Answer:

angle 1 is 105degrees and angle 2 is 75degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle below angle 2, presumably angle 6, is also 75 degrees since line c and line d are parallel. If angle 2 is 75 degrees then we know that angle 1 is 105 degrees since both angles equal a straight line and a straight line has 180 degrees.

Answers

(a) If [tex]\alpha[/tex] and [tex]\beta[/tex] are roots of [tex]f(x)[/tex], then we can factorize [tex]f[/tex] as

[tex]f(x) = x^2 + (k - 6) x + 9 = (x - \alpha) (x - \beta)[/tex]

Expand the right side and match up coefficients:

[tex]x^2 + (k-6) x + 9 = x^2 - (\alpha + \beta) x + \alpha \beta \implies \begin{cases} \alpha + \beta = -(k-6) \\ \alpha \beta = 9 \end{cases}[/tex]

Now, recall that [tex](x+y)^2 = x^2 + 2xy + y^2[/tex]. It follows that

[tex]\boxed{\alpha^2 + \beta^2} = (\alpha + \beta)^2 - 2\alpha\beta = (-(k-6))^2 - 2\times9 = \boxed{k^2 - 12k + 18}[/tex]

and

[tex]\boxed{\alpha^2\beta^2} = 9^2 = \boxed{81}[/tex]

(b) If [tex]9(\alpha^2+\beta^2) = 2\alpha^2\beta^2[/tex], then

[tex]9 (k^2 - 12k + 18) = 2\times81 \implies 9k^2 - 108k = 0 \implies 9k (k - 12) = 0[/tex]

Since [tex]k\neq0[/tex], it follows that [tex]\boxed{k=12}[/tex].

(c) The simplest quadratic expression with roots [tex]\frac1{\alpha^2}[/tex] and [tex]\frac1{\beta^2}[/tex] is

[tex]\left(x - \dfrac1{\alpha^2}\right) \left(x - \dfrac1{\beta^2}\right)[/tex]

which expands to

[tex]x^2 - \left(\dfrac1{\alpha^2} + \dfrac1{\beta^2}\right) x + \dfrac1{\alpha^2\beta^2}[/tex]

Reusing the identity from (a-i) and the result from part (b), we have

[tex]\left(\dfrac1\alpha + \dfrac1\beta\right)^2 = \dfrac1{\alpha^2} + \dfrac2{\alpha\beta} + \dfrac1{\beta^2} \\\\ \implies \dfrac1{\alpha^2} + \dfrac1{\beta^2} = \left(\dfrac{\alpha + \beta}{\alpha\beta}\right)^2 - \dfrac2{\alpha\beta} = \left(\dfrac{-(k-6)}9\right)^2 - \dfrac29 = \dfrac29[/tex]

We also know from part (a-ii) that [tex]\alpha^2\beta^2=81[/tex].

So, the simplest quadratic that fits the description is

[tex]x^2 - \dfrac29 x + \dfrac1{81}[/tex]

To get one with integer coefficients, we multiply the whole expression by 81 to get [tex]\boxed{81x^2 - 18x + 1}[/tex].

Rick bought some tetra fish and goldfish for his fish tank. He bought twice as many goldfish as he did tetras. Each goldfish costs $1.50, and each tetra fish costs $2.00. He spent $20 on the fish. Which system can be used to represent x, the number of tetra fish, and y, the number of goldfish, he purchased?
x = 2 y. 2 x + 1.5 y = 20
2 x = y. 2 x + 1.5 y = 20
x = y. 2 x + 1.5 y = 20
x + y = 20. 2 x + 1.5 y

Answers

Answer:

  B.  2x = y; 2x +1.5y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The two given relations can be written as two equations, one for the numbers of fish, and one for their cost.

__

number of fish

The number of goldfish (y) is twice the number of tetras (x), so one equation can be ...

  2x = y

cost of fish

The tetras (x) are $2 each, and the goldfish (y) are $1.50 each. Their total cost is the sum of products of the number of fish and the cost of each. That total is given as $20, so the other equation could be ...

