Answer:

see the attachments

Step-by-step explanation:

An inequality without the "or equal to" case is graphed with an open circle at its boundary point. If the "or equal to" case is included, then the dot at the boundary is filled in (a solid dot). The number line is shaded to the left or right of the boundary point, depending on whether the set being graphed includes values less than or greater than the boundary value. Usually, a line extending indefinitely will have an arrow on its end. (Not here, because the program used doesn't easily support drawing arrows.)

a. The boundary point at x=7.75 has an open circle, and the shading of the number line extends indefinitely to the right from there.

b. The boundary point at x=2.5 is a solid dot, and the shading extends indefinitely to the left.

Given a regular decagon, find the measures of the angles formed by (

Sonja [21]

A decagon has 10 sides (think decade and decathlon). From the center of the decagon we draw the radii and in doing so we take the area of the decagon and divide it into 10 congruent Triangles.

The angles around the center add up to 360 because they form a circle and since there are 10, they each measure 36 degrees. So the answer to the first part (the angle between the radii) is 36 degrees.

Each of these triangles has two equal sides (both radii) so is Isosceles. That means that the base angles are congruent. So the two angles that are left in each triangle must measure the same. Since the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees, we know that the two remaining angles are together equal to 180-36=144 degrees. Since they are equal in measure they each measure 72 degrees.

Thus the answer to the second part, trhe measure of the angle between a radius and the side of the polygon is 72 degrees.

Answer:

Haha proofs are an interesting thing. Usually, nothing is to scale, which is why you can't measure anything. They are pretty annoying, but it helps to know why certain things are the way that they are and develop justification skills for higher level math.

Sorry to discourage you, but you're going to see "Justify" quite a lot in calculus and beyond which is basically a more informal version of a proof

you can never escape it tbh lol

Answers:

Part a) $\bf{\sqrt{x^2+(x^2-3)^2}$
Part b) 3
Part c) 2.24
Part d) 1.58

============================================================

Work Shown:

Part (a)

The origin is the point (0,0) which we'll make the first point, so let (x1,y1) = (0,0)

The other point is of the form (x,y) where y = x^2-3. So the point can be stated as (x2,y2) = (x,y). We'll replace y with x^2-3

We apply the distance formula to say...

$d = \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-x)^2+(0-y)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{(0-x)^2+(-y)^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}\\\\d = \sqrt{x^2 + (x^2-3)^2}\\\\$

We could expand things out and combine like terms, but that's just extra unneeded work in my opinion.

Saying $d = \sqrt{x^2 + (x^2-3)^2}$ is the same as writing d = sqrt(x^2-(x^2-3)^2)

-------------------------------------------

Part (b)

Plug in x = 0 and you should find the following

$d(x) = \sqrt{x^2 + (x^2-3)^2}\\\\d(0) = \sqrt{0^2 + (0^2-3)^2}\\\\d(0) = \sqrt{(-3)^2}\\\\d(0) = \sqrt{9}\\\\d(0) = 3\\\\$

This says that the point (x,y) = (0,3) is 3 units away from the origin (0,0).

-------------------------------------------

Part (c)

Repeat for x = 1

$d(x) = \sqrt{x^2 + (x^2-3)^2}\\\\d(1) = \sqrt{1^2 + (1^2-3)^2}\\\\d(1) = \sqrt{1 + (1-3)^2}\\\\d(1) = \sqrt{1 + (-2)^2}\\\\d(1) = \sqrt{1 + 4}\\\\d(1) = \sqrt{5}\\\\d(1) \approx 2.23606797749979\\\\d(1) \approx 2.24\\\\$

-------------------------------------------

Part (d)

Graph the d(x) function found back in part (a)

Use the minimum function on your graphing calculator to find the lowest point such that x > 0.

See the diagram below. I used GeoGebra to make the graph. Desmos probably has a similar feature (but I'm not entirely sure). If you have a TI83 or TI84, then your calculator has the minimum function feature.

The red point of this diagram is what we're after. That point is approximately (1.58, 1.66)

This means the smallest d can get is d = 1.66 and it happens when x = 1.58 approximately.
