Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problems

# Question 1

∵ The length of the three sides of a quadrilateral are

- Side 1: 4y + 2y² - 3

- Side 2: -4 + 2y² + 2y

- Side 3: 4y² - 3 + 2y

- The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 22y³ + 10y² + 10y − 17

* Part A:

- To find the total length of sides 1, 2, and 3 of the quadrilateral

add them

∴ s1 + s2 + s3 = (4y + 2y² - 3) + (-4 + 2y² + 2y) + (4y² - 3 + 2y)

- Collect the like terms

∴ S1 + S2 + S3 = (2y² + 2y² + 4y²) + (4y + 2y + 2y) + (-3 + -4 + -3)

∴ S1 + S2 + S3 = 8y² + 8y + (-10) = 8y² + 8y - 10

* The total length of sides 1, 2, and 3 is (8y² + 8y - 10)

* Part B:

∵ The perimeter of the quadrilateral is the sum of its 4 sides

∴ The length of its fourth side is the difference between its

perimeter and the sum of the other 3 sides

∵ The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 22y³ + 10y² + 10y − 17

∵ The sum of the three sides is (8y² + 8y - 10)

∴ The length of the 4th side = (22y³ + 10y² + 10y − 17) - (8y² + 8y - 10)

- Remember that (-)(+) = (-) and (-)(-) = (+)

∴ S4 = 22y³ + 10y² + 10y - 17 - 8y² - 8y + 10

- Collect the like terms

∴ S4 = (22y³) + (10y² - 8y²) + (10y - 8y) + (-17 + 10)

∴ S4 = 22y³ + 2y² + 2y + (-7) = 22y³ + 2y² + 2y - 7

* The length of the fourth side is 22y³ + 2y² + 2y - 7

* Part C:

- Polynomials will be closed under an operation if the operation

produces another polynomial

∵ In part A there are 3 polynomials add to each other and the answer

is also polynomial

∴ The polynomials are closed under addition

∵ In part B there are 2 polynomial one subtracted from the other and

the answer is also polynomial

∴ The polynomials are closed under subtraction

* Yes the answers for Part A and Part B show that the polynomials

are closed under addition and subtraction

# Question 2

∵ The side of a square measure (2x - 5) units

* Part A:

∵ The are of the square = S × S, where S is the length of its side

∵ S = 2x - 5

∴ The area of the square = (2x - 5) × (2x - 5)

- Multiply the two brackets using the foil method

∵ (2x - 5)(2x - 5) = (2x)(2x) + (2x)(-5) + (-5)(2x) + (-5)(-5)

∴ (2x - 5)(2x - 5) = 4x² + (-10x) + (-10x) + 25

- Add the like terms

∴ (2x - 5)(2x - 5) = 4x² + (-20x) + 25 = 4x² - 20x + 25

∴ The area of the square = 4x² - 20x + 25

* The expression of the area of the square is 4x² - 20x + 25

* Part B:

∵ The greatest power in the expression obtained in Part A is 2

∴ Its degree is second

∵ The expression obtained in part A has three terms

∴ The expression obtained in Part A is trinomial

* The degree and classification of the expression obtained in Part A

are second degree and trinomial

* Part C:

- Polynomials will be closed under an operation if the operation

produces another polynomial

∵ (2x - 5) is polynomial

∵ (4x² - 20x + 25) is polynomial

∴ The product of two polynomials give a polynomial

∴ The polynomials are closed under multiplication

# Question 3

∵ n(t) = 7t, where t represents time in minutes and n represents how

far the oil is spreading

∵ The area of the pattern can be expressed as A(n) = πn²

* Part A:

- To find the area of the circle of spilled oil as a function of time, then

find the composite function A[n(t)]

- That means replace n in A(n) by the function n(t)

∵ n(t) = 7t

∴ A[n(t)] = A(7t)

∵ A(n) = πn²

- Replace n by 7t

∴ A(7t) = π (7t)² = 49 πt²

∴ A[n(t)] = 49 πt²

* The function of the area of the circle of spilled oil is 49 πt²

* Part B:

∵ The area of the circle of spilled oil in t minutes = 49 πt²

- To find the area of the circle of spilled oil after 8 minutes substitute

t by 8

∴ Area of the spilled oil after 8 minutes = 49 π (8)²

∵ π = 3.14

∴ Area of the spilled oil after 8 minutes = 49(3.14)(64) = 9847.04

* The area of the spilled oil after 8 minutes is 9847.04 units²

Jimmy ran 3 miles west from home and then turned north and jogged 4 miles. in a straight line, how far is jimmy from home?

balu736 [363]

If u were to draw this out, u would have the shape of a right triangle....with the legs being 3 miles and 4 miles......and a straight line would be the hypotenuse. So we use the pythagorean theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
3^2 + 4^2 = c^2
9 + 16 = c^2
25 = c^2
sqrt 25 = c
5 = c

so Jimmy is 5 miles from home

10. Determine the open interval(s) on which the function f(x) = 12x - x^3 is increasing.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x\in(-2,\ 2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=12x-x^3$

Calculate the derivative of the function:

$f'(x)=\left(12x-x^3\right)'=(12x)'-\left(x^3\right)'=12-3x^2$

Calculate the zeros of the derivative:

$f'(x)=0\Rightarrow12-3x^2=0\qquad\text{add}\ 3x^2\ \text{to both sides}\\\\3x^2=12\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\x^2=4\to x=\pm\sqrt4\\\\x=\pm2$

Let's check the derivative sign:

$f'(x)>0\iff12-3x^2>0\qquad\text{use the distributive property}\\\\-3(x^2-4)>0\\\\-3(x^2-2^2)>0\qquad\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\-3(x-2)(x+2)>0\\^{\qquad x=2\qquad x=-2$

Sketch a parabola open down

(before the brackets there is the number -3 < 0)

Look at the picture.

Where the derivative is negative, the function decreases.

Where the derivative is positive, the function increases.

Therefore your answer is:

$x\in(-2,\ 2)$

Please help me find domain/ range and equation

hram777 [196]

I’m pretty sure the domain is all real numbers because the arrows are pointing in either direction infinitely so there are infinite values that could be used as the x-value

Math geometry help please show work thanks

<h3>Answer: Tony is correct</h3>

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

Explanation:

There are number of ways to go about this, but let's pick on the sides marked in the diagram below (circled in red and blue). I picked on those sides specifically because they are on either side of the marked angles (A and Q).

They help form the proportion below, in which we'll show later on its a false statement.

AE/PQ = AB/QR

24/(14.5) = 18/(11.5)

24*11.5 = 14.5*18

270 = 261

We arrive at a false statement at the end, so the original proportion is false. Furthermore, it means the figures are <u>not</u> similar.

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

We could try the other way around and try to see if

AE/QR = AB/PQ

is true or not

Let's find out

24/(11.5) = 18/(14.5)

24*14.5 = 11.5*18

348 = 207

We see this is false as well. The gap is even bigger than before, so the first scenario was slightly close to having similar polygons. But neither case works perfectly. So that's why we don't have similar polygons and why Tony is correct. It's not enough to look at the angles only when dealing with polygons that have more than 3 sides. If we were just focused on triangles, then Jacenta would be correct.
