Answer 1

Answer:

2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we can use the exponencial function:

P = Po * (1 + r)^t

Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the time.

In this case, we have Po = 8, P = 7 and r = -5% = -0.05. So, we can solve for t:

7 = 8 * (0.95)^t

0.95^t = 0.875

log(0.95^t) = log(0.875)

t * log(0.95) = -0.1335

t * (-0.0513) = -0.1335

t = -0.1335 / (-0.0513) = 2.6023 hours

Rounding to the nearest half-hour, we have t = 2.5 hours

!!! Use the sum of cubes identity to find the factors of the expression 8x^6 + 27y^3. Write your answer in the form of the expression on the right of the sum of cubes identity. CLIP IN QUESTION

Answers

Answer:

(2x² + 3y)(4[tex]x^{4}[/tex] - 6x²y + 9y²)

Step-by-step explanation:

A sum of cubes is factored in general as

a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²) , thus

8[tex]x^{6}[/tex] + 27y³

= (2x²)³ + (3y)³ with a = 2x² and b = 3y

= (2x² + 3y)((2x²)² - 2x²(3y) + (3y)²)

= (2x² + 3y)(4[tex]x^{4}[/tex] - 6x²y + 9y²)

4(x + 2) = 2x + 10


explain each step plz

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4(x + 2) = 2x + 10[/tex]

Distribute 4(x+2).

[tex]4x+8 = 2x + 10[/tex]

Subtract 2x and 8 from both sides.

[tex]4x-2x=10-8[/tex]

[tex]2x=2[/tex]

Divide both sides of the equation by 2.

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} =\frac{2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=1[/tex]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x + 2) = 2x + 10

You start by expanding 4(x +2)

i.e. 4x + 8 = 2x + 10

Then, subtract 2x from both sides of the equation

4x + 8 - 2x = 2x + 10 - 2x

4x - 2x + 8 = 2x - 2x + 10

2x + 8 = 10

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation

i.e. 2x +8 - 8 = 10 - 8

2x = 2

Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x above(which is 2)

[tex]\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{2}{2}[/tex]

x = 1

In the given figure, values of x and y, are 1. 40°, 25° 2. 30°, 40° 3. 30°, 20° 4. 40°, 35°

Answers

Answer:

1. 40°, 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180°.

2x + 4 + 4y - 4 = 180

x+ 10 + 5y + 5 = 180

2x + 4y = 180

x +5y + 15 = 180

x + 2y = 90

x + 5y = 165

x = 90 - 2y

x = 165 - 5y

90 - 2y = 165 - 5y

5y - 2y = 165 - 90

3y = 75

y = 25

x = 90- 2y = 90 - 2*25 = 40

x= 40, y = 25

Answers

Answer:

x = 1.32, -5.32

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 4x - 7

Set equal to zero

x^2 + 4x - 7 =0

Add 7 to each side

x^2 + 4x =7

Take the coefficient of x and divide by 2

4/2

Square it

2^2 =4

Add to each side

x^2+4x+4 = 7+4

(x+2)^2 = 11

Take the square root of each side

x+2 = ±sqrt(11)

Subtract 2 from each side

x = -2 ±sqrt(11)

x=1.31662

x=-5.31662

To 2 decimal places
