Find the difference 4/x^2+5

Alex777 [14]

The best thing to do is to rewrite the fractions as decimals
-2/3 is approx. equal to -0.6666667
So a little past half way (to the left) between -1 and 0
1 1/5 is 1.5 so that is right between 1 and 2

Hope this helps :)

A pile of newspaper was 17 3/4 inches high. Each consecutive week for the next 5 weeks the height of pile increase by 8 7/12 inc

Murljashka [212]

Answer: the height in inches, of the pile after 3 weeks is 34 11/12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Each consecutive week for the next 5 weeks the height of pile increase by 8 7/12 inches. Converting 8 7/12 inches to improper fraction, it becomes 103/12 inches. The height is increasing in an arithmetic progression. The formula for determining the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

d represents the common difference.

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

From the information given,

a = 17 3/4= 71/4 inches

d = 103/12 inches

n = 3 weeks

the height in inches, of the pile after 3 weeks, T3. Therefore,

T3 = 71/4 + (3 - 1)103/12

T3 = 71/4 + 2 × 103/12 = 71/4 + 103/6

T3 = 419/12 inches = 34 11/12 inches

Which statement is true regarding the graphed functions? A) f(4)=g(4) B) f(4)=g(-2) C) f(2)=g(-2) D) f(-2)=g(-2)

fomenos

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

If the two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are lying of the line.

Slope of the line represented by the function 'f' = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Two points are lying on the line are (-2, 4) and (0, -2).

Slope of the line passing through these points 'm' = $\frac{4+2}{-2-0}$

m = -3

Y-intercept of the line 'b' = -2 [From the graph]

Therefore, equation of the function will be,

f(x) = (-3)x - 2

f(x) = -3x - 2

Similarly, for other function represented by the line in red,

Slope of the line passing through (-6, 0) and (0, 6) = $\frac{6-0}{0+6}$

m' = 1

Y-intercept of g(x) = 5 [From the graph]

Equation that represents the function g(x) = 1.x + 5

g(x) = x + 5

For g(x) = f(x)

-3x - 2 = x + 6

-3x - x = 2 + 6

-4x = 8

x = -2

Therefore, for x = -2 both the functions will have the value.

f(-2) = g(-2)

Option (D) will be the answer.

If the hypothesis is false, an argument cannot be valid, how would you explain this?

Elodia [21]

If the hypothesis was wrong, all you simply have to do is state the hypothesis was wrong and why you think it was, and add what you can do to change it or to make it better so next time it will be right. Just state what you did and how you got your answer.

I hope that helps!
