HELP MEEEEE PLEASEEEEEE

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sindrei [870]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x=16\dfrac{28}{37}\\ \\y=5\dfrac{1}{3}\\ \\z=7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows three paralel lines which divide the large triangle into three similar triangles.

By Thales theorem,

\dfrac{5}{z}=\dfrac{y}{8}=\dfrac{2}{3}

Then

\dfrac{5}{z}=\dfrac{2}{3}\Rightarrow 2z=15,\ z=7.5\\ \\\dfrac{y}{8}=\dfrac{2}{3}\Rightarrow 3y=16,\ y=\dfrac{16}{3}=5\dfrac{1}{3}

From the similarity of triangles,

\dfrac{x}{20}=\dfrac{z+8}{z+8+3}\\ \\\dfrac{x}{20}=\dfrac{7.5+8}{7.5+8+3}\\ \\\dfrac{x}{20}=\dfrac{15.5}{18.5}\\ \\x=20\cdot \dfrac{155}{185}=20\cdot \dfrac{31}{37}=\dfrac{620}{37}=16\dfrac{28}{37}

Heinz has a list of possible functions. Pick one of the g(x) functions below, show how to find the zeros, and then describe to H
MrRissso [65]

<span>g(x) = x3 – x2 – 4x + 4 </span>

<span>You can find the zeroes by factoring the equation. x<span>2  </span>(x - 1) - 4(x - 1) = 0 </span>

<span>(x2 - 4) (x - 1) = 0 </span>

(x + 2) (x - 2) (x - 1) = 0

x = 2, -2, and 1

The following are the key features of g(x):

g'(x) yields the slope

g''(x) yields the concavity

g'(x) = 0 provides the critical points

<span>g''(x) = 0 provides the point of inflection</span>

Put the quadratic into vertex form and state the coordinates of the vertex. y= y= \,\,x^2-6x-3 x 2 −6x−3
enot [183]

Answer:

y = (x - 3)^2 - 12

(3,-12)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = x^2 - 6x - 3

Solving (a): In vertex form

The vertex form of an equation is:

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

To do this, we make use of completing the square method.

We have:

y = x^2 - 6x - 3

------------------------------------------------------------------

Take the coefficient of x (i.e. -6)

Divide by 2; -6/2 = -3

Square it: (-3)^2 = 9

Add and subtract the result to the equation

------------------------------------------------------------------

y = x^2 - 6x - 3

y = x^2 - 6x + 9 - 9 - 3

y = x^2 - 6x + 9 - 12

Factorize x^2 - 6x + 9

y = x^2 - 3x-3x + 9 - 12

y = x(x - 3)-3(x - 3) - 12

Factor out x - 3

y = (x - 3)(x - 3) - 12

Express as squares

y = (x - 3)^2 - 12

Hence, the vertex form of y = x^2 - 6x - 3 is: y = (x - 3)^2 - 12

Solving (b): State the coordinates of the vertex.

In y = a(x - h)^2 + k; the vertex is: (h,k)

The vertex of y = (x - 3)^2 - 12 will be (3,-12)

Solve for X, 3^x + 3^2 = 90​
polet [3.4K]

3^x + 3^2 = 90

Simplify the known power:

3^x + 9 = 90

Subtract 9 from both sides:

3^x = 81

Take the cubic root of both sides:

X = 4
