Answer:

11 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

let smaller odd number be x

larger odd nuber be x+2

according to the question algebraic expression can be written as

6x+3(x+2)=105

6x+3x+6=105

9x=105-6

9x=99

x=99/9

x=11

larger number=x+2

11+2

Determine whether each equation is True or False. In case you find a "False" equation, explain why is False.

elixir [45]

Answer:

(1) TRUE.

(2) FALSE.

(3) FALSE.

(4) TRUE.

(5) FALSE.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) $\sqrt{32} = 2^{\frac{5}{2} }$

$2^{\frac{5}{2} } = (\sqrt{2} )^5 = (\sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2}) = 4\sqrt{2}\\\\\sqrt{32} = \sqrt{16 \ \times \ 2}\ = \ \sqrt{16} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ = \ 4\sqrt{2}$

Thus, the equation is TRUE.

(2) $16^{\frac{3}{8} } = 8^2$

$16^{\frac{3}{8} } =(2^4)^{\frac{3}{8} } = 2^\frac{3}{2} }= (\sqrt{2} )^3 = (\sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2} \ \times \ \sqrt{2}) = 2\sqrt{2} \\\\8^2 = 64$

Thus, the equation is FALSE.

(3) $4^{\frac{1}{2} } = \sqrt[4]{64}$

$4^{\frac{1}{2} }= \sqrt{4} = 2\\\\\sqrt[4]{64} = (64)^{\frac{1}{4} } = (2^6)^{\frac{1}{4} }= 2^{\frac{6}{4} } = 2^{\frac{3}{2} }=(\sqrt{2} )^3 = (\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2} ) = 2\sqrt{2}$

Thus, the equation is FALSE.

(4) $2^8 = (\sqrt[3]{16} )^6$

$2^8 = 256\\\\ (\sqrt[3]{16} )^6 = (16)^{\frac{6}{3} } = (2^4)^{\frac{6}{3} } = (2)^{\frac{24}{3} } = 2^8 = 256$

Thus, the equation is TRUE.

(5) $(\sqrt{64} )^{\frac{1}{3} } = 8^{\frac{1}{6} }\\\\$

$8^{\frac{1}{6} } = (2^3)^{\frac{1}{6} } = 2^{\frac{3}{6} } = 2^{\frac{1}{2} } = \sqrt{2} \\\\(\sqrt{64} )^{\frac{1}{3} } = (2^6)^{\frac{1}{3} } = 2^{\frac{6}{3} } = 2^2 = 4$

Thus, the equation is FALSE.

Diagram below shows the curve of a quadratic function

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

q = -8, k = 2.

r = -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - p)^2 + q

This is the vertex form of a quadratic where the vertex is at the point (p, q).

Now the x intercepts are at -6 and 2 and the curve is symmetrical about the line x = p.

The value of p is the midpoint of -6 and 2 which is (-6+2) / 2 = -2.

So we have:

f(x) = 1/2(x - -2)^2 + q

f(x) = 1/2(x + 2)^2 + q

Now the graph passes through the point (2, 0) , where it intersects the x axis, therefore, substituting x = 2 and f(x) = 0:

0 = 1/2(2 + 2)^2 + q

0 = 1/2*16 + q

0 = 8 + q

q = -8.

Now convert this to standard form to find k:

f(x) = 1/2(x + 2)^2 - 8

f(x) = 1/2(x^2 + 4x + 4) - 8

f(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x + 2 - 8

f(x) = 1/2x^2 + 2x - 6

So k = 2.

The r is the y coordinate when x = 0.

so r = 1/2(0+2)^2 - 8

= -6.
