Mathematics
1 answer:
olchik [2.2K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In \triangle BAC, \: DE || AC

Hence, by basic proportionality theorem:

\frac{x + 2}{x}  =  \frac{3}{2}  \\  \\  \therefore \: 2(x + 2) = 3x \\ \therefore \:2x + 4 = 3x \\ \therefore \:4 = 3x - 2x \\ \therefore \:4 = x \\  \huge \red { \boxed{\therefore \:x = 4}}

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. is 0.125x – 3.375

2.  0.6x – 5

3. 0.89x-5

Just use a slope calculator and desmos to see if your answer is right. Also a rounding calculator if the answer for one is too long, example: the third one said 0.88888888888889 for the first number so i rounded that to 0.89 to make sure it doesnt look like a computer did it

A 40-m-long chain hangs vertically from a cylinder attached to a winch. Assume there is no friction in the system and the chain
daser333 [38]

Answer:

a) W₁ = 78400 [J]

b)Wt = 82320 [J]  

Step-by-step explanation:

a) W = ∫ f*dl      general expression for work

If we have a chain with density of 10 Kg/m, distributed weight would be

9.8 m/s² * 10 kg   = mg

Total length of th chain is 40 m, and the function of y at any time is

f(y) = (40 - y ) mg   where ( 40 - y ) is te length of chain to be winded

At the beggining we have to wind 40 meters   y = 0 at the end of the proccess  y = 40 and there is nothing to wind then:

f(y) = mg* (40 - y )

W₁ =  ∫f(y) * dy    ⇒ W₁ = ∫₀⁴⁰ mg* (40 - y ) dy  ⇒ W₁ = mg [ ∫₀⁴⁰ 40dy - ∫₀⁴⁰ ydy

W₁ = mg [ 40*y |₀⁴⁰   -  1/2 * y²  |₀⁴⁰    ⇒  W₁ = mg* [ 40*40 - 1/2 (40)² ]

W₁ = mg * [1/2]     W₁ = 10*9,8* ( 800 )

W₁ = 78400 [J]

b) Now we can calculate work to do if we have a 25 block and the chain is weightless

W₂ = ∫ mg* dy     ⇒    W₂  = ∫₀⁴⁰ mg*dy   ⇒    W₂  = mg y |₀⁴⁰

W₂ = mg* 40   = 10*9.8* 40  

W₂ = 3920 [J]

Total work

Wt = W₁  +  W₂        ⇒    Wt = 78400 + 3920

Wt = 82320 [J]

If 2.5 is a root of the equation 2x^2+5x−q=0, what are the possible values of q?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

q = -2510 +5 = \pm \sqrt{5^2-4*2*q} \\ 225 = 25-8q \\\\8q = -200 \rightarrow q = -\frac {200}8 = -25

Step-by-step explanation:

Grab the generic solution of the equation. \frac 52 = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{5^2-4*2*q}}{2*2}. Let's isolate the radical, and square both sides.10 +5 = \pm \sqrt{5^2-4*2*q} \\ 225 = 25-8q \\\\8q = -200 \rightarrow q = -\frac {200}8 = -25
