In the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane, the triangular region $R$ is bounded by the lines $y = 2x$ , $y = -x + 9$ , and the $x$ -axis. A vertical line $x = k$ (where $0 < k < 9$ ) divides region $R$ into two sub-regions. If the area of the sub-region to the right of the line $x = k$ is exactly $8$ , what is the value of $k$ ?

Cevap: 5

Cevap

5

The boundary lines intersect to form a triangle with vertices at

(0, 0)

,

(9, 0)

, and

(3, 6)

. Since the area to the right of

x = k

is

8

, and the total area of the triangle is

27

,

k

must be greater than

3

. The region to the right of

x = k

is a right triangle with a base of

9 - k

and a height of

9 - k

. Setting its area

\frac{1}{2}(9 - k)^2

equal to

8

yields

(9 - k)^2 = 16

, which gives

9 - k = 4

(since

k < 9

), and thus

k = 5

.

1

Find the vertices of the triangular region

R

by finding the intersection points of the boundary lines

y = 2x

,

y = -x + 9

, and

y = 0

.

The vertices of the triangle are

A(0, 0)

,

B(9, 0)

, and

C(3, 6)

.

This establishes the boundaries and shape of the triangular region.

2

Determine which side of the peak

x = 3

the vertical line

x = k

must lie. Calculate the total area and the area of the left portion.

The total area of the triangle is

27

. The area to the left of the peak

x = 3

is

9

. Since the area of the region to the right of

x = k

is

8

, which is less than

18

,

k

must be greater than or equal to

3

.

This determines the geometric shape of the sub-region to the right of

x = k

as a right triangle.

3

Set up the area formula for the right-hand triangle with vertices

(k, 0)

,

(9, 0)

, and

(k, -k + 9)

, and set it equal to

8

.

The area is

\frac{1}{2}(9 - k)^2 = 8

, which simplifies to

(9 - k)^2 = 16

.

This relates the given area to the unknown coordinate

k

.

4

Solve the equation

(9 - k)^2 = 16

for

k

, keeping in mind that

k < 9

.

Taking the square root gives

9 - k = 4 \implies k = 5

.

This yields the final value of

k

.

\frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 6 = 18

. The smaller triangle to the right of

x = k

has an area of

8

and is similar to the larger triangle. The ratio of their areas is

\frac{8}{18} = \frac{4}{9}

, which means the ratio of their linear dimensions is

\sqrt{\frac{4}{9}} = \frac{2}{3}

. The base of the larger triangle is

9 - 3 = 6

, so the base of the smaller triangle must be

6 \times \frac{2}{3} = 4

. This gives

9 - k = 4 \implies k = 5

In $\triangle ABC$ , point $D$ lies on side $AC$ . If $AB = BD$ , the measure of $\angle A$ is $70^\circ$ , and the measure of $\angle C$ is $25^\circ$ , what is the measure, in degrees, of $\angle DBC$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 45

Cevap

The measure of

\angle DBC

is 45 degrees.

In

\triangle ABD

, since

AB = BD

, the triangle is isosceles and the base angles opposite these sides are equal. Therefore, the measure of

\angle ADB

is equal to the measure of

\angle A

, which is

70^\circ

. Because points

A

,

D

, and

C

form a straight line, the angles

\angle ADB

and

\angle BDC

are supplementary, meaning the measure of

\angle BDC = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ

. The sum of the interior angles in

\triangle BCD

must be

180^\circ

, so the measure of

\angle DBC = 180^\circ - 110^\circ - 25^\circ = 45^\circ

An architect is designing a triangular window with side lengths, in feet, represented by $x$ , $3x - 2$ , and $18$ . If the value of $x$ must be an integer, what is the sum of all possible values of $x$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 30

Cevap

The sum of all possible integer values of

x

is 30.

