The line (y-1)=(2/3)(x+1) contains point (a,-3).

What is the value of a? Show
your work.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The line (y-1)=(2/3)(x+1) contains point (a,-3)

=> (-3-1) = (⅔)(a+1)

-4 = (⅔)(a+1(

(a+1)= -4 ÷ ⅔

a + 1 = -4 × 3/2

a+ 1 = -6

a = -6-1

a = -7

Answer 2

The value of 'a' will be;

⇒ a = - 7.

What is substitution method?

To find the value of any one of the variables from one equation in terms of the other variable is called the substitution method.

Given that;

The equation of line is,

⇒ (y - 1) = (2/3) (x + 1)

And, The point on the line = (a, - 3)

Now,

Since, The point on the line = (a, - 3)

Hence, It satisfy the equation of line.

Substitute x = a and y = - 3, we get;

⇒ (y - 1) = (2/3) (x + 1)

⇒ (- 3 - 1) = (2/3) (a + 1)

⇒ - 4 × 3 = 2a + 2

⇒ - 12 - 2 = 2a

⇒ 2a = - 14

⇒ a = - 7

Thus, The value of a = - 7

1 point Final grades are often computed using weighted averages. Some college professors use complicated weighted averages . Your college professor tells you he will give a 33%-67% split on grades between tests and homework where whichever average is higher will be the 67%. What will your final grade be if your homework average is 59 and your test average is 64? ​

Answers

Weighted average is the average of a set using different weight for each element in the set. The final grade when homework and test scores are 59 and 64 is 62.35

Given that:

[tex]Homework = 59[/tex]

[tex]Test = 64[/tex]

The test score is greater than the homework score. So, the test will be weighted using 67%, while the homework will be weighted using 33%.

The final grade is calculated as follows:

[tex]Grade = 67\% \times Test + 33\% \times Homework[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Grade = 67\% \times 64 + 33\% \times 59[/tex]

[tex]Grade = 42.88 + 19.47[/tex]

[tex]Grade = 62.35[/tex]

Hence, the final grade is 62.35

Step-by-step explanation:

As O is the mid point of the circle

Similarly, B also becomes the mid point of the line AC.

So, line OB divides AB and BC equally.

Hence, lines AB = AC, but they are asking to prove congruency of triangles.

So, u have to join OA and OC.

Same way,   line OB divides ∠OBA and ∠OBC.

I need the perimeter of this triangle. Round to the nearest tenth. Quickly please

Answers

Answer:

The perimeter of the triangle is about 17.1 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of its three side lengths.

We can see that the two legs of the triangle both measure five units.

To find the third segment, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem since the x-axis is perpendicular to the y-axis. Recall that:

[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2[/tex]

Where a and b are the two legs and c is the hypotenuse.

Our two legs are 5 and 5. Hence:

[tex](5)^2 + (5)^2 = c^2[/tex]

Solve for the hypotenuse:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} c &= \sqrt{(5)^2 + (5)^2} \\ &= \sqrt{2(5)^2} \\ &= 5\sqrt{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, our perimeter will be:

[tex]\displaystyle P = 10 + 5\sqrt{2} \approx 17.1 \text{ units}[/tex]

In conclusion, the perimeter of the triangle is about 17.1 units.

4. 1 less than twice the square of a number

Answers

Answer:

2(x^2)-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of a number is just the number squared. We don't know what the number is so I will just say it is x. So we have 2 times x^2. Then we have to minus 1 from that. So 2(x^2)-1.

Hope this helps! :D

The expression "1 less than twice the square of a number" can be represented mathematically as [tex]\(2x^2 - 1\)[/tex], where x is the variable representing the number.

Expression: [tex]\(2x^2 - 1\)[/tex]

Step 1: Square the number x:

[tex]\((x)^2 = x^2\)[/tex]

Step 2: Multiply the squared number by 2:

[tex]\(2 \cdot x^2 = 2x^2\)[/tex]

Step 3: Subtract 1 from the result of step 2:

[tex]\(2x^2 - 1\)[/tex]

This is the final expression that represents "1 less than twice the square of a number."

For example, if we substitute a specific value for x, let's say x = 3:

Step 1: Square the number: [tex]\(3^2 = 9\)[/tex]

Step 2: Twice the squared number: [tex]\(2 \cdot 9 = 18\)[/tex]

Step 3: Subtract 1: 18 - 1 = 17

So, when x = 3, the expression [tex]\(2x^2 - 1\)[/tex] evaluates to 17.
