Answer:

<h2>110</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In a regular polygon, each side has the same length.

Therefore we have the equation:

x^2+17x=15x+35

We must specify the domain:

x^2+17x>0\ \wedge\ 15x+35>0\\\\x(x+17)>0\ \wedge\ 15x>-35\\\\(x0)\ \wedge\ x>-\dfrac{7}{3}\Rightarrow x>0

x^2+17x=15x+35\qquad\text{subtract}\ 15x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\x^2+17x-15x=15x-15x+35\\\\x^2+2x=35\qquad\text{add 1 to both sides}\\\\x^2+2x+1=35+1\\\\x^2+2(x)(1)+1^2=36\qquad\text{use}\ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\(x+1)^2=36\to x+1=\pm\sqrt{36}\\\\x+1=\pm6\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\\x+1-1=\pm6-1\\\\x=-7\ \vee\ x=5

x

The length of a side:

x^2+17x=5^2+17(5)=25+85=110\\\\15x+35=15(5)+35=75+35=110

Answer:110

Step-by-step explanation:x^2+17x=15x+35

x^2+17x-15x-35=0

x^2+2x-35=0

delta=2^2-4*1*(-35)=4+140=144

x1=(-2+V144)/2=(-2+12)/2=10/2

x=5

so 15*5+35=75+35=110

Barrett works at an ice cream shop. The function f(x) represents the amount of money Barrett earns per gallon of ice cream, wher
Sliva [168]

The value of f(g(x)) is 6x^{3} +4

Explanation:

The function f(x) is given by

f(x)=2x^{2} +4

The function g(x) is given by

g(x)=\sqrt{3x^{3} }

To determine the value of f(g(x)), let us first substitute the value of g(x).

Thus, we get,

f(g(x))=f(\sqrt{3x^{3} } )

Now, substituting for x=\sqrt{3x^{3} } in the function f(x), we get,

f(g(x))=2(\sqrt{3x^{3} } )^2+4

Simplifying, the expression, we get,

f(g(x))=2({3x^{3} } )+4

Multiplying the term within the bracket, we have,

f(g(x))=6x^{3} +4

Thus, the value of f(g(x)) is 6x^{3} +4

Hence, the value of f(g(x)) represents the total amount of money that Barrett earns for working x hours.

Consider two circular swimming pools. Pool A has a radius of 48 feet, and Pool B has a diameter of 29.46 meters. Complete the de
Ber [7]

Answer: pool B has a greater circumference.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the circumference if a circle is expressed as

Circumference = 2πr

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

Pool A has a radius of 48 feet.

1 foot ≈ 0.305 meters

48 feet = 48 × 0.305 = 14.64 meters

The circumference of pool A is

2 × 3.14 × 14.64 = 91.94 meters

Pool B has a diameter of 29.46 meters. Radius = diameter/2

Radius of pool B = 29.46/2 = 14.73 meters

The circumference of pool B is

2 × 3.14 × 14.73 = 92.5 meters

Therefore, pool B has a greater circumference.
