If a^b= b^a and b = 2a, what is the value of a + b?​

Answers

Answer 1

We are given:

aᵇ = bᵃ

b = 2a

Finding (a+b):

Finding a:

replacing b by 2a in the first equation, we get:

(a²)ᵃ = (2a)ᵃ

(a²)ᵃ = 2ᵃ * aᵃ

a²ᵃ / aᵃ = 2ᵃ                  [dividing both sides by aᵃ]

aᵃ = 2ᵃ                          [because xᵃ / xᵇ = xᵃ⁻ᵇ]

a = 2                             [raising both sides to 1/a]

Finding b:

We are given that b = 2a

now that we know what a equals, we will plug that value here

b = 2(2)

b = 4

Finding a+b:

We found that a = 2, b = 4

a + b = 2 + 4 = 6

What is the radius of the circle: (x+1)^2+(y-12)^2=25

1. (-1, 12)
2. 5
3. 25
4. (1, -12)

Answers

Answer:

radius = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

Here r² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )

r = [tex]\sqrt{25}[/tex] = 5

Radius= 5 radius=5 radius= 5 radius= 5

Determine whether the statement is true or false. If it is false, explain why or give an example that shows it is false. If a function is continuous at a point, then it is differentiable at that point.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If a Function is differentiable at a point c, it is also continuous at that point.

but be careful, to not assume that the inverse statement is true if a fuction is Continuous it doest not mean it is necessarily differentiable, it must satisfy the two conditions.

the function must have one and only one tangent at x=cthe fore mentioned tangent cannot be a vertical line.

                                          And

If function is differentiable at a point x, then function must also be continuous at x. but The converse does not hold, a continuous function need not be differentiable.

For example, a function with a bend, cusp, or vertical tangent may be continuous, but fails to be differentiable at the location of the anomaly.

ᴀɴsᴡᴇʀ:

1.Example, x²-25 can be factored as (x+5)(x-5).

2.This method is based on the pattern (a+b)(a-b)=a²-b², which can be verified by expanding the parentheses in (a+b)(a-b).

3.When an expression can be viewed as the difference of two perfect squares, i.e. a²-b², then we can factor it as (a+b)(a-b). For example, x²-25 can be factored as (x+5)(x-5).

Georgia bought a pair of flip-flops that cost $3.46 and a pair of slip-on shoes that cost $9.87.
She paid a total of $ for the two pairs of shoes.

Answers

Answer: The cost for the two pairs of shoes is $13.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Cost of pair of flip flops = $3.46

Cost of pair of slip on shoes = $9.87

We need to find the cost of two pairs of shoes.

Cost of two pairs of shoes = Cost of pair of flip flops + Cost of pair of slip on shoes

[tex]cost=3.46+9.87=13.33[/tex]

the cost for the two pairs of shoes is $13.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Replace x with -2

f(-2)=-(-2)^2+3

Solve.

f(-2)=-4+3

      =-1

I hope this helps!

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have f(x) =- x^2 +3 and want to find f(-2), it is basically asking you to calculate the function where x is -2. So if you plug in -2 for x you get:

-(-2)^2 + 3= f(-2)

-4+3= f(-2)

-1=f(-2)

Answer:

[tex]x=7\text{ and } m\angle KLM = 34^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given ethat KM and JN are parallel.

And we want to find the value of x.

