Which statement describes the inverse of m(x) = x2 – 17x?

Answer:

The correct option is;

The \ domain \ restriction \ x \geq \dfrac{17}{2} \ results \ in \ m^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{x + \dfrac{289}{4} }}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information is that m(x) = x² - 17·x

The above equation can be written in the form;

y = x² - 17·x

Therefore;

0 = x² - 17·x - y

From the general solution of a quadratic equation, 0 = a·x² + b·x + c we have;

x = \dfrac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c}}{2\cdot a}

By comparison to the equation,0 = x² - 17·x - y, we have;

a = 1, b = -17, and c = -y

Substituting the values of a, b and c into the formula for the general solution of a quadratic equation, we have;

x = \dfrac{-(-17)\pm \sqrt{(-17)^{2}-4\times (1) \times (-y)}}{2\times (1)} = \dfrac{17\pm \sqrt{289+4\cdot y}}{2}

Which can be simplified as follows;

x =  \dfrac{17\pm \sqrt{289+4\cdot y}}{2}= \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \dfrac{1}{2}  \times \sqrt{289+4\cdot y}} = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{289}{4} +\dfrac{4\cdot y}{4} }}

And further simplified as follows;

x = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{\dfrac{289}{4} +y }} = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{y + \dfrac{289}{4} }}

Interchanging x and y in the function of the inverse, m⁻¹(x), we have;

m^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{x + \dfrac{289}{4} }}

We note that the maximum or minimum point of the function, m(x) = x² - 17·x found by differentiating the function and equating the result to zero, gives;

m'(x) = 2·x - 17 = 0

x = 17/2

Similarly, the second derivative is taken to determine if the given point is a maximum or minimum point as follows;

m''(x) = 2 > 0, therefore, the point is a minimum point on the graph

Therefore, as x increases past the minimum point of 17/2, m⁻¹(x) increases to give;

The \ domain \ restriction \ x \geq \dfrac{17}{2} \ results \ in \ m^{-1}(x) = \dfrac{17}{2} \pm \sqrt{x + \dfrac{289}{4} }} to increase m⁻¹(x) above the minimum.

Find the radius of the circle if the center is at (1, 2) and the point (-3, 4) lies on the circle.
Anton [14]

Answer:

2√5

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius is the distance from the center to a point anywhere along the edge of the circle. To find the distance between these two points, use the distance formula.

d = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2 + (y_2-y_1)^2} \\d = \sqrt{(1--3)^2 + (2-4)^2}\\ d = \sqrt{4^2 + -2^2}\\ d = \sqrt{16 + 4}\\ d = \sqrt{20} \\d = 2\sqrt{5}

What is the angle of BTC, Angle TBC,Angle TCB
Goryan [66]

By geometric and algebraic properties the angles BTC, TBC and TBC from the triangle BTC are 128°, 26° and 26°, respectively.

<h3>How to determine the angles of a triangle inscribed in a circle</h3>

According to the figure, the triangle BTC is inscribed in the circle by two points (B, C). In this question we must make use of concepts of diameter and triangles to determine all missing angles.

Since AT and BT represent the radii of the circle, then the triangle ABT is an <em>isosceles</em> triangle. By geometry we know that the sum of <em>internal</em> angles of a triangle equals 180°. Hence, the measure of the angles A and B is 64°.

The angles ATB and BTC are <em>supplmentary</em> and therefore the measure of the latter is 128°. The triangle BTC is also an <em>isosceles</em> triangle and the measure of angles TBC and TCB is 26°.

By geometric and algebraic properties the angles BTC, TBC and TBC from the triangle BTC are 128°, 26° and 26°, respectively.
