A. (x-2)(x-7)
B. (x+2)(x-7)
C. (x+2)(x+7)
D. (x-2)(x+7)

Answers

Answer 1
The answer is B.
Proof:
-7+2=-5
-7*2=-14

Also, when you FOIL it becomes
x^2-7x+2x-14
That simplifies to
x^2-5x-14
Answer 2

Answer:

The factored form is

[tex]x^2-7x+2x-14=(x+2)(x-7)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the trinomial

[tex]x^2-5x-14[/tex]

we have to factor the above trinomial.

[tex]x^2-5x-14[/tex]

By middle term splitting method

[tex]x^2-7x+2x-14[/tex]

Taking x common from first two terms and 2 from last two terms

[tex]x(x-7)+2(x-7)[/tex]

[tex](x+2)(x-7)[/tex]

which are required factors.

Hence, option B is correct.

A puzzle contains a triangular piece with a base of 3 in. and a height of 4 in. A manufacturer wants to make 80 puzzles. Find the amount of wood used if each puzzle contains 20 triangular pieces.

Answers

I believe this question asks for the total amount of area of wood that is needed to make 80 puzzles.

The formula for area of triangle is given as:

A = (1 / 2) b h

where,

b = is the base of the triangle = 3 in

h = height of the triangle = 4 in

 

So calculating for area of 1 on triangle (A1):

A1 = (1 / 2) (3 in) (4 in)

A1 = (1 / 2) 12 in^2

A1 = 6 in^2

 

We are given that we are to make 80 puzzles and each puzzle has 20 triangles, therefore the total amount of triangles we need to make is:

n = 80 * 20

n = 1600

 

Therefore the total area needed (A) is:

A = A1 * n

A = 6 in^2 * 1600

A = 9,600 in^2

Find Y of the polygon

Answers

I that 'y' is 45 degrees because of alternate angles (I think its called).

If you look at the large triangle on the left where the corner angles are 35 and 80 and 20+an unknown angle. We can work out the missing angle by doing 180-80-35-20= 45. 

And so if we use the fact that alternate angle must be equal then y= 45 degrees (I think!)

180° - 35° - 80° = 65° (sum of ∠s in a ∆)
65° - 20° = 45°
y = 45° (alt. ∠s)

Steel, Pumpkin Pie, Whipped Cream, Air

Answer: Hello there!

We know that:

[tex]density = \frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

This means that two of two objects whit the same size ( volume) the heaviest one is the more dense object.

The 4 that we have here are:

Air, Pumpkin pie, Whipped cream, and Steel

It is easy to assume that the steel is the more dense object.

The pumpkin pie comes second

third is the whipped cream, which is cream with a lot of tiny air bubbles inside

the less dense object is the air.

then the order is:

Steel, pumpkin pie, whipped cream, air.

Which of the following equations represents an inverse variation?

A.
6y = x
B.
1/2y = 1/x
C.
–x = y + 8
D.
y = 1/4x

Answers

An equation typically used to represent inverse variation is y = k/x, where k is the "constant of proportionality for inverse variation."

6y = x does not represent inverse variation, since y increases when x increases or x increases when y increases. This is an example of direct proportion and is thus not an answer.


1/2y = 1/x should be written as (1/2)y = 1/x, to emphasize that (1/2) is a coefficient of y. Let's solve for y to see what form the resulting equation has:

(1/2)y = 1/x => y = 2/x. This has the form y = k/x, and thus represents inverse variation. y decreases when x increases.


–x = y + 8 is a linear equation and thus could not possibly represent inverse proportion. The "offset," +8, also makes it impossible for –x = y + 8 to represent direct variation. Reject this answer choice.


y = 1/4x has the form y = (1/4)x, which resembles a rule for direct variation.

Note, however, that if you really meant y = 1 / (4x), or y = (1/4)(1/x), then this would be a case of inverse variation.


The only answer choice in this problem that clearly represents indirect variation is (1/2)y = 1/x (as I have already said, above).

The size of a bicycle is determined by the diameter of the wheel. You want a 24-in bicycle for Christmas. What is the circumference of one of the wheels? A 75.4 in B 75.3 in C 37.7 in D 37.6 in

Answers

Answer:

The circumference of one of the wheels is:  

                     Option: A    75.4 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 24-in bicycle means that the diameter of the wheel of the bicycle isL 24 in.

