Read this entry from a blog about service dogs. Lexie, an eight-month-old black Labrador retriever, is sleeping quietly at my feet. I can’t help but think that her soft, velvety ears and alert brown eyes would make her the perfect "doggie model" for pet magazines and pet store ads. However, Lexie will soon have a much more important job to do. In a few months, she will become the loyal companion and service dog for a young man who has been blind since birth. She will help him board public transportation, such as buses, subways, and trains, and she will help him safely cross busy intersections. Lexie will even help the young man avoid obstacles, such as high curbs and low overhangs. Like all dogs in our organization, Lexie has undergone months of specialized training to help a visually impaired person lead an active and independent life. Which statement about this blog is true? Its primary purpose is to persuade; its secondary purpose is to inform. Its primary purpose is to inform

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The True Statement about this blog is stated below:

Its primary purpose is to inform.

Step-by-step explanation:

When an author's or speaker's purpose is to inform, the author or speaker usually enlightens their readers or audience about real-world topics.  The best way they achieve this is by providing lots of facts about the topic. Informational texts or speeches are oriented towards imparting information or knowledge to the reader or audience with the purpose of educating them on a particular topic.  This is clearly achieved in this passage about Lexie.  Facts are provided about Lexie's ability to help the visually impaired person, including the specialized training that the dog has undergone recently.

Answer:

  1.  sin(x) = a/c; cos(x) = b/c; tan(x) = a/b

  2, 3 see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationships between trig functions and sides of a right triangle:

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse   ⇒   sin(x) = a/c

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse   ⇒   cos(x) = b/c

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent   ⇒   tan(x) = a/b

__

2. The attachment shows the two special right triangles. The 30-60-90 right triangle has sides in the ratio 1 : √3 : 2. The 45-45-90 isosceles right triangle has sides in the ratio 1 : 1 : √2.

These ratios can be used to write proportions that help you find the length of a missing side.

Example:

Suppose the triangle in problem 1 has x = 30°, and a = 10. Then we could find the length of missing side 'c' using a proportion involving the short side and the long side (hypotenuse).

  2/1 = c/10   ⇒   c = 20

__

3. In a right triangle, the acute angles are complementary. The side adjacent to one acute angle is the side opposite the other. So the sine of one of the angles is the cosine of the other, and vice versa. This means the sine of an angle is the cosine of its complement, and vice versa.

__

Comment on question 3

The wording of this question is a little strange. Sine and cosine are not complementary. Rather, the angles for which those functions have the same value are complementary.

Roberto is 3 years older than Carolyn. In 7 years the sum of their ages will be 81. How old is Roberto now?

Answers

Answer: 35

the age of Roberto is x (x > 3)(x ∈ N)

because Roberto is 3 years older than Carolyn => the age of Carolyn is x - 3

in 7 years, the age of Roberto is x + 7; the age of Carolyn is x - 3 + 7 = x + 4

because  In 7 years the sum of their ages will be 81 =>

x + 7 + x + 4 = 81

⇔ 2x + 11 = 81

⇔ 2x = 70

⇔ x = 70/2 = 35

=>  the age of Roberto is 35

Answers

Yes it is proportional. Graph the relationship. If the graph is a straight line having a slope that is neither zero nor infinity, the relationship between the variables is proportional. Inspect the equation to see if it has (or can be made to have) the form y = kx, or x = ky, where k is a constant. In other words, if the slope of the line is neither zero nor infinity, it is proportional.

Ross wants to know what interest rate he needs to make his $800 grow to
$1000 in 4 years.

Answers

Answer:

Why?:

The interest formula is A = P(1+r/m)^mt

A is the Amount, P is principal (initial investment), R is rate, M is times per year (not used) and T is time.

So if we want 1000 = 800(1+r)^4, we need to find R. In this case, R is about 5 percent.  (I'm not super confident, so see if you have other answers)

Mr. Roberts had $9,512 in savings. He saved another $488. He then used all his money to buy 500 books. He sold the books for $35 each. How much did Mr. Roberts earn from selling each book? a. Mr. Roberts earned $ from selling each book. b. Travis got $20 as the answer or the amount Mr. Roberts earned from selling each book. Is his answer correct? yes no c. Tell why Travis is or is not correct.

Answers

Answer:

a. Profit from each book = $15

b. No, Travis was wrong.

c. Travis isn't correct because Mr. Roberts made $15 from the sales of each book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Number of books bought = 500

Selling price = $35

Robert savings (cost price) = $9,512 + $488

Robert savings (cost price) = $10,000

Purchasing price = $10,000/500 = $20

Revenues from book sold = 500 * 35 = $17,500

Total profit = Revenues - Cost price

Total profit = $17,500 - $10,000

Total profit = $7,500

To find the amount earned from each book;

[tex] Profit \; from \; each \; book = \frac {Total \;profit}{Numbers \; of \; book} [/tex]

Substituting into the equation, we have;

[tex] Profit \; from \; each \; book = \frac {7500}{500} [/tex]

Profit from each book = $15

Therefore, Mr. Roberts earned $15 from selling each book.

Check:

Selling price = purchasing price + profit = $20 + $15 = $35

Answer:

  c = 17.8, A = 25.7°, B = 64.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

Side c can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

  c = √(a² +b²)

  c = √(7.7² +16²) = √315.29

  c ≈ 17.8 . . . feet

__

The tangent relation is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(A) = a/b = 7.7/16

  A = arctan(7.7/16)

  A ≈ 25.7°

  B = 90° -25.7°

  B = 64.3°

Find the equation of the linear function represented by the table below in slope intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

Y=1x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

First use two points to find the slope. I used the first 2. The formula is (y1-y2)/(x1-x2). So (6-8)/(1-3)= -2/-2 = 1. Then you plug in a point and the slope for the equation y1-y2=m(x1-x2). I am using the first point and m is the slope which is 1. Y-6 = 1(x-1)

y-6 = 1x -1 then get y by itself

y=1x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

  y1 = 12841 +24.25x

  y2 = 48072 +12x
