In rectangle ABCD, point E lies half way between sides AB and CD and halfway between sides AD and BC. If AB=3 and BC=2, what is the area of the shaded region? Write your answer as a decimal, if necessary. Do not include units in your answer.
Answers
Answer:
The area of the shaded region is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since point E lies halfway between AB and BC, the area of the shaded region (As) consists of two identical triangles with base equal to AB and height equal to half the measure of BC:
[tex]A_s=2 * A_t[/tex]
Where At is the area of each triangle.
[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{AB*BC/2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{AB*BC}{4}[/tex]
We know AB=3 and BC=2, thus:
[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{3*2}{4}=\frac{6}{4}[/tex]
Simplifying:
[tex]\displaystyle A_t=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Finally:
[tex]\displaystyle A_s=2 * \frac{3}{2}[/tex]
[tex]A_s=3[/tex]
The area of the shaded region is 3.
Note the area of the shaded region is half the area of the rectangle.

A company called Blurb prints books. According to its advertisement, you get a 15% discount on all orders of 51 or more copies of the same book (up to 100 copies). Is the cost per order a linear function of the number of copies you order (up to 100)?
Answers
Answer:
Yes, the cost per order is a linear function of the number of copies you order (up to 100).
Step-by-step explanation:
Let;
y = Total cost of order from one copy up to 100 copies or dependent variable
a = Cost of 50 copies or fixed intercept
x = Cost of 51 copies or more up to 100 copies or dependent variable, i.e. 51 = x [tex]\leq[/tex] 100
b = Coefficient of x = 1 - Discount rate = 1 - 15% = 1 - 0.15 = 0.85
We can therefore represent have a function as follows:
y = a + bx ........................ (1)
Substituting b = 0.85 into equation (1), we have:
y = a + 0.85x ...................... (2)
Equation (2) implies that as b equal to 51 or more up to 100, y also increases. Equation (2) is therefore an example of linear function which will give an upward sloping straight line and can be rewritten as:
y = f(x) = a + 0.85x ................. (3)
Therefore, the cost per order is a linear function of the number of copies you order (up to 100).
A -gallon [gal] quantity of molten (liquefied) plastic is going to be used to make a 1-foot [ft] by 8-inch [in] plastic block. If liters [L] of the plastic is lost in the manufacturing process, how thick is the final plastic block, in units of inches [in]?
Answers
Answer:
x = 1,77 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Total volume of molten plastic to make a block is
1 [gal] - 1 L (lost in the process) = 3,7854 - 1 = 2,7854
Now the volume of the block is:
1 foot * 8 inches * x ( thick of the block )
1 foot is 0,3048 meter and 1 inch is 0,0254 meter
Then in m³ the volume of the block is
0,3048 * 8 * 0,0254 * x = 0,06193536 * x [ m³ ]
That volume should be equal to 2,7854 / 1000
Therefore
0,06193536 * x = 2,7854 / 1000 x in m³
x = 2,7854 /61,93536 m
x = 0,044972 m and 1 m = 39,37 in
x = 1,77 in

6. Given WY with W(3, 7) and Y(13, -8), if X
partitions WY such that the ratio of WX to XY
is 3:2, find the coordinates of X.
Answers
Answer:
(5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the coordinates W(3, 7) and Y(13, -8) divided into the ratio 3:2
The midpoint formula is expressed as;
M(X, Y) = (ax1+bx2/a+b, ay1+by2/a+b)
a = 3,
b = 2
x1 = 3
y1 = 7
x2 = 13
y2 = -2
To get the coordinate of X
x = ax1+bx2/a+b
x = 3(3)+2(123/3+2
x = 9+26/5
x = 35/5
x= 7
y= ay1+by2/a+b
y = 3(7)+2(-8)/2+3
y = 21-16/5
y = 5/5
y = 1
Hence the coordinate of X is (x, y) = (5, 1)

Answer:
[tex]t=\dfrac{9\pm 3}{6}[/tex]
[tex]1\ \text{hour}[/tex]
[tex]2\ \text{hour}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
s = Speed of Emile = 6 miles/hour
d = Distance traveled by Emile = [tex](9\pm 3)\ \text{miles}[/tex]
Time taken to find the minimum and maximum time Emile ran for is
[tex]t=\dfrac{d}{s}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{9\pm 3}{6}[/tex]
The required equation is [tex]t=\dfrac{9\pm 3}{6}[/tex]
The time taken is
[tex]t=\dfrac{9-3}{6}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{6}{6}\\\Rightarrow t=1\ \text{hour}[/tex]
The minimum number of hours Emile runs is 1 hour.
[tex]t=\dfrac{9+3}{6}\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{12}{6}\\\Rightarrow t=2\ \text{hour}[/tex]
The maximum number of hours Emile runs is [tex]2\ \text{hour}[/tex].

According to the given condition is the question :
Two numbers a and b are such that the sum of 5% of a and 4% of b is two-third of the sum of 6% of a and 8% of b
⇒ (5% of a) + (4% of b) = (2/3) × [(6% of a) + (8% of b)
⇒ 0.05a + 0.04b = 2/3 × (0.06a + 0.08b)
⇒ 0.15a + 0.12b = 0.12a + 0.16b

Answer:
130 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a supplementary angle (or whatever the term was for two or more angles that add together to get 180 degrees). There is a total of 7x and 5 degrees. So you would set up the equation 180= 7x+5. Use the properties of equality and subtract 5 from both sides getting 175= 7x. Use the division property of equality to isolate the variable. Divide by 7 to get 25=x. Now just substitute for x in 5x+5 getting 125+5= 130. Sorry if I did a bad job at explaining

A plane can fly 360 mph in still air. If it can fly 210 miles downwind in the same amount of time it can fly 150 miles upwind, find the velocity of the wind. mph
Answers
Answer:
55 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that
v = velocity of the plane in still air,
w = velocity of the wind.
We are given that v = 360 mi/hr.
Using the equation
x = vt
where
x is the distance an object travels
v is the speed of the object
t is the time taken
While the plane is flying downwind, the velocity becomes v + w. On the other hand, if it is flying upwind, the velocity becomes v - w.
For a particular time t = T, distance traveled x = 210 mi at downwind, and x = 150 mi at upwind.
Creating an equation from the two, we have
210 mi = (360 + w)T
150 mi = (360 - w)T
Solving for T, we have
T = 210/(360 + w)
T = 150/(360 - w)
And since T is the same in both cases, we say that
So, 210/(360 + w) = 150/(360 - w)
Or on rearranging,
(360 + w)/210 = (360 - w)/150
(360)(150) + 150w = (210)(360) - 210w
55800 + 150w = 75600 - 210w
360w = 19800
Therefore, the speed of the wind is 55 mile per hour

A square lawn has a area 98ft a spin keeper placed at the center of the lawn sprays water in a circular pattern that just covers the lawn what is the radius of the circle
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the area of the square as A = 98ft²
The side length of the square will be equivalent to the diameter of the circle.
First we need to get the length of the square.
Area of a square = L^2
98 = L²
L = √98
L = 9.89 ft
Hence the diameter of the circle is 9.89 ft
radius = diameter/2
radius = 9.89/2
radius ≈ 4.95 feet
Hence the radius of the circle is approximately 4.95 feet
