Answer:

We must prove that (c+a)(c+d) = (b+c)(b+d)

  1. Let us use principles from mathematical induction
  2. \frac{a}{b}  =  \frac{b}{c}  =  \frac{c}{d}  = x
  3. a=bx , b=cx, c=dx
  4. a+c = b + c
  5. c +d = b + d
  6. Such that (a+c)(c+d)=(b+c)(b+d)

Solve for x write the smaller solution first and the larger solution second. Round to two decimal places (x+8)^2-7=0
siniylev [52]

Answer:

x ≈ - 10.65, x ≈ - 5.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x + 8)² - 7 = 0 ( add 7 to both sides )

(x + 8)² = 7 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 8 = ± \sqrt{7} ( subtract 8 from both sides )

x = - 8 ± \sqrt{7} , thus

x = - 8 - \sqrt{7} ≈ - 10.65

x = - 8 + \sqrt{7} ≈ - 5.35

The fuel cost per hour for running a ship is approximately one half the cube of the speed (measured in knots) plus additional fi
andrezito [222]

Answer:

6 knots

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed be v knots

then time taken to cover 500 M = 500 / v hrs

fuel consumption /hr = 216 + 0.5v^3

let F be the fuel consumption for trip

= [500/v][216 + 0.5v^3]

= 500[216/v + 0.5v^2]

dF/dv = 500[ - 216/v^2 + v]

d^2F/d^2v = 500[432/v^3 + 1] , i.e. +ve

so setting dF/dv will give a minima

500[ -216/v^2 + v] = 0

or v = 216/v^2

or v^3 = 216

solving, we get v = [216]^(1/3) = 6 knots
