Identify Two Similar Triangles In The Figure Below, And Complete The Explanation Of Why They Are Similar.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

∠A ≅ ∠A and ∠ABD ≅ ∠ACB, so ΔABD ≅ ΔACB by the AA (Angle - Angle) Triangle Similarity Theorem.

AB = 10

Explanation:

An angle is congruent to itself, so ∠A ≅ ∠A

On the other hand, taking into account the representation of the angles, we can say that: ∠ABD ≅ ∠ACB

Then, the triangles ABD and ACB are congruent by the AA (Angle-Angle) triangle similarity theorem because we have two congruent angles:

∠A ≅ ∠A

∠ABD ≅ ∠ACB

Now, if two triangles are similar their corresponding sides are proportional.

So, we can formulate the following equation:

[tex]\frac{AB}{AC}=\frac{AD}{AB}[/tex]

Then, replacing AC by (21 + 4), AD by 4, and solving for AB, we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{AB}{21+4}=\frac{4}{AB} \\ AB\times AB=4(21+4) \\ AB^2=4(25) \\ AB^2=100 \\ AB=\sqrt[]{100} \\ AB=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the answers are:

∠A ≅ ∠A and ∠ABD ≅ ∠ACB, so ΔABD ≅ ΔACB by the AA (Angle - Angle) Triangle Similarity Theorem.

AB = 10

Giselle works as a carpenter and as
a
blacksmith.
She earns $20 per hour as a carpenter and $25
per hour as a blacksmith. Last week, Giselle
worked both jobs for a total of 30 hours, and
earned a total of $690.
How long did Giselle work as a carpenter
last week, and how long did she work as a
blacksmith?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$20/hr carpenter pay

$25/hr blacksmith pay

Let c = hours working carpentry

Let b = hours working as blacksmith

c + b = 30   {equation 1}

20c + 25b = 690   {equation 2}

In equation 1 solve for one variable in terms of the other.

c = 30-b

Substitute that into equation 2:

20(30-b) + 25b = 690

600 - 20b + 25b = 690

5b = 90

b = 90/5

b = 18 hours working as a blacksmith

c = 30-b = 30-18 = 12 hours as a carpenter

Answer:

she worked as a carpenter for 12 hours

And a blacksmith for 18 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

B=hours as blacksmith

C=hours as carpenter

20c+25b=690

b+c=30


c=30-b

So we substitute this into the first equation

20(30-b)+25b=690

 600-20b+25b=690

       5b=90

       B= 18

18+c=30

C=12

If 6 times a number is decreased by 2, the principal square root of this difference is 3 less than the number. Find the number(s).

Answers

So first we have the expression "six times a number". Let's use x to designate the number, then this expression can be written as 6x. We are being told that this term is decresed by 2 which means that now we have 6x-2. Then we have a certain condition on the principal square root, this would be:

[tex]\sqrt[]{6x-2}[/tex]

We are being told that this square root is equal to "3 less than the number". This last term can be written as x-3. Knowing that x-3 has to be equal to the square root I mentioned before we can build an equation for x:

[tex]\sqrt[]{6x-2}=x-3[/tex]

Know let's find x. First I'm going to get rid of the square root by squaring both sides of the equation:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (\sqrt[]{6x-2})^2=6x-2=(x-3)^2 \\ 6x-2=(x-3)^2=x^2-6x+9 \\ 6x-2=x^2-6x+9 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Know let's move all terms to the right side:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 6x-2=x^2-6x+9 \\ 0=x^2-6x+9-6x+2 \\ 0=x^2-12x+11 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So we have a cuadratic function equalizing 0. This means that we can use the cuadratic formula:

Where a, b and c are the coefficients of the cuadratic equation.In this case a=1, b=-12 and c=11 so we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{-(-12)\pm\sqrt[]{(-12)^2-4\cdot1\cdot11}}{2\cdot1}=\frac{12\pm\sqrt[]{144-44}}{2}=\frac{12\pm\sqrt[]{100}}{2} \\ x=\frac{12\pm10}{2}=6\pm5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So we have two possible values for x, 1 and 11. Then the solution set is {1,11}

Where;

[tex]\begin{gathered} a=3,b=2.9,c=3.1 \\ \cos B=\frac{3^2+3.1^2-2.9^2}{2(3)(3.1)} \\ \cos B=\frac{9+9.61-8.41}{18.6} \\ \cos B=\frac{10.2}{18.6} \\ \cos B=0.5484 \\ B=\cos ^{-1}(0.5484) \\ B=56.74 \\ B=57^o \end{gathered}[/tex]

Also, let's use the Cosine Rule to find the angle A;

A cylindrical vase has a circumference of about 62.8 centimeters and a height of 33 centimeters. To the nearest cubic centimeter, how much water will the vase hold?

Answers

The volume of water that the cylindrical vase can hold is 10362 cm³.

Volume is a measurement of three-dimensional space that is occupied. It is frequently expressed mathematically using imperial or SI-derived units. Volume and the notion of length are connected.

The circumference of a cylindrical vase is 62.8 centimeters.

The height of the cylindrical vase is 33 centimeters.

Let r be the radius of the cylinder.

The circumference of the cylinder is given as:

C = 2πr

62.8 cm = 2 × 3.14 × r

r = 10 cm

The volume of a cylinder is given as:

V = πr²h where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder

Then,

V = 3.14 × ( 10 )² × 33

V = 10362 cm³

Hence, the cylindrical vase can hold 10362 cm³ of water.

