Step-by-step explanation:

The number 2 is not a factor of 9. The correct option is D.

What is factor?

A number or algebraic expression that evenly divides another number or expression—i.e., leaves no remainder—is referred to as a factor in mathematics.

The given number is 9.

To find the factor of 9:

Number m that evenly divides another number 9.

In simple words, when we divide the number 9 by a number m.

We should get a whole number.

From the options,

9/1 = 9

9/3 = 3

9/9 = 1

9/2 = 4.5

Therefore, the number 2 is not the factor of 9.

Answers

Answer:

3 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The improper fraction 16/5 is called improper because the top number(the numerator) is bigger than the bottom number(the denominator) we "fix" this by dividing and creating a mixed number (it is called mixed because there is a whole part and a fraction part):

As 16÷5 >>> doing this division gives you 3 wholes and 1/5 leftover. We write this as

A triangle and a square are drawn on dotty paper with dots 1 cm apart. What is the area of the region coloured red? ​

Answers

Answer:

≈ 0.9 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if there is any easier way to solve this, I use 8th grade slope and line method to solve. suppose A is on origin, then the coordinates of triangle ABC are (0,0) (1,3) (4,1) and polygon DEFGH intersect line BC at F and G.

F is the intersect of y=2 and line BC, while G is intersect of x=3 and line BC.

Line BC: pass (1,3) and slope (m) = (1-3)/(4-1) = - 2/3,    

F(x,2)

(2-3) / (x-1) = -2/3            

2x-2 = 3       x = 2.5          

*F (2.5 , 2)

G (3,y)

(y-3) / (3-1) = -2/3     y = 5/3      

*G (3 , 5/3)

*point I (3 , 2)

segment FI = 3-2.5 = 0.5 = 1/2

segment GI = 2 - 5/3 = 1/3

area ΔFIG = (1/2 * 1/3) / 2 = 1/12 = 0.083

area of polygon  DEFGH (region colored RED) = 1 - 0.083 = 0.917 ≈ 0.9 cm²

Provide your

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two great ways to set up this problem and they both get you the same answer. First you know that the triangles are similar, this means they are the same shape, but not necessarily the same size. You can use ratios to compare the sizes of the sides. Just be sure to compare like things to like things.

One way: compare the small triangle's long side to short leg with the big triangle's long side to short leg. Like this:

13/5 = 39/a

OR...compare long side(sm) to long side(big) compared to short leg(sm) to short leg(big). Like this:

13/39 = 5/a

Amazingly, these equations will give you the same answer.

13a = 39*5

13a = 195

13a/13 = 195/13

a = 15

You can maybe see that the big triangle's side is 3 times bigger than the small one (13 times 3 is 39) So it works out that the 5 on the little triangle is 3 times bigger--15--on the large triangle!

If we expand (x-3)(x-2), we see that it equates to x²-5x+6, which is not what we want. The correct factors would be (x+3)(x-2) since the middle term's coefficient becomes 1 as 3-2=1 whereas -3-2=-5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angles A, D, and G are congruent then sum of given angles is eaqual to 180 degrees

x + 20 + 2x + x  = 180 add like terms

4x + 20 = 180 subtract 20 from both sides

4x = 160 divide both sides by 4

x = 40

Angles B, E, and H are congruent so E is also  = x + 20 and x = 40 so angle E = 60

Let f(x) = x+2/x+6

Answers

We can explicitly find the inverse. If [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex] is the inverse of [tex]f(x)[/tex], then

[tex]f\left(f^{-1}(x)\right) = \dfrac{f^{-1}(x)+2}{f^{-1}(x)+6} = x[/tex]

Solve for the inverse :

[tex]\dfrac{f^{-1}(x) + 2}{f^{-1}(x) + 6} = x[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{f^{-1}(x) + 6 - 4}{f^{-1}(x) + 6} = x[/tex]

[tex]1 - \dfrac4{f^{-1}(x) + 6} = x[/tex]

[tex]1 - x = \dfrac4{f^{-1}(x) + 6}[/tex]

[tex]f^{-1}(x) + 6 = \dfrac4{1-x}[/tex]

[tex]\implies f^{-1}(x) = \dfrac4{1-x} - 6[/tex]

Then when x = -6, we have

[tex]f^{-1}(-6) = \dfrac4{1-(-6)} - 6 = \dfrac47-6 = \boxed{-\dfrac{38}7}[/tex]

Alternatively, we can first solve for x such that [tex]f(x) = -6[/tex]. Then taking the inverse of both sides, [tex]x = f^{-1}(-6)[/tex]. (The difference in this method is that we don't compute the inverse for all x.)

We have

[tex]\dfrac{x+2}{x+6} = -6[/tex]

[tex]x + 2 = -6 (x + 6)[/tex]

[tex]x + 2 = -6x - 36[/tex]

[tex]7x = -38[/tex]

[tex]\implies x = \boxed{-\dfrac{38}7}[/tex]
