Solve the following equations;- x - 9 /√x + 3 =1

fgiga [73]

Answer:

13 , 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

A equation is given to us and we need to find out the value of x . The given equation to us is ,

$\sf\implies \dfrac{ x -9}{\sqrt{x+3}}= 1$

Cross multiply ,

$\sf\implies x - 9 =\sqrt{ x +3}$

Squaring both sides ,

$\sf\implies (x - 9)^2 = x + 3$

Simplify the whole square ,

$\sf\implies x^2+9^2-2.9.x = x +3 \\$

$\sf\implies x^2+81 - 18x = x -3$

Add 3 and subtract x on both sides ,

$\sf\implies x^2 -18x-x +81-3=0$

Simplify ,

$\sf\implies x^2 -19x +78=0$

Split the middle term of the quadratic equation,

$\sf\implies x^2-13x-6x+78=0$

Take out common ,

$\sf\implies x( x -13)-6(x-13)=0$

Take out ( x -13 ) as common ,

$\sf\implies ( x -13)(x-6)=0$

Equate both factors to 0 ,

$\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\sf x = 13,6}}$

Hence the value of x is 13 or 6 .

the scale on a map is stated as 1:250000 two villages are 9 cm apart on the map how far from each other are the two villages in

Karolina [17]

Answer:

22.5 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale drawing is

$1:250,000$

That means

1 unit on a map represent 250,000 units in the actual

1 cm on a map represent 250,000 cm in the actual

1 cm on a map represent 2,500 m in the actual

1 cm on a map represent 2,5 km in the actual

therefore

using proportion

Find out how much represent 9 cm apart on the map

$\frac{1}{2.5}\ \frac{cm}{km}=\frac{9}{x}\ \frac{cm}{km}\\\\x=9(2.5)\\\\x=22.5\ km$

According to the table, which ordered pair is a local minimum of the function, f(x)?

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a table which gives the order pair of x and y for a function f(x)

We have to find the local minimum of the function f(x)

We have from the table the values of different f(x)

Of all we find the least value is -15 and for this x value is -2 or +2

Hence f(x) has minimum at two points

(-2,-15) and (2,-15)

Out of 4 options given we find that (2,-15) appears in IV option

Hence option D is right answer

The question is below

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

£59.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem, we must:

Solve for the length of the fence (aka height)
Find the area of the lawn (trapezoid)
Find the number of cans needed
Find the price of all the cans

Area of a trapezoid, and why the formula works:

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides known as bases. The other two sides are known as the legs.

To find the area of a trapezoid, we use the formula:

$\frac{B_1 + B_2}{2}* h$

This works because if we used the formula, we would be duplicating the trapezoid to form a rectangle with a side length of B1 + B2, and a height of h. Since the trapezoid is half of that, we divide by 2.

Solve for height:

The height is unknown but can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem.

The difference between the bases is the length of the bottom leg of the right triangle, and 17 is the hypotenuse.

Difference = 20 - 12 = 8

Hypotenuse = 17

8² + fence² = 17²
64 + fence² = 289
225 = fence²
fence = 15

The height is 15

Solve for area:

Now we can solve for the area.

$A = \frac{B_1 + B_2}{2} * h$
$A = \frac{12 + 20}{2} * 15$
$A = \frac{32}{2} * 15$
$A = 16 * 15 = 240$

The area is 240

Cans:

The area of the lawn is 240 square meters. Each can cover 100 square meters.

240 ÷ 100 = 2.4

Since we can't use part of a can, we round up to three whole cans.

The price of 3 cans :

3 * 19.75
59.25

£59.25

The Pythagorean Theorem:

The Pythagorean theorem is a very common geometry formula used to find the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle, given the lengths of the two other bases.

The formula is : $a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

a is a leg
b is a leg
c is the hypotenuse
