If the geometric mean of a and 34 is 6 sqrt(17) find the value of a

Answers

Answer 1

Using the geometric mean concept, it is found that the value of a is 18.

----------------------

The geometric mean, of a data-set of n elements, [tex](n_1, n_2, ..., n_n)[/tex], is given by:

[tex]G = \sqrt[n]{n_1 \times n_2 \times ... \times n_n}[/tex]

That is, the nth root of the multiplication of all elements.

----------------------

In this question:

Two elements(n = 2), a and 34.[tex]G = 6\sqrt{17}[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]\sqrt{34a} = 6\sqrt{17}[/tex]

We find the square of each side, so:

[tex](\sqrt{34a})^2 = (6\sqrt{17})^2[/tex]

[tex]34a = 36\times17[/tex]

Simplifying both sides by 17:

[tex]2a = 36[/tex]

[tex]a = \frac{36}{2}[/tex]

[tex]a = 18[/tex]

The value of a is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

H(x) = 1/x+2 and k(x) = 3x - 4
h[k(x)] =

A.(3x - 4)/(x+2)
B. 1/(4x - 2)
C. 1/(3x - 2)

Answers

Answer:

 = 1/ (3x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

H(x) = 1/(x+2)

k(x) = 3x - 4

h[k(x)] =  place the function k(x) in for x in the function h(x)

           = 1/(3x-4 +2)

Combine like terms

           = 1/ (3x-2)

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

What we need to do is take the value of k(x) which is 3x-4 and plug it into the function h(x).

This is because our x in the function h[k(x)] is k(x), so we will substitute that value for x in that formula and that will give us our answer.

H[(k(x)]=1/(3x-4+2)

And combine like terms

H[(k(x)]=1/(3x-2)

So, our answer is C. 1/(3x-2)

Find the mean, median, and mode of 14, 15, 3, 15, 14, 14, 18, 15, 8, 16.

Answers

Answer:

mean: 13.2 (average)

median: 14.5 (Center)

mode: 14 and 15 (because data is bimodal so there are two modes

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

mean = 13.2, median = 15.5, mode = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

mean = 14+15+3+15+14+14+18+15+8+16/10

= 132/10 = 13.2

median =[ (n/2)th term + (n/2+1)term ]/2

here n is even so this formula is applied and before this is done, the numbers given are to be arranged in ascending or descending order

= [10/2 + (10/2+1)]/2

= [5th term + 6th term]/2

= (15+16)/2

= 31/2 = 15.5

mode = 18

C. quadratic; y = 0.62x2 + 89
D. quadratic; y = 89x2 + 0.62

Answers

Answer:

A. exponential; y = 89 • 0.62x

Step-by-step explanation:

exponential; y = 89 • 0.62^x

Answer:

Option B exponential y = 89 · 0.62x

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the estimated number of deer living in a forest over a five year period.

Year            Number of deers

0                     89

1                      55

2                     34

3                     21

4                     13

Now we have to find the model representing this situation. Difference in number of deer, in the forest.

We can see there is a common ratio between each successive term r =  = 0.618

r =  = 0.618

so it can be represented by an exponential model.

WILL.MARK BRAINLEST. ( The length of a rectangular garden is 5m longer than its breadth .If its perimeter is 150 m,find the area of the garden ) step by step​

Answers

Answer:

1400m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution,

Let the breadth of the rectangle be x m, then the length of the rectangle will be x+5 m,

Now,

Perimeter of the rectangle=2(l+b)

150=2(x+5+x)

150=2(2x+5)

150=4x+10

150-10=4x

140=4x

140/4=x

35=x

So, the breadth of the rectangle=35 m

and length=(35+5)m=40m

Again,

Area of the rectangle=l×b

=40m×35m

=1400 m^2

I hope it helped U

stay safe stay happy

Answer: Area= 1400[tex]meter^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

ok  so  we can assume the

breadth=X

so, length = X+5 (because the length is 5 meters more than the breadth)

perimeter= 150 meters

the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x ( Length + Breadth)

so now if we put the values,

2 * ( X+5 +X) = 150 ( because 150 is the perimeter)

2 * (2X + 5) = 150 (the value became 2x because when we add two variables with the same value it will be written as 2(any variable)).

now we multiply  2 with both sides

so ( 2 * 2X) + (2 * 5)

hence, 4X + 10 = 150

now we will solve the equation,

4X= 150 -10 (because we did transposal the signs will change from "+" to "-")

4x= 140

again with the transposal (when we write a number with a variable it shows that it means the number multiplied by the variable in this case it is 4 multiplied by X ) so when we transpose we will have to divide because multiplication turns into division while transposing

so now,

X= 140÷4

which is equal to 35

so finally X = 35

so as we have written in the beginning breadth= X

and LENGTH= X+5

so now we have found X

BREADTH= 35

LENGTH= 40 (because 35+5 is 40)

now we have to find area the formula for finding the area is LENGTH×BREADTH

so, 40 × 35 = 1400

now we put the unit which is square meters also known as [tex]m^{2}[/tex]

so there is your final answer 1400[tex]m^{2}[/tex]

C.[tex]4x^{2} + 72x + 320[/tex]

D.[tex]-x^{2} - 36x - 320[/tex]

Answers

A photo is usually rectangular in shape. This means that if a frame is to be put around the photo with the same width all round, it means that if the width is "x", then the new length and width will be (l + 2x) and (w + 2x) respectively where l is length and w is width.

Option C is the correct answer

Data Given;

Height of Photo: 16 cm

Width of Photo: 20 cm

Since she wants to put a frame with same width around the photo, let's represent this width as x.

Thus;

New height = 16 + 2x

New width = 20 + 2x

Area of a rectangle is given as:

A = Length * width

Thus, in this case;

A = (16 + 2x) × (20 + 2x)

Multiplying out, we have;

A =  [tex]4x^{2} + 32x + 40x + 320[/tex]

A = 4[tex]x^{2} + 72x + 320[/tex]

Looking at the given options, Option C is the correct answer

CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!! The table of values represents the function g(x) and the graph shows the function f(x).

Answers

Answer: Choice C.  f(x) and g(x) have a common x intercept.

Explanation:

The graph of f(x) shows it has an x intercept at x = 2, since this is one location where the curve crosses the x axis.

The g(x) table shows that x = 2 and y = 0 pair up together. This is the location (2,0). This location is the exact same x intercept as described earlier.

This is the common x intercept the two functions share. This means the two functions cross or intersect at this location.

3. When six is added to six times a number the result obtained is the same as when the number is added to 10 and
the result multiplied by 3. Form an equation and solve it to find the unknown number.

Answers

Answer:

Equation x(6+6)=3(10+x)

x=3.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Form an equation:

x(6+6) The result of 6+6 is multiplied by x, so you would put 6+6 in a bracket (you do what's inside the bracket first in BODMAS) and the x on the outside so you times the result by x.

3(10+x) The number x is added to 10 and the result is multiplied by 3, so the 10+x would go in a bracket with 3 on the outside.

These equal each other, so you would put an equals sign between it to make:

x(6+6)=3(10+x)

Solve to find x:

12x=30+3x You expand the brackets to make this.

9x=30 You would move 3x to the other side by doing the inverse and taking away 3x from 12x.

x=3.33 To get x you would have to do 30 divided by 9 which is 3.33.

Hope this helps :)

Let the number be x,

Establishing, the equation,

6x+6 = 3(x+10)

6(x+1) = 3(x+10)
