Answer:

1 3/4 or 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to do this is to convert to decimals

1/4 = 0.25

2/4 = 0.5

3/4 = 0.75

Now, for the numbers for this problem.

2 3/4 would be equal to 2.75

3 1/2 would be equal to 3.5

Add those two numbers together and you get 6.25

Subtract that from 8 and you get 1.75 or 1 3/4

Answer:

52.9 inches .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the triangular indentation has an area of 100 in.² and the base and height of this traingle are represented by expressions 3x and x+3 respectively . We need to find out the <u>perimeter </u>to the nearest tenth.

As we know that the area of triangle is ,

\rm\longrightarrow Area_{\triangle}=\dfrac{1}{2}(base)(height)

Substituting the respective values,

\rm\longrightarrow 100\ =\dfrac{1}{2}(x+3)(3x)\\\\\rm\longrightarrow 2(100) = 3x(x+3)\\\\\rm\longrightarrow200 = 3x^2+9x\\\\\rm\longrightarrow 3x^2+9x-200=0

On using the <u>Quadratic</u><u> formula</u> , we have;

\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm\sqrt{9^2-4(3)(-200)}}{2(3)} \\\\\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm \sqrt{81+1200}}{6}\\\\\rm\longrightarrow x =\dfrac{-9\pm \sqrt{1281}}{6}

On simplifying above , we will get ,

\rm\longrightarrow x = 6.802,-9.802

Since sides can't be negative, therefore,

\rm\longrightarrow\underline{\underline{ x =6.802}}

Therefore ,

  • \rm\longrightarrow Base = 3x =3(6.802)in = 20.406\ in\\
  • \rm\longrightarrow Height = x +3=6.802+3=9.802\ in

Next let's find out the <u>hypotenuse </u>using Pythagoras theorem, as ;

\rm\longrightarrow h=\sqrt{ b^2+p^2}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h =\sqrt{ (20.406)^2+(9.802)^2}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h =\sqrt{416.40+96.07}\\

\rm\longrightarrow h = 22.63\ in

Now we may find perimeter as ,

\rm\longrightarrow P = p + b + h \\

\rm\longrightarrow P = (22.63 + 9.802 + 20.406)in.

\\\rm\longrightarrow P = 52.89 \ in.\\

\rm\longrightarrow \underline{\underline{ Perimeter = 52.9\ in .}}

The degree of the polynomial function f(x) is 4.
Leto [7]

See the graph below

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

A polynomial function whose degree is 4 is given by the form:

f(x)=ax^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e \\ \\ Or: \\ \\ f(x)=a(x-x_{1})(x-x_{2})(x-x_{3})(x-x_{4}) \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ x_{1},x_{2},x_{3} \ and \ x_{4} \ are \ the \ roots

Here the roots are:

x_{1}=-8 \\ \\ x_{2}=-5 \\ \\ x_{3}=1 \\ \\ x_{4}=2

If we set a=1 then:

f(x)=(x+8)(x+5)(x-1)(x-2)

Finally, by using graphing tool we get the graph of our polynomial function:
