In the figure below
1) Using the theorem of similar triangles (ΔBXY and ΔBAC),
[tex]\frac{BX}{BA}=\frac{BY}{BC}=\frac{XY}{AC}[/tex]Where
[tex]\begin{gathered} BX=4 \\ BA=5 \\ BY=6 \\ BC\text{ = x} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{4}{5}=\frac{6}{x} \\ \text{cross}-\text{multiply} \\ 4\times x=6\times5 \\ 4x=30 \\ \text{divide both sides by the coefficient of x, which is 4} \\ \text{thus,} \\ \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{30}{4} \\ x=7.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]thus, BC = 7.5
2) BX = 9, BA = 15, BY = 15, YC = y
In the above diagram,
[tex]\begin{gathered} BC=BY+YC \\ \Rightarrow BC=15\text{ + y} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, from the theorem of similar triangles,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{BX}{BA}=\frac{BY}{BC}=\frac{XY}{AC} \\ \frac{9}{15}=\frac{15}{15+y} \end{gathered}[/tex]solving for y, we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{9}{15}=\frac{15}{15+y} \\ \text{cross}-\text{multiply} \\ 9(15+y)=15(15) \\ \text{open brackets} \\ 135+9y=225 \\ \text{collect like terms} \\ 9y\text{ = 225}-135 \\ 9y=90 \\ \text{divide both sides by the coefficient of y, which is 9} \\ \text{thus,} \\ \frac{9y}{9}=\frac{90}{9} \\ \Rightarrow y=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]thus, YC = 10.

The scale factor on a floor plan is 1 in8 ft. What is the actual distance represented by a 2.5 inches on the floor plan
Answers
Given:
Scale factor = 1 inch 8ft
Floor Plan measurement = 2.5 inches
Solution
We should re-write the scale factor in units of inches only.
Recall that:
[tex]1\text{ f}eet\text{ = 12 inches}[/tex]Then, the scale-factor in inch:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Scale factor = 1 + 8 }\times\text{ 12} \\ =\text{ 1 + 96 } \\ =\text{ 97 inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]We can then find the actual distance by multiplying the represented distance (2.5 inches) by the scale factor.
So, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Actual distance = Represented distance }\times\text{ scale factor} \\ =2.5\text{ }\times\text{ 97} \\ =\text{ }242.5\text{ inches} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer: Actual distance = 242.5 inches
The volume of a square-based rectangular cardboard box needs to be at least 1000cm^3. Determine the dimensions that require the minimum amount of material to manufacture all six faces. Assume that there will be no waste material. The Machinery available cannot fabricate material smaller than 2 cm in length.
Answers
We have to find the dimensions of a box with a volume that is at least 1000 cm³.
We have to find the dimensions that require the minimum amount of material.
We can draw the box as:
The volume can be expressed as:
[tex]V=L\cdot W\cdot H\ge1000cm^3[/tex]The material will be the sum of the areas:
[tex]A=2LW+2LH+2WH[/tex]Since the box is square-based, the width and length are equal and we can write:
[tex]L=W[/tex]Then, we can re-write the area as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=2L^2+2LH+2LH \\ A=2L^2+4LH \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we have the area expressed in function of L and H.
We can use the volume equation to express the height H in function of L:
[tex]\begin{gathered} V=1000 \\ L\cdot W\cdot H=1000 \\ L^2\cdot H=1000 \\ H=\frac{1000}{L^2} \end{gathered}[/tex]We replace H in the expression for the area:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=2L^2+4LH \\ A=2L^2+4L\cdot\frac{1000}{L^2} \\ A=2L^2+\frac{4000}{L} \end{gathered}[/tex]We can now optimize the area by differentiating A and then equal the result to 0:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{dA}{dL}=2\frac{d(L^2)}{dL}+4000\cdot\frac{d(L^{-1})}{dL} \\ \frac{dA}{dL}=4L+4000(-1)L^{-2} \\ \frac{dA}{dL}=4L-\frac{4000}{L^2} \end{gathered}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{dA}{dL}=0 \\ 4L-\frac{4000}{L^2}=0 \\ 4L=\frac{4000}{L^2} \\ L\cdot L^2=\frac{4000}{4} \\ L^3=1000 \\ L=\sqrt[3]{1000} \\ L=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]We now can calculate the other dimensions as:
[tex]W=L=10[/tex][tex]H=\frac{1000}{L^2}=\frac{1000}{10^2}=\frac{1000}{100}=10[/tex]Then, the dimensions that minimize the surface area for a fixed volume of 1000 cm³ is the length, width and height of 10 cm, which correspond to a cube (all 3 dimensions are the same).
Answer: the dimensions are length = 10 cm, width = 10 cm and height = 10 cm.

