human | Two points $A(x_1, y_1)$ and $B(x_2, y_2)$ are chosen on the graph of $f(x) = \ln x$, with $0 < x_1 < x_2$. The points $C$ and $D$ trisect $\overline{AB}$, with $AC < CB$. Through $C$ a horizontal line is drawn to cut the curve at $E(x_3, y_3)$. Find $x_3$ if $x_1 = 1$ and $x_2 = 1000$.

gpt | Since $C$ is the trisector of line segment $\overline{AB}$ closer to $A$, the $y$-coordinate of $C$ is equal to two thirds the $y$-coordinate of $A$ plus one third the $y$-coordinate of $B$. Thus, point $C$ has coordinates $(x_0, \frac{2}{3} \ln 1 + \frac{1}{3}\ln 1000) = (x_0, \ln 10)$ for some $x_0$. Then the horizon... |

gpt | Let $w$ be the width of each of the identical rectangles. Since $PQ=3w$, $RS=2x$ and $PQ=RS$ (because $PQRS$ is a rectangle), then $2x = 3w$, or $$w=\frac{2}{3}x.$$ Therefore, the area of each of the five identical rectangles is $$x\left(\frac{2}{3}x\right)=\frac{2}{3}x^2.$$ Since the area of $PQRS$ is 4000 and it is m... |

human | What is the area, in square units, of the interior region formed by the lines $y = 2x - 4, y = -3x +16$ and the $y$-axis? |
gpt | To find the vertices of the triangle, we find where the two lines $y=2x-4$ and $y=-3x+16$ intersect. Solving $2x-4=-3x+16$, we get $x=4$. Substituting $x=4$ back into $y=2x-4$, we find $y=4$. Therefore, $(4,4)$ is one of the vertices of the triangle. The other two vertices are the $y$-intercepts of the two lines, na... |

human | Two sides of an isosceles triangle are 10 inches and 20 inches. If the shortest side of a similar triangle is 50 inches, what is the perimeter of the larger triangle? |
gpt | First of all, the third side of the smaller triangle cannot be 10 inches because sides of 10, 10 and 20 inches would not form a triangle. The smaller triangle must have sides of 10, 20 and 20 inches. If the shortest side of the similar triangle is 50 inches, then the other two sides are 100 inches and 100 inches. Thus,... |

This radius will have a slope of: $$\frac{5-2}{5-3}=\frac{3}{2}$$ A key fact to remember is that tangents to a circle at a certain point are perpendicular to rad... |

gpt | Since $\angle RIP$ is inscribed in arc $RP$, the measure of arc $RP$ is $2\angle RIP = 72^\circ$. Therefore, arc $RP$ is $\frac{72}{360} =\frac15$ of the circumference of the whole circle. The circle's circumference is $2OR\pi = 20\pi$ cm, so the length of arc $RP$ is $\frac15\cdot 20\pi = \boxed{4\pi}$ cm. |

human | A pipe with inside diameter 10'' is to carry water from a reservoir to a small town in an arid land. Neglecting the friction and turbulence of the water against the inside of the pipes, what is the minimum number of 2''-inside-diameter pipes of the same length needed to carry the same volume of water to the arid town? |
gpt | Let the length of the pipes be $h$. The volume of the 10-inch pipe is $\pi (5^2) (h) = 25\pi h$ cubic inches and the volume of each 2-inch pipe is $\pi (1^2)(h) = \pi h$ cubic inches. Hence we see it takes exactly 25 2-inch pipes to match the volume of one 10-inch pipe. The answer is $\boxed{25}$ pipes. |

human | A jar of peanut butter which is 3 inches in diameter and 4 inches high sells for $\$$0.60. At the same rate, what would be the price for a jar that is 6 inches in diameter and 6 inches high? |
gpt | The first jar has a volume of $V=\pi r^2h=\pi(\frac{3}{2})^24=9\pi$. The second jar has a volume of $V=\pi r^2h=\pi(\frac{6}{2})^26=54\pi$. Note that the volume of the second jar is 6 times greater than that of the first jar. Because peanut butter is sold by volume, the second jar will be six times more expensive than ... |
human | How many integer side lengths are possible to complete a triangle in which the other sides measure 6 units and 3 units? |
gpt | By the Triangle Inequality, the unknown side must measure less than $6+3=9$ units. Also, the length of that side plus 3 units must be more than 6 units, so the unknown length must be more than 3 units. There are $\boxed{5}$ possible integer side lengths greater than 3 units and less than 9 units. |

gpt | Starting from the right triangle that contains angle $C$, we can see the third angle in this triangle is $90-26=64$ degrees. By vertical angles, this makes the rightmost angle in the triangle containing angle $y$ also equal to 64 degrees. Thus, the third angle in that triangle has measure $180-(y+64)=116-y$ degrees. ... |
human | What is the minimum number of equilateral triangles, of side length 1 unit, needed to cover an equilateral triangle of side length 10 units? |
gpt | The ratio of the sides of the small to big equilateral triangle (note that they are similar) is $1/10$, so the ratio of their areas is $(1/10)^2 = 1/100$. So the big equilateral triangle has 100 times the area of a small one, so it will take $\boxed{100}$ small triangles to cover the big one. |
human | Circle $B$ has its center at $(-6, 2)$ and a radius of $10$ units. What is the sum of the $y$-coordinates of the two points on circle $B$ that are also on the $y$-axis? |
gpt | Note that if the $y$-coordinate of one of the two points is $2+c$, then the $y$-coordinate of the other point must be $2-c$ because the two points must be equidistant from the line $y=2$. Therefore, the sum of the $y$-coordinates of the two points on circle $B$ that are also on the $y$-axis is $\boxed{4}$. |
human | Find $\cos C$ in the right triangle shown below.

gpt | The Pythagorean Theorem gives us $AC = \sqrt{BC^2 - AB^2} = \sqrt{100 - 36} = \sqrt{64}=8$, so $\cos C = \frac{AC}{BC} = \frac{8}{10} = \boxed{\frac45}$. |

gpt | We know that the two spheres are similar (in the same sense that triangles are similar) because corresponding parts are in proportion. We will prove that for two spheres that are similar in the ratio $1:k$, their volumes have the ratio $1:k^3$. Let the radius of the first sphere be $r$, so the radius of the other spher... |

human | Triangle $ABC$ with vertices $A(-2, 0)$, $B(1, 4)$ and $C(-3, 2)$ is reflected over the $y$-axis to form triangle $A'B'C'$. What is the length of a segment drawn from $C$ to $C'$? |
gpt | Reflecting a point over the $y$-axis negates the $x$-coordinate. So if $C$ is $(-3,2)$, $C'$ will be $(3,2)$. The segment is a horizontal line of length $3+3=\boxed{6}$. |
human | Compute $\sin(-60^\circ)$. |
gpt | Rotating $60^\circ$ clockwise is the same as rotating $360^\circ - 60^\circ = 300^\circ$ counterclockwise, so $\sin(-60^\circ) = \sin (360^\circ - 60^\circ) = \sin 300^\circ$.
Let $P$ be the point on the unit circle that is $300^\circ$ counterclockwise from $(1,0)$, and let $D$ be the foot of the altitude from $P$ to ... |
