The shorter leg of a right triangle is 5 meters. The hypotenuse is 1 meter longer than the longer leg. Find the
length of the longer leg.
The other leg is
meters.

Answers

Answer 1

Answers:

longer leg = 12 meters

hypotenuse = 13 meters

==========================================================

Explanation:

Let's say the triangle has sides a,b,c such that a < b < c

a = 5 = short legb = unknown long legc = b+1 = hypotenuse

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve for b

[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\\\5^2 + b^2 = (b+1)^2\\\\25 + b^2 = b^2+2b+1\\\\25 + b^2-b^2-2b-1 = 0\\\\-2b+24 = 0\\\\-2b = -24\\\\b = -24/(-2)\\\\b = 12[/tex]

The longer leg is 12 meters in length.

c = b+1 = 12+1 = 13

The hypotenuse is 13 meters long.

We have a 5-12-13 right triangle.

What is the vertex of the graph of this function

Answers

Answer:

y=-(x+2)(x+4)

y=-(x^2+4x+2x+8)

y=-(x^2+6x+8)

There are 165 children taking swimming lessons at the pool. If 10 children will be assigned to each instructor, how many instructors are needed?

Answers

17 but one will have only 5 children

Answer:

17 instructors

Step-by-step explanation:

If each instructor will get 10 children, we have to divided the total number of children taking swimming lessons by the number of children assigned to each instructor (10):

165/10 = 16.5

Unfortunately, we can't have 16 and a half instructors. Since 5 children are remaining, we can round up 16.5 to 17 and get 17 instructors. This implies that 16 instructors will teach 10 children (160 in total) and 1 instructor will teach 5 children (5 in total). 160+5 = 165 total children.

a(t) = [tex]t^{2}[/tex] − 4t + 5, s(0) = 0, s(1) = 20

How do I find s(t)=?

Answers

Recall that

[tex]\dfrac{dv(t)}{dt} = a(t) \Rightarrow dv(t) = a(t)dt[/tex]

Integrating this expression, we get

[tex]\displaystyle v(t) = \int a(t)dt = \int(t^2 - 4t + 5)dt[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:= \frac{1}{3}t^3 - 2t^2 + 5t + C_1[/tex]

Also, recall that

[tex]\dfrac{ds(t)}{dt} = v(t)[/tex] or

[tex]\displaystyle s(t) = \int v(t)dt = \int (\frac{1}{3}t^3 - 2t^2 + 5t + C_1)dt[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:= \frac{1}{12}t^4 - \frac{2}{3}t^3 + \frac{5}{2}t^2 + C_1t + C_2[/tex]

Next step is to find [tex]C_1\:\text{and}\:C_2[/tex]. We know that at t = 0, s = 0, which gives us [tex]C_2 = 0[/tex]. At t = 1, s = 20, which gives us

[tex]s(1) = \frac{1}{12}(1)^4 - \frac{2}{3}(1)^3 + \frac{5}{2}(1)^2 + C_1(1)[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{1}{12} - \frac{2}{3} + \frac{5}{2} + C_1 = \frac{23}{12} + C_1 = 20[/tex]

or

[tex]C_1 = \dfrac{217}{12}[/tex]

Therefore, s(t) can be written as

[tex]s(t) = \frac{1}{12}t^4 - \frac{2}{3}t^3 + \frac{5}{2}t^2 + \frac{217}{12}t[/tex]

Three numbers form an arithmetic sequence whose
common difference is 3. If the first number is
increased by 1, the second increased by 6, and
the third increased by 19, the resulting three

the original three numbers.

Answers

Let x be the first number in the sequence. Then the first three numbers are

{x, x + 3, x + 6}

The next sentence says that the sequence

{x + 1, x + 9, x + 25}

is geometric, which means there is some fixed number r for which

x + 9 = r (x + 1)

x + 25 = r (x + 9)

Solve for r :

r = (x + 9)/(x + 1) = (x + 25)/(x + 9)

Solve for x :

(x + 9)² = (x + 25) (x + 1)

x ² + 18x + 81 = x ² + 26x + 25

8x = 56

x = 7

Then the three numbers are

Answers

Answer:

  (11, -13)

Step-by-step explanation:

If midpoint M is halfway between A and B:

  M = (A +B)/2

Then B is ...

