The graph of f(x) = ax^2 opens upward and is narrower than the graph of g(x) = x^2 . Which of the following could be the value of a?

A. -0.5

B. 6

C. 0.25

D. -2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given functions are

[tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex]

It is given that the graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] opens upward and is narrower than the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex].  

Graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] opens upward, it means coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] must be positive.

Graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] is narrower than the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex], it means coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] must lies between 0 to 1, i.e., [tex]0<|a|<1[/tex].

From the given options, only 0.25 is a positive number whose absolute value lies in between 0 to 1.

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Answer 2

Following are the solution to the graph function:

Given:

Graph function:

[tex]\to f(x)=ax^2\\\\\to g(x)=x^2\\\\[/tex]

Solution:

It is assumed that its graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] is narrower more expands upwards than the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex].The graph of [tex]f(x)= ax^2[/tex] expands upward, suggesting that the [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex] coefficient must be positive.Since the graph of [tex]f(x)=ax^2[/tex] is thinner than that of the graph of [tex]g(x)=x^2[/tex], it implies that the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex]  has to be between 0 to 1, i.e. [tex]0<|a| <1.[/tex] .Only 0.25 is a positive number with just an absolute value between 0 and 1 among the available alternatives.

Therefore, the final answer is "Option C".

Verify the identity cosx cos(-x) - sinx sin(-x) =1

Answers

Answer:

(identity has been verified)

Step-by-step explanation:

Verify the following identity:

cos(x) cos(-x) - sin(x) sin(-x) = 1

Hint: | Cosine is an even function.

Use the identity cos(-x) = cos(x):

cos(x) cos(x) - sin(-x) sin(x) = ^?1

Hint: | Sine is an odd function.

Use the identity sin(-x) = -sin(x):

cos(x) cos(x) - -sin(x) sin(x) = ^?1

Hint: | Evaluate cos(x) cos(x).

cos(x) cos(x) = cos(x)^2:

cos(x)^2 - ( - sin(x) sin(x)) = ^?1

Hint: | Evaluate -(-sin(x)) sin(x).

-(-sin(x)) sin(x) = sin(x)^2:

cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 = ^?1

Hint: | Use the Pythagorean identity on cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2.

Substitute cos(x)^2 + sin(x)^2 = 1:

1 = ^?1

Hint: | Come to a conclusion.

Then subtract -500000 = 5794.62498636

Step-by-step explanation:

Why, because the first year is proved 5000 x 0.08 = 400

= 400 year 1 but cna keep only if stays in investment for 10 years

400 x 10 = 4000 interest on investment

Write the set of real numbers x less than 6 in set builder notation

Answers

Answer:

{x ∈ R: x<6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x is a real numberx is less than 6

Required

Write the set using set builder notation

The very first thing to do is to list out the range of x, using inequalities;

x is less than 6 implies that -infiniti < x < 6

The next step is to translate this to set builder. This is done as follows

x ∈ R - > This means that x is a real number

x < 6 -> where x is less than 6.

Bringing these two together, it gives:

{x ∈ R: x<6}

Hence, the set of real numbers x less than 6 is equivalent to {x ∈ R: x<6} using set builder notation

The radius of the semicircle in the following composite figure is 8.5 millimeters. What is the total area of the composite figure rounded to the nearest hundredth?

Answers

Answer:

13.35 millimeter. (About)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area or circumference of any circle, you need to use pi. So, if we are trying to fine the area of a semicircle, you use the the formula:

πr²/2

So, if the radius is 8.5,

8.5 · 3.14 = 26.69

Now we divide it by 2.

26.69 = 13.345

Since the question is asking to round to the hundredths, the answer will be 13.35 millimeters.

The sum of three numbers is 16. The sum of twice the first​ number, 5 times the second​ number, and 6 times the third number is 85. The difference between 4 times the first number and the second number is negative 3. Find the three numbers.

Answers

Answer:

            1, 7, 8

Step-by-step explanation:

x, y, z   -  numbers to find

The difference between 4 times the first number and the second number is negative 3:

4x - y = -3

  - y = -3 - 4x

    y = 3 + 4x

The sum of three numbers is 16:

x + y + z = 16

x + 4x + 3 + z = 16

 5x + z = 13

  z = 13 - 5x

The sum of twice the first​ number, 5 times the second​ number, and 6 times the third number is 85:

2x + 5y + 6z = 85

2x + 5(3 + 4x) + 6(13-5x) = 85

2x + 15 + 20x + 78 - 30x = 85

      -8x + 93 = 85

        -8x = -8

          x = 1

y = 3 + 4•1 = 7

z = 13 - 5•1 = 8

Veryfying:

1 + 7 + 8 = 16

2•1 + 5•7 + 6•8 = 2 + 35 + 48 = 85

A worker needs to create a 4-character password. The worker can use alphabet as well
as number(0-9) and 4 special characters. How many outcomes are possible?

Answers

Answer: 2560000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, A worker needs to create a 4-character password.

Worker can use :

Alphabets, numbers and 4 special characters

Total alphabets = 26

Total digits = 10

So, total characters he can use = 26(alphabets) + 10 (digits) +4 (special characters)

= 26+10+4 = 40

Since, there is no pattern or condition is provided to choose them.

So, the total possible outcomes to create a 4-character password. = [tex](\text{Total characters})^4=40^4=2560000[/tex]

Hence, the total possible outcomes = 2560000

What is the solution of 3square root x+8 = -4?
• x=-72
• x=-66
• x=58
• no solution

Answers

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

I'd suggest you try to solve this first:  3√(x + 8) = 4.  First, square both sides; this results in 9(x + 8) = 16, or x + 72 = 16/9, or x = -632/9.  We cannot let x = -632/9 in √(x + 8) because -632/9 is not in the domain of the square root function.  No solution.

If we now write 3√(x + 8) = -4   (note the negative sign), similar efforts at solution result in 9(x + 8) = -4, or x + 8 = -4/9, or x = -8 - 4/9.  If we now substitute this result for (x + 8) in 3√(x + 8) = -4 (above), we get 3√(-8 + 8 - 4/9), which has no solution; -4/9 is not in the domain of the square root function.

The solution for the given equation is 16.

The given equation is 3√x+8=-4.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

The solution of an equation is the set of all values that, when substituted for unknowns, make an equation true.

The solution for the given equation can be determined as follows:

Now, 3√x+8=-4

⇒ 3√x=-4-8

⇒ 3√x=-12

⇒ √x=-12/3

⇒ √x=-4

Squaring both the sides, we get

x=16

Therefore, the solution for the given equation is 16.
