The answer is m=5 and m=-2. There is no extraneous solution for this equation.

Answer:

  The extraneous solution is m = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is normally solved by squaring both sides and solving the resulting quadratic.

(3-m)^2=19-3m\\\\m^2-3m-10=0 \quad\text{subtract 19-3m}\\\\(m-5)(m+2)=0 \quad\text{factor}

The values of m that make the factors zero are 5 and -2. For m=5, the equation becomes ...

  5-3 = √(19-3·5)   ⇒   2 = √4 . . . . . true

For m = -2, the equation becomes ...

  -2-3 = √(19-3(-2))   ⇒   -5 = √25 . . . . . not true

The extraneous solution is m = -2.

_____

Solving the equation graphically, it becomes readily apparent that the only solution is m=5. Extra work is required to see the extraneous solution is m=-2.

(Q1) Which is the graph of the catenary y=e^x+e^-x/2
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

  a.

Step-by-step explanation:

A catenary looks a lot like a parabola. Only graph "a" has that appearance.

___

A graphing calculator can help you choose, or you can recognize the nature of the terms of the sum.

e^x looks like graph D; e^-x looks like graph B. Their sum will always be positive, so cannot create graph C. At x=0, the average of the two graphs B and D will be 1, corresponding to the minimum of graph A.

irakobra [83]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

First of all, let's define what a function is:

A function f from a set A to a set B is a relation that assigns to each element x in the set A exactly one element y in the set B. The set A is the domain (also called the set of inputs) of the function and the set B contains the range (also called the set of outputs).

The ordered pairs has been plotted below. As you can see, the set B is the only relation that meets the requirements of the concept of function because that relation assigns each element x in the set A exactly one element y in the set B. For the other sets, at least one element x in the set A matches to two or more elements y in the set B.
