Answer:

x = ±2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x ^2 -4 = 8

Add 4 to each side

3x ^2 -4+4 = 8+4

3x^2 =12

Divide each side by 3

3x^2 =12

3x^2/3 = 12/3

x^2 = 4

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(4)

x = ±2

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x ^2 -4 = 8

3x^2 = 12

Plzz help. Giving everything.<br> D. 24.5

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

$\frac{8}{14} = \frac{14}{x+2}$ (since they're similar, set them up as a proportion to find x)

14*14 = 8(x+2) (cross multiply, solve the left side, and distribute the right side)

196 = 8x +16 (subtract 16 from both sides)

180 = 8x (divide both sides by 8)

x= 22.5 (is your answer, or C)

Let f(x)= 100 / −10+ e^ −0.1x . What is f(−6) ?

bija089 [108]

The value of f(-6) is -12.2

Explanation:

Given that the function $f(x)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{-0.1\left(x\right)}}$

We need to determine the value of f(-6)

The value of f(-6) can be determined by substituting the value for $x=-6$ in the function and simplify the function.

Hence, let us substitute $x=-6$ in the function, we get,

$f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{-0.1\left(-6\right)}}$

Let us apply the rule $-\left(-a\right)=a$ , we get,

$f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{0.1\left(6\right)}}$

Multiplying the numbers, we get,

$f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+e^{0.6}}$

The value of $e^{0.6}=1.822$

Substituting the value of $e^{0.6}=1.822$ , we get,

$f(-6)=\frac{100}{-10+1.822}$

Subtracting the denominator, we have,

$f(-6)=\frac{100}{-8.178}$

Dividing, we have,

$f(-6)=-12.228$

Rounding off to the nearest tenth, we have,

$f(-6)=-12.2$

Thus, the value of f(-6) is -12.2
