Answer:
x = 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given triangle is a right angle triangle.
We cannot use the Pythagoras theorem as the lengths of all sides are not known. We will use triangular ratios here to solve the given problem.
As it is clear from the diagram that x is the hypotenuse of the triangle and 11 is the length of the base. We will use a ratio in which base and hypotenuse are used.
So,
cos θ= base/hypotenuse
cos 28=11/x
x=11/cos28
x=11/0.8829
x=12.45
Rounding off to nearest 10
x=12.5

PROBLEM: In right △ABC, the altitude CH to the hypotenuse AB intersects angle bisector AL in point D. Find the sides of △ABC if AD = 8 cm and DH = 4 cm.
ANSWERS: AB = 16√3, AC = 8√3, BC =24
Explanation:
The altitude CH divides triangle ABC into similar triangles:
ΔABC ~ ΔACH ~ ΔCBH
Angle bisector AL divides the triangle(s) into proportional parts:
BL/BA = CL/CA
HD/HA = CD/CA
Of course, the Pythagorean theorem applies to the sides of each right triangle:
AH^2 +CH^2 = AC^2
DH^2 +AH^2 = AD^2
LC^2 + AC^2 = LA^2
AC^2 +BC^2 = AB^2
And segment lengths sum:
HD +DC = HC
AD +DL = AL
AH +HB = AB
CL +LB = CB
Solving the problem involves picking the relations that let you find something you don't know from the things you do know. You keep going this way until the whole geometry is solved (or, at least, the parts you care about).
___
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find AH right away, since we already know AD and DH.
DH^2 +AH^2 = AD^2
4^2 + AH^2 = 8^2 . . . . . . . substitute known values
AH^2 = 64 -16 = 48 . . . . . . subtract 16
AH = 4√3 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root
Now, we can use this with the angle bisector relation to tell us how CD and CA are related.
HD/HA = CD/CA
4/(4√3) = CD/CA . . . . . substitute known values
CA = CD·√3 . . . . . . . . . cross multiply and simplify
Using the sum of lengths equation, we have ...
CH = HD +CD
CH = 4 + CD
From the Pythagorean theorem ...
AH^2 +CH^2 = AC^2
(4√3)^2 + (4 +CD)^2 = (CD√3)^2 . . . . . substitute known values
48 + (16 +8·CD +CD^2) = 3·CD^2 . . . . . simplify a bit
2·CD^2 -8·CD -64 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . put the quadratic into standard form
2(CD -8)(CD +4) = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . factor
CD = 8 . . . . . only the positive solution is useful here
Now, we know ...
∆ADC is isosceles, so ∠ACH = ∠CAD = ∠DAH = ∠CBA
CH = 8+4 = 12
AC = 8√3 . . . . . = 2·AH
Then by similar triangles, ...
AB = 2·AC = 16√3
BC = AC·√3 = 24

A child launches a toy rocket from the top of a slide at the park. Suppose the equation -16t^2+28t+8=0 can be used to find how many seconds it will take for the rocket to hit the ground. A)Write the equation in factored form. B)Use the zero product property to solve the equation. Show all the steps needed to find both answers. C)Explain how the solution relates to this situation.
Answer:
A) The equation in factored form is (4t + 1)(t - 2) = 0
B) The solutions of the equation are t = -1/4 and t = 2
C) It will take 2 seconds for the rocket to hit the ground
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets study the information in the problem
- A child launches a toy rocket from the top of a slide
- The equation of the motion is -16² + 28t + 8 = 0, where t is the time
of rocket to hit the ground
* Now lets solve the problem
- At first simplify the equation
∵ -16t² + 28t + 8 = 0
∵ Al the terms have a factor 4
- Divide all terms by 4
∴ -4t² + 7t + 2 = 0 ⇒ multiply all terms by -1
∴ 4t² - 7t - 2 = 0
- Lets factorize
∵ 4t² = 4t × 1t ⇒ 1st term in the 1st bracket × 1st term in the 2nd bracket
∵ -2 = 1 × -2 ⇒ 2nd term in the 1st bracket × 2nd term in the 2nd bracket
∵ 4t + -2 = -8t ⇒ product of the extremes
∵ 1t × 1 = 1t ⇒ product of means
∵ -8t + 1t = -7t ⇒ middle term
∴ The factorization of 4t² - 7t - 2 is (4t + 1)(t - 2)
∴ (4t + 1)(t - 2) = 0
A) The equation in factored form is (4t + 1)(t - 2) = 0
- Lets use the zero product property to solve the equation
∵ (4t + 1)(t - 2) = 0
- Equate each factor by 0
∵ 4t + 1 = 0 ⇒ subtract 1 from both sides
∴ 4t = -1 ⇒ divide both sides by 4
∴ t = -1/4
OR
∵ t - 2 = 0 ⇒ add 2 for both sides
∴ t = 2
B) The solutions of the equation are t = -1/4 and t = 2
C) We can not accept the answer t = -1/4 because there is no negative
value for the time
∴ The answer is t = 2 only
* It will take 2 seconds for the rocket to hit the ground

