Answer:

I hope it's helpful.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, an extraneous solution (or spurious solution) is a solution, such as that to an equation, that emerges from the process of solving the problem but is not a valid solution to the problem.

Lin ran 2 3/4 miles in 2/5 of an hour, Noah ran 8 2/3 miles in 4/3 of an hour, how far would Lin run in 1 hour?

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

$6\frac{7}{8}\ miles$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Lil's distance in 2/5 hrs is 2 3/4hrs

-Let x be the distance ran in 1 hr.

#We equate and cross multiply to solve for x as follows:

$\frac{2}{5}\ hrs=2\frac{3}{4}\\1\ hr=x\\\\\therefore x=2\frac{3}{4}/\frac{2}{5}\\\\=6\frac{7}{8}\ miles$

Hence, Lil can run 6 7/8 miles in 1 hr.

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

law of cosines states c^2=a^2+b^2-2abc

b^2=26^2+24^2-2(26×24)cos 134°

b^2=676+576-1248cos134°

cos134= -0.6946

b^2=1252-12(-0.6946)

12×(-0.6946)= -8.3352

b^2=1252-(-8.3352)

b^2=1252+8.3352

b^2=1260.33

b=√1260.33

b=35.50

The graph of g(x) is a transformation of the graph of f(x)=3x. Enter the equation for g(x) in the box. G(x) =.

dalvyx [7]

Function transformation involves changing the form of a function

The function g(x) is $\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}$

The function is given as:

$\mathbf{f(x) = 3^x}$

g(x) is an exponential function that passes through points (-2,2) and (-1,4).

An exponential function is represented as:

$\mathbf{y = ab^x}$

At point (-2,2), we have:

$\mathbf{2 = ab^{-2}}$

At point (-1,4), we have:

$\mathbf{4 = ab^{-1}}$

Divide both equations

$\mathbf{\frac 42=\frac{ab^{-1}}{ab^{-2}}}$

Simplify

$\mathbf{2=\frac{b^{-1}}{b^{-2}}}$

Apply law of indices

$\mathbf{2=b^{-1+2}}$

$\mathbf{2=b}$

Rewrite as:

$\mathbf{b =2}$

Substitute 2 for b in $\mathbf{2 = ab^{-2}}$

$\mathbf{2 =a(2^{-2})}$

This gives

$\mathbf{2 =a(\frac 14)}$

Multiply both sides by 4

$\mathbf{a = 8}$

Substitute 8 for (a) and 2 for (b) in $\mathbf{y = ab^x}$

$\mathbf{y = 8(2)^x}$

Express as a function

$\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}$

Hence, the function g(x) is $\mathbf{g(x) = 8(2)^x}$

If the area of a rectangle 24a2b and the length is 8ab2, what would the width of the rectangle, given that width is found by div

slava [35]

Area of a rectangle: A = 24 a² b
Length: L = 8 a b²
Width: W = A / L = 24 a² b / 8 a b²
Answer: W = 3 a / b
