at the next drawing there are only 6 Green ones. So for each of the 7 possible first picks, there are 6 possible second picks: number of possibilities is 7 by 6 = 42.

The total number of possible drawings, irrespective of color is determined as follows: there are 21 marbles in total at first drawing, and 20 at second. So, for each first pick there are 20 possibilities, i.e., total number is 21 by 20 = 420

The probability is P = 42 / 420 = 1 / 10 = 0.1  (or 10%)

So, the probability is 0.1  (or 10%).

Segments UV and WZ are parallel with line ST intersecting both at points Q and R respectively

According to the given information, segment UV is parallel to segment WZ while angles SQU and VQT are vertical angles. Angle VQT is congruent to angle SQU by the Vertical Angles Theorem. Because angles SQU and WRS are corresponding angles, they are congruent according to the Corresponding Angles Postulate. Finally, angle VQT is congruent to angle WRS by the _____________________.

Answer: Transitive Property of Equality
The Subtraction Property does not apply here, and the Reflexive Property is used to show something is equal to itself (a = a).

Given that ∠VQT is congruent to ∠SQU by the Vertical Angles Theorem and ∠SQU is congruent to ∠WRS by the Corresponding Angles Postulate, ∠VQT is congruent to ∠WRS because of the Transitive Property of Equality.

Find the limit of the function algebraically. limit as x approaches negative nine of quantity x squared minus eighty one divided by quantity x plus nine.

Answers

Let me express the equation clearly:

lim x→-9  (x²-81)/(x+9)

Initially, we solve this by substituting x=-9 to the equation. 

((-9)²-81)/(-9+9) = 0/0

The term 0/0 is undefined. This means that the solution is not see on the number line because it is imaginary. Other undefined terms are N/0 (where N is any number), 0⁰, 0×∞, ∞-∞, 1^∞ and ∞/∞. One way to solve this is by applying L'Hopitals Rule. This can be done by differentiating the numerator and denominator of the fraction independently. Then, you can already substitute the x=-9.

(2x-0)/(1+0) = 2x = 2(-9) = -18

The other easy way is to substitute x=-8.999 to the original equation. Note that the term x→-9 means that x only approaches to -9. Thus, you substitute a number that is very close to -9. Substituting x=-8.999

((-8.999)²-81)/(-8.999+9) = -18

What is the measure of RST?

Answers

Answer:

∠TSR = 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached as we know ∠S = [tex]\frac{mQR+mPT}{2}[/tex] [ By the theorem of angles of the intersecting secants in a circle]

∠S = [tex]\frac{131+43}{2}[/tex]

     = [tex]\frac{174}{2}[/tex]

     = 87°

Now we have to find the measure of ∠RST

Since ∠QSR + ∠TSR = 180° [ supplementary angles]

87° + ∠TSR = 180°

∠TSR = 180 - 87 = 93°

Therefore, m∠TSR = 93° is the answer.

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 3 chars and 2 tables is $20. The total cost to rent 8 chairs and 4 tables is $45. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?

Answers

Equations:
8c + 4t = 45
3c + 2t = 20

Modify for elimination: ( multiply 2nd eq by -2)
8c + 4t = 45
-6c + -4t = -40



Subtract and solve for "c":
2c = 5
c = $2.50 (cost of one chair)

Solve for "t":
3c + 2t = 20
3(2.50) + 2t = 20
7.50 + 2t =20

2t=12.50

T= 12.50/2 =6.25
t = $ 6.25 (cost of one table)

 Table = 6.25 each

Chair = 2.50 each


Check:

3(2.50) + 2(6.25) =

7.50 +12.50 = 20

 

8(2.50) + 4(6.25) =

When $n$ is divided by 10, the remainder is $a$. when $n$ is divided by 13, the remainder is $b$. what is $n$ modulo 130, in terms of $a$ and $b$?

Answers

If

N = a (mod 10)

N = b (mod 13)

gcd(10,13) = 1

then

N = 10 bx + 13 ay (mod 130)

Where

10x + 13y = 1

-> (10x + 13) (mod 2) = 1 (mod 2)

-> y (mod 2) = 1

y = -3, x = 4

-> N = 40b – 39a (mod 130)

 

It is given that  ra + sb should be non-negative:

 

N = 40b – 39a (mod 130)

N = 40b + (130 – 39)a (mod 130)

N = 40b + 91a (mod 130)

 

Therefore, N modulo 130, in terms of a and b is: N = 40b + 91a (mod 130).

