Answer: 240 minutes, 20 cups, 4000 pounds

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the following conversions:

1 hour = 60 minutes

2 cups = 1 pint

2 pints = 1 quart

1 ton = 2000 pounds

$4\ hours\times \dfrac{60\ minutes}{1\ hour}=\large\boxed{240\ minutes}\\\\\\\\5\ quarts \times \dfrac{2\ pints}{1\ quart}\times \dfrac{2\ cups}{1\ pint}=\large\boxed{20\ cups}\\\\\\\\2\ tons\times \dfrac{2000\ pounds}{1\ ton}=\large\boxed{4000\ pounds}$

What is the area of a circle whose equation is (x-3)² + (y + 1) ² =81?

kupik [55]

Okay, first, given the equation, we need to find out what the radius of the circle is. Let us state the general equation of a circle:

$\frac{(x-x_{1})^2}{r^2}+ \frac{(y-y_{1})_^2}{r^2}=1$

Where $(x_{1}, y_{1})$ is the centre of the circle. In this case, we don't need to know the centre. Just the radius.

Let us start by converting the equation into standard for, which I typed above. Divide both sides by 81.

$\frac{(x-3)^2}{81}+ \frac{(y+1)^2}{81}=1$

Great! We now know the radius of the circle. It is $\sqrt{81}$ because it is the bottom fraction. Now we know that the radius is 9.

So now lets input this into the area of circle formula:

$A=πr^2$

Now we insert our radius.

$A=9^2π$

$=A=81π$

You can convert that into a decimal if you wish.

Hope this helped!

Re-write the equation without the h component.

levacccp [35]

Answer:

$f(x) = 2[\frac{3^x}{9}] + 2$

$f(x) = 8(4)^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 2(3)^{x-2} + 2$

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^{x+2}$

Required

Remove the h component

In a function, the h component is highlighted as:

$f(x) = a^{x+h}$

So, we have:

$f(x) = 2(3)^{x-2} + 2$

Split the exponents using the following law of indices:

$a^m/a^n = a^{m-n}$

$f(x) = 2*\frac{3^x}{3^2} + 2$

$f(x) = 2*\frac{3^x}{9} + 2$

$f(x) = 2[\frac{3^x}{9}] + 2$

<em>The h component has been removed</em>

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^{x+2}$

Split the exponent using the following law of indices

$a^{m+n} =a^m * a^n$

So, we have:

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^x * 4^2$

Express 4^2 as 16

$f(x) = \frac{1}{2}(4)^x * 16$

Divide 16 by 2

$f(x) = 8(4)^x$

Plot the x- and y-intercepts to graph the equation y=-x-5

Rainbow [258]

The y intercept is the y value determined when x = 0
y = -0 - 5
y = - 5
The y intercept is (0,-5)

The x intercept is where y = 0
0 = -x - 5
5= -x
x = - 5
The x intercept is (- 5, 0)
