In Exercises 10 and 11, points B and D are points of tangency. Find the value(s) of x.<br>​
Lemur [1.5K]

In both cases,

AB^2=AD^2

(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)

So we have

10.

(4x+7)^2=(6x-3)^2

16x^2+56x+49=36x^2-36x+9

20x^2-92x-40=0

5x^2-23x-10=0

(5x+2)(x-5)=0\implies\boxed{x=5}

(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)

11.

(4x^2-18x-10)^2=(x^2+x+4)^2

16x^4-144x^3+244x^2+360x+100=x^4+2x^3+9x^2+8x+16

15x^4-146x^3+235x^2+352x+84=0

(x-7)(3x+2)(5x^2-17x-6)=0\implies\boxed{x=-\dfrac23\text{ or }x=7}

(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)

Molly Invests $8,600 into her son's college fund, which earns 3% annual interest
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

n= 13.8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First, we need to determine the daily interest rate:</u>

Daily interest rate= 0.03 / 365

Daily interest rate= 0.000082

<u>Now, using the following formula we can determine the number of days and years:</u>

n= ln(FV/PV) / ln(1+i)  

n= ln(13,000 / 8,600) / ln(1.000082)

n= 5,039 days

<u>In years:</u>

n= 5,039/365

n= 13.8 years

On two investments totaling $11,500, Peter lost 3% on one and earned 4% on the other. If his net annual receipts were $⁢201, how
BlackZzzverrR [31]
Total amount of money invested - $11500
X +Y = $11500. ----------(1)
Total yearly interest for thetwo a/c is - $201
-0.03X + 0.04Y = $201
Form (1)
X = 11500 - Y
Substitute for X
-0.03(11500 - Y) + 0.04 Y = $201
-345 + 0.03Y + 0.04Y =201
0.07Y = 546
Y = 7800 at 4 %
Calculate X
X = 11500 - Y
= 11500 - 7800
=3700 at - 3%
Check
-0.03×3700 + 0.04 × 7800 = $201
-111 + 312 = $201
$201 = $201

Let f(x) and g(x) be polynomials as shown below. Which of the following is true about f(x) and g(x)? f(x) and g(x) are not close
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

  f(x) and g(x) are closed under multiplication because when multiplied, the result will be a polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of all polynomials is <em>closed</em> under addition, subtraction, and <em>multiplication</em>, because performing any of these operations on a pair of polynomials will give a polynomial result.

__

<em>Comment on the question</em>

The wording is a bit strange, because f(x) and g(x) are elements of a set (of polynomials), so cannot be said to be "closed." "Closed" is a property of a set with respect to some function, it is not a property of an element of the set.
