Area of composite figuresssss

Talib is trying to find the inverse of the function to the right. His work appears beneath it. Is his work correct? Explain your

No, they forgot to switch variable labels after solving for the independent variable...

y=-8x+4

y-4=-8x

(y-4)/-8=x

Now that you have solved for the independent variable x, you switch the variable labels...

y=(x-4)/-8

f^-1(x)=(x-4)/-8 which should really be rewritten as:

f^-1(x)=(4-x)/8 :P

The function Q(x)=2x^2-kx+18. For what value of k does Q(x) have one distinct real solution? (NEEDS TO BE DONE WITHIN 2 HOURS!)

Aliun [14]

Answer:

k = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation $Q(x)=2x^2-kx+18$

To find:

Value of $k = ?$ for which the given equation has one distinct real solution.

Solution:

The given equation is a quadratic equation.

There are always two solutions of a quadratic equation.

For the equation: $ax^{2} +bx+c=0$ to have one distinct solution:

$b^2 - 4ac = 0$

Here,

a = 2,

b = -k and

c = 18

Putting the values, we get:

$(-k)^2 - 4\times 2\times 18 = 0\\\Rightarrow k^2 = 18\times 8\\\Rightarrow k^2 =144\\\Rightarrow k = 12$

The equation becomes:

$Q(x)=2x^2-12x+18$

And the one root is:

$2(x^2-6x+9 ) = 0\\\Rightarrow 2(x-3)^2=0\\\Rightarrow x = 3$

Maria bought g gallons of gasoline for $3.95 per gallon and c cans of oil for $4.45 per can. a. What expression can be used to

Furkat [3]

Answer:

a.) Total amount spent on gasoline and oil = $ ( 3.95g + 4.45c )

b.) Total amount spent by Maria = $ 74.02

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Cost of gasoline = $ 3.95 gallon

Cost of oil per can = $ 4.45

Also given,

Maria bought g gallons of gasoline and c cans of oil

⇒ Total cost of g gallons of gasoline = g×3.95 = $3.95g

Total cost of c cans of oil = c×4.45 = $4.45c

Now,

a.)

Total amount spent on gasoline and oil = $ ( 3.95g + 4.45c )

b.)

As given ,

Maria buy gasoline , g = 8.6 gallons

Maria buy cans of oil , c = 6

So,

Total amount spent = $ 3.95(8.6) + 4.45(9)

= $ 33.97 + 40.05 = $ 74.02

⇒Total amount spent by Maria = $ 74.02

Answer:

d =7.6

Step-by-step explanation:

$(-3,11) =(x_1,y_1)\\(-6,4)=(x_2,y_2)\\\\\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\\\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}\\\\=\sqrt{\left(-6-\left(-3\right)\right)^2+\left(4-11\right)^2}\\= \sqrt{(-6+3)^2+(4-11)^2}\\ \\d= \sqrt{(-3)^2+(-7)^2} \\\\d = \sqrt{9+49}\\ \\d = \sqrt{58}\\\\d = 7.61577\\\\d =7.6$

Make it 0 on one side <br><br> x2 - 2x + = 4(x2-2x +1)-3

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

-3x² +6x -1 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

x2 - 2x + = 4(x2-2x +1)-3

x² - 2x = 4x²-8x +4 - 3

x²-4x²-2x+8x = 4-3

-3x² +6x = 1

-3x² +6x -1 = 0