D. Grapes are $0.38 per pound and oranges are $0.87 per pound

Answers

C. Grapes are $0.48 per pound and oranges are $0.77 per pound.

The cost of grapes and oranges are 0.48 and 0.77 respectively.

Cost word problem

Evaluating cost of solution is simple: You determine the time and money you need to develop and implement it. You're looking at the resources needed. Cost of problem, however, equals the price of doing nothing. That is, for what I know, an important economic principle known from cost-benefit analyses.

Given that Peaches cost $4 for a 7-pound bag, grapes cost 15% less per pound than peaches, oranges cost 35% more per pound than peaches.

Cost of 7 pounds of peaches = 4

Therefore cost of 1 pound of peaches = 4/7 = 0.57

Cost of one pound of grapes = 0.57 - 15% of 0.57

                                                 = 0.57 - 0.0855

                                                 = 0.4845

                                                 = 0.48

Cost of one pound of oranges = 0.57 + 35% of 0.57

                                                   = 0.57 + 0.1995

                                                   = 0.7695

                                                   = 0.77

Therefore Grapes are $0.48 per pound and oranges are $0.77 per pound.

A polynomial function can be defined as a mathematical expression which comprises intermediates (variables), constants, and whole number exponents with different numerical value, that are typically combined by using mathematical operations such as:

Multiplication (product)AdditionSubtraction

Next, we would determine the amount of coffee imported into the country by using the given polynomial function as follows:

At 1997, we have the following:

x = 0

P(x) = 0.7166x² + 6.627x + 1.344

P(0) = 0.7166(0)² + 6.627(0) + 1.344

P(0) = 1.344 million pounds.

At 2002, we have the following:

x = 4

P(x) = 0.7166x² + 6.627x + 1.344

P(4) = 0.7166(4)² + 6.627(4) + 1.344

P(4) = 0.7166(16) + 26.508 + 1.344

P(4) = 11.4656 + 26.508 + 1.344

P(4) = 39.3176 million pounds.

At 2002, we have the following:

x = 9

P(x) = 0.7166x² + 6.627x + 1.344

P(9) = 0.7166(9)² + 6.627(9) + 1.344

P(9) = 0.7166(81) + 59.643 + 1.344

P(9) = 58.0446 + 26.508 + 1.344

P(9) = 85.8966 million pounds.

Andre and Elena are reading the same book over the 1 summer. Andre says he has read 1/5 of the book. Elena ! says she has read 20 more pages than Andre. If Elena is on page 55, how many pages are in the book? Lin has drawn a diagram to solve this question. Find her error..

Answers

Answer:

The book has 175 pages

Explanation:

Andre says that he has read 1/5 of the book, so the correct diagram should have each rectangle label as a (the number of pages that Andre has read)

because 5 times 1/5 of the book makes the complete book.

On the other side, Elena has read 20 more pages than Andre, so we should have the second rectangle divided and one part should be label as 20 and the sum of a and 20 is equal to 55.

So, the correct diagram is:

Therefore, we can calculate the number of pages that Andre has read as:

a = 55 - 20 = 35

Then, the number of pages of the book is 5 times a, so:

5 x a = 5 x 35 = 175

Therefore, the answer is the book has 175 pages

To find a and b, you have to find the roots, following the steps below.

Step 01: Write the equation in the general quadratic form.

The general quadratic form is ax²+bx+c=0.

Then, add -16x + 65 to both sides of the equation.

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2-16+65=16x-65-16x+65 \\ x^2-16+65=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Knowing that i = √-1:

[tex]\sqrt[]{-4}=\sqrt[]{4}\cdot i[/tex]

Then:

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\frac{+16\pm\sqrt[]{-4}}{2}=\frac{+16\pm\sqrt[]{4}\cdot i}{2} \\ x=\frac{16\pm2\cdot i}{2} \\ x=\frac{16}{2}\pm\frac{2}{2}\cdot i \\ x=8\pm i \end{gathered}[/tex]

The roots are:

8 + 1i

8 - 1i

So, the Answer is:

a = 8

b = 1

Ed has a total of 92 coins in his collection.This is 8 more than three times the number of dimes in his collection. How many dimes does Ed have in his collection ? write and solve and equation

Answers

Let x represent the number of dimes Ed has in its collection.

The total of coins in the collection is 8 more than three times the number of dimes.

The number of coins is 92.

3 times the number of dimes can be symbolized as: 3x

"8 more" is symbolized as +8

So the total number of coins equals:

92=3x+8

From this expression you can determine the number of dimes by solving the equation for x:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 92=3x+8 \\ 92-8=3x \\ 84=3x \\ \frac{84}{3}=\frac{3x}{3} \\ 28=x \end{gathered}[/tex]

x=28 → Ed has 28 dimes in his collection.

Almost 7 over 16 of the total water supplied to a household is wasted because of leaky faucets. Determine the decimal equivalent of 7 over 16 .

Use words to explain if the decimal terminates or repeats.

Answers

Answer:

0.4375

Step-by-step explanation:

Fractions, when the numerator is divided by the denominator, will give the decimal form. Therefore, 7 divided by 16 is 0.4375. It is not a repeating number because the equation doesn't give a repeating number as an answer.

Answer:

0.4375

Step-by-step explanation:

observe

7/16=(((7/2)/2)/2)/2

=((3.5)/2)/2)/2

=(1.75/2)/2

=0.875/2

=0.4375
