Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

There are theorems regarding Property of Similar polygons.

Corresponding sides are in proportion.

triangle ABE is similar to triangle ACD

AB:BC = AE: ED

x:10 = 9:6

(x/10) = (9/6)

x = 10*9/6 = 5*3 = 15

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (–1,5) and is parallel

enot [183]

Answer:

y = - x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the slope-intercept form, which is:

y=x-6.

Then, y=x+6

y=-x+4 should be the answer since it passes through the point (-1, 5)

Solve (u + 10) ^ (4/3) = 4 where u is a real

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

-7.17

Step-by-step explanation:

${(u + 10)}^{ \frac{4}{3} } = 4 \\ \\ u + 10 = {4}^{ \frac{3}{4} } \\ \\ u + 10 = ( {2}^{2} )^{ \frac{3}{4} } \\ \\ u + 10 = {2}^{2 \times \frac{3}{4} } \\ \\ u + 10 = {2}^{ \frac{3}{2} } \\ \\ u + 10 = {8}^{ \frac{1}{2} } \\ \\ u + 10 = \sqrt{8} \\ \\ u + 10 = 2.82842712 \\ \\ u = 2.82842712 - 10 \\ \\ u = -7.17157288 \\ \\ u \approx-7.17$

Find the volume of revolution bounded by the curves y = 4 – x2 , y = x, and x = 0, and is revolved about the vertical axis.

aleksley [76]

$4-x^2=x\\
x^2+x-4=0\\
\Delta=1^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-4)=1+16=17\\
x_1=\dfrac{-1-\sqrt{17}}{2}\\
x_2=\dfrac{-1+\sqrt{17}}{2}\\\\
\displaystyle
V=\pi\int\limits_0^{\dfrac{-1+\sqrt{17}}{2}}(4-x^2-x)^2\,dx\\
V=\pi\int\limits_0^{\dfrac{-1+\sqrt{17}}{2}}(16-4x^2-4x-4x^2+x^4+x^3-4x+x^3+x^2)\,dx\\
V=\pi\int\limits_0^{\dfrac{-1+\sqrt{17}}{2}}(x^4+2x^3-7x^2-8x+16)\,dx\\
V=\pi \left[\dfrac{x^5}{5}+\dfrac{x^4}{2}-\dfrac{7x^3}{3}-4x^2+16x\right]_0^{\dfrac{-1+\sqrt{17}}{2}}\\
$

The rest of solution in the attachment.

There's a mistake in the picture
It shoud be
$V=\pi\left(\dfrac{289\sqrt{17}-521}{60}\right)\approx35$
