Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram

PR + RQ = PQ

PR + RQ = 38

PR = 38 - RQ

using similar triangle;

KQ/RQ = KP/PR

45/RQ = 50/38-RQ

Cross multiply

50RQ = 45(38-RQ)

50RQ = 1710 - 45RQ

50RQ + 45RQ = 1710

95RQ = 1710

RQ = 1710/95

RQ = 18

Hence the length of RQ is 18

Gerald pours 441 cubic centimeters of liquid into the prism shown below. In the box, write the correct height of the liquidation

forsale [732]

The picture in the attached figure

we know that
[volume of the liquid]=[area of the base]*height
height=[volume of the liquid]/area of the base
volume of the liquid=441 cm³

area of the base=L*W
L=5 1/4 cm-----> (5*4+1)/4----> 21/4 cm
W=6 cm
area of the base=(21/4)*6-----> 31.5 cm²

height=[441 cm³]/31.5 cm²-----> 14 cm

the answer is
the height of the liquid is 14 cm

The graph of f(x)=3•2^x -3 is shown below. G(x) is a transformation of f(x). How would you write the equation for the function g

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the appropriate equation, notice the red graph has shifted up about 6 units. This means that $3*2^x-3$ which is shifted by -3 will move 6 up. -3+6= 3. This means the function will have +3. Only B and C are options. Now test a point. Notice the red function crosses the y-axis at about 5 or 6 when x=0.

$g(x) = 2^x+3\\g(0) = 2^0+3\\g(0)=1+3\\g(0)=4$

This function doesn't match.

$f(0) = 3*2^0+3\\f(0) = 3*1+3\\f(0)=6$

This function matches. Option C is correct.
