Answer:

not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

you can use the pythagorean theorem to prove whether not this is a right triangle

if this triangle is a right triangle then the following equality should be true

a²+b²=c²

(9.75)²+(3.45)²=(10.24)²

(95.06)+(11.90)=(104.86)

106.96≠104.86

since the following equality is not true, this is not a right triangle.

Show that the three points whose position vectors are 7j+ 10k,-i + 6j+6k and - 4i + +9j + 6k form an isosceles right
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

AB = √18 , BC=√18 and CA =4

AB²+BC²  = CA² and AB=BC

ΔABC isosceles right  angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vectors are  7j+ 10k,-i + 6j+6k and - 4i + +9j + 6k

A( 0,7,10), B( -1,6,6) C(-4,9,6)

AB⁻ = OB-OA = -I+6j+6k-(7j+10k) = -I-j-4k

AB = \sqrt{1+1+16} = \sqrt{18}

BC = OC-OB = -4i+9j+6k-(-I+6j+6k) = -3i+3j

BC=\sqrt{9+9} =\sqrt{18}

CA = OA-OC = 7j+10k - (- 4i + +9j + 6k ) = 4i-2j+4k

CA = \sqrt{16+4+16} =\sqrt{36} =4

Since AB²+BC²  = CA²

And AB=BC

Therefore it follows that ΔABC is a right angled isosceles triangle

. Over the next two days, Clinton Employment Agency is interviewing clients who wish to find jobs. On the first day, the agency
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Clients are interviewed in groups of 2 on the first day; meaning two persons at a time

Second day, clients are interviewed in groups of 4; meaning 4 persons at a time.

Therefore, if the same number of clients are to be interviewed on each day, the smallest number of clients that could be interviewed each day could be obtained by getting the Least Common Multiple of both numbers: 2 and 4

- - - - 2 - - - 4

2 - - - 1 - - - 2

2 - - - 1 - - - 1

Therefore, the Least common multiple is (2 * 2) = 4

Therefore, the smallest number of clients that could be interviewed each day is 4.

Which statement identifies how to show that j(x) = 11.6ex and k(x) = In (StartFraction x Over 11.6 EndFraction) are inverse func
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

<h2>It must be shown that both j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6}, to show that both equality functions are true, all we need to show is that both  j(k(x)) and k(j(x)) equal x,

For j(k(x));

j(k(x)) = j[(ln x/11.6)]

j[(ln (x/11.6)] = 11.6e^{ln (x/11.6)}

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6(x/11.6) (exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm)

j[(ln x/11.6)] = 11.6 * x/11.6

j[(ln x/11.6)] = x

Hence j[k(x)] = x

Similarly for k[j(x)];

k[j(x)] = k[11.6e^x]

k[11.6e^x] = ln (11.6e^x/11.6)

k[11.6e^x]  = ln(e^x)

exponential function will cancel out the natural logarithm leaving x

k[11.6e^x]  = x

Hence k[j(x)] = x

From the calculations above, it can be seen that j[k(x)] =  k[j(x)]  = x, this shows that the functions j(x) = 11.6e^x and k(x) = ln \dfrac{x}{11.6} are inverse functions.
