Line through (a,b) with slope m is

y - b = m(x -a)

Here that's line through (a,b)=(5/3, -7) with slope m=-3/4

y - -7 = (-3/4) (x - 5/3)

Solve for y,

y + 28/4 = (-3/4) x + 5/4

y = (-3/4) x - 23/4

Look at the choices.

The domain and range of 5x squared plus 10x what is the domain and range of f of x equals 5x squared plus 10x

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Domain: set of all real numbers

Range: $y \geq -5$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the domain and range of the function:

$f(x) =5x^2+10x$

This is a quadratic function, shape of a "U", that's called a parabola.

The domain is the set of x values for which the function is defined.

The range is the set of y values for which the function is defined.

Normally, any parabola in the form $ax^2+bx+c$ has domain as "all real numbers". This is the case for this problem as well, thus,

Domain = set of all real numbers

Now, for the range, we have to look at the minimum value of the function. So, the range would be y values greater than or equal to the minimum number. Lets find the minimum value of this function.

We have to find the value of x for which the minimum occurs by using the formula:

$x=\frac{-b}{2a} =\frac{-10}{2(5)} =-1$

<em><u>Note: value of a is "5" and b is "10"</u></em>

Now, we plug this into the function to find the minimum value:

$f(x)=5x^2+10x\\f(-1)=5(-1)^2 +10(-1)\\f(-1)=-5$

So, the range is set of all real numbers greater than or equal to -5.

If a salesperson sells 3/4 of an acre for $80,000, what was the price per square foot rounded to two decimal spaces?

Julli [10]

Now, recalling that for 1 yard, there are 3 feet, therefore $\bf \begin{array}{ll}
yards&feet\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
1yd&3ft\\
(1yd)^2&(3ft)^2\\
yd^2&3^2ft^2\\
&9ft^2
\end{array}$

and keeping in mind that, there are 4840 yd² in 1 acre, then

$\bf \cfrac{\quad \frac{3}{4}~\underline{acre}\quad }{80000~\$}\cdot \cfrac{4840~\underline{yd^2}}{\underline{acre}}\cdot \cfrac{9~ft^2}{\underline{yd^2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}\cdot4840\cdot 9~ft^2}{80000~\$}\implies \cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{80000}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{\frac{80000}{1}}\implies \cfrac{130680}{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{80000}\implies \cfrac{3267}{8000}~\frac{ft^2}{\$}~\approx~ 0.408375 ~\frac{ft^2}{\$}$

X squared+ y squared = 2 y = 2x squared – 3 Which of the following describes the system?

cluponka [151]

Answer:

$x=-1,1,-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4} },\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$ and $y=-1,\frac{1}{2}$

The ordered pair solutions are $(-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(-1,-1)$ , and $(1,-1)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming the system is $\left \{ {x^2+y^2=2} \atop {y=2x^2-3}} \right.$ :

$x^2+y^2=2$

$x^2+(2x^2-3)^2=2$

$x^2+(4x^4-12x^2+9)=2$

$x^2+4x^4-12x^2+9=2$

$4x^4-11x^2+9=2$

$4x^4-11x^2+7=0$

$x^4-11x^2+28=0$

$(x^2-7)(x^2-4)=0$

$(4x^2-7)(x^2-1)=0$

$4x^2-7=0$

$4x^2=7$

$x^2=\frac{7}{4}$

$x=\pm\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$

$x^2-1=0$

$x^2=1$

$x=\pm1$

$y=2x^2-3$

$y=2(\pm\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}})^2-3$

$y=2({\frac{7}{4}})-3$

$y=\frac{7}{2}-3$

$y=\frac{1}{2}$

$y=2x^2-3$

$y=2(\pm1)^2-3$

$y=2(1)-3$

$y=2-3$

$y=-1$

Therefore, $x=-1,1,-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4} },\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$ and $y=-1,\frac{1}{2}$

The ordered pair solutions are $(-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(-1,-1)$ , and $(1,-1)$ .

Plsss help. Thanks!!

Answer:

401

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

To solve this problem, one first has to think about the given figure in a certain way. In the figure, one can see that it is a circle attached on either side of a rectangle. To find the perimeter of the figure, one has to find the circumference of the circle and then add two sides of the rectangle to the answer

2. Circumference of the circle

The formula to find the circumference of a circle is;

$2r$ (pi) or $d$ (pi)

~ diameter times the value (pi)

Normally to find the circumference of a semicircle, one would have to divide this formula by 2, but since in this case, one has to add two congruent semicircles, so therefore, the effect of dividing the equation by two, only to multiply by two again cancels, and hence, there is no need to divide by 2.

Substitute in the values;

(78)(pi)

~ 245

3. Find the perimeter of the entire object

Now, one has to add the two additional sides of the figure, to the circumferences of the semicircles to get the final answer;

78 + 78 + 245

= 401
