Answer:

Q (2.5, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A (1, -5), C = (10, 1), find Q (x, y), so that AQ:QC = 1:5

AQ = (x - 1, y + 5)

QC = (10 - x, 1 - y)

AQ:QC = 1:5

so 5*AQ = QC

5(x - 1) = (10 - x)

5(y + 5) = 1 - y

Solve them:

5x - 5 = 10 - x

6x = 15

x = 15/6 = 2.5

5y + 25 = 1 - y

6y = -24

y = -24/6 = -4

Then answer is Q (2.5, -4)

If f(x) = 2x2 and g(x)= x2 + 2x, which expression represents f(g(x))?
andre [41]

Answer:

f(g(x)) = 2(x^2 + 2x)^2

f(g(x)) = 2x^4 + 8x^3 + 8x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

f(x) = 2x^2

g(x) = x^2 + 2x

To derive the expression for f(g(x)), we will substitute x in f(x) with g(x).

f(g(x)) = 2(g(x))^2

f(g(x)) = 2(x^2 + 2x)^2

Expanding the equation;

f(g(x)) = 2(x^2 + 2x)(x^2 + 2x)

f(g(x)) = 2(x^4 + 2x^3 + 2x^3 + 4x^2)

f(g(x)) = 2(x^4 + 4x^3 + 4x^2)

f(g(x)) = 2x^4 + 8x^3 + 8x^2

Hope this helps...

In triangle JKL, if angle J is seven less than angle L and angle K is 21 less than twice angle L, find the measure of each angle
saul85 [17]

Answer:

L = 52°

J = 45°

K = 83°

Step-by-step explanation:

J = L - 7

K = 2L - 21

J + K + L = 180°

∴ (L - 7) + (2L - 21) + L = 180

4L - 28 = 180

4L = 208

L = 52°

J = 52 - 7 = 45°

K = 2 x 52 - 21 = 83°

Y = t*e^(-t/2)

y' = t' [e^(-t/2)] + t [e^(-t/2)]' = e^(-t/2) + t[e^(-t/2)][-1/2]=

y' = [e^(-t/2)] [1 - t/2] = (1/2)[e^(-t/2)] [2 - t] = - (1/2) [e^-t/2)] [t -2]
