Answer:

Problem(1):     [tex]21[/tex]

Problem(2):     Side length = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]    Area = [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

Problem(3):     Boys = [tex]320[/tex]     Girls = [tex]240[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(Notes steps are cut from this answer so that it isn't too long)

1. Problem (1)

One is given the following information:

[tex]x+\frac{1}{x}=5[/tex][tex](x-\frac{1}{x})^2[/tex]

The most logical first step is to solve for the value of (x). One can solve for the numerical value of (x) with the first equation.

[tex]x+\frac{1}{x}=5[/tex]

Multiply the entire equation by (x),

[tex]x^2+1=5x[/tex]

Inverse operations put the equation in the general format of a quadratic equation. The general format of a quadratic equation is as follows,

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

Put the given equation in this format,

[tex]x^2-5x+1=0[/tex]

Now use the quadratic formula to solve for the value of (x). The quadratic formula uses the coefficients of the terms in a quadratic equation to find the roots of the equation. The quadratic formula is as follows,

[tex]\frac{-b(+-)\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Use the coefficients of the terms in the given quadratic equation in the formal, then simplify to solve for solutions of the given equation,

[tex]\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]\frac{-(-5)(+-)\sqrt{(-5)^2-4(1)(1)}}{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5(+-)\sqrt{21}}{2}[/tex]

Now substitute these values into the equation and simplify, even though there are two values of (x), there will only be one solution,

[tex]((\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{1}{\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}})^2[/tex]                                      [tex]((\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{1}{\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}})^2[/tex]  

[tex](\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{2}{5+\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]                                      [tex](\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}-\frac{2}{5-\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]

Convert to a common denominator,

[tex](\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{2}*\frac{5+\sqrt{21}}{5+\sqrt{21}}-\frac{2}{5+\sqrt{21}}*\frac{2}{2})^2[/tex]                   [tex](\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{2}*\frac{5-\sqrt{21}}{5-\sqrt{21}}-\frac{2}{5-\sqrt{21}}*\frac{2}{2})^2[/tex]

[tex](\frac{(5+\sqrt{21})^2-4}{2(5+\sqrt{21})})^2[/tex]                                           [tex](\frac{(5-\sqrt{21})^2-4}{2(5-\sqrt{21})})^2[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex](\frac{25+10\sqrt{21}+21-4}{10+2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]                                     [tex](\frac{25-10\sqrt{21}+21-4}{10-2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]

[tex](\frac{42+10\sqrt{21}}{10+2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]                                              [tex](\frac{42-10\sqrt{21}}{10-2\sqrt{21}})^2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1764+840\sqrt{21}+2100}{100+40\sqrt{21}+84}[/tex]                                      [tex]\frac{1764-840\sqrt{21}+2100}{100-40\sqrt{21}+84}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3864+840\sqrt{21}}{184+40\sqrt{21}}[/tex]                                               [tex]\frac{3864-840\sqrt{21}}{184-40\sqrt{21}}[/tex]

[tex]21[/tex]                                                            

2. Problem (2)

All four sides of a square are congruent (have the same measure), thus dividing the perimeter of a square by (4) will yield the side length of the square,

[tex]Perimeter\ of\ the\ square: 4\\Side\ length: \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The area is the two-dimensional space that a figure takes up, in the case of a square, the area is the side length times itself:

[tex]A=(\frac{1}{4})^2=\frac{1}{16}[/tex]

3. Problem (3)

Let (x) represent the amount by which the ratio of boys to girls was scaled down. Assuming that these are the only two genders in the school, one can state that the sum ratio coefficients times the scaling value for both boys and girls, will equal the total number of people in the school. Thus, one can form the following equation and solve it with inverse operations and simplification,

[tex]boys + girl = total\ students\\4x + 3x = 560\\7x = 560\\x = 80[/tex]

Now substitute this into the expression for the two genders in this scenario, respectively, to solve for the actual number of students of that gender,

Boys,                         Girls,

[tex]4(x)[/tex]                             [tex]3(x)[/tex]

[tex]4(80)[/tex]                           [tex]3(80)[/tex]

[tex]320[/tex]                              [tex]240[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

This equations are quadratic equations, which is on standard form,

[tex] {ax}^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

where a is the leading coefficient, b is the second coefficient, and c is the constant.