[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2+4=2x+7 \\ x^2-2x+4-7=0 \\ x^2-2x-3=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]Factor completely :

x - 3 = 0
x = 3
x + 1 = 0
x = -1
We have two values of x, x = 3 and -1
Substitute x = 3 and -1 to any of the equation, let's say equation 2 :
For x = 3
y = 2x + 7
y = 2(3) + 7
y = 6 + 7
y = 13
One solution is (3, 13)
For x = -1
y = 2x + 7
y = 2(-1) + 7
y = -2 + 7
y = 5
The other solution is (-1, 5)
The answers are (3, 13) and (-1, 5)

(3x - 5) + (x+1) = 180 [By the Linear Pair Theorem]
Removing the parentheses:
3x - 5 + x + 1 = 180
Grouping like terms:
3x + x + 1 - 5 = 180
Adding like terms:
4x -4 = 180
Adding +4 to both sides:
4x = 180 + 4
Adding numbers:

A notation is a way of communicating through symbols or signs, or it might be a brief written message. A chemist notating AuBr for gold bromide is an illustration of a notation. A quick list of things to accomplish is an illustration of a notation.
Explain about the percent notation?Since one percent (symbolized as 1%) is equal to one hundredth of something, 100 percent stands for everything, and 200 percent refers to twice the amount specified.
A value or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100 is referred to as a percentage in mathematics. If we need to calculate a percentage of a number, we should divide it by its entirety and then multiply it by 100. The proportion therefore refers to a component per hundred. Per 100 is what the word percent means. The sign "%" is used to denote it.
When expressing a fraction as a percentage, we multiply the provided fraction by 100.7/10, which is 70%.

Using pH=-log{H3O+}, what is pH for 3.4 X 10^-4 ?
Answers
The value of the pH for pH=-log{H3O+} is found as 3.47.
What is defined as the pH?The pH of aqueous or some other liquid solutions is a quantitative measure of their acidity or basicity. The concentration of hydrogen ion, which normally ranges between around 1 and 10∧14 gram-equivalents per litre, is converted into a number between 0 and 14. The concentration of hydrogen ion in pure water, which really is neutral (nor acidic and neither alkaline), is 10∧7 gram-equivalents per litre, corresponding to a pH of 7. A solution with such a pH less than 7 is classified as acidic, while one with pH greater than 7 is classified as basic, or alkaline.For the given equation,
pH = - log [H3O+]
and , H3O+ = 3.4 X 10^-4
The, the pH will be estimated as;
pH = - log [ H3O+]
pH = - log [ 3.4 x10 ^-4]
pH = - [log 3.4 + log 10^-4]
pH = - [0.53 + (-4)]
pH = -[-3.47]
pH = 3.47
Thus, the value of the pH is found as 3.47.

Through trigonometry, we calculated that the height of the platform is 18.8 feet.
The director of the marching band is observing the band practice from a platform. 8 feet separate the base of the platform from the pit area. If the pit section's angle of depression is 67 degrees from the band director,
The angle formed by the horizontal line and the item as seen from the horizontal line is known as the angle of depression. When the angles and the separation of an object from the ground are known, it is mostly used to calculate the distance between the two objects.
We have,
So, the Angle of Depression = [tex]\alpha[/tex] = 67
Let x be the height of the platform,
Tan [tex]\alpha = \frac{x}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Tan 67 = \frac{x}{8} \\\\2.35 =\frac{x}{8} \\x = 2.35 *8 = 18.8[/tex]

Hi there. To solve this question, we have to remember some properties about similar triangle and congruency.
Given the triangles ADH and ECK,
We know that
[tex]\angle ADH\cong\angle ECK[/tex]That is, the angle at D is congruent to the angle at C in the respective triangles.
In this case, we can think of the congruency between the triangles in the following diagram:
Notice that ADCB is a parallelogram and the angles given show that the angles at D and at C are congruent, hence the other angles in the parallelogram must be congruent as well.
This means that opposite sides are parallel and have the same measure (length).
The opposite sides are AD and CB and DC and AB.
In this case, we find that only AD and CB are an option to this question, therefore the correct answer.
In fact, AC is the diagonal of the parallelogram and is not parallel to any segment of the figure.
AE isn't a segment drawn and hence not parallel to any other segment.
The correct answer is the option A).
