Answer 1

Answer:

The first option

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a rational function should be all real numbers except for when the denominator is equal to 0. To find when the denominator is equal to 0 you simply need to find the zeroes of the denominator... but in this case you can do that through factoring and using the quadratic equation.

So first step is going to be to factor out the GCF, which in this case is x. This gives you the equation. [tex]x(2x^2-x-15)[/tex]. So one of the zeroes is when x=0. Now to find the other two zeroes you can use the quadratic equation which is [tex]x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\[/tex]. So to find the other zeroes you simply plug the values in. a=2, b=-1, c=-15

[tex]x=\frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(2)(-15)}}{2(2)}\\\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{1-4(2)(-15)}}{4}\\\\x=\frac{1\pm\sqrt{121)}}{4}\\\\x=\frac{1\pm11}{4}\\\\x=\frac{12}{4}\\x=3\\\\x=\frac{-10}{4}\\x=-\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

It is to be noted that the Graph of the indicated inequalities is herewith attached.

What is the graph of the system?

As indicated above, this is a graph of a system of inequalities, where:

Y > -4x-1 and

y <3/2x-1

Is the point (-1,1) included in the solution area for the system?

No. the point (-1, 1) is not included in the solution area for the system.



How do we justify this mathematically?

Step 1 - Plug in (-1, 1) in to the first equation. where y = -1 and x = 1.

Hence,

-1 > -4(1) -1

4 +1 < -1

4 < 0 (This is False)

Step 2  - Plug in (-1, 1) in to the second equation. where y = -1 and x = 1.

-1 < (3/2)(1) - 1

-1 < 1/2 (This is true).

Thus (-1, 1) is only partially included in the solution area.)

The answer has been confirmed with WolframAlpha which is basically a calculator app, but does a ton more than any average calculator.

The CAS (computer algebra system) in the app GeoGebra is another tool I use all the time.

Yet another way to confirm the answer is to graph the original expression and the answer as separate functions. You should find they produce the exact same curve. One curve perfectly overlaps the other. This visually verifies the two expressions are the same thing, just written a different way of course.

Let me know if you have any questions about any step. The basic idea I did was to pull out the GCF and then combine like terms.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure what your problem here is.

you understand the inequality signs ?

anyway, to get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1)

we can calculate every part of the expression separately, and then combine all the results into one final result.

f(-2)

we look at the definition.

into what category is -2 falling ? the one with x<-2, or the one with x>=-2 ?

is -2 < -2 ? no.

is -2 >= -2 ? yes, because -2 = -2. therefore, it is also >= -2.

so, we have to use

1/3 x³

for x = -2 that is

1/3 × (-2)³ = 1/3 × -8 = -8/3

g(1)

again, we look at the definition.

into what category is 1 falling ? the one with x > 2 ? or the one with x <= 1 ?

is 1 > 2 ? no.

is 1 <= 1 ? yes, because 1=1. therefore it is also <= 1.

so we have to use

2×|x - 1| + 3

for x = 1 we get

2×0 + 3 = 3

6×f(-2) = 6 × -8/3 = 2× -8 = -16

3×g(1) = 3× 3 = 9

and so in total we get

6×f(-2) + 3×g(1) = -16 + 9 = -7

y > 2x + 2 and y < Negative one-halfx – 1; (3, 1)
y > 2x + 2 and y < Negative one-halfx + 1; (–3, 1)

Answers

Answer:

Using the concepts of coordinate system and equation of line, we find that y ≥ (1/3)x + 3 and 3x-y > 2 are represented by the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line passes through points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by:

y-b = [(d-b) / (c-a)] / (x-a)

Given that the first solid line (≤ or ≥) has a positive slope and goes through (0, 3) and (3, 4).

y-3 = [(4-3) / (3-0)] / (x-0)

y-3 = x / 3

y - (1/3)x = 3

Also, everything above the line is shaded, i.e. the inequality represents the first graph: y ≥ (1/3)x + 3

The second dashed line (< or >) has a positive slope and goes through (0, - 2) and (1, 1).

y+2 = [(1+2) / (1-0)](x-0)

y+2 = 3x

3x-y = 2

Everything to the right of the line is shaded.

i.e. inequality represents the second graph: 3x-y > 2

Hence, the system of linear inequalities is represented by the graph :

y ≥ (1/3)x + 3

3x-y > 2

Summer looked at the formula for the Pythagorean Theorem, a2 + b2 = c2, she said that it didn’t matter which sides of a right triangle were a, b, and c. Is she correct?

