Answer:

Jada walked 13\ miles

Elena walked 9\ miles

Lin walked 15\ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> total miles walked by Jada

y----> total miles walked by Elena

z----> total miles walked by Lin

we know that

x+y+z=37 -----> equation A

x=y+4 -----> y=x-4 ------> equation B

z=x+2 ------> equation C

Substitute equation C and equation B in equation A and solve for x

x+(x-4)+(x+2)=37

3x=37+2

3x=39

x=13\ mi

Find the value of y

y=13-4=9\ mi

Find the value of z

z=13+2=15\ mi

therefore

Jada walked 13\ miles

Elena walked 9\ miles

Lin walked 15\ miles

I need to solve this using l'hopital's rule and logarithmic diferentiation.
arlik [135]

Yo sup??

For our convenience let h=x+1

therefore

when x tends to -1, h tends to 0

hence we can rewrite it as

\lim_{h \to \ 0 } (cos(h))^{(cot(h^2 )}

This inequality is of the form 1∞

We will now apply the formula

e^(^g^(^x^)^(^f^(^x^)^-^1^)^)

plugging in the values of g(x) and f(x)

e^{lim_{h \to \ 0}{(cot(h)^2(cos(h)-1))}

express coth² as cosh²/sinh² and also write cosh-1 as 2sin²(h/2)

(by applying the property that cos2x=1-sin²x)

After this multiply the numerator and denominator with h² so that we can apply the property that

\lim_{x \to \ 0 } sinx/x =1

Now your equation will look like this.

e^{lim_{h \to \ 0}{((cos(h)^2(2sin^2(h/2)*h^2)/(sin(h)^2*h^2)}

We will now apply the result

\lim_{x \to \ 0 } sinx/x =1

where x=h²

we get

e^{lim_{h \to \ 0}{((cos(h)^2(2sin^2(h/2))/(h^2)}

we now multiply the numerator and denominator with 4 so that we can say

\lim_{h^2 \to \ 0 } sin^2(h/2)/(h^2/4) = 1

e^{lim_{h \to \ 0}{((cos(h)^2(2sin^2(h/2))/(h^2*4/4)}

=e^{lim_{h \to \ 0}{((cos(h)^2*2)/(4)}

Apply the limits and you will get

e^{cos(0)^2*2/4

=e^{1/2}

Hope this helps.

Is 4(x-3) equivalent to 12x-4-8(8x+1)
zvonat [6]

4x - 12 = 12x - 4 - 64x -8 simplify

4x - 12 = -52x -12 add 12 to both sides

4x= -52x divide by 4

x = -13x

It can be equivalent, but only if x=0

What is the total cost of 1.2 Cubic yards of soil if it sells for $24 per cubic yard?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

$28.80 I hope that helps if not I'm sorry if it's wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

we write "dollars per cubic yard" as "dollars/yd^3" so that the units "yd^3" will cancel when multiplying by "1.2 yd^3", leaving an answer in units of dollars

24 dollars / yd^3 * 1.2 yd^3 = 28.80

the cost would be $28.80

What number should be added to the expression x2+2x to change it into a perfect square trinomial?
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Option A. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A perfect square trinomial is equal to

(x+a)^{2}=x^{2}+2xa+a^{2}

In this problem we have

x^{2}+2x

equate the equations and solve for a

x^{2}+2x=x^{2}+2xa+a^{2}

so

2x=2xa

a=1

therefore

the perfect square trinomial is equal to (x+1)^{2}