It took Fran 2.7 hours to drive to her mother's house on Monday morning. On her return trip on Tuesday night, traffic was heavier, so the trip took her 3 hours. Her average speed on Tuesday was 6 mph slower than on Monday. What was her average speed on Tuesday.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a table for a distance = rate × time problem. We are considering the trips taken on Monday and Tuesday.
d = r × t
Monday
Tuesday
Now let's start filling in what we know. First off, Fran went to her Mother's both days. Unless her Mother moved overnight from Monday to Tuesday, the distance from Fran to her mom is the same both days, even though we don't know how far it is. So we will just call that "d".
d = r × t
Monday d =
Tuesday d =
Now we are told about the times it took to get there on both days. Monday took 2.7 hours and Tuesday took 3 hours. Filling in that:
d = r × t
Monday d = × 2.7
Tuesday d = × 3
We're getting there. Now let's look at rates. Again, we don't know her rate (that's what we are solving for!) but we do know that she drove faster on Monday than Tuesday. Tuesday she was 6 miles per hour slower than Monday. Since we don't know Monday's rate, we will call it r. Since we don't know Tuesday's rate, but only that it is 6 mph slower than Monday, we will call it r - 6
d = r × t
Monday d = r × 2.7
Tuesday d = r-6 × 3
Now we have our equations. We know that d = rt. Since the distances are the same, d = d, by the transitive property of equality, we can set the 2 expressions equal to each other:
2.7r = 3(r - 6) and solve for r:
2.7r = 3r - 18
-.3r = -18
r = 60
If r = 60, then that r value goes in for Monday. That means that Tuesday is 60 - 6 which is 54
What was her average speed on Tuesday is 54 mph
Monday
Time = 2.7 hours
Date = r mph
Distance = 4.5r miles
Tuesday
Time = 3 hours
rate = r-6 mph
Distance = 3(r-6) miles
Hence:
Distance = distance
2.7r=3(r-6)
2.7r = 3r - 18
0.3r = 18
r =18/0.3
r 60 mph ( Monday rate)
r-6=60-3 (Tuesday rate)
r-6 = 54 mph (Tuesday rate)
Inconclusion What was her average speed on Tuesday is 54 mph.

Part 8) Option C. line b
Part 11) Option D. -1/5
Part 15) Option A. line a
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 2) we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a directly variation if it can be expressed in the form [tex]y=kx[/tex]
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
In this problem the line passes through the origin
therefore
Yes. y varies directly with x
Let
A(4,1)
The constant k is equal to
[tex]k=y/x[/tex]
substitute
[tex]k=1/4[/tex]
the equation is equal to
[tex]y=(1/4)x[/tex]
Part 6) we know that
The y-intercept of the trend line is -1 (For x=0)
The slope of the trend line is positive
The x-intercept of the trend line is 5 (For y=0)
therefore
the equation is equal to
[tex]y=(1/5)x-1[/tex]
Part 8) we have
[tex]y+4=-\frac{2}{3}x[/tex]
This is the equation of a line into point slope form
The slope is negative [tex]m=-2/3[/tex]
Pass through the point (0,-4) ----> y-intercept
The x-intercept is equal to
[tex]0+4=-\frac{2}{3}x[/tex]
[tex]x=-4*3/2=-6[/tex]
therefore
Is the line b
Part 11)
What is the slope of the line through the points (–2, –1) and (8, –3)?
we know that
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
[tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]m=\frac{-3+1}{8+2}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-2}{10}[/tex]
simplify
[tex]m=-\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Part 15) we have

