7) The area of rectangle A is twice the area of square B. Find x. 12

Mathematics

Veronika [31]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A=2B

AreaA= Area of a rectangle=Base* height = base (12-x)*height(4) = 48-4x

AreaB = Area of rectangle=base(x) *Height(x) =x^2

Since A=2B

48-4x =2x^2

Divide both sides of the equation by 2

24-2x=x^2

Put everything all on one side

X^2-2x-24=0

(x+4)(x-6)=0

X=-4 and x=6

Only x makes sense since it’s not negative or else your base or one of your sides would be negative

So x=6

Given the function graphed below, what is the average rate of change between f(3) and f(7)?
Shkiper50 [21]
Answer: choice D) 20

-------------------------------

Explanation:

Locate 3 on the x axis number line. Draw a vertical line through 3 and this vertical line will cross the parabola at some point P. Mark this point P on the parabola. Then draw a horizontal line from P to the y axis. The horizontal line will land on y = 10. In short, this all shows us that (3,10) is a point on this parabola.

Repeat those steps above, but now for x = 7. You'll see that (7,90) is another point on this parabola.

We need to find the slope of the line through the two points (3,10) and (7,90). The average rate of change from x = 3 to x = 7 is the same as the slope of the line through those two points.

To find the slope, we use the slope formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points, and m is the slope

In this case,
(x1,y1) = (3,10) and (x2,y2) = (7,90)
further breaking down to
x1=3
y1=10
x2=7
y2=90
So we'll plug those four pieces of info into the equation and simplifying to get...
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (90 - 10)/(7 - 3)
m = 80/4
m = 20

The slope of the line is 20, so therefore, the average rate of change is 20.

Help plz plzzzz 20 points!!!!
Genrish500 [490]
1: 14 ft
2: 18
3: 11; 28
4: 8; 96
5: a = 5x3
6: a = 8x8
7: 1x42, 2x21, 3x14, and 6x7. 6x7 probably makes the most sense.

One supplementary angle is 15 degrees less than twice the other. Find the measure of the two supplementary angles.
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The measure of the two supplementary angles are 65 degrees and 115 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of supplementary angles is equal to 180 degrees. Let x and y are two angles such that,

x+y=180\ ....(1)

According to given condition,

One supplementary angle is 15 degrees less than twice the other, it means,

x=2y-15\ .....(2)

Putting the value of x from above equation in equation (1),

2y-15+y=180\\\\3y-15=180\\\\3y=195\\\\y=\dfrac{195}{3}\\\\y=65^{\circ}

Now put the value of y in equation (1), so,

x+65=180\\\\x=115^{\circ}

So, the measure of the two supplementary angles are 65 degrees and 115 degrees.
