If 2x + 5 ≤ 9, what is the greatest possible value of
2x - 5 ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have the linear equation, 2x-5, and it's increasing since the slope is positive, that means we want the maximum x-value, to find the maximum y-value, or possible value.

This means, we want to find the maximum x-value of 2x+5 that is less than or equal to 9, and since we want the maximum x-value, we want the right side to also be the maximum, and since we have a less than or equal to symbol, we can have the equation equal to 9, which is the make value. So we get the following equation

[tex]2x+5=9\\[/tex]

Subtract 9 from both sides

[tex]2x=4[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]x=2[/tex]

This is the maximum x-value we can get from the inequality, and now we plug this into the equation 2x-5

[tex]2(2)-5[/tex]

4-1

-1

So the maximum value is -1

What must be added to: (a) x-y + 4z to get 5x - 4y + 8z?​

Answers

Answer:

4x-3y+4z

Step-by-step explanation:

There are lot's of process to answer it but i will show one easy way to find the answer.

To find the required answer we need to subtract 5x - 4y + 8z by  x-y + 4z, we get

5x - 4y + 8z

-x   +  y - 4z  [Note: while subtracting we must change the sigh that one       ___________who we are subtracting]

4x-3y+4z which is a required answer

Answer:

4x - 3y + 4z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown value that we have to add be 'a'.

Let us make an expression like this.

x -y + 4z + a = 5x - 4y + 8z

Now make 'a' the subject of the equation.

a = 5x - 4y + 8z - x + y - 4z

Now combine like terms.

a = 5x - x - 4y + y + 8z - 4z

a = 4x - 3y + 4z

Now let us check whether the answer is correct or wrong.

We can replace 'a' with ( 4x - 3y + 4z ).

Let us see.

x - y + 4z + 4x - 3y + 4z

Combine like terms.

5x - 4y + 8z

Yes, we are getting the same answer!

Therefore,

we need to add 4x - 3y + 4z to get 5x - 4y + 8z to  x - y + 4z.

The dimensions of the short prism are 4 x 3 x 2. The volume of that prism is found by multiplying those numbers together, which is 24.

The dimensions of the tall prism are 4 x 4 x 12. The volume of that prism is 192.

Adding those 2 volumes together, you will get the volume of the composite figure. 192 + 24 = 216

A blimp is 1600 meters high in the air and measures the angles of depression to two stadiums to the east of the blimp. if those measurements are 71.7° and 25.2°, how far apart are the two stadiums?

Answers

The two stadiums are 2,871 meters

A blimp    = point A

stadium 1  = point B

stadium 2 = point C

height of the blimp ,  AD = 1600

depression angle of stadium 1 , ∠y = 71.7°

depression angle of stadium 2 , ∠x = 25.2°

distance between the two stadiums  = d

So, it forms 2 triangles  ABD and ACD,

Using the trigonometric ratios,

tan θ = Altitude / Base

DC = AD × tan (90° - x)

= 1600 × tan( 90° - 25.2° )

= 1600 × cot(25.2°)

= 1600 × 2.13

DB = AD × tan (90° - y)

= 1600 × tan( 90° - 71.7° )

= 1600 × cot(71.7°)

= 1600 × 0.33

∴ d = DC - DB

     = 1600 * [ tan( 90° - 25.2° ) - tan( 90° - 71.7° ) ]

    = 2,871 meters

Will the dress code change? Do we know which option will occur? Be sure to explain your reasoning.

Answers

Each sample has an equal chance of being picked as part of the sampling procedure known as random sampling. A randomly selected sample is intended to provide a fair reflection of the entire population.

How should Rashad proceed with the random sampling?

Step 1: He should identify and decide which population he wants to study

Step 2: He should decide the size of the sample. He can do this using a sample size calculator.

Step 3: Select the Sample Randomly using:

Lottery technique; orRandom Number Technique.

It is to be noted that the lottery and Random Techniques can be manual or computer simulated.

The sample bar graph for the above sample is attached.

If 40% of this majority agrees on the same change, that will be what is done with the dress code, will the dress code change?

40% of 60% is not likely to catalyze a change in the needed change. A more proper percentage should be 90%.

The distance between point [tex](8, \sqrt{17})[/tex] and the center (0,0) is of 9 units, which is less than the radius, hence the correct option is:

In this problem, we have a circle with center at (0,0) and radius 10. Hence, every point that is less than 10 units of distance from point (0,0) will be on the circle.

The distance of [tex](8, \sqrt{17})[/tex] is:

[tex]D = \sqrt{(8 - 0)^2+(\sqrt{17} - 0)^2}[/tex]

[tex]D = \sqrt{81}[/tex]

how many rectangles of different sizes can be formed from 36 identical rectangles

Answers

The number of rectangles of different sizes can be formed from 36 identical rectangles is 5

Number of rectangles

From the question, we have proofs of;

Total number of identical squares = 36

Now, let the measurement of the side of each square be 1 unit

We have that the formula for area of a square is;

Area of a square = Side × Side square units

We have the area of the square to be;

Area of each square = 1×1 = 1 square units

This is so because the rectangles are identical both in length and width

Let's find the area of the identical squares

Area of total 36 identical squares

=  36×1 square units

=  36 square units

So Area of the rectangle = length × breadth square units

if the rectangles are formed from 36 identical squares then their areas are the same

Total area of required rectangles = 36 square units

It can be written as;

36 = length × breadth

36 = 1×36 36 = 2×1836 = 3×1236 = 4×936 = 6×6

(1,36) , (2,18),(3,12),(4,9),(6,6) are the different rectangles formed from 36 identical squares

Total rectangles = 5

Thus, the number of rectangles of different sizes can be formed from 36 identical rectangles is 5
