f(x) = ax^2 - 4x + b

If x = -2 , 3 are solutions of zeros function f(x) then b = ?

If x = -2 then a(-2)^2 - 4(-2) + b = 0

4a + 8 + b = 0 (1st)

If x = 3. then a(3)^2 - 4(3) + b = 0

9a - 12 + b = 0 (2nd)

Subtract (2nd) and (1st)

4a + 8 + b = 0 (1st)

9a - 12 + b = 0 (2nd)

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

-5a + 20 = 0

-5a = -20

a = 4

Substitute a = 4 into 4a + 8 + b = 0 (1st)

4(4) + 8 + b = 0

16 + 8 = -b

b = -24

Answer is A) -24

Double check:

a = 4 and b = -24 so

f(x) = 4x^2 - 4x - 24

zero function:

4x^2 - 4x - 24 = 0

4(x^2 - x - 6) = 0

4(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0

x - 3= 0; x = 3

x = -2 = 0; x = -2

x = -2 , 3 are solutions of the function.

Use the Divergence Theorem to calculate the surface integral S F · dS; that is, calculate the flux of F across S. F(x, y, z) = x
kykrilka [37]

\vec F has divergence

\nabla\cdot\vec F=\dfrac{\partial(xye^z)}{\partial x}+\dfrac{\partial(xy^2z^3)}{\partial y}-\dfrac{\partial(ye^z)}{\partial z}=ye^z+2xyz^3-ye^z=2xyz^3

By the divergence theorem, the integral of \vec F across S is equal to the integral of \nabla\cdot\vec F over the interior of S:

\displaystyle\iiint_S\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\int_0^1\int_0^6\int_0^32xyz^3\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dz=\boxed{\frac{81}2}

Danielle wants to know if a new dresser will fit next to her bed. The dresser she would like to buy is 73 centimeters wide. She
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

No.

The dresser's width(28.74in) is greater than the remaining free width(10in) in the room.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the chest width into inches,73cm=28.74 \ in

To find the excess width after fitting the bed in her room, we subtract the bed width from the room's width:

Width_R=86 \ in\\Width_B=76 \ in\\\\Width_{excess}=Width_R-Width_B\\\\=86\ in -76\ in\\\\=10\ in

Since 10in is less than 28.74in, the dresser will not fit next to her bed.

I am Lyosha [343]

Any y = ? equation is a horizontal line that passes through the number given.

y = 7 would be a line passing through 7 on the y - axis and staying flat and never rising.

Hope this helps! ;)
