<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>
  • The greatest integer function which is also known as a floor function rounds any number down to the nearest integer.

for example--

         If -2  ≤x <-1 then value of function is -2

        If   -1 ≤x < 0 then value of function is -1

        If   0 ≤x < 1 then value of function is 0

        If   1 ≤x < 2 then value of function is 1

and so on.

  • Similarly the least integer function which is also known as a ceiling function rounds any number up to the nearest integer.

for example--

         If -2  < x ≤ -1 then value of function is -1

        If   -1 < x ≤ 0 then value of function is 0

        If   0 < x ≤ 1 then value of function is 1

        If   1 < x ≤ 2 then value of function is 2

and so on.

Answer:

g = 61.

Step-by-step explanation:

g + 9 = 70             Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:

g + 9 - 9 = 70 - 9

The hour hand on a clock is 4 cm long, and the minute hand is 10 cm long. What is the exact distance between the tips of the han
Allushta [10]

Answer:

2 sqrt(19)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the angle between the two hands

360 /12 *2 = 60 degrees

We divide by 12 because there are 12 number and multiply by 2 because there are 2 number between 10 and 12

This is a triangle where we know 2 sides and the angle between them.

We can use the law of cosines to determine the third side

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2abcosC

Where C is the angle between sides a and b

a =4 and b = 10  C = 60  and we are looking for side c

c^2 = 4^2 + 10^2 -2*4*10 cos60

c^2 =16+100 - 80cos 60

c^2 = 76

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(c^2) = sqrt(76)

c = sqrt(76)

c =sqrt(4) sqrt(19)

c =2 sqrt(19)

WILL GIVE 100 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR BEST ANSWER
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:-16x^2 + 24x + 16 = 0.

A. Divide by 8:

-2x^2 + 3x + 2 = 0, A*C = -2*2 = -4 = -1 * 4. Sum = -1 + 4 = 3 = B, -2x^2 + (-x+4x) + 2 = 0,

(-2x^2-x) + (4x+2) = 0,

-x(2x+1) + 2(2x+1) = 0,

(2x+1)(-x+2) = 0, 2x+1 = 0, X = -1/2. -x+2 = 0, X = 2.

X-intercepts: (-1/2,0), (2,0).

B. Since the coefficient of x^2 is negative, the parabola opens downward. Therefore, the vertex is a maximum.

Locate the vertex: h = Xv = -B/2A = -24/-32 = 3/4, Plug 3/4 into the given Eq to find k(Yv). K = -16(3/4)^2 + 16(3/4) + 16 = 19. V(h,k) = V(3/4,19).

C. Choose 3 points above and below the vertex for graphing. Include the points calculated in part A which shows where the graph crosses the x-axis.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 20.2 CM and it's area is 24.4 cm squared what is its length and width
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Length of Rectangle = 4 cm    And

Width of Rectangle = 1.9 cm      

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The perimeter of rectangle = 20.2 cm

The area of rectangle is 24.4 cm

Let the length be L

And width be w

Now Area of rectangle = Length × width  

Or,  24.4 = L × W

And Perimeter = 2 (Length + Width ) = 2 (L + W )

Or,   20.2         = 2(L + W )

Or , L + W = 10.1 cm                   ............ 1

Now, (L - W )²  = (L + W)² -4 LW

Or,   (L - W )²  = ( 10.1)² -4 (24.4)

I.e    (L - W )² = 4.41

Or , L - W = 2.1 cm                    .............. 2

SO , From 1 and 2

( L + W) + (L - W) = 10.1 cm - 2.1 cm

Or, 2L = 8

∴  Length = 4 cm

Again , Width = 4 cm - 2.1 cm = 1.9 cm

Hence   Length of Rectangle = 4 cm    And

             Width of Rectangle = 1.9 cm       Answer
