$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)=500(1.05)^x \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=2\\
x_2=4
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(4)-f(2)}{4-2}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[500(1.05)^4]~-~[500(1.05)^2]}{4-2}\implies \cfrac{56.503125}{2}\implies 28.2515625$

how many bricks can my truck carry in a full load if each brick weighs 4 pounds 14 ounces and my truck can carry a 3/4 ton load

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

The number of bricks a truck can carry in full load is 308 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The weight of each brick = 4 pounds and 14 ounce

The total load a truck can carry = $\dfrac{3}{4}$ tons

Let The number of bricks truck can carry = n bricks

Now, According to question

∵ 1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds

∴ 14 ounce = 0.0625 × 14 = 0.875 pounds

So, Total weight of each brick = 4 pounds + 0.875 pounds = 4.875 pounds

Again

∵ 1 pound = 0.0005 tons

∴ 4.875 pounds = 0.0005 × 4.875 = 0.0024375 tons

Now, Again

The total load a truck can carry = $\dfrac{3}{4}$ tons = 0.75 tons

And The weight of each brick = 0.0024375 tons

So, The number of bricks = $\dfrac{\textrm total load a truck can carry}{\textrm Total weight of each brick}$

I.e n = $\dfrac{0.75}{0.0024375}$

∴ n = 307.69 ≈ 308

So, The number of bricks can truck carry = n = 308

Hence, The number of bricks a truck can carry in full load is 308 . Answer

Given the function f(x) = 2|x + 6| – 4, for what values of x is f(x) = 6?

lara [203]

Answer:

x = -1 , - 11,

Step-by-step explanation:

| x | = x

|- x | = x

f(x) = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

x = - 1 , f( - 1) = 2 | - 1 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 5 | - 4 = 10 - 4 = 6 , True

x = 1 , f( 1 ) = 2 | 1 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 7 | - 4 = 14 - 4 = 10 , False

x = 11, f( 11 ) = 2 | 11 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 17 | - 4 = 34 - 4 = 30 , False

x = - 11, f( - 11) = 2 | -11 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | - 5 | - 4 = 10 - 4 = 6 , True

x = 14 , f( 14 ) = 2 | 14 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 20 | - 4 = 40 - 4 = 36 , False

x = -14 , f( - 14 ) = 2 | - 14 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | - 8 | - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 , False

x = - 26 , f( - 26) = 2 | -26 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | -20 | - 4 = 40 - 4 = 36 , False

x = 26, f( 26 ) = 2 | 26 + 6 | - 4 = 2 | 32 | - 4 = 64 - 4 = 60 , False

Given f ( x ) = 6

f( x ) = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

6 = 2 | x + 6 | - 4

6 + 4 = 2 | x + 6| - 4 + 4 [ adding 4 to both sides ]

10 = 2 | x + 6 | + 0

5 = | x + 6 | [ dividing both sides by 2 ]

$- 5 =\ ( x+ 6) \ = 5\\\\$ $[ \ | x | = a\ => \ -a \ = x \ = a \ ]$

$- 5 - 6 = \ x + 6 - 6 \ = \ 5 - 6\\$ $[ \ subtracting \ by \ 6 \ ]$

$-11 = \ x \ = - 1$

Please answer asap this person made a mistake what is the error and correct solution to this problem

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

$(4+x)^2=4^2+2\cdot 4\cdot x+x^2=16+\boxed{8}x+x^2\\\\\text{ ... and not ...}\\\\16+\boxed{4}x+x^2$

So the correct equation becomes.

$x^2+64=16+8x+x^2\\\\8x=64-16=48\\\\\text{ we divide by 8 both sides of the equation.}\\\\x=\dfrac{45}{8}=6$

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you
