Mathematics
1 answer:
mojhsa [17]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

B.{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

2-8x-42=0

(÷2), we get,

1-4x-21=0

-4x-20=0

-4x=20

x=20÷(-4)

x=(-5)

since the question asks for a positive set, the answer is [x=5]

Find the base of a triangles in
Alexus [3.1K]

The base of triangle is 24 inches whose area is 2.75 sq. feet

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, area of a triangle is 2.75 square feet and its height is 33 inches.

We have to find its base length in inches.

So let us convert area units from feet to inches.

Area = 2.75 square feet = 2.75 \times ft \times ft

= 2.75 \times 12 inches \times 12 inches

[since 1 foot = 12 inches ]

= 2.75 x 144 \times in^2

Area = = 396 in^2

Area of triangle is given as:

\text {area}=\frac{1}{2} \times \text { base } \times \text { height }

\begin{array}{l}{396= \frac{1}{2} \times \text { base } \times 33} \\\\ {2 \times 396=\text { base } \times 33} \\\\ {792=\text { base } \times 33} \\\\ {\text { Base }=\frac{792}{33}=24}\end{array}

Hence, the base of the triangle is 24 inches

Identify the error or errors in this argument that supposedly shows that if ∃xp (x) ∧ ∃xq(x) is true then ∃x(p (x) ∧ q(x)) is tr
Ymorist [56]

The mistake lies in steps 3 and 5.

In fact, you know that there exists some element that satisfies p(x), and some element that satisfies q(x), but you can't assume that the same element satisfies p(x) and q(x) at the same time.

So, you are only allowed to say

p(c) existential instantiation from (2)

q(d) existential instantiation from (4)

and so you can't do the conjunction in step 6 anymore.


Here's an example: if you follow this logic, you would say something like:

"There exists a person who is born in Italy and there exists a person who is born in the USA. Therefore, there exists a person who is born in both Italy and the USA"

which is clearly false: altought there exists a person for each proposition, they are not the same person.


This is even easier if q is the negation of p:

"There exists a number greater than 10, and there exists a number lesser than 10. Therefore, there exists a number that is greater than and lesser than 10 at the same time"

which is clearly absurd
