The height of a triangle is 4 cm more than twice its base. The area of the triangle is 168 cm^2. What is the length of the base of the triangle?

a) 12 cm
b) 6 cm
c) 7 cm
d) 14 cm

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

h = 2b + 4

Area = 168 cm²

b = ?

Area = b*h / 2

168 = b (2b + 4) / 2

168 = 2b² + 4b/ 2

168 = b² + 2b

b² + 2b - 168 = 0

(b + 14) (b - 12) = 0

b = -14

b = 12

The base of a triangle cannot be -ve. So b = 12cm

There are 20 black, 15 white, 12 green, 12 red, 9 blue and 2 yellow candies in a box. How many candies should you take (without looking at them) to be sure that you have at least 3 candies the same color?

Answers

Answer:  13

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

Explanation:

The best case scenario is that you get 3 of the same color in a row on the first three attempts. The lower bound is 3.

However, we have to consider the worst case scenario when we want to guarantee something like this, without looking at the candies we selected.

Consider the case of something like this sequence:

blackwhite greenredblueyellowblackwhitegreenredblueyellowblack

As you can see above, I've listed the colors in the order presented by your teacher. I pick one candy at a time. Once I reach yellow, I restart the cycle. In slots 1, 7 and 13, we have a black candy selected. This example shows that we must make 13 selections to guarantee that we get at least 3 candies of the same color (that color being black). The order of the candies selected doesn't matter. We could easily use any other color except yellow to do this example. The black candy just happened to be the first listed, so I went with that.

Note how we have 6 unique colors in the set {black, white, green, red, blue, yellow}. If we pick 2 candies of each color, then we've selected 6*2 = 12 candies so far. That 13th candy (some color other than yellow) is guaranteed to be a color we already selected; therefore, we'll be guaranteed to have 3 of the same color. We won't know what color it is but we will know we have a match like this.

Michael started a savings account. After 5 weeks, he had $340 dollars and after 9
weeks, he had $580. What is the rate of change of money in his savings account per
week?

Answers

Answer:

$60.00 in his savings account per week

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can convert the information given into points so we can more easily find the rate of change, or slope:

(5, 340) and (9, 580)

Then, we can subtract the y-values and x-values of both, then divide those differences, to find the slope. Remember that the change in y goes on top of the division problem and the change in x goes on the bottom of the division problem:

(580-340)/(9-5) = 240/4 = 60

So, $60 in his savings account per week.

Answer:

he saves 18.45 dollars in each week

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For obects already in motion, the distance travelled, s, is:

s = vi*t + (1/2)at^2

where vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and t is the time in seconds.

We want the time, t, to reach 1000 meters.

1000 m = (3 m/s)*t + (1/2)*(0.1m/s^2)*(t^2)

(1/2)*(0.1m/s^2)*(t^2) = 0.05t^2

0.05t^2 + 3t -1000 = 0

Solve quadratic equation:

A jumping spider's movement is modeled by a parabola. The spider makes a single jump from the origin and reaches a maximum height of 10 mm halfway across a horizontal distance of 80 mm.

Part A: Write the equation of the parabola in standard form that models the spider's jump. Show your work. (4 points)

Part B: Identify the focus, directrix, and axis of symmetry of the parabola. (6 points)

Answers

The spider's movement is an illustration of a parabola.

The equation of a parabola is: [tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{160}(x - 40) + 10}[/tex]The focus of a parabola is: (40,-30)The axis of symmetry is: [tex]\mathbf{x = 40}[/tex]The directrix is:[tex]\mathbf{y = 50}[/tex]

(a) The equation

The spider passes through the origin.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{(x,y) = (0,0)}[/tex]

The spider jumps to a maximum height of 10mm, midway 80mm.

So, the vertex is:

[tex]\mathbf{(h,k) = (40,10)}[/tex]

The equation of a parabola is:

[tex]\mathbf{y = a(x - h)^2 + k}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{0 = a(0 - 40)^2 + 10}[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides

[tex]\mathbf{a(0 - 40)^2 =- 10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{1600a =- 10}[/tex]

Solve for a

[tex]\mathbf{a =- \frac{1}{160}}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{a =- \frac{1}{160}}[/tex] and [tex]\mathbf{(h,k) = (40,10)}[/tex] in [tex]\mathbf{(h,k) = (40,10)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = -\frac{1}{160}(x - 40) + 10}[/tex]

(b) The focus, directrix and the axis of symmetry

The focus of a parabola is:

[tex]\mathbf{Focus= (h, k + p)}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\mathbf{p = \frac{1}{4a}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{p = \frac{1}{4 \times -1/160}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{p = -\frac{160}{4}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{p = -40}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (40,10-40)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Focus = (40,-30)}[/tex]

The axis of symmetry is:

[tex]\mathbf{x = h}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x = 40}[/tex]

The directrix is:

[tex]\mathbf{y = k - p}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = 10 + 40}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = 50}[/tex]
