Answer:

The required solution for x is $x=-\frac{4}{k}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation $kx+8=4$

To find : Solve the given equation for x?

Solution :

Step 1- Write the equation,

$kx+8=4$

Step 2 - Subtract 8 both side,

$kx+8-8=4-8$

$kx=-4$

Step 3- divide both side by k,

$\frac{kx}{k}=\frac{-4}{k}$

$x=-\frac{4}{k}$

Therefore, The required solution for x is $x=-\frac{4}{k}$

Find the absolute maximum and minimum values of the following function on the given interval. If there are multiple points in a

Bond [772]

$f(x)=3\sin x+3\cos x\implies f'(x)=3\cos x-3\sin x$

$f$ has critical points where $f'=0$ :

$3\cos x-3\sin x=0\implies\cos x=\sin x\implies\tan x=1\implies x=\pm\dfrac\pi4+2n\pi$

where $n$ is any integer. We get solutions in the interval $\left[0,\frac\pi3\right]$ for $n=0$ , for which $x=\frac\pi4$ .

At this critical point, we have $f\left(\frac\pi4\right)=3\sqrt2\approx4.243$ .

At the endpoints of the given interval, we have $f(0)=3$ and $f\left(\frac\pi3\right)=\frac{3+3\sqrt3}2\approx4.098$ .

So we have the extreme values

$\max\limits_{x\in\left[0,\frac\pi3\right]}f=3\sqrt2$

$\min\limits_{x\in\left[0,\frac\pi3\right]}f=3$

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 10cm long. The longer leg is 2cm longer than the shorter leg. Find the side lengths of the

Crazy boy [7]

We need Pythagoras theorem here
a^2+b^2 = c^2
a, b = legs of a right-triangle
c = length of hypotenuse

Let S=shorter leg, in cm, then longer leg=S+2 cm
use Pythagoras theorem
S^2+(S+2)^2 = (10 cm)^2
expand (S+2)^2
S^2 + S^2+4S+4 = 100 cm^2 [collect terms and isolate]
2S^2+4S = 100-4 = 96 cm^2
simplify and form standard form of quadratic
S^2+2S-48=0
Solve by factoring
(S+8)(S-6) = 0 means (S+8)=0, S=-8
or (S-6)=0, S=6
Reject nengative root, so
Shorter leg = 6 cm
Longer leg = 6+2 cm = 8 cm
Hypotenuse (given) = 10 cm

Identify the congruent triangles in the figure.

Komok [63]

Answer:

The answer would be HFG = KIJ (A)

If we know that the opposite and the adjacent side of the triangle are congruent, then the hypotenuse is congruent too. Therefor, A is correct as we know the opposite side and the adjacent side are congruent.
