Dividing the segments and finding the lengths, it is found that the distance between the two cities is of 130 miles.
--------------------------------
We want to find the distance between cities a and d.Due to the cities along the highway, the distance is given by:[tex]ad = ab + bc + cd[/tex]
--------------------------------
The distance from city a to city b is 5 times the distance from city b to city c, and thus:[tex]ab = 5bc[/tex]
In terms of x, [tex]bc = x, ab = 5x[/tex]
--------------------------------
The distance from city b to city c is 2 times the distance from city c to city d, and thus:[tex]bc = 2cd[/tex]
In terms of x, [tex]cd = \frac{x}{2}[/tex]
--------------------------------
The distance between city d and city c is 10 miles, thus:[tex]\frac{x}{2} = 10[/tex]
[tex]x = 20[/tex]
--------------------------------
The other distances are:[tex]bc = x = 20[/tex]
[tex]ab = 5x = 5(20) = 100[/tex]
--------------------------------
The distance between cities a and d is:[tex]ad = ab + bc + cd = 100 + 20 + 10 = 130[/tex]
The distance between the two cities is of 130 miles.

Determine the domain and range of the polynomial function
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(b) domain: all reals; range: y ≤ 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain of any polynomial function is always "all real numbers." There are no values of the variable for which a polynomial is undefined.
The range of a polynomial will depend on its degree and the sign of the leading coefficient. Here, the degree is even, so the range has a limit. The leading coefficient is negative, so that limit is a maximum.
Only one answer choice has these characteristics:
domain: all real numbers; range: y ≤ 6
__
The graph confirms this choice of range.

11x(24x·x -6) . . . . . . division inside parentheses

Additional comment
The appearance of the expression in parentheses may induce you to evaluate it as (96x)÷(4x) = 24. The order of operations requires that you do the division before the multiplication, left to right, so this must be evaluated as ...
((96x)÷4)x = 24x²
You need to be very careful with division and with exponents to make sure to follow the Order of Operations exactly. If you have an appropriate calculator, it will do that automatically. For example, if you tell your calculator ...

Answer:
x = 5.5 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the 3 sides, so:-
x + x + 3 + 2x + 5 = 30
4x + 8 = 30
4x = 22
x = 5.5.

Find the nth term for the following sequences, 100,96,90,82,72.(an^2+bn+c)
9514 1404 393
Answer:
t(n) = -n^2 -n +102
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the first 3 terms to find a, b, c.
a(1)^2 +b(1) +c = 100
a(2)^2 +b(2) +c = 96
a(3)^2 +b(3) +c = 90
Subtract the first equation from the other two:
3a +b = -4 . . . . . . [eq4]
8a +2b = -10 . . . . [eq5]
[eq5] can be reduced to
4a +b = -5 . . . . . . [eq6]
Subtracting [eq4] from [eq6] gives ...
(4a +b) -(3a +b) = (-5) -(-4)
a = -1 . . . . . . . . simplify
Filling that into [eq4], we get
3(-1) +b = -4
b = -1 . . . . . . . add 3
Putting the values for 'a' and 'b' into the first equation gives ...
-1 +-1 +c = 100
c = 102
Then the n-th term t(n) of the sequence is ...
t(n) = -n^2 -n +102

PLEASE HELP!!! How does the multiplicity of a zero affect the graph of the polynomial function?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
2, 4, 61crossStep-by-step explanation:
Consider a zero at x=1.
If it has multiplicity 1, the corresponding factor is (x -1). Now consider the sign of that factor for x = 1.1. The value is (1.1 -1) = 0.1, a positive number.
When the value of x is 0.9, the factor is (0.9 -1) = -0.1, a negative number.
This tells you that values to the left of a zero make the factor(s) associated with that zero be negative. For x-values to the right of the zero, the factor(s) will be positive.
If the multiplicity is even, the product of those factors is positive on either side of the zero. (A negative number to an even power is a positive number.) That is, the graph will not change sign from one side of an even-multiplicity factor to the other. At an odd-multiplicity factor, the graph changes sign.
__
For the problem at hand, the only even-multiplicity factor is (x -1), so the graph will not change sign at x=1. It will touch the axis (be tangent to the x-axis), but will not cross. The other zeros have odd multiplicity (1 or 3), so the graph will change sign there.
It is worthwhile to note that the higher the multiplicity, the "flatter" the graph is at the zero. You can see this in the attachment by comparing the shape of the graph at x=6 with the shape at x=2 (also an upward zero crossing).
_____
Additional comment
You may wonder why the curve is below the x-axis at x=1 when the product of the factors in that neighborhood is always positive. The reason is that there are an odd number of zeros to the right of x=1, so the product of those factors is negative.

Answer: Choice B
[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{65}}<-4, 7>[/tex]
===============================================================
Explanation:
Consider a right triangle with legs a = 4 and b = 7. Through the pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse is
c = sqrt(a^2+b^2) = sqrt(4^2+7^2) = sqrt(65)
This represents the length of the vector <-4,7>
Dividing each component by the length will normalize the vector. This is the same as multiplying by [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{65}}[/tex] which is what choice B shows. The phrasing "normalize the vector" means "make the vector to be of length 1". A common application of normalizing vectors will come up in computer graphics.
The original vector and the vector mentioned in choice B point in the same direction. The only thing that has changed is the length from sqrt(65) to 1.
