Right now Jack’s age is greater than twice Fred’s age by 4. After 8 years, the sum of their ages is 59. Find Fred’s age.

Answers

Answer 1

Fred's age is 13 years

Let

Fred's age = x

Jack's age = 2x + 4

After 8 years:

Fred's age = x + 8Jack's age = 2x + 4 + 8

= 2x + 12

Sum of their ages = 59

Sum of their ages = Fred's age + Jack's age

59 = (x + 8) + (2x + 12)

59 = x + 8 + 2x + 12

59 = 3x + 20

59 - 20 = 3x

39 = 3x

x = 39/3

x = 13 years

Therefore, Fred's age = 13 years

On a baseball field, the pitcher's mound is 60.5 feet from home plate. During practice, a batter hits a ball 214 feet at an
angle of 36° to the right of the pitcher's mound. An outfielder catches the ball and throws it to the pitcher. Approximately
how far does the outfielder throw the ball?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  169 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines can be used to find the distance from the outfielder to the pitcher. It tells you for triangle ABC, the length of side c can be found from ...

  c² = a² +b² -2ab·cos(C)

Here, we hve a=60.5, b=214, and C=36°. Then the desired distance is ...

  c = √(60.5² +214² -2·60.5·214·cos(36°)) ≈ √28507.56 ≈ 168.84

The outfielder throws the ball about 169 feet.

"If the radius of the closed cone is doubled, show algebraically how this affects the surface area in comparison to the original cone."
How do I do this question?

Answers

Answer:

It would help to have the cone area formula:

Area = PI * radius * slant height

Let's say the height is 12cm radius is 5 cm

which makes the (slant height)^2 = 12^2 + 5^2 = 169

slant height = 13

and surface area = PI * 5 * 12 =  188.4955592154

If radius = 10 then (slant height)^2 = 12^2 + 10^2 = 244

slant height = 15.6204993518

surface area = PI * 10 * 15.62 = 376.99

376.99 / 188.4955 = 2

So, if radius is doubled, surface area is doubled.

Which is the formula
for the volume
of a cylinder?
A. V = a^2 + b^2 + c^2
B. V = (area of the base)(radius)
C. V = (area of the base)(height)

Answers

The answer is c!!! I think???

Answer:  C.  V = (area of the base)(height)

This applies to any prism. A cylinder is effectively a prism but the base is a circle rather than a polygon.

The cylindrical volume formula you may be more familiar with is

V = pi*r^2*h

note how the pi*r^2 portion is the area of the circular base. So we can replace the pi*r^2 with "area of the base" to end up with choice C.

Answers

Answer:

x=40

Step-by-step explanation:

If the large angle is bisected, the two smaller angles are equal

x+30 = 3x-50

Subtract x from each side

x+30 -x = 3x-50-x

30 = 2x-50

Add 50 to each side

30+50 = 2x-50+50

80 =2x

Divide by 2

80/2 = 2x/2

40 =x

Answer:

x = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

since line KN bisects that angle, the two parts are equal to each other:

(x+30) = (3x-50)

x + 30 = 3x - 50

-2x = -80

x = 40

you can even check it to see if both angles are equal to each other by substituting 40 for x:

(40 + 30) = (3*40 - 50)

70 = 70

this checks out, so the answer is correct

The general form of the equation of a circle is x^2+y^2+8x+22y+37=0

The equation of this circle in standard form is (x+__)^2+(y+__)^2=__. The center of the circle is at the point (__,__).

Answers

Answer:

We know that the equation of the circle in standard form is equal to (x-h)² + (y-k)² = r² where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

We have x² + y² + 8x + 22y + 37 = 0, let's get to the standard form :

1 - We first group terms with the same variable :

(x²+8x) + (y²+22y) + 37 = 0

2 - We then move the constant to the opposite side of the equation (don't forget to change the sign !)

