For the functions $f(x) = \frac{18}{x - 2}$ and $g(x) = x^2 - 1$ , what is the value of $f(g(3))$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The value of the composite function

f(g(3))

is 3.

To evaluate the composite function

f(g(3))

, we start by evaluating the inner function

g(3) = 3^2 - 1 = 8

. We then substitute this result into the outer function, giving

f(8) = \frac{18}{8 - 2} = \frac{18}{6} = 3

.

Cevap: 11

Cevap

The value of the expression is 11.

Factoring the quartic polynomial

x^4 - 13x^2 + 36

as a quadratic in

x^2

yields

(x^2 - 9)(x^2 - 4)

. Applying the difference of squares identity to each factor gives

(x - 3)(x + 3)(x - 2)(x + 2)

. Matching these to the template

(x - r_1)(x - r_2)(x - r_3)(x - r_4)

with the condition

r_1 < r_2 < r_3 < r_4

yields

r_1 = -3

,

r_2 = -2

,

r_3 = 2

, and

r_4 = 3

3

The correct answer is

3

. Substituting

y = x - 3

into

x^2 + y^2 = 9

gives

x^2 + (x - 3)^2 = 9

. Expanding this yields

2x^2 - 6x = 0

, which factors as

2x(x - 3) = 0

. Since

x > 0

, the

x

3

. Substituting

x = 3

back into the linear equation gives

y = 3 - 3 = 0

. Therefore,

x + y = 3 + 0 = 3

.

Substitute the linear equation into the quadratic equation.

x^2 + (x - 3)^2 = 9

This reduces the system of two variables to a single quadratic equation in terms of

x

.

2

Expand the squared binomial and simplify the equation.

x^2 + (x^2 - 6x + 9) = 9 \implies 2x^2 - 6x = 0

Expanding

(x - 3)^2

yields

x^2 - 6x + 9

. Subtracting

9

from both sides simplifies the equation.

3

Factor the quadratic equation to solve for

110

adult,

60

student) by the corresponding elements of the first column of matrix

B

(ticket prices:

\$15

adult,

\$10

student) and summing the products:

110 \times 15 + 60 \times 10 = 1650 + 600 = 2250

60

student tickets sold on Saturday). Matrix

B

is

\begin{bmatrix} 15 \\ 10 \end{bmatrix}

(representing the prices of

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $15.00

Cevap

The price of a single roll of wrapping paper was $15.00.

The correct answer is

15.00. By representing the price of a roll of wrapping paper as

W

and the price of a box of greeting cards as

G

, the problem states that

W = \frac{3}{4}G

, which means

G = \frac{4}{3}W

. The total revenue equation is

20W + 25G = 800

. Substituting

G

gives

20W + 25\left(\frac{4}{3}W\right) = 800

, which simplifies to

20W + \frac{100}{3}W = 800

. Multiplying the entire equation by 3 to clear the fraction results in

60W + 100W = 2400

. Combining like terms gives

160W = 2400

, which yields

W = 15$.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define variables for the unknowns and translate the price relationship into an algebraic equation.

Let

W

be the price of a roll of wrapping paper and

G

be the price of a box of greeting cards. The relationship is given by

W = \frac{3}{4}G

, which can be rearranged to express

G

in terms of

W

:

G = \frac{4}{3}W

.

Expressing one variable in terms of another allows us to set up a single-variable linear equation.

2

Write the linear equation representing the total revenue from the fundraiser sales.

The total revenue from selling 20 rolls of wrapping paper and 25 boxes of greeting cards is

20W + 25G = 800

. Substituting

G = \frac{4}{3}W

gives:

20W + 25\left(\frac{4}{3}W\right) = 800

, which simplifies to

20W + \frac{100}{3}W = 800

.

This sets up the equation that we need to solve to find the value of

W

.

3

Clear the fraction by multiplying all terms by 3 and solve for

W

.

Multiplying the entire equation by 3 yields:

3(20W) + 3\left(\frac{100}{3}W\right) = 3(800) \implies 60W + 100W = 2400

. Combining like terms gives

160W = 2400

. Dividing by 160 yields

W = 15

.

