Answer:

4 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

first i subtracted 1.3 from 4 and got 2.7

Next i just multiplied 0.6 by random numbers ubtil i got something close to 2.7

i ended up with 2.4 when I multiplied 0.6 by 4

it still is .3 short

since it takes an hour for the candle to burn, then if you cut it in half, that means 30 minutes

therfore, 4.5 hours

Use the Intermediate Value Theorem to show that there is a root of the given equation in the specified interval.
Olin [163]

Answer:

The correct option is  d

f(1) =  -5

f(2) =  11

The correct option is d

The correct option is  c

the correct option is  b

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

     f(x) =  x^4 + x -7 =0

The give interval  is (1,2)

 

   Now differentiating the equation

        f'(x) =  4x^3 +7 > 0

Therefore the equation is  positive  at the given interval

       Now at x= 1

  f(1) =  (1)^4 + 1 -7 =-5

       Now at x= 2

  f(2) =  (2)^4 + 2 -7 =11

Now at  the interval (1,2)

      f(1) < 0 < f(2)

i.e

      -5 < 0 < 11

this tell us that there is a value z within 1,2 and

   f(z) =  0

Which implies that there is a root within (1,2) according to the intermediate value theorem

Use a flowchart to prove if the triangles in each pair are congruent. NO LINKS!!!!​

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

It isn't clear what is supposed to go in the various blanks. We have elected to identify the corresponding congruent parts, and name the congruent triangles. The postulate supporting the conclusion is also shown.

In most cases, corresponding parts are marked congruent. The exception is the vertical angles in figure 22.

Given the figure below, find the values of x and z.
iragen [17]

Answer:

x=6 and z=107

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure or diagram we can say that

z+15x-17=180 ---(1)

z+11x+7=180 ---(2)

Subtracting (1) and (2)

z+15x-17-(z+11x+7)=180-180

4x-24=0

4x=24

x=6

Substitute x=6 in (2)

z+11(6)+7=180

z+66+7=180

z=180-73

z=107