By applying the Triangle Inequality Theorem, the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be strictly greater than the third side. This yields the inequalities

x + (3x - 2) > 18

(which simplifies to

x > 5

),

x + 18 > 3x - 2

(which simplifies to

x < 10

), and

(3x - 2) + 18 > x

(which simplifies to

x > -8

). The intersection of these inequalities is

5 < x < 10

. Since

x

must be an integer, the possible values are

6

,

7

,

8

, and

9

. The sum of these values is

6 + 7 + 8 + 9 = 30

1

Set up the first triangle inequality constraint where the sum of the two variable sides is greater than the constant side.

x + (3x - 2) > 18 \implies 4x > 20 \implies x > 5

The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that the sum of any two sides of a triangle must be strictly greater than the third side.

2

Set up the second triangle inequality constraint where the sum of

x

and the constant side is greater than the other variable side.

x + 18 > 3x - 2 \implies 20 > 2x \implies x < 10

To satisfy the Triangle Inequality Theorem for all combinations of sides.

3

Set up the third triangle inequality constraint where the sum of the second variable side and the constant side is greater than the first variable side.

(3x - 2) + 18 > x \implies 2x > -16 \implies x > -8

To ensure the third side combination is mathematically valid.

A technician uses a linear model to estimate the time, $t$ hours, required to complete a project. The estimate satisfies the equation:

\frac{2}{3}(t - 12) + \frac{5}{6}(t + 6) = 18

What is the value of $t$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 14

Cevap

The value of

t

is

14

.

To solve the linear equation, we first multiply all terms by the least common multiple of the denominators, which is

6

. This simplifies the equation to

4(t - 12) + 5(t + 6) = 108

. Distributing the terms gives

4t - 48 + 5t + 30 = 108

. Combining like terms yields

9t - 18 = 108

. Adding

18

to both sides gives

9t = 126

. Finally, dividing by

9

gives

t = 14

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply both sides of the equation by

6

to eliminate the denominators.

4(t - 12) + 5(t + 6) = 108

Multiplying by the least common multiple of the denominators clears the fractions, making the linear equation easier to solve.

2

Apply the distributive property to expand the terms.

4t - 48 + 5t + 30 = 108

Distributing the constants allows us to group like terms.

3

Combine the variable terms and the constant terms on the left side.

9t - 18 = 108

Simplifying the expression is a necessary step before isolating the variable.

4

Add

18

to both sides of the equation.

9t = 126

Adding the constant to both sides isolates the variable term on the left side.

5

Divide both sides of the equation by

9

to solve for

t

degrees.

To find the measure of

\angle Z

, we first determine the measure of

\angle Y

. Since

\angle Y

is three times the measure of

\angle X

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 2

Cevap

The correct answer is 2.

Substituting

u = 2^a

turns the equation into

u^2 - 6u + 8 = 0

. Factoring gives

(u-2)(u-4)=0

, meaning

u=2

or

u=4

. Reversing the substitution gives

2^a = 2 \implies a=1

and

2^a = 4 \implies a=2

. Since

a > 1.5

, the correct value is 2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the equation in terms of base 2.

(2^a)^2 - 6(2^a) + 8 = 0

Since 4 is

2^2

and

2^{a+1} = 2 \cdot 2^a

, expressing all terms in base 2 allows for algebraic substitution.

2

Substitute

u = 2^a

to form a quadratic equation.

u^2 - 6u + 8 = 0

Substitution simplifies the exponential equation into a standard quadratic form.

3

Factor the quadratic equation.

(u-2)(u-4) = 0

Factoring allows us to find the roots of the quadratic equation.

4

Solve for the variable

a

Divide the numerator by the denominator using the quotient rule for exponents

\frac{w^6 z^{-4}}{w^2 z^{2k}} = w^4 z^{-4-2k}

When dividing terms with the same base, subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator:

\frac{x^a}{x^b} = x^{a-b}

4

Equate the exponent of

z

in the simplified expression to the exponent of

Both teams will have packed the same total number of boxes

6

hours after Team A begins.

The correct answer is

6

. Let

x

be the number of hours Team A packs. Team B begins 1.5 hours later, so Team B packs for

x - 1.5

hours. Setting their total boxes packed equal gives

15x = 20(x - 1.5)

. Distributing yields

15x = 20x - 30

. Subtracting

20x

from both sides gives

-5x = -30

, which simplifies to

x = 6

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define the variable for time and identify the time difference.

