1) The dimensions of an irregular solid are as shown in the figure below.
a) Write a polynomial function, in standard form, to model the volume of this solid.
b) If the volume of the solid is 208 cubic inches, what is the value of x?
Answers
Hello,
a) Volume of the figure = Volume of light blue rectangular parallelepiped - volume of dark blue rectangular parallelepiped
Volume of rectangular parallelepiped = lengh × high × height
Volume of light blue rectangular parallelepiped :
V = (x + 2) × (x + 5) × (2x + 1)
V = (x² + 5x + 2x + 10) × (2x + 1)
V = (x² + 7x + 10) × (2x + 1)
V = 2x³ + 15x² + 27x + 10
Volume of dark blue rectangular parallelepiped :
V = x × 3 × (x + 5)
V = 3x(x + 5)
V = 3x² + 15x
Polynomial function, in standard form, to model the volume of this solid :
V = 2x³ + 15x² + 27x + 10 - (3x² + 15x)
V = 2x³ + 15x² - 3x² + 27x - 15x + 10
V = 2x³ + 12x² + 12x + 10
b) We have to solve 2x³ + 12x² + 12x + 10 = 208
⇔ 2x³ + 12x² + 12x - 198 = 0
⇔ 2(x - 3)(x² + 9x + 33) = 0
⇔ x = 3 or x² + 9x + 33 = 0
a = 1 ; b = 9 ; c = 33
Δ = b² - 4ac = 9² - 4 × 1 × 33 = -51 < 0 ⇔ Δ < 0 ⇒ no solution
So if the volume of the solid is 208 cubic inches, the value of x is 3

The expression of function g(x) is [tex]\sqrt{\frac {x - 1}2} + 3[/tex]
How to determine the expression?The function is given as:
[tex]f(x) = \sqrt{x[/tex]

The diagonal length of the photo frame having measurements of 8 inches in length and 7 inches in width is 10.63 inches.
How is the diagonal of a rectangle determined?The diagonal of a rectangle having a length l and width w will be:
d = √(l² + w²).
How to solve the question?In the question, we are asked to determine the diagonal length of the photo frame bought by Mike, having measurements of 8 inches in length and 7 inches in width.
We know the photo frame is in the shape of a rectangle, as it has a length and a width.
We also know that the diagonal of a rectangle having a length l and width w will be:
d = √(l² + w²).
So, by substituting l = 8 and w = 7, in the above relation, we can calculate the diagonal of the photo frame as:
d = √(8² + 7²),
or, d = √(64 + 49),
or, d = √113,
or, d = 10.63.
Therefore, the diagonal length of the photo frame having measurements of 8 inches in length and 7 inches in width is 10.63 inches.

A sequence is defined recursively by the formula f(n 1) = f(n) 3 . the first term of the sequence is –4. what is the next term in the sequence?
Answers
The next term in the sequence is -1.
Given a sequence is defined recursively by the formula f(n+1)=f(n)+3.
An ordered list of integers that frequently follows a pattern or function is known as a sequence. Sequences can have a finite or indefinite length. Terms refer to the distinct components of a sequence. The individual numbers or parts that make up a sequence are known as its terms.
The first term of the sequence is -4.
That means f(1)=-4 .......(1)
When compare f(1) with f(n+1), we get
n=0
So, when n=0 then it is the first term of the sequence.
When n=1 then substituting this in the given formula, we get
f(1+1)=f(1)+3
f(2)=f(1)+3
Now, Substitute the value of f(1) from equation (1), we get

Hence, the next term in the sequence when the sequence is defined recursively by the formula f(n+1) = f(n)+3 and the first term of the sequence is –4 is -1.

