What is FG?<br><br> NEED HELP QUICK!!

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

FG = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

FD is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, that is

$\frac{24}{54}$ = $\frac{x}{x+10}$ ( cross- multiply )

54x = 24(x + 10)

54x = 24x + 240 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

30x = 240 ( divide both sides by 30 )

x = 8

Then

FG = x + 10 = 8 + 10 = 18

Given a function <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3D3x%5E4-5x%5E2%2B2x-3" id="TexFormula1" title="f(x)=3x^4-5x^2+2x-3"

Levart [38]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{f(-1) = -7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve for this function, we need to substitute in our value of x inside to find f(x). Since we are trying to evalue f(-1), we will substitute -1 in as x to our equation.

$f(-1) = 3(-1)^4 - 5(-1)^2 + 2(-1) - 3$

Now we can solve for the function by multiplying/subtracting/adding our known values.

Starting with the first term to the last term:

$3(-1)^4 = 3$

<u><em>WAIT</em></u><em>!</em><em> How is this possible? </em> $-1^4 = -1$ (according to my calculator), and $3 \cdot -1 = -3$ , not 3!

It's important to note that taking a power of a negative number and multiplying a negative number are two different things. Let's use $-2^2$ as an example.

What your calculator did was follow BEMDAS since it wasn't explicitly told not to.

BEMDAS:

- Brackets

- Exponents

- Multiplication/Division

- Addition/Subtraction

Examining the equation, your calculator used this rule properly. Note that exponents come over multiplication.

So rather than being <em>"-2 squared"</em> - it's <em>"the negative of of 2 squared."</em>

Tying this back into our problem, the squared method would only be true if it looks like $-1^4$ . However, since we're substituting in -1, it looks like $(-1)^4$ , so the expression reads out as "<u><em>-1 to the fourth.</em></u>"

MULTIPLYING -1 by itself 4 times results in $-1\cdot-1\cdot-1\cdot-1=1$ .

Applying this logic to our original term, $3(-1)^4$ :

$3(-1\cdot-1\cdot-1\cdot-1)$
$3(1)$
$3$

Therefore, our first term is 3.

Let's move on to our second and third terms.

Second term: $-5x^2$

$-5(-1)^2$

Applying the same logic from our first term:

$-5(-1 \cdot -1)$
$-5(1)$
$-5$

Third term: $2x$

$2(-1) = -2$

-3 is just -3, no influence of x.

Combining our terms, we have $3-5-2-3$ .

This comes out to be -7, hence, the value of $f(-1)$ for our function $f(x)=3x^4-5x^2+2x-3$ is <u>-7</u>.

Hope this helped!

If 3, x, y, -9 are in A.P, find the values of x and y.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

x = -1
y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The common difference (d) can be found using the first and 4th terms:

a1 = 3

a4 = a1 +d(4 -1)

-9 = 3 +3d . . . . . simplify

-3 = 1 + d . . . . . . divide by 3

-4 = d . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

Then ...

x = a1 + d = 3 -4 = -1

y = x + d = -1 -4 = -5

The values of x and y are -1 and -5, respectively.