Let

x

be the number of hours Team A packs. Since Team B starts 1 hour and 30 minutes (which is

1.5

hours) later, Team B's time is represented as

x - 1.5

hours.

Establishing correct algebraic representations for time is necessary to set up the equation.

2

Set up an equation equating the total boxes packed by both teams.

The equation is

15x = 20(x - 1.5)

.

Since both teams pack a constant number of boxes per hour, multiplying their rate by their active time gives the total boxes packed.

3

Solve the linear equation for

x

Distribute the 20:

15x = 20x - 30

. Subtract

20x

, the given point

(8, 2)

establishes that

b = 2 - 8m

. Since the

x

-intercept is

-\frac{b}{m}

, the product of the intercepts is

-\frac{b^2}{m}

. Setting this product to

64

gives

-\frac{(2-8m)^2}{m} = 64

, which simplifies to the quadratic equation

16m^2 + 8m + 1 = 0

. Factoring this perfect square trinomial gives

(4m + 1)^2 = 0

, which yields the unique solution

m = -0.25

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Express the

y

-intercept in terms of

m

.

b = 2 - 8m

The line equation is

y = mx + b

and it passes through

(8, 2)

, so

2 = 8(m) + b

.

2

Express the

x

-intercept in terms of

m

.

x = -\frac{b}{m}

The

x

-intercept is the value of

x

when

y = 0

in the line equation

y = mx + b

.

3

Write the product of the intercepts and set it equal to

64

.

b^2 = -64m

The product of the intercepts is

b \cdot \left(-\frac{b}{m}\right) = -\frac{b^2}{m} = 64

.

4

Substitute

b = 2 - 8m

into the product equation and simplify to a quadratic equation.

64m^2 + 32m + 4 = 0

Substituting

b

gives

(2 - 8m)^2 = -64m

. Expanding and combining like terms yields the quadratic equation.

5

Solve the quadratic equation for

m

.

m = -0.25

Dividing by

4

gives

16m^2 + 8m + 1 = (4m + 1)^2 = 0

, which has the single real solution

m = -0.25

.

An exterior angle of a triangle measures $135^\circ$ . The two nonadjacent interior angles of the triangle have measures in the ratio $2:3$ . What is the measure, in degrees, of the largest interior angle of the triangle?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 81

Cevap

The measure of the largest interior angle of the triangle is 81 degrees.

According to the Exterior Angle Theorem, the sum of the two nonadjacent interior angles equals the measure of the exterior angle:

2x + 3x = 135

, which simplifies to

5x = 135

and gives

x = 27

. The nonadjacent interior angles are

2(27) = 54^\circ

and

3(27) = 81^\circ

. The adjacent interior angle is

180^\circ - 135^\circ = 45^\circ

. Comparing the three angles (

45^\circ

,

54^\circ

,

81^\circ

), the largest is

81^\circ

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Use the Exterior Angle Theorem to relate the two nonadjacent interior angles to the given exterior angle.

Equation:

2x + 3x = 135

The theorem states that the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two nonadjacent interior angles.

2

Solve the linear equation for

x

.

x = 27

Combine like terms to get

5x = 135

, then divide both sides by 5.

3

Calculate the measures of the two nonadjacent interior angles.

First angle:

2(27) = 54^\circ

; Second angle:

3(27) = 81^\circ

Multiply each part of the ratio by the scale factor

x = 27

.

4

Calculate the measure of the remaining interior angle.

Adjacent angle:

180^\circ - 135^\circ = 45^\circ

An interior angle and its adjacent exterior angle lie on a straight line and are supplementary (they sum to

180^\circ

).

5

Compare the three interior angle measures to find the largest.

The largest angle is

81^\circ

.

Comparing

45^\circ

,

54^\circ

, and

81^\circ

shows that

81^\circ

is the maximum value.

