<h3>Answer: 3 units</h3>

=============================================================

Explanation:

The y coordinates are identical, so we just need to focus on the x coordinates.

Going from 0 to -3 is a distance of 3 units. Drawing out a number line might help.

Or we could apply subtraction and absolute value

|x1-x2| = |0-(-3)| = |0+3| = |3| = 3

which is the same as

|x2-x1| = |-3-0| = |-3| = 3

The absolute value is to ensure the result is never negative. Distance is never negative.

Side note: if the y coordinates weren't the same, then we'd have to use either the pythagorean theorem or the distance formula.

A conical-shaped umbrella has a radius of 0.4 m and a height of 0.45 m. Calculate the amount of fabric needed to manufacture thi

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

0.76m²

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we are given the following information.

Radius = 0.4m

Height = 0.45m

To solve this question, The umbrella is CONICAL in shape and it has no BASE, we would be finding the lateral surface area of a cone. Since we are given height and radius :

Lateral Surface Area of a cone =

πr√(h² + r²)

= π × 0.4√(0.45² + 0.4)

= 0.7566m²

≈ Approximately = 0.76m²

Therefore, the amount of fabric needed to manufacture this umbrella is 0.76m²

If f(x)=x^3-12x^2+35x-24f(x)=x 3 −12x 2 +35x−24 and f(8)=0f(8)=0, then find all of the zeros of f(x)f(x) algebraically.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The zeros of f(x) are: (x - 1), (x - 3) and (x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x)=x^3-12x^2+35x-24$

$f(8) = 0$

Required

Find all zeros of the f(x)

If $f(8) = 0$ then:

$x = 8$

And $x - 8$ is a factor

Divide f(x) by x - 8

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = \frac{x^3-12x^2+35x-24}{x - 8}$

Expand the numerator

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = \frac{x^3 - 4x^2 -8x^2 + 3x + 32x - 24}{x - 8}$

Rewrite as:

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = \frac{x^3 - 4x^2 + 3x - 8x^2 +32x - 24}{x - 8}$

Factorize

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = \frac{(x^2 - 4x + 3)(x - 8)}{x - 8}$

Expand

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = \frac{(x^2 -x - 3x + 3)(x - 8)}{x - 8}$

Factorize

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = \frac{(x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 8)}{x - 8}$

$\frac{f(x)}{x - 8} = (x - 1)(x - 3)$

Multiply both sides by x - 8

$f(x) = (x - 1)(x - 3)(x - 8)$

<em>Hence, the zeros of f(x) are: (x - 1), (x - 3) and (x - 8)</em>

Pls help asap thank you

Sati [7]

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height.

Height = sqrt(26^2-10^2)

Height = 24 cm

Volume = 20^2 x 24/3

Volume = 7,200 cm^3
