Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of b that makes the two lines identical is the opposite of the y-intercept of the line.

y = 6x -6 . . . . has y-intercept = -6

The value of b is the number in the term -6, so is 6.

Solve the equation 2x^2+15x^2

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: you can only add like terms, for example; 2x + 3x = 5x as they both have an x next to the numbers.

you cannot simplify 2 + 4x as they both don’t have an x next to them.

hence why, the answer to 2x^2 + 15x^2 would be 17x^2

Arrange these functions from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change in the specified interval.

Romashka [77]

By definition, the average change of rate is given by:
$AVR = \frac{f(x2)-f(x1)}{x2-x1}$
We will calculate AVR for each of the functions.
We have then:

f(x) = x^2 + 3x interval: [-2, 3]:
$f(-2) = x^2 + 3x = (-2)^2 + 3(-2) = 4 - 6 = -2

f(3) = x^2 + 3x = (3)^2 + 3(3) = 9 + 9 = 18$
$AVR = \frac{-2-18}{-2-3}$
$AVR = \frac{-20}{-5}$
$AVR = 4$

f(x) = 3x - 8 interval: [4, 5]:
$f(4) = 3(4) - 8 = 12 - 8 = 4 f(5) = 3(5) - 8 = 15 - 8 = 7$
$AVR = \frac{7-4}{5-4}$
$AVR = \frac{3}{1}$
$AVR = 3$

f(x) = x^2 - 2x interval: [-3, 4]
$f(-3) = (-3)^2 - 2(-3) = 9 + 6 = 15

f(4) = (4)^2 - 2(4) = 16 - 8 = 8$
$AVR = \frac{8-15}{4+3}$
$AVR = \frac{-7}{7}$
$AVR = -1$

f(x) = x^2 - 5 interval: [-1, 1]
$f(-1) = (-1)^2 - 5 = 1 - 5 = -4

f(1) = (1)^2 - 5 = 1 - 5 = -4$
$AVR = \frac{-4+4}{1+1}$
$AVR = \frac{0}{2}$
$AVR = 0$

Answer:
these functions from the greatest to the least value based on the average rate of change are:
f(x) = x^2 + 3x
f(x) = 3x - 8
f(x) = x^2 - 5
f(x) = x^2 - 2x

1)a chord of length 18cm midway the radius of a circle. calculate the radius of the circle correct to 1d.p. 2)if two parallel ch

kykrilka [37]

Part 1:

Given that the length of the chord is 18 cm and the chord is midway the radius of the circle.

Thus, half the angle formed by the chord at the centre of the circle is given by:

$\cos\theta=\frac{\left( \frac{1}{2} r\right)}{r}= \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=60^o$

Now,

$\sin60^o= \frac{9}{r} \\ \\ \Rightarrow r= \frac{9}{\sin60^o} =10.392$

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 10.4 cm to 1 d.p.

Part 2I:

Given that the radius of the circle is 10 cm and the length of chord AB is 8 cm. Thus, half the length of the chord is 4cm. Let the distance of the mid-point O to /AB/ be x and half the angle formed by the chord at the centre of the circle be θ, then

$\sin\theta= \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5} \\ \\ \theta=\sin^{-1}\left( \frac{2}{5} \right)=23.6^o$

Now,

$\cos23.6^o= \frac{x}{10} \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=10\cos23.6^o=9.165\approx9.2cm$

Part 2II:

Given that the radius of the circle is 10cm and the angle distended is 80 degrees. Let half the length of chord CD be y, then:

$\sin40^o= \frac{y}{10} \\ \\ \\ \Rightarrow y=10\sin40^o=6.428$

Thus, the length of chord CD = 2(6.428) = 12.856 which is approximately 12.9 cm.
