M is the midpoint of RT. RS=6x+7 and ST=9x-8. find the length of RS and RT

Answers

Answer 1

Applying the definition of a midpoint of a segment, the lengths are:

RT = 74 units

RS = 37 units

What is the Midpoint of a Segment?

The midpoint is defined as the point that bisects a line segment into two equal halves.

If M is the midpoint of RT, therefore:

RS = ST

RS = 6x + 7

ST = 9x - 8

Substitute

6x + 7 = 9x - 8

6x - 9x = -7 - 8

-3x = -15

x = -15/-3

x = 5

RT = RS + ST [segment addition postulate]

RT = 6x + 7 + 9x - 8 [substitution]

RT = 15x - 1

Plug in the value of x

RT = 15(5) - 1

RT = 74 units

RS = 6x + 7 = 6(5) + 7

RS = 37 units.

Thus, applying the definition of a midpoint of a segment, the lengths are:

RT = 74 units

RS = 37 units

What is a translation?

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction either in it’s definition or in it’s domain. Examples are shift left/right or bottom/up, vertical or horizontal stretching or compression, and reflections over the x-axis or the y-axis.

For this problem, the parent and translated functions are given, respectively, by:

f(x) = 1/x.h(x) = -3/x.

The translations are described as follows:

Multiplication by a negative number, hence it was reflected over the x-axis.Multiplication by a number with absolute value of 3, hence the function was vertically stretched by a factor of 3.

a test shows that 10 out of 100 gadgets are defective. in a random sample of two gadgets are chosen the probability that both are defective is

Answers

The probability of selecting both defective gadgets out of 100 gadgets is 1/110, which is calculated using the basic concepts of probability theory.

What is a random experiment?

An experiment that is repeated several times and produces more than one possible outcome is called as the random experiment. It contains a well-defined set of values which constitutes a sample space. Eg: Rolling a die, tossing a coin etc.

Calculation of the probability of selecting both gadgets as defective

The total amount of gadgets = 100

Number of defective gadgets = 10

The probability of selecting a defective gadget is 10 / 100 or 1 / 10

Now, the total number of gadgets and defective gadgets are decreased by 1

So, the probability of selecting another gadget as defective is 9 / 99 or 1 / 11

P(E) = P(when two selected gadgets are defective) = 1 / 10 x 1 / 11

P(E) = 1 / 110

Hence, the probability of selecting both defective gadgets is 1/110.

-8 You burn 6 grams of carbon in plenty of air: C(s) + O₂(g) →→→ CO₂ (g) a What volume of gas will form (in dm³ at rtp)? b What volume of oxygen will be used up?


Answers

    a) Gas has a volume of 12 liters.

    b) 12 liters of oxygen gas will be consumed during the reaction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Moles of Substances:

We measure the quantity of atoms and molecules in moles, which is equal to 6.022 ×10²³, Avogadro's number, because they are too small to be counted or weighed individually. A substance's atomic mass is multiplied by Avogadro's number to get its mass in grams.

Here, Half a mole of carbon is equal to six grams of carbon. since 12 grams make up one mole of carbon. Since carbon dioxide has the chemical formula CO2, when a mole of carbon is fully combusted, it will result in the production of a mole of carbon dioxide gas.

a) Half a mole of gas has a volume of 12 liters because one mole of gas at RTP consumes 24 liters.

b) Due to the fact that each oxygen molecule contains two oxygen atoms and each carbon dioxide molecule contains two oxygen atoms, 12 liters of oxygen gas will be consumed during the reaction.

What is the simplified form of the expression?

Given the expression in the question;

8 + (-7)² - (7 × (-2) + 1 )

Simplify each term, raise -7 to the power 2

8 + (-7)² - (7 × (-2) + 1 )

8 + 49 - (7 × (-2) + 1 )

Multiply 7 by -2

8 + 49 - ( -14 + 1 )

Add -14 and 1

8 + 49 - ( -13)

Remove parenthesis by multiplying -1 by -13

8 + 49 + 13

Now, simplify by adding the number

8 + 49 + 13

Answers

3 Answers: Choice A, Choice B, Choice E

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

Explanation:

We have four copies of x in the original expression. So that accounts for the 4x. In other words, 4x = x+x+x+x. Multiplication is used for repeated addition.

Also, the other terms add to 15+5+15+5 = 20+20 = 40

Therefore, we end up with 4x+40 from choice A.

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

Once we get to 4x+40, we can factor out 2 from it like so

4x+40

2*2x + 2*20

2(2x+20) which is choice B

I used the distributive property to factor. That rule is a(b+c) = ab + ac

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

Choice C is not one of the answers. We can determine this fairly quickly by noting that the expression in choice C talks about a quadratic, but the original expression given to us is linear.

Choice D is a similar story to choice C.

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

Choice E is another answer

This is because we have two copies of (x+15), so that gives 2(x+15)

We also have two copies of (x+5) to get 2(x+5)

Write the slope-intercept equation of a line that passes through the points (-2,5) and (6,-4)

Answers

The slope-intercept equation of a line that passes through the points (-2,5) and (6,-4) is [tex]y=-\frac{9}{8}x+\frac{11}{4}[/tex]

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line is y =  mx + c, where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

For given question we have been given two points (-2,5) and (6,-4)

We need to find the slope-intercept equation of a line that passes through the points (-2,5) and (6,-4).

Using two-point form the equation of the line is,

[tex]\frac{y-y_1}{y_2-y_1}=\frac{x-x_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Let (x1, y1) = (-2,5) and (x2, y2) = (6,-4)

So, the equation of the line is,

[tex]\frac{y-5}{-4-5} =\frac{x-(-2)}{6-(-2)}\\\\ \frac{y-5}{-9} =\frac{x+2}{6+2}\\\\\frac{y-5}{-9} =\frac{x+2}{8}\\\\ 8(y-5)=-9(x+2)\\\\8y-40=-9x-18\\\\8y=-9x-18+40\\\\8y=-9x+22\\\\y=-\frac{9}{8}x+\frac{11}{4}[/tex]

above equation is in the slope-intercept form.

How do I write A number is equal to twice the sum of the same answer and ten write as an equation that matches the verbal sentence

Answers

The number that fits in the given situation is -20.

What exactly are equations?An equation, in its most basic form, is a mathematical statement that shows that multiple mathematical expressions are equal.For example, 3x + 5 = 14 is an equation in which 3x + 5 and 14 are two expressions detached by a 'equal' sign.

Now,

Let us suppose the number is x.

The sum of the same number and ten will be written as x + 10.

As a result, the next condition is twice the sum, which can be written as:

2 × (x + 10)

As a result of the condition, we can write the equation as:

x= 2 × ( x + 10 ) or 2x + 20 = x

Solve for x: x = 2x + 20

2x + 20 = x

Taking 20 off both sides:

2x + 20 - 20 = x - 20 2x = x- 20 2x - x = -20 x  = -20

Therefore, the number that fits in the given situation is -20.
