B. 6 km

You have to draw it so you can better process it. From there it's just the Pythagorean theorum.
a²+b²=c²
6²+b²=10²
(10 is c because it's the hypotenuse)
64+b²=100
100-64=36
√36 = 6

F(x)=(x-6)e^-3x find the interval in which f(x) is increasing, the intervals on which f(x) is decreasing, and the local extrema
Over [174]
\bf f(x)=(x-6)e^{-3x}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=1\cdot e^{-3x}+(x-6)-3e^{-3x}\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=e^{-3x}[1-3(x-6)]
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dy}{dx}=e^{-3x}(19-3x)\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=\cfrac{19-3x}{e^{3x}}

set the derivative to 0, solve for "x" to get any critical points
keep in mind, setting the denominator to 0, also gives us critical points, however, in this case, the denominator will never be 0, so... no critical points from there

there's only 1 critical point anyway, and do a first-derivative test on it, check a number before it and after it, to see what sign the derivative has, and thus, whether the graph is going up or down, to check for any extrema

A sphere has a volume of 457.3 in^3. What is the radius of the sphere?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

\large\boxed{R\approx4.78\ in}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a volume of a sphere:

V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3

R - radius

We have the volume V = 457.3 in³. Substitute:

\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3=457.3\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}\\\\4\pi R^3=1371.9\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\\pi R^3=342.975\qquad\text{divide both sides by}\ \pi\\\\R^3=\dfrac{342.975}{\pi}\qquad/\pi\approx3.14/\\\\R^3\approx\dfrac{342.975}{3.14}\\\\R^3\approx109.2277\to R\approx\sqrt{109.2277}\\\\R\approx4.78\ in

Natasha has four nickels to dimes and 6 quarters in her pocket what is a theological probability that she will randomly select a
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 nickels, 2 dimes, and 6 quarters. That means a total of 12 coins, half of which are quarters.

(realistically, if she wanted to, she could probably get a quarter every time if she felt for the size)

MATH:a basketball team needs 5 players. The team can choose from a group of 7 players. Explain how to find the number of combina
iren2701 [21]
Combination Formula: (n = distinct objects, r = how many you pick) n!/(r!(n-r)!

So n = 7, r = 5

n! = 7! = 5040
R! = 5! = 120
(n-r) = 2! = 2
120*2=240
5040/240 = 21

21 combinations!