  B = 2M -A

  B = 2(4, -9) -(-3, -5) = (8+3, -18+5)

  B = (11, -13)

Answer:

Use the midpoint formula:

[tex]midpoint=(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2})[/tex]

Endpoint A = (x₁, y₁) = (-3, -5)Endpoint B = (x₂, y₂)Midpoint = (4, -9)

Substitute in the values:

[tex](4, -9)=(\frac{-3+x_{2}}{2} +\frac{-5+y_{2}}{2} )[/tex]

[tex]4=\frac{-3+x_{2}}{2} \\4(2)=-3+x_{2}\\8+3=x_{2}\\x_{2}=11[/tex]      [tex]-9=\frac{-5+y_{2}}{2} \\(-9)(2)=-5+y_{2}\\-18+5=y_{2}\\y_{2}=-13[/tex]

The following three shapes are based only on squares, semi circles, and quarter circles. Find the perimeter in the area of each shaded part

Answers

Answer: 46.26

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a square the sides are all the same, and since it’s a half circle, the dashed line is the diameter of the circle. To find the circumference on a circle, the equation is diameter times pi. 3.14 is commonly used for pi which is what I’m using 3.14, but of you are told to use a different number use that. 9*3.14 is 28.26. Since ther are exactly two half circles in the diameter, here’s no point in dividing by 2. The rest of the perimeter are just 2 sides of the square. So 9+9+28.26 is 46.26.

Consider a study conducted to determine the average protein intake among an adult population. Suppose that a confidence level of 85% is required with an interval about 10 units wide . If a preliminary data indicate a standard deviation of 20g . What sample of adults should be selected for the study?​

Answers

Answer:

With an ageing population, dietary approaches to promote health and independence later in life are needed. In part, this can be achieved by maintaining muscle mass and strength as people age. New evidence suggests that current dietary recommendations for protein intake may be insufficient to achieve this goal and that individuals might benefit by increasing their intake and frequency of consumption of high-quality protein. However, the environmental effects of increasing animal-protein production are a concern, and alternative, more sustainable protein sources should be considered. Protein is known to be more satiating than other macronutrients, and it is unclear whether diets high in plant proteins affect the appetite of older adults as they should be recommended for individuals at risk of malnutrition. The review considers the protein needs of an ageing population (>40 years old), sustainable protein sources, appetite-related implications of diets high in plant proteins, and related areas for future research.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given f(x)=ln(1+x)-x+(1/2)x^2.

We are first ask to differentiate this.

We will need chain rule for first term and power rule for all three terms.

f'(x)=(1+x)'/(1+x)-(1)+(1/2)×2x

f'(x)=(0+1)/(1+x)-(1)+x

f'(x)=1/(1+x)-(1)+x

We are then ask to prove if x is positive then f is positive.

I'm thinking they want us to use the derivative part in our answer.

Let's look at the critical numbers.

f' is undefined at x=-1 and it also makes f undefined.

Let's see if we can find when expression is 0.

1/(1+x)-(1)+x=0

Find common denominator:

1/(1+x)-(1+x)/(1+x)+x(1+x)/(1+x)=0

(1-1-x+x+x^2)/(1+x)=0

A fraction can only be zero when it's numerator is.

Simplify numerator equal 0:

x^2=0

This happens at x=0.

This means the expression,f, is increasing or decreasing after x=0. Let's found out what's happening there. f'(1)=1/(1+1)-(1)+1=1/2 which means after x=0, f is increasing since f'>0 after x=0.

So we should see increasing values of f when we up the value for x after 0.

Plugging in 0 gives: f(0)=ln(1+0)-0+(1/2)0^2=0.

So any value f, after this x=0, should be higher than 0 since f(0)=0 and f' told us f in increasing after x equals 0.
