The epicenter of an earthquake is the point on Earth’s surface directly above the earthquake’s origin. A seismograph can be used to determine the distance to the epicenter of an earthquake. Seismographs are needed in three different places to locate an earthquake’s epicenter. Find the location of the earthquake’s epicenter if it is 3 miles away from (2,1) , 4 miles away from (5,-3) , and 5 miles away from (10,1)

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the calculations, the location of the earthquake’s epicenter is at (-1, 1).

What is an epicenter?

An epicenter can be defined as the point on the surface of planet Earth, which is perpendicular to the hypocenter (focus) and directly above the earthquake’s origin. Also, it indicates where the seismic waves from an earthquake are most intense.

For this exercise, we would set the epicenter at x and y. Using the equation of a circle, we have the following:

At A (2, 1) and 3 miles away;

[tex](y-1)^2+(x-2)^2=3^2[/tex]   ......equation 1.

At B (-5, 3) and 4 miles away;

[tex](y-3)^2+(x-(-5))^2=4^2\\\\(y-3)^2+(x+5)^2=4^2[/tex]   ......equation 2.

At C (10, 1) and 5 miles away;

[tex](y-1)^2+(x-10)^2=5^2[/tex]   ......equation 3.

Subtracting eqn. 2 from eqn. 1, we have:

[tex](x-2)^2-[(x+5)^2]=3^2-4^2\\\\x^2-2x-2x+4-[(x^2+5x+5x+25)]=9-16\\\\x^2-4x+4-x^2-10x-25=-7\\\\-14x-21=-7\\\\-14x=-7+21\\\\-14x=14\\\\x=\frac{-14}{14}[/tex]

x = -1 when y = 1.

In the figure below, find the exact value of y. (Do not approximate your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

y = 64 / 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use Similar Triangle Theorem to find y.

The ratio of the "long leg to hypotenuse" of the large triangle is equal to the ratio of the "long leg to hypotenuse" of the medium triangle.

Therefore,

⇒ 8 : y = 7 : 8

Writing as fractions:

⇒ 8 / y = 7 / 8

Cross multiply:

⇒ 8 × 8 = 7 × y

⇒ 64 = 7y

divide both sides by 7

⇒ y = 64 / 7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8 : y = 7 : 8

8 / y = 7 / 8

8 × 8 = 7 × y

64 = 7y

y = 64 / 7

y = 9.14

Natasha Romanov is really good at playing darts. She can hit a bullseye about 95% of the time. How many throws will she
need in order for her to hit 76 bullseyes?

Answers

Given that,

Natasha can hit a bullseye about 95% of the time

we've to find the number of throws will she

need in order for her to hit 76 bullseyes

for that, we'll divide 76 by 95%

[tex] \huge \rightarrow \: 76 \div \frac{95}{100} = \frac{76}{\frac{95}{100} } \\ [/tex]

[tex] \huge \rightarrow76 \times \frac{100}{95} [/tex]

[tex] \huge \rightarrow80[/tex]

Hence, she need 80 bullseye in order for her to hit 76 bullseyes

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(hit a bulleye) = 95% = 0.95

P(hit 2x bulleyes) = 0.95*0.95

P(hit 76x bulleyes) = 0.95^76

= 0.02

So she will hit 76 bulleyes on average every 1/0.02 = 50 times.

Total number of throws = 50 x  76

= 3800

became 8:11. How much money did Jill and Kelly have, respectively, at first?

Answers

Answer:

Let c be the common factor between Jill and Kelly’s money. Then:

4n-156 / 5n-156=8/11

So:

44n-1716=40n-1248

4n=468

n=117

Jill had 4n, or $468 to begin with

Kelly had 5n, or $585 to begin with ………..

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x=Jill's money

y=Kelly's money

x/y=4/5

(x-156)/(y-156)=8/11

x/y=4/5 -------->5x=4y --------->y=5x/4

cross multiply with the above proportion

11(x-156)=8(y-156)

11x-1716=8y-1248

substitute y=5x/4

11x-1716=8(5x/4)-1248

11x-1716=10x-1248

11x-10x=1716-1248

x=$468 for Jill  (answer)

x/y=4/5

468/y=4/5

multiply 4 by 117 to get 468

multiply 5 by 117 to get 585

uses 14 sheets of drywall. To the nearest percent, what is the percent
error?

Answers

Answer:

Percent error is approx. 22%

Step-by-step explanation:

So to do this you need to know the formula for percent error, which is

percent error = l measured - theoretical / theoretical l * 100%

With this just plug in 18 (real) and 14 (measured).

percent error = l 14 - 18 / 18 l * 100%

percent error = l -4 / 18 l *100%

percent error = l -2/9 l *100%

You then do absolute value because the percent error must be positive not negative! So -2/9 becomes 2/9. You then divide 2/9 to get approx. 0.22... and you muliply by 100% to get 22%.

4. m∠3 = 74° ~ again, it is supplementary to ∠1. It is also equal to ∠2

5. m∠8 = 114° ~ angles opposite of each other (like 1 and 4) are equal (as we know from question 4). From there, we can use the corresponding angle theorem, so we know 4 and 8 are congruent. (also you can just know 1 and 8 are congruent by using the opposite exterior angles theorem)

6. m∠6 = 124° ~ using same-side interior angle theorem, they are supplementary angles (or the corresponding angles theorem mentioned above, make 4 congruent to 8, and 8 is supplementary to 6)

Answers

Answer: Choice D

11pi/4

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

Explanation:

The angles shown add to: 120+45+30 = 195 degrees.

The remaining bit needed to get to a full 360 degree circle is 360-195 = 165 degrees, which is the measure of central angle AFD.

This means the arc AED is 165/360 of the full circle perimeter or circumference.

The fraction 165/360 reduces to 11/24 after dividing both parts by the GCF 15

So we can say that the length of arc AED is exactly 11/24 of the full circumference.

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

The length FB is 3 units (radius), so EB is 6 units (diameter)

This leads to,

C = circumference

C = pi*diameter

C = pi*6

C = 6pi

That's the full circumference, but we only want 11/24 of it to get arc AED.

arc AED = (11/24)*(full circumference)

arc AED = (11/24)*(6pi)

arc AED = 11pi/4 which is choice D

I'm assuming choice D says 11pi/4

write an equation for the function that includes the points (2, 100) and (3, 1000)

Answers

Answer:

y=900x-1700

Step-by-step explanation:

(sorry if the explanation is long)

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (2,100), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=2 and y1=100.

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (3,1000), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=3 and y2=1000.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

m=

1000 - 100

3 - 2

or...

m=

900

1

or...

m=900

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=900x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(2,100). When x of the line is 2, y of the line must be 100.

(3,1000). When x of the line is 3, y of the line must be 1000.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=900x+b. b is what we want, the 900 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (2,100) and (3,1000).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(2,100). y=mx+b or 100=900 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=100-(900)(2). b=-1700.

(3,1000). y=mx+b or 1000=900 × 3+b, or solving for b: b=1000-(900)(3). b=-1700.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(2,100) and (3,1000)

is

y=900x-1700

Answer:

y=900x-1700
