The sides of a triangle are measured at a = 4, b = 5 and c = 6. What is the length of Median A?

Sylvan made a mistake computing the quotient in the problem.

According to the BODMAS rule, the brackets have to be solved first followed by powers or roots (i.e. of), then Division, Multiplication, Addition, and at the end Subtraction. Solving any expression is considered correct only if the BODMAS rule or the PEMDAS rule is followed to solve it.

Given here: 1.6 divided by 0.4

We know 1.6 can be expressed as 1.6=0.4×4

x ÷ y = z.

1.6÷0.4=4

Division method is nothing but the inverse of multiplication.

Divide 1.6 by number 0.4.

Solution:1.6÷0.4=1.6/0.4 with remainder zero

                          =4

Thus the quotient should have been 4

But according to Sylvan 1.6/0.4=0.4 which is not correct.

Hence, Sylvan computed the wrong quotient.

The probability that the woman gave birth to a boy, given that the nurse picked up a boy, is 1/3.

There are 2 boys initially and an unknown number of girls in the nursery, so there were a total of 2 + x babies in the nursery, where x is the number of girls.

Since we know that one of those babies is a boy, there are a total of 2 + x - 1 = 1 + x babies left in the nursery.

So the probability of the nurse picking up a boy, given that the woman gave birth to a boy, is 1/(1+x).

P(boy | picked up boy) = P(picked up boy | boy) * P(boy) / P(picked up boy)

= (1/(1+x)) * 1/2 / (1/(1+x) * 1/2 + x/(1+x) * 1/2)

= 1/3

Car 'B' travels the farthest on one gallon of gas.

From the table of the number of miles car a can drive for different amount of gas, car 'A' needs 8 gallons of gas to cover 200 miles.

So, in one gallon of gas, a car 'A' would cover 25 miles.

By unitary method we will find the remaining values.

Let a car drive 't' miles in 4 gallons of gas

Using unitary method,

t = 25  × 4

t = 100 miles

So, we can say that the rate of the number of miles driven per amounts of gas for car 'A' is 25 miles per gallon.

Car b can travel 140 miles for every 5 gallons of gas.

So, the rate for car B is 140/5 = 28 miles/gallon

And from the graph, the rate for car 'C' would be 81/3 = 27 miles/gallon

Thus, car B is the fastest.

The descriptive measure of dispersion that is based on the concept of a deviation about the mean is the standard deviation.

The sum of all values divided by the total number of values determines the mean (also known as the arithmetic mean, which differs from the geometric mean) of a dataset. The term "average" is frequently used to describe this measure of central tendency.

The method of measuring dispersion most frequently employed is the standard deviation (SD). It is a measurement of data spread around the mean. The SD is calculated by multiplying the total squared departure by the mean by the total number of observations.

Variance is a measure of dispersion that, in contrast to the range and interquartile range, accounts for the spread of all data points in a data collection. Along with the standard deviation, which is just the square root of the variance, it is the measure of dispersion that is most frequently employed.

Therefore, although Mean, Mode, and Median are the measures of central tendency, Standard Deviation, Variance, and Range are measures of dispersion.

The value of c is √14 in the interval [2, 7], which satisfies the Mean Value Theorem.

By definition, the mean value theorem is

f'(c) = [f(b) - f(a)]/b - a

So, in this case, we know that a = 2 and b = 7.

Now, we need to find f(2) and f(7) by replacing those values with the given function

f(x) = 9 - 14/x

f(7) = 9 - 14/7 = 9 - 2 = 7

So, f(b) = f(7) = 7.

f(x) = 9 - 14/x

f(2) = 9 - 14/2 = 9 - 7 = 2

So, f(a) = f(2) = 2

Then, we replace all values,

f'(c) = [f(b) - f(a)]/b - a

= (7 - 2)/(7 - 2)

= 5/5

= 1

Now, calculate the derivative of the function, which has to be equal to 1,

f(x) = = 9 - 14/x

f'(x) = 14/x² = 1

Now, we solve the equation to calculate the value of c,

14/x² = 1

x² = 14

x = √14

Therefore, c = √14 is the value inside the given interval that satisfies the mean value theorem.

What is a function?

In mathematics, a function is a unique arrangement of the inputs (also referred to as the domain) and their outputs (sometimes referred to as the codomain), where each input has exactly one output and the output can be linked to its input.

The table of input and output values are given for the function.

The slope-intercept form of an equation/function is - y = mx + b

To find the slope m use the formula -

(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Substituting the values in the equation -

[-2 - (-11)]/[0 - (-3)]

(-2 + 11)/(0 + 3)

9/3

3

So, the slope point is obtained as m = 3.

The equation becomes - y =3x + b

To find the value of b substitute the values of x and y in the equation -

-11 = 3(-3) + b

-11 = -9 + b

b = -11 + 9

b = -2

So, the value for b is -2.

Now, the equation becomes -

Let 2x be amount of money Thomas started with.

He spent spent half of what he had plus $5 at the first store.

So the expression should be x + 5.

