If (x-1)(x+5)=(x-h)^2+K then what is the value of h

Solve for h:   (I'm using the completing the square)
(x - 1) (x + 5) = K + (x - h)^2
(x - 1) (x + 5) = K + (x - h)^2 is equivalent to K + (x - h)^2 = (x - 1) (x + 5):
K + (x - h)^2 = (x - 1) (x + 5)
Subtract K from both sides:
(x - h)^2 = (x - 1) (x + 5) - K
Take the square root of both sides:
x - h = sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K) or x - h = -sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K)
Subtract x from both sides:
-h = sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K) - x or x - h = -sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K)
Multiply both sides by -1:
h = x - sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K) or x - h = -sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K)
Subtract x from both sides:
h = x - sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K) or -h = -x - sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K)
Multiply both sides by -1:
Answer:  h = x - sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K) or h = x + sqrt((x - 1) (x + 5) - K)


Solve for h: using the quadratic formula)
(x - 1) (x + 5) = K + (x - h)^2
(x - 1) (x + 5) = K + (x - h)^2 is equivalent to K + (x - h)^2 = (x - 1) (x + 5):
K + (x - h)^2 = (x - 1) (x + 5)
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
h^2 + K - 2 h x + x^2 = (x - 1) (x + 5)
Subtract (x - 1) (x + 5) from both sides:
h^2 + K - 2 h x + x^2 - (x - 1) (x + 5) = 0
h = (2 x ± sqrt(4 x^2 - 4 (K + x^2 - (x - 1) (x + 5))))/2:
<span>Answer:  h = x + sqrt(-5 - K + 4 x + x^2) or h = x - sqrt(-5 - K + 4 x + x^2)</span>

Over what interval will the immediate value theorem apply
koban [17]

Answer:

Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.

Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or

an  [a,b] entirely to the right of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.

Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.

The local cable company charges $90 per month for basic and $12 per month for each additional premium cable channel.The function
Alika [10]

Answer:

2 additional premium channels

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given function, we substitute c(x) = 114 and solve for x:

114 =90 + 12x

Subtract 90 from both sides:

24=12x

Divide both sides by 12:

2=x

So you have ordered 2 additional premium channels.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by 3 and solve the resulting 2-step equation.

  5 = (1/3)(2x +12)

  15 = 2x +12 . . . . . . multiply by 3

  3 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  3/2 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

HELPP I don’t get this at all. I originally got c but my teacher said it was incorrect. This is about volume and cylinders. Expl
EastWind [94]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is \pi r^2 h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.

\pi \cdot 3.25^2 \cdot 10=105.625\pi \text{ cm}^3

Therefore, the correct answer is choice B. Hope this helps!
