Answer:

  n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

"By inspection" is an appropriate method.

We are asked to compare the expressions

  n·n

  8·n

and find the value(s) of n that makes them equal. <em>By inspection</em>, we see that n=8 will make these expressions equal. We also know that both expressions will be zero when n=0.

__

More formally, we could write ...

  n^2 = 8n . . . . the two formulas give the same value

  n^2 -8n = 0 . . . . rearrange to standard form

  n(n -8) = 0 . . . . . factor

Using the zero product rule, we know the solutions will be the values of n that make the factors zero. Those values are ...

  n = 0 . . . . . makes the factor n = 0

  n = 8 . . . . . makes the factor (n-8) = 0

Generally, we're not interested in "trivial" solutions (n=0), so the only value of n that is of interest is n = 8.

__

A lot of times, I find a graphing calculator to be a quick and easy way to find function argument values that make expressions equal.

1) Find the inverse of the function below. Use g-1(x) to indicate the inverse 5 points
omeli [17]

Answer:

g-1(x)=SQRT{(x-4)/2} + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that the 2 is the exponent so ^ represents exponent

We know your function is g(x)=2(x-3)^2+4

For inverse functions we swap x and y values, note g(x) is like the y value

Isolate for y

y=2(x-3)^2+4

x=2(y-3)^2+4

(x-4)/2 = (y-3)^2

SQRT{(x-4)/2} + 4 = y

Therefore g-1(x)=SQRT{(x-4)/2} + 4

A square pyramid is shown sitting on its base.
sesenic [268]

Answer:

312

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the measure of the basea and that is 144 becuase 12x12

To find one side we do b*h over 2 and that is 7x12/2 which is 42 then we know that there are 4 more of those sides and we get 42*4 168

When we add 144+168 we will get 312
