Answer:
See Explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^2 - x -6}{x^2 - 9}[/tex]
Required
Why is the function not continuous at x = 3
First substitute 3 for x at the denominator
[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^2 - x -6}{x^2 - 9}[/tex]
Factorize the numerator and the denominator
[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 3x+2x -6}{x^2 - 3^2}[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = \frac{x(x - 3)+2(x -3)}{(x - 3)(x+3)}[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = \frac{(x+2)(x - 3)}{(x - 3)(x+3)}[/tex]
Divide the numerator and denominator by (x - 3)
[tex]f(x) = \frac{x+2}{x+3}[/tex]
Substitute 3 for x
[tex]f(3) = \frac{3+2}{3+3}[/tex]
[tex]f(3) = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]
Because [tex]f(x) = \frac{x^2 - x -6}{x^2 - 9}[/tex] is defined when x = 3;
Then the function is continuous
Answer:
A: f is not defined at x = -3

Triangle TQRS Find the value of x.
O x = 2
O x = 3
O x= 33
O x= 52
Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for x, we will follow the steps below:
First note that exterior angle =two opposite interior angle
From the diagram below
(25x) ° + (57 + x)° = (45x)°
25x° + 57° + x° = 45x°
next step is to collect the like term
45x° - 25 x° - x° = 57°
19x° = 57°
Divide both-side of the equation by 19
19x°/ 19 = 57° /19
On the left-hand side of the equation 19 will cancel out 19 leaving us with just x° while on the right-hand side of the equation 57 will be divided by 19
x = 3
(1/16)^(x+3) = (1/4)^(x+1)
Answer:

Help me with this please I have no idea what to do. It says solve for a if the line through the two given points has the given slope a, 3) and (-3, - 1), m = -2
Answer:
a=-5
Step-by-step explanation:
When you do this every time the slope will go down 2 and over 1 which is rise over run or slope. You can see the y coordinates go down 4 points and every time is should go down 2 so you will know that it would have gone down 2 times so a+2 should equal -3 so if we subtract 2 from both sides we would get a=-5 and that is our answer.
Answer:
a = - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula and equate to - 2
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }[/tex]
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 3, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (a, 3)
m = [tex]\frac{3+1}{a+3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{a+3}[/tex] = - 2 ( multiply both sides by a + 3 )
- 2(a + 3) = 4 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
a + 3 = - 2 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
a = - 5

Find the surface area of the right triangular prism shown below.
Answer:
144 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of a traingular prism is given as:
Area = 2(B.A) + P*L
Where,
B.A = base area of the triangular prism = ½*b*h
b = base of the triangular base = 4 units
h = height of the triangular base = 3 units
Base Area (B.A) = ½*4*3 = 2*3 = 6 units²
P = Perimeter of triangular face = sum of all sides the triangle = 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 units
L = length or height of prism = 11 units
Plug in all values into the formula for surface area of triangular prism = 2(B.A) + P*L
[tex] Area = 2(6) + 12*11 [/tex]
[tex] = 12 + 132 [/tex]
[tex] Surface Area = 144 [/tex]
Surface area of the triangular prism = 144 units²

Answer:
x = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
In a circle, the sum of the angles that meet at a point is 360 degrees. So now that we have the total, we can subtract all the given information in the picture. We have 84, 75, 68, and x + 73. Now let us set up and equation for this problem.
360 = 84 + 75 + 68 + x + 73
Now combine like terms.
360 = x + 300
Now subtract 300 on both sides.
x = 60
And this is the value of x.
Answer:
50 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
84 + 75 + 68 = 227
227 - 360 = 133
133 - 73 = 50
The answer is 50 degrees.

