Answer 1

[tex]\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf 1. \ \sqrt{5x+4} -1=2x \end{gathered}$}[/tex]

The root of the equation is solved first. Afterwards, both members of the equality are squared, the powers are developed and it is solved.

     [tex]\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf \sqrt{5x+4}=2x+1 \Longrightarrow 5x+4=(2x+1)^2 \end{gathered}$}[/tex]

[tex]\large\displaystyle\text{$\begin{gathered}\sf 2. \ 3\sqrt{x-1}+11=2x \end{gathered}$}[/tex]

The root of the equation is cleared. Then, both sides of the equality are squared, the powers are developed and it is solved by the general formula.

A^2 -b^2 / a +b

Apply the difference of two squares formula to the top :

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


now you have :

(A+b)(a-b) / a+b = 12


the two (a+ b)’s cancel each other out so you are left with a-b = 12


answer: a-b = 12

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formulae directly

For a cone, with base radius = r and height = h, here are the related formula

[tex]\textrm{Slant height l} = \sqrt{r^2 + h^2}[/tex]  (1)

[tex]\textrm{Lateral surface area} = \pi r l[/tex]

[tex]\textrm {Base area} = \pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]\textrm { Total Surface Area SA} = \textrm{Base Area + Lateral Area} = \pi r^2 + \pi rl = \pi r(r + l)[/tex] (2)

[tex]\textrm{Volume V = } (1/3) \pi r^2h[/tex] (3)

Therefore directly plugging in the numbers in the above equations:

Note:

l = slant height in cm
SA = total surface area in sqcm
V = Volume in cubic cm

Figure(a)

r = 4, h = 8

[tex]\textrm{l} = \sqrt{4^2 + 8^2} =\sqrt{80} = 8.944 \\\textrm{SA} = 4\pi(4 + 8.944) = 4\pi(12.944) = 162.66\\\textrm{V} = (1/3)\pi(4^2)(8) = 134.04[/tex]

Figure(b)

r = 7, h =15

[tex]\textrm{l} = \sqrt{7^2 + 15^2} =\sqrt{274} = 16.55[/tex]

[tex]\textrm{SA} = 7\pi(7 + 16.55) = 517.89[/tex]

Figure (c)

r = 5, l = 8

[tex]h = \sqrt{l^2 - r^2} = \sqrt{8^2 - 5^2} = \sqrt{39} = 6.245\\SA = \textrm{SA} = 5\pi(5 + 8) = 204.2\\V = (1/3)\pi(5^2)(6.245) = 163.5[/tex]

A store manager wants to estimate the proportion of customers who spend money in this store. How many customers are required for a random sample to obtain a margin of error of at most 0.075 with 80% confidence

Answers

The 73 customers who spend money in this store if  margin of error of at most 0.075 with 80% confidence.

What is the margin of error(MOE)?

It is defined as an error that provides an estimate of the percentage of errors in real statistical data.

The formula for finding the MOE:

[tex]\rm MOE = Z\times \dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Where   Z is the z-score at the confidence interval

            s is the standard deviation

            n is the number of samples.

We have p = 0.50 MOE = 0.075

Z = 1.282 at 80% confidence from the Z table.

[tex]\rm 0.075 = (1.282)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.50(1-0.50)}{n}}[/tex]

After solving, we get:

n = (0.5)(0.5)/(0.0585)²

n = 73

Thus, the 73 customers who spend money in this store if  margin of error of at most 0.075 with 80% confidence.

¿se puede hacer un triangulo con las siguientes medidas:2cm ,3cm ,10cm? ayudenme es para mañana

Answers

Não, não podemos fazer um triângulo com os comprimentos dos lados de 2 cm, 3 cm e 10 cm. Isso ocorre porque a soma de 2+3 < 10. (in english: No, we cannot make a triangle with the side lengths of measurement 2 cm, 3 cm, and 10 cm. This is because sum of 2+3 < 10).

What is triangle inequality theorem?

Triangle inequality theorem of a triangle says that the sum of any of the two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side.

Suppose a, b and c are the three sides of a triangle. Thus according to this theorem,

[tex](a+b) > c\\(b+c) > a\\(c+a) > b[/tex]

Now, for this case, the sides given are:

a =2 cm,b = 3 cm,and c = 10 cm

But we see that:

a+ b = 5 cm which is < c which is of 10 cm.

Thus, these lengths don't satisfy the triangle inequality theorem, and therefore, cannot be sides of any triangle.

