Let f(x) = 4x − 3. If f(a) = 9 and f(b) = 5, then what is f(a + b) ?

1 answer:

7 0

F(x) = 4x - 3

f(a) = 4a-3

9 = 4a-3

4a = 12

a = 12 / 4

a = 3

_____________________

f(b) = 4b-3

5+3 = 4b

8 = 4b

b = 8 / 4

b = 2

___________________

f(a+b) = 4(a+b) - 3

f(a+b) = 4(3+2) - 3

f(a+b) = 4(5) - 3

f(a+b) = 20 - 3

f(a+b) = 17

22. The area of a triangle can be represented by the expression 14x^5 + 63x^2. If the base is 7x^2, write

kkurt [141]

Answer:

h = 4x ^ 3 + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you should know for this case is that the area of a triangle is given by:

A = (1/2) * (b) * (h)

Where,

b: base.

h: height.

Clearing the height we have:

h = ((2) * (A)) / (b)

Substituting the values

h = ((2) * (14x ^ 5 + 63x ^ 2)) / (7x ^ 2)

Simplifying the expression:

h = ((2) * (2x ^ 3 + 9))

h = 4x ^ 3 + 18

answer

an expression to represent its height is

h = 4x ^ 3 + 18

1) Solve the following system of equations algebraically. Give your solution as two

Bad White [126]

For this case we have the following system of equations:

$y = x ^ 2 + 7x + 12\\y = 2x + 8$

Equating both equations we have:

$x ^ 2 + 7x + 12 = 2x + 8\\x ^ 2 + 7x-2x + 12-8 = 0\\x ^ 2 + 5x + 4 = 0$

We must find the solutions, for this we factor. We look for two numbers that, when multiplied, result in 4 and when added, result in 5. These numbers are 4 and 1:

$4 + 1 = 5\\4 * 1 = 4$
