Cevap: -10

Cevap

The value of

x_1 x_2 + y_1 y_2

is

-10

.

The correct answer is

-10

. To find the intersection points, substitute the linear equation

y = 2x - 4

into the quadratic equation

y = x^2 - 5x + 2

, which simplifies to

x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

. Factoring gives

(x-1)(x-6) = 0

, yielding

x

-coordinates

x_1 = 1

and

x_2 = 6

. Substituting these back into the linear equation gives the corresponding

y

-coordinates

y_1 = -2

and

y_2 = 8

. Evaluating the requested expression gives

(1)(6) + (-2)(8) = 6 - 16 = -10

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Isolate

y

in the linear equation.

y = 2x - 4

This allows for substitution into the quadratic equation.

2

Substitute

y = 2x - 4

into the quadratic equation

y = x^2 - 5x + 2

.

2x - 4 = x^2 - 5x + 2

Setting the two equations equal to each other helps find the x-coordinates of the intersection points.

3

Rearrange the equation into standard quadratic form.

x^2 - 7x + 6 = 0

This sets up the equation for factoring.

4

Factor the quadratic equation.

(x-1)(x-6) = 0

Factoring reveals the solutions for the x-coordinates.

5

Solve for the two x-coordinates.

x_1 = 1

and

x_2 = 6

These are the x-coordinates of the two intersection points.

6

Find the corresponding y-coordinates by substituting the x-values back into the linear equation.

For

x_1 = 1

:

y_1 = 2(1) - 4 = -2

. For

x_2 = 6

:

y_2 = 2(6) - 4 = 8

.

This gives the full coordinate pairs:

(1, -2)

and

(6, 8)

.

7

Calculate the value of the expression

x_1 x_2 + y_1 y_2

.

(1)(6) + (-2)(8) = 6 - 16 = -10

This provides the final required value.

Cevap: -4

Cevap

The correct answer is

-4

.

Subtracting 3 from both sides of

3 - 2x > 10

gives

-2x > 7

. When dividing both sides by

-2

, the inequality sign must be flipped, yielding

x < -3.5

. The greatest integer less than

-3.5

is

-4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Subtract 3 from both sides of the inequality to isolate the variable term.

-2x > 7

Subtracting 3 from both sides keeps the inequality balanced while moving the constant term to the right side.

2

Divide both sides by

-2

and reverse the inequality sign.

x < -3.5

Dividing or multiplying an inequality by a negative number requires reversing the direction of the inequality sign to maintain a true statement.

1

Determine the measure of the third angle,

\angle F

.

\angle F = 30^\circ

The sum of angles in a triangle is

180^\circ

. Since

\angle E = 90^\circ

and

\angle D = 60^\circ

, we calculate

\angle F = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 60^\circ = 30^\circ

.

In the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane, the circle defined by the equation $x^2 + y^2 - 12x - 4y + 31 = 0$ is translated $3$ units to the right and $5$ units down. A line passing through the origin with a non-zero slope $m$ is tangent to this translated circle. What is the value of $m$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: -0.75

Cevap

The correct answer is -0.75.

The correct answer is -0.75. By completing the square on the original equation, we find the circle

(x-6)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 9

with center

(6, 2)

and radius

3

. Translating the circle shifts the center to

(9, -3)

. A line passing through the origin with slope

m

has the equation

mx - y = 0

. For this line to be tangent to the circle, its perpendicular distance from the center

(9, -3)

must equal the radius

3

. Using the distance formula, we get the equation

\frac{|9m + 3|}{\sqrt{m^2 + 1}} = 3

. Simplifying gives

|3m + 1| = \sqrt{m^2 + 1}

. Squaring both sides yields

9m^2 + 6m + 1 = m^2 + 1

, which simplifies to

8m^2 + 6m = 0

. The non-zero solution is

m = -0.75

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Complete the square for the original circle equation

x^2 + y^2 - 12x - 4y + 31 = 0

.

(x - 6)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 9

.

Grouping the

x

and

y

terms and completing the square yields the standard form of a circle, showing that the original center is

(6, 2)

and the radius

r = \sqrt{9} = 3

.

2

Apply the translation of

3

units right and

5

units down to the center

(6, 2)

.

New center is

(6 + 3, 2 - 5) = (9, -3)

.

Translating a point in the coordinate plane shifts the coordinates directly:

x

-coordinate increases by

3

and

y

-coordinate decreases by

5

. The radius remains

3

.

