A fisherman can row upstream at 2mph and downstream at 8mph. He started rowing upstream till he got tired and the rowed downstream to his starting point. How far did the fisherman row if the entire trip took 2 hours

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The fisherman row 6.4 miles total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance from his starting point to the  point he turn around is "d" miles.

Given  upstream speed is 2 mph and downstream speed is 8 mph.

We now that  time  =  distance /speed

So  the time required to row "d "miles upstream = d/2 hours

   The time required to row "d" miles downstream  = d/8 hours.

As the entire trip  took  2 hours  so the equation will be :

  d/2 +d/8  =  2

  ( 4d + d ) /8 =   2

  5d  =  16

  d  =   16/ 5 = 3.2 miles

So the fisherman rowed a total of  ( 3.2 x 2 ) miles =  6.4 miles.

Geometric proofs of segments
Again..
Given: B is the midpoint of AC
C is the midpoint of BD
Prove: AD=3AB

This one hurts to look at

Answers

Answer:

The proof is shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: B is mid point of AC and C is mid-point of BD.

To prove: AD=3AB

It is given that B is mid-point of AC.

⇒ AB = BC               ...(1)

Also, C is mid-point of BD.

⇒ BC = CD               ...(2)

From (1) and (2),

AB = BC = CD

Now, AD = AB + BC + CD

⇒ AD = AB + AB + AB             (∵ AB = BC = CD )

Hence proved.

If f(x) = -x + 5 and g(x) = x^2, what is (g° (-1)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex](g\circ f)(-1)=36[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the two functions:

[tex]f(x)=-x+5\text{ and } g(x)=x^2[/tex]

And we want to find:

[tex](g\circ f)(-1)[/tex]

This is equivalent to:

[tex]=g(f(-1))[/tex]

So, evaluating f(-1) first, we acquire:

[tex]f(-1)=-(-1)+5=6[/tex]

Then by substitution:

[tex]=g(6)[/tex]

So:

[tex]=(6)^2=36[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex](g\circ f)(-1)=36[/tex]

Your answer is indeed correct.

please refer to the above attachment.

12. UZ, VX, and TW are medians of Triangle TUV. If YX = 8, find VY.​

Answers

Answer:

VY = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of a triangle is the segment that joins a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite to this vertex.The point of intersection of the medians of a triangle, divide each median at ratio 2: 1 from the vertex.

In the given figure

∵ TUV is a triangle

UZ, VX, and TW are medians

∵ UZ ∩ VX ∩ TW at point Y

∴ Y is the point of intersection of the 3 medians

→ By using the 2nd rule above

∵ The point Y divide VX at the ratio of 2: 1 from the vertex V

VY: YX = 2: 1

∴ [tex]\frac{VY}{YX}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex]

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ VY × 1 = YX × 2

VY = 2YX

∵ YX = 8

∴ VY = 2(8)

VY = 16

Hydrogen atoms fused to form helium due to high pressure.

Large objects clumped together due to gravity to form larger objects.

Large objects were broken apart due to gravity to form fine stellar dust.

Answers

Answer: C) Large objects clumped together due to gravity to form larger objects.

Any mass, no matter how big or small, exerts a force of gravity on other masses. The larger the mass, the more gravitational force is applied. If you had various objects floating in space, then eventually those objects will collide with one another (if they are close enough). Those collisions effectively clump the materials together to form larger masses. Apply this idea multiple times over a very long timespan, and eventually you go from millions of pebbles to larger rock formations to massive asteroids and so on. If you have enough material, then a planet may be formed under the right conditions. This idea applies not just to solid material, but to gasses as well. Planets such as Jupiter is an example of this.

Answer:

Large objects clumped together due to gravity to form larger objects.

Explanation:

All the objects in the universe are subjected to their own force of the gravity and is a fundamental to the study of the force of the universe and help to determine the shape of the planets.The large space object in the solar system is those composed of the large mass that is clustered around by the forces of gravity and held together by the atomic particles.