Clearing the denominator simplifies the equation to a standard linear form that can be solved directly.

A system of equations consists of a parabola with the equation $y = x^2$ and a line with the equation $y = 3x - 2$ . The line and the parabola intersect at two points, $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ . What is the product of the $y$ -coordinates, $y_1 \cdot y_2$ , of these two points?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4

Cevap

The product of the y-coordinates of the intersection points is 4.

Solving the system of equations by setting

x^2 = 3x - 2

leads to the quadratic equation

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

, which factors as

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

. The x-coordinates of the intersection points are

x = 1

and

x = 2

. Substituting these into

y = x^2

gives the corresponding y-coordinates as

y = 1^2 = 1

and

y = 2^2 = 4

. The product of these y-coordinates is

1 \cdot 4 = 4

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Equate the two equations to find the x-coordinates of the intersection points.

x^2 = 3x - 2

Since both equations are solved for y, setting them equal to each other allows us to find the x-coordinates where they intersect.

2

Move all terms to one side to set the quadratic equation to zero.

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

This puts the equation in the standard form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

, which can be solved by factoring.

3

Factor the quadratic equation.

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

, so

x_1 = 1

and

x_2 = 2

Factoring shows that the values of x that satisfy the equation are the roots of the quadratic.

4

Substitute the x-coordinates back into the equation of the parabola to find the y-coordinates.

For

x_1 = 1

,

y_1 = 1^2 = 1

. For

x_2 = 2

,

y_2 = 2^2 = 4

.

Substituting x into either of the original equations gives the corresponding y-coordinates of the intersection points.

5

Calculate the product of the y-coordinates.

1 \cdot 4 = 4

The question asks for the product of the y-coordinates, so we multiply

The correct answer is found by first calculating the outer side length, which is the inner side length plus twice the walkway width:

(3s - 2) + 2(s + 3) = 5s + 4

. Squaring this yields the outer area of

25s^2 + 40s + 16

. The inner area is

(3s - 2)^2 = 9s^2 - 12s + 4

. Subtracting the inner area from the outer area and distributing the negative sign properly gives

(25s^2 + 40s + 16) - (9s^2 - 12s + 4) = 16s^2 + 52s + 12

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Determine the outer side length of the square including the walkway.

The outer side length is

(3s - 2) + 2(s + 3) = 3s - 2 + 2s + 6 = 5s + 4

yards.

Since the walkway surrounds the garden on all sides, the width of the walkway must be added to both ends of the garden's side length.

2

Calculate the area of the outer square and the inner square garden by squaring their respective side lengths.

Outer Area =

(5s + 4)^2 = 25s^2 + 40s + 16

and Inner Area =

(3s - 2)^2 = 9s^2 - 12s + 4

.

The area of a square is equal to the square of its side length.

3

Subtract the inner garden area from the outer area to find the walkway area, distributing the negative sign to all terms of the inner area.

Walkway Area =

(25s^2 + 40s + 16) - (9s^2 - 12s + 4) = 25s^2 + 40s + 16 - 9s^2 + 12s - 4 = 16s^2 + 52s + 12

square yards.

The area of the walkway is the difference between the total outer area and the inner garden area.

Cevap: $-1.5 \le y \le 2.5$

Cevap

-1.5 \le y \le 2.5

To solve the inequality

2 - 3|1 - 2y| \ge -10

, we first isolate the absolute value term by subtracting 2 from both sides to get

-3|1 - 2y| \ge -12

, and then dividing both sides by

-3

. Since we divide by a negative number, the inequality sign reverses, giving

|1 - 2y| \le 4

. We rewrite this as the compound inequality

-4 \le 1 - 2y \le 4

. Subtracting 1 from all parts yields

-5 \le -2y \le 3

. Finally, dividing by

-2

and reversing the inequality signs gives

2.5 \ge y \ge -1.5

, which is rewritten from least to greatest as

-1.5 \le y \le 2.5

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Subtract 2 from both sides of the inequality to begin isolating the absolute value term.