(x²+8x) + (y²+22y) = - 37

3 - Do you recall the quadratic identities ? (a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b². Now that's what we are trying to find. We call this process "completing the square".

x²+8x = (x²+8x + 4²) - 4² = (x+4)² - 4²

y²+22y = (y²+22y+11²)-11² = (y+11)²-11²

4 - We plug the new values inside our equation :

(x+4)² - 4² + (y+22)² - 11² = -37

(x+4)² + (y+22)² = -37+4²+11²

(x+4)²+(y+22)² = 100

5 - We re-write in standard form :

(x-(-4)²)² + (y - (-22))² = 10²

And now it is easy to identify h and k, h = -4 and k = - 22 and the radius r equal 10. You can now complete the sentence :)

Step-by-step explanation:

ydu is not working in the past two days in my head of my head to be in town on your phone is to

Material of 32 feet with the person is not sufficient to cover the square garden.

Tristan wants to build a square garden having area = 75 square feet

Since, Area of a square is given by the expression,

Area = (Side)²

By substituting the value of area in the expression,

75 = (Side)²

√75 = √(Side)²

5√3 = Side

Side = 8.66 feet

Since, perimeter of a square is given by the expression,

Perimeter of a square = 4(side)

Therefore, Perimeter of the square garden = 4(8.66)

                                                                        = 34.64 feet

A person has a material of length = 32 feet

If the length of the material is enough to cover the square field,

Length of the material ≥ Perimeter of the garden  

32 feet ≥ 34.64 feet

Which is false.

      Therefore, material is not of enough length to cover the square garden.

Answers

ANSWER:
a. y=3x+2
b. y=-1/2x-1

find the y intercepts that fit with the coordinates and for a parallel line the slope stays the same, while for a perpendicular line the slope flips and turns into the opposite symbol.

We can write -

the equation of line that passes through the point (2,8) and is parallel to y=3x+10 is y = 3x + 2.the equation of line that passes through the point (-2,-5) and is perpendicular to the line -2x+y=9 is y = -x/2 + -3

What is the general equation of a straight line?

The general equation of a straight line is -

y = mx + c

where -

{m} is the slope of the line.

{c} is the {y} - intercept.

Given is that -

A line passes through the point (2,8) and is parallel to y=3x+10.A line passes through the point (-2,-5) and is perpendicular to the line -2x+y=9.

{ 1 } -

We can write the slope of the line as -

m = 3

The equation will be -

y = 3x + c

For the point (2, 8), we can write -

8 = 6 + c

c = 2

So, the equation of line that passes through the point (2,8) and is parallel to y=3x+10 is -

y = 3x + 2

{ 2 } -

We can write the slope of the line as -

m = -1/2

The equation will be -

y = -x/2 + c

For the point (- 2, - 5), we can write -

-5 = -2 + c

c = - 3

So, the equation of line that passes through the point (-2,-5) and is perpendicular to the line -2x+y=9 is -

y = -x/2 + -3

Therefore, we can write -

the equation of line that passes through the point (2,8) and is parallel to y=3x+10 is y = 3x + 2.the equation of line that passes through the point (-2,-5) and is perpendicular to the line -2x+y=9 is y = -x/2 + -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so

3x+10y=22

-3x-8y=-14

basically, it's like one big equation. First, subtract 3x from -3x which cancels out and gives us 010y minus 8y gives us 2y.22 minus 14 gives us 8

3x+10y=22

-3x-8y=-14

0+2y=8

Now that we have this, we can solve for y. in order to do this, we have to divide both sides by 2.

[tex] \frac{2y}{2} = \frac{8}{2} [/tex]

From here we know that y=4 because the 2s cancel out leaving y and 8 divided by 2 is 4.

y= 4

Now we can fill in. You can pick any equation for this but I'm going to chose the first one.

3x+10y=22

we can fill in 4 for y

3x+10(4)=22

3x+40=22

Next we are going to subtract 40 on both sides.

3x+40=22

-40 -40

3x= -18

Next, we're going to divide -18 by 3.

[tex] \frac{3x}{3} = \frac{ - 18}{3} [/tex]

The 3s cancel out leaving us x. -18 divided by 3 is -6.

x= -6
