What is the value of g(−3) when g(x)=2x−2 ?

1 answer:

4 0

To solve a function like this, simply put the numerical value in place of the unknown variable for which you have to find the solution, for instance '-3' in this case.

g(x) = 2x-2

so to find g(-3), we just need to replace the x in the given expression by '-3'. Working is shown below:

g(x) = 2x-2

putting '-3' in place of x

g(-3) = 2(-3) - 2

g(-3) = -6 -2

g(-3) = -8

2. Think of the top and middle shelves as two lines cut by a transversal. What type of angles are

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Angles 1 and 5 are corresponding angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the different types of angles formed by a transversal:

1. Corresponding angles are angles that lie on the <em>same side</em> of the transversal line. Angles 1, 3, 5, 6, 9, and 11 are corresponding angles because they are all on the left side of the transversal (the line that cuts through the other lines). Angles 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 are corresponding angles because they are all on the right side of the transversal.

2. Alternate interior angles are angles that are nonadjacent angles that lie on opposite sides of the transversal and in between the horizontal lines. Here the alternate interior angles are 3 and 6, 4 and 5, 7 and 10, and 8 and 9.

3. Alternate exterior angles are those that are nonadjacent and lie on the outside of the horizontal lines. In this diagram, angles 1 and 12 and angles 2 and 11 are alternate exterior.

4. Same-side interior angles are angles that lie on the same side of the transversal and in between the horizontal lines. The same-side interior angles in this diagram are angles 3 and 5, 7 and 9, 4 and 6, and 8 and 10.

If a triangle has side lengths 5 cm, 18<br> cm, and 12 cm, is it a right triangle?

Dimas [21]

Answer:

No, it's not a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The Pythagorean Theorem states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (longest side of a right triangle) is equal to the sum of the area of the squares from the two other sides.

2. The longest side in this "triangle" has 18 centimeters, and the other 2 sides are 5 and 12 centimeters.

3. Let's apply the Pythagorean Theorem to see if 5^2 + 12^2 = 18^2

$5^2 + 12^2 = 18^2$
$25 + 144 = 324$
$169 \neq 324$

4. Okay, so the sum of the area of the squares from the two other sides is not equal to the hypotenuse squared, therefore, it's not a right triangle.

(Plus, it's not even a triangle because 7 < x < 17, and the third "side", 18, is not between 7 and 17.)
