If f(x)=x²-16 is continuous at x = -4, find f(-4).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-4) means x = -4 so then plug -4 into the function.

y = -4²-16

y = 0

Answer 2

Answer:

f(-4) =0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x²-16

Let x = -4

f(-4) = (-4)^2 -16

       =  16-16

       = 0

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the value of k for which the polynomial equation f(x)=x^3-kx+12 has the root of x=-4

Answers

If x = -4 is a root of f(x), then dividing f(x) by x + 4 leaves a remainder of 0.

Compute the quotient,

(x³ - kx + 12) / (x + 4)

x³ = x² • x, and

x² (x + 4) = x³ + 4x²

Subtract this from the dividend (f(x)) to get an initial remainder of

(x³ - kx + 12) - (x³ + 4x²) = -4x² - kx + 12

-4x² = -4x • x, and

-4x (x + 4) = -4x² - 16x

Subtract this from the previous remainder to get a new one of

(-4x² - kx + 12) - (-4x² - 16x) = (16 - k) x + 12

(16 - k) x = (16 - k) • x, and

(16 - k) (x + 4) = (16 - k) x + 64 - 4k

which gives the next remainder,

((16 - k) x + 12) - ((16 - k) x + 64 - 4k) = 4k - 52

4k - 52 does not divide x, so we're done and what we've shown is

f(x) / (x + 4) = x² - 4x + 16 - k + (4k - 52)/(x + 4)

(just gathering the bold terms above and the last remainder)

The remainder should be 0, so that

4k - 52 = 0

4k = 52

k = 13

Solving the radical [tex]4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{18})[/tex] we get [tex]\mathbf{-16\sqrt{30}+72}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the radical: [tex]4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{18})[/tex]

Prime factors of 18 are: 2x3x3

Replacing [tex]\sqrt{18}[/tex] with its factors

[tex]4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{18})\\=4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{2\times3\times3})\\=4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{2\times3^2})[/tex]

We know that [tex]\sqrt{3^2}=3[/tex]

[tex]=4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\times3\sqrt{2})\\=4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+9\sqrt{2})[/tex]

Multiplying [tex]4\sqrt{2}[/tex] with terms inside the bracket

[tex]=4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15})+4\sqrt{2}( 9\sqrt{2}))\\=-16\sqrt{2}\sqrt{15}+36\sqrt{2} \sqrt{2}[/tex]

We know that [tex]\sqrt{2} \sqrt{2}=2[/tex]

[tex]=-16\sqrt{2*15}+36(2)\\=-16\sqrt{30}+72[/tex]

So, solving the radical [tex]4\sqrt{2}(-4\sqrt{15}+3\sqrt{18})[/tex] we get [tex]\mathbf{-16\sqrt{30}+72}[/tex]

a.0^2 +1^2=1
b.0^2 +(-1)^2=1
c. 1^2+0^2=1
d.(-1)^2+0^2=1

Answers

Answer: For This Specific Question it is B, But there is a question very similar that doesn't have the pi's in the equation and the answer to that one is A.

Step-by-step explanation: Very sorry if this is confusing :)

Pythagorean identities are three basic identities for trigonometric ratios. The equation that is of the form [tex]\sin^2(\pi) + \cos^2(\pi) =1[/tex] is given by: Option B: [tex]0^2 + (-1)^2 = 1[/tex]

Equations which shows that the Pythagorean identities are true will be verifying them for some specific angles. For that we need to know about Pythagorean identities.

What are Pythagorean identities?

[tex]sin^2(\theta) + cos^2(\theta) = 1\\\\1 + tan^2(\theta) = sec^2(\theta)\\\\1 + cot^2(\theta) = csc^2(\theta)[/tex]

Using the first Pythagorean Identity to get one of its special case

For angle being [tex]\pi[/tex] radians(or equal to 180 degrees), we have:

[tex]sin(\pi) = 0\\cos(\pi) = -1[/tex]

Thus, for the first Pythagorean identity at angle [tex]\pi[/tex] radians, we get:

[tex]sin^2(\pi) + cos^2(\pi) = 1\\\\0^2 + (-1)^2 = 1[/tex]

Thus, the equation that is of the form [tex]\sin^2(\pi) + \cos^2(\pi) =1[/tex] is given by: Option B: [tex]0^2 + (-1)^2 = 1[/tex]

b) You can draw the graph around x=1 without lifting your pencil. The function is continuous at x=1.

Additional comment

In technical terms, the limit from the left at x=0 is 2; the limit from the right is 3. These are different, so the function is not continuous there.

On the other hand, the left and right limits at x=1 are the same (both 2), and are equal to the value of the function at that point (f(1)=2). Hence, the function is continuous at x=1.

The length of a picture frame is 1cm less than twice the width(frame is NOT a square). The area is 28cm^2. Find the length and width of the picture frame.

Answers

Answer:

length is 7cm, and the width is 4cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a picture frame is 1cm less than twice the width(frame is NOT a square). The area is 28cm^2. Find the length and width of the picture frame.

The area of the frame = Length * Width

A = LW

If the length of a picture frame is 1cm less than twice the width, then;

L = 2W - 1

Substitute into the formula;

A = (2W-1)W

A = 2W^2 - W

28 = 2W^2 - W

2W^2 - W - 28 = 0

2W^2 - 8W +7W- 28 = 0

2W(W-4)+7(W-4) = 0

2W+7 = 0 and W - 4 = 0

W =- -7/2 and W = 4

Width cannot be negative

W = 4cm

Since A = LW

L = A/W

L = 28/4

L = 7cm

Hence the length is 7cm, and the width is 4cm

Equation: y = 4x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️The y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0. From the table of values, it shows that when x = 0, y = -5. Therefore:

y-intercept (b) = -5

✔️using two pairs from the table, (1, -1) and (2, 3):

[tex] Slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{3 -(-1)}{2 - 1} = \frac{4}{1} = 4 [/tex]

Slope = 4

✔️To write an equation for the function, substitute m = 4, and b = -5 into y = mx + b.

Thus:

y = 4x +(-5)

Suppose the  real measurements were "a" and "b"

This shows that to get the real measurements from the given ratio, we need to assume to have some factor possibly cancelled from both the numerator and the denominator.

Thus, a = px, b = qx

Given Number of sharks = 4

Number of dolphins = 5

Therefore, the ratio of sharks to dolphins

= 4 : 5

Or  1 : 1.25

Number of animals = number of sharks + number of dolphins

Number of animals = 4 + 5 = 9
