Answer:
f(19)=3/21-4=-3.857
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=3/(x+2)-sqrt(x-3)
f(19)=3/(19+2)-sqrt(19-3)
f(19)=3/21-sqrt(16)
f(19)=3/21-4
f(19)=-3.857
First we need to factor the left side. Since it is a perfect square (as is the process with completing the square, we know we can take half of the middle number along with x to be in the two parenthesis.
(x - 4)(x - 4) = 25
Now we simplify to show it as a square.
(x - 4)^2 = 25
Next we take the square root of both sides
x - 4 = +/- 5
Note that we have plus or minus 5. This is because either square would give us positive 25. Now we add 4 to both sides
x = 4 +/- 5
4 + 5 = 9
4 - 5 = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The length of a ladder, H = 20 feet
The height of the wall, h = 15 ft
We know that,

h is perpendicular and H is hypotenuse
So,

Now using Pythagoras theoerm,

Hence, the angle made by the ladder and the ground is 48.59° and the ladder is 13.2 feet from the wall on the ground.
It would take the tortoise 1 minutes and 15 seconds
Answer:
3, 15, 14
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 5x + ( 5x -1) = 32
11x - 1 = 32
11x = 32 + 1
11x = 33
11x/11 = 33/11
x = 3
therefore
the first number is 3
the second is 5 × 3 = 15
the third number is 15 - 1 = 14
