True or false the difference of two numbers is less than either of those two numbers

Answers

Answer 1
The difference of two numbers is not always less at either of the two numbers. (especially for negative numbers)

Take fo example, 40 - 30 = 10.
Here the difference is less than both two numbers.

But in 40 - 15 = 25
Here the difference is less than one of the numbers but greater than the other number.

Now consider, -3 and -5, their difference is given by (-3) - (-5) = -3 + 5 = 2.
Here, 2 is greater than both -3 and -5.

Therefore, The difference of two numbers is not always less than either of those two numbers.

Your answer is False.

In the diagram, which two points are shown to be collinear?

Answers

In the given diagram, the points that are shown to be collinear are H and E.

Collinearity in geometry refers to the condition where three or more points lie on the same straight line. In this case, points H and E are collinear as they lie on the same straight line, which is represented by a vertical double-headed arrow passing through them.

The diagram consists of two parallelograms, labeled 'I M' and 'E P', with three points inside each. In the parallelogram 'I M', the points are labeled as I, H, and J from top to bottom. Similarly, in the parallelogram 'E P', the points are labeled as F, E, and G from top to bottom. Among these points, only H and E share the same straight line, making them collinear. The other points do not share this line and hence are not collinear with H and E. This concept is fundamental in understanding geometric relationships and properties.

What are the amplitude, period, and midline of f(x) = 3 cos(4x − π) + 2?

Answers

Amplitude: 3; period: pi/2; midline: y = 2

Answer:

The amplitude of the function is 3, period of the function is [tex]\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex] and midline of the function is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

[tex]f(x)=3\cos(4x-\pi)+2[/tex]               .... (1)

The standard form of a Cosine function is

[tex]g(x)=a\cos(bx+c)+d[/tex]               ... (2)

where, a is amplitude, period is [tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex] and d is midline.

From (1) and (2), we get

[tex]a=3,b=4,d=2[/tex]

The amplitude of the function is

[tex]a=3[/tex]

The period of the function is

[tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{2\pi}{4}=\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]

The midline of the function is

[tex]d=2[/tex]

Therefore the amplitude of the function is 3, period of the function is [tex]\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex] and midline of the function is 2.

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The missing steps in this proof is; [tex]\angle 1 \cong \angle 4[/tex] and [tex]\angle 3 \cong \angle 5[/tex].

Explanation:         

Given ΔABC.

Prove that:  The sum of the interior angle measures of ΔABC is [tex]180^{\circ}[/tex]

Let A ,B and C forms a triangle    [Given]

Parallel lines are those two lines that are always the same distance apart and never touch.

then, by the definition of parallel lines and labeling angles

DE be the line passing through B, parallel to AC, with angles as labelled in the figure as shown below in the attachment.

Alternative Interior Angle theorem states that the angles that are formed on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two lines are alternate interior angles also this theorem says that when the lines are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are equal.

Then,

[tex]\angle 1 \cong \angle 4[/tex] and                              

[tex]\angle 3 \cong \angle 5[/tex]        [By Alternative Interior angle theorem]            

Angles are always congruent if their measures in degrees are equal.

therefore,

[tex]m\angle 1 =m\angle 4[/tex] and

[tex]m\angle 3=m\angle 5[/tex]      [By Congruent Angle have equal measure]                                                                   ......[1]

Straight Angles states that angles on one side of a straight line always add to 180 degrees.

From the given figure;

By the addition angle and definition of straight angle we get;

[tex]m\angle 4 +m\angle 2 +m\angle 5 =180^{\circ}[/tex]      ......[2]

Substituting equation [1] in [2] we get;

[tex]m\angle 1 +m\angle 2 +m\angle 3 =180^{\circ}[/tex]  

Therefore, the sum of the interior angles measures of triangle ABC is [tex]180^{\circ}[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is 2 yd longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 24 yd , find its area.

Answers

Width = x
Length = x +2
Perimeter = 24
Area = Width • Length = ?

Perimeter = 24 = 2(x +2) + 2(x)
= 2x + 4 + 2x

= 20 = 4x
= 5 = x

Width = x = 5, therefore Length = (5) + 2 = 7

Area = Width • Length = 5 • 7 = 35

Area = 35 yards

a lab researcher wants to find out whether mice will run through a maze quicker during the day or at night, after training. He has 100 mice available. He randomly assigns 50 of them into ech group. He trains the first group to run the maze ar 9:00am and trains the sevond group to run the maze ar 9:00 pm. Each mouse is trained the same way, and the last 3 years run times are recored. Describe what is being measured in this experiment and what variable is being manipulated?

Answers

In this case, since the run times are the one being compared and recorded, therefore the data being measured in the experiment is the run times.

The difference of the two groups of mice is the time of the day that the mice run, day or night. Therefore the variable being manipulated is the time of the day.

Jennifer is on a trip and travels a distance of 150 miles. she spends some of her time walking, and some of her time travelling by train. if she spends w hours walking and t hours travelling by train, what is the meaning of 3w in the equation below? 50t + 3w =150

Answers

Final answer:

In the equation 50t + 3w = 150, 3w represents the distance Jennifer travels by walking in 3 hours.

Explanation:

In the equation 50t + 3w = 150, the term 3w represents the distance Jennifer travels by walking. Since w represents the number of hours she spends walking, 3w represents the distance she walks in 3 hours. This is because the rate of walking is constant, so if Jennifer walks for 1 hour and covers a certain distance, she would walk 3 times that distance in 3 hours.

Two right triangles are graphed on a coordinate plane. One triangle has a vertical side of 2 and a horizontal side of 6. The other triangle has a vertical side of 10 and a horizontal side of 30.

Could the hypotenuses of these two triangles lie along the same line?

No, because they are not similar triangles
No, because one is larger than the other
Yes, because they are both right triangles
Yes, because they are similar triangles

Answers

Compare the vertical/horizontal ratios to the slope of a line.  In the first triangle the vertical/horizontal ratio (which can also be described as the rise over the run, which is the slope definition) is 2/6 or 1/3.  In the second triangle, the vertical/horizontal ratio is 10/30 or 1/3.  Both of the third sides have a slope of 1/3, so the answer is the last one.

B. 28.6

C. 9.8

D. 2.2

Answers

I think the answer is B not sure
ANSWER

[tex]9.8[/tex]


EXPLANATION

Triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADC,
therefore the corresponding sides sides are in the same proportion.


[tex] \frac{AB}{AD} = \frac{BC}{CD} [/tex]



We substitute the values to obtain,


[tex] \frac{AB}{16.7} = \frac{4.5}{7.7} [/tex]


We multiply through by
[tex]16.7[/tex]

to get,

[tex] AB= \frac{4.5}{7.7} \times 16.7[/tex]

This simplifies to give us,

[tex] AB= 9.75940259402....[/tex]

To the nearest tenth,

[tex] AB= 9.8[/tex]

Jack is building a deck that is 8 ft by 27.63 ft. He has the base built; he just needs to cover the surface with wood. When he gets to the hardware store he finds sheets of wood that are four ft by eight ft. Use estimation to determine how many sheets of wood he should buy to cover the surface of the deck.

Answers

The area of the deck is :
A ( deck ) = 8 * 27.63 = 221.04 ft²
The area of the sheet of wood:
A ( sheet ) = 4 * 8 = 32 ft²
221.04 : 32 = 6.9 ≈ 7 ( we need a whole number )
Answer: He should buy 7 sheets of wood to cover the surface of the deck.