Notice that ∠JKM and ∠LKM form a linear pair. Linear pairs total 180°. Therefore:

[tex]m\angle JKM + m\angle LKM = 180[/tex]

We know that ∠JKM measures (14x + 8). Substitute:

[tex](14x+8)+m\angle LKM =180[/tex]

Solve for ∠LKM:

[tex]m\angle LKM = 172-14x[/tex]

Next, since KM and JN are parallel, by the Corresponding Angles Theorem:

[tex]\angle JNM \cong \angle KML[/tex]

Since we know that ∠JNM measure (10x + 2), we can conclude that:

[tex]m\angle KML = 10x+2[/tex]

Next, recall that the three interior angles of a triangle must total 180°. Therefore:

[tex]m\angle KLM + m\angle LKM + m\angle KML = 180[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex](5x-1)+(172-14x)+(10x+2)=180[/tex]

Solve for x. Rewrite:

[tex](5x-14x+10x)+(-1+172+2)=180[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex](1x)+(173)=180[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]x=7[/tex]

To find ∠KLM, substitute in 7 for x and evaluate. So:

[tex]m\angle KLM = 5(7) - 1 =34^\circ[/tex]

Answer:

The dependent variable is the time taken to run 100 metres

Step-by-step explanation:

A dependent variable is simply one that is being measured or sometimes tested in an experiment.

Now, in this case, what is being determined is the time each group of participants will take to run a 100-meter race.

Thus, the dependent variable is the time each group of participants will take to run a 100-meter race.

Multiply and reduce to lowest form and convert into a mixed fraction:

a) 15 x 3/5
b) 4 x 1/3
c) 5/2 x 6​

Answers

Answer:

a) 9

b)

[tex]1 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

c) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to cancel out the fraction's denominator if possible.

a)

[tex]15 \times \frac{3}{5} [/tex]

We can cancel the 5 out since 15 divided by 5 is 3. The answer that comes out is

[tex]3 \times \frac{3}{1} [/tex]

Since 3/1 is 3, we can now simplify the values:

[tex]3 \times 3 = 9[/tex]

b)

[tex]4 \times \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

4 is indivisible by three and gives a non-whole value. This is not what we need here.

Instead we should do the division rule and find the remainder.

In this case, 4 divided by 3 gives 1 with a remainder of 1.

[tex]4 \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{4}{3} [/tex]

After we simplify the non-mixed fraction, we have to change it into a mixed fraction, which consists of a whole number and a fraction. We can split it into the following:

[tex] \frac{4}{3} = 1r1[/tex]

The r1 is just the remainder of the fraction. Since we cannot remove 1 from the remainder, we add it back into the fraction's denominator of 3. This gives:

[tex] \frac{4}{3} = 1 + \frac{1}{3} = 1 \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

c)

[tex] \frac{5}{2} \times 6[/tex]

For this part, we can cancel out 2 since 6 is divisible by 2. This gives:

[tex] \frac{5}{1} \times 3[/tex]

Since 5/1 is 5,

we can now solve part c:

[tex]5 \times 3 = 15[/tex]

Glass bottles are worth 10 cents and aluminum cans are worth 5 cents. If Joe returns 12 glass bottles and 48 aluminum cans, how much money will he receive?


$1.20


$3.60


$2.40


$4.80

Answers

Answer: The answer is 3.60 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bottle = 10 cents

12 bottles = 120 cents

100 cents = 1 dollar

1 cent = 1/100

120 = 1/100 * 120 = 1.2 dollars

now

1 aluminium can = 5 cents

48 cans = 5*48 = 240 cents

240 cents = 1/100 * 240 = 2.4 dollars

so total = (1.2+2.4) dollars

= 3.6 dollars

MNPQ is a rectangle. Find the measure of <1 and <2

Answers

Answer: ∠1 = 48°, ∠2 = 42°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it's a rectangle, NP and MQ are parallel lines. ∠2 and (3x)° are alternate interior angles and are therefore equal. NM and PQ are also parallel lines. ∠1 is equal to (2x + 20)° because they're also alternate interior angles.

∠M = 90° = ∠1 + (3x)° = (2x + 20)° + (3x)°

2x + 20 + 3x = 90

2x + 3x = 90 - 20

5x = 70

x = 14

Because ∠1 = (2x + 20)°,

∠1 = 2x + 20 = 2(14) + 20 = 28 + 20 = 48°

Because ∠2 = (3x)°,

∠2 = 3x = 3(14) = 42°
