If the points A(x,2), B(-3, -4) and C(7, -5) are collinear, then find the value of x

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -63

Step-by-step explanation:

If the points A(x,2), B(-3, -4), and C(7, -5) are collinear, the line that passes B and C, also passes A.

The line passes B and C has the form of y = ax + b

=> -4  = a(-3) + b

    -5  = a(7) + b

=> Subtraction 1st equation from 2nd equation, we have:

    -1 = 10a

=> a = -1/10

=> b = -4 + 3(-1/0) = -43/10

=> This line has form of y = (-1/10)x -43/10

This line passes A(x, 2)

=> 2 = (-1/10)x - 43/10

=> 2 + 43/10 = (-1/10)x

=> 63/10 = (-1/10)x

=> x = -63

Hope this helps!

1. Tickets to a dance performance cost $9 for adults and $5 for kids. A group purchased 15 tickets and spent a total of $91. Which of the following is a true statement?
a. The group purchased 4 adult tickets.
b. The group purchased 9 kid’s tickets.
c. Both a and b are true.
d. Neither a nor b are true.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the cost of an adult ticket by 4 which is 36 and then subtract it from 91 you will get 55. You will see that 55 is divisible by 5 so you get 11kids

A gumball machine contains three yellow, eight blue, and six pink gumballs. What is the probability that the next gumball that comes out will be neither yellow nor blue?

show work pls tnx!

Answers

Answer:

total balls in the Machine = 7+5+4 = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD-1

Probability of First ball to be Blue = 7/(7+5+4) = 7/16

Probability of Second ball to be Green = 5/(15) = 5/15 [15 balls remaining after one being taken out in Step 1]

Probability of Third ball to be red = 4/(14) = 4/14 [14 balls remaining after Two being taken out in Step 1&2]

But this can happen in any order so the orders in which it can happen = 3!

i.e. Final Probability that machine dispenses one gumball of each color = (7/16)*(5/15)*(4/14)*3! = 1/4

Answer: Option E

METHOD-2

The total ways in which three balls can be Picked out of a total of 16 balls (with orders) = 16*15*14 = 840

The ways in which three balls of different colors can be taken out (with orders) = 7*5*4*3! = 3360

Probability = Favourable Outcome / Total Outcomes

i.e Probability = 840 / 3360 = 1/4

Answer: Option E

METHOD-3

The total ways in which three balls can be Picked out of a total of 16 balls (without orders) = 16C3 = 560

The ways in which three balls of different colors can be taken out (with orders) = 7C1 * 5C1 *4C1 = 140

Probability = Favourable Outcome / Total Outcomes

i.e Probability = 140 / 560 = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

A designer wants to create a whisper chamber in the shape of an ellipse. He has a warehouse space with a longest length of 50 yards, which he decides will be the major axis of his elliptical chamber. He determines the best spots for his guests to stand to experience his whisper chamber will be 10 yards from the center of the warehouse space, which will act as the foci. How far out from the center, along the minor axis should he build out his whisper chamber?


53.9 yd

45.8 yd

26.9 yd

22.9 yd

Answers

Answer:

22.9 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Since b² = a² - c² where a = vertex of major axis, 2a = 50 yards the length of the major axis. So , a = 50/2 = 25 yards. c = focus of chamber = 10 yards from center and b = vertex of minor axis.

So, b = ±√(a² - c²)

= ±√(25² - 10²)

= ±√(625 - 100)

= ±√525

= ±22.91 yards

≅ ± 22.9 yards

Since b = length of minor axis from center of chamber = 22.91 yards. So, he should build the whisper chamber 22.9 yards out from the center of the chamber.

The door to your bathroom has never closed well. In fact, every time you try to use the bathroom, the cats bust open the door because it simply won’t latch. You look at the door and it appears that the door frame is slightly tilted. The person who built your house claims that can’t be true because he measured your door frame and found it be an exact right angle. He claims what you’re seeing is an optical illusion. If you knew the door frame measurements were as pictured to the right, did the builder install your door frame correctly at a right angle?

Answers

If the door was at the right angle then that means it is not an optical illusion, but if the door is straight then that means the door is not at a right angle so it's an optical illusion.

Two opposite sides of a parallelogram are 3x-8 and 10x+13. Find the measure of all sides

Answers

Answer:

The measure of each angle of the parallelogram.

37∘ , 143∘ , 37∘ , 143∘.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal. Therefore,

3x − 2=50 − x⇒x = 13

(3x−2)∘ = 3(13)−2 = 37∘

The measures of the adjacent angles of a parallelogram add up to be 180 degrees, or they are supplementary.

Another angle = 180−37=143∘

The measure of each angle of the parallelogram.

37∘ , 143∘ , 37∘ , 143∘

The temperature falls from 0 degrees to Negative 12 and one-fourth degrees in 3 and one-half hours. Which expression finds the change in temperature per hour?

Answers

Answer:

The expression used to find the change in temperature per hour is Algebraic expression

Thus per hour; the temperature falls at the rate of [tex]- 3\dfrac{1}{2}^0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A temperature falls from 0 to  [tex]- 12\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]     in     [tex]3\dfrac{1}{2} \ hours[/tex]

Which expression finds the change in temperature per hour.

From the above given information;

The initial temperature is 0

The final temperature is  [tex]- 12\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]  

The change in temperature is [tex]\Delta T = T_2 - T_1[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T = -12\dfrac{1}{4} -0[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T = -12.25[/tex]

Thus;

-12.25 ° = 3.5 hours

To find the change in x°   per hour; we have;

x°            = 1 hour

The expression used to find the change in temperature per hour is Algebraic expression

From above if we cross multiply ; we have;

(- 12.25° × 1 hour) = (x° × 3.5 hour)

Divide both sides by 3.5 hours; we have:

[tex]\dfrac{-12.25^0*1 }{3.5}=\dfrac{ x^0 *3.5}{3.5}[/tex]

x° =  - 3.5

x° = [tex]- 3\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Thus per hour; the temperature falls at the rate of [tex]- 3\dfrac{1}{2}^0[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2 point questions, y = 3 point questions

x + y = 40

2x + 3y = 92

Solving this we get x = 28, y = 12 so the answer is 28.

Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of 2 mark questions

Let y be the number of 3 mark questions

x+y=40. ---------------(1)

2x+3y=92 ---------------(2)

Solve equation (1) for y

y=40−x

y=40−x in equation (2)

2x+3(40−x)=92

2x+120−3x=92

2x−3x=92−120

−x=−28

x=28

Substitute

x=28 in equation (1)

28+y=40

y=40−28=12
