Simplify the rational expression. State any restrictions on the variable.

A. t + 4; t ≠ 8 B. - t + 4; t ≠ - 8 C. t - 4; t ≠ - 8 D. - t - 4; t ≠ 8
I think it would be C.

T^2 -4t -32 = (t+4)(t-8)

so

t^2 -4t -32
-------------
t-8

= (t+4)(t-8)
--------------
t-8

= t+4

answer is A. t + 4; t ≠ 8

In a square with side length of 6, what is the distance between the center of the square and the center of the largest equilater

Vanyuwa [196]

Place the right angle at the origin. Short leg on x-axis.
The forth corner of the square is the point on the hypotenuse where the line y = x intersects. (Draw a diagram!)
In this case the hypotenuse is y = -4x/3 + 8
x = -4x/3 + 8
7x/3 = 8
7x = 24
x = 3.428571429

What are the coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices P(−4, −1) , Q(2, 2) , and R(2, −3) ?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$(x,y)=(0,\frac{-2}{3})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Vertices of Triangle $P(x_1,y_1)=(-4,-1)$ , $Q(x_2,y_2)=(2, 2)$ and $R(x_3,y_3)=(2,-3)$

To find : Centroid of a triangle

The centroid of a triangle is the point of intersection of the three medians of the triangle.

The formula to calculate the centroid of a triangle is:

$(x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

Where, $x_1,x_2,x_3,y_1,y_2,y_3$ are the coordinates of the centroid

Substituting the values in the formula gives us:

$(x,y)=(\frac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\frac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

$(x,y)=(\frac{-4+2+2}{3},\frac{-1+2-3}{3})$

$(x,y)=(\frac{0}{3},\frac{-2}{3})$

Therefore, $(x,y)=(0,\frac{-2}{3})$

What is the volume of a right circular cylinder with a radius of 4 m and a height of 4 m?

dybincka [34]

Cylinder volume = PI * radius^2 * height
cylinder volume = 3.14159 * 16 * 4
cylinder volume = 3.14159 * 64
cylinder volume = 201.06

This is a pre calculus question that I need help with, serious answer PLEASE and thank you! Will give brainliest.

IRISSAK [1]

The wording of this question is a bit confusing... You can't write a sequence in sigma notation, but rather a series or sum. I think the question is asking you to write the sum of the sequence,

$\dfrac12,\dfrac14,\dfrac18,\ldots,\dfrac1{64}$

which would be

$\dfrac12+\dfrac14+\dfrac18+\cdots+\dfrac1{64}$

in sigma notation.

To do this, notice that the denominator in each term is a power of 2, starting with $2^1=2$ and ending with $2^6=64$ . So in sigma notation, this series is

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^6\frac1{2^n}$
