Pepsi [2]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 2.4 or x = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² - 8x + 2 = 0

Quadratic formula

x = {-b ±√b² - 4ac} / 2a

a = 3

b = -8

c = 2

x = {-b ±√b² - 4ac} / 2a

= {-(-8) ±√(-8)² - 4*3*2} / 2*3

= (8 ± √64 - 24) / 6

= (8 ± √40) / 6

= (8 ± 2√10) / 6

= 8/6 ± 2√10/6

= 4/3 ± √10 / 6

x = 4/3 + √10 / 6 or 4/3 - √10 / 6

x = 2.4 or x = 0.3

What is the inverse of the function?<br> f(x) = 1/3x-5
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

        -1

       f   (x) = -3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  in f(x) = 1/3x-5, replace f(x)= with y= as follows:  y = (1/3)x - 5

2) interchange x and y, obtaining:  x = (1/3)y - 5

3) solve this result for y:  (1/3)y = -x - 5, or -(x + 5).  Next, multiply both sides by                        3 to eliminate the fraction (1/3):  y = -3(x + 5)

4)  replace y with the symbol for "inverse of f(x);

        -1

       f   (x) = -3(x + 5)

Find the measures of the angles of a triangle if the measure of one angle is twice the measure of a second angle and the third a
guapka [62]

Answer:

<h2><em> 38°, 66° and 76°</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle consists of 3 angles and sides. The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°. Let the angle be <A, <B and <C.

<A + <B + <C = 180° ...... 1

If the measure of one angle is twice the measure of a second angle then

<A = 2<B ...... 2

Also if the third angle measures 3 times the second angle decreased by 48, this is expressed as <C = 3<B-48............ 3

Substituting equations 2 and 3 into 1 will give;

(2<B) + <B + (3<B-48) = 180°

6<B- 48 = 180°

add 48 to both sides

6<B-48+48 = 180+48

6<B = 228

<B = 228/6

<B =38°

To get the other angles of the triangle;

Since <A = 2<B  from equation 2;

<A = 2(38)

<A = 76°

Also <C = 3<B-48 from equation 3;

<C = 3(38)-48

<C = 114-48

<C = 66°

<em>Hence the measures of the angles of the triangle are 38°, 66° and 76°</em>
