<h3>Answer:  Approximately 23.0 cm</h3>

=====================================================

Work Shown:

a = 20.3

b = unknown

c = 30.7

Apply the pythagorean theorem to find b

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(20.3)^2 + b^2 = (30.7)^2

412.09 + b^2 = 942.49

b^2 = 942.49-412.09

b^2 = 530.4

b = sqrt(530.4)

b = 23.0304146727757  value is approximate

b = 23.0

I rounded to one decimal place because the other values (20.3 and 30.7) were to one decimal place.

f(x) = 4x - x^2

1)

f(4) = 4(4) - 4^2 = 16 - 16 = 0

f(-4) = 4(-4) - (-4)^2 = -16 - 16 = -32

f(4) - f(-4) = 0 - (-32) = 32

2)

f(3/2) = 4(3/2) - (3/2)^2

f(3/2) = 6 - 9/4 = 15/4

√f(3/2) = √(15/4) = √15 / 2

3)

f(x + h) = 4(x + h) - (x + h)^2

= 4x + 4h -(x^2 + 2xh + h^2)

= 4x + 4h -x^2 - 2xh - h^2

f(x - h) = 4(x - h) - (x - h)^2

= 4x - 4h -(x^2 - 2xh + h^2)

= 4x - 4h -x^2 + 2xh - h^2

So

[f(x + h) -f(x - h) ] / 2h

= [4x + 4h -x^2 - 2xh - h^2 - ( 4x - 4h -x^2 + 2xh - h^2 )] / 2h

=( 4x + 4h -x^2 - 2xh - h^2 - 4x + 4h + x^2 - 2xh + h^2 ) / 2h

= (8h - 4xh) / 2h

= 2h(4 -2x) / 2h

= 4 - 2x

Answer: [f(x + h) -f(x - h) ] / 2h = 4 - 2x

Sally buys 400 feet of fencing to put up a fence around her backyard. If she ends up using 7/8 of it, how much fencing will she
bagirrra123 [75]

We should start by finding how much she did use:

7/8 * 400 = 350 feet used

To find how much she has left, subtract 350 from 400 to get 50 feet.
