Let A be (x1,y1) , B be (x2,y2) , P be (x,y) and the ratio be m:n

Formula is,

x=(x2*m+x1*n)/(m+n)

y=(y2*m+y1*n)/(m+n)

A plane intersects the center of a sphere with a volume of about 113.1 m3. What is the area of the cross section? Round to the n

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$if ~radius=r \\volume =\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\113.1=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\113.1 \times \frac{3}{4 \pi } =r^3\\\frac{339.3 }{4 \times 3.14} =r^3\\r^3=\frac{339.3}{12.56} \approx 27\\r=3\\area =\pi r^2=\pi *3^2=9\pi =9*3.14=28.26 \approx 28.3 ~m^2$

N(17+x)=34x−r<br> I need to solve for x

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The value of x is, $x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

Explanation:

Given: $N(17+x)=34x-r$

Distributive Property states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

If $a\cdot(b+c) =a\cdot b + a\cdot c$

Now, using distributive property on left hand side of the given expression as:

$N\cdot 17+N\cdot x = 34x-r$ or $17N+Nx = 34x-r$

Addition Property of equality state that we add the same number from both sides of an equation.

Add r to both sides of an equation:

$17N+Nx+r=34x-r+r$

Simplify:

$17N+Nx+r=34x$

Subtraction Property of equality state that we subtract the same number from both sides of an equation.

Subtract Nx from both sides of an equation;

$17N+Nx+r-Nx=34x-Nx$

Simplify:

$17N+r=34x-Nx$

$17N+r=x(34-N)$

Division Property of equality states that we divide the same number from both sides of an equation.

Divide by (34-N) to both sides of an equation;

$\frac{17N+r}{34-N}= \frac{x(34-N)}{34-N}$

On Simplify:

$x= \frac{17N+r}{34-N}$

Which expression is equivalent to mc003-1.jpg?

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Option A is correct

The expression which is equivalent to $(f\cdot g)(5)$ is $f(5) \cdot g(5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula:

$(f \cdot g)(x) = f(x) \cdot g(x)$ .....[1]

Given the expression:

$(f\cdot g)(5)$

Substitute the value of x = 5 in [1]

we get;

$(f \cdot g)(5) = f(5) \cdot g(5)$

Therefore, the expression which is equivalent to $(f\cdot g)(5)$ is $f(5) \cdot g(5)$

Which expression is equivalent to 7a2b + 10a2b2 + 14a2b3?

Ugo [173]

The given expression can be simplified in many ways by grouping like terms. The simplest form is obtained by factoring out a²b which gives us the following expression.

a²b(7 + 10b +14b²)
