The closest point is (3.5, 1.9) and the distance is 1.96 units

The coordinate is given as:

(4, 0)

The equation of the function is

y = √x

The distance between two points is calculated using

d = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

So, we have the following points

(x1, y1) = (4, 0) and (x2, y2) = (x, 0)

This gives

d = √(x - 4)^2 + (√x - 0)^2

Evaluate the difference

d = √(x - 4)^2 + (√x)^2

Evaluate the exponent

d = √x^2 - 8x + 16 + x

Evaluate the like terms

d = √x^2 - 7x + 16

Next, we differentiate using a graphing calculator

d' = (2x - 7)/[2√(x^2 - 7x + 16)]

Set to 0

(2x - 7)/[2√(x^2 - 7x + 16)] = 0

Cross multiply

2x - 7 = 0

Add 7 to both sides

2x = 7

Divide by 2

x = 3.5

So, we have:

Substitute x = 3.5 in y = √x

y = √3.5

Evaluate

y = 1.9

So, the point is (3.5, 1.9)

The distance is then calculated as:

d = √(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

This gives

d = √(3.5 - 4)^2 + (1.9 - 0)^2

Evaluate

d = 1.96

Hence, the closest point is (3.5, 1.9) and the distance is 1.96 units

Using the triangle midsegment theorem, the length of AC in the given triangle is: 40 units.

The midsegment of a triangle can be defined as the line segment that intersects two sides of a triangle at their midpoints. This means that, the sides they intersect is bisected forming two equal halves.

In a typical triangle, there are three midsegments in the triangle. For example, in the image given in the attachment below, the midsegments of the triangle are: DF, FB, and BD. All midsegments are parallel to the third sides of a triangle.

What is the Triangle Midsegment Theorem?

According to the triangle midsegment theorem, the length of the midsegment (i,e. DF) is parallel to the third side (i.e. AC) and also half the length of the third side (AC).

We are given the following:

EC = 30

DF = 20

Applying the triangle midsegment theorem, we have:

DF = 1/2(AC)

Substitute

20 = 1/2(AC)

2(20) = AC

40 = AC

AC = 40 units.

Answer:

y = 2x² − 12x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

FIRST METHOD :

y = 2x² − 12x + 8

  = (2x² − 12x) + 8

  = 2 (x² − 6x) + 8

  = 2 (x² − 6x + 9 − 9 ) + 8

  = 2 (x² − 6x + 9) − 2×9 + 8

  = 2 (x² − 6x + 9) − 18 + 8

  = 2 (x² − 6x + 9) − 10

  = 2 (x − 3)² − 10

Then ,the equation has a extremum value of (3,-10)

Since the number 2 in the equation y = = 2 (x − 3)² − 10 is greater than 0

(2 > 0) , the graph (parabola) opens upward

Therefore ,the extremum (3,-10) is a minimum.

SECOND METHOD :

the graph of a function of the form f(x) = ax² + bx + c

has an extremum at the point :

[tex]\left( -\frac{b}{2a} ,f\left( -\frac{b}{2a} \right) \right)[/tex]

in the equation : f(x) = 2x² − 12x + 8

a = 2  ; b = -12  ; c = 8

Then

[tex]-\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{-12}{2 \times 2} = 3[/tex]

Then

[tex]f\left( -\frac{b}{2a} \right) = f(3) = 2(3)^2- 12(3) + 8 = 18 - 36 + 8 = -18 + 8 = -10[/tex]

the graph of a function f(x) = 2x² − 12x + 8

has an extremum at the point (3 , -10)

Since the parabola opens up ,then the extremum (3,-10) is a minimum.

a) The polynomial f(x) in expanded form is f(x) = x³ + 10 · x² - 20 · x - 24.

b) The rational function g(x) in factored form is g(x) = [(x - 6) · (x + 3)] / (x - 2). there is no slant asymptotes.

c) There is one evitable discontinuity at x = - 1, and one definitive discontinuity at x = 2, where there is a vertical asymptote.

a) In the first part of this question we need to determine the equation of a polynomial in expanded form, derived from its factor form defined below:

f(x) = Π (x - rₐ), for a ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4, ..., n}         (1)

Where rₐ is the a-th root of the polynomial.

If we know that r₁ = 6, r₂ = - 1 and r₃ = - 3, then the polynomial in factor form is:

f(x) = (x - 6) · (x + 1) · (x + 3)

f(x) = (x - 6) · (x² + 4 · x + 4)

f(x) = (x - 6) · x² + (x - 6) · (4 · x) + (x - 6) · 4

f(x) = x³ - 6 · x² + 4 · x² - 24 · x + 4 · x - 24

f(x) = x³ + 10 · x² - 20 · x - 24

The polynomial f(x) in expanded form is f(x) = x³ + 10 · x² - 20 · x - 24.

b) The rational function is introduced below:

g(x) = (x³ + 10 · x² - 20 · x - 24) / (x² - x - 2)

g(x) = [(x - 6) · (x + 1) · (x + 3)] / [(x - 2) · (x + 1)]

g(x) = [(x - 6) · (x + 3)] / (x - 2)

The slope of the slant asymptote is:

m = lim [g(x) / x] for x → ± ∞

m = [(x - 6) · (x + 3)] / [x · (x - 2)]

m = 1

And the intercept of the slant asymptote is:

n = lim [g(x) - m · x] for x → ± ∞

n = Non-existent

Hence, there is no slant asymptotes.

c) There is vertical asymptote at a x-point if the denominator is equal to zero. There is one evitable discontinuity at x = - 1, and one definitive discontinuity at x = 2, where there is a vertical asymptote.

