The work of a student trying to solve the equation 4(2x − 1) = 11 + 3x + 5 is shown below: Step 1: 4(2x − 1) = 11 + 3x + 5 Step

2: 8x − 4 = 16 + 3x Step 3: 8x + 3x = 16 − 4 Step 4: 11x = 24 Step 5: x = 2.18 In which step did the student first make an error and what is the correct step?
a. Step 2: 8x − 1 = 16 + 3x
b.Step 2: 8x − 8 = 6 + 3x
c.Step 3: 8x − 3x = 16 + 4
d.Step 3: 8x + 3x = 16 − 8

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(x-1)(x^2+2)^3\\f'(x)=(x-1)*3(x^2+2)^2*2x+(x^2+2)^3*1\\f'(x)=6x(x-1)(x^2+2)^2+(x^2+2)^3\\f'(x)=(x^2+2)^2[6x^2-6x+x^2+2]\\f'(x)=(x^2+2)^2(7x^2-6x+2)\\D

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed
Olegator [25]

Answer:

The length of shadow decrease at 0.48 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance of man from building = x

Thus initially, x = 12

It is given that dx/dt= -1.3 m/s

Let the shadow height = Y  

Now solve for the dy/dt when x=4

from the diagram (triangle) it can be seen similar triangles with similar base/height ratios.

\frac{2}{12-x} = \frac{y}{12} \\Y = \frac{24}{12 - x} \\ \frac{dy}{dt} = \frac{24}{(12-x)^{2}} \times \frac{dx}{dt} \\at x=4, dy/dt \ becomes: \\\frac{24}{(12-4)^2} \times -1.3 \\= -0.48 m/s

Maths question on algebraic equations ​= due in 10 minutes
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

108 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 16 = 3x - 12  (corresponding angles; AB parallel to CD).

16 + 12 = 3x - 2x

x = 28.

So the angle marked 3x - 12 = 3(28) - 12

= 72 degrees.

Angle y is adjacent to the angle so

y = 180 - 72

= 108 degrees.
