Answer:

Option D)Neither solution is extraneous.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$\sqrt{11-2x}=\sqrt{x^{2}+4x+4}$

we know that

two possible solutions are x=-7 and x=1

<u><em>Verify each solution</em></u>

Substitute each value of x in the expression above and interpret the results

1) For x=-7

$\sqrt{11-2(-7)}=\sqrt{-7^{2}+4(-7)+4}$

$\sqrt{25}=\sqrt{25}$

$5=5$ ----> is true

therefore

x=-7 is not a an extraneous solution

2) For x=1

$\sqrt{11-2(1)}=\sqrt{1^{2}+4(1)+4}$

$\sqrt{9}=\sqrt{9}$

$3=3$ ----> is true

therefore

x=1 is not a an extraneous solution

therefore

Neither solution is extraneous

Assuming you mean f(x)=x+3, find f(3.6) and f(-0.2)

f(3.6)=3.6+3=6.6
f(-0.2)=-0.2+3=2.8

Noel and Casey both start at the same place. Noel walks due south and Casey walks due east. After some time has passed, Noel is

Dovator [93]

Answer:

2.04 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Noel

$n_1 =6miles$

$r_1 = 2mph$

Casey

$c_1 = 8miles$

$r_2 =1mph$

Required

The rate at which the distance increases

Their movement forms a right triangle and the distance between them is the hypotenuse.

At $n_1 =6miles$ and $c_1 = 8miles$

The distance between them is:

$d_1 = \sqrt{n_1^2 + c_1^2}$

$d_1 = \sqrt{6^2 + 8^2}$

$d_1 = \sqrt{100}$

$d_1 = 10miles$

After 1 hour, their new position is:

New = Old + Rate * Time

$n_2 = n_1 + r_1 * 1$

$n_2 = 6 + 2 * 1 = 8$

And:

$c_2 = c_1 + r_2 * 1$

$c_2 = 8 + 1 * 1 = 9$

So, the distance between them is now:

$d_2 = \sqrt{n_2^2 + c_2^2}$

$d_2 = \sqrt{8^2 + 9^2}$

$d_2 = \sqrt{145}$

$d_2 = 12.04$

The rate of change is:

$\triangle d = d_2 -d_1$

$\triangle d = 12.04 -10$

$\triangle d = 2.04$
