Answer:

sqrt 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem again. a^2+b^2=c^2. The hypotenuse is the c value. One of the legs is either a or b, doesn't matter which. So you can make the equation 5^2+b^2=6^2. 25+b^2=36. Subtract 25 from each side to isolate the b variable. You're left with b^2=11. Now you take the square root of each side to get b. This makes b= sqrt 11.

The profit function for a product is given by p(x)=-x^3+3x^2+900x-2100, where x is the number of units produced and sold and P i
nalin [4]

Answer:

x = 30 and x = 3 both solve the equation correctly. See work below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The very first step is to realize that p(x) is in hundreds of dollars and that the given number is not. 60000 is not in hundreds of dollars. It is in dollars. 60000 dollars = 60000/100 = 600 hundreds of dollars.

Make the polynomial = 600

-x^3+3x^2+900x-2100 = 600  Subtract 600 from both sides

-x^3+3x^2+900x-2100 - 600 = 0  Combine

-x^3+3x^2+900x- 2700 = 0           Group  the first and second term and the Thrid and fourth terms.

(-x^2 + 3x^2) + (900x - 2700) = 0  Bring out the common factors from both groups.

-x^2(x - 3) + 900(x - 3) = 0 Factor out x - 3 on both sides of the plus sign

(- x^2 + 900)(x - 3) = 0       Reverse -x^2 + 900 to  900 - x^2

(900 - x^2)(x - 3) = 0          factor (900 - x^2) using the difference of squares

(30 - x)(30 + x) (x - 3) = 0

The two answers that work are

30 - x = 0                           Solve

- x = - 30                            Divide by - 1

-x/-1 = -30/-1                       Combine                          

x  = 30

============

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

===========

There are two values that will work to give p(x) = 600. There is no way to account for why both values work.

The graph below confirms both answers.

Two lines have the following equations
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

(4,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Easiest way to do this without any advanced methods is to use the answer choices to your advantage.  

For a.) we have (1,1) meaning x = 1 and y = 1 if we get a 7 for the first equation and a -2 for the second equation then that is the correct answer.

Let x=1, y =1:

4(1)+3(1)=4+3=7  Correct so far.

1+2(1)=1+2=3      Incorrect since we should have got a -2 if this was the solution


Let (0,-1) x = 0, y = -1:

4(0) + 3(-1) = 0 -3 = - 3 Incorrect so we can stop there next answer choice.


Let (4,-3) x = 4 y = -3:

4(4)+3(-3)=16-9=7   Correct so far.

4+2(-3)=4-6=-2      Both are correct!

Therefore the solution (where the lines intersect) is (4,-3).

katrin [286]

Answer:

Should be in the picture linked.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the chart is labeled by five, ten, fifteen, and twenty at the bottom X axis for gallons, then this should be correct. If not, could you take another picture of the problem? I could redo it then. Hopefully I helped, good luck

What value of x satisfies this equation? log(5x+20)=2
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

       log(5x + 20) = 2

From the given expression, we are to find x;

   Using the rule of logarithm, we can solve this problem;

             logₐb = C

                    b  = Cᵃ

So;

            log(5x + 20) = 2

  this is to base 10;

                    5x + 20 = 10²

                    5x  = 100 - 20

                    5x  = 80

                      x  = 16

The graph of F(x) shown below resembles the graph of G(x) = x ^ 2 but it has been changed somewhat . Which of the following coul
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Given G(x) = x^{2}

As we can see, the graph of f(x) is 2 units above the graphof g(x) in vertical (vertical shift)

=> f(x) = ax^{2} + 2

As you can see, the graph of f(x) is stretched vertically by a dilation factor of 3

and there is no reflection, so a= 3

=> the  equation of f(x) is:  f(x) = 3x^{2} + 2
