Write a formula for the maximum number of segments determined by n points

jeyben [28]

Let n = the number of points
(x-1) + ... (x-x)

The last term will always be 0, when you reach that, stop.

ex. 1pt: 1-1=0
2pt: (2-1) + (2-2) = 1
3pt: (3-1) + (3-2) + (3-3) = 3

Find the area of the figure to the nearest hundredth.<br><br>

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

51.26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the triangle:

a=1/2 base times height

a=(1/2)(6)(4)

a=12 ft

Now find the area of the circles:

a= pi times radius squared

a= pi times 2.5 squared

a=19.63 ft

19.63 + 12 = 31.63 ft

-(3/4)+1 7/8 divided by 1/2 =n

VashaNatasha [74]

first off, let's convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then proceed, let's notice that by PEMDAS or order of operations, the multiplication is done first, and then any sums.

$\stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{7}{8}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 8+7}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{15}{8}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ -\cfrac{3}{4}~~ + ~~\cfrac{15}{8} \div \cfrac{1}{2}\implies -\cfrac{3}{4}~~ + ~~\cfrac{15}{8} \cdot \cfrac{2}{1}\implies -\cfrac{3}{4}~~ + ~~\cfrac{15}{4} \\\\\\ \cfrac{-3+15}{4}\implies \cfrac{12}{4}\implies 3$

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 5x ^ 2 + 20x between x = 0 and x = 0.5

Vitek1552 [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change on the interval [a, b] is the ratio ...

(f(b) -f(x))/(b -a)

For your function and interval, it is ...

(f(0.5) -f(0))/(0.5 -0)

Since f(0) = 0, this reduces to ...

average rate of change = 2·f(0.5) = 2(5(0.5)² +20(0.5)) = 2(5/4 +10)

average rate of change = 22.5

A rectangle has a height of 6k3 and a width of 2k2 + 4k +5.

Trava [24]

Answer: $12k^5+24k^4+30k^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The height of the rectangle = $6k^3$

The width of the rectangle = $2k^2+4k+5$

Formula : Area = height x width

Therefore , the area of triangle in terms of polynomial will be :

$6k^3\times( 2k^2+4k+5)\\\\= 6k^3(2k^2)+6k^3(4k)+6k^3(5)\ \ [\text{Using Distributive property}]\\\\=12k^{3+2}+24k^{3+1}+30k^3\ \ [\text{Using exponents rule}:\ a^n\times a^m=a^{n+m}]\\\\=12k^5+24k^4+30k^3$

Hence, the area of the entire rectangle = $12k^5+24k^4+30k^3$
