<span>As of January 8, 2015, the U.S. is $18.1 trillion in debt. (Source: National Priorities Project)

1 Trillion 

= 1 Thousand Billion

= 1,000,000,000,000

= 10</span>¹²
<span>
---------------------------

U.S National debt currently stands at:

$ 18.1 x 10</span><span>¹²
</span><span>
*What information would be lost? Well firstly the 0's. The 0's put the size of the number into perspective. The word "trillion" would also be taken out of the picture, once again altering the perspective of the number.

Personally I'd prefer to hear "18.1 Trillion Dollars". Sounds more interesting.

With a detailed explanation from the internet<br> 1/(x-5)+3/(x+2)=4
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

\boxed{ \sf x=\dfrac{4\pm\sqrt{43}}{2}}

Explanation:

\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{x-5}+\dfrac{3}{x+2}=4

<u>make the denominators same</u>

\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{1(x+2)}{(x-5)(x+2)}+\dfrac{3(x-5)}{(x+2)(x-5)}=4

<u>join the fractions together</u>

\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{x+2+3x-15}{(x-5)(x+2)}=4

<u>cross multiply</u>

\rightarrow \sf x+2+3x-15=4(x-5)(x+2)

<u>simplify</u>

\rightarrow \sf 4x-13=4x^2-12x-40

<u>group the variables</u>

\rightarrow \sf 4x^2-16x-27 = 0

<u>use quadratic formula</u>

\rightarrow \sf x = \dfrac{-\left(-16\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-16\right)^2-4\cdot \:4\left(-27\right)}}{2\cdot \:4}

<u>simplify the following</u>

\rightarrow \sf x=\dfrac{4\pm\sqrt{43}}{2}

taurus [48]

Option A graph represents  S(x).

<h3>What is a Function ?</h3>

Function is a statement that relates tow variables.

It is given that

the side length of the larger frame S(x)

S(x) =  \rm 3 \sqrt{x -1}

X is the area of the smaller frame in square inches

A square root function is given by

s(x) = \rm \sqrt{x}

when the graph is shifted towards right and stretched by  3 , due to which the graph is taller as compared to the parent graph and

Therefore Option A graph represents  S(x).
