if f(x) = ax + b where a and b are Costants f(1) = 6and f(-2)=3, find the value of a and b?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 1

b = 5

⇒ f(x) = x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = ax + bf(1) = 6f(-2) = 3

Therefore,

f(1) = 6    ⇒   a + b = 6

f(-2) = 3   ⇒   -2a + b = 3

Rewrite a + b = 6 to make a the subject, substitute into  -2a + b = 3  and solve for b:

a = 6 - b

⇒ -2(6 - b) + b = 3

⇒ -12 + 2b + b = 3

⇒ -12 + 3b = 3

⇒  3b = 15

⇒  b = 5

Substitute found value for b into  a + b = 6  and solve for a:

⇒ a + 5 = 6

⇒ a = 1

Therefore, f(x) = x + 5

On a piece of paper, sketch or use a protractor to construct right triangle ABC with AB=3 in., m∠A=90°, and m∠B=45°.

What statement is true about the triangle?

A. BC=3 in

B. AC=3 in.

C. AC=6 in.

D. BC=6 in

Answers

B. AC = 3 in.

because when there is a right triangle with an angle that equals 45 degrees, all sides, not including the hypotenuse, are automatically congruent. This triangle is like that. So if one side, that is not the hypotenuse, equals 3 then the other aide equals 3.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=750m[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Assuming[/tex] [tex]That[/tex]:

[tex]1m=3.3ft[/tex]

We can make the conversion from feet per second to meters per second with this procedure:

[tex](165 \frac{ft}{s} ) (\frac{1m}{3.3ft} )=50\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the amount of meters the parachutist will fall during 15 seconds of free fall

Having that in 1 second the parachutist falls 50 meters, we can calculate [tex]x[/tex] :

[tex]x=(50\frac{m}{s} )(15s)[/tex]

The flight from Perth to London is 16 hours and 35 minutes. The time in Perth is 7 hours ahead of London. A flight leaves Perth at 8am on Wednesday. What is the time in London when the flight arrives?​

Answers

Answer:

Flight arrived in london on 5 : 35 pm Wednesday

Step-by-step explanation:

Time = 16 h 35 min

Time difference = 7 h

Flight time  =  8am

So

     According to perth time flight reached in london is

         8 am + 16 h 35 m =  8 am + ( 12 h + 4h + 35 m) =

         8pm + 4h +35 =  12am + 35m   = 12 : 35 am

The time difference is 7 h ,so minus this from  perth time

      12 : 35 am -  7h  =   5 : 35 pm

Answer:

explanation:

Given equations:

6x + y = -7

-24x -7y = 25

Make y the subject:

6x + y = -7

y = -7 - 6x ..............equation 1

-24x -7y = 25

-7y = 25 + 24x

y = (25 + 24x)/-7 ..........equation 2

Solve them simultaneously:

(25 + 24x)/-7 = -7 - 6x

25 + 24x = -7 (-7 - 6x)

25 + 24x = 49 + 42x

42x - 24x = 25- 42

18x = -24

x = [tex]-\frac{4}{3}[/tex]

Then y is:

y = -7 - 6x

y = -7 - 6( [tex]-\frac{4}{3}[/tex])

y = 1

Has one separate value of x and y: (  [tex]-\frac{4}{3}[/tex] , 1 ); so it has one solution.

Hello everyone, I'm just having trouble on two questions for my Calculus work. I need to solve them using trig substitution to eliminate the root. Does anyone know where to start with this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answers

The main idea is to exploit the trigonometric identity,

sin²(θ) + cos²(θ) = 1

2. For an integral containing 16 - 81x², you might substitute x = 4/9 sin(θ) (with differential dx = 4/9 cos(θ) dθ, but without an actual integral to work with this isn't really important). Then

16 - 81x² = 16 - 81 (4/9 sin(θ))²

… = 16 - 81 (16/81 sin²(θ))

… = 16 - 16 sin²(θ)

… = 16 (1 - sin²(θ))

… = 16 cos²(θ)

so that in the root expression, we would end up with

[tex]\left(16 - 81x^2\right)^{7/2} = \left(16\cos^2(\theta)\right)^{7/2} = 2^{14} |\cos(\theta)|^7[/tex]

since [tex](ab)^c=a^cb^c[/tex] for all real a, b, and c; [tex]16^{7/2}=\left(2^4\right)^{7/2}=2^{14}[/tex]; and [tex]\sqrt{x^2}=|x|[/tex] for all real x.

