Answer:
a. 6 b. -2
Step-by-step explanation:
a. x^3 = 216
x = ³√216
x = 6
b. -n^3/4 = 2
-n^3 = 8
-n = ³√8
- n = 2
n = -2
We have to identify the rational function among the given functions.
Rational function is a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. It is rational because one polynomial is divided by the other polynomial, like a ratio.
1. Consider the first function 
, since it is not a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. So, it is not a rational function.
2. Consider the second function 
, since it is not a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. So, it is not a rational function.
3. Consider the third function 
, since it is not a function that is the ratio of two polynomials. So, it is not a rational function.
4. Consider the fourth function 
, since it is a function that is the ratio of two polynomials (x+2) and (5x). So, it is a rational function.
So, Option D is the correct answer.
Answer: y=32/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
• x = 9
• y = 6√2
Step-by-step explanation:
The right triangles are all similar, so the ratios of hypotenuse to short side are the same:
27/x = x/3
x^2 = 81 . . . . . multiply by 3x
x = 9 . . . . . . . . take the square root
Then y can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:
x^2 = y^2 + 3^2
81 - 9 = y^2 = 72 . . . . . subtract 9
y = √72 = 6√2 . . . . . . .take the square root
The values of x and y are 9 and 6√2, respectively.
