Using the equation
[tex] \sqrt{x + 7} + 5 = x[/tex]
, are both x = 2 and x = 9 solutions or are one/both of them extraneous solutions? Explain.​

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The equation is:

[tex]\sqrt{x+7}+5=x[/tex]

To find:

Whether [tex]x=2[/tex] and [tex]x=9[/tex] both are solutions or one/both of them extraneous solutions.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]\sqrt{x+7}+5=x[/tex]

Subtract 5 from both sides.

[tex]\sqrt{x+7}=x-5[/tex]

Taking square on both sides, we get

[tex]x+7=(x-5)^2[/tex]

[tex]x+7=x^2-10x+25[/tex]

[tex]0=x^2-10x+25-x-7[/tex]

[tex]0=x^2-11x+18[/tex]

Splitting the middle term, we get

[tex]x^2-2x-9x+18=0[/tex]

[tex]x(x-2)-9(x-2)=0[/tex]

[tex](x-2)(x-9)=0[/tex]

[tex]x=2,9[/tex]

Now, substitute [tex]x=2[/tex] in the given equation.

[tex]\sqrt{2+7}+5=2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{9}+5=2[/tex]

[tex]3+5=2[/tex]

[tex]8=2[/tex]

This statement is false because [tex]8\neq 2[/tex]. So, 2 is an extraneous solution.

Substitute [tex]x=9[/tex] in the given equation.

[tex]\sqrt{9+7}+5=9[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{16}+5=9[/tex]

[tex]4+5=9[/tex]

[tex]9=9[/tex]

This statement is true. So, 9 is a solution of given equation.

Therefore, 2 is an extraneous solution and 9 is a solution of given equation.

Answers:

Perimeter = 22 cmPerimeter = 22 cmPerimeter = 30 cm

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

Explanation:

The perimeter is the total distance around the outer edge of the figure. It's the total amount of fence you need to enclose the region.

So we simply add up all the side lengths. Refer to the diagram to see any missing sides that aren't labeled (shown in blue).

For instance, the perimeter for problem 1 is 5+2+2.5+4+2.5+6 = 22 cm. Problems 2 and 3 are handled the same way.

It's not a typo that the perimeters of problems 1 and 2 are the same value. This is because both figures can be surrounded by a rectangle that is 6 cm across and 5 cm tall. The perimeter of the surrounding rectangle is exactly the same as the perimeter of the inner fenced region. We're effectively just moving fence around but not changing the perimeter.

Dada a função fx=0,15.X+900 , determine a) f(80) b) f(120) c) f(200) d) f(56)

Answers

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

f(x) = 0.15x + 900

a) f(80) = 0.15(80) + 900

f(80) = 12 +  900

f(80) = 912

b)  f(120) = 0.15(120) + 900

f(120) = 18 +  900

f(120) = 918

c) f(200) = 0.15(200) + 900

f(200) = 30 +  900

f(200) = 930

d)  f(56) = 0.15(56) + 900

f(56) = 8.4 +  900

f(56) = 908.4

in a group of 120 students,90 students study mathematics and 72 study science. if 10 of the student does not study any subject

2)number of students studying both subjects
3)how many students will study mathematics only?
4)how many students will study science only?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students = 120

Number of students studying Mathematics P(A) = 90

Number of students studying Science P(B) = 72

Number of students who doesn't study both subjects P(AUB)'= 10

1) Number of students studying atleast on subject = 120 -10 = 110

2) Number of students studying both math and science = (90 +72) -110

                     = 162 -110 = 52

3) Number of students studying only mathematics = 90 -52 = 38

4) Number of students studying only science = 72 -52 = 20

If we draw this triangle with Q as the vertex angle (the one at the top of the triangle) then the 2 sides are congruent and this is an iosceles triangle. Because this is an isosceles triangle, then the 2 base angles, angle R and angle S are congruent. If Q measures 114 degrees, then angles R and S together have to add up to the difference between 180 and 114:

180 - 114 = 66

Divide that in half so R = S = 33 degrees each

Jacqui likes to travel to the beach on weekends. She starts at her house, drives d miles, and then spends t hours walking the remaining w miles to get to the beach. Jacqui drives three times as long as she walks during the trip. The equation below represents Jacqui's average speed, a, in miles per hour, when traveling to the beach. a=d+w/3t+t What is the meaning of 3t + t3t+t in the equation above? -The total time that Jacqui spends traveling to the beach -The time that Jacqui spends driving to the beach -The total distance that Jacqui travels to the beach -Jacqui's maximum speed during her trip Jacqui's average speed during one trip to the beach was 3636 miles per hour. If Jacqui drove 70 miles and the entire trip to the beach took her 22 hours, how many miles did she walk to get to the beach?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Average speed is the ratio of the total distance travelled to the total time taken. Hence it is given by:

Average speed = total distance / total time

Total distance = d miles + w miles

Jacqui drives three times as long as she walks during the trip, hence:

time spent driving = 3t

Total time = 3t + t

Average speed = total distance / total time

a = (d + w) / (3t + t)

2) (3t + t) represents the total time that Jacqui spends traveling to the beach.

3) Given that a = 36 miles per hour, total time = 2 hours

a = total distance / total time

36 miles per hour = total distance / 2 hours

total distance = 72 miles

Total distance = distance walk + distance drove

72 = distance walk + 70

Distance walk = 2 miles
