Answer:

The value of x (which is also the height of this triangle) is x = 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle of base b and height h is

A = (1/2)(b)(h).

Here A = 10 units² = (1/2)(4 units)(x).

Multiplying both sides by 2 yields 20 units² = (4units)(x), and thus

20 units²

x = ------------------ = 5 units

4 units

The value of x (which is also the height of this triangle) is x = 5 units.

Function F(x)=x+1 and g(x)=5x+1 find the f(4)=g(x+1)

Lapatulllka [165]

The function of f(4) = g(x+1) gives the value of x that is -1/5.

<h3>What is the function addition?</h3>

It is the addition of two functions similar to the addition of any two polynomial functions.

Given;

F(x)=x+1

g(x)=5x+1

We need to find f(4)=g(x+1)

First substitute x = 4 in f(x)

F(x)=x+1

F(4) = 4 + 1

F(4) = 5

Now substitute x = x + 1 in g(x)

g(x)=5x+1

g(x + 1) = 5(x + 1) + 1

g(x + 1) = 5x + 5 + 1

g(x + 1) = 5x + 6

Then ,

F(4) = g(x + 1)

5 = 5x + 6

5x = 5 - 6

5x = -1

x = -1/5.

The function of f(4) = g(x+1) gives the value of x that is -1/5.

When analyzing three linear functions, Michele noticed that they all intersected at the point (5, 3). What conclusion can Michel

qwelly [4]

Answer:

The linear function with the smallest slope must be multiple of one of the other two linear functions if all functions are coplanar. Otherwise, they intersect at the given point in space.

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of two linear functions with two variables have an unique solution on a given plane, as there are three linear function, it means that linear function with the smallest slope must be multiple of one of the other two linear functions.

But, if those functions are not all coplanar and have 3 variables, they intersect at the given point.

the equation of a circle in general form is x squared + y squared + 20x + 12 y + 15 equals 0what is the equation of the circle i

Marrrta [24]

Answer: $(x+10)^2+(y+6)^2=121$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in the general form is:

$ax^{2}+by^2+cx+dy+e=0$

The equaton of a circle in standard form is:

$(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2$

Where the center is at <em>(h, k)</em> and <em>r</em> is the radius

To write the equation of a circle from general form to standard form, you must complete the squaare, as you can see below:

1- Given the equation in general form:

$x^{2}+y^2+20x+12y+15=0$

2- Complete the square:

-Group the like terms and move the constant to the other side.

- Complete the square on the left side of the equation.

- Add the same value to the other side.

Then you obtain:

$(x^{2}+20x)+(y^2+12y)=-15\\(x^2+20x+(\frac{20}{2})^2)+(y^2+12y+(\frac{12}{2})^2)=-15+(\frac{20}{2})^2+(\frac{12}{2})^2\\\\(x+10)^2+(y+6)^2=-15+100+36\\(x+10)^2+(y+6)^2=121$
