Okay, let's see...
The problem is asking for a linear equation most likely in the form of y=mx+b
y is another way to say f(x)
<em>m = slope </em>
<em>b = y intercept </em>
Let's start with the y intercept first.
Y intercept means ' When does the line touch (intercept) the y axis.
In this case, if you look at the graph, the line <em>touches </em>the y axis at -1.
-1 will replaces b
To find the slope we are going to take 2 precise points from the graph.
Lets use <em>(0,-1)</em> and <em>(-6,4) </em>
To find the slope, we're going to use 
4 - (-1) / -6 - 0
Solve, our slope is 5/-6
That is our m
Our final equation is
(x + 2)(5x^2 + x - 4) =
x(5x^2 + x - 4) + 2(5x^2 + x - 4) =
5x^3 + x^2 - 4x + 10x^2 + 2x - 8 =
5x^3 + 11x^2 - 2x - 8 <===
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
Find out the domain
we know that
The radicand must be greater than or equal to zero
so
The domain is the interval -----> [0,∞)
All real numbers greater than or equal to zero
Answer:
x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x -7 - 3x + 4 = 25
-7x=25-4+7
x=-28/7
x=-4
Answer:
- <em><u>5.6875 in</u></em>
Explanation:
At the point of tangency, the <em>tangent </em>to a circle and the <em>radius</em> form a right triangle (the radius is perpendicular to the tangent).
Here you are given the length of the tangent (6in), and the distance from the bisected vertex to the circle (2.75 in)
I tried to upload the drawing but the tool is not allowing it now.
In the figure:
- The length of the tangent (6 in) is one leg of the triangle
- The distance from vertex and the circle (2.75in) along with the radius forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle: 2.75 + r.
- The other leg is the radius, r.
Then, you can use Pythagorean theorem:
Solve:
- r² + 36 = r² + 5.5r + 7.5625
The solution is in inches: r = 5.6875 inches ← answer
