What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (-8, -2) to
(6,2) that partitions the segment into a ratio of 1 to 3?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The coordinates of the point are (-4.5,-1).

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find point T(x,y).

I am going to say that out points are A(-8,-2) and B(6,2)

Since it partitions the segment in a 1:3 ratio, we have that:.

[tex]T - A = \frac{1}{1+3}(B-A)[/tex]

[tex]T - A = \frac{1}{4}(B-A)[/tex]

We apply this to both the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of T.

x-coordinate:

x-coordinate of A: -8

x-coordinate of B: 6

x-coordinate of T: x.

So

[tex]T - A = \frac{1}{4}(B-A)[/tex]

[tex]x - (-8) = \frac{1}{4}(6-(-8))[/tex]

[tex]x + 8 = \frac{14}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{14}{4} - 8[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{14}{4} - \frac{32}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{18}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x = -4.5[/tex]

y-coordinate:

y-coordinate of A: -2

y-coordinate of B: 2

y-coordinate of T: y.

[tex]T - A = \frac{1}{4}(B-A)[/tex]

[tex]y - (-2) = \frac{1}{4}(2-(-2))[/tex]

[tex]y + 2 = 1[/tex]

[tex]y = -1[/tex]

The coordinates of the point are (-4.5,-1).

A napkin is folded into an isosceles triangle, triangle ABC, and placed on a plate, as shown. the napkin has a perimeter of 48 centimeters. trigonometric area formula: Area = 1/2abSin(c). To the nearest square centimeter, how many square centimeters of the plate are covered by the napkin? show your work for full credit.​

Answers

The area of plate which is covered by the napkin is equal to the area of folded napkin.

Before finding the area of folded napkin, we should find the dimension of the napkin.
Find the length of the leg side, the two leg has similar length.
perimeter = 38
l + l + 8 = 38
2l + 8 = 38
2l = 30
l = 15
Each leg is 15 cm long.

Find the area of folded napkin
area = 1/2 × s × s × sin of angle between the sides
area = 1/2 × 15 × 15 × sin 30°
area = 1/2 × 15 × 15 × 1/2
area = 225/4

In ΔXYZ, ∠Y=90° and ∠X=16°. ∠ZWY=42° and XW=260. Find the length of ZY to the nearest integer. (9th grade honors geometry)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \tan(16) = \frac{y}{260 + x} \\ (260 + x) \times \tan(16) = y \\ 74.55 + 0.286x = y \\ y = 0.286x + 74.55[/tex]

[tex] \tan(42) = \frac{y}{x} \\0.9 x = y[/tex]

[tex]0.9x = 0.286x + 74.55 \\ 0.614x = 74.55 \\ x = 121.42[/tex]

[tex]y = 0.9x \\ y = 109.27 = 109[/tex]

The length of ZY is [tex]109.27[/tex]

What is Trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles. The field emerged in the Hellenistic world during the 3rd century BC from applications of geometry to astronomical studies.

What is length?

Length is a measure of distance. In the International System of Quantities, length is a quantity with dimension distance. In most systems of measurement a base unit for length is chosen, from which all other units are derived. In the International System of Units system the base unit for length is the meter.

According to question, In ΔXYZ, ∠Y=90° and ∠X=16°. ∠ZWY=42° and XW=260.

We have to find the  the length of ZY.

Let the length of ZY be [tex]x[/tex] and WY be [tex]y[/tex]

From the given question and figure

[tex]tan16[/tex]°[tex]=\frac{y}{260+x}[/tex]

⇒[tex]tan16[/tex]°×[tex](260+x)=y[/tex]

⇒[tex]y=0.286x+74.55[/tex]

Now,[tex]tan42[/tex]°[tex]=\frac{y}{x}[/tex]

⇒[tex]y=0.9x[/tex]

From both the above equation,

[tex]0.9x=0.286x+74.55[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=121.42[/tex]

[tex]y=0.9x=109.27[/tex]

Hence, we can conclude that the length of ZY is [tex]109.27[/tex]

Question 3.
6x+4y=10
3x+2y=5
No solution, one solution, or infinite solution?

Answers

Answer:

Q1: no solution

Q2: one solution

Q3: infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

Answer: No solution

-------------------

Explanation:

Multiply both sides of the first equation by 3. Doing so leads to

3*(5x+2y) = 3*(-7)

15x+6y = -21

The second equation is 15x+6y = 21

Let's say we let z = 15x+6y

This means the system

[tex]\begin{cases}15x+6y = -21\\15x+6y = 21\end{cases}[/tex]

becomes

[tex]\begin{cases}z = -21\\z = 21\end{cases}[/tex]

but we can't have z be equal to more than one value at a time. We have a contradiction and therefore there are no solutions.

===============================================

Question 2

Answer: One solution

The solution is (x,y) = (5/6)

-------------------

Explanation:

Apply substitution

2x - 4y = 1

2x - 4(2x+1) = 1

2x - 8x - 4 = 1

-6x - 4 = 1

6x = 1+4

6x = 5

x = 5/6

Then use this to find y

y = 2x+1

y = 2(5/6)+1

y = 5/3 + 1

y = 5/3 + 3/3

y = 8/3

The one solution is (x,y) = (5/6)

===============================================

Question 3

Answer: Infinitely many solutions

-------------------

Explanation:

Multiply both sides of the second equation by 2

3x+2y = 5 becomes 2*(3x+2y) = 2*5 which turns into 6x+4y = 10

This is exactly identical to the first equation of the original system given.

So both equations represent the same thing. We have infinitely many intersection points, and infinitely many solutions.

All of these solutions are on the line 3x+2y = 5

A contractor claims the mean value of his compression test is 6500 psi and has astandard deviation of 500 psi. You attempt to check this by taking 8 sample measurements and findyour average is 5900 psi. If your levelof significance is 0.01, would you believe the means are the same

Answers

Answer:

This value of 5675 psi by the contractor is safer than 5487.5 psi as it is of lesser value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following parameters are given from the question above. These information is used in solving this problem.

=> The mean value of his compression test = 6500 psi, the standard deviation = 500 psi, the average of the mean = 5900 psi and the number of sample measurements = 8.

The first thing to do right now is to determine the characteristic strength, this can be calculated as below:

Characteristic strength= average of the mean - (1.65/2) × standard deviation.

Characteristic strength = 5900 - (0.825) × 500 = 5487.5 psi.

The next thing to do is to Determine the target mean strength.

Target mean strength = 5487.5 psi + 1.65 × 500 = 6312.5 psi.

The above is from taking samples from 8 samples.

Now, let's consider the characteristic strength by the contractor.

Characteristics strength = 6500 - 165 × 500 = 5675 psi.

This value of 5675 psi by the contractor is safer than 5487.5 psi as it is of lesser value.