Find all x-intercepts of the function. Express your answer as a list of x-values.
f(x) = x3 – 4x2 – 16x + 64

Answers

Answer:

all x intercepts [-4, 0] [4, 0]

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept, i.e. y=0

f(x) = x^3 - 4x^2 - 16x + 64 = 0

(x^3 + 4^3) - 4x^2 - 16x = 0         [FYI, x^3 + y^3 = (x + y)(x^2 - xy + y^2)]

(x + 4)(x^2 - 4x + 16) - 4x^2 - 16x = 0

(x + 4)(x^2 - 4x + 16) - 4x(x + 4) = 0

(x + 4)(x^2 - 4x + 16 - 4x) = 0

(x + 4)(x^2 - 8x + 16) = 0

(x + 4)(x - 4)^2 = 0

x = -4 or 4

all x intercepts [-4, 0] [4, 0]

Step-by-step explanation:

one thing immediately catches the eye : the factors of the terms in the function follow the powers of 4 :

4⁰, 4¹, 4², 4³

and they are going against the powers of x :

x³ has the factor 4⁰

x² has the factor 4¹

x has the factor 4²

x⁰ has the factor 4³

with that we see that one 0 solution (an x- intercept) is x = 4.

f(4) = 4³ - 4×4² - 4²×4 + 4³ = 4³ - 4³ - 4³ + 4³ = 0

so, the functional expression is

(x-4)(x² + ...)

the other 2 zero solutions are covered by the quadratic term.

to get the quadratic term we divide f(x) by (x-4).

x³ - 4x² - 16x + 64 ÷ x - 4 = x² - 16

- x³ - 4x²

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

0 0 - 16x + 64

- - 16x + 64

----------------------‐--------

0 0

so,

f(x) = (x - 4)(x² - 16)

and as we know

(a² - b²) = (a + b)(a - b)

we get

f(x) = (x - 4)(x + 4)(x - 4) = (x - 4)²(x + 4)

so, x = 4 counts as 2 zero solutions, it is a point, where the curve makes a turn and only touches the x-axis, but does not fully intercept it (in the sense to continue on the other side of the x-axis).

and x = -4 is the third zero solution.

so, the x-intercepts are at x = -4, +4

If the measure of angle B=35 degrees, a=43, and c=19 then find the measure of angle A

Answers

Answer:  123.3364311 degrees approximately

Round that value however your teacher instructs.

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

Explanation:

Use the law of cosines to find side b

[tex]b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2*a*c*\cos(B)\\\\b^2 = 43^2 + 19^2 - 2*43*19*\cos(35)\\\\b^2 \approx 871.5055596\\\\b \approx \sqrt{871.5055596}\\\\b \approx 29.521273\\\\[/tex]

Now use the law of sines to find angle A.

[tex]\frac{\sin(A)}{a} = \frac{\sin(B)}{b}\\\\\frac{\sin(A)}{43} \approx \frac{\sin(35)}{29.521273}\\\\\sin(A)\approx 43*\frac{\sin(35)}{29.521273}\\\\\sin(A) \approx 0.8354581\\\\A \approx \sin^{-1}(0.8354581) \text{ or } A \approx 180-\sin^{-1}(0.8354581)\\\\A \approx 56.6635689^{\circ} \text{ or } A \approx 123.3364311^{\circ}\\\\[/tex]

Due to the side angle side (SAS) congruence theorem, we know that only one triangle is possible (notice angle B is between sides 'a' and c). This means only one of those values for angle A is possible.

The question is: Which one?

Well if you were to use the converse of the pythagorean theorem, then you'll find that the triangle is obtuse.

For any obtuse triangle, the longest side is always opposite the obtuse angle (aka the angle over 90 degrees). The side a = 43 is the longest side of this particular triangle.

This means angle A must be obtuse and the only possibility is that angle A = 123.3364311 degrees approximately.

A) This is true. Parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts.B) This is true because of the corresponding angles theorem.C) This is false. The statement applies to perpendicular lines, rather than parallel ones.D) This is false in general. The only time it's true is when the consecutive interior angles are 90 degrees each. Otherwise, the statement is false.E) This is true. Let's say we drew any diagonal line we wanted. Now imagine picking a point on that line and shifting it up 5 units. Do this for another point and draw a line through the two separated points. This forms a parallel line. The upper line has been shifted up 5 units compared to the lower line.F) This is false in general. It's only true when both alternate interior angles are 90 degrees each; otherwise, it is false.

What are coordinates?

A coordinate system is a method of determining the position of points or other geometric components on a manifold, such as Euclidean space, by using one or more integers, or coordinates.

Given that y varies directly with x, therefore, we can write,

y∝x

y = kx

Also, y=3 and x=-3, therefore, the value of k can be written as,

3=k(-3)

k=-1

Now, the points which vary are on a graph where y varies directly with x are (-1, 1), (0, 0), and (-5, 5).
