Answer:

= -√6

Step-by-step explanation:

1) collect like terms by subtracting coefficients:

3√6 - 4√6

(3-4)√6

2) calculate (3-4):

(3-4)√6

-1√6

3) the coefficient of -1 does not have to be written, but the negative sign remains:

-1√6

-√6

so therefore:

-√6 is your answer

Jason and Alison are hiking in the woods when they spot a rare owl in a tree. Jason stops and measures an angle of elevation of

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

$Owl= 67.14ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

See comment for complete question.

The given information is represented in the attached figure.

First convert 22°8'6'' and 30° 40’ 30” to degrees

$22^{\circ} 8'6'' = 22 + \frac{8}{60} + \frac{6}{3600}$

$22^{\circ} 8'6'' = 22.135^{\circ}$

$30^{\circ} 40'30'' = 30 + \frac{40}{60} + \frac{30}{3600}$

$30^{\circ} 40'30'' = 30.675^{\circ}$

Considering Jason's position:

$tan(22.135^{\circ}) = \frac{H}{x + 48}$

Where x = distance between the tree and Alison

Make H the subject

$H = (x + 48)tan(22.135^{\circ})$

Considering Alison's position

$tan(30.675^{\circ}) = \frac{H}{x}$

Make H the subject

$H = xtan(30.675^{\circ})$

$H = H$

$(x + 48)tan(22.135^{\circ}) = xtan(30.675^{\circ})$

$(x + 48) *0.4068 = x* 0.5932$

Open bracket

$x *0.4068 + 48 *0.4068 = 0.5932x$

$0.4068x + 19.5264 = 0.5932x$

Collect Like Terms

$-0.5932x+0.4068x = -19.5264$

$-0.1864x = -19.5264$

$0.1864x = 19.5264$

Make x the subject

$x = \frac{19.5264}{0.1864}$

$x = 104.76$

Substitute 104.76 for x in $H = xtan(30.675^{\circ})$

$H = 104.76 * tan(30.675^{\circ})$

$H = 104.76 * 0.5932$

$H = 62.14$

The above represents the height of the tree.

The height of the owl is:

$Owl= H + 5$

$Owl= 62.14 + 5$

$Owl= 67.14ft$

Answer:

This equation has No Solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is parrel because it has the same x. When equations have the same x it is always parrel or it always has no solutions.

I hope it helps! Have a great day!

The total cost (in hundreds of dollars) to produce x units of a product is c(x) = (3x-2) / (8x+1), find the average cost for eac

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

a) $\frac{74}{10025}$

b) $\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

c) $\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For total cost function $c(x)$ , average cost is given by $\frac{c(x)}{x}$ i.e., total cost divided by number of units produced.

Marginal average cost function refers to derivative of the average cost function i.e., $\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'$

Given: $c(x)=\frac{3x-2}{8x+1}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

At x = 50 units,

$\frac{c(50)}{50}=\frac{150-2}{50(400+1)}=\frac{148}{50(401)}=\frac{74}{10025}$

Average cost = $\frac{c(x)}{x}=\frac{3x-2}{x(8x+1)}$

Marginal average cost:

Differentiate average cost with respect to $x$

Take $f=3x-2\,,\,g=8x^2+x$

using quotient rule, $\left ( \frac{f}{g} \right )'=\frac{f'g-fg'}{g^2}$

Therefore,

$\left ( \frac{c(x)}{x} \right )'=\left ( \frac{3x-2}{8x^2+x} \right )'\\=\left ( \frac{3(8x^2+x)-(16x+1)(3x-2)}{(8x^2+x)^2} \right )\\=\frac{24x^2+3x-48x^2-3x+32x+2}{(8x^2+x)^2}\\=\frac{-24x^2+32x-2}{(8x^2+x)^2}$