3

Set up the distance from the new center

(9, -3)

to the tangent line

y = mx

.

Distance equation:

\frac{|9m - (-3)|}{\sqrt{m^2 + 1}} = 3

.

The line

y = mx

can be rewritten as

mx - y = 0

. The perpendicular distance from the center to a tangent line must equal the radius of the circle, which is

3

.

4

Simplify the distance equation and solve for

m

.

|3m + 1| = \sqrt{m^2 + 1}

.

Factoring out

3

from the numerator and dividing both sides by

3

simplifies the equation before squaring.

5

Square both sides of the equation and solve the resulting quadratic equation.

2m(4m + 3) = 0 \implies m = 0

or

m = -0.75

.

Squaring both sides yields

(3m + 1)^2 = m^2 + 1 \implies 9m^2 + 6m + 1 = m^2 + 1 \implies 8m^2 + 6m = 0

. Since we are looking for a non-zero slope, the only valid solution is

m = -0.75

.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $-96$

Cevap

-96

The correct term is

-96

. First, find the common ratio

r

by taking the ratio of the fifth term to the second term:

\frac{a_5}{a_2} = \frac{a_1 r^4}{a_1 r} = r^3

. Substituting the given values,

r^3 = \frac{12}{-3/2} = -8

, which gives

r = -2

. To find the eighth term, multiply the fifth term by the common ratio cubed:

a_8 = a_5 r^3 = 12 \times (-2)^3 = 12 \times (-8) = -96

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the ratio between the fifth term and the second term using the geometric sequence formula

a_n = a_1 r^{n-1}

.

\frac{a_5}{a_2} = \frac{a_1 r^4}{a_1 r} = r^3

This allows us to isolate the common ratio

r

without needing to calculate the first term

a_1

first.

2

Substitute the given values into the ratio and solve for

r

.

r^3 = \frac{12}{-3/2} = 12 \times \left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) = -8 \Rightarrow r = -2

Finding the common ratio is necessary to compute any subsequent terms in the sequence.

3

Use the common ratio to find the eighth term

a_8

by multiplying the fifth term

a_5

by

r^3

.

a_8 = a_5 r^{8-5} = 12 \times (-2)^3 = 12 \times (-8) = -96

Since

a_8 = a_5 r^3

, multiplying

12

by

-8

directly gives the eighth term.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $6x^5 - x^4 - 9x^2 - 9$

Cevap

The polynomial

6x^5 - x^4 - 9x^2 - 9

represents the remaining area.

To find the remaining area, subtract the area of the square shed from the area of the rectangular garden. The area of the garden is

3x^2(2x^3 - 5) = 6x^5 - 15x^2

. The area of the shed is

(x^2 - 3)^2 = x^4 - 6x^2 + 9

. Subtracting the two gives

(6x^5 - 15x^2) - (x^4 - 6x^2 + 9) = 6x^5 - 15x^2 - x^4 + 6x^2 - 9 = 6x^5 - x^4 - 9x^2 - 9

, which represents the correct remaining garden space.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the area of the rectangular garden.

\text{Area}_{\text{garden}} = 3x^2(2x^3 - 5) = 6x^5 - 15x^2

The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width. Applying the distributive property and the exponent rule for multiplication (

x^a \cdot x^b = x^{a+b}

), we get

3x^2 \cdot 2x^3 = 6x^5

and

3x^2 \cdot (-5) = -15x^2

.

2

Calculate the area of the square storage shed.

\text{Area}_{\text{shed}} = (x^2 - 3)^2 = x^4 - 6x^2 + 9

The area of a square is the square of its side length. We expand

(x^2 - 3)^2

using the binomial square pattern

(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2

, which gives

(x^2)^2 - 2(x^2)(3) + (-3)^2 = x^4 - 6x^2 + 9

.

3

Subtract the area of the shed from the area of the garden and simplify.

\text{Remaining Area} = 6x^5 - x^4 - 9x^2 - 9

We subtract the shed's area from the garden's area:

(6x^5 - 15x^2) - (x^4 - 6x^2 + 9)

. Distributing the negative sign gives

6x^5 - 15x^2 - x^4 + 6x^2 - 9

. Combining like terms and writing in descending order yields

6x^5 - x^4 - 9x^2 - 9

.

cm.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the third angle of right triangle

ABC

.

\angle C = 30^\circ

The sum of angles in a triangle is

180^\circ

. Since

\angle B = 90^\circ

and

\angle A = 60^\circ

, we have

\angle C = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 60^\circ = 30^\circ

.

