Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No answer is possible

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can identify what the parabola looks like.

A parabola of form ax²+bx+c opens upward if a > 0 and downward if a < 0. The a is what the x² is multiplied by, and in this case, it is positive 2. Therefore, this parabola opens upward.

Next, the vertex of a parabola is equal to -b/(2a). Here, b (what x is multiplied by) is 1 and a =2, so -b/(2a) = -1/4 = -0.25.

This means that the parabola opens upward, and is going down until it reaches the vertex of x=-0.25 and up after that point. Graphing the function confirms this.

Given these, we can then solve for when the endpoints of the interval are reached and go from there.

The first endpoint in -2 ≤ f(x) ≤ 16 is f(x) = 2. Therefore, we can solve for f(x)=-2 by saying

2x²+x-4 = -2

add 2 to both sides to put everything on one side into a quadratic formula

2x²+x-2 = 0

To factor this, we first can identify, in ax²+bx+c, that a=2, b=1, and c=-2. We must find two values that add up to b=1 and multiply to c*a = -2  * 2 = -4. As (2,-2), (4,-1), and (-1,4) are the only integer values that multiply to -4, this will not work. We must apply the quadratic formula, so

x= (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)

x = (-1 ± √(1-(-4*2*2)))/(2*2)

= (-1 ± √(1+16))/4

= (-1 ± √17) / 4

when f(x) = -2

Next, we can solve for when f(x) = 16

2x²+x-4 = 16

subtract 16 from both sides to make this a quadratic equation

2x²+x-20 = 0

To factor, we must find two values that multiply to -40 and add up to 1. Nothing seems to work here in terms of whole numbers, so we can apply the quadratic formula, so

x = (-1 ± √(1-(-20*2*4)))/(2*2)

= (-1 ± √(1+160))/4

= (-1 ± √161)/4

Our two values of f(x) = -2 are (-1 ± √17) / 4 and our two values of f(x) = 16 are (-1 ± √161)/4 . Our vertex is at x=-0.25, so all values less than that are going down and all values greater than that are going up. We can notice that

(-1 - √17)/4 ≈ -1.3 and (-1-√161)/4 ≈ -3.4 are less than that value, while (-1+√17)/4 ≈ 0.8 and (-1+√161)/4 ≈ 2.9 are greater than that value. This means that when −2 ≤ f(x) ≤ 16 , we have two ranges -- from -3.4 to -1.3 and from 0.8 to 2.9 . Between -1.3 and 0.8, the function goes down then up, with all values less than f(x)=-2. Below -3.4 and above 2.9, all values are greater than f(x) = 16. One thing we can notice is that both ranges have a difference of approximately 2.1 between its high and low x values. The question asks for a value of a where a ≤ x ≤ a+3. As the difference between the high and low values are only 2.1, it would be impossible to have a range of greater than that.

Find the sum of a 22-term arithmetic sequence, where the first term is 7 and the last term is 240.

after 2 years the population of a town will be 33620 at the population growth rate of 2.5% pa find the present population of the town.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an exponential equation is [tex]y=a(b)^x[/tex] where y is the final count of the population after some time, x, goes by; a is the initial or starting amount of people (our unknown), and b is the growth rate. For us, y is 33620, the time is x = 2 years, and the growth rate is .025; but if we are growing we are expanding on the amount that we started with, so b = 100% + 2.5% = 102.5% and in decimal form, 1.025.

[tex]33620=a(1.025)^2\\33620=1.050625a[/tex] so

a = 32000

The initial population is 32000

Step-by-step explanation:

log2( x^2 -x+2) = 1+2log2(x)

Rewriting 1 as log2(2)

log2( x^2 -x+2) = log2(2)+2log2(x)

We know that a log b = log a^b

log2( x^2 -x+2) = log2(2)+log2(x^2)

we know log a + log b = log (ab)

log2( x^2 -x+2) = log2(2*x^2)

Since the bases are the same the terms inside must be equal

x^2 -x+2 = 2x^2

Subtract 2x^2 from each side

-x^2 -x+2 = 0

Multiply by -1

x^2 +x-2 = 0

Factor

(x+2)(x-1)=0

Using the zero product property

x+2 = 0  x-1=0

x=-2  x=1

Checking the solutions

log2( x^2 -x+2) = 1+2log2(x)

X cannot be negative because 2 log2(x) cannot be negative

log2( 1^2 -1+2) = 1+2log2(1)

x=1

If 2 < 20x - 13 < 3. what is one possible value for x?

Answers

Answer:

one possible value for x is 31/40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's isolate the 20x term.  Add 13 to all three terms:

2 + 13 < 20x - 13 + 13 < 3 + 13

and this simplifies to:

15 < 20x < 16

Dividing all three terms by 20, we get:

15/20 < x < 16/20

A fraction halfway between 15/20 and 16/20 is (31/20)/2, so

one possible value for x is 31/40.

Check by substituting this into the original equation and checking whether that equation is now true:

2 <20(31/40) - 13 < 3

or

2 < 31/2 < 16, or 2 < 15.5 < 16 (this is true, so 31/40 is a solution)

The difference between the annual and semi-annual compound interest on a sum of money is Rs 482 at the rate of 20 % per annum for 2 years. Find the sum.​

Answer:

And, when interest is compounded semi - Annually,

→ Rate = (20/2) = 10% .

→ Time = 2 * 2 = 4 Years.

So,

→ successive Rate of 10% for 4 Years = (2*10 + (10*10/100) = 21% Now, => 21*2 + (21*21/100) = 42 + 4.41 = 46.41% .

A/q,

→ (46.41%) - 44% = 482

In a right angled triangle, the sine of an angle is the length of the side opposite the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.

Formula for sine of an angle

sin θ = opposite side w.r.t θ / hypotenuse

According to the given question

We have

A right angle triangle EFG, in which

∠G = 90 degree

EG = 11

FE = 61

and,  GF = 60

Now, the opposite side with respect to ∠F is GE

and the hypotenuse is EF

Therefore, sine of ∠F = side which is opposite w.r.t ∠F/ hypotenuse

⇒ [tex]sinF=\frac{GE}{EF}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]SinF=\frac{11}{61}[/tex]

Hence, the ratio which represents the sine of ∠F is [tex]\frac{11}{61}[/tex].
