Answer 1

The measure of the length MP is equal to 6.

What are similar triangles?

Two triangles are similar triangles if they have the same corresponding angle measures and proportional side lengths.

Given is a triangle ΔOMN.

Now, ΔOMN and ΔOPQ are similar. This means that the side lengths are proportional to each other. We can write -

OP/OM = PQ/MN

12/OM = PQ/MN

12/(OP + PM) = PQ/MN

It is given that -

PQ = MP + 2

12/(OP + PM) = (MP + 2)/MN

12MN = (MP + 2)(OP + PM)

12 x 12 = (MP + 2)(MP + 12)

(MP)² + 12MP + 2MP + 24 = 144

(MP)² + 14(MP) - 120 = 0

Let MP = x, then we can write -

x² + 14x - 120 = 0

(x + 20)(x - 6) = 0

(x + 20) = 0   and    (x - 6) = 0

x = - 20   and   x = 6

x = 6      {Lengths cannot be negative}

Therefore, the measure of the length MP is equal to 6.

How to complete the table of this absolute function?

Based on the information provided, we have the following absolute function:

f(x) = |-2x + 4|

When x = 6, the value of the absolute function is given by;

f(6) = |-2(6) + 4|

f(6) = |-12 + 4|

f(6) = |-8|

f(6) = 8

When x = -1, the value of the absolute function is given by;

f(-1) = |-2(-1) + 4|

f(-1) = |2 + 4|

f(-1) = |6|

f(-1) = -6.

When the value of the absolute function y = 4 is given by;

4 = |-2x + 4|

±4 = -2x + 4

2x = 4 ± 4

2x = 8

x = 4 or 0.

When the value of the absolute function y = 14 is given by;

What is logarithm?

A logarithm is a mathematical function that describes the relationship between a number and its exponent. It is the inverse operation of exponentiation. Logarithms are typically written as log base b, where b is the base of the logarithm and is a positive number.

The logarithm of a number x to base b is denoted as [tex]logb(x)[/tex] and it is the exponent to which we need to raise the base b in order to get the number x.

For example, if we are given [tex]log10(100) = 2[/tex], this means that [tex]10^2 = 100[/tex].

The equation [tex]6^x * 6 * 6[/tex] can be rewritten as [tex]6^x * 6^2[/tex].

To convert 6^x to ax form, we need to take the logarithm of both sides of the equation:

[tex]log(6^x) = log(6^2)[/tex]

And we can simplify the equation as:

[tex]xlog(6) = 2log(6)[/tex]

So, the value of a is log(6) and the value of x is 2.

Therefore, the equation can be rewritten as:

[tex]ax^4 = (log(6))(2^4)[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]a = log(6)\ and\ x=2[/tex]

1,000 yards to kilometers

Answers

1000 yards in kilometers will be 0.9 km.

The yard is a United States customary measurement. In this form of measurement, we have yards, feet, and inches.

1 Yard = 3 feet.

1 foot = 12 inches.

Here we are given 1000 yards,

1000 yards = 3 X 1000 feet

= 3000 feet

= 36000 inches.

Now, converting this to the metric measures we know that

1 inch = 2.5 cm

Hence, 36000 inches = 90000 cm.

1 cm = 1/100 m

Hence, 90000 cm = 90000/100 m

= 900 m

1 m = 1/1000 km

Hence, 900 m = 900/1000 km

= 0.9 km

Hence, 1000 yeard = 0.9 km.

Answers

Answer:

1.25 hours or 1 hour and 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

15 minutes equates to 1/5 of the rides

So, we multiply 15 by 5 to find the total time taken to ride all the rides.

15 x 5 = 75

75/60 = 1.25

It would take him 1.25 hours to ride all the rides at the carnival or 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Answers

All that is the equivalent angle to the given angle sin∠GFH is cos∠GEJ.

Corresponding angles are those angles which are created in the matching corners or corresponding corners with the transversal when two parallel lines are intersected by any other line (i.e. the transversal).

From the image, we get JE and HF are parallel.

So ∠GFH and ∠GEJ are corresponding angles. That means they are equal.

⇒sin(∠GFH) = sin(∠GEJ).

From triangle GFH, ∠GFH + ∠FGH = 90.

⇒sin(∠GFH) = cos(∠FGH).

Again ∠FGH = ∠EGJ.

⇒sin(∠GFH) = cos(∠EGJ)

All that is equivalent to sin∠GFH is cos(∠EGJ).

Thus, the correct answer is D.

The left arrow represents adding 2 units to 0. The right arrow represents adding -4 units to +2, or subtracting 4 units from +2. The equation could be written as ...

The bill is 42 dollars, taxes is 9%, and the tip given is 18%. What's the Total?

Answers

The total cost of the bill that sells for $42 is $54.0204

How to determine the total cost of the bill?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Cost of the bill = $42

Sales tax = 9%

Tip = 18%

The total cost of the bill that sells for $42 is then calculated as

Total cost = Selling price * (1 + Sales tax) * (1 + tip)

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

Total cost = 42 * (1 + 9%) * (1 + 18%)

Evaluate

Total cost = $54.0204

Hence, the total cost is $54.0204

Therefore, an isosceles triangle has two equal sides as well as two equal angles. The Greek words iso (same) and Skelos are the source of the name (leg). An equilateral triangle is one in which all of its sides are equal, whereas a scalene triangle is one in which none of its sides are equal.

An isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides that are longer than the length of the base

equation is 2a+b=15.7

so if the longer side is 6.3

we know that identical sides are bigger so 6.3 is one of the identical sides

2a means the 2 identical sides

0.45 3.04

0.75 5.06

1.25 11.81

Where

the number of pounds of candy = p the cost of candy = c

The values in the p column represent the domain

In this case, the domain is

Domain = [0.25, 1.25]

The values in the c column represent the range

In this case, the range is

Range = [1.69, 11.81]

This means that the options (a), (b) and (e) are false

For option (c), we have

c = 6.75p

This means that

c = 6.75 * 0.25 = 1.69

c = 6.75 * 0.45 = 3.04

c = 6.75 * 0.75 = 5.06
