Answer:

5.5m^2

the area of just the trench is 5.5 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of trench only is the total area(trench and garden) minus the Area of garden

Area of trench only = total area(trench and garden) - Area of garden

Area = length × breadth

Substituting the given dimensions;

Total area = 3.5 × 3 = 10.5 m^2

Area of garden = 2.5×2 = 5 m^2

Area of trench only = 10.5 m^2 - 5 m^2

Area of trench only = 5.5m^2

the area of just the trench is 5.5 m^2

Find the set of values of k for which the line y=kx-4 intersects the curve y=x²-2x at 2 distinct points?

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

$-6 < k < 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = x^2 - 2x$

$y =kx -4$

Required

Possible values of k

The general quadratic equation is:

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

Subtract $y = x^2 - 2x$ and $y =kx -4$

$y - y = x^2 - 2x - kx +4$

$0 = x^2 - 2x - kx +4$

Factorize:

$0 = x^2 +x(-2 - k) +4$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 +x(-2 - k) +4=0$

Compare the above equation to: $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

$a = 1$

$b= -2-k$

$c =4$

For the equation to have two distinct solution, the following must be true:

$b^2 - 4ac > 0$

So, we have:

$(-2-k)^2 -4*1*4>0$

$(-2-k)^2 -16>0$

Expand

$4 +4k+k^2-16>0$

Rewrite as:

$k^2 + 4k - 16 + 4 >0$

$k^2 + 4k - 12 >0$

Expand

$k^2 + 6k-2k - 12 >0$

Factorize

$k(k + 6)-2(k + 6) >0$

Factor out k + 6

$(k -2)(k + 6) >0$

Split:

$k -2 > 0$ or $k + 6> 0$

So:

$k > 2$ or k $> -6$

To make the above inequality true, we set:

$k < 2$ or $k >-6$

So, the set of values of k is:

$-6 < k < 2$

Anna is in a cave 42 feet below the cave entrance. She descends 10 feet, then ascends 15 feet. Find her new position relative to

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Her new position is 37 feet below the cave entrance

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ The cave entrance is the zero position

∵ Anna is in 42 feet below the cave entrance

→ Below zero means negative

∴ Anna is in -42 feet

∵ She descends 10 feet

→ Descend means negative

∴ She is in -42 + -10 = -52 feet

∵ She ascends 15 feet

→ Ascend means positive

∴ She is in -52 + 15 = -37 feet

→ -37 means she is in below the cave entrance by 37 feet

∴ Her new position is 37 feet below the cave entrance
