Answer:
solution is
[-3,-1]
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given

Firstly, we will find critical values
so, let's assume it is equal

now, we can break absolute sign
For
:

we can solve for x

Add both sides by 20


Divide both sides by -10
and we get

For
:

we can solve for x

Subtract both sides by 20


Divide both sides by 10
and we get

so, critical values are


now, we can draw a number line and locate these values
and then we can check inequality on each intervals
For
:
We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality
and we get
we can plug x=-5



so, this is FALSE
For
:
We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality
and we get
we can plug x=-2



so, this is TRUE
For
:
We can select any random value from this interval and plug that in inequality
and we get
we can plug x=0



so, this is FALSE
so, solution is
[-3,-1]
Answer:
x = -1 or x = -7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = (x + 4)^2 - 9
To find x-intercept, set y = 0
=> (x + 4)^2 - 9 = 0
=> ( x + 1)( x + 7) = 0
=> x = -1 or x = -7
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The midsegment VY is half the sum of the parallel bases , that is
VY =
, then
3x + 18 =
(x + 96) ← multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction
6x + 36 = x + 96 ( subtract x from both sides )
5x + 36 = 96 ( subtract 36 from both sides )
5x = 60 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 12
Answer:
17,660,000
Step-by-step explanation:
First:
Multiply 14.6 x 10^6 which equals 14,600,000.
Second:
Multiply 3.06 x 10^6 which equals 3,060,000
Third:
Add Both answers together. You will get 17,660,000 as the answer!
Answer:
- width -- 10 ft
- length -- 35 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We can let x represent the width. Then the length will be represented by (3x+5), a value 5 more than 3 times the width.
The area is the product of length and width, so is ...
A = (3x +5)(x) = 3x^2 +5x
To make the area 350, we can find the value of x from ...
3x^2 +5x = 350
This can be solved a number of ways. One of them is "completing the square".
3(x^2 +5/3x) = 350
We choose to divide by 3 and add the square of half the x-coefficient.
x^2 +5/3x +(5/6)^2 = (350/3) + (5/6)^2
(x +5/6)^2 = 4225/36 . . . . simplify
x +5/6 = ±√(4225/36) = ±10 5/6 . . . . take the square root
x = 10 or -11 2/3 . . . . subtract 5/6
The positive solution is the one of interest: x = 10.
The driveway is 10 ft wide and 35 ft long.
