Answer:
5/6 maybe I'm not sure but hey it's worth a shot
Since the equations are for absolute value this means any negative number used the answer would become positive, so to get the lowest value possible x would need to equal 0, which would eliminate the x variable from the equations.
Replace x with 0 and solve:
|5(0)^2 - 16| + |10(0) - 2|
Simplify:
|0 - 16| + |0 - 2|
|-16| + |-2|
Combine:
|-18|
Absolute Value = 18
Okay to find the perpendicular bisector of a segment you first need to find the slope of the reference segment.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) in this case:
m=(-5-1)/(2-4)
m=-6/-2
m=3
Now for the the bisector line to be perpendicular its slope must be the negative reciprocal of the reference segment, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1 in this case:
3m=-1
m=-1/3
So now we know that the slope is -1/3 we need to find the midpoint of the line segment that we are bisecting. The midpoint is simply the average of the coordinates of the endpoints, mathematically:
mp=((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2), in this case:
mp=((4+2)/2, (1-5)/2)
mp=(6/2, -4/2)
mp=(3,-2)
So our bisector must pass through the midpoint, or (3,-2) and have a slope of -1/3 so we can say:
y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept, and given what we know:
-2=(-1/3)3+b
-2=-3/3+b
-2=-1+b
-1=b
So now we have the complete equation of the perpendicular bisector...
y=-x/3-1 or more neatly in my opinion :P
y=(-x-3)/3
<h2> <u>Rectangular</u> <u>Areas</u> <u>and</u> <u>Perimeters</u></h2>
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

In the problem we have these data:
- Perimeter = 6 + 2 (-2x + 20)
We replace the data in the equation of the perimeter:
<h3>6 + 2 (-2x + 20) = 2 (a - 2x + 20)
</h3>
We apply distributive property:
6 - 4x + 40 = 2a - 4x + 40
6 = 2a
6 ÷ 2 = a
3 = a
⇒ Length = 3
The area of the rectangle is given by:

We have these data:
We replace the data in the equation of the area:
<h3>Area = (3) (- 2x + 20)
</h3>
We apply the distributive property and obtain:
Area = -6x + 60
<u>The expression representing the area of the rectangle will be -6x + 60</u>
<h3>I hope I've helped!</h3>
Answer:
$81,000
Step-by-step explanation:
A = Final Payment = ?
P = Principal Amount = $30,000
r = Interest Rate = 8.5%
t = Time = 20 Years
A = P(1 + rt)
A = 30,000(1 + 0.085 x 20)
A = 30,000 + 51000
A = $81,000
Hence, Steph will pay $81,000 altogether.
