marta [7]2 years ago

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x = 7 is a solution, substitute x = 7 into the equation and solve for a

4(7) - 2(7 + a) = 8 , that is

28 - 2(7 + a) = 8 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

- 2(7 + a) = - 20 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

7 + a = 10 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

a = 3

Find the period of the function
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

6π

Step-by-step explanation:

The period indicates after which time the sine wave repeats.

You divide 2π by the factor in front of your function variable. This is 1/3 for your function.

So 2π/(1/3) = 6π

Which is the graph of g(x) = 2^x-1 +3
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

See attached picture

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of g(x) = 2^{x-1} +3 is shown below. To find the graph, plug in a few key x values including -2, 1, and 2 then connect.

g(x) = 2^{-2-1} +3 = \frac{1}{8}+3 = 25/8

g(x) = 2^{1-1} +3= 4

g(x) = 2^{2-1} +3 = 5

Solve the quadratic equation 3x^2 + 2x - 4 = 0<br>Give your answers to 2 decimal places​
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

<h2>3x^2+2x−4=0</h2>

Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions

−b±√b^2−4(ac)/2a

Substitute the values

a=3, b=2, and c=−4 into the quadratic formula and solve for x.

−2±√2^2−4⋅(3⋅−4)/2⋅3

Simplify.

x = −1±√13/3

The final answer is the combination of both solutions.

x= −1−√13/3,−1+√13/3

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

x= −1−√13/3,−1+√13/3

<h3>Decimal Form:</h3>

x=0.86851709…,−1.53518375…

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope it is helpful......
