Answer:

x= -3 +√2 ≈ -0.1716, and x = - 3 -2√2 ≈ -5.8284

Step-by-step explanation:

y= -1/2(x+3)² +4

For x -intercept, y = 0.

0 = - 1/2(x+3)² + 4 /*(-2)

0 = (x+3)² - 8

(x+3)² = 8

√(x+3)² = +/-√8

x+3 = +/-√8

x = - 3+/- 2√2

x= -3 +√2 ≈ -0.1716, and x = - 3-2√2 ≈ -5.8284

Answer:

1115322

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1906, San Francisco felt the impact of an earthquake with a magnitude of 7.8.

Claimed statement is he worst is yet to come, with an earthquake 142,990 times as intense as the 1906 earthquake ready to hit San Francisco.

We need to find the magnitude of their claimed earthquake.

It can be calculated by simply multiplying 142,990 by 7.8 as follows :

$E=142990 \times 7.8\\\\=1115322$

The magnitude of claimed earthquake is 1115322 .

Type the equation that shows the pattern among this set of ordered pairs.

Ludmilka [50]

Line y=mx+b has point (0,b).
If you've got poind (0,4) - you can write, that b=4.
So this is line y=mx+4
Now slope. You've got point (1,0), so for x=1, y=0. Substitute:
m * 1 + 4 = 0
m+4 = 0
m=-4
So equation of this line is: y=-4x+4

A sector with a central angle measure of \purpleD{175\degree}175°start color #7854ab, 175, degree, end color #7854ab has a radiu

Alisiya [41]

Answer: $219.94\ cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The central angle of a sector measures $175^{\circ}$

The radius of the circle is $r=12\ cm$

The area of the sector is given by

$\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{\theta }{360^{\circ}}\pi r^2$

Insert the values

$\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{175^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}\cdot \pi \times 12^2\\\\\Rightarrow A=219.94\ cm^2$

Solve this Algebra problem please, I can't figure it out.

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

$45927/4096$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the geometric series, because the ratio of consecutive terms is common:

$r = 84/112 = 63/84 = 3/4$

The first term is 112.

So the nth term is:

$t_n = t_1*r^{n-1}$

The 9th term is:

$t_9 = 112*(3/4)^8=45927/4096$
