Answer:

AB = 4

BC = 4

AC = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, B is the midpoint of AC which means it divided the AC into two equal parts. Using this information we can write the following equation:

5x - 6 = 2x add 6 to both sides

5x = 2x + 6 subtract 2x from both sides

3x = 6 divide both sides by 3

x = 2 to find the length of AB, AC, and BC replace x with 2

AB = 5*2 - 6

BC = 2*2

AC = 8 (sum of AB and BC)

[tex]\huge \boxed{\sf x=2}\\\\\huge \boxed{\sf AB=4}\\\\\huge \boxed{\sf BC=4}\\\\\huge \boxed{\sf AC=8}[/tex]

If you're just starting calculus, perhaps you're asking about using the definition of the derivative to differentiate [tex]x^4[/tex].

We have

Expand the numerator using the binomial theorem, then simplify and compute the limit.

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx} x^4 = \displaystyle \lim_{h\to0} \frac{(x^4+4hx^3 + 6h^2x^2 + 4h^3x + h^4) - x^4}h \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \lim_{h\to0} \frac{4hx^3 + 6h^2x^2 + 4h^3x + h^4}h \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = \lim_{h\to0} (4x^3 + 6hx^2 + 4h^2x + h^3) = \boxed{4x^3}[/tex]

In general, the derivative of a power function [tex]f(x) = x^n[/tex] is [tex]\frac{df}{dx} = nx^{n-1}[/tex]. (This is the aptly-named "power rule" for differentiation.)

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

In an equation, the expressions on either side of the equals sign are called the left-hand side (LHS) and the right-hand side (RHS), respectively. The equals sign (=) indicates that the two expressions have the same value, and that the equation is true for certain values of the variables involved.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. It typically consists mathematical operations, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponentiation.

Given data ,

Answer:

No solutions.

Answer:

  No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

It is easiest to determine whether the equations are consistent by putting both of them in the same form.

The equation on the left is in "standard form." The one on the right is in "slope-intercept form." We can rewrite either one of them to put it into the other form.

Rewriting the left equation to slope-intercept form, we have ...

  y = 4x -3 . . . . . . . add 4x to both sides

Comparing this to the right equation ...

  y = 4x +7

we see that the slopes are the same, and the intercepts are different. These equations describe parallel lines. Parallel lines can never meet, so cannot have any point in common. The equations are inconsistent and have no solution.

Rewriting the right equation to standard form, we have ...

  y -4x = 7 . . . . . . . subtract 4x from both sides

Comparing this to the left equation ...

  y -4x = -3

we see that the coefficients are the same, but the constants are different. There can be no values of x and y that will satisfy both equations. Any values that make the terms have one sum cannot also make them have a different sum.

There are no solutions.

Answer:

The answer is C

it is C because parallel lines don't intercept the go up or across but they don't touch, just imagine it isn't graphed.

The probability that the mean diameter of the sample shafts would differ from the population mean by greater than 0.3 inches is 39.54%.

Given mean diameter of 207, variance=9, sample size of 72.

We have to calculate the probability that the mean diameter of the sample shafts would differ from the population mean by greater than 0.3 inches.

The sample mean may be greater than or less than from population mean than 0.3 inches.

Either greater than 207+0.3=207.3 inches,

Smaller =207-0.3=206.7

Since the normal distribution is symmetric these probabilities are equal. So we find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability of being less than 206.7

P value of z when X=206.7. So

Z=(X-μ)/s

=(206.7-207)/0.35

=-0.3/0.35

=-0.857

p value =0.1977

Probability of differing from population mean greater than 0.3 inches=2*0.1977

=0.3954

=39.54%

Hence the probability that the mean diameter of the sample shafts would differ from the population mean  by greater than 0.3 inches is 39.54%.

Answer:

Option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations in the options are in the slope-intercept form (y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept).

In the graph, the line cuts through the y-axis at y= -2. Thus, c= -2 and the 2nd option can be eliminated.

The slope can be found using the formula below.

