One of the legs of a right triangle measures 4 cm and its hypotenuse measures 18 cm. Find the measure of the other leg. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

√308 or 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

c^2=a^2+b^2

c^2-a^2=b^2

Substitute

18^2-4^2=b^2

324-16=b^2

b^2=308

b=√308 or b=17.5

Find the term to term rules for the following sequences:

b)
2, 6, 18, 54, 162

Answers

Answer: Please see explanation column for answer

Step-by-step explanation:

According to sequence   2, 6, 18, 54, 162

--we can see that it is a geometric sequence since to go from one term to the next requires us to  multiply by 3 which is called the common ratio which is gotten by dividing the next by the previous.

ie term 2/ term 1= 6/2 = 3

term 3/ term 2= 18/6= 3

term 4/ term 3= 54/28= 3

term 5 / term 4= 162/54=3

term 6 will therefore be 162 x3 = 486

and term 7 = 486 x 3=1,458 and so on

Recall that  nth term of GP is

Tn = ar^n-1

Where a= first term

r= common ratio

n= term

such that to easily find particular term, we  plug in the values and calculate

for example the 10th term of the above sequence

Tn = ar^n-1

= 2 X 3 ^(10-1)

2 X 3^9

T10 =39,366

13cm

Step-by-step explanation:

29x2=58

84-58=26

26/2 is 13.
Therefore shorter side is 13

What are the scale factor and the center of dilation?

Answers

Answer:

Scale factor 2.5, Center of dilation is (-8,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A dilation is a non rigid transformation. We know that a center of a transformation expect translations mean that it dont matter what change we do to the the pre image to get the new image. The center will stay where it was at all times. Looking at the figure, between the pre image and new image the only point that stays is Point K and point K' . so K is the center of the dilation and that at (-8,3).. Since the pre image is smaller than the new image we know the image scale factor is greater than 1 so the scale factor is expanding. To find the scale let look point K and L we need to find how far are they away from each other and which in this case is 4. Now let look at point K' and Point L'. There distances is 10. You can do the same for K and J. K and J distance is 2 units right and 4 units down. K' and J' distance is 5 units right and 10 units down.

Using this let set a proportion of one point from bigger figure to smaller figure. Distance in current image/ Distance in pre image. Let use K and J so it will be 10/4=2.5 so the scale factor is 2.5

1) Has zeros at -2 and 4, both being double roots

2) As x→∞, y→−∞

Answers

-(x+2)^2(x-4)^2

Not that if x= -2 and x=4 they will look like this in an equation: (x+2) and (x-4)
When (x+2) and (x-4) are set equal to zero and you solve for x, x will equal x= -2 and x=4

If they have double roots, they have a multiplicity of 2 (per root) meaning they will bounce off of the x-axis. Multiplicity can be found by using exponents.

The negative in front flips the function over the x-axis and holds true to the given limit.

A tank contains 3000 L of pure water. Brine that contains 15 g of salt per liter of water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 25 L/min. The concentration of salt after t minutes (in grams per liter) is C(t) = 15t 120 + t . As t → [infinity], what does the concentration approach? g/L

Answers

Answer:

15 g/L

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Brine is added to the tank containing 15g/L at a rate of 25 L/min, the rate at which the quantity of salt in the tank increases is 15 g/L × 25 L/min = 375 g/min. So, in t minutes, the mass of salt in the tank, m is 375 g/min × t min = 375t

Also, the volume of the tank increases by 25 L/min, in t minutes, its volume increases by 25 L/min × t min = 25t. So, the new volume, V is 3000 + 25t.

Since we know, concentration C(t) = m/V = 375t/(3000 + 25t)

dividing through by 25, we have

C(t) = 375t/25/(3000/25 + 25t/25)

C(t) = 15t/(120 + t)

To find the limit as t ⇒ ∞, we divide C(t) by t

C(t) = 15t/t/(120/t + 1)

C(t) = 15/(120/t + 1)

putting t = ∞, we have

C(∞) = 15/(120/∞ + 1)

C(∞) = 15/(0 + 1)

C(∞) = 15/1

C(∞) = 15 g/L

So, as t  t → [infinity], the concentration approaches 15 g/L

solve the equation by factoring: 6x-0.2x^2=0
Please ill give brainliest to the correct answer

Answers

Answer:

The solution to the quadratic equation:

[tex]x=0,\:x=30[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

[tex]6x-0.2x^2=0[/tex]

6x - 0.2x · x = 0

Factor out common term -x

-x (0.2x - 6) = 0

Using the zero factor principle

if ab=0, then a=0 or b=0 (or both a=0 and b=0)

[tex]x=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:0.2x-6=0[/tex]

solving

[tex]0.2x-6=0[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 10

[tex]0.2x\cdot \:10-6\cdot \:10=0\cdot \:10[/tex]

Refine

[tex]2x-60=0[/tex]

Add 60 to  both sides

[tex]2x-60+60=0+60[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]2x=60[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{60}{2}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]x=30[/tex]

Thus, the solution to the quadratic equation:

[tex]x=0,\:x=30[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, since they worked 18 hours over 3 days, they worked a total of 6 hours each day. Since Malik worked 2 fewer hours than Tasha, we have that Tasha worked (6+2)/2 = 4 hours each day and Malik worked 2 hours each day.

Jada was using square stickers with a side length of 3/434 inch to decorate the spine of a photo album. The spine is 10 1/21012 inches long. If she laid the stickers side by side without gaps or overlaps, how many stickers did she use to cover the length of the spine?

Answers

Answer: The number of stickers she used to cover the length of the spine = 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of spine = [tex]10\dfrac12[/tex] inches  = [tex]\dfrac{21}{2}[/tex] inches

Length of each sticker = [tex]\dfrac34[/tex] inch

If she laid the stickers side by side without gaps or overlaps, the number of stickers she use to cover the length of the spine = [tex]\text{(Length of spine)}\div (\text{Length of each sticker})[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{21}{2}\div\dfrac{3}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{2}\times\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{7\times2}{1}=14[/tex]

The number of stickers she used to cover the length of the spine = 14.
