Ahmed travel $12\frac{1}{2}$ miles in 5 days walking to school and back.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from house to school = $1\frac{1}{4}$ miles

Distance from school to house = $1\frac{1}{4}$ miles

Total distance in 1 day = $1\frac{1}{4}+1\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}+\frac{5}{4}$

Total distance in 1 day = $\frac{5+5}{4}=\frac{10}{4}$

Distance traveled in 5 days = $5*\frac{10}{4}=\frac{50}{4}$

Distance traveled in 5 days = $\frac{25}{2}=12\frac{1}{2}$

Ahmed travel $12\frac{1}{2}$ miles in 5 days walking to school and back.

maw [93]

Answer:

0.514

Step-by-step Explantion:

Denominator = 500 = 2^2 * 5^3

257/500 = 257/2^2*5^3 = 2*257/2*2^2*5^3 = 514/2^3*5^3 = 514/(2*5)^3 = 514/10^3 = 0.514

Let f(x)=−3x. The graph of f(x) is transformed into the graph of g(x) by a vertical stretch of 4 units and a translation of 4 u

deff fn [24]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Ques 1)

$g(x)=-12x+48$

Ques 2)

$g(x)=|3x|+4$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Ques 1)

We know that if a graph is stretched by a factor of a then the transformation if given by:

f(x) → a f(x)

Also, we know that the translation of a function k units to the right or to the left is given by:

f(x) → f(x+k)

where if k>0 then the shift is k units to the left

and if k<0 then the shift is k units to the right.

Here the graph of f(x) is transformed into the graph of g(x) by a vertical stretch of 4 units and a translation of 4 units right.

This means that the function g(x) is given by:

$g(x)=4f(x-4)\\\\i.e.\\\\g(x)=4(-3(x-4))\\\\i.e.\\\\g(x)=-12(x-4)\\\\i.e.\\\\g(x)=-12x+48$

Ques 2)

We know that the transformation of the type:

f(x) → f(x)+k

is a shift or translation of the function k units up or down depending on k.

If k>0 then the shift is k units up.

and if k<0 then the shift is k units down.

Here, The graph of the function f(x)=|3x| is translated 4 units up.

This means that the transformed function g(x) is given by:

$g(x)=|3x|+4$

Sum of positive roots of the equation (x2 - 12x + 35) (x2 + 10x + 24) = 504 is

Digiron [165]

Answer:

(3)11

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$(x^2-12x+35)(x^2+10x+24)=504$

We have to find the sum of positive roots of the equation.

$x^2(x^2+10x+24)-12x(x^2+10x+24)+35(x^2+10x+24)=504$

$x^4+10x^3+24x^2-12x^3-120x^2-288x+35x^2+350x+840=504$

$x^4-2x^3-61x^2+62x+840-504=0$

$x^4-2x^3-61x^2+62x+336=0$

Factor of 336

2,3,4,6,8,7,

Let x=2

$2^4-2^4-61(2^2)+62(2)+336\neq0$

x=2 is not the root of equation

x=-2

$(-2)^4-2(-2)^3-61(-2)^2+62(-2)+336=0$

Hence x=-2 is the root of equation.

x+2 is a factor of equation.

x=3

$3^4-2(3^3)-61(3^2)+62(3)+336=0$

Therefore, x=3 is the root of equation.

$(x+2)(x-3)(x^2-x-56)=0$

$(x+2)(x-3)(x^2-8x+7x-56)=0$

$(x+2)(x-3)(x(x-8)+7(x-8))=0$

$(x+2)(x-3)(x-8)(x+7)=0$

$x-8=0\implies x=8$

$x+7=0\implies x=-7$

Positive roots are 3 and 8

Sum of positive roots=3+8=11

Option (3) is true.
