Answer:

The answer is option 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to move the unrelated term to the other side :

$x = 2 + \sqrt{x - 2}$

$x - 2 = \sqrt{x - 2}$

Then, you have to get rid of square root by squaring both sides :

${(x - 2)}^{2} = {( \sqrt{x - 2} )}^{2}$

${x}^{2} - 4x + 2 = x - 2$

${x}^{2} - 4x + 4 - x + 2 = 0$

${x}^{2} - 5x + 6 = 0$

Next, you have to solve it :

${x}^{2} - 5x + 6 = 0$

${x}^{2} - 2x - 3x + 6 = 0$

$x(x - 2) - 3(x - 2) = 0$

$(x - 2)(x - 3) = 0$

$x - 2 = 0 \\ x = 2$

$x - 3 = 0 \\ x = 3$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=2+\sqrt{x-2} \\\\x-2=\sqrt{x-2} \\\\(x-2)^2=\pm(x-2) \\\\x^2-4x+4=\pm(x-2) \\\\$

$x^2-5x+6=0$ OR $x^2+3x+2=0$

x=2 and 3

Hope this helps!

Find the length of the following two-dimensional curve. r (t ) = (1/2 t^2, 1/3(2t+1)^3/2) for 0 < t < 16

andrezito [222]

Answer:

r = 144 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The given curve corresponds to a parametric function in which the Cartesian coordinates are written in terms of a parameter "t". In that sense, any change in x can also change in y owing to this direct relationship with "t". To find the length of the curve is useful the following expression;

$r(t)=\int\limits^a_b ({r`)^2 \, dt =\int\limits^b_a \sqrt{((\frac{dx}{dt} )^2 +\frac{dy}{dt} )^2)} dt$

In agreement with the given data from the exercise, the length of the curve is found in between two points, namely 0 < t < 16. In that case a=0 and b=16. The concept of the integral involves the sum of different areas at between the interval points, although this technique is powerful, it would be more convenient to use the integral notation written above.

Substituting the terms of the equation and the derivative of r´, as follows,

$r(t)= \int\limits^b_a \sqrt{((\frac{d((1/2)t^2)}{dt} )^2 +\frac{d((1/3)(2t+1)^{3/2})}{dt} )^2)} dt$

Doing the operations inside of the brackets the derivatives are:

1 ) $(\frac{d((1/2)t^2)}{dt} )^2= t^2$

2) $\frac{(d(1/3)(2t+1)^{3/2})}{dt} )^2=2t+1$

Entering these values of the integral is

$r(t)= \int\limits^{16}_{0} \sqrt{t^2 +2t+1} dt$

It is possible to factorize the quadratic function and the integral can reduced as,

$r(t)= \int\limits^{16}_{0} (t+1) dt= \frac{t^2}{2} + t$

Thus, evaluate from 0 to 16

$\frac{16^2}{2} + 16$

The value is $r= 144 units$

Reason Can you subtract a positive integer from a positive integer

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No matter the situation, when you multiply a negative by a negativeyou get a positive and a positive by a positive you get a positive. but if its two different like a negative and a positive then its NEGITIVE.

let's say you have 23 and you're multiplying by 2.

It's always increasing so it doesnt ever reach the negitive numbers.
