In the right triangle shown Ac=BC and AB=6 to the square root of 3, how long are each of the legs

Mathematics

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

I will just assume that you made a typo when typing the question when saying AB is 6√3. Here is the solution if AB = 6√2.

Since it is given that ABC is a right triangle and x labels each of the legs, the triangle is a right isoceles triangle.

Now we can use the right isoceles triangle theorem to solve the problem. This theorem states that if a leg is "x" in a right isoceles triangle, then the hypotenuse is equal to x√2.

Here, the hypotenuse is equal to 6√2. To figure out the legs, you need to solve the equation 6√2 = x√2. It is solved here:

6√2 = x√2 (Divide by √2)

x = 6

The length of the legs are 6 units.

Which of the following lists of ordered pairs is a function?
Elza [17]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

to be a function you cannot have different y values for the same x, in B for example when x = 3 you have two different values for y (3,7) and (3,8)

D is the only choice where each value of x only has one value for y

These are the cost and revenue functions for a line of trumpets sold at a music store:
Maslowich

Answer:

168 trumpets for $1702

Step-by-step explanation:

Profit is the measure to be maximized.  We are given revenue and cost relationships as a function of units, x (trumpets).  Profit is the difference:

Profit = Revenue[R(x)] - Cost[C(x)]

Profit = (76x – 0.25x^2) - (-7.75x + 5,312.5)

Profit = 76x - 0.25x^2 + 7.75x - 5,312.5

Profit = 76x - 0.25x^2 + 7.75x - 5,312.5

Profit = - 0.25x^2 + 83.75x - 5312.5

At this point we can find the trumpets needed for maximum profit by either of two approaches:  algebraic and graphing.  I'll do both.

<u>Mathematically</u>

The first derivative will give us the slope of this function for any value of x.  The maximum will have a slope of zero (the curve changes direction at that point).  Take the first derivative and set that equal to 0 and solve for x.

First derivative:

d(Profit)/dx = - 2(0.25x) + 83.75

d(Profit)/dx = - 0.50x + 83.75

0 = - 0.50x + 83.75

0.50x = 83.75

x = 167.5 trumpets

<u>Graphically</u>

Plot the profit function and look for the maximum.  The graph is attached.  The maximum is 167.5 trumpets.

Round up or down to get a whole trumpet.  I'll go up:  168 trumpets.

<u>Maximum Profit</u>

Solve the profit equation for 168 trumpets:

Profit = - 0.25x^2 + 83.75x - 5312.5

Profit = - 0.25(168)^2 + 83.75(168) - 5312.5

<u>Profit = $1702</u>

What is the quotient when x^3 -5x^2 + 3x -8 is divided by x-3 ?
Ivanshal [37]

For this case we have that the parts of a division are:

Dividend, divisor, quotient and remainder.

To make the division of polynomials, we must build a quotient that when multiplied by the divisor (and when the sign is changed), eliminate the terms of the dividend until reaching the remainder of the division.

It must be fulfilled that:

Dividend = Quotient * Divider + Remainder

Then, if we look at the attached figure, the quotient is:

x ^ 2-2x-3

Answer:

x ^ 2-2x-3
