4 0

Answer:

The first question is adding x and y together, before multiplying it by 4.

The second question is 4 multiplies x, then y is added into 4x.

Step-by-step explanation:

4 multiplies the sum of x and y:

4*(x+y)

The sum of [4 multiplies x and y]

4*x+y

15 3/8+756- What is the answer

evablogger [386]

Answer: 771 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

15 3/8+756

we can apply the assosiative propery and do 15+756+3/8

so 15+756= 771

so finally you do 771+3/8=771 3/8

Find an nth-degree polynomial function with real coefficients satisfying the given conditions.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

$\displaystyle f(x) = -2(x-2)(x^2+4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find a third degree polynomial with zeros x = 2 and x = 2i and f(-1) = 30.

First, note that by the Complex Root Theorem, since x = 2i is a root, x = -2i must also be a root.

Hence, we will have the three factors:

$\displaystyle f(x) = a(x-(2))(x-(2i))(x-(-2i))$

Where a is the leading coefficient.

Expand and simplify the second and third factors:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} (x-(2i))(x-(-2i)) &= (x-2i)(x+2i) \\ \\ &= x(x-2i)+2i(x-2i) \\ \\ &= (x^2 - 2ix) + (2ix - 4i^2) \\ \\ &=x^2 + 4\end{aligned}$

Hence:

$\displaystyle f(x) = a(x-2)(x^2+4)$

Since f(-1) = 30:

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned} f(x) &= a(x-2)(x^2+4) \\ \\ (30) &= a((-1)-2)((-1)^2+4) \\ \\ 30 &= -15a \\ \\ a&= -2\end{aligned}$

In conclusion, third degree polynomial function is:

$\displaystyle f(x) = -2(x-2)(x^2+4)$

Pentagon RSTUV is circumscribed about a circle. What is the value of x if RS = 10, ST = 13, TU = 11, UV = 12, and VR = 12?

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x is 7 ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise a fact in the circle

- The two tangents drawn from a point out side the circle are equal

∵ RSTUV is circumscribed about a circle

∴ Each side of the pentagon is a tangent to the circle

- Look to the attached figure to know how we will solve the problem

- Each tangent divided into two parts

# RS = x + y

∵ RS = 8

∴ x + y = 8 ⇒ (1)

# RV = x + n

∵ RV = 12

∴ x + n = 12 ⇒ (2)

- Subtract (2) from (1)

∴ y - n = -4 ⇒ (3)

# ST = y + z

∵ ST = 12

∴ y + z = 12 ⇒ (4)

# TU = z + m

∵ TU = 15

∴ z + m = 15 ⇒ (5)

- Subtract (5) from (4)

∴ y - m = -3 ⇒ (6)

# UV = m + n

∵ UV = 9

∴ m + n = 9 ⇒ (7)

- Add (6) and (7)

∴ y + n = 6 ⇒ (8)

- Lets solve equation (3) and equation (8) to find y

∵ y - n = -4 ⇒ (3)

∵ y + n = 6 ⇒ (8)

- Add (3) and (8)

∴ 2y = 2 ⇒ divide two sises by 2

∴ y = 1

- Lets substitute the value of y in equation (1)

∵ x + y = 8 ⇒ (1)

∵ y = 1

∴ x + 1 = 8 ⇒ subtract (1) from both sides

∴ x = 7

* The value of x is 7

A rectangular prism has a length of 5 1/8 feet, a width of 7 1/2 feet, and a height of 2 feet. What is the volume of the prism?

maksim [4K]

For this case we have that by definition, the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

$V = A_ {b} * h$

Where:

$A_ {b}:$ It is the area of the base

h: It's the height

According to the data we have:

$length = 5 \frac {1} {8} = \frac {8 * 5 + 1} {8} = \frac {41} {8}$

$width = 7 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 7 + 1} {2} = \frac {15} {2}$

Then:

$A_ {b} = \frac {41} {8} * \frac {15} {2} = \frac {615} {16}$

Thus, the volume is:

$V = \frac {615} {16} * 2 = \frac {1230} {16} = 76.875$

Answer:

$76.875 \ ft ^ 3$
