Pythagorean theorem
c2 = a2 + b2
58^2 = 42^2 + b2
3364 = 1764 + b2
1600 = b2
b = 40

Can I please get some help on this...I have tried to many times...

Bezzdna [24]

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the problem is g(f(x)). You would plug in f(x) wherever you see an x in g(x). To find the domain, you take the bottom function, and set it equal to 0.

$\sqrt{x-2} =0$

When you solve that, you get x=2. You know your domain is x≥2, but there is as asymptote at x=11. That means the graph never reaches x=11, but gets very close. You find that by setting the entire equation equal to 0 and solve from there.

A pond has 150 fish and the population decreases by 8% each day. How many days before there are 30 fish

nlexa [21]

Answer:

19 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a = 150$ --- initial

$r = 8\%$ -- rate

Required

Days when the fish gets to 30

The function is exponential and as such it follows;

$y = ab^x$

Where x represents the number of days and y the number of fishes

Because the fishes decreases;

$b = 1 - r$

So, we have:

$b = 1 - 8\%$

Express as decimal

$b = 1 - 0.08$

$b = 0.92$

In $y = ab^x$

$a =150$

$y = 30$

$b = 0.92$

So, we have:

$30 = 150 * 0.92^x$

Divide both sides by 150

$0.2 = 0.92^x$

Take log of both sides

$log(0.2) = log(0.92^x)$

Apply law of logarithm

$log(0.2) = x\ log(0.92)$

Make x the subject

$x = \frac{log(0.2)}{log(0.92)}$

$x = \frac{-0.6990}{-0.0362}$

$x = 19.309$

$x \approx 19$

Hence, it takes approximately 19 days

Giving 100 points.

Nitella [24]

Answer:

1. Cost per customer: 10 + x

Average number of customers: 16 - 2x

$\textsf{2.} \quad -2x^2-4x+160\geq 130$

3. $10, $11, $12 and $13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

$10 = cost of buffet per customer
16 customers choose the buffet per hour
Every $1 increase in the cost of the buffet = loss of 2 customers per hour
$130 = minimum revenue needed per hour

Let x = the number of $1 increases in the cost of the buffet

Part 1

Cost per customer: 10 + x

Average number of customers: 16 - 2x

Part 2

The cost per customer multiplied by the number of customers needs to be at least $130. Therefore, we can use the expressions found in part 1 to write the inequality:

$(10 + x)(16 - 2x)\geq 130$

$\implies 160-20x+16x-2x^2\geq 130$

$\implies -2x^2-4x+160\geq 130$

Part 3

To determine the possible buffet prices that Noah could charge and still maintain the restaurant owner's revenue requirements, solve the inequality:

$\implies -2x^2-4x+160\geq 130$

$\implies -2x^2-4x+30\geq 0$

$\implies -2(x^2+2x-15)\geq 0$

$\implies x^2+2x-15\leq 0$

$\implies (x-3)(x+5)\leq 0$

Find the roots by equating to zero:

$\implies (x-3)(x+5)=0$

$x-3=0 \implies x=3$

$x+5=0 \implies x=-5$

Therefore, the roots are x = 3 and x = -5.

Test the roots by choosing a value between the roots and substituting it into the original inequality:

$\textsf{At }x=2: \quad -2(2)^2-4(2)+160=144$

As 144 ≥ 130, the solution to the inequality is between the roots:

-5 ≤ x ≤ 3

To find the range of possible buffet prices Noah could charge and still maintain a minimum revenue of $130, substitute x = 0 and x = 3 into the expression for "cost per customer.

[Please note that we cannot use the negative values of the possible values of x since the question only tells us information about the change in average customers per hour considering an increase in cost. It does not confirm that if the cost is reduced (less than $10) the number of customers increases per hour.]

Cost per customer:

$x =0 \implies 10 + 0=\$10$

$x=3 \implies 10+3=\$13$

Therefore, the possible buffet prices Noah could charge are:

$10, $11, $12 and $13.

Select all of the following ordered pairs that are in the solution set of the inequality shown.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

points on the boundary line: (0, 10), (20, 0)
solution points not on the boundary line: (100, 100)

Step-by-step explanation:

We cannot tell from the posted picture whether the boundary line is solid or dashed, so the answer above is split into two parts. If the boundary line is solid (x+2y≥20), all three listed points are in the solution set. If the boundary line is dashed (x+2y>20), only (100, 100) is in the solution set.