Both a and b are in quadratic equation so we need to find the constant separately.

Both sides are equal to zero so we can just subtract the terms not containing a or b in them to the opposite side.

[tex] {x}^{2} - 4 x + a = 0[/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} + a = 4x[/tex]

[tex]a = - {x}^{2} + 4x[/tex]

For b,

[tex]2 {x}^{2} - 6x + b + 7 = 0[/tex]

[tex] - 6x + b + 7 = - 2 {x}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]b + 7 = - 2 {x}^{2} + 6x[/tex]

[tex]b = - 2 {x}^{2} + 6x - 7[/tex]

A line is parallel to the x-axis and passes through the point (-5,4)
What is the equation of that line, the slope of that line, and what would be the slope of a line perpendicular to that given line?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

y = 4slope: 0slope of perpendicular: undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-axis is a horizontal line. As such, it has a slope of zero. The equation of a horizontal line is ...

  y = constant

__

For the line through (-5, 4), the constant must match the y-coordinate: 4. The equation is ...

  y = 4

As we said above, the slope of that horizontal line is zero.

The perpendicular line will be a vertical line of the form x=constant. The slope of a vertical line is undefined.

The function f(x)=x^2+2 is not one to one. Determine a restricted domain that makes it one to one and find the inverse function

Answers

Answer:

Hope it helped

Step-by-step explanation:

The restricted domain that makes the given function one to one is (-∞,0] or [0.∞) and the inverse function  would be f⁻¹ (x) = [tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex] if we restrict the domain of original function to [0.∞) and the inverse function would be  f⁻¹ (x) = -[tex]\sqrt{x-1}[/tex] if we restrict the domain to (-∞,0] .

What is inverse of a function?

An inverse function or an anti function is defined as a function, which can reverse into another function.

Now the given quadtratic function is,

f(x) = x² + 2

Now vertex of the given quadratic function is (0,2)

Thus the range of the function is [2,∞)

If we restrict the domain of this function to either (-∞,0} or [0.∞), it will become one to one function.

Now the inverse function is given as,

y = x² + 2

Upon interchanging x and y, we get:

x = y² + 2

⇒ y² = x - 2

or, y = ±[tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex]

Hence, the inverse function would be f⁻¹ (x) = [tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex] if we restrict the domain of original function to [0.∞) and the inverse function would be  f⁻¹ (x) = -[tex]\sqrt{x-1}[/tex] if we restrict the domain to (-∞,0] .

Thus, the restricted domain that makes the given function one to one is (-∞,0] or [0.∞) and the inverse function  would be f⁻¹ (x) = [tex]\sqrt{x-2}[/tex] if we restrict the domain of original function to [0.∞) and the inverse function would be  f⁻¹ (x) = -[tex]\sqrt{x-1}[/tex] if we restrict the domain to (-∞,0] .

"It is a part of a line that has a fixed starting point but no end point."

For given example,

We have been given a part of a line AB.

The starting point is A and the end point is B.

We know, one of the end of the ray is denoted by arrow.

Since both the ends of given figure are fixed, it is not ray.

AB is called as line segment.

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a simple formula for finding the answer to problems like these. You read it out and put your information in order and use a variable (such as x) in place of the number.

4 * x - 7 = 9

Then solve by getting your variable alone on one side.

136 accounts for one rectangular prism.

Since you have 3 multiply 136 by 3 which would leave you with 408

Answer:

280 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite faces are congruent , then surface area (SA ) is

SA = top/ base + front/ back + 2 sides

note for the front/ back and 2 sides we have 3 + 3 + 3 = 9 in

   SA  = 2(8 × 4) + 2(8 × 9) + 2(4 × 9)

         = 2 × 32 + 2 × 72 + 2 × 36

        = 64 + 144 + 72

Hayden had 2 1/2 gallons of water in his watering can. The seed packet said to use 1/4 of a gallon for peppers and 5/8 of a gallon for tomatoes. Hayden then used some of the water for lettuce. If Hayden had 3/4 gallons of water left over, about how much water did he use for lettuce?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 + 5/8 = 2/8 + 5/8 = 7/8

= amount used for pepper and tomatoes

2 1/2 - 3/4 = 5/2-3/4 = 10/4 -3/4 = 7/4
