Since S is between R and T, then we know
RS + ST = RT
(x+3) + (5x) = 57
6x+3 = 57
6x = 54
X = 9

The vertex form of the equation of a parabola is y=2(x+4)^2-7. What is the standard form of the equation.

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the standard form of the equation of the parabola y=2(x+4)^2-7, first perform the indicated operations:

y = 2[x^2 + 8x + 16 - 7], or

y = 2[x^2 + 8x + 9],

or y = 2x^2 + 16x + 18

None of the given possible answers match. The fourth one, D, is closest to the above result, differing only in the constant term (25 versus 18).

Which function is increasing?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=6^x has a full, positive number that is greater than one. The others are all fractions, and either are almost straight or decrease. If you graph all four, you can also see that f(x)=6^x is the only function that is increasing.

Hope this helped.

What is the result? ∫([1/x].dx/x^3) D=[1/2, 1]

OLEGan [10]

$\displaystyle\int_{.5}^1\frac{1}x\frac{dx}{x^3}=\int_{.5}^1\frac{dx}{x^4}=\left[\frac{-1}{3x^3}\right]_{.5}^1=\frac{7}3$
