What is the length of segment AE?

Mathematics
1 answer:
nexus9112 [7]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

AE=\frac{50}{3}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

In the right triangle ABC

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem fin the hypotenuse AC

AC^{2} =AB^{2}+BC^{2}

substitute

AC^{2} =6^{2}+8^{2}

AC^{2} =100

AC =10\ units

step 2

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal

so

\frac{AB}{CD}=\frac{AC}{CE}

substitute and solve for CE

\frac{6}{4}=\frac{10}{CE}\\ \\CE=4*10/6\\ \\CE=\frac{20}{3}\ units

step 3

Find the length of segment AE

AE=AC+CE

substitute the values

AE=10\ units+\frac{20}{3}\ units=\frac{50}{3}\ units

Subtract x3 – 7x2 + 3 from the sum of - 3x3 + x2 and – x2 + 4x - 3.
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

x3 – 7x2 + 3------  x3 - 7x2 + 3

3x3 + x2-----------x2 • (3x + 1)

x2 + 4x - 3------------ x2 + 4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

 ((x3) -  7x2) +  3

Step  2  :

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

2.1    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = x3-7x2+3

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  1  and the Trailing Constant is  3.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1

of the Trailing Constant :  1 ,3

Let us test ....

  P    Q    P/Q    F(P/Q)     Divisor

     -1       1        -1.00        -5.00      

     -3       1        -3.00        -87.00      

     1       1        1.00        -3.00      

     3       1        3.00        -33.00    

Hope this helps.

A certain virus is dying off at a rate of 18% per hour. Initially there were
djyliett [7]

Answer:

3 strain would still alive after 48 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of virus = 40000 grams

A certain virus is dying off at a rate of 18% per hour.

We are supposed to find  how much of the  strain would still be alive after 48 hours

Formula : N(t)=N_0(1-r)^t

N_0=Initial population

N(t)= Population after t hours

r = rate of decrease = 18% = 0.18

t = time = 48 hours

So,the  strain would still be alive after 48 hours=40000(1-0.18)^{48}=2.91 \sim 3

Hence 3 strain would still alive after 48 hours

Suppose the correlation coeffecient
Usimov [2.4K]

A relatively large correlation coefficient, such as the 0.87 given here, indicates a direct proportion relationship between two variables. Here, as baby gains weight, smart phone pricing increases. Note that this is NOT a causal relationship.
