Find the value of x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
hjlf2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar triangles, their sides are proportional

12 : 15  :: 8 : x - 4

Product of extremes = Product of means

12 × ( x- 4 ) = 15 × 8

12x -48 = 120

12x = 120 + 48

12x = 168

x = 168/12

x = 14

(2^{x} -2^{-x})^{2} = 4^{2} \\ \\2^{2x}-2*2^{x}*2^{-x} + 2^{-2x} =4^{2} \\ \\2^{2x}-2*2^{x-x} + 2^{-2x} =4^{2} \\ \\ 2^{2x}+ 2^{-2x} - 2=16 \\ \\ 2^{2x}+ 2^{-2x} = 18

\\ \\ 2.( 2^{x})^{3} - (2^{-x}^) ^{3}= (2^{x} -2^{-x})(2^{2x}+2^{x}*2^{-x}+2^{-2x})
\\ \\ ( 2^{x})^{3} - (2^{-x}^)^{3}=(2^{x} -2^{-x})(2^{2x}+2^{-2x}+2^{x}*2^{-x})
\\ \\ ( 2^{x})^{3} - (2^{-x}^)^{3}=(2^{x} -2^{-x})(2^{2x}+2^{-2x}+1)
\\ \\ ( 2^{x})^{3} - (2^{-x}^)^{3}=(2^{x} -2^{-x})((2^{2x}+2^{-2x})+1)


\\ \\ ( 2^{x})^{3} - (2^{-x})^{3} =(4)((18)+1)= 76
\\ \\ 2^{3x}-2^{-3x} =76

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

5000kg/m3

Step-by-step explanation:

Its easy to get the answer of a question from the unit.

So, it will be mass over metre cube.

Therefore, m=40kg x= (0. 2)^3 =0. 008m

40/0. 008 = 5000kg/m^3

Describe the end behavior of the given function f(x)=2/3x-2
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The end behavior of f(x)=2/3x-2 is: as x->+ infinity, f(x)->+ infinity

as x->- infinity, f(x)->- infinity

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are asked about the end behavior of a function, look to see where the function is traveling on the graph. For instance, this graph is linear, so you should look to see if the slope is positive or negative. This linear function is positive, so as x is reaching positive infinity the f(x) would also be reaching positive infinity. As x is reaching negative infinity, f(x) would also be reaching negative infinity. The end behavior of a function describes the trend of the graph on the left and right side of the x- axis. (As x approaches negative infinity and as x approaches positive infinity).
