It is true that To "Derive" means to get an equation from a specific information.

<u>Explanation:</u>

If we have an equation, we can easily answer various questions. The equation is derived by the data given, observations, results and assumptions. We also need to consider the law and theories while deriving an equation. While deriving an equation, the dependent and independent variables are arranged accordingly.

<u>Example</u> - To derive the formula of a quadratic equation.

  • To derive something that is not an equation means to come to a conclusion from the results of the data obtained.

Provide the value of k: <br> (2x-1)(kx+1)=6x^2-x-1
guapka [62]

Answer:

k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the left side and compare the coefficients of like terms on both sides.

(2x - 1)(kx + 1) ← expand using FOIL

= 2kx² + 2x - kx - 1

Compare the coefficients of the x² term on both sides

2k = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

k = 3

between 1995 and 2006, the population of samburg, usa(in thousands) can be modeled by f(x) = 0.35x(squared) - 2.1x+15.8 where x=

\bf f(x)=0.35x^2-2.1x+15.8\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;x=\textit{year since 1995}\\&#10;f(x)=\textit{population amount}&#10;\end{cases}

the equation is a quadratic one, and it has a positive coefficient on the leading term, meaning, is opening upwards, so it has a "burrow" for the vertex.

the minimum or lowest point for a quadratic opening upwards is, well, the vertex point :),   the "x" value is the year, the "y" or f(x) value is the population, we're asked for the year, or the x-coordinate of the vertex

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

C. n^{2}-6n+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle =l x w

A=(n-5)(n-1)

Use distributive property

n^{2}-n-5n+5

Combine like terms

n^{2}-6n+5

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Let x = the number of nonzero digits in a randomly selected zip code. what are the possible values of x? (note: u.s. domestic zip codes have exactly five digits with at least two nonzero digits.)

Solution: The possible values of x are 2, 3, 4, 5. Hence the option 2,3,4,5 is correct.

Explanation:

We are given that U.S domestic zip-code consists of 5 digits and there zip-codes contains at least 2 non-zero digits. It means we can not see a zip-code with five zero's and a zip-code with four zero's.

Therefore, we can have zip-code containing 2 non-zero digits, 3 non-zero digits, 4 non-zero digits and 5 non-zero digits. Hence the possible values of x are 2,3,4,5