The slope is positive [tex]m=3[/tex]
The y-intercept is -2 (For x=0)
The x-intercept is (For y=0)

Which function represents a translation of the graph of y = x^2 by 8 units to the right?
A. [tex]y=x^2+8[/tex]
B. [tex]y=8x^2[/tex]
C. [tex]y=(x-8)^2[/tex]
D. [tex]y=(x+8)^2[/tex]
Answer:
Option C. [tex]y = (x-8) ^ 2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a parent function f(x) and we want to make a transformation that translates the graph of f(x) horizontally then we do
[tex]y = f (x + h)[/tex]
Where h is a constant such that:
If [tex]h> 0[/tex] then the graph of f(x) moves h units to the left
If [tex]h <0[/tex] then the graph of f(x) moves h units to the right.
In this case we have the function [tex]y = x ^ 2[/tex] and we know that 8 units are moved to the right. If you move 8 units to the right This means that
[tex]h <0[/tex] and [tex]h = -8[/tex]
So if [tex]f(x) = x ^ 2[/tex] the transformed function will be:
[tex]y = f(x -8)[/tex]
[tex]y = (x-8) ^ 2[/tex]

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2, 6)?
x = 2
x = 6
y = 2
y = 6
Answer:
Either x = 2 or y = 6, depending on the original line
Step-by-step explanation:
So, if the original line is horizontal, our new line is vertical, and all vertical lines in a graph is x = some number. To pass through the point (2, 6), x has to equal 2, since the point's x-coordinate is 2.
On the other hand, if the original line is vertical, our new line is horizontal, which is y = some number. Our point's y-coordinate is 6, so our line should be that y = 6.

The relation between two expressions that are not equal
Answer:
an inequality
Step-by-step explanation:
An inequality is the relation between two expressions that are not equal. The symbols generally used are less than (<) or greater than (>), as in:
4 > 3 or 4 < 9
That means that each side of the symbol represents a value that is different from the other side. The relationship is described with the sign to indicate which side has a greater value.
If both sides have an equal value, then it's an equation.
Vanessa has two bags that contain slips of paper. One bag has 4 slips of paper that are numbered 2, 3, 4, and 5. The other bag has 4 slips of paper that are numbered 3, 4, 5, and 6.
Vanessa chooses one slip of paper from each bag without looking.
The random variable X is the product of the numbers on the slips of paper.
What is P(12 ≤ X ≤ 15)?
Enter your answer, in simplest fraction form, in the box.
Answer:
5/16
Step-by-step explanation:
If Vanessa pulls out a 2 from the first bag, then the possibilities based on the second bag are:
X = 2*3 = 6
X = 2*4 = 8
X = 2*5 = 10
X = 2*6 = 12
Repeat this for the other values from the first bag. If she pulls a 3, the possibilities are:
X = 3*3 = 9
X = 3*4 = 12
X = 3*5 = 15
X = 3*6 = 18
If she pulls a 4:
X = 4*3 = 12
X = 4*4 = 16
X = 4*5 = 20
X = 4*6 = 24
And finally, if she pulls a 5:
X = 5*3 = 15
X = 5*4 = 20
X = 5*5 = 25
X = 5*6 = 30
Of the 16 total combinations, 5 are greater than or equal to 12 and less than or equal to 15.
Therefore, P(12 ≤ X ≤ 15) = 5/16.