Final answer:

To find the value of n modulo 130 in terms of a and b, one must solve two congruences using the Chinese Remainder Theorem. The solution would require computations beyond the scope of this response and would result in n expressed as a linear combination of a and b modulo 130.

Explanation:

To solve for the values of n modulo 130, given that when n is divided by 10, the remainder is a, and when n is divided by 13, the remainder is b, we can express n in the following forms:

n = 10k + a, where k is some integer

n = 13l + b, where l is some integer

Since 10 and 13 are coprime, Chinese Remainder Theorem tells us that there is a unique solution for n modulo 130 that satisfies both of these congruences. To find n in terms of a and b, we must find k and l such that these two equations give the same n for a particular value of n between 0 and 129 inclusive. This can be done through careful calculations or using a method designed for solving simultaneous congruences.

Once the suitable k and l values are found, the value of n modulo 130 can be stated. Since the exact solution requires more context or computational techniques, we can't provide the specific number in this case, but the final answer will be in the form: n ≡ (something involving a and b) (mod 130).

Solve for z: 3z -5 +2z=25 -5z

Answers

To answer this question you will have to combine like terms.

3z-5+2z=25-5z

Combine 3z and 2z first because they have z in common and are on the same side: 3z+2z=5z

Now you have -5+5z=25-5z

Now you will go ahead and distribute since you can't combine anymore on certain sides.

You can add 5 to 25 on the other side: 25+5=30

Then add 5z to 5z on the other side: 5z+5z=10z

So now your equation should look like this: 10z=30

From here you will have to divide both sides by 10: 10/10=1(since it came to 1 it will just stay as z instead of 1z) 30/10=3

So your solution should come to: z=3

Answers

First, arrange your data from least (smallest number) to greatest (biggest number): {132,140, 142, 147, 149, 152, 158, 163, 165, 166, 168, 171, 173, 177, 178, 180, 180, 181, 182}
Second, subtract your greatest number from your smallest number: 182-132 = 50
Therefore, your answer is: 50

Final answer:

The range of the given set of heights is 50 cm, which is determined by subtracting the smallest height (132 cm) from the largest height (182 cm) in the set.

Explanation:

The range of a set of numbers is the difference between the largest and the smallest numbers in the set. To find the range of the given heights in centimeters, you first identify the largest and smallest numbers in the set {140, 166, 132, 165, 152, 168, 181, 158, 173, 171, 180, 182, 163, 177, 180, 142, 147, 149, 178}. The smallest height is 132 cm, and the largest is 182 cm.

Now, subtract the smallest value from the largest value to determine the range:

Range = Largest value – Smallest value

Range = 182 cm – 132 cm

Range = 50 cm

Therefore, the range of the given set of heights is 50 cm.

A baby wriggled so much that weighing him at the clinic was a problem. So the doctor held the baby and stood on a scale. Then the nurse held the baby and stood on the scale. Then the doctor held the nurse who held the baby and stood on the scale. the three results were 78 kg, 69 kg and 142 kg respectively. What was the weight of the baby.
Long question but help me out ( it was 69 kg I mean)

Answers

x = weight of the baby.
y = weight of the doctor.
z = weight of the nurse.

x + y = 78 so y = 78 - x
x + z = 69 so z = 69 - x
x + y + z = 142

substitute y = 78 - x and z = 69 - x into x + y + z = 142

x + y + z = 142
x +78 - x + 69 - x = 142
-x + 147 = 142
-x = - 5
 x = 5

answer

the weight of the baby was 5 kg
Let the weight of the baby be B 
weight of the Nurse be N 
weight of the Doctor be D 

Now if we fit those into equations we have:

1. B+D= 78
2. B+N= 69
3. B+D+N= 142

Now take 1 and 3:

B+D= 78 so substitute 78 in the thrid equation were B+D is
78+N= 142 ( what plus 78 will get you 142)
78+64= 142

The nurse's weight is 64 kg

Now that we have the nurses weight. You take the combined weight of the baby and nurse and subtract 64

The baby weighs 5kg

now take the doctors and babies combine weight and subtract 4

The Doctor weighs 73 kg


ANSWER:

The baby weighs 5kg, the nurse weighs 64, and the doctor weighs 74.