The Point at manatee Springs = S
As we can see that there are two triangles namely TMB and TSE.
Mentioned that
MTB = ∠STE
∠TMB = ∠TSE
∠TBM = ∠TES.
According to the Angle-angle-angle (AAA similarity)
So, the triangles TMB and TSE are the same.
[tex]\frac{TM}{TS} = \frac{TB}{TE} \\\\ \frac{TM}{4,200} = \frac{2,000}{3,500}[/tex]
So, the TM is 2400 yds
Now the Distance between Main gate M and manatee Spring S is
MS = MT + TS
= 2,400 + 4200
= 6600 yds
Now the MS is
= 6600 × 0.0009144 km
= 6.035 km
≅ 6 km

What is the result of subtracting the second equation from the first? \begin{aligned} -2x+7y &= 10 \\\\ 3x+7y &= 2 \end{aligned} −2x+7y=10 3x+7y=2
Answer:
-5x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The result is shown here. The y-terms cancel.
[tex]\begin{array}{rccc}& -2x+7y &= &10 \\-&(\ \,3x+7y &= &2)\\\cline{1-4}&-5x+0y&=&8 \end{array}[/tex]
The simplified result is ...
-5x = 8
Answer:
The result is that 5x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to subtract 3x + 7y = 2 from -2x + 7y = 10
Mathematically that would be;
(-2x+7y)-(3x+7y) = 10-2
-2x + 7y -3x -7y = 8
-2x -3x + 0 = 8
-5x = 8 or 5x = -8

The Department of Health in the United Kingdom wants to know whether the healthcare system is achieving its goals in Scotland. Much information about healthcare comes from patient records, but that source doesn't allow us to compare people who use health services with those who don't. Therefore, the Department of Health conducted the Scotland Health Survey, which was used to interview a random sample of 34,572 people who live in Scotland.
Part A: What is the population for this sample survey? What is the sample? (4 points)
Part B: The survey found that 70% of males and 87% of females in the sample had visited a general practitioner at least once during the past year. Do you think these estimates are close to the truth about the entire population? Explain. (6 points)
Answer:
A. the population for this sample survey is 34,572 people, and the sample is the people who live in Scotland.
B. The estimates are close to the truth about the entire population.

Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{87.5 \, \%}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the original number of books
Then 0.375x = the total number of biographies
and 0.20 x = the original number of biographies
[tex]\text{Percent increase} = \dfrac{\text{ New number - Old number }}{\text{Old number }} \times 100\, \%\\\\= \dfrac{0.375x - 0.20x}{0.20x} \times 100\, \% = \dfrac{0.175x}{0.20x} \times 100\, \% = 0.875 \times 100\, \% = \mathbf{87.5 \, \%}\\\\\text{The number of biographies has increased by $\large \boxed{\mathbf{87.5 \, \%}}$}[/tex]
An oblique prism has trapezoidal bases and a vertical height of 10 units. An oblique trapezoidal prism is shown. The trapezoid has base lengths of x and 2 x, and a height of x. The distance between the 2 trapezoid bases is 20. The vertical height of the prism is 10. Which expression represents the volume of the prism? 10x3 cubic units 15x2 cubic units 20x3 cubic units 30x2 cubic units
Answer:
volume of trapezoidal prism = 15x^2 cubic units
Step-by-step explanation:
First, area of the trapezoidal bases.
Parallel sides measure x and 2x, for an average of 1.5x.
Height = x
Area of trapezoidal base = 1.5x*x = 1.5x^2
Volume of prism = area base * height
(length does not matter, height does)
= 1.5x^2 * 10 = 15x^2
The volume of the prism is 15x² cubic units if the oblique prism has trapezoidal bases and a vertical height of 10 units option (B) 15x² cubic units is correct.
What is a trapezoid?It is defined as the quadrilateral having four sides in which two sides are parallel to each other, it is a 2-dimensional geometry.
The question is incomplete.
The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.
It is given that:
An oblique prism has trapezoidal bases and a vertical height of 10 units.
As we know, the area of the trapezoidal bases:
From the figure:
Height = x
Area of trapezoidal base = (1.5x)(x) = 1.5x²
The volume of prism = area base×height
= 1.5x²×10 = 15x² cubic units
Thus, the volume of the prism is 15x² cubic units if the oblique prism has trapezoidal bases and a vertical height of 10 units option (B) 15x² cubic units is correct.
