Triangle Q R S is cut by line segment V W. Point V is the midpoint of side Q S and point W is the midpoint of side R S. The length of Q R is 3 a + 6, the length of V W is 2 a minus 2, and the length of V S is 2 a.
If V is the midpoint of Line segment Q S and W is the midpoint of Line segment R S, then what is VS?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that triangle QRS and triangle VWS are similar triangles.

Similar triangles are triangles in which the ratio of their corresponding sides are in the same proportion.

V is the midpoint of QS.

VS = 2a, QS = 2 * VS = 2(2a) = 4a

Since both triangles are similar triangles, hence:

\begin{gathered}\frac{VS}{QS}=\frac{VW}{QR}\\\\\frac{2a}{4a} =\frac{2a-2}{3a+6} \\\\\frac{2a-2}{3a+6} =\frac{1}{2} \\\\2(2a-2)=3a+6\\\\4a-4=3a+6\\\\a=10\ units\\\\VS=2a=2(10)=20\ units\end{gathered}

Celeste is planning to buy a new bedroom set. Because sales tax rates can vary from town to town,

two cities at the time of purchase are given in the table.

Answers

Answer:

  $13.67, Valdosta, Tallahassee

Step-by-step explanation:

The total sales tax rate in Valdosta is 4% +3% = 7%.

The total sales tax rate in Tallahassee is 6% +1.5% = 7.5%, which is 0.5% higher than in Valdosta. That percentage makes a difference in the final price of ...

  0.5% × $2734 = 0.005×$2734 = $13.67

Celeste will save $13.67 in sales tax if she makes her purchase in Valdosta rather than Tallahassee .

please help!

Answers

Answer:

b = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−4 = 2(b + 5)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4 = 2(b + 5)

−4 = (2)(b) + (2)(5)(Distribute)

−4 = 2b + 10

Step 2: Flip the equation.

2b + 10 = −4

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

2b + 10 − 10 = −4 − 10

2b = −14

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

[tex]\frac{2b}{2} = \frac{-14}{2}[/tex]

b = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

180-55-55=70

180-70=110

180-110=70

70/2=35

Property: All straight lines from the centre of a circle are the same length, hence the triangles are isoceles.

Answer:  35 degrees

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

Explanation:

Inscribed angle ABC = 55 subtends the minor arc AC which is 110 degrees (use the inscribed angle theorem).

The inscribed angle BDC subtends the minor arc CB, which we'll call x for now.

The two minor arcs (AC and CB) combine to form the arc ACB. Note how this is a semicircle since AB is a diameter. For any semicircle, the arc measure is 180 degrees.

So,

(arc AC) + (arc CB) = arc ACB

110 + x = 180

x = 180-110

x = 70

This cuts in half to 35 which is the inscribed angle BDC, again we're using the inscribed angle theorem here.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4 hours 40 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate relation is ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (3800 km)/(900 km/h) +(400 km)/(900 km/h) = (38+4)/9 h

  = 14/3 h = 4 2/3 h

Seema's flight time is 4 hours 40 minutes.

Intersection and conditional probability problem. Can anyone help solve this problem?

Answers

Part (a)

Refer to figure 1 in the attached image below. The a,b,c,d,e are placeholders for numbers we'll fill in later (that turns into the table for figure 2). Hopefully you agree about the placement of the numbers. If there's any confusion, then please let me know.

Along the bottom row, we can see that 39+e = 65 which solves to e = 26 after you subtract 39 from both sides. This tells us that there are 26 non-physics majors (ie their major is anything but physics).

Then along the "non-physics" column, notice how b+6 = e, which is the same as b+6 = 26 after replacing 'e' with 26. Solving that equation leads to b = 20. So we have 20 people who are seniors and non-physics majors.

Now move to the top row. We can see that a+b = 30, which is the same as a+20 = 30 because we plug in b = 20. That solves to a = 10. So we have 10 seniors who are physics majors.

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

Now along the first column, we have a+c = 39, aka 10+c = 39, which solves to c = 29. There are 29 non-seniors who are physics majors.

The last variable to find is variable d.

Along the second row, we can say,

c+6 = d

29+6 = d

d = 35

Or we could say that 30+d = 65 along the last column which also solves to d = 35. This tells us we have 35 non-seniors in the class.

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

To summarize so far, we have

a = 10, b = 20, c = 29, d = 35, e = 26

These values will replace the letters as shown in figure 2.

Figure 2 will be used to answer both parts (a) and (b).

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

After that (more than) slight detour of filling in the table, we can finally tackle the question at hand. We're asked to find the probability of selecting someone who is a senior and a physics major. We have a = 10 people who fit the description out of 65 total

Divide the two values and reduce the fraction as much as possible

10/65 = (2*5)/(13*5) = 2/13

Answer:   2/13

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

Part (b)

There's a lot going on with part (a). Luckily there aren't many steps here because pretty much all the work has been done already. We'll refer to figure 2 below.

We're told "given the student is a physics major", which means we focus solely on the "physics major" column only. We ignore everyone else because we know 100% that whoever we selected majored in physics.

We have a = 10 seniors who are also physics majors out of 39 physics majors total.

That constructs the fraction 10/39

Answer: 10/39

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

The population started with 5 rabbits. How many

rabbits are there after 6 months?

Answers

Answer:

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

This means that the population of the colony after t months is given by:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)(3)^t[/tex]

In which P(0) is the initial population.

The population started with 5 rabbits.

This means that [tex]P(0) = 5[/tex]

So

[tex]P(t) = 5(3)^t[/tex]

How many rabbits are there after 6 months?

This is P(6). So

[tex]P(6) = 5(3)^6 = 3645[/tex]

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

The circumference of the base of the cone is 8.5 inches. What is the volume of the cone in term of pi? Round to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer:  V = 270.94/pi

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

Work Shown:

C = 2*pi*r  ......... circumference of the circular base

r = C/(2pi)

r = (8.5)/(2pi)

r = 4.25/pi

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

V = pi*r^2*h ...... volume of the cone

V = pi*(4.25/pi)^2*15

V = pi*(18.0625/pi^2)*15

V = (18.0625*15)/pi

V = 270.9375/pi ..... exact volume in terms of pi

If we round that decimal number up top to the nearest hundredth, then we end up with V = 270.94/pi
