All of the right triangles are similar by AA similarity, so corresponding side lengths are proportional. The ratio of the long leg to the short leg is the same for the two smaller triangles, for example:
CP/AP = MP/CP
CP/9 = 16/CP . . . . . fill in the given numbers
CP² = 9·16 . . . . . . . multiply by 9·CP
CP = 3·4 = 12 . . . . . take the square root
Now, you can use the Pythagorean theorem to find AC and/or CM.
AC = √(9² +12²) = √225 = 15
CM = √(12² +16²) = √400 = 20
In summary, CP = 12, AC = 15, CM = 20.
_____
Once you have CM, you can see these are 3-4-5 right triangles, so you can determine the other lengths by using these side ratios.
3:4:5 = 9:12:15 = 12:16:20
_____
The altitude CP is called the "geometric mean" of AP and MP. It is the square root of their product. This is true for any right triangle, not just one with sides in the ratio 3:4:5. If you know this, you can write down your answers almost immediately. Above, we had to derive this fact using similarity.

ANSWER
Point-slope form:
[tex]y + 5 = -3(x - 1)[/tex]
Slope-intercept form;
[tex]y = - 3x - 2[/tex]
EXPLANATION
The point-slope form of a line is given by:
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]
We need to find the slope using the formula:
[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} [/tex]
Let us substitute the point (1, –5) and (–3, 7).
This implies that,
[tex]m = \frac{7 - - 5}{ - 3 - 1} [/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{12}{ - 4} = - 3[/tex]
The point slope form now becomes,
[tex]y - - 5 = - 3(x - 1)[/tex]
[tex]y + 5 = -3(x - 1)[/tex]
To find the slope intercept form, we expand to obtain;
[tex]y = - 3x + 3 - 5[/tex]
[tex]y = - 3x - 2[/tex]

Fred's dog groomer charges $25 to give his dog a haircut. The groomer is increasing the price for a haircut by 35%. What will Fred pay the groomer the next time his dog has a haircut?
Answer:
33.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1- Find the decimal form of 35%
Step 2- When you find that multiply that by 25
Step 3- When you find the answer to step 2 add that to 25
That is your answer
Final answer:
The price that Fred will pay the groomer the next time when his dog has a haircut is $33.75.
Explanation:
The question asks us to calculate the new price Fred will pay for his dog's haircut after the groomer increases the price by 35%. To find the new price, we'll use the formula for calculating percentage increase, which is: New Price = Original Price + (Original Price * Percentage Increase).
First, convert the percentage increase to a decimal by dividing it by 100, so 35% becomes 0.35. Then, multiply the original price of $25 by 0.35 to find the amount of the increase, which is $8.75.Finally, add the increase to the original price to find the new price, which is $25 + $8.75 = $33.75. So, Fred will pay $33.75 the next time his dog has a haircut.

Write the equation of the quadratic function with roots 6 and 10 and a vertex at (8, 2).
Answer:
https://socratic.org/questions/how-do-you-write-the-equation-of-the-quadratic-function-with-roots-6-and-10-and-
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the roots are x = 6 and x = 10, then
the factors are (x - 6) and (x - 10)
The quadratic is then the product of the roots
y = a(x - 6)(x - 10) ← a is a multiplier
To find a substitute (8, 2) into the equation
2 = a(2)(- 2) = - 4a ( divide both sides by - 4 )
a = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Hence
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](x - 6)(x - 10) ← expand factors
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](x² - 16x + 60) ← distribute
y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x² + 8x - 30
You have a total of 45 dimes and quarters. You have 3 more quarters than dimes. Which system of equations can you use to find the number x of quarters and number y of dimes you have? Use the system to determine how much money you have in quarters and dimes.
Let's call dimes x and the quarters x+3 since we have 3 more of them.
x+x+3=45
2x=42
x=21
we have 21 dimes and 23 quarters
21*0.10=2.1
23*0,25=5.98
if we add those together it equals 8.08
Answer:
$8.10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d and q represent the # of dimes and quarters, respectively. Then write equations reflecting this story:
q = d + 3, and d + q = 45. Substitute d + 3 for q in the second equation, obtaining:
d + d + 3 = 45, or 2d = 42, or d = 21. Then there are 21 dimes and 24 quarters. That comes to $2.10 + $6.00, or $8.10.
Write an explicit rule and recursive rule for a geometric sequence with a second term of 6 and a third term of 12.
Step-by-step answer:
Given:
Geometric sequence with
second term, T2 = 6
third term, T3 = 12
Wants to have the explicit and recursive rules.
Solution:
common ratio, r = 12/6 = 2
Therefore the first term, T1
= second term /r
= 6/2
=3
Thus the absolute rule is
Tn = T1 *r^(n-1) where T1 = 3, r=2. Check: T3 = T1*2^(3-1) = 3*2^2=12 ...good
The recursive rule (depending on the previous term)
Tn = Tn-1*r = 2*Tn-1
The explicit rule for the sequence is a_n = 3 * 2^(n-1), and the recursive rule is a_n = a_(n-1) * 2. These were determined by identifying the common ratio of the sequence as 2.
Explanation:In a geometric sequence, each term is generated by multiplying the previous term by a common ratio. Given the second term (6) and third term (12) in the sequence, we can identify the common ratio by dividing the third term by the second term. So, 12 divided by 6 equals 2. Therefore, the common ratio is 2.
So, the explicit rule (the nth term) of this sequence would be: a_n = a_1 * r^(n-1) = 6 / 2 * 2^(n-1) = 3 * 2^(n-1).
The recursive rule for the sequence would be: a_n = a_(n-1) * r = a_(n-1) * 2.
To summarize, we determined the common ratio to be 2 by dividing the third term by the second term. We then used this ratio to create the explicit and recursive rules for the geometric sequence.

A totem pole casts a 20 meter shadow when the angle of elevation of the sum is 45what is the distance from the top of the totem pole to the end of the shadow
Answer:
20√2 meters (approximately 28.28 m)
Step-by-step explanation:
It may help to make a diagram. Because this is a 45 45 90 triangle, you can use those rules to help solve.
Final answer:
The distance from the top of a totem pole to the end of its shadow, when the angle of elevation of the sun is 45 degrees, is approximately 28.28 meters.
Explanation:
The student has presented a problem that involves using trigonometry to calculate the distance from the top of a totem pole to the end of its shadow when the angle of elevation of the sun is 45 degrees. To solve this, we can use the concept of right-angled triangles and the properties of special triangles, specifically a 45-45-90 triangle where the two legs are congruent. Since the angle of elevation is 45 degrees and the length of the shadow is given as 20 meters, we know that in this special right triangle, the lengths of the two legs are equal. Therefore, the distance from the top of the totem pole to the end of the shadow (the hypotenuse of the triangle) is the length of the shadow times the square root of 2, based on the Pythagorean theorem.
Using the formula hypotenuse = leg × √2, we substitute the leg length of 20 meters to get hypotenuse = 20 m × √2, which equals approximately 28.28 meters.

7ab + 5
not possible
Answer:
7ab+5
Step-by-step explanation:
add like terms (3ab+4ab=7ab)
5 doesn't have a like term so it stays by itself
Hey there! :)
3ab + 4ab + 5
In order to simplify this, we must add like terms. In addition, when simplifying, you can ONLY add like terms.
Since both "3ab" & "4ab" contain "ab," you are able to combine them together!
When combining like terms, you only add the numerical value, not the letters.
This leaves us with : 7ab + 5
Therefore, your answer is 7ab + 5

