Sofia cuts a piece in the shape of a kite for an art project

top two sides measure 20 cm each

bottom two sides measure 13 cm each.

One diagonal, EG, measures 24 cm

Find out the length of the other diagonal, DF.

explanation-

DE = EF = 20cm

DG = GF = 13cm

EG = 24cm

DF = ?

In kite shape

One diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other diagonal.

i.e EG is the perpendicular bisector of DF

i.e EG is divided into two equal parts

thus EA = AG = 12cm

in Δ EAF

By applying the pythagorus theorem

we have

EF² = FA²+ EA²

20² = 12² + FA²

400 -144 = FA²

256 =FA²

16cm = FA

Now in Δ DAG

DG² = AG² + DA²

13² = 12 ²+ DA²

169 -144 = DA²

25 = DA²

5cm = DA

Felipe planted some seeds for a science project. One of his plants grew 6 2/7 inches in the first week, and then it grew 5 11/14

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

<em>The plant grew </em> $12\frac{1}{14}$ <em> inches</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Operations with Fractions</u>

Felipe planted seeds for a science project. One of the plants grew 6 2/7 inches in the first week and 5 11/14 inches in the second week.

We are required to find the total growth during the two weeks. We have to find the sum of:

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}$

Let's convert both fractions to improper form:

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}=6+\frac{2}{7}+5+\frac{11}{14}$

Adding the integers:

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}=11+\frac{2}{7}+\frac{11}{14}$

Now we find the LCM of 7 and 14 is 14, thus:

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}=11+\frac{4}{14}+\frac{11}{14}$

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}=11+\frac{15}{14}=11+\frac{14+1}{14}$

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}=11+1+\frac{1}{14}$

$6\frac{2}{7}+5\frac{11}{14}=12+\frac{1}{14}$

Rewriting as a mixed number:

The plant grew $12\frac{1}{14}$ inches

In the year 2000, the population of a city was 600,000 citizens. The population increases at a rate of 1.8% per year.

Alona [7]

Y=600000(1+1.8%)^(x-2000)
So the population in 2012
Y=600,000×(1+0.018)^(2,012−2,000)
Y=743,232

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between the graph of f(x)g(x) and g(x)=f(x−7)?

Lelu [443]

G(x) would have to be -->7 units.
The relationship between f(x) and s(x) where s(x)=af(x-b)+z is that g(x) is f(x) stretched by the reciprocal of a, b is the liar (all x values go up if b goes down and visa versa), and it moves up z units.
