<u><em /></u>

Answer:

The value of x is -5/3.

The value of 1/3 - x is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

-3( x+2)-5=x-(6+x)          Distribute

-3x + -6 - 5 = x - 6 - x      Combine llike terms

-3x + -11    = -6              <em><u>POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE IS NEGATIVE</u></em>

      -3x -11 =  -6              Add 11 on both sides

            -3x = 5            Isolate the variable by dividing -3 on both sides

              x  =  -5/3

1/3 - x

= 1/3 - -5/3   <u><em> </em></u><u><em>NEGATIVE AND NEGATIVE IS POSITIVE</em></u>

= 1/3 + 5/3

= 6/3

<em>= 2</em>

<em>You must isolate the variable in order to solve equations with variables. </em>

<em> </em>

<em>Isolating variable is basically when you divide, multiply, add, or subtract to put a variable on </em><u><em>ONLY </em></u><em>one side of the equation. </em>

<em> </em>

The vertices of a triangle are A(4, 1), B(9, 1), C(2, 5). What is the area of this triangle.
kiruha [24]

Hey there!

\large\boxed{10u^2}

Formula for the area of a triangle is (1/2)bh.

Base of this triangle is 5, height is 4.

Image attached.

Plug values into the formula:

A = (1/2)(5)(4)

Simplify.

A = (1/2)(20)

A = 10

Area of the triangle is 10 units².

Hope this helps!

Answer:

  1) 135°

  2) 0.77 units

  3) 0.92 units

  4) 6.12 units

  5) 2.83 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The exterior angle at any vertex is 360°/n, where n is the number of sides. For the octagon, the exterior angle is 360°/8 = 45°. The interior angle will be the supplement of this: 180° -45° = 135°.

The measure of each interior angle is 135°.

__

2) Each sector of the octagon is an isosceles triangle with a central angle of 45° (also 360°/8). Since the radius is 1 unit, the length of one side is twice the sine of half the central angle.

  s = 2·sin(45°/2) ≈ 0.765367

The length of one side is about 0.77 units.

__

3) Similarly, the apothem is the cosine of half the central angle:

  a = cos(45°/2) ≈ 0.923880

The apothem is about 0.92 units.

__

4) For an octagon, the perimeter is 8 times the length of one side.

  P = 8s = 8(0.765367) ≈ 6.12293

The perimeter is about 6.12 units.

__

5) The area of one sector (isosceles triangle) is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)bh

  A = 1/2sa ≈ 1/2(0.765367)(0.923880) ≈ 0.353553

Then the area of the octagon is 8 times this:

  A = 8(sector area) = 8(0.353553) ≈ 2.82843

The octagon area is about 2.83 square units.

Can you write this equation in point-slope form?<br><br> y = ½x + 4?
Svet_ta [14]
Yes.  This equation given:
______________________________
   " y = (½)x + 4 " ;  in point-slope form; also known as: "slope-intercept form" ; is:
______________________________________
    " y = (½)x + 4 " .
______________________________________
In other words, the equation given is ALREADY written in "point-slope form" ; or, "slope-intercept form".
______________________________________
Note:   An equation that is written in "point-slope form"
             (or, "slope-intercept form"), is written in the format of:
______________________________________
" y = mx + b " ;_________________
in which:_________________
"y" is a single, "stand-alone" variable on the "left-hand side of the equation"; "m" is the coefficient of "x"; also:
"m" is the slope of the line; which is what we want to solve for;
"b" is the "y-intercept"; or more precisely, the value of "x"
(that is; the "x-coordinate") of the point at which "y = 0";
that is, the value of "x" ; or the "x-coordinate" of the point at which
the graph of the equation crosses the "x-axis".
______________________________________
Note that in our given equation, which is written in "point-slope form" (or, "slope-intercept form" — that is:  " y = mx + b "  ;
_______________________________________
which is:  " y = (½)x + 4 " ;
_______________________________________
we have:
_______________________________________
  "y" isolated as "stand-alone" variable on the "left-hand side" of the equation;

  m = ½ ;
  b =  4 .

Show all work to factor x^4 − 17x^2 + 16 completely.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

x^{4}-17x^{2} +16 = (x -1)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, let us find the first two factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

∵ The sign of the last term is positive

∴ The middle signs of the two factors are the same

∵ The sign of the middle term is negative

∴ The middle signs of the two factors are negative

∵ x^{4} = x² × x² ⇒ first terms of the two factors

∵ 16 = -1 × -16 ⇒ second terms of the two factors

∵ x²(-1) + x²(-16) = -x² + -16x² = -17x² ⇒ the value of the middle term

∴ (x² - 1) and (x² - 16) are the factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

Now let us factorize each factor

→ The factors of the binomial a² - b² (difference of two squares) are

   (a - b) and (a + b)

∵ x² - 1 is the difference of two squares

∴ Its factors are (x - 1) and (x + 1)

∵ x² - 16 is the difference of two squares

∴ Its factors are (x - 4) and (x + 4)

∵ (x -1), (x + 1), (x - 4), and (x + 4) are the factors of (x² - 1) and (x² - 16)

∵ (x² - 1) and (x² - 16) are the factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

∴ (x -1), (x + 1), (x - 4), and (x + 4) are the factors of x^{4}-17x^{2} +16

∴  x^{4}-17x^{2} +16 = (x -1)(x + 1)(x - 4)(x + 4)
