Answer:

4x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a three sided polygon with three edges and three vertices. the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees

the perimeter of a triangle = sum of the side lengths

let the unknown length be represented with y

13x  - 21 = 4x + 3 + 5x - 8 + y

13x- 21 = 9x - 5 + y

Make y the subject of the formula

13x - 21 - 9x + 5 = y

4x - 16 = y

the side length = 4x - 16

A person invests 4000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 5.5% interest compounded annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how lo

if the person leaves the money in the bank, the time it will take for it to reach the given final amount is 6.3 years.

<h3>What is an interest in banking?</h3>

Interest is simply the amount of money a lender or financial institution receives for lending out money or pays for receiving money.

The formular for calculating compound interest is expressed as;

A = P(1 + r/n)^(n*t)

Where A is final amount, P is initial principal balance, r is interest rate, n is  number of times interest applied per time period and t is number of time periods elapsed.

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial principal balance P = $4000
  • Interest rate r = 5.5% anuually = 5.5/100 = 0.055
  • Final amount A = $5600
  • Time t = ?

We substitute our given values into the expression above.

A = P(1 + r/n)^(n*t)

5600 = 4000(1 + 0.055/1)^(1*t)

5600 = 4000( 1.055 )^t

( 1.055 )^t = 5600 / 4000

( 1.055 )^t  = 1.4

We take log of each sides

0.02325t = 0.1461

t = 0.1461 / 0.02325

t = 6.3

Therefore, if the person leaves the money in the bank, the time it will take for it to reach the given final amount is 6.3 years.

Bob's age is 15 years less than half his father's age. In six years his father's age will be eleven years more than triple Bob's
AlekseyPX

Answer: the father is 44 years old now

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Bob's present age be represented by x

Let his father's present age be represented by y

Bob's age is 15 years less than half his father's age. This means that

x = y/2 - 15

x + 15 = y/2

y = 2x + 30

y - 2x = 30 - - - - - - - - - -1

In six years his father's age will be eleven years more than triple Bob's age. This means that

y + 6 = 3(x + 6) + 11

y + 6 = 3x + 18 + 11

y - 3x = 18 + 11 - 6

y - 3x = 18 + 11 - 6

y - 3x = 23 - - - - - - - - -2

Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes

x = 7

y = 2x + 30

y = 2×7 + 30

y = 14 + 30

y = 44

Factorise x squared + 4x + 3 ​
olganol [36]
<h3>Answer:  (x+1)(x+3)</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Let's assume it factors into (x+a)(x+b)

The goal is to find the two numbers a and b.

FOIL out (x+a)(x+b) to get x^2+(a+b)x+ab

Note how a+b is the middle term and ab is the last term.

In the original expression, 4 is the middle term and 3 is the last term.

So we need to find two numbers that

  • add to 4
  • multiply to 3

There are two ways to multiply to 3 and they are

  • 1 times 3 = 3
  • -1 times -3 = -3

But only the first way has the factors add to 4. So that means a = 1 and b = 3.

Therefore (x+a)(x+b) = (x+1)(x+3)

And x^2+4x+3 = (x+1)(x+3)

Help. I need help with these questions ( see image).<br> Please show workings.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

  4)  6x

  5)  2x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can work both these problems at once by finding an applicable rule.

  \text{For $f(x)=ax^n$}\\\\\lim\limits_{h\to 0}\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\lim\limits_{h\to 0}\dfrac{a(x+h)^n-ax^n}{h}\\\\=\lim\limits_{h\to 0}\dfrac{ax^n+anx^{n-1}h+O(h^2)-ax^n}{h}=\boxed{anx^{n-1}}

where O(h²) is the series of terms involving h² and higher powers. When divided by h, each term has h as a multiplier, so the series sums to zero when h approaches zero. Of course, if n < 2, there are no O(h²) terms in the expansion, so that can be ignored.

This can be referred to as the <em>power rule</em>.

Note that for the quadratic f(x) = ax^2 +bx +c, the limit of the sum is the sum of the limits, so this applies to the terms individually:

  lim[h→0](f(x+h)-f(x))/h = 2ax +b

__

4. The gradient of 3x^2 is 3(2)x^(2-1) = 6x.

5. The gradient of x^2 +3x +1 is 2x +3.

__

If you need to "show work" for these problems individually, use the appropriate values for 'a' and 'n' in the above derivation of the power rule.
