Parallelogram P Q S R is shown. The length of P Q is (4 x minus 1) centimeters and the length of R S is (3 x + 7) centimeters.
The perimeter of parallelogram PQSR is 74 cm. What is QS?

4 cm
6 cm
8 cm
12 cm

Answers

Answer 1

The opposite sides PQ and RS of the parallelogram PQRS are congruent

The value of the length QS is 6 cm

How to determine the length QS?

The given parameters are:

PQ = 4x - 1

RS = 3x + 7

Opposite sides are congruent.

So, we have:

4x - 1 = 3x + 7

Collect like terms

4x - 3x = 1 + 7

Evaluate the expressions

x = 8

The perimeter is calculated using:

Perimeter = 2(QS + RS)

This gives

2(QS + RS) = 74

Divide by 2

QS + RS = 37

Substiute RS = 3x + 7

QS + 3x + 7 = 37

Substitute 8 for x

QS + 3*8 + 7 = 37

This gives

QS + 31 = 37

Subtract 31 from both sides

QS = 6

Hence, the value of the length QS is 6 cm

In your own words, name the two operations used for converting weight measurements, and describe when to use each.

What are the 2 operations that you use to convert weight? I'm confused.
Is it multiplying and dividing?

Answers

Answer:

In physics the standard unit of weight is Newton, and the standard unit of mass is the kilogram. On Earth, a 1 kg object weighs 9.8 N, so to find the weight of an object in N simply multiply the mass by 9.8 N. Or, to find the mass in kg, divide the weight by 9.8 N.Divide the object's weight by the acceleration of gravity to find the mass.

Solve by completing the square

Answers

Answer:

The answer is (-6 + √41), (-6 – √41)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an equation

x² + 12x = 5

Subtract 5 from both side we get,

x² + 12x – 5 = 5 – 5

x² + 12x – 5 = 0

we get the equation in the form of

ax² + bx + c = 0

Here, a = 1, b = 12, c = (-5)

Now, Add and subtract (b/2a)² we get,

x² + 12x + (12/2)² – (12/2)² – 5 = 0

x² + 12x + (6)² – (6)² – 5 = 0

(x + 6)² – 36 – 5 = 0

(x + 6)² – 41 = 0

Now, add 41 both side we get,

(x + 6)² – 41 + 41 = 0 + 41

(x + 6)² = 41

√(x + 6)² = √41

x + 6 = ±√41

x = -6 + √41, -6 – √41

Thus, The roots of the equation is

(-6 + √41) and (-6 – √41).

The net square pyramid and its given dimension as shown has a total surface area of 1040 ft².

Surface area of a square pyramid = A + 1 / 2 ps

A = area of the basep = perimeter of bases = slant height

Therefore,

A = l²

l = length = 20 ft

A = 20² = 400 ft²

Answers

The volume of the chocolate is the amount of choclate used in the cherries

The amount of chocolate used is 17.24 cubic centimeters

How to determine the amoumt of chocolate?

Start by calculating the volume of the cherries using:

V = 4/3 π(D/2)^3

The diameter of the cherry is 2.8 cm.

So, we have:

V = 4/3π(2.8/2)^3

Evaluate

V = 11.49

Next, calculate the volume of the cherry and the chocolate.

V = 4/3π(0.5+2.8/2)^3

V = 28.73

Calculate the difference (d) between both volumes

d = 28.73 - 11.49

d = 17.24

Hence, the amount of chocolate used is 17.24 cubic centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

= 9/60

YAY!!!!!!!

The fraction of the exams that Mr Tough and Mrs Nice grade in 1 hour if they work together is 3/20

What are fractions?

In Maths, a fraction is used to represent the portion/part of the whole thing. A fraction has two parts, namely numerator and denominator. There are proper fractions, improper fractions and mixed fractions.

Example: 2/5, 1/4 etc.

How to solve Work and Time problems:

We will this equation,

rate × time = work done

For this problem:

             Mr Tough's rate:

                          Mr Tough's rate × 12 hours = final exam

                          Mr Tough's rate = 1/12

             Mrs.Nice's' rate:

                            Mrs .Nice's' rate × 15 hours = final exam

                            Mrs .Nice's' rate = 1/15

To make this into a solvable equation,  find the total time (T) needed for Mr Tough and Mrs.Nice to grade the final exam. This time is the sum of the rates of Mr Tough and Mrs.Nicea, or:

Total time:

T(1/12 hours + 1/15 hours) = final exam

T =  final exam / (1/12 + 1/15)

Simplifying we get,

T =  final exam / (0.15)

Now, to finish in 1 hour we will find what fraction of the final exam they can grade, so taking T = 1 hour,

1 hour =  final exam / (0.15)

By further simplifying,

final exam = 1 × 0.15

                 = 0.15

                 = 15/ 100

                 = 3/20

Therefore, 3/20 fraction of the final exam they can grade if they work together for 1 hour.

The average number of potholes per 10 miles of paved U.S. roads is 130. Assume this variable is approximately normally distributed and has a standard deviation of 5. Find the probability that a randomly selected road has more than 142 potholes per 10 miles

Answers

Answer:

54.03% probability that a randomly selected road has between 128 and 136 potholes per 10 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean  and standard deviation, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

Find the probability that a randomly selected road has between 128 and 136 potholes per 10 miles.

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 136 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 128. So

X = 136

has a pvalue of 0.8849.

X = 128

has a pvalue of 0.3446.

0.8849 - 0.3446 = 0.5403

54.03% probability that a randomly selected road has between 128 and 136 potholes per 10 miles.

Notice that [tex]\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{12xe^x-12x}{cos(5x)-1}=\frac{12(0)e^{0}-12(0)}{cos(5(0))-1}=\frac{0}{0}[/tex], which is in indeterminate form, so we must use L'Hôpital's rule which states that [tex]\lim_{x \to c} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=\lim_{x \to c} \frac{f'(x)}{g'(x)}[/tex]. Basically, we keep differentiating the numerator and denominator until we can plug the limit in without having any discontinuities:

[tex]\frac{12xe^x-12x}{cos(5x)-1}\\\\\frac{12xe^x+12e^x-12}{-5sin(5x)}\\ \\\frac{12xe^x+12e^x+12e^x}{-25cos(5x)}[/tex]

Now, plug in the limit and evaluate:
