Let

A-------> the angle

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

In the right triangle

$tan(A)=\frac{18}{15}$

$A=arctan(18/15)=50\°$

(−t 4 −5t 3 −10t 2 )+(9t 3 +3t 2 −1)

klemol [59]

Answer:

$\left(-t^4-5t^3-10t^2\right)+\left(9t^3+3t^2-1\right)=-t^4+4t^3-7t^2-1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$\left(-t^4\:-5t^3\:-10t^2\:\right)+\left(9t^3\:+3t^2\:-1\right)$

Remove parentheses: (a)=a

$=-t^4-5t^3-10t^2+9t^3+3t^2-1$

Group like terms

$=-t^4-5t^3+9t^3-10t^2+3t^2-1$

Add similar elements

$=-t^4-5t^3+9t^3-7t^2-1$ ∵ $-10t^2+3t^2=-7t^2$

Add similar elements

$=-t^4+4t^3-7t^2-1$ ∵ $-5t^3+9t^3=4t^3$

Thus, the equivalent expression in simplified form:

$\left(-t^4-5t^3-10t^2\right)+\left(9t^3+3t^2-1\right)=-t^4+4t^3-7t^2-1$

<u>Answer:</u>

$f(x) = x^2 , x < 2$

$f(x) = 5, 2\leq x < 4$

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

We have a parabola and a small line shown in the graph.

The parabola goes upto x = 2 but does not reach that very value. So x = 2 starts on the line above where x = 2 and ends just before x = 4.

Therefore, this function can be modeled by:

$f(x) = x^2 , x < 2$

$f(x) = 5, 2\leq x < 4$
