The graph of the function f(x) is shown.
1 answer:
Answer:
x = 2
x = -1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is of function f(x) = x²
Therefore, to find where the function intersects with y = 0.5x + 3,
equal the functions and solve for x:
⇒ x² = 0.5x + 3
⇒ x² - 0.5x - 3 = 0
Multiply both sides by 2:
⇒ 2x² - x - 6 = 0
Factor:
⇒ 2x² - 4x + 3x - 6 = 0
⇒ 2x(x - 2) + 3(x - 2) = 0
⇒ (x - 2)(2x + 3) = 0
Therefore:
(x - 2) = 0 ⇒ x = 2
(2x + 3) = 0 ⇒ x = -1.5

To find the volume of a dome, you would have to find the volume of the sphere, theoretically, and then divide it by two. To calculate the volume, we would use the formula 4/3 
. The radius (r) in this case is half of the diameter which is 14. 4 x 3.14 (pi) = 12.56. 12.56 x 14 x 14 x 14 (2744) = 34464.64. If we divide this number by 3, we get 11488.2133. If we divide this by 2 (to get the dome), we get 5744.10656. Which would be 5744.1 rounded to the nearest tenth.