Which choice is equivalent to the fraction below when x is greater than or equal to 2?
Answer:
D. 2(√{x} + √{x - 2})
Step-by-step explanation:
As hinted in the question, we have to simplify the denominator.
To understand it easier, let's imagine we have x - y in the denominator. If we multiply it with x + y we'll get x² - y², right? Check the next line:
(x - y) (x + y) = x² + xy -xy - y² = x² - y²
If we have the square of those nasty square roots, it will be much simpler to deal with. So, let's multiply the initial fraction using x+y, but with the real values:
[tex]\frac{4}{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{x - 2} } * \frac{\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x - 2}}{\sqrt{x} - \sqrt{x - 2}} = \frac{4(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x - 2})}{(\sqrt{x} )^{2} - (\sqrt{x - 2} )^{2} }[/tex]
Then we simplify:
[tex]\frac{4(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x - 2})}{(\sqrt{x} )^{2} - (\sqrt{x - 2} )^{2} } = \frac{4(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x - 2})}{(x) - (x - 2) } = \frac{4(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x - 2})}{ 2 } = 2(\sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x - 2})[/tex]

Answer:
x = -9
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides by √(x - 6) to eliminate the fraction:
√(3x) = 3√(x - 6)
Now square both sides:
3x = 9(x - 6), or 3x = 9x - 54.
Combining the x terms results in -6x = -54, and thus x = 9.
Answer:
The correct answer is option D. x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached question we get an expression,
√3x/√(x - 6) = 3
To find the solution of given expression
√3x/√(x - 6) = 3
Squaring both side we get,
3x/(x - 6) = 9
3x = 9 * (x - 6)
3x = 9x - 54
9x - 3x = 54
6x = 54
x = 54/6 = 9
Therefore the correct option is D. x = 9

The radius of a sphere is 6 inches. Find the length of a chord connecting two perpendicular radii.
Answer:
6√2.

A rectangle has a length that is 5 inches greater than its width, and its area is 104 square inches. The equation (x + 5)x = 104 represents the situation, where x represents the width of the rectangle. (x + 5)x = 104 x2 + 5x – 104 = 0 Determine the solutions of the equation. What solution makes sense for the situation? x = What are the dimensions of the rectangle? width = inches length = inches
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 5x – 104 = 0
Factor using the AC method. Here, a = 1 and c = -104. Multiplied together, ac = -104. Factors of -104 that add up to +5 are +13 and -8.
(x + 13) (x - 8) = 0
x = -13, 8
A negative width doesn't make sense, so x = 8. Therefore, the width is 8 inches and the length is 5 more than that, or 13 inches.
Answer:
width = 8
length = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
All that is left to do is factor the results that you have
x^2 + 5x - 104 = 0
You need two numbers that are fairly close together (ignore the sign differ by 5) and multiply to 104.
The two numbers are 8 and 13
More formally stated, the quadratic can be factored to
(x + 13)(x - 8) = 0
x - 8 =0
x - 8 + 8 = 8 + 0
x = 8
x + 13 = 0 has no meaning.
That means that the width ( a positive number ) = 8
The length is 5 more = 13

Answer:
[tex]t=7.4years[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's clear t from the equation [tex]N=16.10^{0.15t}[/tex]. In order to clear t, we have to apply [tex]log_{10} (x)[/tex] in both side of the equations.
[tex]log_{10}N=log_{10}(16.10)^{0.15t}[/tex]
By using properties of the logarithm
[tex]log_{10} (a.b)}= log_{10}a+log_{10}b[/tex]
We obtain:
[tex]log_{10}N=log_{10}(16)+log_{10} (10^{0.15t})[/tex]
Ordering using the logarithm property [tex]log_{10}a^{n} =nlog_{10}a[/tex] and [tex]log_{10} 10=1[/tex]
[tex]log_{10}N=log_{10}(16)+0.15tlog_{10}10[/tex]
[tex]log_{10}N=log_{10}(16)+0.15t[/tex]
Clearing t
[tex]t=\frac{log_{10}N-log_{10}(16)}{0.15}[/tex] using the logarith property [tex]log_{10}a-log_{10}b=log_{10}\frac{a}{b}[/tex]
we obtain:
[tex]t=\frac{log_{10}\frac{N}{16} }{0.15}[/tex]
The number of Elm trees is N = 204
Solving
[tex]t=\frac{log_{10}\frac{204}{16} }{0.15}\\t=\frac{log_{10}12.75}{0.15}=7.370[/tex]
