SAT

Inessa [10]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

s = 11

Explanation:

Given

The attachment completes the question.

Required

Find s

Because ABCD and EFGH are similar, then:

\frac{AB}{CD} = \frac{EF}{GH}

From the attachment:

AB = 2s

CD = 3s - 3

EF = 5.5

GH = 7.5

So, we have:

\frac{2s}{3s - 3} = \frac{5.5}{7.5}

Cross Multiply

2s * 7.5 = 5.5(3s - 3)

Open bracket

2s * 7.5 = 5.5*3s - 5.5*3

15s = 16.5s - 16.5

Collect Like Terms

15s - 16.5s = - 16.5

-1.5s = - 16.5

Make s the subject:

s = \frac{-16.5}{-1.5}

s = \frac{16.5}{1.5}

s = 11

<em>Hence, the value of s is 11 m</em>

Based on the given information, determine which company has a lower minimum and find the minimum value. g(x) at (10, 855) f(x) a
Gekata [30.6K]

The minimum production cost of company 2 is greater than the minimum production cost of company 1. We arrived at this value by comparing the production cost of both companies.

<h3>What is meant by minimum production cost?</h3>

The overall cost incurred by a company to manufacture a product or provide services is known as the cost of production.

The objective of every company is to keep this cost at minimum, hence the minimum production cost.

<h3>How do find minimum Production Cost?</h3>

Recall that the production function is given as:

f(x) = 0.25x² - 8x + 600

Inserting the values given by the schedule we have

  1. f(6) = 0.25(6²) - 8(6) + 600 = 561
  2. f(8) = 0.25(8²) - 8(8) + 600 = 552
  3. f(10) = 0.25(10²) - 8(10) + 600 = 545
  4. f(12) = 0.25(12²) - 8(12) + 600 = 540
  5. f(14) = 0.25(14²) - 8(14) + 600 = 537

For company 2, we are given the various production costs as;

x   - g(x)

6  - 862.2

8  - 856.8

10 -  855

12 -  856.8

14 - 862.2

Juxtaposing the above, we can infer that the minimum production cost of company 2 is greater than the minimum production cost of company 1.

The author uses the gas station attendants warning to create tension by foreshadowing that.
zepelin [54]

The author uses the gas station attendant's warning to create tension by foreshadowing that;

A;Maggie may have problems on her journey

Complete question is;

The author uses the gas station attendant's warning to create tension by foreshadowing that ?

A. Maggie may have problems on her journey

B. Maggie may not be a good driver.

C. the attendant does not like Maggie's car.

D. the attendant does not think Maggie has enough gas

This question is taken from the book titled "A Good Place for Maggie" written by Ofelia Dumas Lachtman.

  • From the book, we can see that the gas station's attendant is doubtful about the possibility of Maggie's car being able to successfully take on the difficult journey she was to embark upon. Thus, to him he felt that the car was okay but, he was of the opinion that Maggie may have gotten into trouble with the car along the journey.

  • In that moment of that statement by the stations attendant, we can say that the author used a technique called foreshadowing because he gave an advanced information in the story, showing things that could later happen and which could cause tension in the mind of the reader.

If f(x)=(x+3)³+4<br> let g(x)=f(x+1)-2<br> find when g(x)=12
Alla [95]

Answer:

Explanation:

g(x) = f(x + 1) - 2

g(x) = (x + 1 + 3)^3 -2

g(x) = (x + 4)^3 - 2

Now what are we supposed to do with this? I'm guessing we are to find what value of x will make g(x) = 12. If I'm wrong, leave a note in the form of a comment.

g(x) = 12

(x + 4)^3 - 2 = 12                 Add 2 to both sides.

(x + 4)^3 = 14                      Take the cube root of both sides.

x + 4 = cubrt(14)

x + 4 = 2.4101                      Subtract 4

x = 2.4101 - 4

x = -1.5899
