What is the answer to the equation x^2-6x-16

Mathematics
1 answer:
UkoKoshka [18]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

(x + 2)(x  - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

sum = -6

Product = -16

Factors = -8 , 2

When we multiply (-8)*2 = -16 and -8 + 2 = -6

x² - 2x - 16 = x² + 2x - 8x - 8*2

                 = x(x + 2) - 8(x +2)

                =(x+2)(x - 8)

g If a snowball melts so that its surface area decreases at a rate of 4 cm2/min, find the rate (in cm/min) at which the diameter
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

Rate of change of the diameter is equal to 0.053cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

A snowball is of the shape of a sphere

Surface area of Sphere (S)= 4*pi*R^2

Rate of change of surface area

dS/dt = -4cm^2/min

the negative sign indicates the surface area is decreasing.

Radius = d/2 where d represents diameter

using this is the surface area equation

S = 4*pi*(d/2)^2

   = pi*d^2

dS/dt = 2*pi*d*d(d)/dt

4 = 2*pi*d*(d)/dt

d(d)/dt = 2/12*pi= \frac{1}{6pi} cm/min

so the rate of change of the diameter is equal to 0.053cm/min

which is a shrink of an exponential growth function? a. f(x) = 1/3(3)^x b. f(x) = 3(3)^x c. f(x) = 1/3(1/3)^x d. f(x) = 3(1/3)^x
Gnesinka [82]

Answer: option a.

f(x)=\frac{1}{3} (3)^x


Explanation:


A <em>shrink</em> of a function is a <em>shrink</em> on the vertical direction. It means that for a certain value of x, the new function will have a lower value, in the intervals where the function is positive, or a higher value, in those intervals where the function is negative. This is, the image of the new function is shortened in the vertical direction.


That is the reason behind the rule:

  • given f(x), the graph of the function a×f(x), when a > 1, represents a vertical stretch of f(x),
  • given f(x), the graph of the function a×f(x), when a < 1, represents a vertical shrink of f(x).

So, we just must apply the rule: to find a shrink of an exponential growth function, multiply the original function by a scale factor less than 1.


Since it <em>is a shrink of</em> <em>an exponential growth function</em>, the base must be greater than 1. Among the options, the functions that meet that conditon are a and b:


a. f(x)=\frac{1}{3} (3)^x \\ \\ b.f(x) = 3(3)^x


Now, following the rule it is the function with the fraction (1/3) in front of the exponential part which represents a <em>shrink of an exponential function</em>.

Approximate square root 18 to the tenths and plot on number line
GenaCL600 [577]

Since 18 does not have a number that when multiplied by itself equal 18, then it will be a decimal number.  You can tell the closest whole number by seeing what is the closest square.  In this case we know that 16 is 4 times 4 and the next one would be 5 times 5 to equal 25, so the whole number would be 4.  

Now, the easiest way to do this is to get you calculator and take the square root of 18 to get 4.242641.  The problem wants it to be to the nearest tenth so 4.2 is your answer.  On a number line, if it is in four parts, you will plot it just before the first little line.

Hope this helps!  If you are using more small lines in you number line, comment me below and I would be happy to lead you in the right direction.
