Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

At x = -2 the graph of this polynomial will touch the x-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the behavior difference between power functions of even and odd power. Odd powers are associated with the crossing of the x-axis, while even powers are associated with "touching" of the x axis.

in this cases, since they give you the function in factor form, the actual roots (x-values where the function adopts value zero) of the function are evident :

[tex]f(x)=(x-5)^3\, (x+2)^2[/tex]

It has a root at x = 5 [notice that at such x-value the factor (x-5) becomes zero], and this root is of multiplicity "3" (given by the power associated with the binomial factor for this root)

and has another root at x = -2  [notice that at such x-value the factor (x+2) becomes zero], and this root is of multiplicity "2" (given by the power associated with the binomial factor for it)

It is just the second root analyzed the one that shows an even power (2) associated to its binomial factor, and therefore it is at x= -2 that the graph of this function will show as "touching" the x axis.

Point D is located on the segment CE. IF CD = 24 and DE = x and CE - 5x, what is the measure of segment CE?

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

If point D is located on the segment CE, then point C, D and E lies on the same line i.e they are collinear. Mathematically, CD+DE = CE

Given CD = 24 and DE = x and CE = 5x, on substituting this values in the equation we have;

[tex]24+x = 5x\\5x-x = 24\\4x = 24\\x = 24/4\\x = 6[/tex]

Since CE = 5x, CE = 5(6) = 30

The measure of segment CE is 30

HELP I will give brainliest to make the perfect shade of orange cake frosting, Mya needs 8 drops of yellow food coloring for every 12 drops of red food coloring. If she adds 32 drops of yellow food coloring to her frosting, how many drops of red food coloring should she add

Answers

She will need 48 drops of red food coloring

Answer: 48 red drops

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of yellow food drops to red food drops is 8:12

8:12 simplifies to 2:3

2:3 = 2/5:3/5

2x/5 = 32 = # of yellow drops (where x is the total # of drops)

2x/5 = 32

2x = 160

x = 80

Since there are 80 total drops and 32 yellow drops, there must be 48 red drops (80-32=48)

what is the sign of -a^4/3 when a is less than zero

A positive

B negative

C zero

Answers

Answer: B. Negative

Reasoning:

'a' is less than 0, so we write a < 0

Since a < 0, this means a^4 > 0. Raising a negative to an even exponent will make the result positive. Example: (-2)^4 = 16

Applying the cube root to some positive number leads to some other positive number.

So far we see that the expression    a^(4/3)   is positive

The final result however is negative because the negative out front flips things from positive to negative.

It turns out it doesn't matter if 'a' is positive or negative. As long as 'a' is nonzero, then   -a^(4/3)   is negative. If a = 0, then the whole thing is 0.

people. They are charging adults $6 per plate, and students only have to pay $2 per plate.
How many adults and children need to buy a plate in order for them to exactly meet their
goal?​

Answers

Answer: 60 kids, 180 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of children and y be the number of adults eating.

If they have 240 people eating then x+y=240.

If they have to fundraise 1200 then 2x+6y=1200.

Solving the system of equations, we can multiply the first equation by 2 to get 2x+2y=480. Then subtract the two equations and get -4y=-720, so y=180. Substitute y=180 back in to get x=60.

Angle measure two is equal to 75º and Angle measure one is equal to 105º

I know this because angle one is alternate exterior angle with angle 7 and angle seven forms a staight line with angle 75 so to find angle 7 you have to do 180-75 and that would equal 105.

for angle two it is interior angles with angle 75 so this means that are congruent angles which means they both have the same measure

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4(x + 2) = 2x + 10[/tex]

Distribute 4(x+2).

[tex]4x+8 = 2x + 10[/tex]

Subtract 2x and 8 from both sides.

[tex]4x-2x=10-8[/tex]

[tex]2x=2[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) = 2x + 10

You start by expanding 4(x +2)

i.e. 4x + 8 = 2x + 10

Then, subtract 2x from both sides of the equation

4x + 8 - 2x = 2x + 10 - 2x

4x - 2x + 8 = 2x - 2x + 10

2x + 8 = 10

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation

i.e. 2x +8 - 8 = 10 - 8

2x = 2

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x above(which is 2)

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{2}{2}[/tex]

x = 1

b) C

Step-by-step explanation:

Brainliest please?

For a) it only tells you all the angles, which makes them similar triangles, but none of the sides are given, so it cannot be determined whether they are congruent.

For b) it is not to scale and using a little subtraction, you can quickly use the fact that there are 180 degrees in a triangle, you can determine that the 2 triangles have the same angles, with the side with 9.2 cm between 58 and 68 degree vertices on both triangles, making the 2 triangles congruent by ASA.

complete the square to solve the equation below (check all that apply)

Answers

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to create a perfect square. To make x^2+bx+c into a perfect square, c has to be (b/2)^2. In this case, b is -10. so, c has to be (-10/2)^2, which is 25. To make the left hand side 25, we would have to add 30 to both sides.

This leads to a new equation:

x^2 - 10x + 25 = 9+30

x^2 - 10x + 25 = 39

Now, we can change the left hand side to a perfect square.

(x-5)^2 = 39. (the -5 is b/2)

Then we square root both sides;

x-5 = +/- sqrt39. (When you square root an expression, remember that you need to include both the positive AND negative)

x = 5-sqrt39 or 5+sqrt39