Is the square root of 8 a rational number
Answer:
No.
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of an integer is rational only if that integer is a square number. The closest squares to 8 are 2^2 = 4 and 3^2 = 9. 8 is not a square number, so has an irrational square root.
The square root of 8 is an irrational number.
Explanation:A square root is a mathematical operation that, when applied to a number, finds a value that, when multiplied by itself, equals the original number. For example, the square root of 25 is 5 because 5 x 5 = 25. It is denoted by the √ symbol. Whether the square root of 8 is a rational number or not can be determined by finding the square root and checking if it can be expressed as a fraction.
The square root of 8 is approximately 2.828, which is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a fraction. To further prove that it is irrational, we can use the prime factorization method and show that 8 does not have a perfect square factor.

A regular polygon is defined to be a(n) _____ polygon with congruent sides and congruent angles
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A regular polygon is defined to be a convex polygon with congruent sides and congruent angles.
Convex means that all interior angles are less than 180 degrees. However, if all interior angles are equal, the polygon has to be convex.
Final answer:
A regular polygon is a convex shape with sides and angles that are all congruent, exemplified by the faces of an icosahedron or an equilateral triangle.
Explanation:
A regular polygon is defined to be a convex polygon with congruent sides and congruent angles. This means that all sides are the same length and all interior angles are equal in measure, which contributes to the polygon's symmetry. As an example from three-dimensional geometry, an icosahedron is a symmetrical, solid shape with 20 faces, each of which is an equilateral triangle.

BRAINLIEST AND 30 POINTS FOR WHOEVER CAN EXPLAIN HOW TO GET THESE ANSWERS...
Given: △ACM, m∠C=90°, CP⊥ AM. AP=9 cm, PM=16 cm.
Explain how to get these answers: AC = 15, CM = 20, CP = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Since m∠ACM = 90°, then by angle addition, m∠ACP + m∠PCM = 90°.Since CP⊥ AM, then by definition of perpendicular, m∠APC = 90°. Since angles of a triangle add up to 180°, that means m∠PAC + m∠ACP = 90°.By substitution, m∠PCM = m∠PAC.Since m∠PCM + m∠CMP = 90°, then by substitution, m∠CMP = m∠PAC.Therefore, by AAA, △ACP and △CMP are similar.Having proven that the triangles are similar, we can write the proportion:
AP / CP = CP / MP
9 / CP = CP / 16
CP² = 144
CP = 12
Now, we can simply use Pythagorean theorem to find the other sides.
AC² = AP² + CP²
AC² = 9² + 12²
AC = 15
CM² = CP² + PM²
CM² = 12² + 16²
CM = 20
Which statements are true about the fully simplified product of (b-2c)(-3b c) ?
Select two options.
( 1 )The simplified product has 2 terms.
( 2 )The simplified product has 4 terms.
( 3 )The simplified product has a degree of 2.
( 4 )The simplified product has a degree of 3.
( 5 )The simplified product has a degree of 4.
( 6 )The simplified product, in standard form, has exactly 2 negative terms.
The fully simplified product of (b-2c)(-3bc) has 2 terms and a degree of 3. The number of negative terms in the simplified product depends on the values of b and c, which are not provided.
Explanation:When simplifying the expression (b-2c)(-3bc), we use the distributive property to multiply each term in the first parenthesis by each term in the second parenthesis. However, since the two terms -2c and -3bc will multiply to produce a term with a higher degree than b times -3bc, the simplified expression does not have 4 terms, but rather only 2 terms. The correct simplified form is -3b^2c + 6c^2. There are two terms, and the highest degree of any term, which is the sum of the exponents of the variables in that term, is 3 (b^2c having degree 3, since 2+1=3).
Therefore, the correct statements about the fully simplified product of (b-2c)(-3bc) are:
The simplified product has 2 terms.The simplified product has a degree of 3.The simplified product, in standard form, does not have exactly 2 negative terms, as its terms will depend on the signs of b and c which are not specified.
