Answer:

x = 8, x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sqrt{4x - 31}[/tex] = x - 7 ( square both sides )

4x - 31 = (x - 7)² ← expand using FOIL

4x - 31 = x² - 14x + 49 ( sub 4x - 31 from both sides )

0 = x² - 18x + 80 ← in standard form

0 = (x - 8)(x - 10) ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 8 = 0 ⇒ x = 8

x - 10 = 0 ⇒ x = 10

As a check

Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions.

x = 8

left side = [tex]\sqrt{4(8)-31 }[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{32-31}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{1}[/tex] = 1

right side = 8 - 7 = 1

Then x = 8 is a solution

x = 10

left side = [tex]\sqrt{4(10)-31}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{40-31}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{9}[/tex] = 3

right side = 10 - 7 = 3

Then x = 10 is a solution

PLEASEEEE HELP! MY MOM IS GONNA KILL ME

Answers

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the perimeter of the rectangle is 80, we can set up the perimeter formula:

80=2L+2W=2(3x+3)+2(2x+2)=6x+6+4x+4=10x+10

10x=70

x=7

AB=2x+2=2(7)+2=14+2=16

Answer:

AB= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2+3x+3=40

Add like terms: 2x+3x= 5x and 2+3=5

New equation: 5x+5=40

Solve: 40-5= 35

35 divided by 5= 7

Now we know that x is equal to 7.

2(7)+2= 16

Side DC equals 16.

Side AB has the same length as side DC since it's a rectangle.

Side AB equals 16.

Let's check: 16+16=32 (side DC and side AB)

80-32=483(7)+3= 24

24 must be the length of the other sides.

24+24= 48

So, when you add all the sides together...

16+16+24+24= 80

You get 80, the perimeter!

I hope this helped!

I’m confused on this question

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 5}f(x)=-5\\\lim_{x \to 1^-} f(x)=3\\\lim_{x \to 1^+} f(x)=3\\\lim_{x \to 1} f(x)=4\\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 5}f(x)[/tex]

This means "the limit of f(x) as x approaches 5"

In this case, f(x) is a basic linear function while x > 1, so a limit is not necessary but it can still be used as it is here. For this one, you can just calculate f(5), and that is:

[tex]f(x)=5-2x[/tex]

[tex]f(5)=5-2(5)=5-10=-5[/tex]

[tex]\lim_{x \to 5}f(x)=-5[/tex]

===================

[tex]\lim_{x \to 1^-} f(x)[/tex]

This one is a little different. It means "the limit of f(x) as x approaches 1 from the negative (left) direction"

The negative direction of course means x will be less than 1, so we'll use this function:

[tex]f(x)=4-x[/tex]

It's easier if you graph it, but you can also do it like this:

[tex]f(0)=4+0=4\\f(0.5)=4-0.5=3.5\\f(0.75)=4-0.75=3.25\\f(0.9)=4-0.9=3.1\\f(0.99)=4-0.99=3.01[/tex]

There's a clear pattern there. You can see that f(1) should be 3, but this function only applies while x is less than 1 so it can never reach 3. It will get infinitely close, and that can be shown with the limit:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 1^-} f(x)=3[/tex]

===================

[tex]\lim_{x \to 1^+} f(x)[/tex]

This one works the same way, but from the positive (right) direction.

[tex]f(2)=5-4=1\\f(1.5)=5-3=2\\f(1.25)=5-2.5=2.5\\f(1.1)=5-2.2=2.8\\f(1.01)=5-2.02=2.98\\f(1.001)=5-2.002=2.998[/tex]

It will also get infinitely close to 3 when x = 1, but won't ever reach it because this function only applies when x is greater than 1.

[tex]\lim_{x \to 1^+} f(x)=3[/tex]

===================

[tex]\lim_{x \to 1} f(x)[/tex]

Here, the function for x=1 is just:

[tex]f(x)=4[/tex]

It's given already, so the limit is just:

[tex]\lim_{x \to 1} f(x)=4[/tex]

Suppose you plan to take a survey of Math 146 students asked about their overall grades at CBC. 22 students were surveyed, and it was found that the average GPA of the 22 sampled students was a 3.2, with a standard deviation of 0.9 points. Suppose you want to re-sample the population to reduce the margin of error. If you plan to calculate a 90% confidence interval for the true mean GPA of Math students, how many samples would be necessary to reduce the margin of error to 0.2 points?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the data set given below here and using it, we want to find the sample mean X. Bar, the sample standard deviation S. And constructed 99% confidence interval for the population we knew, assuming the population is normally distributed. So since we have this data we can find expire and s using the appropriate definitions expire, is that some of the data divided by n 2.353 and s. Is the square root of the sum of deviations of the mean square divided by n minus one. In this case 1.3 Now with X. Bar and sample standard deviation S, we can use a student's t distribution to construct this confidence interval. So we can identify the appropriate T score. So for the degree of freedom and minus one equals 14 and critical values um providing probability 140.99 for the confidence interval,  to identify T C equals 2.977 Now, with this T. C, we can identify the margin of error E, which is given by this formula plugging in our T C. S and N. We obtain E equals 0.572 And now plugging into our confidence interval formula, which is that new falls between a sample mean minus C, and sampling plus E gives us our confidence interval. That new is between 1.781 and 2.9 to 5 with 99% confidence.

So um anyone know how to do this?

We need to find distance they travel as a function of time. This simply means that x is the function of time. The destination is 120 miles away, this is irrelevant for the question that is currently being asked. However, we know that they have already travelled 20 miles and are going 50 miles and hour. So lets plug in what we have.

50 is our rate of change, so we match that with the x.

20 is our constant, the distance already travelled.

This means our function is:

f(x) = 50x + 20

This means our answer is D) f(x) = 50x + 20

Lets also plug in 120 to solve how much further they need to travel before arriving.

120 is our f(x) as it is the final distance travelled.

120 = 50x + 20

120-20 = 50x

100 = 50x

100/50 = x

2 = x

This means that they need to travel 2 hours in addition to the 20 miles they have already gone.

I hope I've helped! :)

The two consecutive integers between which the solution is located are 2 and 3

Given the expressions x^2 = 3 and x^2 = 5

Take the square root of both sides

x = ±√3

x = 1.732

Hence the two consecutive integers between which the solution is located are 1 and 2
