Expanding the limit, we get (x^2+2x∆x+∆x^2-2x-2∆x+1-x^2+2x-1)/<span>∆x
Crossing the 1s , the 2xs, and the x^2s out, we get
(2x</span>∆x+∆x^2-2∆x)/<span>∆x
Dividing the </span><span>∆x, we get
2x+</span><span>∆x-2.
Making the limit of </span><span>∆x=0, we get 2x-2.</span>
To ease your problem, consider "L" as you x-axis
Then the coordinate become:
A(- 4 , 3) and B(1 , 2) [you notice that just the y's changed]
This is a reflection problem.
Reflect point B across the river line "L" to get B', symmetric of B about L.
The coordinates of B'(1 , -1) [remember L is our new x-axis]
JOIN A to B' . AB' intersect L, say in H
We have to find the shortest way such that AH + HB = shortest.
But HB = HB' (symmetry about L) , then I can write instead of
AH + HB →→ AH + HB'. This is the shortest since the shortest distance between 2 points is the straight line and H is the point requiered
Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
The quantity of distance measures in miles depends on the quantity of time measured in hours. is your best choice.
The quantity of time is an independent variable, as it continues to go no matter how much you travel, and so it is the independent.
The quantity of distance depends on your speed and time, and because it depends on these two factors, it is the dependent.
hope this helps
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
it's kinda confusing b/c of the minus signs.. huh... but -5 is less than -2 sooo
start with
-2 1/2 - (-5 3/4 )
=5 3/4 - 2 1/2
=5 3/4 - 2 2/4
=23/4 - 10/4
=13/4
there you go... :)
if you want it back in proper fractions
3 1/4