We know that the wheel of the bicycle is in the shape of a circle.

This means that the diameter of circle is: 24 in.

Hence, the radius(r) of circle is: 12 in.

( since we know that the radius(r) of the circle is half the diameter(d) of the circle)

Now, we are asked to find the circumference of the circle.

The circumference(C) of the circle is given by:

C=2πr

i.e.

C=2×3.14×12

i.e.

C=75.36 in.

which to the nearest tenth is: C=75.4 in.

Quadrilateral LMNO is transformed according to the rule T(–2, 4). What are the coordinates of L’?  (3, –3) (3, 5) (9, –1) (9, 3)

Answers

A transformation specified with a rule T (x, y) means that the figure is undergoing a process of translation. Translation means that only the positions of the coordinates are changed with no other change on the angle, lengths or any other characteristic aside from the position alone.

So since the rule is T (-2, 4) then this means that the figure is moved 2 units left and 4 units up.

The initial coordinates of point L is:

point L = (5, 1)

The coordinates of L’ then is:

point L’ = L(5, 1) + T(-2, 4)

point L’ = (5 – 2, 1 + 4)

point L’ = (3, 5)

Triangle FGH is a right triangle. Angle G is a right angle, m∠F = 9x – 1, and m∠H = 3x + 7. What is m∠F?

Answers

interior angles of a triangle add up to 90 degrees

< F + < G + < H = 180
9x - 1 + 90 + 3x + 7 = 180
12x + 96 = 180
12x = 180 - 96
12x = 84
x = 84/12
x = 7

so < F = 9x - 1 = 9(7) - 1 = 63 - 1 = 62 <=====
< G = 90
< H = 3x + 7 = 3(7) + 7 = 21 + 7 = 28
added : 62 + 90 + 28 = 180
the angles of a triangle must add up to 180 degrees.

G = 90 (because it's a right angle)
F = 9x - 1
H = 3x + 7

90 + (9x - 1) + (3x + 7) = 180
(9x - 1) + (3x + 7) = 90
12x + 6 = 90
12x = 84
x = 7

now that we have x, we can find out the measure of angle F.

9(7) - 1

angle F is 62 degrees

The correct next step that Cynthia should do is to:

The arc markings are actually used as the baseline in determining the center and the radius of the circle. The arc markings are created with the use of a compass. All other choices are completely irrelevant because what we need is the arc and not the angles. The angles do not create the circle. Letter C is also wrong because what we are trying to form is the circle and not the triangle. The triangle is already created.

Number of students which knew French = 57

Number of students which knew both French and Spanish  = 23

Number of students which knew Spanish but not French = 11

Number of students which knew neither French nor Spanish = 4

So, we get that,

Number of students not knowing French = 57 - 23 = 34

Hence, the table for the given situation is,

The volume of a sphere with radius r is 4 3 πr 3 . what is the volume of a sphere with radius 5

Answers

Final answer:

To find the volume of a sphere with a radius of 5, plug the value into the formula V = (4/3)πr³. The result is approximately 523.6 cm³.

Explanation:

The question asks for the volume of a sphere with a given radius. The formula to calculate the volume of a sphere is V = (4/3)πr³, where V is the volume and r is the radius of the sphere.

To find the volume of a sphere with radius 5, we substitute r with 5 in the formula:

V = (4/3)π(5)³

V = (4/3)π(125)

V = (4/3)π(125) = 500/3π cm³

The volume of a sphere with radius 5 is therefore 500/3π cubic centimeters, which is approximately 523.6 cm³ when rounded to one decimal place.

Answer:

B) 10

Step-by-step explanation:

If DE is midsegment of the triangle, we know that AC measures twice as DE.

In the problem we have that AC = x + 15 and DE = x + 5

Writing this as an equation we have:

[tex]x + 15 = 2(x+5)\\x+15=2x +10\\15-10=2x-x\\5=x[/tex]

Therefore x = 5 and the length of segment DE is:

x + 5 = 5 + 5 = 10

Therefore the correct answer is B) 10