The goal is to replace x with some multiple of sin(θ) that makes the coefficients factor out like they did here, which then lets you reduce 1 - sin²(θ) to cos²(θ).

And don't be discouraged by the absolute values; in the context of a definite integral, there are things that can be done to remove them or otherwise simplify absolute value expressions.

3. Substitute z = 1/√8 sin(θ) (so that dz = 1/√8 cos(θ) dθ). Then

1 - 8z² = 1 - 8 (1/√8 sin(θ))²

… = 1 - 8 (1/8 sin²(θ))

… = 1 - sin²(θ)

… = cos²(θ)

so that

[tex]\left(1-8z^2\right)^{3/2} = \left(\cos^2(\theta)\right)^{3/2} = |\cos(\theta)|^3[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

a = 156°

b = 132°

c = 108°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon equals 360°. The sum of an interior and exterior angle equals 180°. There are two missing exterior angles that you need to find the measure of so we can find the value of x.

First exterior angle is with the 82° interior angle. Subtract from 180 to find the exterior angle.

180 - 82 = 98°

The second exterior angle is with the 134° interior angle. Subtract from 180 to find the exterior angle.

180 - 134 = 46°

Now add all the exterior angles together and set them equal to 360.

x + 2x + 3x +72 + 98 + 46 = 360

6x + 216 = 360

6x + 216 -216 = 360 -216

6x = 144

6x/6 = 144/6

x = 24

No find the exterior angles then subtract each one from 180°.

To find a.

a + x = 180

a + 24 = 180

a + 24 - 24 = 180 - 24

a = 156°

To find b.

b + 2x = 180

b + 2(24) = 180

b + 48 = 180

b + 48 - 48 = 180 - 48

b = 132°

To find c.

c + 3x = 180

c + 3(24) = 180

c + 72 = 180

c + 72 - 72 = 180 -72

c = 108°

Side a is 400m and side b is 300m.

Therefore:

Answer:

  350

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the equation can be found by multiplying by the denominator, then dividing by its coefficient.

  [tex]0.22 = \dfrac{77}{x}\qquad\text{given}\\\\0.22x = 77\qquad\text{multiply by $x$}\\\\x=\dfrac{77}{0.22}=350\qquad\text{divide by the coefficient of x}[/tex]

The missing value in the fraction is 350.

__

Additional comment

Here, we have rewritten the percentage as a decimal fraction. You could also rewrite it as a ratio of two integer: 22% = 22/100. Sometimes there is confusion about percentages. It can help to think of the % symbol as meaning /100:

  22% = 22/100

Of course, that is "twenty-two hundredths" or 0.22.

If you just write the problem using 22/100 for 22%, then you get the proportion ...

  22/100 = 77/x

  22x = 7700 . . . . . "cross multiply" (multiply by 100x)

  x = 7700/22 = 350 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

__

If you're paying attention, you see that the solution of this kind of equation has the appearance that the denominator variable and the left-side value are simply swapped:

  [tex]0.22 = \dfrac{77}{x}\ \leftrightarrow\ x=\dfrac{77}{0.22}[/tex]

Effectively, we have multiplied both sides of the equation on the left by x/0.22. There is a property of equality that lets us do that. There is no such thing as a property of equality that says "swap with denominator." You must always pay attention to what is allowed by the properties of equality.
