Find the value of [tex]$6+\frac{1}{2+\frac{1}{6+\frac{1}{2+\frac{1}{6+\cdots}}}}$.[/tex] Your answer will be of the form [tex]$a+b\sqrt{c}$[/tex] where no factor of $c$ (other than $1$) is a square. Find $a+b+c$.

Answers

Answer 1

Let

[tex]x = 6 + \dfrac1{2 + \dfrac1{6 + \dfrac1{2 + \cdots}}}[/tex]

Then

[tex]x = 6 + \dfrac1{2 + \dfrac1x}[/tex]

and solving for x gives

[tex]x = 6 + \dfrac x{2x + 1}[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{13x + 6}{2x + 1}[/tex]

[tex]x(2x+1) = 13x + 6[/tex]

[tex]2x^2 + x = 13x + 6[/tex]

[tex]2x^2 - 12x - 6 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^2 - 6x - 3 = 0[/tex]

By the quadratic formula,

[tex]x = 3 \pm 2\sqrt{3}[/tex]

but x must be a positive number, so only the positive square root solution is valid.

[tex]x = 3 + 2\sqrt{3}[/tex]

We identify a = c = 3 and b = 2, so a + b + c = 8.

A room is 15 feet long and 12 feet wide. A scale drawing of the room is 10 inches by 8 inches. What is the scale of inches in the drawing to inches in the actual room?

Enter the correct answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

The scale is 1:18 for the entire room, 1 inch in the diagram for 18 inches IRL

Step-by-step explanation:

12 inches = 1 foot

Convert the feet to inches, then divide both sides of the ratio by the # of inches in the diagram

So for length:

10:(15*12)

10:180

1:18

And for width:

8:12(12)

8:144

1:18

Answer:

18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks for scale of inches in the drawing and the actual room, so first convert 15 ft and 12 ft into inches.

1 foot= 12in x 1ft= 12 inches

15 feet= 12in x 15ft = 180 inches

12 feet= 12in x 12ft = 144 inches

The room is 180 inches long and 144 inches wide.

To find the scale, set up a proportion to the drawing to the room.

[tex]\frac{10}{8} =\frac{180}{144}[/tex]

You can see that the scale is 18 inches because to get from 180 to 10, you multiply by 18, and the same thing as 8, you would multiply 8 by 18 to get to 144.

Does this graph represent a function? Why or why not?
A. No, because it fails the vertical line test.
B. Yes, because it passes the vertical line test
C. Yes becquse it has two straight lines
D. No because it is not a straight line

Answers

Answer: A. No because it fails the vertical line test

The graph does not represent function because it fails the vertical line test.

What is Function?

In mathematics, a function is an expression, rule, or law that establishes the relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable. In mathematics, functions exist everywhere, and they are crucial for constructing physical links in the sciences.

The "function" would pass the vertical line test if the two lines meet at an angle larger than 90 degrees and the base line is horizontal.

Here, the vertical line test indicates that it is invalid.

The "vertical line test" primary consideration whenever it appears in an option. In this instance, failing the vertical line test is defined as all x values having two y values.  

Thus, graph does not represent function.
