Answer:

  • 4 and 6 or -6 and -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers are 2x and 2x + 2.

<u>We have:</u>

  • (2x + 2x + 2)² = (2x)² + (2x + 2)² + 48
  • 4(2x + 1)² = 4x² + 4(x + 1)² + 48
  • (2x + 1)² = x² + (x + 1)² + 12
  • 4x² + 4x + 1 = x² + x² + 2x + 1 + 12
  • 2x² + 2x - 12 = 0
  • x² + x - 6 = 0
  • (x - 2)(x + 3) = 0
  • x = 2, x = -3

<u>The numbers are:</u>

  • 4 and 6 or - 6 and - 4

In general, the intercept of the function F(X) = a•b^x is the point
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

(0,a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = ab^x

Required

Determine the intercept

The intercept is at point: x = 0

So, we have:

f(0) = ab^0

f(0) = a*1

f(0) = a

So, the intercept is at point (0,a)

<em>None of the options is true</em>

Find the unit vector in the direction of u = (-3,2).
DENIUS [597]
\bf \textit{unit vector for }(a,b)\implies \left( \cfrac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}~~,~~\cfrac{b}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}} \right)\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;(-3,2)\qquad \stackrel{unit~vector}{\implies }\qquad \left( \cfrac{-3}{\sqrt{(-3)^2+2^2}}~~,~~\cfrac{2}{\sqrt{(-3)^2+2^2}} \right)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\left( -\cfrac{3}{\sqrt{13}}~~,~~ \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\right)\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf \textit{and now let's \underline{rationalize} the denominator for each}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;-\cfrac{3}{\sqrt{13}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{13}}\implies -\cfrac{3\sqrt{13}}{13} \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad  \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{13}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{13}}{\sqrt{13}}\implies \cfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{and written in \underline{ai+bj form}}\qquad -\cfrac{3\sqrt{13}}{13}i~~~~+~~~~\cfrac{2\sqrt{13}}{13}j

Write the standard equation of the circle with the given center and passes through the given point. Center (7,-2); Point= (1,-6)
vodomira [7]

Answer:

(x - 7)² + (y + 2)² = (2√13)²

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know that the center is at (7, -2), but must find the radius.  The radius is the distance between the points (7, -2) and (1, -6):

r = √ [6² + 4²] ) = √(36 + 16) = √52 = √4√13 = 2√13.

Then the desired equation is (x - 7)² + (y + 2)² = (2√13)²
