F(x) = 18-x^2 is a parabola having vertex at (0, 18) and opening downwards. 
g(x) = 2x^2-9 is a parabola having vertex at (0, -9) and opening upwards. 
By symmetry, let the x-coordinates of the vertices of rectangle be x and -x => its width is 2x. 
Height of the rectangle is y1 + y2, where y1 is the y-coordinate of the vertex on the parabola f and y2 is that of g.
 => Area, A 
= 2x (y1 - y2) 
= 2x (18 - x^2 - 2x^2 + 9) 
= 2x (27 - 3x^2) 
= 54x - 6x^3 
For area to be maximum, dA/dx = 0 and d²A/dx² < 0 
=> 54 - 18x^2 = 0 
=> x = √3 (note: x = - √3 gives the x-coordinate of vertex in second and third quadrants) 

d²A/dx² = - 36x < 0 for x = √3 
=> maximum area 
= 54(√3) - 6(√3)^3 
= 54√3 - 18√3 
= 36√3.

Help PLEASE!!! Find X for the triangle.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

<h2>8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse = 8\sqrt{2} \\Adjacent =x\\\alpha =45\\\\Using\: SOHCAHTOA\\Cos \alpha = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}\\\\Cos 45 = \frac{x}{8\sqrt{2} } \\\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} =\frac{x}{8\sqrt{2} }\\ \\Cross \: Multiply\\2x =16\\\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{16}{2} \\\\x =8

Help please logarithms​
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Simplified: 40

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify this, we need to first separate the terms in this expression. There is a property of exponents that says: x^{a+b} =x^ax^b We can do this same thing to simplify this expression. Next, we can simplify each of these terms. 2^2 simply becomes 4. In the other term, the 2^{log_2} simply cancel each other and leave the 10. This means that we're left with 4*10, which is 40

2^{2+log_210} \\\\2^2*2^{log_210} \\\\4*10\\\\40

Is this correct help plzz
const2013 [10]
None of the offered choices is correct.

The radical cannot be simplified. If rewritten, it must be written as something like
x \sqrt[3]{ \frac{6}{x}}
or
\frac{6x}{ \sqrt[3]{36x}}
