The answer would be 12.5 ft

This is because you know that if you cast a shadow of 8 feet and you are 5 feet then a lamp post that is 12.5 feet will have a 20 foot shadow.

Determine which function has the greatest rate of change as x approaches infinity.
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer: h(x) = 3*x^2 - 7*x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of a function is equal to the derivate:

remember that a derivate of the form:

k(x) = a*x^n is k'(x) = n*a*x^(n-1)

Then we have:

f(x) = 2*x - 10

f'(x) = 1*2* = 2

g(x) = 16*x - 4

g'(x) = 1*16 = 16

h(x) = 3*x^2 - 7*x + 8

h'(x) = 2*3*x - 1*7 = 6*x - 7

So the only that increases as x increases is h(x), this means that the greates rate of change as x approaches inffinity is the rate of change of h(x)

Find the value of w if the expression wx(3y² + 6y – 2) simplifies to the expression 6xy² + 12xy – 4x.
nadezda [96]

Answer:

w = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the expression and compare like terms with the simplified version.

Given

wx(3y² + 6y - 2) ← distribute parenthesis

= 3wxy² + 6wxy - 2wx

Compare coefficients of like terms with

6xy² + 12xy - 4x

Compare xy² term, then

3w = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

w = 2

Compare xy term, then

6w = 12 ( divide both sides by 6 )

w = 2

Compare x term, then

- 2w = - 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

w = 2

Hence the required value of w is 2

A 13?-foot board is cut into two pieces. The longer piece is 7.5 feet longer than the shorter piece. What is the length of each?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The smaller board would be 2.75 feet and the longer one would be 10.25 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, assume the shorter board is equal to x. Next, we would know that the longer board would be equal to x + 7.5. Using these two assumptions, we can add the lengths together, set equal to 13 and then solve for x.

x + (x + 7.5) = 13

2x + 7.5 = 13

2x = 5.5

x = 2.75

Now that we have the length of the shorter board, we can add 7.5 to it to get the larger one.

2.75 + 7.5 = 10.25

Consider the equations 15x + 9y = 45 and 9x + 8y = 12. Solve the system of equations using elimination. Give your solution to th
True [87]

Answer:

(-5.77, 6.46)

Step-by-step explanation:

15x + 9y = 45 ----------- i

9x + 8y = 12----------------ii

Multiply equation i by 9 the coefficient of x in equ ii

And equation ii by 15 the coefficient of x in equ I

9 x 15x + 9y = 45 ----------- i

15 x 9x + 8y = 12----------------ii

135x+81y = 405

135x+120y= 180

Subtract equation ii from I

135x-135x+81y-(+120y)= 405-180

-39y=225

y = 225/-39 = -5.77

Insert the value of y in equ i

15x + 9y = 45

15x+9(-5.77) = 45

15x-51.92=45

15x = 45+51.92

15x= 96.92

x = 96.92/15= 6.46

(x,y) = (-5.77, 6.46)

x = 6.92/15
