Answers

Answer:

Mark Brainliest please

Answer: 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Curved Surface area of a cylinder formula :-

2.pie*r*h (where r is the radius)
Height = 21 cm

Curved Surface area of the cylinder = 660 cm2

So, 2* pie* r* h = 660 (Here I will assume pie to be 22/7)

And 2* 22/7 * 21* r = 660

And 132 * r = 660
Therefore, r = 660/132 = 5cnn

Therefore radius of the cylinder = 5 cm

Solve the equation ln(x - 3) + ln(x + 1) = ln(x + 7)

x = 5, or x = ???

Answers

Answer:

x = 5 or x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of logarithms

log x + log y = log (xy)

log x = log y ⇒ x = y

Given

ln(x- 3) + ln(x + 1) = ln(x + 7) , then

ln (x - 3)(x + 1) = ln (x + 7) , so

(x - 3)(x + 1) = x + 7 ← expand left side using FOIL

x² - 2x - 3 = x + 7 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )

x² - 3x - 10 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

Given the system of equations, what is the solution? 2x+y = -1 х- у = -5​

Answers

Answer:

x=-2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

make it easy first, solve for x in the second equation: x= -5+y.

then sub that in for the other x: 2(-5+y)+y= -1

now combine like terms: -10+3y= -1

solve for y: 3y=9, y= 3

then replace y for your second equation: x-3= -5

solve for x= -5+3.... so then its -2

check by replacing all variables with your new solutions:

2(-2), which is -4+3 does equal -1

(-2) -3 does equal -5.

your answers are x=-2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relations tell us that ...

  VW = TV +3

  TW = VW +TV -19

  VW +TW +TV = 62

__

Solving the first equation for TW gives ...

 TV = VW -3

Substituting that into the second equation gives ...

  TW = 2VW -22

And using these expressions in the third equation, we have ...

  VW +(2VW -22) +(VW -3) = 62

  4VW = 87 . . . . . . . . collect terms

  VW = 21.75 . . . . . . divide by 4

The length of VW is 21.75 meters.

B) Dependent

Step-by-step explanation:

A) If we take a marble out and put the marble back, it means we have restored the sample to what it was initially and thus it doesn't affect probability of making another selection.

Thus, this is an independent event.

B) A card is taken from a deck of cards without replacement and set aside. Then after that another card is taken from the first sample, this means that the first sample size has now reduced and thus the first card taken affects the probability of the second card to be picked. Thus, this is a dependent event.

2. Suppose the measures of the interior angles of a convex octagon are eight
numbers, each separated by a value of 1 degree from its neighbors. Find
the measure of the second smallest angle.
118°
131°
132.5°
142°
None of these answers are correct.

Answers

Answer:  132.5 degrees  (choice C)

=====================================================

Explanation:

The interior angles are consecutive numbers such as 1,2,3,... or 7,8,9... and so on. The gap between any two adjacent neighbors is 1.

For any polygon with n sides, the interior angles add up to 180(n-2)

We have n = 8 sides so the interior angles sum to 180(n-2) = 180(8-2) = 1080 degrees.

Any octagon has its interior angles add up to 1080 degrees.

-----------------------------

Let x be the smallest angle. The next angle up is x+1. After that is x+2 and so on until we reach x+7 as the 8th angle.

Add up those 8 angles, set the sum equal to 1080 and solve for x

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4)+(x+5)+(x+6)+(x+7) = 1080

8x+28 = 1080

8x = 1080-28

8x = 1052

x = 1052/8

x = 131.5

This is the smallest angle. The next angle up or the second smallest angle is x+1 = 131.5+1 = 132.5 degrees  (choice C)

The vector w=ai+bj is perpendicular to the line ax+by=c and parallel to the line bx−ay=c. It is also true that the acute angle between intersecting lines that do not cross at right angles is the same as the angle determined by vectors that are either normal to the lines or parallel to the lines. Use this information to find the acute angle between the lines below.

