Answer:

f'(x) = -28 \ at  \ x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f'(2) =  \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{f(2+h)) -f(2)}{h} \\\\f(2+h) = 1 - 7(2+h)^2 = 1 - 7(4 +h^2 +4h) = 1 - 28 - 7h^2 - 28h = - 7h^2 -28h - 27\\\\f(2) = 1 - 7(2^2) = 1 - 28 = -27\\\\f(2+h) - f(2) = -7h^2 - 28h - 27 - (-27) = -7h^2 -28h -27 + 27 = -7h^2 -28h\\\\f'(2) =   \lim_{h \to 0}\frac{-7h^2 - 28h}{h} \\\\

       = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{h(-7h -28)}{h}\\\\= \lim_{h \to 0} (-7h -28)}\\\\= -7 (0) - 28\\\\= -28

This is not possible because arcsin is the angle that will give you a sine value of 2.  Sine values range from -1 to 1; there is no angle that will give you a sine of 2.

A rectangular garden must have a perimeter of 160 feet and an area of at least 1300 square feet. Describe the possible lengths o
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer: The lengths of the garden are 57.32 feet and 22.68 feet (approximately)

Step-by-step explanation: The area has been given as 1300 which means,

Area = L x W

1300 = L x W ———(1)

Also the perimeter has been given as 160, hence we also have

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

160 = 2(L + W)

80 = L + W ———(2)

From equation (2), make L the subject of the equation

L = 80 - W

Substitute for the value of L into equation (1)

1300 = L x W

1300 = (80 - W) x W

1300 = 80W - W^2

Rearranging the equation we now have;

W^2 - 80W + 1300 = 0

Since we cannot factorize we shall apply the quadratic equation formula to solve for W. Please refer to the attachment for details of this.

Having calculated the value of W to be either 57.32 or 22.68, we can now find the value of L as follows;

Substitute for the value of W into equation (1)

1300 = L x W

1300 = L x 57.32

Divide both sides of the equation by 57.32

22.68 = L.

(Note that if we take the other value of W which is 22.68, the value of L shall be 57.32)

Since the area of the rectangular garden must be AT LEAST 1300 square feet we shall use the exact values for;

Length = 57.32 feet

Width = 22.68 feet

Plzzz help<br> thank u for those who help
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given diagram, the following facts are evident.

(BR) = (CR), Both sides have two small orange lines on them. This shows that these sides are congruent.

(<B) = (<C), this is shown by the box around both angles, indicating that both angles have a measure of (90) degrees.

(AB) = (AC), Both sides have one small orange line on them. This indicates that these sides are congruent to each other.

Therefore, the sides are congruent by the theorem (SAS); side-angle-side, congruence.