Answer:

( 0, -3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + y = -3 ⇒ ( 1 )

3x - 8y = 24 ⇒ ( 2 )

We can make y the subject of equation 1.

y = 5x - 3 ⇒ ( 3 )

Now let us take equation 2.

Here we can replace y with ( 5x - 3 ) to find the value of x.

Value of x.

3x - 8y = 24

3x - 8 (5x - 3) = 24

3x - 40x + 24 = 24

-37x = 0

x = 0

Now let us take equation 3 to find the value of y.

Here we can replace x with 0.

Let us find it now.

y = 5x - 3

y = 5 × 0 - 3

y = 0 - 3

y = -3

The given triangle has three angles with measurements: ∠A = 69°, ∠B = 52°, and ∠C = 59° respectively. Using the law of cosines, these angles are calculated from the given lengths of the triangle.

The law of cosines gives the relationship between the lengths of sides and the angles of the triangle ABC.

According to the law of cosines:

Cos A = (b² + c² - a²)/2bc

Cos B = (a² + c² - b²)/2ac

Cos C = (a² + b² - c²)/2ab

For the given triangle ABC,

a = 75, b = 63, and c = 69

So, using the law of cosines,

Cos A = (b² + c² - a²)/2bc

⇒ Cos A = (63² + 69² - 75²)/2×63×69

⇒ Cos A = 5/14

⇒ A = Cos⁻¹(5/14) = 69.07

∴ ∠A = 69°

Similarly,

Cos B = (a² + c² - b²)/2ac

⇒ Cos B = (75² + 69² - 63²)/2×75×69

⇒ Cos B = 31/50

⇒ B = Cos⁻¹(31/50) = 51.6 ≅ 52

∴ ∠B = 52°

Cos C = (a² + b² - c²)/2ab

⇒ Cos C = (75² + 63² - 69²)/2×75×63

⇒ Cos C = 179/350

⇒ C = Cos⁻¹(179/350) = 59.2

∴ C = 59°

Thus, the angles of the triangle ABC are 69°, 52°, and 59° respectively.

Considering the definition of conditional probability, the probability that the team will win the second game given that they have already won the first game is 45.33%.

Probability is the greater or lesser chance that a given event will occur.

In other words, the probability establishes a relationship between the number of favorable events and the total number of possible events.

Conditional probability is the probability that a given event will occur given that another event occurs. The conditional probability operator is the │ sign.

In other words, the conditional probability is the probability of some event A , given the occurrence of some other event B and is denoted by P(A|B) and is read “the probability of A , given B ”.

Then, when an event influences the outcome of a second event, the probability of the second event is said to be a conditional probability and is calculated using the expression:

P(A|B)= P(A∩B) ÷ P(B)

The probability that of 6 randomly selected patients, 4 will recover is 0.03295

The chance of an event occurring is defined by probability.

Because the favorable number of outcomes can never exceed the entire number of outcomes, the chance of an event occurring might range from 0 to 1. Additionally, the proportion of positive outcomes cannot be negative.

The ratio of good outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability.

Let X represent the binomial random variable that represents the patient count. Let p represent the likelihood that the patient will survive, and q represent the probability that they will pass away. The solution to the problem is q = 75% = 0.75, p = 25% = 0.25, and n = 6.

Required probability = 6C4[tex](0.25)^{4} (0.75)^{2}[/tex]

                                = 0.03295

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin by filling in x as -2 and y as √12 in the given expression:

[tex]2(3(-2)^3+2(\sqrt{12})^2)[/tex].  Work inside the parenthesis first and deal with those exponents:

(-2)³ is the same as (-2)(-2)(-2) which is -8;

(√12)² is the same as (√12)(√12) which is √144 which is 12.

Filling those simplifications in:

[tex]2(3(-8)+2(12))=2(-24+24)=2(0)=0[/tex]

1. According to the affordability formulas given, Joe-Bob cannot afford to take out another loan.

2. Joe-Bob should follow the affordability formulas if he wants to live without financial stress caused by debts.

3. Joe-Bob may decide not to follow the affordability formula, if he can reduce his fixed monthly payments or increase his income.

4. Taking out the car loan will force Joe-Bob to increase his DTI and reduce his savings, investments, and discretionary spending.

Affordability refers to a person's financial ability to afford some fixed expenses without impacting negatively the variable expenses.

Affordability can be measured as a Debt To Income (DTI) ratio.

Current monthly income = $3,500

Monthly mortgage payment = $900

Monthly student loan payment = $350

Total monthly debt payment = $1,250

Debt To Income (DTI) = 35.7% ($1,250/$3,500 x 100)

Thus, with a DTI of 36%, Job Bob should not take out an additional car loan.
