The correct answers are x≠2 and x≠(-2).

Domain restrictions are any points in the domain where the function will not have a value.  This basically means that it's a point where x won't work in the function.

For the numerator, any value will work for x.  We can have a value of 0 in the numerator, or a positive, negative, or decimal number.

However, the denominator cannot equal 0.  This is because a fraction bar represents division, and we cannot divide by 0.  The values that make the denominator 0 can be found by:

x²-4=0

Add 4 to both sides:
x²-4+4 = 0+4
x² = 4

Take the square root of both sides:
√x² = √4

x = 2 or x = -2.

Answer:

The restrictions on domain are are: x \neq -2, x\neq 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We are given an expression:

\displaystyle\frac{x^2 + 4x +4}{x^2-4}

Simplifying the given fraction, we have,

\displaystyle\frac{x^2 + 4x +4}{x^2-4}\\\\=\frac{(x+2)^2}{(x+2)(x-2)}\\\\=\frac{(x+2)(x+2)}{(x+2)(x-2)}

The domain is basically collection of all values of x such that the expression is defined.

We need to make sure that the denominator is not equal to zero for the given fraction.

Thus,

(x+2)(x-2) \neq 0\\\Rightarrow (x+2) \neq 0, (x-2) \neq 0\\\Rightarrow x \neq -2, x\neq 2

Hence, the restrictions on domain are are:

x \neq -2, x\neq 2

The sum of the lengths of two opposite sides of the circumscribed quadrilateral is 10 cm, and its area is 12 cm2. Find the radiu
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of sircumscribed quadrilateral over a circle is equal to

A=s\cdot r,

where s is semi-perimeter of the quadrilateral and r is the radius of the circle.

Use property of circumscribed quadrilateral: The sums of the opposite sides are equal.  

So, if the sum of two opposite sides of the circumscribed quadrilateral is 10 cm, then the sum of another two sides is also 10 cm and the perimeter of the quadrilateral is 20 cm. Hence,

s=\dfrac{20}{2}=10\ cm

Now,

A=s\cdot r\\ \\12=10r\\ \\r=\dfrac{12}{10}=1.2\ cm

The population of big cats in Africa is increasing at a rate of 5% per year. At the
sesenic [268]

Answer:

a) 10,500 big cats

b) 13,401 big cats

c) 33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply an exponential growth function:  

A = P (1 + r) t  

Where:  

p = original population  

r = growing rate (decimal form; 5/100= 0.05)

t= years  

A = population after t years  

Replacing with the values given:  

a) At 2005, 1 year passed since 2004 (t=1)

A = 10,000 (1+ 0.05)^1

A = 10,500 big cats

b)

At 2010, 6 years passed since 2004 (2010-2004= 6)

A = 10,000 (1+ 0.05)^6

A = 13,401 big cats

c)

50,000 < 10,000 (1+ 0.05)^t

Solving for t:

50,000/10,000 < 1.05^t

5 < 1.05^t

log 5 < log 1.05^t

log 5 < t ( log 1.05)

log 5 / log 1.05 < t

32.9 years < t

33 years  = t
