30. When asked his age, the algebra teacher said, "If you
square my age, then subtract 23 times my age, the
result is 50. How old is be?
F. 23
G. 25
H. 27
J. 46
K. 50

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

25 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the teacher's age be a.

Then:

a^2 - 23a = 50

In standard form, this quadratic is

x^2 - 23a - 50 = 0

Factoring this, we get (x - 25)(x + 2) = 0

So a is either 25 or a is -2.  Only a = 25 is relevant here.

The teacher is 25 years old (Answer G)

To multiply exponents, you add them. To divide exponents, you subtract them. The answer would be 5 to the power of -3. However, we need to change that. 5 to the power of -3 is equal to 1 divided by 5 to the power of 3. 1 divided by 5 to the power of 3 is correct.

Walter is planning a hiking trip and he estimated the gradient of trail to be 213.6 ft/mile. After hiking and tracking the trail, he found that the trail was actually 202.7 ft/mile. What was his percent error? Did he overestimate or underestimate the gradient?

Answers

Answer: His percent error = 5.38 %

He overestimated the gradient.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula : [tex]Percent\ error =\dfrac{|Estimated\ value- Actual\ value|}{Actual\ value}\times100[/tex]

Given, Estimated gradient of trail  = 213.6 ft/mile

Actual gradient of trail  =  202.7 ft/mile

Since,  213.6 > 202.7 , that means he overestimated the gradient.

Percent error: [tex]\dfrac{|213.6-202.7|}{202.7}\times100[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{10.9}{202.7}\times100\\\\\approx5.38\%[/tex]

Hence, percent error = 5.38 %

If 1/5 of the money in a cash box is 30 dollars, how much money is in the cash box?

Answers

Answer:

Money in the cash box is $150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = money in the cash box

1/5 of the money in a cash box is 30 dollars

1/5 of x = $30

1/5 * x = 30

1/5x = 30

Divide both sides by 1/5

x = 30 ÷ 1/5

= 30 × 5/1

= 150/1

x = $150

A scale drawing of a school bus has a scale of 1 inch to 5 feet. If the length of the school bus is 6 inches on the scale drawing, what is the actual length of the bus? Explain or show your reasoning. *

Answers

Answer: 30 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In Technical drawings scales are used to reduce the size ( scaling ) of drawings so they fit in our drawing sheets. in this example above the drawer stated that 1inch was representing 5feet. what this means is that because we can’t get a drawing sheet which would be 40-100 feet wide we need to rescale our drawing to fit into the available sheet. So by saying 1inch equals 5feet this means the school bus is 30Feet in length.

Answer:

x^2 - 4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 - 6x

g(x) = -2x + 3

(f - g)(x) is the subtraction of the functions, f(x) - g(x)

You need to write it carefully using parentheses for function g(x).

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x) =

= x^2 - 6x - (-2x + 3)

Now take care of the parentheses by distributing the negative sign to its left. It will change every sign inside the parentheses.

= x^2 - 6x + 2x - 3

= x^2 - 4x - 3

In the diagram below of triangle KLM, N is a midpoint of KL and P is a midpoint
of LM. If mZPNL = 2x + 61, and MKN = 97 - 7x, what is the measure of
ZPNL?

Answers

Answer:

Solution:

(1/12)^(-2b) * 12^(-2b+2) = 12

(12^-1)^(-2b) (12)^(-2b+2) = 12

(12^2b)(12)^(-2b+2) = 12

12^(2b-2b+2) = 12

12^2 = 12

144 does not equal 12

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle PNL will be equivalent to 69 degrees.

What is triangle?

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees. Mathematically -

∠x + ∠y + ∠z = 180°

The sum of two sides of a triangle is greater then the third side. Mathematically -

a + b > c

There are different types of triangles such as -

equilateral triangle , scalene triangle , isosceles triangle etc.

Given is a triangle KLM such that N is a midpoint of KL and P is a midpoint of LM.

Triangles LMP and LKM are similar to each other. Therefore, PN will be parallel to MK. So angle PNL will be equal to angle MKN. Therefore -

2x + 61 = 97 - 7x

9x = 97 - 61

9x = 36

x = 4

So, angle PNL will be equal to -

2 x 4 + 61

69 degrees

Therefore, the measure of angle PNL will be equivalent to 69 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

-X= 8​

Multiply by -1

x = -8​

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both side of the equation by -1

-x(-1) = 8(-1)

On the x side, the negatives cancel each other out, making x positive.

On the 8 side, the negative makes the 8 into -8.

x = -8

The transformations of the graph is a reflection in the x-axis followed by a translation down by 7 units.

Option (C) is correct.

It is required to choose  the transformations of the graph.

What are transformations?

A transformation is a general term for four specific ways to manipulate the shape and/or position of a point, a line, or geometric figure. The original shape of the object is called the Pre-Image and the final shape and position of the object is the Image under the transformation.

Given:

We have a given a graph of y = f(-x) – 7.

The transformations in order are the following:

Reflection over the x-axis.

Horizontal translation of 7 units to the left.

Therefore, the transformations of the graph is a reflection in the x-axis followed by a translation down by 7 units.