-3|1 - 2y| \ge -12

Isolating the absolute value expression allows us to rewrite it as a standard inequality.

2

Divide both sides by

-3

and reverse the inequality sign because of division by a negative number.

|1 - 2y| \le 4

Dividing by a negative value requires reversing the inequality direction to preserve the truth of the statement.

3

Rewrite the absolute value inequality as a compound inequality.

-4 \le 1 - 2y \le 4

An inequality of the form

|u| \le c

(where

c > 0

) is equivalent to the compound inequality

-c \le u \le c

.

4

Subtract 1 from all parts of the compound inequality.

-5 \le -2y \le 3

y

in the middle.

5

Divide all parts of the compound inequality by

-2

and reverse the inequality signs.

2.5 \ge y \ge -1.5

, which is equivalent to

-1.5 \le y \le 2.5

Dividing by the negative coefficient

-2

requires reversing the direction of all inequality signs.

For what positive integer value of $x$ is the rational expression $\frac{2x - 5}{3x^2 - 10x - 8}$ undefined?

Aşağıdaki boşlukları doldurun

The expression is undefined when

x

is equal to .

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The expression is undefined when the positive integer x is equal to 4.

The rational expression is undefined when its denominator is 0. Setting the denominator

3x^2 - 10x - 8

equal to 0 and factoring gives

(3x + 2)(x - 4) = 0

. The roots of this equation are

x = -\frac{2}{3}

and

x = 4

. Since the question restricts the target value to a positive integer, the correct value is 4.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set the denominator of the rational expression equal to 0.

3x^2 - 10x - 8 = 0

A rational expression is undefined when its denominator is equal to 0 because division by zero is undefined.

2

Factor the quadratic equation

3x^2 - 10x - 8 = 0

.

(3x + 2)(x - 4) = 0

Factoring the quadratic trinomial helps identify the values of x that satisfy the equation.

3

Solve for the roots by setting each factor to 0.

x = -\frac{2}{3}

or

x = 4

According to the zero product property, if the product of two factors is zero, then at least one of the factors must be zero.

4

Filter the solutions based on the given constraint.

x = 4

The question specifies that x must be a positive integer. Since

-\frac{2}{3}

is a negative fraction, we reject it and select 4.

The correct matrix is obtained by performing row-by-column matrix multiplication, which yields row 1 entries of 6 and 2, and row 2 entries of 3 and 7.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply the first row of

A

by the first column of

B

to find the element in the first row, first column of the product matrix.

2(3) + 0(0) = 6

The row-by-column rule dictates that the entry at row

i

, column

j

of the product is the dot product of row

i

of the first matrix and column

j

of the second matrix.

2

Multiply the first row of

A

by the second column of

B

to find the element in the first row, second column.

2(1) + 0(2) = 2

This determines the top-right entry of the resulting matrix.

3

Multiply the second row of

A

by the first column of

B

to find the element in the second row, first column.

1(3) + 3(0) = 3

This determines the bottom-left entry of the resulting matrix.

4

Multiply the second row of

A

by the second column of

B

to find the element in the second row, second column.

1(1) + 3(2) = 1 + 6 = 7

This determines the bottom-right entry of the resulting matrix.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $x = \frac{1}{2}$ and $x = 2$

Cevap

The solutions are

x = \frac{1}{2}

and

x = 2

.

The correct answer provides the exact solutions to the equation. Multiplying the equation by

2

yields

2x^2 - 5x + 2 = 0

. Factoring this expression gives

(2x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

, which yields the solutions

x = \frac{1}{2}

and

x = 2

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Multiply the entire equation by

2

to clear the fraction.

2x^2 - 5x + 2 = 0

Converting the equation to integer coefficients simplifies factoring or applying the quadratic formula.

2

Identify the coefficients

a

,

b

, and

c

to use in the quadratic formula.

a = 2

,

b = -5

,

c = 2

These coefficients correspond to the standard quadratic form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

.