Calculate the length of the side

BC

BC = 10\sqrt{3}

cm

In the

30^\circ\text{-}60^\circ\text{-}90^\circ

ABC

, the side

BC

is opposite the

60^\circ

angle, so its length is the hypotenuse

AC

BC = 20 \times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 10\sqrt{3}

.

3

Find the length of segment

DC

.

DC = 8\sqrt{3}

cm

Since point

D

lies on segment

BC

, the length of

DC

is the total length of

\triangle DEC

Since segment

\angle DEC = 90^\circ

. Triangle

DEC

shares the angle

\angle C = 30^\circ

EC = 12

cm

In the

There are 2 possible integer values for

x

.

The correct answer is the value of 2. By expressing the side lengths as

3k

,

4k

, and

xk

where

k

must be a positive integer, the perimeter equation becomes

k(7 + x) = 36

. Solving for

7 + x

yields factors of

36

greater than

7

, which are

9, 12, 18,

and

36

. These correspond to

x

values of

2, 5, 11,

and

29

. Checking each set of side lengths against the Triangle Inequality Theorem shows that only the sets corresponding to

x = 2

(sides

12, 16, 8

) and

x = 5

(sides

9, 12, 15

) form valid triangles.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define the side lengths using a multiplier

k

.

Let the side lengths of the triangle be

3k

,

4k

, and

xk

for some positive multiplier

k

. Since all three side lengths must be integers, the difference between the first two sides,

4k - 3k = k

, must also be an integer. Thus,

k

must be a positive integer.

This establishes that the scaling factor

k

is a positive integer, allowing us to find discrete solutions.

2

Set up the perimeter equation and express

x

in terms of

k

.

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:

3k + 4k + xk = 36 \implies k(7 + x) = 36

. Since

k

and

x

are positive integers,

7 + x

must be a factor of

36

that is greater than

7

.

This constrains the possible values of

x

to the factors of

36

that are larger than

7

.

3

Find the potential values of

x

and their corresponding side lengths.

The factors of

36

greater than

7

are

9, 12, 18,

and

36

. This yields four potential cases:
- If

7+x = 9 \implies x = 2

, then

k = 4

, and the sides are

12, 16, 8

.
- If

7+x = 12 \implies x = 5

, then

k = 3

, and the sides are

9, 12, 15

.
- If

7+x = 18 \implies x = 11

, then

k = 2

, and the sides are

6, 8, 22

.
- If

7+x = 36 \implies x = 29

, then

k = 1

, and the sides are

3, 4, 29

.

This identifies all mathematically possible configurations before checking if they can physically form a triangle.

4

Apply the Triangle Inequality Theorem to each case.

The sum of the lengths of any two sides must be strictly greater than the length of the remaining side:
- For sides

12, 16, 8

:

12 + 8 = 20 > 16

(Valid).
- For sides

9, 12, 15

:

9 + 12 = 21 > 15

(Valid).
- For sides

6, 8, 22

:

6 + 8 = 14 < 22

(Invalid).
- For sides

3, 4, 29

:

3 + 4 = 7 < 29

(Invalid).
Only the cases where

x = 2

and

x = 5

form valid triangles.

A convex pentagon has four interior angles that measure $80^\circ$ , $110^\circ$ , $120^\circ$ , and $130^\circ$ . What is the degree measure of the fifth interior angle?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 100

Cevap

The degree measure of the fifth interior angle is

100^\circ

.

The sum of the interior angles of a pentagon (

n = 5

) is

(5 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 540^\circ

. The sum of the four given angles is

80^\circ + 110^\circ + 120^\circ + 130^\circ = 440^\circ

. The measure of the fifth angle is the difference between these two values:

540^\circ - 440^\circ = 100^\circ

.

Find the sum of the interior angles of a convex pentagon.

The sum of the interior angles is

540^\circ

.

The sum of the interior angles of any

n

-sided convex polygon is calculated using the formula

(n - 2) \times 180^\circ

. For a pentagon,

n = 5

, which gives

(5 - 2) \times 180^\circ = 3 \times 180^\circ = 540^\circ

.

A line is defined by the equation $y = 2x + k$ , where $k$ is a constant. A parabola is defined by the equation $y = x^2 - 4x + 14$ . If the line and the parabola intersect at exactly one point in the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane, what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 5

Cevap

The value of the constant

k

must be 5.

