What is the answer to (x^2)+(2x)-(5)=0

a = amount invested at 4%

how much is 4% of "a"? (4/100) * "a", namely 0.04a.

b = amount invested at 5%

how much is 5% of "b"? (5/100) * "b", namely 0.05b.

we know the total amount invested is 5550, so whatever "a" and "b" might be, we know that a + b = 5550.

we also know that the yielded amount in interest is 259, so if we simply add their interest, that'd be 0.04a + 0.05b = 259.

The height of the person that cast a shadow of 1.5 foot is 6 foot.

When the sun is at a certain angle in the sky, a 100 foot building will cast a 25 foot shadow. A person cast a shadow of 1.5 foot at the same time.

Therefore, the height of the person can be found by setting up a proportional relationship between the length of shadow and the actual height of the building and person.

Hence,

let

x = height of the person

Therefore,

100 / 25 = x / 1.5

cross multiply

25x = 100 × 1.5

25x = 150

divide both sides of the equation by 25

x = 150 / 25

x = 6

Therefore,

height of the person  = 6 foot.

4Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities.

Answer:

40 degrees and 140 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you can add x+3x+20 and set that equal to 180. (We can do this because angle x and angle 3x + 20 make a linear pair. Knowing this we can estimate that both angles added together will equal 180)

Let us add x + 3x + 20 = 180 to find x. We can then substitute that into the equation.

[tex]x+3x+20=180 :a\\\\4x+20=180 :b\\\\4x + 20 -20=180-20:c\\\\4x=160:d\\\\\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{160}{4}:e\\\\x=40:f[/tex]

a: So in this part, we have rewritten the equation to make it easier to solve

b:  In this step, you combine the like terms x+3x to get 4x

c: In step c, you are subtracting 20 from both sides to keep constants on one side and variables on the right

d: In this last step the equation has been simplified to make it easier to solve.

e: To isolate x you have to divide both sides by 4, we do this because the coefficient of x is 4 so you divide the equation by 4 to cancel it out.

f: You rewrite and simplify the equation.

Now to find the measure of both angles you substitute x into the equation.

The first angle's value is 40 degrees and the second is 140 degrees.

These are our answers.

Surface area of similar cone is 44π square inches

What does a cone in maths ?

A cone is referred to as a "right cone" when its vertex is higher than the base's centre (i.e., when the angle formed by the vertex, base center, and any base radius is a right angle); otherwise, the word "oblique" is used. A cone is referred to as an elliptic cone when the base is assumed to be an ellipse rather than a circle.

The surface area of a cone is given by:

surface area = πr(r + l)

where r is the radius and l is the slant height.

surface area of original cone = π(3)(3 + 12) = 45π

slant height of similar cone = (6/3)(12) = 24 inches

surface area of similar cone = π(6)(6 + 18) = 144π

ratio of surface areas = surface area of similar cone / surface area of original cone

= (144π) / (45π)

= 3.2

Therefore, The exact surface area of the similar cone is 6 times the surface area of the original cone,

6 × 45π = 144π square inches

Answer:

To calculate the surface area of the cylinder, we need to find the area of the two circular bases and the lateral surface area.

The formula for the circumference of a circle is:

C = 2πr

where C is the circumference and r is the radius. We can rearrange this formula to solve for the radius:

r = C/2π = 513.88/(2 x 3.14) = 81.91 yards

The formula for the area of a circle is:

A = πr^2

where A is the area and r is the radius. We can use this formula to find the area of one of the circular bases:

B = πr^2 = 3.14 x 81.91^2 = 21,237.93 square yards

The formula for the lateral surface area of a cylinder is:

P x h

where P is the perimeter of the base and h is the height. We can use the formula for the circumference to find the perimeter of the base:

P = C = 513.88 yards

Now we can calculate the lateral surface area:

L = P x h = 513.88 x 11 = 5,652.68 square yards

Finally, we can use the formula for the surface area of a cylinder:

SA = 2B + L = 2(21,237.93) + 5,652.68 = 48,128.54 square yards

Therefore, the surface area of the cylinder is approximately 48,128.54 square yards when rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kamal's shape is not a square, because a square is equilateral (equal length in all sides), but his square is 2:1,

i) The length of the arc is approximately 73.148 meters.

ii) The area of the sector is approximately 85.584 square meters.

(i) The length of an arc can be calculated using the formula:

Arc Length = (θ/360) × 2πr

where;

θ = central angle in degrees

r = radius of the circle

π = mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159.

