Which three lengths could be the lengths of the sides of a triangle?

Write a cubic function whose graph goes through the points: (-5, 0) (1, 0) (2, -2) (4, 0)

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

f(x) = $\frac{1}{7}(x+5)(x-1)(x-4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the give cubic function is,

f(x) = p(x - a)(x - b)(x - c)

Here, a, b, c and d are the x-intercepts of the given graph.

Since, x-intercepts given in the graph are x = -5, 1 and 4,

Equation of the curve will be,

f(x) = p(x + 5)(x - 1)(x - 4)

Since, the graph of this function passes through (2, -2) also

-2 = p(2 + 5)(2 - 1)(2 - 4)

-2 = -p(14)

p = $\frac{2}{14}$

p = $\frac{1}{7}$

Therefore, equation will be,

f(x) = $\frac{1}{7}(x+5)(x-1)(x-4)$

Answer:

Hypothenus = 22

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, we were told that the triangles are congruent (i.e same size). Thus,

AC = EF

BC = DE

To obtain the length of each Hypothenus, we shall determine the value of y and x. This can be obtained as follow:

For y:

AC = y + 3

EF = 2y + 1

AC = EF

y + 3 = 2y + 1

Collect like terms

3 – 1 = 2y – y

2 = y

y = 2

For x:

BC = 5x + 7

DE = 6x + 2y

y = 2

DE = 6x + 2(2)

DE = 6x + 4

BC = DE

5x + 7 = 6x + 4

Collect like terms

7 – 4 = 6x – 5x

3 = x

x = 3

Finally, we shall determine the length of each Hypothenus. This can be obtained as follow:

Hypothenus = BC

Hypothenus = 5x + 7

x = 3

Hypothenus = 5x + 7

Hypothenus = 5(3) + 7

Hypothenus = 15 + 7

Hypothenus = 22

OR

Hypothenus = DE

DE = 6x + 2y

y = 2

x = 3

Hypothenus = 6(3) + 2(2)

Hypothenus = 18 + 4

Hypothenus = 22

The perimeter of a rectangle is 30 cm and its length is x cm. Find its area in terms of x. step by step explanation.

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle in terms of 'x' = 13x

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 30 cm

Length = x cm

Using the perimeter formula to find the width w.

$P=2(l+w)$

$P = 2l + 2w$

$2w = P-2l$

Dividing both sides by 2

$w\:=\:\frac{P}{2}-2$

as P = 30 cm

$w\:=\:\frac{30}{2}-2$

$w\:=\:15-2$

$w = 13$ cm

Using the formula of the rectangle area

$A = wl$

substitute w = 13 and l = x in the formula

$A=13\times \:x$

$A = 13x$

Therefore, the area of the rectangle in terms of 'x' = 13x

A cone and its dimensions are shown in the diagram. Which measurement is closest to the volume of the cone in cubic inches?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

20 Cubic Inches^3.

Explanation:

The volume of a cone is Pi*R^2*H*1/3

We know the height, but we are given the diameter instead of radius. So divide 5.625 by 2. You get 2.8125.

Plug everything into the formula.

Pi*2.8125^2*7.5*1/3

(The ^2 means squared, or to the second power)

You get a number close to 20. Since we don’t know Pi, and we are not given a substitute for Pi, we make the answer in terms of Pi.

20 Cubic Inches^3.

Also, people who don’t know the answers to questions shouldn’t just put a random answer for the points. It’s unfair.
