White raven [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x = -3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(5x – 3) = 41

-10x + 6 = 41

-10x + 6 - 6 = 41 - 6

-10x/-10 = 35/-10

x = -3.5

In the linear equation y = 2x - 8, the slope of the line is
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer

Anything in front of the x. Everything else is irrelevant unless it changes the value of the number in front of the x.

In this case the slope is 2.

New Question

If the equation was given as 3y = 6x - 8, then the slope would be

y = 6/3x - 8/3

y = 2x - 8/3 which turns out to be 2 not 6

The circumference of a sphere was measured to be 82 cm with a possible error of 0.5 cm. (a) Use differentials to estimate the ma
NeTakaya

Answer:

The Maximum error is  26cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the circumference of a sphere was measured to be 82 cm with a possible error of 0.5 cm

<h3>To find :</h3><h3>(a) Use differentials to estimate the maximum error in the calculated surface area. (Round your answer to the nearest integer.) cm^2</h3>

Given circumference of a sphere=82 cm and possible error =0.5 cm

Error of the surface area is dA

Error of circumference is dC = 0.5 cm

We know that the formula for  Circumference of a sphere is C=2πr units  

Differentiating with respect to r

 dC = 2\pi dr

dr =\frac{dC}{2π}

=\frac{0.5}{2\pi} (∵ dC = 0.5 cm)

<h3>Since Area  A = 4\pi r^2 square units</h3>

Differentiating with respect to r

dA = 8\pi rdr  square units

Since given C = 82 cm.and also C=2πr  we have

r=\frac{C}{2π}

=\frac{82}{2π}

r=\frac{41}{π}

From that dA = 8\pi rdr

Substituting the values of r and dr in the above equation we get

dA = 8\pi (\frac{41}{\pi}) (\frac{0.5}{2\pi})

=4(41)\times (\frac{0.5}{3.14})

=26.1146

dA=26cm^2

∴  Maximum error is  26cm^2

<span>f(x)=2x^2+4x−16. Here's why.

</span>There are lots of things we can do to find which quadratic function is being graphed.

When a function has a positive leading coefficient, both ends when graphed will continue up, and when the leading coefficient is negative, both ends will continue down. Because both ends of the graph are going up, we can rule out <span>f(x) = −4x^2+3x+16 because it has a negative leading coefficient, (-4).

Another simple way to find which function is being graphed is to find the y intercept of each function.
To find the y intercept of a function, substitute 0 into the function.

</span><span>f(x) = 2x^2+4x−16
f(0) = </span><span>2(0)^2+4(0)−16
f(0) = -16.

</span><span>f(x) = 3x^2−5x+16
f(0) = </span><span>3x(0)^2−5(0)+16
f(0) = 16
</span>
<span>f(x) = 5x^2−2x−16
f(0) = 5(0)^2 - 2(0) = -16
f(0) = -16.

The y intercept is the point where the function crosses the y axis. As you can see, the y intercept of the graph is -16. Because of this, we can rule out </span><span>f(x) = 3x^2−5x+16 because its y intercept is positive 16.

Next we can factor each of the two remaining trinomials to determine the x intercepts. I'll explain how to do that if you don't know how.

</span><span>f(x) = 2x^2+4x−16
First, factor out the Greatest Common Denominator (GCF)
</span><span>2x^2+4x−16
The GCF is 2, so divide each term by 2.
</span><span>2x^2+4x−16
2(x^2 + 2x - 8)
Next, multiply the coefficient of the first and last term
1 x -8 = -8
Find a pair of numbers that multiply to give you -8, and add to give you the coefficient of the middle term (2)
Our pair of numbers are -2 and 4, because -2 x 4 = -8 and -2 + 4 = 2.
Replace the middle term with this pair of numbers.

</span><span>2(x^2 + 4x - 2x - 8)
Now separate the polynomial inside the parenthesis into two groups, and factor out the GCF for each group.
</span>
<span>2[x(x + 4) - 2(x + 4)]
As you can see, these two groups have a GCF, which is (x + 4).
Factor that out and you're left with
2[(x - 2)(x + 4)]

Now take each term in parenthesis, set them to 0, and solve for x.

x - 2 = 0
x - 2 + 2 = 0 + 2
x = 2

x + 4 = 0
x + 4 - 4 + 0 - 4
x = -4

The x intercepts are 2 and -4.
Now do the same thing with the other function.

</span><span>f(x)=5x^2−2x−16
f(x) = 5x^2 + 8x - 10x - 16
f(x) = x(5x + 8) - 2(5x + 8)
f(x) = (5x + 8)(x - 2)
</span>
<span>5x + 8 = 0
5x + 8 - 8 = 0 - 8
5x = -8
</span><span>5x / 5 = -8 / 5
x = -1.6

x - 2 = 0
x - 2 + 2 = 0 + 2
x = 2

</span><span>f(x)=2x^2+4x−16's x - intercepts are -4 and 2,
</span><span>f(x)=5x^2−2x−16 's x -intercepts are -1.6 and 2.
As you can see, the graph's x intercepts are -4 and 2.
</span><span>
f(x)=2x^2+4x−16 is the answer.

Hope this helps!!
Let me know if you don't understand anything and I'll try to explain as best I can.
