1 answer:

7 0

A) Find KM∠KEM is a right angle hence ΔKEM is a right angled triangle Using Pythogoras' theorem where the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the adjacent sides we can answer the
KM² = KE² + ME²KM² = 8² + (3√5)² = 64 + 9x5KM = √109KM = 10.44
b)Find LMThe ratio of LM:KN is 3:5 hence if we take the length of one unit as xlength of LM is 3xand the length of KN is 5x ∠K and ∠N are equal making it a isosceles trapezoid. A line from L that cuts KN perpendicularly at D makes KE = DN
KN = LM + 2x 2x = KE + DN2x = 8+8x = 8LM = 3x = 3*8 = 24
c)Find KN Since ∠K and ∠N are equal, when we take the 2 triangles KEM and LDN, they both have the same height ME = LD.
∠K = ∠N Hence KE = DN the distance ED = LMhence KN = KE + ED + DN since ED = LM = 24and KE + DN = 16KN = 16 + 24 = 40
d)Find area KLMNArea of trapezium can be calculated using the formula below Area = 1/2 x perpendicular height between parallel lines x (sum of the parallel sides)substituting values into the general equationArea = 1/2 * ME * (KN+ LM) = 1/2 * 3√5 * (40 + 24) = 1/2 * 3√5 * 64 = 3 x 2.23 * 32 = 214.66 units²

Y(a -b) =c(y+ a); y

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

y = ac / (a - b - c)

Step-by-step explanation:

y(a - b) = c(y + a)

Distribute

ay - by = cy + ac

Subtract cy from both sides

ay - by - cy = ac

Factor out y

y(a - b - c) = ac

Divide both sides by (a - b - c)

y = ac / (a - b - c)

How many real number solutions are there to the equation 0=-3x^2 + x -4

natta225 [31]

We have that
the equation
y=-3x² + x -4
the real number solutions are the points x intercept of the graph
are the points when y=0

using a graph tool
see the attached figure

the graph has no point of intersection with the x axis
therefore

the answer is
there are zero real numbers solutions

Answer:

If you want to use the Rational Zeros Theorem, as instructed, you need to use synthetic division to find zeros until you get a quadratic remainder.

P: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6 (all prime factors of constant term)

Q: ±1, ±7 (all prime factors of the leading coefficient)

P/Q: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6, ±1/7, ±2/7, ±3/7, ±6/7 (all possible values of P/Q)

Now, start testing your values of P/Q in your polynomial:

f(x)=7x4-9x3-41x2+13x+6

You can tell f(1) and f(-1) are not zeros since they're not = 0Now try f(2) and f(-2):

f(2)=7(16)-9(8)-41(4)+13(2)+6

112-72-164+26+6 ≠ 0

f(-2)=7(16)-9(-8)-41(4)+13(-2)+6

112+72-164-26+6 = 0 OK!! There is a zero at x=-2

This means (x+2) is a factor of the polynomial.

Now, do synthetic division to find the polynomial that results from

(7x4-9x3-41x2+13x+6)÷(x+2):

-2⊥ 7 -9 -41 13 6

-14 46 -10 -6

7 -23 5 3 0 The remainder is 0, as expected

The quotient is a polynomial of degree 3:

7x3-23x2+5x+3

Now, continue testing the P/Q values with this new polynomial. Try f(3):

f(3)=7(27)-23(9)+5(3)+3

189-207+15+3 = 0 OK!! we found another zero at x=3

Now, another synthetic division:

3⊥ 7 -23 5 3

21 -6 -3_

7 -2 -1 0

The quotient is a quadratic polynomial:

7x2-2x-1 This is not factorable, you need to apply the quadratic formula to find the 3rd and 4th zeros:

x= (1±2√2)÷7

The polynomial has 4 zeros at x=-2, 3, (1±2√2)÷7
