What is the value of x, given that OP II NQ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Semenov [28]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Option C. x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

Traingles MOP and MNQ are similar

therefore

The ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional

\frac{MO}{MN}=\frac{MP}{MQ}

substitute the values

\frac{21+7}{21}=\frac{36+x}{36}

28*36=21*(36+x)\\ \\1,008=756+21x\\ \\21x=252\\ \\x=12\ units

Find an expression for a cubic function f if f(4) = 96 and f(-4) = f(0) = f(5) = 0. Part 1 of 4 A cubic function generally has t
Bezzdna [24]

Given a polynomial p(x) and a point x_0, we have that

p(x_0) = 0 \iff (x-x_0) \text{\ divides\ } p(x)

We know that our cubic function is zero at -4, 0 and 5, which means that our polynomial is a multiple of

(x+4)(x)(x-5) = x(x+4)(x-5)

Since this is already a cubic polynomial (it's the product of 3 polynomials with degree one), we can only adjust a multiplicative factor: our function must be

f(x) = ax(x+4)(x-5),\quad a \in \mathbb{R}

To fix the correct value for a, we impose f(4)=96:

f(4) = 4a(4+4)(4-5) = -32a = 96

And so we must impose

-32a=96 \iff a = -\dfrac{96}{32} = -3

So, the function we're looking for is

f(x) = -3x(x+4)(x-5)=-3x^3+3x^2+60x

The archway to the entrance of an art gallery can be model by y= -1/3(x-5)(x+5) where x and y are measured in feet. The x-axis r
NikAS [45]

Answer:

x=5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

At floor level y=0

If the expression is:

0=1/3(x-5)(x+5)\\0=1/3(x^2-25)\\0=1/3x^2-25/3\\25/3=1/3x^2\\25=x^2\\x=5

But, with the negative sign, the answer is x= 5i (where i is imaginary)

Determine if the sequence is arithmetic. If it is, find the term named in the problem.
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

a_{39} <em>= 279</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

a_{n} = a_{1} + (n - 1)d

d = a_{2} - a_{1}

~~~~~~~~~

d = - 17 + 25 = - 9 + 17 = - 1 + 9 = 8

a_{39} = - 25 + 8(39 - 1) = 279

a_{39} <em>= 279</em><em> </em>
