Answer:

option D is correct

The value of x is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function: f(x) = 2(x+10)

if f(x) = 24 then solve for x;

Distributive property of multiplication states that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two numbers, then the first number can be distributed to both of those numbers and multiplied by each of them separately.

i,e  a\cdot(b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c

f(x) = 2(x+10)

Applying distributive property we have;

f(x) = 2\cdot x + 2\cdot 10 = 2x+20

Now, substitute the value of f(x) = 24 to solve for x;

24 = 2x+20

Subtraction property of equality states that you subtract the same number to both sides of an equation.

Subtract 20 to both sides of an equation, we get

24-20 = 2x+20-20

Simplify:

4 = 2x

Division property of equality states that you divide the same number to both sides of an equation.

Divide both sides by 2 we get

\frac{4}{2} = \frac{2x}{2}

Simplify:

x =2

therefore, the value of x is 2.

Given the function of f(x) = 2(x+10), find x if f(x)=24 will be 2. The correct answer will be D. 

The steps to get the answer are;
<span>2(x+10)=24 2x +20=24 -20 -20 2x=4/2 x=2</span>

There is enough fencing to surround the dog's play yard. The yard must have a perimeter of n more than 38 feet. The length of th
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y = length of side parallel to the side with no fence

    x = length of each of the other two sides

Then, y+2x = 64.  So, y = 64-2x

Area = A = xy = x(64-2x)

The graph of the area function is a parabola opening downward with a highest point and with x-intercepts (0,0) and (32,0).

By the symmetry of the parabola, the x-coordinate of the maximum point lies halfway between the x-intercepts.  

So, the area is maximized when x = 16 ft

                                            y = 64 - 2x = 32 ft

Maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

To maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.

For the fixed given perimeter, the maximum area which can be obtained is a square.

So for 3 sides= 64 feet

one side = 64/3

The maximum area is 64/3*64/3 square feet

Conver the equation y=2 to polar form. Then solve the resulting equation for r. <br> Thanks :)
maksim [4K]
This is something to memorize

y = r*sin(theta)

so if y = 2, then 

2 = r*sin(theta)

Divide both sides by sin(theta) to get

r = 2/sin(theta)
r = 2csc(theta)
