If x-2 is one of the factors of x^4-kx^2+4, find the value of k.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is x⁴-kx²+4 =0

x−2 is a factor of the given expression.

So, x=2

Substitute in the equation, we get

2⁴-k(2)²+4

⇒16+4k+4=0

⇒4k=−20

⇒k=−5

Identify the domain of the function shown in the graph.
A. -5<x<5
B. 0<x<5
C. x is all real numbers.
D. x > 0​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is A choice.

Explanation:

By looking at the graph, we notice that at the left side, the domain/x-value stops at -5 and 5.

Thus, the domain is at the left end side to the right end side.

The domain stops at -5 on the left side and 5 on the right side. Thus the answer is

-5 < x < 5.

The A choice.

Understanding

The domain of a function is basically all the values where x is defined, and by defined, it means it has a y value corresponding to it. In this graph, x is defined from -5 to 5. If you look outside this range of numbers (from -5 to 5 on the x-axis) you will not find any y values for them. We can easily say the solution is A.

Solution:

[A] [tex]-5<x<5[/tex]

Note: From what I see from the picture -5 and 5 are included in the domain, either the question is incorrectly written, or the picture isn't clear enough. If so, the answer should be [tex]-5\leq x\leq 5[/tex].

A 93 L batch of Ropivacaine is being made. The specific gravity is 1.01 g/mL. 196.42 g of Ropivacaine and 799.8g of sodium chloride are added. What is the weight of the water to be added to QS the solution?

Answers

Answer:

92.93378 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Volume of Batch = 93 L

= 93 × 1000     (since 1 L = 1000 mL)

= 93000 mL  

Specific gravity = [tex]\dfrac{density \ of \ solution}{density \ of \ water}[/tex]

where;

density of water = 1 g/ml

specific gravity = 1.01 g/mL

Density of solution = (1.01 × 1) g/mL

Density of solution = 1.01 g/mL

[tex]Density \ of \ solution = \dfrac{mass \ of \ batch }{volume \ of \ batch}[/tex]

mass of batch = 1..01 g/mL × 93000 mL

mass of batch = 93930 g

Now, the mass of additional water = mass of (batch - Ropivaciance - sodium chloride)

= 93930 g - 196.42 g - 799.8 g

= 92933.78  g

Since 1kg = 1000 g

The weight of the water to be added to the QS solution is:

[tex]=\dfrac{92933.78}{1000}[/tex]

= 92.93378 kg

A bungee jumper dives from a bridge over a river. The function ℎ(푡) = −16푡 % +5푡 +250 gives the approximate height h in feet of the jumper until he hits the water for the first time. The variable t is measured in seconds.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Given the function:

ℎ(t)= −16t+5t+250

Where the variable t is measured in seconds. We can plug in t=20 seconds in the function to measure the height in feet of the bungee jumper after 20 seconds.

h(t)= -16×20+5×20+250

h(t)= -320+100+250

h(t)=350-320

h(t)= 30feet

height in feet of the bungee jumper after 20 seconds = 30 feet

A polynominal function that describes an enclosure is v(x)=1500x_x2 where x is the length of the fence in feet what is the maximum area of the enclosure

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynominal function that describes an enclosure is v(x)=1500x-x2 where x is the length of the fence in feet what is the maximum area of the enclosure

Solution:

The maximum area of the enclosure is gotten when the differential with respect to x of the enclosure function is equal to zero. That is:

V'(x) = 0

V(x) = x(1500 - x) = length * breadth.

This means the enclosure has a length of x and a width of 1500 - x

Given that:

v(x)=1500x-x². Hence:

V'(x) = 1500 -2x

V'(x) = 0

1500 -2x = 0

2x = 1500

x = 1500 / 2

x = 750 feet

The maximum area = 1500(750) - 750² = 562500

The maximum area = 562500 feet²

Answer:

562500 feet²

Let $r$ and $s$ be the roots of $3x^2 + 4x + 12 = 0.$ Find $r^2 + s^2.$

Answers

Use a similar strategy as in your other question, [19925664].

3x² + 4x + 12 = 3 (x - r ) (x - s)

3x² + 4x + 12 = 3 (x² - (r + s) x + rs)

3x² + 4x + 12 = 3x² - 3 (r + s) x + 3rs

so that

r + s = -4/3

rs = 12/3 = 4

Recall that

(r + s)² = r² + 2rs + s²

so that

r² + s² = -2rs = -2(4) = -8

Which are the intercepts of the equation y+2=4(x+1) ?

Answers

Answer:

*3rd option*

y intercept (0, 2)

x intercept (-1/2 , 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, rearrange the equation so y is on one side, the rest of the terms on the other.

y+2 = 4x + 4

y = 4x+2

The y intercept is 2 because x=0, y = 2

rearrange where x is on one side

4x = -y + 2

x = -1/4y - 1/2

The x intercept is -1/2 because when y=0, x=-1/2
