PLS HELP ASAP What is the value of x?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Furkat [3]3 years ago

<u>ANSWER</u>

a. 12 units

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

According to the altitude theorem, RT which is the altitude, is equal to the geometric mean of TQ and TS, the segments created by the foot of the altitude on the hypotenuse.

This implies that:

x =  \sqrt{TQ \times TS}

From the diagram, TQ=16 and TS=9.

We substitute these values and solve for x.

x =  \sqrt{9 \times 16}

x =  \sqrt{144}

x = 12

Therefore x is 12 units.

The correct answer is A

Find lim x→3 sqrt 2x+3-sqrt 3x/ x^2-3x. you must show your work or explain your work in words plsss I need help
sineoko [7]

I'm assuming the limit is supposed to be

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{\sqrt{2x+3}-\sqrt{3x}}{x^2-3x}

Multiply the numerator by its conjugate, and do the same with the denominator:

\left(\sqrt{2x+3}-\sqrt{3x}\right)\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)=\left(\sqrt{2x+3}\right)^2-\left(\sqrt{3x}\right)^2=-(x-3)

so that in the limit, we have

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{-(x-3)}{(x^2-3x)\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)}

Factorize the first term in the denominator as

x^2-3x=x(x-3)

The x-3 terms cancel, leaving you with

\displaystyle\lim_{x\to3}\frac{-1}{x\left(\sqrt{2x+3}+\sqrt{3x}\right)}

and the limand is continuous at x=3, so we can substitute it to find the limit has a value of -1/18.

0.175 as a percentage
Paul [167]

Answer: 17.5%

To convert from decimal to percent, just multiply the decimal value by 100. In this example we have: 0.175 × 100 = 17.5% (answer).

➥ The ease way:

1) Move the decimal point two places to the right: 0.175 → 1.75 → 17.5.

2) Add a % sign: 17.5%

Answer: 17.5%
