Answer:

x = 10/√2 ≈ 7.07

Step-by-step explanation:

Comenzaremos por dividir el triángulo en dos partes y definir H, como en la figura adjunta.

Aplicando el teorema de Tales, sabemos que:

\dfrac{l/2}{H}=\dfrac{x/2}{h}\\\\\\\dfrac{l}{H}=\dfrac{x}{h}

También sabemos que, dado que el tirángulo menor es la mitad que el triángulo mayor, la relación entre áreas es:

\dfrac{A}{A_x}=\dfrac{lH/2}{xh/2}=\dfrac{lH}{xh}=2

Dado que formamos dos triángulos rectángulos, podemos despejar el valor de H como:

(l/2)^2+H^2=l^2\\\\H^2=l^2-(l/2)^2=10^2-5^2=100-25=75\\\\H^2=\sqrt{75}

Podemos entonces despejar x de la siguiente manera:

h=\dfrac{H}{l}\cdot x=\dfrac{lH}{2x}\\\\\\2x^2\dfrac{H}{l}=lH\\\\\\2x^2=l^2\\\\\\x=\dfrac{l}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{2}}\approx7.07

Let f be a functions of degree 4 whose coefficients are real numbers: two of its zeros are - 3 and 4 - i. Explain why one of the
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following theorem, if f is a polynomial with real coefficients, we can factor it completely in factors of the degree at most 2.

Consider first a polynomial of degree two, hence it is a polynomial of the form ax^2+bx+c. The cuadratic formula tells us that the solutions are of the form

x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}.

Note that square root, over the reals, tells us that the are only real solutions if b^2-4ac \geq 0. If that is not the case, say it's negative, the solution are complex. Then, the solutions are of the form

x = \frac{-b \pm i \sqrt[]{4ac-b^2}}{2a}. NOte that this means that if we have a complex number of the form a+bi that is a solution, then the number a-bi (who is called the complex conjugate) is also a solution.

Recall that when we have a polynomial f(x) whose a zero is the number c, then we can factor f as follows f(x) = (x-c) * p(x) where p(x) is another polynomial of lesser degree .

So far, we know that -3 and 4-i are zeros of the function f. Note that we are missing two zeros. But, since complex numbers are zeros of polynomial only by pairs (that is the number and its conjugate are zeros), then, we must have that one of the missing 2 zeros is a real number. We have 4-i as a zero, then, its complex conjugate must be also a zero, i.e 4+i is a zero.

Mrs.drew want to build a square sandbox with an area of 361 square feet what is the total length of wood mrs. Drew needs to make
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

180.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

the area for the sand box would be calculated as length × width. since the sandbox is square each side is the same length. the side will be half the number of the area.

361 ÷ 2 = 180.5 ft

Irene has a checking account. On Monday she writes a $160 check for groceries. Then she deposits $125 into her account. Finally,
anastassius [24]
First you can see that there are 3 numbers 160,125,and 40 you can add 125 and 40 because they are both checks so then after you add you get $165 in checks do you then subtract $125 which is how much she put in and you get $40. So, she has $-40
In her bank account meaning her back scout was decreased by $40.