Given that the central angle is 85° and the radius is 7 meters, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Arc Length = (85/360) × 2π × 7

= (17/72) × 2 × 3.14159 × 7

≈ 1.7454 × 6.28318 × 7

Domain: [tex](-\infty,0) \cup (0,13) \cup (13,\infty)[/tex]

=================================================

Explanation:

Let's find the function composition.

The notation [tex](f \circ g)(\text{x})[/tex] is the same as [tex]f(g(\text{x}))[/tex]

[tex]f(\text{x}) = \frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}-1}\\\\\\f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{g(\text{x})}{g(\text{x})-1}\\\\\\f(g(\text{x})) = g(\text{x}) \div \Big( g(\text{x}) - 1\Big)\\\\\\[/tex]

Then,

[tex]f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{13}{\text{x}} \div \left(\frac{13}{\text{x}}-1}\right)\\\\\\f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{13}{\text{x}} \div \left(\frac{13}{\text{x}}-\frac{\text{x}}{\text{x}}\right)\\\\\\f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{13}{\text{x}} \div \frac{13-\text{x}}{\text{x}}\\\\\\f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{13}{\text{x}} * \frac{\text{x}}{13-\text{x}}\\\\\\f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{13}{13-\text{x}}\\\\\\[/tex]

-----------------

Now let's find the domain.

If we plugged x = 0 into g(x), then we get a division by zero error.

This means we must exclude this value from the domain.

For similar reasoning, we must exclude x = 13 because we get a division by zero error in [tex]f(g(\text{x})) = \frac{13}{13-\text{x}}[/tex]

We could have any other real number to be plugged in for x.

Here's what the domain looks like in interval notation.

We effectively poke holes at 0 and 13 on the number line.

About 120 students have travel times within the quoted interquartile range.

The interquartile range (IQR) represents the range of the middle 50% of a set of data, which is the difference between the third quartile (Q3) and the first quartile (Q1).

Assuming that the travel times are normally distributed and that we have information on the quartiles, we can use the formula:

IQR = Q3 - Q1

To find the number of students whose travel times fall within the interquartile range, we need to know the values of Q1 and Q3.

Since the IQR is 32 minutes:

32 = Q3 - Q1

We also know that the total number of students in Year 12 is 240. Assuming that all students have reported their travel times, we can use the interquartile range to estimate the proportion of students whose travel times fall within this range.

If the interquartile range covers the middle 50% of the data, then each quartile should cover 25% of the data. Therefore, we can estimate that the number of students whose travel times fall within the interquartile range is:

Number of students = 240 x 0.50 = 120

Therefore, we estimate that 120 of the 240 Year 12 students have travel times within the interquartile range of 32 minutes.

To find the volume of the solid generated by revolving the region enclosed by the curves y = √(cos(x)), y = e^x and x = pi/2 around the x-axis, we can use the method of cylindrical shells.

Consider a thin vertical strip of width dx at a distance x from the y-axis. The height of this strip is the difference between the y-coordinates of the two curves:

h = e^x - √(cos(x))

The circumference of the shell is given by 2πx since the strip is at a distance x from the y-axis. Therefore, the volume of the shell is given by:

dV = 2πx * h * dx

= 2πx * (e^x - √(cos(x))) * dx

To find the total volume of the solid, we need to integrate this expression from x=0 to x=pi/2:

V = ∫[0, pi/2] 2πx * (e^x - √(cos(x))) dx

This integral can be evaluated using integration by substitution. Let u = cos(x), then du/dx = -sin(x) and dx = du/-sin(x). Using this substitution, the integral becomes:

V = ∫[1, 0] 2π * (-ln(u)/sin(x)) * (e^x - √(u)) dx

Integrating this expression with respect to x from x=0 to x=pi/2, we get:

V = 2π * [e^(pi/2) - 1 - (4/3) * (1 - sqrt(2))]

Therefore, the volume of the solid is approximately 27.838 cubic units (rounded to three decimal places).

Therefore, the range of the clients' ages is:

Max age - Min age = 89 - 8 = 81

So the range of the clients' ages is 81.

The total amount of interior angles featured on a polygon with 'n' sides can be determined through the equation (n-2)*180 degrees. This formula applies to all types of polygons, such as triangles.

In order to calculate the sum of each individual angle in the polygon, we must consider the total degree measure formed within each triangle. Every triangle consists of three different sized interior angles that together form an count of 180 degrees.

For instance, when a polygon containing 'n' sides is divided into separate triangles by interconnecting certain vertices, the overall number of triangles produced can be worked out using the equation (n-1).