Answers

Answer:

Summer is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

It definitely matters which side is side "c".  Side "c" must be the hypotenuse (the side across from the right angle).

The other two sides are the legs (sides touching the right angle), and either leg can be "a" or "b", but the hypotenuse must be "c".

Take the equation, a² + b² = c², and subtract c² from both sides:

[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} -c^{2} =0[/tex]

It won't matter which leg is "a" or "b", because of the commutative property of addition.  Note that "a²" and "b²" are added together, and due to the commutative property of addition, we can add in either order and get the same result.

However, since the c² term is connected by subtraction, and subtraction doesn't have a commutative property, it can't be subtracted in any order.  Meaning which side it is is important.

Two circles are concentric if they have the same center.

Which equation represents a circle that is concentric with the circle shown but has a radius that is twice as large?

(x – 4)2 + (y – 6)2 = 4

(x – 6)2 + (y – 4)2 = 16
(x – 6)2 + (y – 4)2 = 4

Answers

The equation of the circle is (x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 16. The correct option is the second option (x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 16

Equation of a circle

From the question, we are to determine the equation of the circle

The equation of circle is given by

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where (h, k) is the center

and r is the radius

From the given information,

The two circles are concentric

∴ (h , k) = (4, 6)

But the other circle has a radius that is twice as large

∴ r = 2 × 2

r = 4

Thus,

The equation of the circle becomes

(x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 4²

(x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 16

Hence, the equation which represents a circle that is concentric with the circle shown but has a radius that is twice as large is (x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 16. The correct option is the second option (x - 4)² + (y - 6)² = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

You can eliminate the first 2 options since those don’t make sense already, and the last option changed 64 to 2^6 which is correct, but when they changed the other side. They should have multiplied 8 to both x and 1 which would have made the whole term 2^(8x+8) and not 2^(8x+1). Left with the third option, 4 to the power of 3 is 64 so the left side makes sense, 4^3x=64^x, on the right side, 4^4 equals 256, so the whole exponent should multiply by 4 so from 256^(x+1) you get 4^4(x+1) giving 4^(4x+4) making the third choice the right answer.

Since it is a rectangular prism, we use the equation of lwh. When we insert the values, we get 2*1.5*4, which is equal to 12. Now, we take these two values of 2 and 12 and we combine them, giving us our final answer of 14.

Answers

Answer:

The only methods allowed are

-  "Subtract equation 2 from equation 1,"  and "Multiply equation 1 by 2. Then add the new equation to equation 2"

-

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract Eq 2 from Eq 1:

3x-2y=7

-3x-4y=-17

-6y = -10

y = (5/3)

Use y =(5/3) to solve for x in both equations.

x=(31/9)

Subtract the left side of equation 2 from the left side of equation  No, this is not a legal operation.  

Multiply equation 1 by 2. Then add the new equation to equation 2  Yes, this works.  Instead of solving for y first, this method solves for x, which can then be used to find y:

2(3x-2y=7)

  6x-4y=14

  3x+4y=17    

   9x = 31    (y is eliminated)

x = (31/9)

Now use this to find y in either equation:

3x-2y=7

3x-2(31/9)=7

Without the table indicating the stated premium rates and applicable discounts, the monthly property insurance cannot be computed. Hence, on the assumption that the rate is 2.5% and the discount applicable is 7.5% the premium per month will come to $152.24

The simple definition of Property Insurance is, it is an insurance policy that covers a policyholder for the structure of a building and its contents against stated or agreed perils.

What is the calculation for the above?

Given (based on assumption) that the applicable annual rate is 2.5%

and that:

Value of Wooden House = $67,000Value of the contents of the House = $12,000Applicable discount = 7.5% of premium/annum

Hence annual premium will be:

= (67,000 + 12000) * (2.5/100) * 0.925

Annual Premium Payable = $1,826.89.............A
