Marjorie has a square tabletop whose area is 36 square feet. What is the tabletop’s perimeter?

1 answer:

5 0

24. Since the area of a square is 36, it's best to figure out what the factors of 36 are.

The square root of 36 is going to be 6 so both factors are going to be six.

You don't have to worry about the side lengths being different because it's a square; therefore, the sides can't be uneven like a rectangle characteristically would.

Please help me out with these slopes.

inysia [295]

Remember, the slope formula is y2-y1 over x2-x1. To plug numbers into the formula, find two points. Then, you substitute the points into the formula.

Y-2 = -3(x + 6), write the equation of the line in slope intercept form.

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

y = -3x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Given: y - 2 = -3(x + 6)

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, we need to know the slope(m) and the y-intercept(b). By looking at the given equation, we can see that the slope is -3. We are also given the value of one point: (-6, 2).

To find the y-intercept, input the given values of the slope and the point into the equation format and solve for b:

y = mx + b

2 = -3(-6) + b

2 = 18 + b

Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation to isolate b:

2 - 18 = 18 - 18 + b

-16 = b

The y-intercept is -16.

Now that we know the slope and the y-intercept, we can write the equation:

y = -3x - 16

can someone show me how to find the general solution of the differential equations? really need to know how to do it for the upc

mariarad [96]

The first equation is linear:

$x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}-y=x^2\sin x$

Divide through by $x^2$ to get

$\dfrac1x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}-\dfrac1{x^2}y=\sin x$

and notice that the left hand side can be consolidated as a derivative of a product. After doing so, you can integrate both sides and solve for $y$ .

$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\dfrac1xy\right]=\sin x$
$\implies\dfrac1xy=\displaystyle\int\sin x\,\mathrm dx=-\cos x+C$
$\implies y=-x\cos x+Cx$

The second equation is also linear:

$x^2y'+x(x+2)y=e^x$

Multiply both sides by $e^x$ to get

$x^2e^xy'+x(x+2)e^xy=e^{2x}$

and recall that $(x^2e^x)'=2xe^x+x^2e^x=x(x+2)e^x$ , so we can write

$(x^2e^xy)'=e^{2x}$
$\implies x^2e^xy=\displaystyle\int e^{2x}\,\mathrm dx=\frac12e^{2x}+C$
$\implies y=\dfrac{e^x}{2x^2}+\dfrac C{x^2e^x}$

- - -

Yet another linear ODE:

$\cos x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\sin x\,y=1$

Divide through by $\cos^2x$ , giving

$\dfrac1{\cos x}\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos^2x}y=\dfrac1{\cos^2x}$
$\sec x\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+\sec x\tan x\,y=\sec^2x$
$\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}[\sec x\,y]=\sec^2x$
$\implies\sec x\,y=\displaystyle\int\sec^2x\,\mathrm dx=\tan x+C$
$\implies y=\cos x\tan x+C\cos x$
$y=\sin x+C\cos x$

- - -

In case the steps where we multiply or divide through by a certain factor weren't clear enough, those steps follow from the procedure for finding an integrating factor. We start with the linear equation

$a(x)y'(x)+b(x)y(x)=c(x)$

then rewrite it as

$y'(x)=\dfrac{b(x)}{a(x)}y(x)=\dfrac{c(x)}{a(x)}\iff y'(x)+P(x)y(x)=Q(x)$

The integrating factor is a function $\mu(x)$ such that

$\mu(x)y'(x)+\mu(x)P(x)y(x)=(\mu(x)y(x))'$

which requires that

$\mu(x)P(x)=\mu'(x)$

This is a separable ODE, so solving for $\mu$ we have

$\mu(x)P(x)=\dfrac{\mathrm d\mu(x)}{\mathrm dx}\iff\dfrac{\mathrm d\mu(x)}{\mu(x)}=P(x)\,\mathrm dx$
$\implies\ln|\mu(x)|=\displaystyle\int P(x)\,\mathrm dx$
$\implies\mu(x)=\exp\left(\displaystyle\int P(x)\,\mathrm dx\right)$

and so on.

Point

inn [45]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

A. x = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with:

4x + 1 = 21

Subtract 1 from both sides:

4x + 1 - 1 = 21 - 1

4x = 20

Divide both sides by 4:

4x/4 = 20/4

x = 5.
