DE=4x+10, EF=2x-1, and DF=9x-15, find DF

Mathematics
1 answer:
masya89 [10]3 years ago
3 0

DE and EF are segments of the line DF, so they will add up to DF. This can be represented with this equation:

(4x + 10) + (2x - 1) = 9x - 15

Combine like terms:

4x + 2x = 6x

10 + (-1) = 9

6x + 9 = 9x - 15

Add 15 to both sides:

6x + 24 = 9x

Subtract 6x from both sides:

24 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself:

\boxed{x = 8}

The value of x will be 8.

Plug this value of x into the expression for DF:

9(8) - 15 = 72 - 15 = \boxed{57}

DF will equal 57.

Differentiate f and find the domain of f. (enter the domain in interval notation.)f(x) = ln(x2 − 12x)derivative f '(x) = 2x−12x2
guajiro [1.7K]
F(x) = ln(x² - 12x)
The derivative is
f'(x)= \frac{2x-12}{x^{2}-12x}

f(x) is undefined when x² - 12x = x(x - 12) = 0
That is, when x = 0 or x = 12.
Therefore the domain is (-∞, 0)∪(0,12)∪(12, ∞)

Answer:
The derivative is
f'(x) =  \frac{2x-12}{x^{2}-12x}
The domain is
(-∞, 0)∪(0, 12)∪(12,∞)

Daniella is interviewing for a job. She wants her take-home pay to be at least $51,000 
Lilit [14]
Okay. So Daniella wants to have a take-home pay of at least $51,000, but she ahs to pay 15% income tax, which means 15% of what she earns will be gone. To find out the least amont of salary she needs to make, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:

51,000/x = 85/100

This is because we are looking for the amount of money made overall, but the $51,000 is only part of the salary earned, and even though you pay 15% income tax, you still take home 85% of your salary. Cross multiply the valyes in order to get 5,100,000 = 85x. Divide each side by 85 to isolate the variable. 5,100,000/85 is 60,000. Let's check this by multiplying by 85% (0.85). 60,000 * 0.85 is 51,000. There. x = 60,000. Daniella will need to make at least $60,000.

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Slope: \frac{3}{5}

Y-Intercept: (0,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the slope, we need to have the equation in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b. In this case, our equation is already in this form. m is what your slope is. In this case, our

2. To find the y-intercept we look at value b that is in y=mx+b. In this case, b is -5. So, our ordered pair is (0,-5).
