Answer:

21+/-sqrt(253)=x

So one value for x is 21+sqrt(253)

and another is 21-sqrt(253)

Problem:

Given (21,7) and (x,1), find all x such that the distance between these two points is 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

Change in x is x-21

Change in y is 7-1=6

distance^2=(change in x)^2+(change in y)^2

17^2=(x-21)^2+(6)^2

289=(x-21)^2+36

Subtract 36 on both sides:

289-36=(x-21)^2

253=(x-21)^2

Take square root of both sides:

+/-sqrt(253)=x-21

Add 21 on both sides:

21+/-sqrt(253)=x

zhuklara [117]

As per the problem,

Rhonda bought a new laptop for $800.

The laptop depreciates, or loses, 20% of its value each year.

The value of the laptop at a later time can be found using the formula

$A=P(1-r)^t.....(1)$

Here we have

P=$800

r=20%=0.20

t=2 years

Substitute the values in equation (1) we get

$A=800(1-0.2)^2\\ \\ \Rightarrow A=800(0.8)^2\\ \\ \Rightarrow A=800*0.64\\ \\ \Rightarrow A=512\\$

The laptop be worth in two years will be $512.

Answer:

x1=-4/5, x2=18/5 and x3=7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&-3&-5\\3&1&2&4\\2&2&1&7\end{array}\right]$

you can do linear combination between the rows:

2nd row=R2-3R1 and 3th row=R3-2R1

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&-3&-5\\0&1&11&19\\0&2&7&17\end{array}\right]$

3th row=(3R2-R3)/15

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&-3&-5\\0&1&11&19\\0&0&1&\frac{7}{5} \end{array}\right]$

1st row=R1+3R3 and R2-11R3

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}1&0&0&-4/5 \\0&1&0&18/5 \\0&0&1&7/5\end{array}\right]$

x1=-4/5, x2=18/5 and x3=7/5

Algebra 2 inverse functions

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

The inverse function is:

{(1,8), (2,-1), (5,10), (-3,-3)}

Step-by-step explanation:

When a function is represented in the form of ordered pairs, the first element of each ordered pair is the input and the second element in each ordered pair is the output. In the inverse of a function the input becomes output and the output becomes input.

Given function is:

{(8,1), (-1,2), (10,5), (-3,-3)}

Reversing the order of elements of ordered pairs will given us the inverse function.

The inverse function is:

{(1,8), (2,-1), (5,10), (-3,-3)}
