Answer:

The side of first square =14 units

side of second square =4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given two squares,

A square have all its four sides equal and at right angles.

Let the side of first square be 'a'

and the side of second square be 'b'

Given:

$a-b=10$ equation:1

$a+b=18$ equation:2

Solving equation:1

a=10+b equation:3

Putting 'a' in equation:2

$(10+b)+b=18\\\\2b=18-10\\\\2b=8\\\\b=4$

Putting 'b' in equation:3

$a=10+4\\\\a=14$

So, the side of first square is 14 units and

side of second square is 4 units

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 5x + 3y = 7?

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

-5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines are lines which have the exact same slope but different y-intercepts. We can find the slope by converting to slope-intercept form, y=mx+b from standard form.

We convert by using inverse operations to isolate y.

5x+3y=7

5x-5x+3y=7-5x

0x+3y=-5x+7

3y=-5x+7

$\frac{3y}{3} =\frac{-5x+7}{3} \\y=\frac{-5}{3}x+\frac{7}{3}$ .

The slope is -5/3. SInce parallel lines have the same slope, the slope for a parallel line will be -5/3.

Differentiate g using the power rule:

$g'(x) = \dfrac34 x^{\frac34-1} - 2\cdot\dfrac14 x^{\frac14-1}$

$g'(x) = \dfrac34 x^{-\frac14} - \dfrac12 x^{-\frac34}$

$g'(x) = \dfrac14 x^{-\frac34} \left(3 x^{\frac12} - 2\right)$

$g'(x) = \dfrac{3\sqrt x - 2}{4 x^{\frac34}}$

The critical points of g occur where g' is zero or undefined.

We have

$g'(x) = 0 \implies 3\sqrt x - 2 = 0 \implies \sqrt x = \dfrac23 \implies \boxed{x = \dfrac49}$

and the derivative is undefined for

$\dfrac1{g'(x)} = 0 \implies 4x^{\frac34} = 0 \implies \boxed{x=0}$

Which statements are true about the solution of 15 greater-than-or-equal-to 22 + x? Select three options. x greater-than-or-equa

Sidana [21]

Answer:

$x \leq -7$

The graph has a closed circle.

–7 is part of the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$15 \geq 22 + x$

Required

Select 3 options from the given list of options

$15 \geq 22 + x$

Subtract 22 from both sides

$15 - 22 \geq 22 - 22+ x$

$-7 \geq x$

Swap positions of the expression; Note that the inequality sign will change

$x \leq -7$

This means <em>x less-than-or-equal-to negative 7</em>

There are two options left to select;

The inequality sign in $x \leq -7$ implies that the graph has a close circle.

Inequality signs such as $\leq$ and $\geq$ signifies a close circle

There is only one option left to select;

Lastly;

Split the expression $x \leq -7$ into two

We have:

$x < -7$ or $x = -7$

Because $x = 7$ ,

Then, -7 is also a part of the solution

A refillable muy costa $12. Each timé you fill the coffee mug up it costs $2.20. If penelope bought the mug, how many refills ca

RSB [31]

The mug cost $12 as it is, so first you subtract 12 from 34, which is 22. From there, you divide 22 by 2.20, which would be 10. Therefore, she can get a mug and 10 refills for $34.
