*see attachment for diagram

Answer:

✔️m<BAC = 72°

✔️m<BCD = 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<ABC = (4x - 16)°

m<ACB = (5x + 7)°

Find the numerical value of m<ABC, m<ACB, m<BAC, and m<BCD.

First we need to determine the value of x.

The ∆ given is an isosceles triangle with two equal sides, therefore, the angles opposite the two equal sides would also be equal.

Therefore:

(4x - 16)° + 2(5x + 7)° = 180° (sum of ∆)

Solve for x

4x - 16 + 10x + 14 = 180

Add like terms

14x - 2 = 180

Add 2 to both sides

14x = 182

Divide both sides by 14

x = 13

Find the measure of each angle by plugging in the value of x where necessary:

✔️m<ABC = (4x - 16)° = 4(13) - 16

m<ABC = 36°

✔️m<ACB = (5x + 7)° = 5(13) + 7

m<ACB = 72°

✔️m<BAC = m<ACB (both are base angles of the isosceles ∆, so they are equal)

Therefore,

m<BAC = 72°

✔️m<BCD = m<ABC + m<ACB (exterior angle theorem of a triangle)

m<BCD = 36 + 72 (Substitution)

m<BCD = 108°

Therefore, the angle measures that are correct are:

✔️m<BAC = 72°

✔️m<BCD = 108°

A company is selling books. It has to pay $500 to start printing the books, and once they have done that, the books sell at $14.99 each. How many books must they sell to make a profit?

First we would model an equation. X will be the amount of books sold, and Y will be profits (in dollars obv). They had to pay $500 before they could start selling, so we must account for that too.

This equation would be y=14.99x-500 because for every book sold, X increases by 1, increasing Y by 14.99

The answer would be 34 books sold in order to turn a profit. (500/14.99=

Find the exact length of the curve. y2 = 4(x + 1)3, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1, y &gt; 0
mylen [45]
We can find this using the formula: L= ∫√1+ (y')² dx

First we want to solve for y by taking the 1/2 power of both sides:

y=(4(x+1)³)^1/2
y=2(x+1)^3/2

Now, we can take the derivative using the chain rule:

y'=3(x+1)^1/2

We can then square this, so it can be plugged directly into the formula:

(y')²=(3√x+1)²
<span>(y')²=9(x+1)
</span>(y')²=9x+9

We can then plug this into the formula:

L= ∫√1+9x+9 dx *I can't type in the bounds directly on the integral, but the upper bound is 1 and the lower bound is 0
L= ∫(9x+10)^1/2 dx *use u-substitution to solve
L= ∫u^1/2 (du/9)
L= 1/9 ∫u^1/2 du
L= 1/9[(2/3)u^3/2]
L= 2/27 [(9x+10)^3/2] *upper bound is 1 and lower bound is 0
L= 2/27 [19^3/2-10^3/2]
L= 2/27 [√6859 - √1000]
L=3.792318765

The length of the curve is 2/27 [√6859 - √1000] or <span>3.792318765 </span>units.