So, we have left money = 2x - (x+5)

Left Money = 2x - x - 5

Left Money = x - 5

he spent half of what was left plus $4 in second store.

So the expression should be = (x - 5)/2 + 4

Now he has left money = 2x - [(x - 5)/2 + 4]

left money = 2x - (x - 5)/2 - 4

After solving, we get

left money = 3x/2 - 3/2

left money = 3(x-1)/2

At the third store, he spent half of the remainder plus $3.

So the expression should be = \frac{3(x-1)/2}{2} + 3

Now he has left money = 2x - \frac{3(x-1)/2}{2} + 3

Answer: KL = 6.1, MK = 5.2 and the angle mZK = 40.

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, to solve for the remaining sides and angles of the triangle, we can use trigonometry.

First, let's use the sine function to find the value of KL:

sin(40) = KL/ML

KL = (sin(40))(ML)

KL = (sin(40))(8)

Next, let's use the cosine function to find the value of MK:

cos(40) = MK/ML

MK = (cos(40))(ML)

MK = (cos(40))(8)

Finally, let's use the tangent function to find the value of mZK:

tan(40) = KL/MK

mZK = tan(40)

To round the answers to the nearest tenth, we can use the function Math.round(x * 10) / 10 in Javascript.

sin(40) = 0.766

cos(40) = 0.644

tan(40) = 1.193

KL = (0.766)(8) = 6.128 ≈ 6.1

MK = (0.644)(8) = 5.152 ≈ 5.2

mZK = 1.193

So the triangle KL = 6.1, MK = 5.2 and the angle mZK = 40.

Answer:

To solve the right triangle, we can use the trigonometric ratios sine, cosine, and tangent.

Given:

angle K = 40°

ML = 8

KL = 2

We can use the sine function to find the value of angle M:

sin(M) = KL / ML

sin(M) = 2 / 8

sin(M) = 0.25

So M = arcsin(0.25) = 14.04 (approximately)

Next, we can use the cosine function to find the value of MK:

cos(M) = ML / KL

cos(M) = 8 / 2

cos(M) = 4

So MK = 4

Lastly, we can use the tangent function to find the value of angle L:

tan(L) = KL / MK

tan(L) = 2 / 4

tan(L) = 0.5

So L = arctan(0.5) = 26.57 (approximately)

So the triangle is ML = 8, KL = 2, and angles M = 14.04° and L = 26.57° rounded to the nearest tenth.

A) The slope of the line is 2.

B) the linear equation is y = 2x - 7

C) y-intercept = -7

   x-intercept = 3.5

A general linear equation can be written as:

y = m*x + b

Where m is the slope.

If the line passes through two points (x₁, y₁)and (x₂, y₂), then the slope is:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

In this case these points are (-3, 7) and (2, -3), then the slope is:

m = (-3 - 7)/(2 + 3) = 2

Then the line is something like:

y = 2x + b

To find the value of b we can replace the values of the point (2, -3), we will get:

-3 = 2*2 + b

-3 - 4 = b

-7 = b

y = 2*x - 7

C) the y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0.

y = 2*0 - 7

According to the V=6i+5j, we can determine that:

Vertical change (y)= 5

Horizontal change (x)=6

Slope=\frac{5}{6}

Now, using the point-slope form:

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

The chosen point is the point where the horseman began riding (-2,5). Therefore:

m=5/6

y1=5

x1=-2

y-5=5/6(x+2)

y=5x/6-10/3

Since the horseman at some point turned at a right angle towards village B  and he unchanged his direction until arrived in village B, the second path must be described by a line perpendicular to the first path.  

We should know that two lines are perpendicular if and only if their slopes are negative reciprocals This means m1*m2=-1

m₁=5/6

m₂=-1/m₁=-6/5

In order to find the equation of the second path, we will use again the point-slope form.

The chosen point is the point where is located Village B (2,11)

y-11=-6/5(x-2)

y=-6x/5+13.4

The coordinates of the point where the horseman buried a jar full of silver coins correspond to the intersection of path 1 and path 2. Therefore we are going to equal the two equations of each path.

5x/6-10/3=-6x/5+13.4

Solving this equality for x

X=6.28

Replacing this value in any of the equations of the paths

Y=9.84.

Finally, the point where he buried his treasure is (6.28,9.84).

Answer:

q= -3.25 and p= -6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

p=5q+10. p=q-3

p-5q=10. p-q=-3 subtract the two equations

-4q=13 q= -3.25 and p= -6.25

The width of the swimming pool is 1.624yards.

In mathematics, volume is the space taken by an object. Volume is a measure of three-dimensional space. It is often quantified numerically using SI derived units or by various imperial or US customary units. The definition of length is interrelated with volume.

Here, we have,

a swimming pool can hold 9.745 cubic yards of water.

i.e. V = 9.745

it has a length of 3 yards and a height of 2 yards.

i.e. l= 3

    h=2

so, width = w = V/(l*h)

i.e. w = 1.624

Hence, the width of the swimming pool is 1.624yards.
