What is the solution of the equation? (√2x-1) + 2=x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gwar [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

√(2x − 1) + 2 = x

√(2x − 1) = x − 2

2x − 1 = (x − 2)²

2x − 1 = x² − 4x + 4

0 = x² − 6x + 5

0 = (x − 1) (x − 5)

x = 1 or 5

Check for extraneous solutions.

√(2(1) − 1) + 2 = 1

√(1) + 2 = 1

3 = 1

No solution

√(2(5) − 1) + 2 = 5

√(9) + 2 = 5

5 = 5

x = 5

Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 mill
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.

i.e. if V stands for volume of oil, then

V' =kV\\dv/V= kdt\\ln V = kt+C\\V = Ae^{kt}

To find A and k

V(0) = A = 3 million

Hence V = 3e^{kt}

V(6) = 1.5

i.e. 1.5 = 3e^{6k}\\ln 1.5 =ln 3 +6k\\k = -0.11552

V(t) = 3e^{-0.11552t}

a) Using the above value of k , we have

V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year.

1. What is the slope of the line tangent to the curve defined by y2 + xy - x2 = 11x at the point (2, 3)?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Step-by-step explanation:

By using Implicit Differentiation,

d/dx (y² + xy - x²) = d/dx (11x)

d/dx (y²) + d/dx (xy) - d/dx (x²) = 11

2y * dy/dx + x * dy/dx + y - 2x = 11

dy/dx (2y + x) = 11 + 2x - y

dy/dx = (11 + 2x - y) / (2y + x).

At the point (2, 3), we have x = 2, y = 3.

=> dy/dx = (11 + 2(2) - (3)) / (2(3) + (2))

= 12 / 8 = 1.5.

P.S. Your question is weird because (2,3) is not on the graph, let me know what is the correct question thanks!

Tia, Leah, and Tim all solve the problem 3(-x + 4) = -3x - 12. Tia solved and decided that the solution is x= 4. Leah solved the
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Tina

Step-by-step explanation:

bc if you sub in 4 for x the equations on both sides are 0

check:

-4 + 4 = 0                         -3 x 4 = -12

0 x 3 = 0                          12 + -12 = 0

                    0 = 0

please mark this as brainiest!!!!
