Answer:
x = 1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt( 7x+2) = sqrt(3x+7)
Square each side
(sqrt( 7x+2))^2 = (sqrt(3x+7))^2
7x+2 = 3x+7
Subtract 3x from each side
7x-3x +2 = 3x+7-3x
4x+2 = 7
Subtract 2 from each side
4x+2-2 = 7-2
4x = 5
Divide by 4
4x/4 = 5/4
x = 1 1/4
Check for extraneous solution
sqrt( 7*5/4+2) = sqrt(3*5/4+7)
sqrt( 35/4 + 8/4) = sqrt(15/4+28/4)
sqrt( 43/4) = sqrt(43/4)
Solution is valid
Answer:
The axis of symmetry will be at 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The middle of -3 and 5 will be the axis :)
-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4
-1, 0, 1, 2, 3
0, 1, 2

Answer: A 24 cm piece of string is cut into two pieces , one piece is used to form a circle and the other piece is used to form a square.
How should this string be cut so that the sum of the areas is a minimum .
:
Let x = the circumference of the circle
then
(24-x) = the perimeter of the square
:
Find the area of the circle
find r
2*pi*r = x
r =
Find the area of the circle
A =
A =
A = sq/cm, the area of the circle
:
Find the area of the square
A = sq/cm the area of the square
The total area
At = +
Graph this equation, find the min
Min occurs when x=10.6 cm
cut string 10.6 cm from one end
