Answer:

 x = ⁶/₅  

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{array}{rcll}\dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{1}{2} & = &\dfrac{1}{x} & \\\\2x + 3x & = & 6 & \text{Multiplied all terms by LCM of denominators (6x)}\\5x & = & 6 & \text{Simplified left-hand side}\\x & = & \mathbf{\dfrac{6}{5}} & \text{Divided each side by 5}\\\end{array}

If f(x)=2x^4-3x^3+2x^2+x-3, explain how you know that the equation f(x)=0 has at least one real root between x=1 and x=2
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

by theorem :

f continu in [1 , 2]

f(1)×f(2) < 0 because : f(1) = -1 and f(2) = 15

so the equation f(x)=0 has at least one real root between x=1 and x=2

so :

Elena is trying to figure out how many movies she can download to her hard drive. The hard drive is supposed to hold 500 gigabyt
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Maximum capacity of hard drive = 500 GB

Space used up = 58 GB

Size per movie = 8GB

Number of movies = x

1)

[(Number of movies * size per movie) + used up space] should be less than or equal to the maximum capacity to f the drive.

From Elena's inequality, the total space taken up by movies + used up space is greater than total capacity of hard drive.

That is ;

[(8x + 58 ≤ 500

8x ≤ 500 - 58

8x ≤ 442

x ≤ 442 / 8

x ≤ 55.25

The maximum number of movies Elena can download is 55

A scientist measures the angle x and the distance y between the Earth and the Sun. Using complete sentences, explain how the sci
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The scientist can use only the angle x and the distance y to calculate the distance between the Earth and the Sun using the cosine function.Step-by-step explanation:

The cosine of an angle is equal to the ratio of the length of the adjacent side and the length of the hypotenuse. In equation form:

cos x = BC / y

Solving for BC

BC = y cos x

BC is the distance between the Earth and the sun