What is a function?

A statement, principle, or policy that creates the link between two variables is known as a function. Functions are found all across mathematics and are required for the creation of complex relationships.

The functions are given below.

f(x) = 3x³ + 9x² - 12x

g(x) = x - 1

h(x) = 3x² + 12x

The function f(x) can be written as

f(x) = 3x(x² + 3x - 4)

f(x) = 3x(x² + 4x - x - 4)

f(x) = 3x(x + 4)(x - 1)

f(x) = (x - 1)(3x² + 12)

Then divide the function f(x) by the function g(x), then we have

f(x) / g(x) = (x - 1)(3x² + 12) / (x - 1)

f(x) / g(x) = (3x² + 12)

f(x) / g(x) = h(x)

Given that abcd ~Jklm. Find the value of x, y, and z​

Answers

Answer:

x = 7.2

y = 10

z = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ABCD ~ JKLM, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding sides would be equal. Thus:

JK/AB = KL/BC = LM/CD = JM/AD

Substitute

12/x = y/6 = 15/9 = 10/z

✔️Find x:

12/x = 15/9

12/x = 5/3

Cross multiply

x*5 = 3*12

5x = 36

x = 36/5

x = 7.2

✔️Find y:

y/6 = 15/9

y/6 = 5/3

Cross multiply

y*3 = 5*6

3y = 30

y = 30/3

y = 10

✔️Find z:

15/9 = 10/z

5/3 = 10/z

Cross multiply

5*z = 10*3

5z = 30

z = 30/5

z = 6

4(x+9)=2x-6
Solve for x

Answers

Answer:

-21

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x+9) = 4x+36

4x+36 = 2x-6

    -36        -36

minus 36 from both sides

4x = 2x-42

2x = -42

-42/2 = -21

x = -21

Hi there!

We are given the equation below:

[tex] \large \boxed{4(x + 9) = 2x - 6}[/tex]

1. Expand 4 in the expression.

When expand in the expression, it is like multiply everything in the expression. So when we expand 4 in x+9, it becomes 4(x)+9(4).

[tex] \large{(4 \times x) + (9 \times 4) = 2x - 6} \\ \large{(4x) + (36) = 2x - 6}[/tex]

Cancel the brackets.

[tex] \large{4x + 36 = 2x - 6}[/tex]

2. Isolate x-term and solve for the variable.

Think it easy. If you want to isolate x-term then what should you do? Well simply swap sides, and change the operator/sign.

[tex] \large{4x - 2x = - 6 - 36}[/tex]

Finally, combine like terms.

[tex] \large{2x = - 42}[/tex]

Then divide both sides by 2 so we can finally leave only x-term.

[tex] \large{ \frac{2x}{2} = \frac{ - 42}{2} } \\ \large \boxed{x = - 21}[/tex]

3. Check the solution if it is right or wrong.

This step is optional but if you are not confident on your answer, this step is recommended.

To check the answer, we simply substitute the value of x which is -21 in the equation and see if both sides are equal or not. If both sides are equal then the answer is correct, if not then the answer is wrong. Therefore,

[tex] \large{4(x + 9) = 2x - 6 \longrightarrow 4( - 21 + 9) = 2 ( - 21) - 6} \\ \large{4( - 12) = - 42 - 6} \\ \large{ - 48 = - 48}[/tex]

Since both sides are equal when substitute in x = -21.

4. Answer

Hence, the answer for this equation is x = -21.

Answers

Answer:

$1827

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Cheryl is said to be paid an exempt salary. Then it can be said that Cheyk does not qualify for minimum wage or overtime pay, Hence, exempt payment is in terms or salary rather than wage. Similarly. Gross earning refers the amount a worker receives as income over a certain period of time. The gross income has not been subjected to tax charges or any form of deduction. Hence, it could be said to be the outright earning paid to an employee before any deduction is made.

Hence, Cheryl's gross weekly earning is $1827 per week.
