Answer:

3√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following;

DB = 3

CD = 6,

Required

find AD.

using the similarity property of a triangle

DB/AD = AD/CD

3/AD = AD/6

3*6 = AD²

18 = AD²

AD = √18

AD= √9*√2

AD = 3√2

Hence the measure of AD is 3√2

Answer:

$10,400

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2,000 dollars are being invested at the beginning of each year and gets a 4% interest at the end that means 2,000*104%=$2,080

It also continues on for 5 years so 2,080*5=$10,400

What is the range of the function y = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x + 8 EndRoot?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

- ∞ < y < ∞

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is, $y = \sqrt[3]{x + 8}$ .

Now, the origin function of this above function is, $y = \sqrt[3]{x}$ which has real y-values as output for all real x-values input.

Hence, the function $y = \sqrt[3]{x + 8}$ will ba valid for all real values of x and will have real y-value corresponding to each x-value.

Therefore, the range of this function i.e. the y-value of this function will be

- ∞ < y < ∞. (Answer)
