One half of the opposite of a number is five less than twenty.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: -1/2x =20-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an expression with the information given:

One half of the opposite of a number; a number is the variable (x), the opposite is -x, and one half of that number is equal to the number multiplied by 1/2. (-1/2x)

Is five less than twenty: the previous expression is equal to 20 minus 5:

Mathematically speaking:

-1/2x =20-5

In a quadrilateral A B C D angle d is
equal to 150° and angle a = angle b=angle c
Eind angle A, angle b, and angle c​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ∠A = x

Therefore, ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = x

The sum of all angles of a quadrilateral is 360

∠D + ∠A + ∠B + ∠C =360

150 +x + x + x =360

150 + 3x = 360

3x = 360 - 150

3x = 210

x = 210/3

x = 70

∠A = ∠B = ∠C = x = 70°

At a zoo, youth tickets cost $5 and adult tickets cost $9. A group that purchased x youth tickets and y adult tickets spent $90 on tickets. What is the domain of the relationship

Answers

Answer:

0 ≤ x ≤ 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number of youth tickets purchased at the zoo and 'y' be the number of adult tickets purchased at the zoo.

At a zoo, youth tickets cost $5 and adult tickets cost $9. A group spent a total of $90 on tickets. We can write as

5x + 9y = 90

to find x we divide both side by 5

x = (90-9y)/5 =>  90/5 - 9y/5

x = 18 - 9y/5

The domain of the relationship is the possible set of values of x and y that satisfies the equation. The domain of this relationship is

0 ≤ x ≤ 18

At x = 0, it means only adult tickets were purchased.

At x = 18, it means only youth tickets were purchased.

Answer:

0 ≤ x ≤ 18

What is a number line?

Integers are arranged at equal intervals along horizontal straight lines called number lines. A number line can be used to represent every number in a series. The endpoints of this line go on forever.

This refers to those as closed number lines. Number lines might be alternatively left empty or blank.

In the number line, negative numbers represent leftward distances. The product of a negative number and a positive number will be equal to the distance of the negative one by the number of times such distance is repeated.

The procedure is described as follows:

Draw the distance of the first negative number then Extend the distance by the magnitude of the second negative number.

And Draw the distance of the reflection of the result found in 2.

the answer is D just trust me lol

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

I don’t know how to explain this to you step by step but when it comes to questions like this try to think more “logically” (if that makes sense) especially if you’re not familiar with the topic, like me. Think about it, if it was the first one the line on the graph would be above the middle line (its addition plus its greater than y so that wouldn’t be correct). Now the second one is subtraction but its less than y and everything thats coloured goes up not down so it has to be greater than y. C is not the correct answer because its a regular equation and thats not what the question wants plus its the only question out of the the 4 answers which is completely the odd one out so you can just cancel that out. Mow we come to the last answer which is the correct answer because it follows all the right “points” I mentioned earlier. I hope this makes sense to you, sorry I couldn’t explain it better!

A steel hex nut has two regular hexagonal bases and a cylindrical hole with a diameter of 1.6 centimeters through the middle. The apothem of the hexagon is 2 centimeters. A cylinder is cut out of the middle of a hexagonal prism. The hexagon has an apothem with a length of 2 centimeters and base side lengths of 2.3 centimeters. The prism has a height of 2 centimeters. The cylinder has a diameter of 1.6 centimeters. The equation for the area of a regular hexagon = one-half (apothem) (perimeter). What is the volume of metal in the hex nut, to the nearest tenth?

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Diameter of the cylinder: d=1.6 cm

Apothem of the hexagon: a=2 cm

Assuming the thickness of the steel hex nut: t=2 cm

Volume of metal in the hex nut: V=?

Central angle in the hexagon: A=360°/n

A=360°/6

A=60°

Assuming that the person does not account for probability changes when counters are not replaced, the answer is 20 counters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the picture above.

Disclaimer: Probability is not used to deduce the question. The knowledge of fraction is used instead to avoid excess complexity.

Assuming the number of dabbed counters follow the ratio of 1/4 as deduced from the number of dabbed counters in 200 counters, you would expect the number of dabbed counters in 80 counters to follow the same ratio of 1/4. Hence the answer is 20.

A population of 100 frogs has a growth rate of 1.25% each month. At this growth rate,


the function f(x) = 100(1.25)* gives the population in x months. In how many months


will the population first reach 500?

Answers

Answer: 7.2 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to substitute f(x) =500 in the equation given:

f(x) = 100(1.25)^x

500= 100(1.25)^x

Solving for x (number of months)

500/100 = 1.25^x

5 = 1.25^x

log 5 =log 1.25^x

log 5 =x (log 1.25)

log 5 /log 1.25 =x

x = 7.2 months

Hyperbola Question:

Two neighbors who live one mile apart hear an explosion while they are talking on the telephone. One neighbor hears the explosion two seconds before the other. If sound travels at 1100 feet
per second, determine the equation of the hyperbola on which the explosion was located.

(i know the answer is
[tex] \frac{ {x}^{2} }{1210000} - \frac{y {}^{2} }{5759600} = 1[/tex]
but i don't understand how you get it)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{x^{2}}{1210000 } - \dfrac{y^{2}}{5759600} = 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A hyperbola is a curve for which the difference of the distances |d₂ - d₁| of any point P from the foci is constant.

The definition leads to the equation

[tex]\dfrac{x^{2}}{a^{2}} - \dfrac{y^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1[/tex]

1. Calculate the value of a²

Assume the neighbours are at the foci A and B.

The explosion is farther from B than from A, so it occurred on the right branch of the hyperbola.

Then AB = 1 mi = 5280 ft

and the distance from the focus to the y-axis is

c = 2640

The vertices are (±a,0).

The speed of sound is 1100 ft/s, so B is 2200 ft further from the explosion.  

The distance from A to the vertex V₁ is c - a. Then

AB = 2200 + 2(c - a) = 2200 -2(2640 - 2a) = 2200 +5280- 2a = 5280

2a = 2200

a = 1100

a² = 1 210 000

2. Calculate the value of b²

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}a^{2} + b^{2} & = & c^{2}\\1100^{2} + b^{2} & = & 2640^{2}\\b^{2} & = & 2640^{2} - 1100^{2}\\& = & 6969600 - 1210000\\& = & \mathbf{5759600}\\\end{array}[/tex]

3. Write the equation for the hyperbola

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{x^{2}}{1210000 } - \dfrac{y^{2}}{5759600}} = \mathbf{1}[/tex]

The equation of the hyperbola is [tex]\frac{x^2}{1210000} -\frac{y^2}{5759600^2} = 1[/tex]

How to determine the equation of the hyperbola

The equation of an hyperbola is represented as:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{a^2} -\frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1[/tex]

The given parameters are given as:

AB = 1 mile

a = 1100 feet

Express the distance AB as feet

AB = 5280 ft

So, the distance AB from the foci is:

[tex]c = \frac{AB}2[/tex]

This gives

[tex]c = \frac{5280}2[/tex]

[tex]c = 2640[/tex]

The value of b is calculated as:

[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]1100^2 + b^2 = 2640^2[/tex]

This gives

[tex]b^2 = 2640^2 -1100^2[/tex]

Evaluate

[tex]b^2 = 5759600[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{a^2} -\frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{1100^2} -\frac{y^2}{5759600^2} = 1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x^2}{1210000} -\frac{y^2}{5759600^2} = 1[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the hyperbola is [tex]\frac{x^2}{1210000} -\frac{y^2}{5759600^2} = 1[/tex]
