An arc is a segment of a circle. An arc measure is the measure of an angle that the arc creates in the center of a circle, while an arc length is the span of the arc. This measure can be given in degrees or radians. We can easily convert between the two using the fact that pi radians = 180 degrees.
Let :
T = Theresa age
H = her brother
We know :
T = H - 14
T + H = 35
Substitute T
H -14 + H = 35
2H - 14 = 35
2H = 49
H = 49/2 = 24.5
Since we know H = 24.5 we then can substitute it to either equation.
T = H - 14
T = 24.5 - 14
T = 10.5
Theresa is 10.5 years old
Her brother is 24.5 years old
Answer:
2.83
Step-by-step explanation:
d= Square root of (x2 - x1 )^2 +( y2- y1)^2
from the point given you
x1= -6
y1 = -17
x2 = -8
y2 = -19
by applying the formula
Square root of ( -8 - (-6))^2 + ( -19 - (-17))^2
Square root of (-8+6) + (-19+17)^2
There are no algebraic methods for finding solutions to a general mix of exponential and polynomial terms. A graphing calculator can be helpful.
This equation has 3 real solutions, approximately ...
x ∈ {-0.802246431546, 1.51677641228, 7.17475582739}

In the folder "iteration for solutions" is an equation for Newton's method iteration, essentially, ...
g(x) = x -f(x)/f'(x)
where f(x) is defined as shown in the picture.
Many graphing calculators can compute a numerical derivative, so you can essentially write the formula in this form without having to do the derivative-taking yourself. This calculator is nicely interactive, so the iteration result is produced at the same time the argument for g(x) is entered. Essentially, you write the answer by copying the answer using the 4-digit zero-crossing values shown on the graph as the iteration starting point.
