Mathematics
1 answer:
tigry1 [53]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x < -5  or  x = 1  or  2 < x < 3  or  x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given <u>rational inequality</u>:

\dfrac{(x-1)^2(x-2)^3}{(x^2-5x+6)^2(x+5)}\geq 0

\textsf{Factor }(x^2-5x+6):

\implies x^2-2x-3x+6

\implies x(x-2)-3(x-2)

\implies (x-3)(x-2)

Therefore:

\dfrac{(x-1)^2(x-2)^3}{(x-3)^2(x-2)^2(x+5)}\geq 0

Find the roots by solving f(x) = 0  (set the numerator to zero):

\implies (x-1)^2(x-2)^3=0

\implies (x-1)^2=0\implies x=1

\implies (x-2)^3=0 \implies x=2

Find the restrictions by solving f(x) = <em>undefined  </em>(set the denominator to zero):

\implies (x-3)^2(x-2)^2(x+5)=0

\implies (x-3)^2=0 \implies x=3

\implies (x-2)^2=0 \implies x=2

\implies (x+5)=0 \implies x=-5

Create a sign chart, using closed dots for the <u>roots</u> and open dots for the <u>restrictions</u> (see attached).

Choose a test value for each region, including one to the left of all the critical values and one to the right of all the critical values.

Test values:  -6, 0, 1.5, 2.5, 4

For each test value, determine if the function is positive or negative:

f(-6)=\dfrac{(-6-1)^2(-6-2)^3}{(-6-3)^2(-6-2)^2(-6+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(-)}{(+)(+)(-)}=+

f(0)=\dfrac{(0-1)^2(0-2)^3}{(0-3)^2(0-2)^2(0+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(-)}{(+)(+)(+)}=-

f(1.5)=\dfrac{(1.5-1)^2(1.5-2)^3}{(1.5-3)^2(1.5-2)^2(1.5+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(-)}{(+)(+)(+)}=-

f(2.5)=\dfrac{(2.5-1)^2(2.5-2)^3}{(2.5-3)^2(2.5-2)^2(2.5+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(+)}{(+)(+)(+)}=+

f(4)=\dfrac{(4-1)^2(4-2)^3}{(4-3)^2(4-2)^2(4+5)}=\dfrac{(+)(+)}{(+)(+)(+)}=+

Record the results on the sign chart for each region (see attached).

As we need to find the values for which f(x) ≥ 0, shade the appropriate regions (zero or positive) on the sign chart (see attached).

Therefore, the solution set is:

x < -5  or  x = 1  or  2 < x < 3  or  x > 3

As interval notation:

(- \infty,-5) \cup x=1 \cup (2,3) \cup(3,\infty)

Bath and $38,000 in student loans the interest rate on her salons is 8.25% per year she will be painless loans off for 20 years
scoray [572]

Answer:

$100,700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal= $38,000

rate= 8.25%

Time= 20 years

Applying the simple interest

A=P(1+rt)

substitute

A=38000(1+0.0825*20)

A=38000(1+1.65)

A=38000*(2.65)

A=$100,700

Hence in 20 years she will pay $100,700

What’s 22,000 - 407% of 60?
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

21,755.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, we must first find 407% of 60.

To do this, place the percent over 100 (fraction form), then, multiply it by the number you're finding the percentage of.

407/100 x 60/1 = 24,420/100

24420 / 100 = 244.2

244.2 is 407% of 60.

Lastly, you subtract 244.2 from 22,000.

22,000 - 244.2 = 21,755.8

The value of the surface area of the cylinder is equal to the value of the volume of the cylinder. Find the value of x
Slav-nsk [51]

pi·(7.2/2)^2·x = 2·pi·(7.2/2)^2 + 2·pi·(7.2/2)·x

x = 4.5 = 4 1/2

O = V = 1458/25·pi = 58.32·pi
