Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given eqaution is;

y = x^2 - 8.

It is not a linear equation.

<u>Reason</u><u>:</u>

The power of the equation is more than one or its power is 2.

As we know that linear equation has power one on its variable so, it can't be considered as linear equation. Example of linear equation is; y= 2x+8. where "X" variable has only "1" power.

Therefore, the equation is not a linear equation.

An internet service provider is implementing a new program based on the number of connected devices in each household. Currently
oee [108]
Cost of the current plan: $175
Number of devices: x
Cost of the new plan: $94+($4.50/device)x

Cost of the new plan is less than the current plan:
$94+($4.50/device)x<$175

Solving for x:
$94+($4.50/device)x-$94<$175-$94
($4.50/device)x<$81
(device/$4.50)($4.50/device)x<(device/$4.50)($81)
x<18 devices

Please, see the attached file.
Thanks.

Alabama Instruments Company has set up a production line to manufacture a new calculator. The rate of production of these calcul
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

5536 calculators

Step-by-step explanation:

We integrate the function dx/dt to obtain the number of new calculators between beginning of the 3rd week  and end of week 4. Note that beginning of 3rd week is the same as end of 2nd week. So, \int\limits^4_2 {\frac{dx}{dt} } \, dx=  \int\limits^4_2 {5000 (1 - \frac{100}{(t +12)^{2} }) } \, dx

Let u = t + 12, then \frac{du}{dt}= 1. So, du = dt. We also change the limits of our integration. So, when t = 2, u = 2 + 12 = 14 and when t = 4, u = 4 + 12 = 16

Then  \int\limits^4_2 {5000(1 -\frac{100}{(t+12)^{2} } )} \, dx = ∫₁₄¹⁶ {5000(1 -\frac{100}{u^{2} } )} \, du = 5000[ u + \frac{100}{u} ]₁₄¹⁶ = 5000[16 + \frac{100}{16} - (14 + \frac{100}{14} )] = 5000 [16 - 14 + \frac{100}{16} - \frac{100}{14}  ] = 5000 [2 + \frac{100}{16} - \frac{100}{14}  ] = 5535.7

Raj made this argument: The Triangle Inequality Theorem states that if the lengths of three sides of a triangle are a, b, and c,
natali 33 [55]
He is wrong because if a + b > c it doesn't follow that a^2 + b^2 > c^2
(a + b^2 will always be greater than c^2  but a^2 + b^2 will not always be.
.
An example:

Right angled triangle with sides 3, 4 and 5:-
3 + 4 > 5 but 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2