[tex]\boxed{\text{slope}=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2} }[/tex]

Let's choose 2 points on the line: (0, -2) and (-2, 4)

Slope

[tex]=\frac{4-(-2)}{-2-0}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{4+2}{-2}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{6}{-2}[/tex]

Use the inclusion/exclusion principle:

[tex]|A \cup B| = |A| + |B| - |A \cap B|[/tex]

where [tex]|\cdot|[/tex] denotes set cardinality (the number of elements the set contains). The set [tex]A\cap B[/tex] is the set of common divisors of [tex]m[/tex] and [tex]n[/tex]. Then

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the equation:

[tex] {7x}^{2} - 16x = 8[/tex]

Take away the 8 from the right hand side, so that we are left with this quadratic equation:

[tex] {7x}^{2} - 16x - 8 = 0[/tex]

This equation is too complex to solve with the factorizing method, so let's use the quadratic formula, which is as follows:

[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this equation, a = 7, b = -16, and c = -8. So let's substitute in:

[tex]x = \frac{-( - 16) \pm \sqrt{ { - 16}^{2} - 4 \times 7 \times - 8}}{2 \times 7}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{ - ( - 16) \pm \sqrt{256 + 224} }{14}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{ 16 \pm \sqrt{480}}{14}[/tex]

First factor out the GCF 2x

2x^4+2x^3-4x^2-4x

2x*x^3+2x*x^2-2x*2x-2x*2

2x(x^3 + x^2 - 2x - 2)

Then let's factor the expression inside the parenthesis using the factor by grouping method

x^3 + x^2 - 2x - 2

(x^3 + x^2) + (- 2x - 2)

x^2(x + 1) - 2(x + 1)

(x^2 - 2)(x+1)

We see that x^3 + x^2 - 2x - 2 factors to (x^2-2)(x+1)

Overall, the original expression fully factors to 2x(x^2-2)(x+1)

length = 2x

width = x^2-2

height = x+1

The order of length, width, and height doesn't matter.

The  volume as the product its dimensions 2x*( x²-2)*(x+1).

Volume is a mathematical quantity that shows the amount of three-dimensional space occupied by an object or a closed surface.

Given:

volume of a rectangular prism is given by the expression 2x^4+2x³-4x²-4x

=2x*x^3+2x*x^2-2x*2x-2x*2

=2x(x³ + x² - 2x - 2)

Now, we get the factor 2x(x³ + x² - 2x - 2).

Keeping aside 2x we will now focus on (x³ + x² - 2x - 2)

We already get the one factor 2x and now using (x³ + x² - 2x - 2) to get the other two factors.

Now solving x³ + x² - 2x - 2

=(x³ +  x²) + (- 2x - 2)

= x²(x + 1) - 2(x + 1)

=( x² - 2)(x+1)

Now we get the two factors  ( x² - 2)(x+1).

The expression  for  volume as the product its dimensions is 2x*( x²-2)*(x+1)

Hence,   volume as the product its dimensions is 2x*( x²-2)*(x+1).

Explanation:

The idea I used is that we cannot add the fractions unless the denominators are the same. The denominators x and (x-1) lead to the lowest common denominator, aka LCD, of [tex]\text{x}(\text{x}-1) = \text{x}^2 - \text{x}[/tex]. We multiply the denominators together to get the LCD.

The first original fraction [tex]\frac{2}{\text{x}}[/tex] is missing (x-1) in the denominator. This is why I multiplied top and bottom by (x-1) in the 2nd step. Similarly, the fraction [tex]\frac{3}{\text{x}-1}[/tex] is missing an x out front to get to x(x-1). This is why I multiplied top and bottom of that fraction by x.

After we get the denominators to be the same, we can then add the numerators like any other algebraic expression. The denominator stays the same the entire time.

It's similar to how [tex]\frac{2}{7} + \frac{3}{7} = \frac{2+3}{7} = \frac{5}{7}[/tex] has the numerators add like you'd expect while the denominator stays at 7 the entire time.

You can think of it like this: "2 sevenths + 3 sevenths = 5 sevenths" or "2s+3s = 5s" for short. The term "sevenths" is effectively a unit such as cm or meters. We must have common units if we want to add them.
