D=Vl^2+w^2

20=V 12^2+W^2

400= 144+w^2
w^2=400-144
w^2=256
w=V256
w=16

If h(x)=(f o g) (x) and h(x)= ∛x+3, find g( x) if f(x)= ∛x+2 (picture attached)
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

g(x) = x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Informally, you can see that the function h(x) takes the root of a value that is 1 more than the value under the same radical in f(x). This suggests that adding 1 to x in f(x) will give you h(x). That is, ...

h(x) = f(x+1) = f(g(x))

so

g(x) = x+1

_____

More formally, you can apply the inverse of the function f(x) to the equation ...

h(x) = f(g(x))

f^-1(h(x)) = f^-1(f(g(x))) . . . inverse function applied

f^-1(h(x)) = g(x) . . . . . . . . . simplified

Now f^-1(x) can be found by solving for y in ...

x = f(y)

x = ∛(y+2) . . . . . . . . . definition of f(y)

x^3 = y+2 . . . . . . . . . cube both sides

x^3 -2 = y = f^-1(x) . . . subtract 2 from both sides

So, f^-1(h(x)) is ...

f^-1(h(x)) = g(x) = (∛(x+3))^3 -2 = x+3 -2

g(x) = x+1

Ken spent 1/5 of his allowance on a movie, 3/8 on snacks, and 2/7 on games. If his allowance was $20, how much did Ken have left
Wewaii [24]
1/5 of 20 is $4. So, 20-4=$16 remaining.
3/8 of 16 is $7.50. So, 16-7.50= $8.50 remaining.
2/7 of 8.5 is $2.43. So, 8.50-2.43 is $6.07

Answer: Ken has $6.07 left after all his purchases.

Find all the zeros of the equation x^4-6x^2-7x-6=0
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The zeros are

x=-2,\:x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}+i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\:x=-\frac{1}{2}-i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation x^4-6x^2-7x-6=0

Use rational root theorem, we have

a_0=6,\:\quad a_n=1

\mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_0:\quad 1,\:2,\:3,\:6,\:\quad \mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_n:\quad 1

\mathrm{Therefore,\:check\:the\:following\:rational\:numbers:\quad }\pm \frac{1,\:2,\:3,\:6}{1}

-\frac{2}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x+2

=\left(x+2\right)\frac{x^4-6x^2-7x-6}{x+2}\\

=x^3-2x^2-2x-3

Again factor using the rational root test, we get

=\left(x+2\right)\left(x-3\right)\left(x^2+x+1\right)

Using the zero product rule, we have

x+2=0:\quad x=-2\\x-3=0:\quad x=3\\x^2+x+1=0\\\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{1^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:1}}{2\cdot \:1}\\\\=-\frac{1}{2}+i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\:x=-\frac{1}{2}-i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Therefore, the zeros are

x=-2,\:x=3,\:x=-\frac{1}{2}+i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2},\:x=-\frac{1}{2}-i\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Approximately how many times bigger was the 1908 siberian asteroid than the diameter of the chelyabinsk asteroid
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

1908 Siberian Asteroid is known to be 130 feet/ 18 meters in diameter while on the other hand Chelyabinsk Asteroid is known to be 59 feet/40 meters in diameter. To find how many times Siberian Asteroid is bigger than Chelyabinsk Asteroid we just have to divide Siberian by Chelyabinsk here we get:

10/59=2.2 = 1908 Siberian Asteroid is 2.2 times bigger than Chelyabinsk Asteroid.
