Answer:

  • x = 8
  • 12 = BD
  • 23 = BE
  • 13 = CE

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>We know that:</u>

  • BD = 2x - 4
  • DE = 2x - 3 - 2
  • BE = 3x - 1
  • CE = 2x - 3

<u>Solution:</u>

  • (2x - 4) + (2x - 3 - 2) = 3x - 1
  • => 2x - 4 + 2x - 3 - 2 = 3x - 1
  • => 4x - 9 = 3x - 1
  • => 4x - 3x = 9 - 1
  • => x = 8
  • => 2x - 4 = BD
  • => 2(8) - 4 = BD
  • => 16 - 4 = BD
  • => 12 = BD
  • => 3x - 1 = BE
  • => 3(8) - 1 = BE
  • => 24 - 1 = BE
  • => 23 = BE
  • => 2x - 3 = CE
  • => 2(8) - 3 = CE
  • => 16 - 3 = CE
  • => 13 = CE

Hence, the answers are:

  • x = 8
  • 12 = BD
  • 23 = BE
  • 13 = CE

Find the inverse of the function y = x^2 + 12x
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

y=x\\

x=y^{2} + 12y\\

y^{2} + 12y -x = 0\\

Delta = (12^{2}) - 4.1.(-x) = 144 +4X = 36.(4+x)

\sqrt{Delta} = 6 . \sqrt{(4+x)} \\

y' = \frac{-12 + 6.(\sqrt{(4+x)}}{2} = -6 + 3.\sqrt{(4+x)}\\

y" = -6 - 3.\sqrt{(4+x)}\\\\

y' = 3.\sqrt{(4+x)} - 6\\

y''= -3.\sqrt{(4+x)} - 6\\

Passes through (1, -3), slope = -1
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

The needed line equation is :  x + y + 2 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope m of the given line equation = -1

The points through which the line passes  is (1,-3).

Now,as we know:

The POINT SLOPE form of the equation with point (x0,y0) is given as:

y - y0 = m (x-x0)

So, the equation if line q=with m = -1 and (x0,y0) = (1,-3) is given as

y  - (-3)  = -1( x  - 1)  

or, y + 3 = 1 -x

or, x + y + 2 = 0

Hence, the needed line equation is :  x + y + 2 = 0

Solve missing side/angle, number 7 please
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

22.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know the base is 36 ft and we want to know the height.  We know the angle of elevation

AC is you picture is 36 and we are looking for BC

We know angle A is 25

We will use tangent

tan A = opposite side/ adjacent side

tan A = BC/AC

tan 25 = BC/36

Multiply each side by 36

36 tan 25 = BC

16.78707569 = BC

But we know that he is 5.5 ft tall so the flagpole  is 5.5 ft taller than BC

The triangle is from his eyes to the pole

Add 5.5 to BC to find

the height of the flagpole is BC +5.5

                                                16.787 +5.5

                                                 22.28707569

To the nearest tenth

The flagpole is 22.3 ft
