Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a function. Every x has only 1 y associated with it. You cannot find an exception to this rule.

Stated another more common way: if you take a ruler and lay it flat on the graph so that the ruler is parallel to the y axis, you will find the ruler will go through only one y for every x. That's called the vertical line test.

A cable hangs between two poles of equal height and 35 feet apart. At a point on the ground directly under the cable and x feet

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

293.38 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Distance between poles=35 feet

$h(x)=10+0.1(x^{1.5})$

Weight of cable=10.4 per linear foot

We have to find the weight of the cable.

Differentiate w.r.t

$h'(x)=0.1(1.5)x^{0.5}=0.15x^{0.5}$

$s=2\int_{0}^{17.5}\sqrt{1+(h'(x))^2}dx$

$s=2\int_{0}^{17.5}\sqrt{1+(0.15x^{0.5})^2}dx$

$s=2\int_{0}^{17.5}\sqrt{1+0.0225x}dx$

Let $1+0.0225x=t$

$dx=\frac{1}{0.0225}dt$

$s=\frac{2}{0.0225}\int_{0}^{17.5}\sqrt{t}dt$

$s=\frac{2}{0.0225}\times\frac{2}{3}[t^{\frac{3}{2}}]^{17.5}_{0}$

$s=2\times \frac{2}{3\times0.0225}[(1+0.0255x)^{\frac{3}{2}]^{17.5}_{0}$

$s=\frac{4}{3\times 0.0225}((1+0.0225(17.5))^{\frac{3}{2}-1)$

s=28.21

Weight of cable= $28.21\times 10.4=293.38$ pound

Find a and b to make the following matrices equal.

podryga [215]

We need the following to be true
a+2b = -a
a+4 = 2a - 3b

Let's look at the first equation.
a + 2b = -a
Subtract both sides by a
2b = -2a
b = -a

Substitute b= -a into the second equation
a+4 = 2a + 3a
a + 4 = 5a
4a = 4
a = 1

Just take the negative of that and you get the value of b.
b = -1

Your solution is a=1 and b = -1.

Have an awesome day! :)
