Because the emperor penguin is 24 inches taller than the rockhopper, we use the equation 45 - 24 = r. (r is a variable for rockhopper penguin.)

Solve 42 - 24 = r
18 = r therefore, the height of the rockhopper is 18 inches.

We can check our answers. 24 + 18 is the height if the emperor, which is 45 inches.

Answer:

The height of the  rockhopper penguin be 21 inches .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given in the question be as follow .

An emperor penguin is 45 inches tall.

It is 24 inches taller than a rockhopper penguin.

Let us assume that the  height of the rockhopper penguin be x .

Equation becomes

Emperor penguin height =  Rockhopper penguin + x

45 = 24 + x

x = 45 - 24

x = 21 inches

Threrefore the height of the  rockhopper penguin be 21 inches .

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the​ segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint.​ (Hint: Let​ (x,y) be the unkno
spin [16.1K]
The other endpoint is (1, -17).

The midpoint formula is:

m=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Using our midpoint and endpoint, we have:
(6, -11) = (\frac{11+x_2}{2}, \frac{-5+y_2}{2})
\\
\\6=\frac{11+x_2}{2} \text{ and } -11=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}


For the first equation (to find the x-coordinate) we will multiply both sides by 2:
6\times2=\frac{11+x_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\12=11+x_2

Subtract 11 from both sides:
12 - 11 = 11+x₂ - 11
1 = x₂

For the second equation (the y-coordinate) we multiply both sides by 2:
-11\times2=\frac{-5+y_2}{2}\times 2
\\
\\-22=-5+y_2

Add 5 to both sides:
-22+5 = -5+y₂ + 5
-17 = y₂

This means that (x₂, y₂) is at (1, -17).

The quotient of (x4 + 5x3 – 3x – 15) and a polynomial is (x3 – 3). What is the polynomial?
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Dividend

 =x^4 + 5 x^3 - 3 x - 15

Divisor

=x^3-3

The rule of division of polynomial which is same as division of real numbers states that

Dividend = Divisor × Quotient + Remainder

The division process is shown below.

Quotient = x+5

Remainder =0

notka56 [123]
The correct answer for this question is this one:

"Y<span>our friend says that the graph is not continuous because it stops at d = 5, so the graph is discrete." Your friend is wrong. The graph is still continuous because the graph shows continuity. The problem only shows the graph at certain t time. This means that the graph can be extended at any t time.</span>
