In the diagram, P is a point on ST such that P is between S and T. If SP = x + 3, PT =2x-1 and ST = 17, find the length of PT

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the given parameters, the numerical length of PT is 9 units

How to determine the length of PT?

The given parameters are:

P is a point on ST such that P is between S and T.

SP = x + 3,

PT = 2x - 1

ST = 17

The statement "P is a point on ST such that P is between S and T" implies that

ST = SP + PT

Substitute the known values in the above equation

17 = x + 3 + 2x - 1

Evaluate the like terms

17 = 3x + 2

Add 2 to both sides of the equation

3x = 15

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

So, we have

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 in PT = 2x - 1

So, we have

PT = 2 x 5 - 1

Evaluate

PT = 9

Hence, the numerical length of PT is 9 units

You are going down a road with a 5% grade.
You are going down 1 feet every 20 feet horizontally.
The slope of the road as a reduced fraction is??

Answers

The slope of the road as reduced fraction  [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex] for grade which is 5%.

The slope of a road is defined as the ratio of the vertical height that a road rises to the horizontal distance covered to rise to that height.

While slope is expressed as a fraction grade is the percentage form of that fraction. The slope can also be defined as [tex]tan[/tex] [tex]\theta[/tex] where [tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle of elevation of the road. For example a slope of [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] has a grade of 25%.

Here the given grade is 5%.

Per-cent refers to per one-hundred. So a 5% grade is 5 per one -hundred.

That means if the road is climbing then for every 100 units of horizontal distance covered, the altitude increases by 5 units.

Now slope of the road=vertical distance ÷ horizontal distance

[tex]=\frac{5}{100}\\=\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Therefore we can say that the slope of the road is [tex]\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Ray BD bisects angle abc. Find the m angle abd m angle cbd and m abc

Answers

m∠ABD= 67°, m∠CBD= 67° and m∠ABC= 134°;

Bisector BD bisects ∠ABC.

∠ABD= (8x+35)°, ∠CBD= (11x+23)°.

As given, bisector BD bisects the angle ABC so this means, the angle ABC is divided into two halves.

So,

angle ABD= angle CBD.

and ∠ABD= (8x + 35)° (i)

∠CBD= (11x + 23)° (ii)

So,

(8x + 35)° = (11x + 23)°

On solving the above equation, we have

3x= 12

x= 4.

Putting x=4 in (i) we have,

∠ABD= 8(4) + 35

∠ABD= 67°

As ∠ABD = ∠CBD, we have

∠CBD= 67°

Now,

∠ABC= ∠ABD + ∠CBD

∠ABC= 67° + 67°

∠ABC= 134°.

Hence, m∠ABD= 67°, m∠CBD= 67° and m∠ABC= 134°.

Answer:

[tex] 1.7 \times 10^3 = 1700 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many times x is smaller than y, divide y by x.

Here we want to find how many times 5 × 10^-7 is smaller than 8.5 × 10^-4, so we divide 8.5 × 10^-4 by 5 × 10^-7.

[tex] \dfrac{8.5 \times 10^{-4}}{5 \times 10^{-7}} = [/tex]

[tex] = \dfrac{8.5}{5} \times \dfrac{10^{-4}}{10^{-7}} [/tex]

[tex] = 1.7 \times 10^{-4 - (-7)} [/tex]

[tex] = 1.7 \times 10^{-4 + 7} [/tex]

[tex] = 1.7 \times 10^3 = 1700 [/tex]


The distance of the segment formed by the two points
is 15. What is the number that goes in the blank?
Explain or show your reasoning.
(-3,-4) (6, _)

Answers

The missing coordinate can either be - 16 or 8.

Let the missing coordinate be x.

Now, we know that the distance between (-3, -4) and (6, x) is 15.

Using the distance formula, we get that:

Distance² = (x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

Substituting the values in the formula, we get that:

15² = (6 + 3)² + ( x + 4)²

225 = 9² + x² + 16 + 8 x

225 = 81 +x² + 16 + 8 x

225 = x² + 8 x + 97

x² + 8 x - 128 = 0

x² + 16 x - 8 x -128 = 0

x ( x + 16) - 8 ( x + 16) = 0

(x + 16)(x - 8) = 0

x = -16 or x = 8.

Therefore, the missing coordinate can either be - 16 or 8.

The altitude of a a in feet of a plain t minutes after lift off is given by a= 3400t + 600 how many minutes after lift off is the plane editive and altitude of 21,000 feet

Answers

The plane will be at an altitude of 21,000 feet, 6 minutes after lift off.

For any equation, x = y + a, if we are given the value of any one of the variables, that is either x or y, we can find the value of the other.

Here, we are given an equation

a = 3400t + 600

where a = altitude of the plane in feet

and t = time (in minutes) passed after the plane's lift off

If the altitude of the plane is 21,000 feet

⇒ a = 21,000

Substituting this in the equation, we get

21,000 = 3400t + 600

21,000 - 600 = 3400t

20,400 = 3400t

3400t = 20,400

t = 20,400/ 3,400

t = 204/ 34

t = 6

Thus, the plane will be at an altitude of 21,000 feet, 6 minutes after lift off.