3

Calculate the discriminant

b^2 - 4ac

.

(-5)^2 - 4(2)(2) = 25 - 16 = 9

The discriminant determines the number and type of solutions.

4

Substitute the coefficients and the discriminant into the quadratic formula:

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

.

x = \frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{9}}{2(2)} = \frac{5 \pm 3}{4}

This formula provides the exact solutions to any quadratic equation.

5

Evaluate the two cases for the plus/minus sign.

x = \frac{5 + 3}{4} = 2

and

x = \frac{5 - 3}{4} = \frac{1}{2}

Splitting the formula into positive and negative branches yields the two distinct real roots.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\frac{7}{3}$

Cevap

The positive difference between the two solutions is

\frac{7}{3}

.

Rearranging the equation

3x^2 + 5x = 2

by subtracting

2

from both sides gives the standard quadratic equation

3x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0

. Factoring this expression yields

(3x - 1)(x + 2) = 0

. Setting each factor to zero gives the solutions

x = \frac{1}{3}

and

x = -2

. The positive difference between these solutions is

\frac{1}{3} - (-2) = \frac{1}{3} + 2 = \frac{7}{3}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Rearrange the quadratic equation into standard form

ax^2 + bx + c = 0

.

3x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0

Before factoring a quadratic equation, all terms must be moved to one side so that the equation is set to zero.

2

Factor the quadratic expression by finding two binomials that multiply to

3x^2 + 5x - 2

.

(3x - 1)(x + 2) = 0

Since the product of

3

and

-2

is

-6

, we look for factors of

-6

that sum to

5

, which are

6

and

-1

. Splitting the middle term yields

3x^2 + 6x - x - 2 = 3x(x + 2) - 1(x + 2) = (3x - 1)(x + 2)

.

3

Use the zero-product property to solve for

x

by setting each binomial factor to zero.

3x - 1 = 0 \Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{3}

and

x + 2 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -2

If the product of two quantities is zero, at least one of the quantities must be zero.

4

Calculate the positive difference between the two solutions.

|\frac{1}{3} - (-2)| = |\frac{1}{3} + 2| = \frac{7}{3}

The positive difference is the absolute value of the subtraction of one root from the other.

Alternatif Yöntem

Alternatively, the quadratic formula can be used. Once the equation is rewritten as

3x^2 + 5x - 2 = 0

, substitute

a=3

,

b=5

, and

c=-2

into

x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

to get

x = \frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{25 - 4(3)(-2)}}{6} = \frac{-5 \pm 7}{6}

. This simplifies to

x = \frac{1}{3}

and

x = -2

. The positive difference between these values is

\frac{1}{3} - (-2) = \frac{7}{3}

The greatest integer value of

y

that satisfies the inequality is

-4

.

Subtracting 9 from both sides of

9 - 2y \geq 16

gives

-2y \geq 7

Cevap: $\begin{bmatrix} 6,950 \\ 7,650 \end{bmatrix}$

Cevap

The column matrix with first row 6,950 and second row 7,650

The total revenue for each store is found by calculating the product of the sales matrix

N

and the price matrix

P

. This multiplication is performed by taking the dot product of each row in

N

with the column in

P

. For the first row (Downtown store), the calculation is

40 \times 80 + 25 \times 150 = 3,200 + 3,750 = 6,950

. For the second row (Uptown store), the calculation is

30 \times 80 + 35 \times 150 = 2,400 + 5,250 = 7,650

. Combining these results yields the column matrix containing 6,950 and 7,650.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the matrix multiplication to calculate the revenue, multiplying the sales matrix

N

by the price matrix

P

.

NP = \begin{bmatrix} 40 & 25 \\ 30 & 35 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 80 \\ 150 \end{bmatrix}

To find the total revenue for each store, the number of units sold (organized by store in rows and product type in columns) must be multiplied by the unit prices (organized by product type in rows).

2

Calculate the revenue for the Downtown store by taking the dot product of the first row of

N

and the column of

P

.

40 \times 80 + 25 \times 150 = 3,200 + 3,750 = 6,950

This combines the units sold of each headphone model at the Downtown store with their respective prices to find the store's total revenue.

3

Calculate the revenue for the Uptown store by taking the dot product of the second row of

N

and the column of

P

.

30 \times 80 + 35 \times 150 = 2,400 + 5,250 = 7,650

This combines the units sold of each headphone model at the Uptown store with their respective prices to find the store's total revenue.

4

Combine the results into the final product matrix.

\begin{bmatrix} 6,950 \\ 7,650 \end{bmatrix}

The resulting matrix contains the total revenues for the Downtown store in the first row and the Uptown store in the second row.

Instead of setting up the entire matrix multiplication, calculate the total revenue for the first store (Downtown) individually:

The correct answer is 6 because performing the matrix multiplication

AB

yields the matrix

\begin{bmatrix} 2x + 3y & -x + 15 \\ -4 + 4y & 22 \end{bmatrix}

. Equating this to matrix

C

gives the equations

-x + 15 = 11

, which yields

x = 4

, and

-4 + 4y = 4

, which yields

y = 2

. The sum of these values is

4 + 2 = 6

. This is verified by checking the remaining equation

2(4) + 3(2) = 14

algebraically.

AB = \begin{bmatrix} x(2) + 3(y) & x(-1) + 3(5) \\ -2(2) + 4(y) & -2(-1) + 4(5) \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 2x + 3y & -x + 15 \\ -4 + 4y & 22 \end{bmatrix}

To solve for the variables, we must first determine the resulting matrix from the multiplication of

A

and

B

.

2

Set up equations by equating the entries of

AB

with the corresponding entries of matrix

C

.

2x + 3y = 14

Two matrices are equal if and only if all of their corresponding elements are equal.

3

Solve the single-variable equation from the first row, second column for

x

.

-x + 15 = 11 \implies -x = -4 \implies x = 4

Isolating

x

gives its numeric value.

4

Solve the single-variable equation from the second row, first column for

y

.

-4 + 4y = 4 \implies 4y = 8 \implies y = 2

Isolating

y

gives its numeric value.

Verify consistency with the remaining equation and calculate the final sum

x + y

.

2(4) + 3(2) = 8 + 6 = 14

(consistent), and

An agricultural cooperative packages a premium seed mixture containing rye grass, fescue, and bluegrass. The weight of the fescue in the mixture is $10$ pounds less than twice the weight of the rye grass. The weight of the bluegrass is $15$ pounds more than half the weight of the fescue. If the total weight of the mixture is $120$ pounds, how many pounds of bluegrass are in the mixture?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 40

Cevap

The weight of the bluegrass in the mixture is 40 pounds.

By translating the given relationships into equations (

f = 2r - 10

,

b = \frac{1}{2}f + 15

, and

r + f + b = 120

), we can express all variables in terms of

r

, yielding

r + (2r - 10) + (r + 10) = 120

. Solving this gives

r = 30

. Substituting this back gives the weight of bluegrass as

30 + 10 = 40

pounds.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define variables for each type of grass in the mixture.

Let

r

represent the weight of rye grass,

f

represent the weight of fescue, and

b

represent the weight of bluegrass.

Establishing variables is necessary to translate the verbal descriptions into algebraic terms.

2

Translate the given relationships into equations.

f = 2r - 10

and

b = \frac{1}{2}f + 15

The problem states the fescue is 10 pounds less than twice the rye grass, and the bluegrass is 15 pounds more than half the fescue.

3

Substitute the expression for f into the equation for b to express b solely in terms of r.

b = \frac{1}{2}(2r - 10) + 15 = r - 5 + 15 = r + 10

Reducing the number of variables simplifies the system of equations.

4

Set up the total weight equation and solve for r.

r + (2r - 10) + (r + 10) = 120 \implies 4r = 120 \implies r = 30

The sum of the three grass weights is given as 120 pounds.

5

Calculate the weight of the bluegrass using the value of r.

b = 30 + 10 = 40

The question asks specifically for the weight of the bluegrass.
