What does the graph of f(x)=(3x-5)(x+9) cross the x axis

Hello.

Firstly, we need to simplify the function:

\mathsf{f(x) = (3x - 5) \times (x + 9)} \\ \\ \mathsf{f(x) = 3x^{2} - 5x + 27x - 45} \\ \\ \mathsf{f(x) = 3x^{2} + 22x - 45}

The graph crosses the 'x' axis when y = 0. Ergo:

\mathsf{3x^{2} + 22x - 45 = 0} \\ \\ \\ \mathsf{\triangle = b^{2} - 4ac} \\ \\ \mathsf{\triangle = 484 - 4 \times 3 \times (-45)} \\ \\ \mathsf{\triangle = 484 + 540} \\ \\ \mathsf{\triangle = 1024} \\ \\ \\ \mathsf{x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{\triangle}}{2a}} \\ \\ \\ \mathsf{x_{1} = \dfrac{-22 + 32}{6} = \dfrac{10}{6} = \dfrac{5}{3}} \\ \\ \\ \mathsf{x_{2} = \dfrac{-22 - 32}{6} = \dfrac{-54}{6} = -9}

Therefore, the graph crosses the x axis when x = -9 and 5/3.

Hope I helped.

Answer:

Surface area = 6l^2

Volume = l^3

If total surface area increased by 2, then the length increased by \sqrt{2}

Volume then is increased by (\sqrt{2}l)^3 = 2\sqrt{2}l^3

1 :2 \sqrt{2}

Which is not an option in the question so this question clearly has a problem.

First of all It's supposed to be "then" not "than," so I'm not sure who teaches math without even knowing this basic grammar.

Second of all, if the answer is 8:1 the question should be "If <u>each sides</u> of a cube is doubled" not "the lateral surface area." Come to think of it what even is lateral surface area of a cube if all sides of the cube is supposed to be same.

Or, if the answer is 2:1 then, it should be If height lateral surface area of a cube is doubled <u>by doubling the height and without changing the length and width</u>"  But, then the the shape would no longer be a cube.

Who even wrote this garbage question what.

first polygon

ext. angle=180°-120°

=60°

ext \: ang =  \frac{360}{n}

n=360°/60°

n=6

second polygon

n=2(6)=12

ext. ang= 360°/n = 360°/12° = 30°

int. ang = 180°-30°= 150°

answer is C

Answer:

The height of the seat at point B above the ground is approximately 218.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The radius of the Ferris wheel, r = 125 feet

The angle between each seat, θ = 36°

The height of the Ferris wheel above the ground = 20 feet

Therefore, we have;

The height of the midline, D = The height of the Ferris wheel above the ground + The radius of the Ferris wheel

∴ The height of the midline = 20 feet + 125 feet = 145 feet

The height of the seat at point B above the ground, h = r × sin(θ) + D

By substitution, we have;

h = 125 × sin(36°) + 145 ≈ 218.5 (The answer is rounded to the nearest tenth)

The height of the seat at point B above the ground, h ≈ 218.5 feet.