please help asap!
Answers
Answer:
a) 50 meters
b) 2354 meters
c) 12 seconds
d) 24.13 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
a) How far is Lincoln above the ground when he shoots the gun?We need to really understand what the variables represent in this question. Given that t is time, and h is height, the time at which he shoots the bullet will be 0, as the bullet hasn't started traveling yet. This means that we can solve for the original height of the bullet by plugging in 0 for time in the equation.
Equation: [tex]h = -16t^2 + 384t + 50[/tex]
Plug in 0 for t:
[tex]h = -16t^2 + 384t + 50[/tex][tex]h = -16(0)^2 + 384(0) + 50[/tex][tex]h = 50[/tex]The height at which Lincoln shot the bullet is 50 meters.
We can also look at this graphically. The height of origin will simply be when the x-value (in this case t-value) is 0. That means it is the point at which the graph intersects the y-axis, known as the y-intercept.
Standard form of a Parabola: [tex]y = ax^2 + bx + c[/tex]
The y-intercept is the "c" value.
Given our equation: [tex]h = -16t^2 + 384t + 50[/tex]
The c-value is 50. This proves that the y-intercept is 50.
b)How high does the bullet travel vertically relative to the ground?We want to find the highest point of the graph. To do that, we can find the vertex.
We can utilize the Axis of Symmetry (AOS) to find the Vertex.
First, find the AOS using the formula: [tex]AOS = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
a = -16b = 384Plug it into the formula:
[tex]AOS = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex][tex]AOS = -\frac{384}{2(-16)}[/tex][tex]AOS = \frac{384}{32}[/tex][tex]AOS = 12[/tex]Plug in 12 for t in the equation:
[tex]h = -16t^2 + 384t + 50[/tex][tex]h = -16(12)^2 + 384(12) + 50[/tex][tex]h = -2304 + 4608 + 50[/tex][tex]h = 2304+50[/tex][tex]h = 2354[/tex]Therefore, the highest point of the bullet is 2354 meters.
c)How long does it take the bullet to reach its greatest height?We answered this in the last question. The t-value when h is at its highest is 12.
d)After how many seconds (round to nearest 100th) does the bullet hit the ground?We have to solve for the values of t when h is 0 (when it touches the ground).
Set the equation to 0, and solve using the quadratic formula.
Quadratic formula: [tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex][tex]x = \frac{-384\pm\sqrt{384^2 - 4(-16)(50)}}{2(-16)}[/tex][tex]x = \frac{-384\pm\sqrt{147456 +3200}}{-32}[/tex][tex]x = \frac{-384\pm\sqrt{150656}}{-32}[/tex][tex]x = \frac{-384\pm388.14}{-32}[/tex][tex]x = -\frac{4.14}{32}, x = \frac{772.14}{32}[/tex]We are only going to take the positive solution, as we can't have a negative time. The solution that doesn't work is called an extraneous solution.
[tex]x = \frac{772.14}{32}[/tex][tex]x = 24.13[/tex]It takes approximately 24.13 seconds for the bullet to hit the ground.
At a sand and gravel plant, sand is falling off a conveyor and onto a conical pile at a rate of 16 cubic feet per minute. The diameter of the base of the cone is approximately three times the altitude. At what rate (in ft/min) is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 2 feet high
Answers
The rate at which the height of the pile is changing when the height is 2 ft. is 0.5659 ft./min. Computed using differentiation.
The sand is falling onto a conical pile, thus we get the pile in the shape of a cone, whose volume is given as:
V = (1/3)πr²h,
where V represents the volume of the cone, r represents its radius, and h represents its height.
In the question, we are given that the rate of piling is 16 ft.³/min, which implies that:
dV/dt = 16 ... (i)
We are also given that the diameter is three times the altitude (height), which can be shown as:
2r = 3h,
or, r = (3/2)h.
Thus, the volume can now be shown as:
V = (1/3)π{(3/2)h}²h,
or, V = (3πh³)/4.
Differentiating this with respect to time, we get:
dV/dt = (3π/4)(3h²)dh/dt.
Now, we need to calculate the rate of change of height, when the height is 2 feet, thus we take h = 2
Using dV/dt = 16 from (i), we can write:
16 = (3π/4)(3(2)²)dh/dt.,
or, 16 = 9π(dh/dt),
or, dh/dt = 16/9π = 0.5659 ft./min.
Thus, the rate at which the height of the pile is changing when the height is 2 ft. is 0.5659 ft./min.