  2x +1.5y = 20

Then the appropriate system of equations is ...

2x = y2x +1.5y = 20

_____

Additional comment

The solution can be found by substituting for 2x to get ...

  y +1.5y = 20 . . . . . . substitute for 2x

  y = 20/2.5 = 8 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

  x = y/2 = 4 . . . . . . . find the number of tetras

Rick bought 4 tetras and 8 goldfish.

__

The wording "twice as many goldfish as tetras" easily causes confusion. It is helpful to reword it as "goldfish were twice the number of tetras."

An object is dropped from 39 feet below the tip of the pinnacle atop a ​715-ft tall building. The height of the object after seconds is given by the equation . h=16T^2+676.Find how many seconds pass before the object reaches the ground.

Answers

Answer:

6.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so the equation you gave is -16T^2 + 676 in the comments which is what I'll be using for this problem. The problem is really just asking you to find the zeroes of the equation excluding any negative solutions since that doesn't really represent anything in this context since T is time.

So the first step is to set the equation equal to 0

[tex]0 = -16t^2 + 676[/tex].

Subtract 676 from both equations.

[tex]-676 = -16t^2[/tex]

Divide both sides by -16

[tex]42.25 = t^2[/tex]

Take the square root of both sides

[tex]\pm6.5 = t[/tex]

Ignore the negative and take only the positive solution, since in this context it doesn't make much sense. So after 6.5 seconds the height is 0, meaning it hits the ground after 6.5 seconds.

A cell phone towerbcast a shadow that is 40 feet long . An 10- foot- tall stop sign located near the tower casts a shadow that is 8 feet long. How tall is the cell phone tower?

Answers

Using proportions, considering the relation between the height and the shadow, it is found that the cell phone tower is 50 feet.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

When the shadow is of 8 feet, the height is of 10 feet. What is the height when the shadow is of 40 feet? The rule of three is:

8 feet - 10 feet

40 feet - h feet

Applying cross multiplication:

1 x 1 x 99 x 100 hat is the awnser

Answers

The answer to this equation is 9,900. Why? Well, we can solve this equation in left-to-right format, seeing that there are no brackets, exponents, or parenthesis:

Step One: 1 x 1 = 1. Anything multiplied by one is the same number that was started with.

Step Two: 1 x 99 = 99. Again, anything multiplied by one is the same number that we started with, which in this case was 99.

Step Three: 99 x 100 = 9,900. Because 100 is a power of ten, we could easily find the solution by shifting the digits two places to the left to increase their value. However, if you would like to do it the long way, you could simply write out 100 x 99 and solve it.

Your final answer: 1 x 1 x 99 x 100 = 9,900.

Which equation has x-intercepts located at (-1,0) and (-5,0)?
A. y=(x + 1)(x - 5)
B. y=(x + 1)(x + 5)
C. y=(x-1)(x - 5)
D. y=(x-1)(x + 5)

Answers

Answer:

B. y = (x+1)(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the x-intercepts are (-1,0) and (-5,0), then the solutions (also called zeros and x-intercepts) are

x = -1 and x = -5

This is a "working backwards" kind of problem. If you were solving the equation, right before the final step, x=-1 would have been:

x + 1 = 0

Right before x=-5

would have been,

x + 5 = 0.

These two: x+1 and x+5 are called the linear factors. You multiply them back together to find the equation.

y = (x+1)(x+5)

C. V=1/3s ^3
D. V=3s³
E. V=6s³

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the pyramid with a base area of s² and the heights iss

The formula for calculating the volume of a square based pyramid is expressed as:

Volume = 1/3* Base area* Height

Since it is a square-based pyramid, the base area is calculated as:

Base Area = s ^ 2

If the height of the pyramid is equal to of the length of a side on the base, hence h = s

Substituting the base area and the height into the formula for the volume, this will give;

V = BH / 3

V = (s ^ 2 * s)/3

V = (s ^ 3)/3

V = 1/3 * s ^ 3

Hence the volume of the pyramid with a base area of s ^ 2 and the height s is 1/3 * s ^ 3
