Butoxors [25]

Ans

I = sqrt(P/R)

Step-by-step explanation:

You divide both sides by R first

P/R = I^2 R/R

So,

I^2 = P/R

take the square root of both sides

I = sqrt(P/R)

John drove from house to work at an average speed of 30 mph, trip took 40 minutes. How far in meters is his house to work?

AysviL [449]

Answer:

20 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we need to know that distance = speed * time

In this particular question, we have the time and the speed, we are only told to find the distance.

Now as we can see, the units are not consistent. While the average speed is 30mph, the time is not in hours but minutes. So practically, we have to convert the time to hours.

Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, the number of hours in 40 minutes would be 40/60 = 2/3 hours.

Now we can proceed to find the distance. We simply multiply the average speed with the time.

Hence, that is 30 * 2/3 = 20 meters

If (x + 8) is a factor of f(x), which of the following must be true?

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

f(-8) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

If (x+8) is a factor of f(x), then for some expression p, we have ...

f(x) = (x+8)p

Evaluated at x=-8, this gives ...

f(-8) = (-8+8)p = 0p

f(-8) = 0 . . . . must be true

_____

Similarly, f(8) = (8+8)p = 16p. This may or may not be zero, depending on the factors of p. The only offered statement that <em>must</em> be true is the one shown above.

Axis of sym: x =

marta [7]

Answer:

<h2>SEE BELOW</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>

quadratic function
PEMDAS

<h3>let's solve:</h3>

vertex:(h,k)

therefore

vertex:(-1,4)

axis of symmetry:x=h

therefore

axis of symmetry:x=-1

to find the quadratic equation we need to figure out the vertex form of quadratic equation and then simply it to standard form i.e ax²+bx+c=0

vertex form of quadratic equation:

y=a(x-h)²+k

therefore

y=a(x-(-1))²+4
y=a(x+1)²+4

it's to notice that we don't know what a is

therefore we have to figure it out

the graph crosses y-asix at (0,3) coordinates

so,

3=a(0+1)²+4

simplify parentheses:

$3 = a(1 {)}^{2} + 4$

simplify exponent:

$3 = a + 4$

therefore

$a = - 1$

our vertex form of quadratic equation is

y=-(x+1)²+4

let's simplify it to standard form

simplify square:

$y = - ( {x}^{2} + 2x + 1) + 4$

simplify parentheses:

$y = - {x}^{2} - 2x - 1 + 4$

simplify addition:

$y = - {x}^{2} - 2x + 3$

therefore our answer is D)y=-x²-2x+3

the domain of the function

$x\in \mathbb{R}$

and the range of the function is

$y\leqslant 4$

zeroes of the function:

$- {x}^{2} - 2x + 3 = 0$

$\sf divide \: both \: sides \: by \: - 1$

${x}^{2} + 2x - 3 = 0$

$\implies \: {x}^{2} + 3x - x + 3 = 0$

factor out x and -1 respectively:

$\sf \implies \: x(x + 3) - 1(x + 3 )= 0$

group:

$\implies \: (x - 1)(x + 3) = 0$

therefore

$\begin{cases} x_{1} = 1 \\ x_{2} = - 3\end{cases}$

What three consecutive integers equal -87?

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

What three consecutive integers have a sum of 87? Which means that the first number is 28, the second number is 28 + 1 and the third number is 28 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 87 are 28, 29, and 30. We know our answer is correct because 28 + 29 + 30 equals 87 as displayed above.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive integers are as simple as 1, 2, 3!

Integers are consecutive if one follows another. How do we "jump" from one integer to the next? We add 1, right? 7, 8 and 9 are three consecutive integers. Add one to 7 to get 8 and add one more to get 9.

Now lets think about this in algebraic terms. Lets name these consecutive integers , x, y and z.

The problem tells us that their sum is -87. (Recall, "sum" is just a fancy word for the answer when we add.)

x+y+z = -87

Here is the trick! We need to rewrite this equation so that we have only one variable. Easy!

y is one more that x, so y= x+1

And z is one more than y, so z= y+1. But y is also equal to (x+1)! So z=y+1=(x+1)+1=x+2

Now we have a problem that we can solve! x+(x+1)+(x+2)=-87.

Combining term.: 3x+3=-87

Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation: 3x=84

Divide each side of the equation by 3: x=28

We have solved for x, but we are not done! We need to find y and z. I know you can do this. Remember y is one more than x and z is one more than y.

Check your work! Make sure these three consecutive numbers do in fact add up to -87.
