The area of a regular octagon is 35 cm^2. What is the area of a regular octagon with sides five times as long?

So... let's say the smaller regular octagon has sides of "x" long, then the larger octagon will have sides of 5x.

\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{ratio relations}
\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccllll}
&Sides&Area&Volume\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}&\cfrac{s}{s}&\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}&\cfrac{s^3}{s^3}
\end{array} \\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}\qquad \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{\sqrt{s^2}}{\sqrt{s^2}}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \cfrac{small}{large}\quad \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{s^2}{s^2}}\implies \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{x^2}{(5x)^2}}\implies \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{x^2}{5^2x^2}}\implies \stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{\underline{x^2}}{25\underline{x^2}}}=\stackrel{area~ratio}{\cfrac{35}{a}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{25}=\cfrac{35}{a}\implies a=\cfrac{25\cdot 35}{1}

Describe the behavior of the graph at the x-intercepts for the function f(x)=(2x-7)^7(x+3)^4. Identify each x-intercept and just
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

f(x)=(2x-7)^7(x+3)^4

When y=0, (2x-7)^7=0 and x=3.5 OR

(x+3)^4=0, and x=-3

Look at x=h or f(2)

That is 96-56-44+2 and it is not equal to 0. (x-2) is not a factor.

x^3-5x^2+6x-30

after trying 1,2, and 3, I tried 5

5/1===-5===6===-30

==1===0====6====30

(x^2-6) with no remainder

the factors are (x-5)(x^2+6)

the zeroes are 5, +/- i sqrt (6). Only one real 0.

hope this helps let me know in the comments if i'm wrong

Which do you prefer: leaving √5 in radical form, or converting it to a decimal? Why? When would it be useful to use each?
Goshia [24]

Answer:

Leaving as a radical form

Why?

Because that's the whole value if you convert it to a decimal you cannot write all the numbers, and in the radical form it has all the numbers

It would be useful when we are working with equations for example the quadratic equation, if you get that x=√5, you would want the exact value. And there are more useful
