Given that,

The graphic displays the yards-long sides of a triangle and a square. The triangle's perimeter is the same as the square's perimeter.

We have to find the value of x in the given side.

In the picture we can see the triangle and square.

The perimeter of the triangle is sum of the three sides of the triangle.

The perimeter of the square is 4 times the side of the square.

4x-2+2x+2(x+7)=4×2.5x

4x-2+2x+2x+14=10x

8x+12=10x

10x-8x=12

2x=12

x=12/2

x=6

Therefore, the value of x=6

y= 2x+4

Slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

Where:

m= slope

b= y-intercept

y=2x+4

Slope = m= 2

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

So, the slope of the new line = -1/2

New equation:

y= -1/2x+b

Replace x,y by the point (4,2) and solve for b:

2 = -1/2(4)+b

2= -2 + b

2+2 = b

4 = b

New line equation:

y= -1/2x+4

The average cost per minute which the shop runs is $1.50

To find the shop's cost per minute, we can write down equations and proceed to solve.

In the given question, 3 cupcakes cost $6.75 and 5 cupcakes cost $9.75.

But we were not given the average cost per cupcake.

To do that, let's write an equation for this.

[tex]y = mx + c[/tex]

Let's find the slope to this equation which determines the average cost per minute.

[tex]m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\m = \frac{9.75 - 6.75}{5 - 3} \\m = 1.50[/tex]

The shop's cost per minute was calculated to be $1.50.

The expected value of the proposition is $22.6

The given parameters are

Represent the proportion as a fraction

So, we have

p = 359/449

The expected value is then calculated as

E(x) = p * Amount paid for making a throw - (1 - p) * Amount collected for losing a throw

Where p represents the proportion defined above

So, we have

E(x) = 359/449 * 39 - (1 - 359/449) * 43

Evaluate the difference

E(x) = 359/449 * 39 - 90/449 * 43

So, we have

E(x) = 22.6

Hence, the proposition has an expected value of $22.6

The problem requires one to calculate the win payoff and win probability as well as the lose payoff and probability. You would then do a calculation like this:

[(Win Payoff) x (Win Probability)] + [(Lose Payoff) x (Lose Probability)]

Formula for the trigonometry is y = b sin ( πx/2 - π/2) + 4

y = A sin( ωx + δ) + b

period: t = 4

ω = 2π/t = 2π/4 = π/2

A = 10 -(-2)/ 2

  = 6

b = (10-2)/2

  = 4

y = b sin (πx/2 + δ) + 4

x = 0, y = bsinδ + 4 = -2

sinδ = -1   => δ = -π/2

y = b sin( πx/2 - π/2) + 4

Therefore the formula for the trigonometry function is y = b sin(πx/2 - π/2) + 4.

The general form of a quadratic equation is given by the expression:

Therefore, any quadratic equation that has the a-value to be lesser than zero has a maximum point

Mathematically expressed as:

Answer:

x-intercept: (-0.5,0)

y-intercept: (0,1)

Slope: 2

Domain: All real values

Range: All real values

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept:

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0. In this graphic, we have that when y = 0, x = -0.5. So the x-intercept is given by: (-0.5,0)

y-intercept:

The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0. In this graphic, we have that when x = 0, y = 1. So the y-intercept is given by: (0,1).

Slope:

To find the slope, we select two points. The slope is given by the division of the change in y by the change in x.

Two points: (-0.5, 0) and (0,1)

Change in y: 1 - 0 = 1

Change in x: 0 - (-0.5) = 0 + 0.5 = 0.5

Slope: 1/0.5 = 2

Domain and range:

In a line, the domain is all real values, the same for the range.

The factor by which the current changes if the resistance increases 10% is; 90.9% reduction

Ohm's law states that the electrical current (I) flowing in a circuit is directly proportional to the voltage (V) and inversely proportional to the resistance(R). Therefore, if the voltage is increased, the current will increase provided the resistance of the circuit does not change. Thus;

I = V/R

Now, we are told that the resistance increases by 10%.

Thus, New value of resistance = 1.1R

Thus, new current/old current = 1/1.1 = 0.909 = 90.9%

If Montraie is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 4.6% compounded annually, then she has to invest $820.06 for the value of the account to reach $1610 in 15 years

The interest rate = 4.6%

The final amount = $1610

The time period = 15 years

The compound interest

A = [tex]P(1+\frac{r}{100})^{t}[/tex]

Where A is the final amount

P is the principal amount

r = interest rate

t is the time period

Substitute the values in the equation

1610 = [tex]P(1+\frac{4.6}{100})^{15}[/tex]

1610 = P×1.96

The measure of the fourth angle that is x and the value is 133°

A regular octagon will have all its sides equal in length. Each interior angle of a regular octagon is equal to 135°. Therefore, the measure of exterior angle becomes 180° – 135° = 45°. The sum of the interior angles of the octagon is 135 × 8 = 1080°.

Let the 8 interior angles of the octagon be:

x-12, x-8, x-4, x, x+4, x+8, x+12, x+16.

Their sum = 8x+16 = 1080, or

this implies 8x = 1080–16 = 1064

We will have to find the coefficients a, b and c:

• a ,= -2;

• b ,= 12;

• c ,= -15;

As we can see, coefficient a is negative. It means that the parabola will face downwards and have a maximum value.

We can obtain this point by using the two formulas below to calculate the coordinates (x, y) of this point, look:

As we know the coefficients, let's replace the values in the formulas:

Xv:

Now let's find Yv:

Doing this, we obtained the coordinate of the maximum point (x, y) = (3, 3).

As it doesn't have any restrictions, the domain will be: [-∞, +∞].

The maximum value will be when y = 3, so the range is [-∞, 3].
