Find the zero of the function f(x) =-3x + 1

Mathematics
1 answer:
alexgriva [62]3 years ago
4 0

To find the zero of a function, we have to set f(x) equal to 0

0 = -3x + 1

Subtract 1 from both sides.

-1 = -3x

Divide both sides by -3

1/3 = x

State whether the data described below are discrete or continuous, and explain why. The numbers of police cars different cities
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Option d

Step-by-step explanation:

Continuous data are data that can take on any values within a range while discrete data can only take on particular values.

Thus for this case study, the number of police cars in different cities are usually not specific and may vary, thus this data is continuous.

S KM ∥ JN? Why or why not?
bixtya [17]

Given: We have the given figure through which we can see

LK=16,

KJ=10,

LM=24,

MN=15

To Find: Whether KM || JN and the reasoning behind it.

Solution: Yes, KM || JN because \frac{16}{10}= \frac{24}{15}

Explanation:

For this solution, we use the concept of Similar Triangles.

Now, KM || JN if ΔLKM ~ ΔLJN (i.e., if ΔLKM is similar to ΔLJN).

Now, ∠MLK=∠NLJ

To prove similarity of the two triangles, we have to show that the sides are proportional. In other words, LK:KJ = LM:LN

LK:KJ=LM:LN\\\\ \frac{LK}{KJ} =\frac{LM}{LN}\\\\\frac{16}{26}= \frac{24}{39}\\\\

which is true as both sides simplify to \frac{8}{13}

Thus, we see that ΔLKM ~ ΔLJN (i.e., if ΔLKM is similar to ΔLJN).

Therefore, KM || JN.

To come to the reasoning, notice that

\frac{LK}{LJ} =\frac{LM}{LN}\\\\\frac{LK}{LK+KJ} =\frac{LM}{LM+MN}\\\\\frac{LK+KJ}{LK} =\frac{LM+MN}{LM}\\\\1+\frac{KJ}{LK}=1+ \frac{MN}{LM}\\\\\frac{LK}{KJ} =\frac{LM}{MN}

In other words, \frac{16}{10}= \frac{24}{15}

The formula for the nth squaresquare number is Upper S Subscript n Baseline equals n squaredSn=n2. Use the formula to find the 9
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

9801

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the general term for calculating the nth term of a sequence;

Sn = n²

Where n is the number of terms.

To find the 99th term of the sequence using the nth term of the sequence;

Since we want to get the 99th term, this means that n = 99. Substituting n = 99 into the formula we will have;

S99 = 99²

S99 = 9,801
