Mathematics

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

x = 3

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The complete question is shown in the attached diagram

<u>Collinear points</u> are defined as points that lie on the same straight line

Since points U, T and V are given to be collinear, this means that these three points lie on the same straight line

Now, we are given that point U is between points T and V

This would mean that the length of segment TV can be written as the sum of the segments TU and UV

<u>Therefore:</u>

TV = TU + UV

<u>We are given that:</u>

TV = 14x - 8

TU = 9x + 2

UV = 5

<u>Substitute with the givens in the above mentioned equation and solve for x as follows:</u>

TV = TU + UV

14x - 8 = 9x + 2 + 5

14x - 8 = 9x + 7

14x - 9x = 7 + 8

5x = 15

x = 3

Hope this helps :)

Points E, F, and D are located on circle C. Circle C is shown. Line segments E C and D F are radii. Lines are drawn from points
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Option (1). 34°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached, CE and CD are the radii of the circle C.

Central angle CED formed by the intercepted arc DE = 68°

Since measure of an arc = central angle formed by the intercepted arc

Therefore, m∠CED = 68°

Since m∠EFD = \frac{1}{2}(m\angle ECD) [Central angle of an intercepted arc measure  the double of the inscribed angle by the same arc]

Therefore, m∠EFD = \frac{1}{2}(68)

                               = 34°

Therefore, Option (1) 34° will be the answer.

As a smart consumer, you are always on the lookout for sales, coupons, and rebates. While shopping for new clothes, you notice t
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

You'd have to buy 3 shirts in order to use your coupon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each shirt originally costs $17.99

One particular brand of shirts is on sale for 20% off the original price.

$17.99*0.2= $3.60 (amount taken off for each shirt)

Now subtract $3.60 from $17.99.

$17.99 - $3.60 = $14.39 (per shirt)

40 / 14.39 = 2.779 (round to 3)

You'd have to buy 3 shirts in order to use your coupon.

$14.39 * 3 = $43.17, in order to get $10 off you'd need to spend at least $40

Consider the first five steps of the derivation of The Quadratic function
Burka [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  • pick like terms

x² +  b²/4a² = -c / a + b²/4a²

  • b²/4a² = (b/2a)²

x² + (b/2a)² = -c/a + (b/2a)²

(x + b/2a)² = -c/a + (b/2a)² =  -c / a + b²/4a² = (-4ac+ b²)/4a²

(x + b/2a)² =  (-4ac+ b²)/4a²

  • square root both sides

√{(x + b/2a)²} = √{(-4ac+ b²)/4a²}

x + b/2a = √(-4ac+ b²) / √(4a²) = √(-4ac+ b²) / 2a = √( b²-4ac) / 2a

x + b/2a  =  √( b²-4ac) / 2a

  • subtract b/2a from both sides

x + b/2a -b/2a  =  {√( b²-4ac) / 2a } -b/2a

x = -b/2a +   {√( b²-4ac) / 2a }

  • the l.c.m is the same

x = {-b±√( b²-4ac)}/2a
