Answer: IX - 4I ≤ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In the numer line we can see that our possible values of x are in the range:

0 ≤ x ≤ 8

And we want to find an absolute value equation such that this set is the set of possible solutions.

An example can be:

IX - 4I ≤ 4

To construct this, we first find the midpoint M of our set, in this case is 4.

Then we write:

Ix - MI ≤ IMI

Notice that i am using the minor and equal sign, this is because the black dots means that the values x = 0 and x = 8 are included, if the dots were empty dots, it would be an open set and we should use the < > signs.

Ethan sells e candy bars for $2.50 apiece and Chloe sells c candy bars for $2.00 apiece to raise

natta225 [31]

2.50x = Ethan’s total sold -6 (15/2.50=6)
2x = Chloe’s total sold
2.50(12) = 30 - 6 = 24
2(12) = 24
They both sold 12 candy bars

Byron has 1 7/10 kilograms of black pepper. He uses 7/8 of the black pepper and splits between 7 pepper shakers. How much pepper

IrinaVladis [17]

Amount of black pepper = 1 7/10 kg = 17/10 kg.
Amount used is
(7/8)*(17/10) = 119/80 kg

This amount is split between 7 shakers. Each shaker has
(119/80)/7 = 17/80 kg = 0.2125 kg

Answer: 17/80 kg (or 0.2125 kg)

If quadrilateral PQRS is a rectangle, then which of the following is true?

brilliants [131]

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR is the True statement ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

In any rectangle

1. Each two opposite sides are equal and parallel

2. The measure of its vertex angles is 90°

3. The two diagonals are equal

Now lets find the true statements

∵ PQRS is a rectangle

∴ PS = QR ⇒ opposite sides

∴ PQ = SR ⇒ opposite sides

∴ PR = QS ⇒ diagonals

A. ∠PSQ ≅ ∠QSR

∵ The diagonals of the rectangle do not bisect the vertex angles

∴ AQ does not bisect angle S

∴ m∠PSQ ≠ m∠QSR

∴ ∠PSQ not congruent ∠QSR

∠PSQ ≅ ∠QSR ⇒ False

B. segment SR ≅ segment RQ

∵ SR and RQ are two adjacent sides

∵ The adjacent side in the rectangle not equal

∴ SR ≠ QR

∴ segment SR not congruent to segment RQ

segment SR ≅ segment RQ ⇒ False

C. ∠STP ≅ ∠QTR

∵ PR intersects QS at point T

∴ m∠STP = m∠QTR ⇒ vertically opposite angles

∴ ∠STP ≅ ∠QTR

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR ⇒ True

D. segment PS ≅ segment PR

∵ PS is a side in the rectangle

∵ PR is a diagonal in the rectangle

∵ The side of the rectangle not equal the diagonal of the rectangle

∴ PS ≠ PR

∴ segment PS not congruent to segment PR

segment PS ≅ segment PR ⇒ False

∠STP ≅ ∠QTR is the True statement

Answer 0.1 is equal to or less than 5.00 plz hurry up!

Wittaler [7]

Yes, 0.1 is less than 5.00.

5.00 is a whole number, while 0.1 is less than that, so yes, you were correct.

Have a nice day! :)

From Tony's seat in the classroom, his eyes are 1.0 m above ground. On the wall 4.2 m away, he can see the top of a blackboard t

Semmy [17]

Answer:

15 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a horizontal segment approximately 4 inches long. Label the right endpoint A and the left endpoint C. Label the length of AC 4.2 meters. That is the horizontal distance between the eye and the blackboard.

At the right endpoint, A, draw a vertical segment going up, approximately 1 inch tall. Label the upper point E, for eye. Label segment EA 1 meter since the eye is 1 meter above ground.

At the left endpoint of the horizontal segment, point C, draw a vertical segment going up approximately 2 inches. Label the upper point B for blackboard. Connect points E and B. Draw one more segment. From point E, draw a horizontal segment to the left until it intersects the vertical segment BC. Label the point of intersection D.

The angle of elevation you want is angle BED.

The length of segment BC is 2.1 meters. The length of segment CD is 1 meter. That means that the length of segment BD is 1.1 meters.

To find the measure of angle BED, we can use the opposite leg and the adjacent leg and the inverse tangent function.

BD = 1.1 m

DE = 4.2 m

tan <BED = opp/adj

tan <BED = 1.1/4.2

m<BED = tan^-1 (1.1/4.2)

m<BED = 15

Answer: 15 degrees
