Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

First u minus (because of these () ) witch is 3 and $\frac{5}{3}$ is a fraction so u do 3× $\frac{5}{3}$ (u see that its not a ÷ sign because its a fraction) witch equals to 5

Which statements about the graph of the function f(x) = -x2 - 4x + 2 are true? Select three options.

Nady [450]

Answer:

Domain is all real numbers.

The range is $\{y|y\le 6\}$

The function is increasing over $(-\infty,-2)$ .

The function is decreasing over $(-2,\infty)$

The function has a positive y-intercept.

-----------------This is a guess if I had interpreted your choices correctly:

Second option: The range is $\{y|y\le 6\}$

Third option: The function is increasing over $(-\infty,-2)$ .

Last option: The function has a positive y-intercept.

I can't really read some of your choices. So you can read my above and determine which is false. If you have a question about any of what I said above please let me know.

Note: I guess those 0's are suppose to be infinities? I hopefully your function is $f(x)=-x^2-4x+2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x)=-x^2-4x+2$ is a polynomial function which mean it has domain of all real numbers. All this sentence is really saying is that there exists a number for any value you input into $-x^2-4x+2$ .

Now since the is a quadratic then it is a parabola. We know it is a quadratic because it is comparable to $ax^2+bx+c$ , $a \neq 0$ .

This means the graph sort of looks like a U or an upside down U.

It is U, when $a>0$ .

It is upside down U, when $a$ .

So here we have $a=-1$ so $a$ which means the parabola is an upside down U.

Let's look at the range. We know the vertex is either the highest point (if $a$ ) or the lowest point (if $a>0$ ).

The vertex here will be the highest point, again since $a$ .

The vertex's x-coordinate can be found by evaluating $\frac{-b}{2a}$ :

$\frac{-(-4)}{2(-1)}=\frac{4}{-2}=-2$ .

So the y-coordinate can be found by evaluate $-x^2-4x+2$ for $x=-2$ :

$-(-2)^2-4(-2)+2$

$-(4)+8+2$

$4+2$

$6$

So the highest y-coordinate is 6. The range is therefore $(-\infty,6]$ .

If you picture the upside down U in your mind and you know the graph is symmetrical about x=-2.

Then you know the parabola is increasing on $(-\infty,-2)$ and decreasing on $(-2,\infty)$ .

So let's look at the intevals they have:

So on $(-\infty,-2)$ the function is increasing.

Looking on $(-4,\infty)$ the function is increasing on (-4,-2) but decreasing on the rest of that given interval.

The function's y-intercept can be found by putting 0 in for $x$ :

$-(0)^2-4(0)+2$

$-0-0+2$

$0+2$

$2$

The y-intercept is positive since 2>0.

If the diagonal of a square is approximately 12.73, what is the length of its sides?

Alja [10]

Answer:

The length of the sides of the square is 9.0015

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The diagonal of a square = 12.73

Required

The length of its side

Let the length and the diagonal of the square be represented by L and D, respectively.

So that

D = 12.73

The relationship between the diagonal and the length of a square is given by the Pythagoras theorem as follows:

$D^{2} = L^{2} + L^{2}$

Solving further, we have

$D^{2} = 2L^{2}$

Divide both sides by 2

$\frac{D^{2}}{2} = \frac{2L^{2}}{2}$

$\frac{D^{2}}{2} = L^2$

Take Square root of both sides

$\sqrt{\frac{D^{2}}{2}} = \sqrt{L^2}$

$\sqrt{\frac{D^{2}}{2}} = L$

Reorder

$L = \sqrt{\frac{D^{2}}{2}}$

Now, the value of L can be calculated by substituting 12.73 for D

$L = \sqrt{\frac{12.73^{2}}{2}}$

$L = \sqrt{\frac{162.0529}{2}}$

$L = \sqrt{{81.02645}$

$L = 9.001469325$

$L = 9.0015$ (Approximated)

Hence, the length of the sides of the square is approximately 9.0015