A pet care service, Canine Care, charges a flat monthly registration fee of $25 plus$ 15 per dog walk. A competing service, Paws & Claws, charges a flat monthly registration fee of $45 plus$ 10 per dog walk. If a client's total monthly cost with Canine Care is $30 more than their total monthly cost with Paws & Claws for the same number of walks, how many dog walks did the client's dog receive during that month?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 10

Cevap

The client's dog received 10 dog walks during the month.

The correct answer is 10. By translating the verbal descriptions into algebraic expressions, we find that Canine Care's monthly cost is

15w + 25

and Paws & Claws' monthly cost is

10w + 45

. Setting up the equation where Canine Care is

30

more than Paws & Claws gives

15w + 25 = 10w + 45 + 30

. Simplifying the right side results in

15w + 25 = 10w + 75

. Subtracting

10w

from both sides gives

5w + 25 = 75

. Subtracting

25

from both sides gives

5w = 50

, and dividing by

5

yields

w = 10

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

In the standard $(x, y)$ coordinate plane, line $L_1$ has a negative slope and passes through the point $(1, 4)$ . Line $L_2$ has a positive slope and passes through the point $(7, 3)$ . Both lines intersect the $x$ -axis at the same point $P$ . If the product of the slopes of $L_1$ and $L_2$ is $-\frac{4}{3}$ , and line $L_3$ is perpendicular to $L_1$ and passes through the point $(2, -2)$ , what is the $y$ -intercept of $L_3$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: -3.5

Cevap

The

y

-intercept of line

L_3

is

-3.5

.

By writing the slope of the first line as

\frac{-4}{x_p - 1}

and the slope of the second line as

\frac{-3}{x_p - 7}

, their product is set to

-\frac{4}{3}

. Solving the resulting quadratic equation

(x_p - 4)^2 = 0

yields

x_p = 4

. Substituting this back gives a slope of

-\frac{4}{3}

for the first line. The perpendicular line must have a slope of

\frac{3}{4}

. Using the point-slope formula with point

(2, -2)

and slope

\frac{3}{4}

gives the line

y = \frac{3}{4}x - 3.5

b = 5

Solving the factored equation yields

b = 5

If $\log_2(x + 5) + \log_2(x - 1) = 4$ , what is the value of $x$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The correct answer is 3.

The correct answer is 3. Combining the logarithmic terms using the product property gives

\log_2((x + 5)(x - 1)) = 4

. Converting this to exponential form yields

(x + 5)(x - 1) = 2^4 = 16

. Expanding and rewriting in standard form gives

x^2 + 4x - 21 = 0

, which factors as

(x + 7)(x - 3) = 0

. This gives potential solutions of

x = 3

and

x = -7

. However,

x = -7

results in negative arguments for the logarithms in the original equation, making it extraneous. Thus, the only valid solution is 3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Apply the product property of logarithms to combine the terms on the left side of the equation.

\log_2((x + 5)(x - 1)) = 4

The sum of logarithms with the same base is equal to the logarithm of their product:

\log_b(A) + \log_b(B) = \log_b(AB)

.

2

Convert the logarithmic equation to its equivalent exponential form.

(x + 5)(x - 1) = 2^4

By definition,

\log_b(Y) = C

is equivalent to

b^C = Y

.

3

Expand the product and simplify the equation into standard quadratic form.

x^2 + 4x - 21 = 0

Expanding

(x + 5)(x - 1)

yields

x^2 + 4x - 5

. Subtracting 16 from both sides gives the standard quadratic form

Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0

.

4

Factor the quadratic equation to find the potential values of

x

.

(x + 7)(x - 3) = 0

, so

x = -7

or

x = 3

We need two numbers that multiply to

-21

and add to

4

, which are

7

and

-3

.

5

Check the potential solutions against the domain of the original logarithmic equation.

x = 3

The arguments of the logarithms,

x + 5

and

x - 1

, must be strictly positive. For

x = -7

, the arguments are negative, so

x = -7

is an extraneous solution. For

x = 3

, both arguments are positive, so

x = 3

is the only valid solution.