Two triangles have the same base lengths. One Triangle has the height that is 4 times the height of the other triangle. Are the heights and the areas of the two triangles proportional?

Answers

YES

Area of Triangle 1

Base=b

Height= h

Area 1=A1=1/2*b*h

Area of Triangle 2

Base=b

Height= 4h

Area of triangle 2=A2=1/2*b*4h

Comparing A1 and A2

A2/A1= (1/2*b*4h)/(1/2*b*h)

= (1/2*b*4h)/(1/2*b*h)

=4/1

Ratio of heights =h2/h1= 4/1

Ratio of areas =A2/A1= 4/1

They are proportional.

DUE IN 5 MINUTES MATH QUESTION ​

Answers

Answer:

x= -10

Step-by-step explanation:

So because the angle 55 is part of the same line as one of the unknown angles you can do 180-55 to find that first angle at the top, which is 125.

Next add all three angles (125 + x + 35 + x + 40)=180

Combine the x values to get 2x and subtract the three values from 180

Then 2x= -20, x should be equal to -10

You can plug x back into the values and check your work by adding all the values again, making it all equal to 180 degrees again

Answers

Answer:

(D) The bottom graph, and (A) The top table.

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to pick out the wrong answers is simply through substitution. Substitute the input into the x part of the equation that is given and if it doesn't match up with y everytime, then it is incorrect.

From table A (top table), the input x can be substituted into y = x + 2 which will come out as the output so it is correct.

For table A:

x = -3 → y = x + 2 → y = (-3) + 2 → y = -1 = -1

x = -2 → y = x + 2 → y = (-2) + 2 → y = 0 = 0

x = -1 → y = x + 2 → y = (-1) + 2 → y = 1 = 1

x = 0 → y = x + 2 → y = (0) + 2 → y = 2 = 2

x = 1 → y = x + 2 → y = (1) + 2 → y = 3 = 3

Since the table matches up with the inputs and outputs of the table, it is a correct answer.

For table B:

x = 3 → y = x + 2 → y = (3) + 2 → y = 5 = 5

x = 4 → y = x + 2 → y = (4) + 2 → y = 6 ≠ 7

x = 5 → y = x + 2 → y = (5) + 2 → y = 7 ≠ 9

x = 6 → y = x + 2 → y = (6) + 2 → y = 8 ≠ 11

x = 7 → y = x + 2 → y = (7) + 2 → y = 9 ≠ 13

5 out of the 6 y values of the table do not match the equation, so table B must be incorrect.

Graph C:

Notice how you can see the line cross the x, and y axis. When the line crosses the x axis, it is an x intercept which means y is 0. When the line crosses the y axis, it is a y intercept which means x is 0.

Since the line crosses the y axis at 2, this means that an x of 0 must lead to a y of 2 which it does.

x = 0 → y = x + 2 → y = (0) + 2 → y = 2 = 2.

But the x intercept doesn't match up as shown here.

y = 0 → y = x + 2 → (0) = x + 2 →

0 – 2 = x + 2 – 2 → -2 = x → x = -2 ≠ -1

When graphing the line y = x + 2, it's x intercept should be (-2,0). While on this graph, it's (-1,0). This means that this graph is incorrect which leads to D being another correct answer.

✓ Table A: y = x + 2

× Table B: y = 2x – 1

× Graph C: y = 2x + 2

✓ Graph D: y = x + 2

Does anyone know how to tell if a graph is inverse

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

A function f(x) has an inverse, or is one-to-one, if and only if the graph y = f(x) passes the horizontal line test. A graph represents a one-to-one function if and only if it passes both the vertical and the horizontal line tests.

you can tell if the graph is inverse if f(x) passes the horizontal line test ( basically if it touches the line that goes across *horizontally* on the graph) and a graph is a one to one function if and ONLY if it touches both vertical and horizontal lines on the graph
