Answer:

The length of straw is 21 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Lengths of straw = 4x^2-3 , 4x^2-2, 4x^2-1 inches.

Perimeter of the triangle is 12x^2-6  inches.

Perimeter of triangle is sum of three sides .

Thus, when we open the triangle we obtain the length of straw thus perimeter is the length of the straw.

Given x = 1.5 inches

Put in perimeter, we get,

Length of straw = Perimeter of triangle= 12x^2-6 at x = 1.5 inches

\Rightarrow 12(1.5)^2-6=12\times2.25-6=27-6=21

Thus, the length of straw is 21 inches.

4. Determine whether f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

YES! we conclude that f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Given that the function f(x) and g(x) are inverse functions.

f\left(x\right)\:=\:\frac{1}{3}x\:+\:5

g(x) = 3x - 15

To determine

Let us determine whether f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.

<u>Determining the inverse function of f(x) </u>

A function g is the inverse function of f if for y = f(x), x = g(y)

y=\frac{1}{3}x+5

Replace x with y

x=\frac{1}{3}y+5

Solve for y

y=3x-15

Therefore,

YES! we conclude that f(x) = 1/3x + 5 and g(x) = 3x - 15 are inverse functions.

Please help me! 7 points!! I don’t understand
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

This is adding two vectors, one magnitude 300 direction east, and one magnitude 100 direction 30 degrees northeast.

For the resulting sum we can use the Law of Cosines or just add up the components.  Let's try it both ways.

Components first.   In the east direction we have

300 + 100 cos 30° = 300 + 100(√3/2) = 386.60 miles per hour

In the north direction we have

0 + 100 sin 30° = 100 (1/2) =  50 miles per hour

So a total speed of

sqrt{386.6^2 + 50^2} = 389.82 miles per hour

Answer: 389.82

--------

OK let's try the Law of Cosines.   We have sides 300 and 100 and included angle 150°.

c^2 = 300^2 + 100^2 - 2 (300)(100) \cos 150^\circ

c=\sqrt{151961.52422} = 389.82 \quad\checkmark

You spend $16 on 3 notebooks and x binders . Notebooks cost $2 each and binders cost $5 each. Write an equation you can use to f
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation as:

Price of books times number of books + price of binders times number of binders = total price

So then the final answer is 3(2)+5(x)=16

Olve for x. 3(3x - 1) + 2(3 - x) = 0 x = 3/7 x = -3/7 x = 1/3 x = -1/3
zloy xaker [14]

<u>Answer:</u>

x = -3/7

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following equation for which we have to solve for x:

3(3x - 1) + 2(3 - x) = 0

So we will start by expanding the equation by multiplying the common factor with the brackets to get:

9x-3+6-2x=0

Arranging the like terms together (variables on one side of the equation and constants on the other side) to get:

9x-2x=3-6\\\\7x=-3\\\\x=-\frac{3}{7}

Therefore, x = -3/7.
