Solve x (give answer as fractions or integers). 2^x =1/2​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Rudik [331]3 years ago

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

When an exponent is negative, you have to move it to the denominator (or to the numerator if it's already on the denominator). Since the answer is \frac{1}{2}, you know that the 2 has been raised to the power of 1 (any number to the power of 1 is the same number), so you just make it negative. Hope that helps!

The altitude of a triangle is 1cm shorter than the base. If the area of the triangle is 15cm2, calculate the altitude.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that the altitude of this triangle is 1cm shorter than the base

  • Let H be our altitude and B our base and A the area of the triangle
  • A= (B*H)/2 ⇒ 15=(B*H)/2
  • H is 1cm shorter than B ⇒ B=H+1
  • H*(H+1)/2=15 ⇒ H*(H+1)=30⇒ H²+H=30⇒H²+H-30+0

that's a quadratic equation . Let's calculate the dicriminant .

Let Δ be the dicriminant

  • a=1
  • b=1
  • c= -30
  • Δ=b²-4*a*c = 1²-4*1*(-30)=1+4*30=121≥0
  • Δ≥0⇔ that we have two solutions x and y
  • x= (-1-\sqrt{121})/2= (-1-11)/2= -6
  • y= (-1+\sqrt{121})/2= 10/2 = 5

We have a negative value and a positive one

The altitude is a distance so it can't be negative

H= 5cm

A cylinder-shaped drainage pipe 66 in. long measures 25.12 in. around.
Darina [25.2K]
V=hpir^2

tricky, they didn't give us radius
they just gave circiufmerece

c=2pir
25.12=2pir
divide by 2 both sides
12.56=pir
divide by 3.14 both sides
4=r

subsitutet

v=hpir^2
v=66pi4^2
v=66pi16
v=1056pi
v=3315.84 cubic inches

The roots of $3x^2 - 4x + 15 = 0$ are the same as the roots of $x^2 + bx + c = 0,$ for some constants $b$ and $c.$ Find the orde
Akimi4 [234]

we are given

quadratic equation as

3x^2-4x+15=0

now, we can find b and c from

x^2+bx+c=0

we can see that coefficient of x^2 is 1

so, we will have to make coefficient x^2 as 1

so, we divide both sides by 3

3x^2-4x+15=0

\frac{3x^2-4x+15}{3}= \frac{0}{3}

\frac{3x^2}{3}-\frac{4x}{3}+\frac{15}{3}= \frac{0}{3}

now, we can simplify it

x^2-\frac{4}{3}x+5= 0

now, we can compare it with

x^2+bx+c=0

we get

b=-\frac{4}{3}

c=5

so, we get order pair as

(b,c)=(-\frac{4}{3} , 5)..............Answer
