If g(x) = x^2-5, find the value(s) of x so that:
a. g(x)= 20
b. g(x) = 6

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a)  x = ±5

  b)  x = ±√11 ≈ ±3.317

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want x for some function value, it is convenient to determine the inverse function.

  x = g(y)

  x = y^2 -5

  x +5 = y^2

  y = ±√(x +5)

__

a) x = ±√(20 +5) = ±5

b) x = ±√(6 +5) = ±√11 ≈ ±3.317

One of the cars of the model train is 5 inches long.

To Find :

The length, in feet, of the actual car.

Solution :

It is given that scale of the model is 1 inch to 13.5 feet. It means that 1 inch in the actual scale is equal to 13.5 feet in real.

So, length of car real is :

Length = 5 × 13.5 feet

Length = 67.5 feet

Therefore, the length of the actual car is 67.5 feet.

There are 18 black socks and 12 navy socks in your drawer. The room is dark and you can't turn on the light. What is the least number of socks that you have to take you of the drawer to be certain that you have a pair of the same color? The solution is a number.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest number you can take without having a pair is the number of colors, 2. One more sock must match one already in hand.

You must take one more than the number of colors:

  2 + 1 = 3

You must take 3 socks to be certain of a pair the same color.

Write the an equation of a line that is perpendicular to y= 1/3x + 5 and intersects it at the y intercept

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slope must be -1.

Slope of the given line M = 1/3

Slope of the required line is m

If product is -1, then;

Mm = -1

1/3 m = -1

m = -3

SInce it intersects at the y intercept, y intercept c = 5

Get the required equation. Substitute m = -3 and c = 5 into the equation

y = mx+c

y = -3x + 5

Hence the required equation of the line is y = -3x + 5

We have to find the product .

To find the product we will multiply -3a with each term given in the bracket

[tex]-3a(7a^2)-3a(-4)[/tex]

VW = 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the triangle = 82

Perimeter of the triangle = 4x + (x + 3) + (3x - 1)

4x + (x + 3) + (3x - 1) = 82

4x + x + 3 + 3x - 1 = 82

8x + 2 = 82

8x = 82 - 2

8x = 80

x = 10

VW = 3x - 1

VW = 3(10) - 1

VW = 30 - 1

Which representations show a direct variation?

y = - x

y = 2 x + 3

Input (x) 3 6 9 12 15
Output (y) 4 8 12 16 20

Answers

Answer:

Options 1 and 3 are direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is:

y = kx

Options:

1.

y = -x, k = -1, yes

2.

y = 2x + 3, not a direct variation, no

3.

Try the input/output to determine the direct variation:

4 = 3k k = 4/3

Verify the other pairs:

x = 6, y = 6(4/3) = 8x = 9, y = 9(4/3) = 12x = 12, y = 12(4/3) = 16x = 15, y = 15(4/3) = 20

This is also a direct variation

Taylor invested $650 in an account paying an interest rate of 2.3% compounded
daily. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, how long would it take, to the
nearest tenth of a year, for the value of the account to reach $880?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Principal = $650

Interest rate, r = 2.3% = 0.023 compounded daily

Time, t it takes for final amount, A to reach $880

Using the relation :

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

n = number of times compounded per period

Hence, n = 365

880 = 650(1 + 0.023/365)^365t

880/650 = 1.0000630^365t

1.3538461 = 1.0000630^365t

Take the log

0.1315692 = 0.0000273596 * 365t

0.1315692 = 0.0099862t

t = 0.1315692 / 0.0099862

t = 13.175101

t = 13.18 years a

Constructed Response you have an economic decision to make. You have $50.00 to spend. Should you purchase sports equipment to use at home, a ticket to attend a professional sporting event, or sports memorabilia for your football collection ?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From a business standpoint, I think the smartest decision would be either the sports equipment or the memorabilia. Each has pros and cons so it depends on you. The sporting event would be the worst option as it is something that can most likely be viewed for free online. The sporting equipment will still hold monetary value and can be resold as well as providing you with other value if used properly such as being healthier and/or putting on muscle. The Sports Memorabilia would not provide real life value but may increase in monetary value and have a much higher resale value than the equipment.
