Amy is helping plan her school's new basketball court. The west edge of the basketball court is located on the line y = 2x + 5.

The east edge cannot intersect with the west edge. On which line could the east edge be located?
2x − y = 96
−2x − y = 96
−y − 2x = 48
y + 2x = 48

Answer:

Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96

So, Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The east edge cannot intersect with the west edge means that two lines are parallel.

If the two lines are parallel then they have same slope. We need to find the slopes of given lines and check which line has slope same as slope of west edge.

Slope of west edge.

y = 2x + 5

The standard equation for slope intercept form is:

y = mx+b

where m is the slope. So, m= 2

Now finding line for east edge.

Option 1.

Convert each given equation to standard slope intercept form and find the slope.

2x -y =96

-y = -2x +96

Multiply with -1

y = 2x -96

m = 2

Option 2.

-2x -y = 96

-y = 2x +96

y = -2x-96

m = -2

Option 3

-y-2x =48

-y = 2x +48

y = -2x -48

m = -2

Option 4.

y+2x = 48

y = -2x+48

m = -2

So, only line of Option 1 has slope = 2 which is equal to the slope of west edge.

Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96

So, Option 1 is correct.

Which statements about the hyperbola are true? Check all that apply.
mariarad [96]

Answer:

True options: 1, 2 and 5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given diagram, you can see that the center of the hyperbola is placed at the origin, so first option is true (see attached diagram for definition of center, vertices, foci, i.e.)

There are two vertices of the hyperbola, they are placed at (-6,0) and (6,0), so second option is true.

The transverse axis is the segment connecting vertices, this segment is horizontal, so option 3 is false.

The foci are not placed within the rectangular reference box, so this option is false.

The directrices are vertical lines with equations x=\pm \dfrac{a}{e}, so this option is true.

Rewrite the given expression in the form 3^u where u is a constant or an algebraic expression.
lawyer [7]
Simplifying the given expressions we proceed as follows:
(5sqrt3)^x
=5^x*(3^1/2)^x
=5^x*3^x/2
=5^x3^u
where u=x/2


(1/2)^(x-3)
=1/2^(x-3)
=2^-(3-x)
=2^u
where u=-(3-x)

9/3sqrt(3)
=3/(3)^(1/2)
=3(3)^(-1/2)

16/(3sqrt (2^x))
=1/3*(2^4*2^(-x/2))
=1/3*2^(4-x/2)
=1/3*2^u
where:
u=4-x/2

First, she needs to find her resting heart rate by counting her pulse for one minute immediately after she wakes up for 5 days i
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

63

Step-by-step explanation:

She finds her average resting heart rate to be 62 after  5 days.

That means, average of the 5 heart rate pulse=62

If the last day was 58 and all the other days were the same.

Let x be her pulse on the other days,

Then,

Average, 62=\dfrac{58+4x}{5}\\\text{Cross Multiply}\\58+4x=62 X 5\\\text{Suntract 58 from both sides}\\4x=(62X5)-58\\4x=310-58\\4x=252\\\text{Divide both sides by 4}\\x=63

Her pulse on all the other days is 63.

A map shows the town where Niko lives. The actual distance from Niko's house to his school is 3 miles, and measures one-half inc
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

<u>The distance of the library in the map is 0.67 inches (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review all the information given for solving this question:

Scale factor for the map of the town = 0.5 inches: 3 miles

Distance from Niko's house to his school = 3 miles

Distance from Niko's school to the library = 4 miles

2. Let's find the distance of the library in the map

Distance of the library in the map = Distance of the library * Scale factor

Distance of the library in the map = 4 miles * 0.5 inches:3 miles

Distance of the library in the map = (2 miles * inches)/3 miles

Distance of the library in the map = 2 inches/3 (Miles are cancelled in the numerator and in the denominator)

<u>Distance of the library in the map = 0.67 inches (Rounding to two decimal places)</u>
