The water level of a river is 170feet. The river recedes 4 feet each year. Ingrid claims that the equation that represents this scenario is y=170x-4. Is her equation correct?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation y = mx + b, which is the form Ingrid's equation is in, the m stands for the rate of change. If the water level is decreasing, the rate at which it is decreasing is what goes in for m. The "b" of that equation indicates the starting height of the water, which is 170. The equation should be:

y = -4x + 170, negative because the water is decreasing.

Triangle Q R S is shown. Line R Q extends through point P. Angle Q S R is 35 degrees. Angle S R Q is 58 degrees. Exterior angle S Q P is x degrees. What is the value of x?

Answers

The triangle is missing and so i have attached it.

Answer:

x = 93°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangle attached, we can say that;

<SQP + <SQR = 180°

This is because sum of angles on a straight line equals 180°.

Secondly, we know that sum of angles in a triangle also equals 180°.

Thus;

<SQR + <QSR + <SRQ = 180

From the attached triangle, we see that;

<QSR = 35°

<SRQ = 58°

Thus;

<SQR + 35° + 58° = 180°

<SQR + 93° = 180°

<SQR = 180° - 93°

<SQR = 87°

From earlier on, we saw that;

<SQP + <SQR = 180°

Plugging in <SQR = 87°, we have;

<SQP + 87° = 180°

<SQP = 180° - 87°

<SQP = 93°

We are told in the question that <SQP is denoted by x.

Thus;

x = 93°

calculate the amount of rupees 31250 at the end of 2½ years, compounded annually at 8% per annum.​

Answers

Principal = 31250

Time= 2 and 1/2 years

Rate= 8% so first we take out the amount for 2 years which would be: 36450

Now we we will take out the amount for 1/2 years. Now the rate for 1/2 years is 4% with principal

The amount for 1/2 years for 4% rate is= 37908

Answer: 37908 is the amount after 2 and 1/2 years at the rate of 8%

Triangle not drawn to scale

Answers

Answer: Choice A) 6.8 inches

=========================================================

Explanation:

It's a bit strange why your teacher has the "26 degree" label pointing at a side length, rather than an actual angle. I'm assuming your teacher meant to aim it at angle C. In other words, I'm assuming they meant to say angle C = 26 degrees.

If that assumption is correct, then,

A+B+C = 180

38+B+26 = 180

B+64 = 180

B = 180-64

B = 116

Then we can use the law of sines like so:

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B)

a/sin(38) = 10/sin(116)

a = sin(38)*10/sin(116)

a = 6.84986152123146

a = 6.8

Side 'a' is approximately 6.8 inches long. So that's why the answer is choice A.

Six pairs of shoes cost as much as 1 coat, 2 pairs of jeans cost as much as 3 pairs of shoes, and 4 pairs of socks cost as much as one pair of jeans. How many coats could I exchange for 64 pairs of socks?

Answers

Answer:

4 coats

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a pair of shoe be x.

Thus, 6 pairs would cost; 6x

Thus,1 coat will cost 6x.

2 pairs of jeans cost as much as 3 pairs of shoes.

Thus, 2 pairs of jeans will cost 3x.

4 pairs of socks cost as much as one pair of jeans.

If 2 pairs of jeans cost 3x

Then 1 pair will cost 3x/2 = 1.5x

Thus, 4 pairs of socks will cost 1.5x.

Thus, 1 pair of socks will cost 1.5x/4

Then, 64 pairs of socks will cost;

64 × 1.5x/4 = 24x

Earlier, we saw that 1 coat costs 6x.

Thus means that;

Number of coats to exchange for 64 pairs of socks = 24x/6x = 4 coats

Vail skied 2 km north, 2 km west, 1 km north, and 2 km west. How far was she from her starting point?

Answers

Answer:

5.0645km

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first part of the journey where Vail skied 2 km north, 2 km west

displacement = √2² + (-2)²

displacement = √4+4

displacement = √8

displacement = 2√2 km

d1 = 2√2 km

For the second part of the journey where he skeid 1 km north, and 2 km west. How far was she from her starting point?

displacement = √1² + (-2)²

displacement = √1+4

displacement = √5

d2 = √5 km

Total displacement = d1 + d2

Total displacement = 2√2 + √5

Total displacement = 2(1.4142) + 2.2361

Total displacement = 2.8284+ 2.2361

Total displacement = 5.0645km

Hence she was 5.0645km from her starting point

Answer:

B. y=1/2+2

Step-by-step explanation:

since parallel lines always have the same slope, the only two possible answers could be B and C. in order to find if one of those goes through point (-2,1), we have to set up an equation to find the base:

1=1/2(-2)+b

1=-1+b

A permutation is defined as a mathematical process which determines the number of different arrangements in a set of objects when the order of the sequential arrangements.

What are Arithmetic operations?

Arithmetic operations can also be specified by the subtract, divide, and multiply built-in functions.

The operator that perform arithmetic operation are called arithmetic operators .

Operators which let do basic mathematical calculation

+ Addition operation : Adds values on either side of the operator.

For example 4 + 2 = 6

- Subtraction operation : Subtracts right hand operand from left hand operand.

for example 4 -2 = 2

* Multiplication operation : Multiplies values on either side of the operator

For example 4*2 = 8

There are six choices to begin with and that quantity decreases by one every time the next digit is chosen as shown below:

How much is 3p-4p+r less than 4p+3q-5r​

Answers

Answer:

3p−4q+r) is (p + 7q - 6r)(p+7q−6r) less than (4p+3q-5r)(4p+3q−5r) .

Let (3p-4q+r)(3p−4q+r) is 'x' less than (4p+3q-5r)(4p+3q−5r) . Then

3p-4q+r = 4p+3q-5r - x→3p−4q+r=4p+3q−5r−x

x= 4p+3q-5r - (3p-4q+r)→x=4p+3q−5r−(3p−4q+r)

x= 4p+3q-5r - 3p + 4q - r→x=4p+3q−5r−3p+4q−r

x= 4p- 3p +3q +4q - 5r - r→x=4p−3p+3q+4q−5r−r

x= p + 7q - 6r→x=p+7q−6r