To find the intersection of the line and the parabola, set their equations equal to each other:

x^2 - 4x + 14 = 2x + k

. Rearranging this into standard quadratic form gives

x^2 - 6x + (14 - k) = 0

. For the system to have exactly one solution, the discriminant of this quadratic equation must be zero. The discriminant is

b^2 - 4ac = (-6)^2 - 4(1)(14 - k) = 36 - 56 + 4k = 4k - 20

. Setting

4k - 20 = 0

yields

k = 5

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Equate the linear and quadratic expressions to find their intersection.

x^2 - 4x + 14 = 2x + k

Setting the two equations equal to each other allows us to find the

x

-coordinates of any intersection points.

2

Rearrange the terms to write the equation in standard quadratic form,

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

.

x^2 - 6x + (14 - k) = 0

Subtracting

2x

and

k

from both sides simplifies the equation into a quadratic form where

a = 1

,

b = -6

, and

c = 14 - k

.

3

Apply the condition for exactly one intersection point by setting the discriminant to zero.

(-6)^2 - 4(1)(14 - k) = 0

A quadratic equation has exactly one real root if and only if its discriminant,

b^2 - 4ac

, is equal to zero.

4

Solve the linear equation for

k

.

k = 5

Expanding the equation yields

36 - 56 + 4k = 0

, which simplifies to

4k - 20 = 0

A custom printing company uses a linear relationship to determine the total cost of printing t-shirts. The table below displays the total cost, $C$ , in dollars, for printing $x$ t-shirts:

Number of Shirts ( $x$ )	Total Cost ( $C$ )
15	\$162.50

\$10.83

\$12.50

\$50.00

\$112.50

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: \$50.00

Cevap

The one-time setup fee is \$50.00.

The correct answer of \

50.00 is found by first determining the constant rate of change (slope) from the table, which is \$7.50 per shirt. Substituting this rate and the data point for 15 shirts into the linear model

C = mx + b

gives

162.50 = 7.50(15) + b

. Solving for the y-intercept

b

yields

50.00, which represents the one-time setup fee.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the constant charge per t-shirt (the slope,

m

) by finding the change in cost divided by the change in the number of shirts between two data points.

m = \frac{237.50 - 162.50}{25 - 15} = \frac{75.00}{10} = 7.50

Since the relationship is linear, the rate of change (cost per shirt) remains constant.

2

Write the linear equation representing the total cost:

C = 7.50x + b

, where

b

represents the one-time setup fee.

C = 7.50x + b

This sets up the slope-intercept form of the linear relationship.

3

Substitute one of the points from the table, such as

(15, 162.50)

, into the equation to solve for

b

.

162.50 = 7.50(15) + b

162.50 = 112.50 + b

b = 50.00

Using a known coordinate point allows us to isolate and solve for the unknown y-intercept (the setup fee).

The correct answer is

-\frac{1}{2}

. The third term of the arithmetic sequence is

a_3 = a_1 + 2d = 2 + 2d

. The third term of the geometric sequence is

g_3 = g_1 r^2 = 4r^2

. Given that

d = r

, we set the two terms equal:

2 + 2d = 4d^2

. Rearranging and dividing by

2

yields

2d^2 - d - 1 = 0

, which factors as

(2d + 1)(d - 1) = 0

. Since the problem specifies that

d \neq 1

, the only valid solution is

d = -\frac{1}{2}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Write the formulas for the third term of both the arithmetic and geometric sequences.

For the arithmetic sequence:

a_3 = a_1 + (3 - 1)d = 2 + 2d

. For the geometric sequence:

g_3 = g_1 \cdot r^{3 - 1} = 4r^2

.

This establishes the algebraic expressions for the third terms using the given first terms.

2

Substitute

d

for

r

and set the two expressions equal to each other.

Since

d = r

, we substitute

d

into the geometric term to get

g_3 = 4d^2

. Setting them equal gives

2 + 2d = 4d^2

.

The problem states that the third terms are equal and that the common difference equals the common ratio.

3

Solve the quadratic equation

4d^2 - 2d - 2 = 0

for

d

Divide the equation by

d = -\frac{1}{2}

and

d = 1

d \neq 1

. Subtracting

kx

from both sides and grouping like terms gives

x^2 - (6 + k)x + 9 = 0

. For a quadratic equation to have exactly one real solution, its discriminant must be equal to zero. Thus, we set

6 + k = 6

or

6 + k = -6
