Find three consecutive integers such that twice the sum of the first two is to less than three times the third

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the consecutive integers be x - 1 , x , x + 1

Equation

2*(x - 1 + x) = 3*(x+1) - 2

Solution

2(2x - 1) = 3(x + 1) - 2           After the first two have been combined remove the brackets.

4x - 2 = 3x + 3 - 2               Combine the right

4x - 2 = 3x + 1

4x - 2 + 2 = 3x + 1 + 2         Add 2 to both sides

4x = 3x + 3                          Subtract 3x from both sides

4x-3x = 3x - 3x + 3             Combine

x = 3

Check

Left hand side

2(2 + 3)

2(5)

10

Right hand side

3*(x+1) - 2

3*(4) - 2

12 - 2

10

The answers at least agree.

ΔABC is dilated using a scale factor of 12 to produce ΔA'B'C'. Select all of the statements that apply to the transformation.

Answers

Answer:

Options (3) and (6)

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC is a dilated using a scale factor of [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] to produce image triangle ΔA'B'C'.

Since, dilation is a rigid transformation,

Angles of both the triangles will be unchanged or congruent.

m∠A = m∠A' and m∠B = m∠B'

Since, sides of ΔA'B'C' = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of the sides of ΔABC

Area of ΔA'B'C' = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Area of triangle ABC})[/tex]

Area of ΔABC > Area of ΔA'B'C'

Since, angles of ΔABC and ΔA'B'C' are congruent, both the triangles will be similar.

ΔABC ~ ΔA'B'C'

Therefore, Option (3) and Option (6) are the correct options.

Answer: The Third option and the sixth option.

By definition of tangent,

tan(A - π/4) = sin(A - π/4) / cos(A - π/4)

Expand the numerator and denominator using the angle sum identities for sin and cos:

tan(A - π/4) = (sin(A) cos(π/4) - cos(A) sin(π/4)) / (cos(A) cos(π/4) + sin(A) sin(π/4))

Divide through everything on the right by cos(A) cos(π/4):

tan(A - π/4) = (sin(A) / cos(A) - sin(π/4) / cos(π/4)) / (1 + (sin(A) sin(π/4)) / (cos(A) cos(π/4)))

Simplify the sin/cos terms to tan:

tan(A - π/4) = (tan(A) - tan(π/4)) / (1 + tan(A) tan(π/4))

tan(π/4) = 1, so we're left with

tan(A - π/4) = (tan(A) - 1) / (1 + tan(A))

Replace tan(A) with -√15:

tan(A - π/4) = (-√15 - 1) / (1 - √15)

Then the last option is the correct one.

Jodi owes $38,000 in students loans for college. The interest rate is 7.25% and the loan will be paid off over 10 years. How much will Jodi pay TOTAL?

Answers

Answer:

Jodi will have to pay $38,000 in principal plus $27,550 in interest for a total of $65,550.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

P = $38,000, R = 7.25% and T = 10

I = P*R*T

I = (38000)*(.0725)*(10) = $27,550.00

Answer: Jodi will have to pay $38,000 in principal plus $27,550 in interest for a total of $65,550.00.

Answer:   Jodi will pay $65,550.00 in total.

Steps:   7.25% of $38,000 is $2,755.00

Multiply 2,755.00 times 10:      2,755 × 10 =  27,550

$38,000.00 + $27,550.00 = $65,550.00

what is the volume ​

Answers

Answer:

The volume is 227.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume for a triangular prism, such as this is, (lxwxh)/2. Because in all shapes volume equals the area multiplied by the height or depth. And an area of a triangle is l or base multiplied by the altitude or w, divided by 2. So the area would be 5x7/2, 35/2, 17.5. And the volume would be 17.5x13, 227.5

Answers

Answer: b

Step-by-step explanation:

You can determine which is a function by looking at the x values. If an x value repeats, it is not a function. In A, the x variable 2 repeats so it is not a function. In C, the x variable 5 repeats. In D, the x variable -5 repeats. The only answer choice where none of the x values are the same is B, so the answer is B. Hope this helps!

i will give lots of points and brainly please help asap What is the equation of the quadratic of the quadratic graph with a focus of (1,3) and a directex of y= 1 show your work please

Answers

check the picture below.

now, we know the directrix is at y = 1, and the focus point is at 1,3, well, notice the picture, the distance between those fellows is just 2 units.

the vertex is half-way between those fellows, therefore, the vertex will be at 1,2.

the distance "p", from the vertex to either the directrix or focus, is really just 1 unit.  Since the focus point is above the directrix, is a vertical parabola, and it opens upwards, like in the picture, and since it opens up, the "p" value is positive, or +1.

At noon, a tank contained 8 in. of water. After several hours, it contained 2 in. of water. What is the
percent decrease of water in the tank?

Answers

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent decrease, use the percent change formula:

(difference / original) x 100

8 - 2 = 6, so the difference is 6.

Plug in the difference and original:

(6 / 8) x 100

= 75

So, the percent decrease is 75%
