Answer:

$\sqrt{96}$ = 9.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : $\sqrt{96}$ .

To find : Which is the best estimate.

Solution : We have given that

$\sqrt{96}$ .

On solving

$\sqrt{96}$ = 9.79

For nearest hundredth

$\sqrt{96}$ = 9.8

Therefore, $\sqrt{96}$ = 9.8.

The graph of g(x) is obtained by reflecting the graph of f(x)=2|x| over the x-axis.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: Choice C)
g(x) = -|2x|

You get this answer by simply sticking a negative out front of the original function. In other words, g(x) = -f(x) or more technically, g(x) = -1*f(x).

The negative will flip every y coordinate from positive to negative (or vice versa)

You'll also use the idea that |2x| = 2|x|. The two can be pulled out since we can say |x*y| = |x|*|y|
So |2*x| = |2|*|x| = 2|x|

Writing an equation of a probably given the vertex and focus

White raven [17]

The equation of the vertical parabola in vertex form is written as

$y=\frac{1}{4p}(x-h)^2+k$

Where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and p is the focal distance.

The directrix of a parabola is a line which every point of the parabola is equally distant to this line and the focus of the parabola. The vertex is located between the focus and the directrix, therefore, the distance between the y-coordinate of the vertex and the directrix represents the focal distance.

$p=1-6=-5$

Using this value for p and (3, 1) as the vertex, we have our equation

$y=-\frac{1}{20}(x-3)^2+1$

A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet and an area of at least 8000 square feet. Describe the possible leng

tangare [24]

Answer:

The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of rectangular plot and y be the breadth of rectangular plot

A rectangular parking lot must have a perimeter of 440 feet

Perimeter of rectangular plot =2(l+b)=2(x+y)=440

2(x+y)=440

x+y=220

y=220-x

We are also given that an area of at least 8000 square feet.

So, $xy \leq 8000$

So, $x(220-x) \leq 8000$

$220x-x^2 \leq 8000$

So, $220x-x^2 = 8000\\-x^2+220x-8000=0$

General quadratic equation : $ax^2+bx+c=0$

Formula : $x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-220 \pm \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)}\\x=\frac{-220 + \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)} , \frac{-220 - \sqrt{220^2-4(-1)(-8000)}}{2(-1)}\\x=45.96,174.031$

So, The possible parking lengths are 45.96 feet and 174.031 feet

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) (10*0.5)+(-6*-3)

2) (5)+(18) (The 18 isn't negative because of the rule that states "A negative and a negative will become positive"

3) 5+18=23
