Answer:

All real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute the -4 on the left side

2x-4(x+2)=-2x-8

2x-4*x+-4*2=-2x-8

2x-4x-8= -2x-8

Combine like terms on the left side

-2x -8 = -2x -8

Since the two sides are equal, all real numbers are solutions

Hope this helps! :)

Find the height of the giraffe in the diagram. Show your work below.

dlinn [17]

The distance from the person to the mirror is 5 ft. The distance from the mirror to the giraffe is 15 ft.

15/5 = 3

Multiply the height of the person by 3:

5 ft = 60 inches 60+3 = 63 inches

63 x 3 = 189 inches

189/12 = 15.75 ft = 15 feet 9 inches

The giraffe is 15 ft 9 inches tall

Find the arc length of the given curve between the specified points. x = y^4/16 + 1/2y^2 from (9/16), 1) to (9/8, 2).

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The arc length is $\dfrac{21}{16}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The given curve between the specified points is

$x=\dfrac{y^4}{16}+\dfrac{1}{2y^2}$

The points from $(\dfrac{9}{16},1)$ to $(\dfrac{9}{8},2)$

We need to calculate the value of $\dfrac{dx}{dy}$

Using given equation

$x=\dfrac{y^4}{16}+\dfrac{1}{2y^2}$

On differentiating w.r.to y

$\dfrac{dx}{dy}=\dfrac{d}{dy}(\dfrac{y^2}{16}+\dfrac{1}{2y^2})$

$\dfrac{dx}{dy}=\dfrac{1}{16}\dfrac{d}{dy}(y^4)+\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{d}{dy}(y^{-2})$

$\dfrac{dx}{dy}=\dfrac{1}{16}(4y^{3})+\dfrac{1}{2}(-2y^{-3})$

$\dfrac{dx}{dy}=\dfrac{y^3}{4}-y^{-3}$

We need to calculate the arc length

Using formula of arc length

$L=\int_{a}^{b}{\sqrt{1+(\dfrac{dx}{dy})^2}dy}$

Put the value into the formula

$L=\int_{1}^{2}{\sqrt{1+(\dfrac{y^3}{4}-y^{-3})^2}dy}$

$L=\int_{1}^{2}{\sqrt{1+(\dfrac{y^3}{4})^2+(y^{-3})^2-2\times\dfrac{y^3}{4}\times y^{-3}}dy}$

$L=\int_{1}^{2}{\sqrt{1+(\dfrac{y^3}{4})^2+(y^{-3})^2-\dfrac{1}{2}}dy}$

$L=\int_{1}^{2}{\sqrt{(\dfrac{y^3}{4})^2+(y^{-3})^2+\dfrac{1}{2}}dy}$

$L=\int_{1}^{2}{\sqrt{(\dfrac{y^3}{4}+y^{-3})^2}dy}$

$L= \int_{1}^{2}{(\dfrac{y^3}{4}+y^{-3})dy}$

$L=(\dfrac{y^{3+1}}{4\times4}+\dfrac{y^{-3+1}}{-3+1})_{1}^{2}$

$L=(\dfrac{y^4}{16}+\dfrac{y^{-2}}{-2})_{1}^{2}$

Put the limits

$L=(\dfrac{2^4}{16}+\dfrac{2^{-2}}{-2}-\dfrac{1^4}{16}-\dfrac{(1)^{-2}}{-2})$

$L=\dfrac{21}{16}$

Hence, The arc length is $\dfrac{21}{16}$
