The weight that a horizontal beam can support varies inversely as the length of the beam. Suppose that a 2-m beam can support 410 kg. How many kilograms can a 1-m beam support?

x/3-10=8

x/3=18

x=48

g(x) = 3*(8(3^(x−2))+2)

g(x) = 24 (3^(x-2) )+6

the factor is 2

step-by-step explanation:

let f(x)=8(3^(x−2)+2)

to stretch a graph by 3, it would be 3f(x)

g(x) =3f(x)

g(x) = 3*(8(3^(x−2))+2)

g(x) = 24 (3^(x-2) )+6

x     −2     0     2     4     6

f(x) 1/64 1/16   1/4     1     4

1/64 * z * z = 1/16

i multiplies by z twice because it its 2 steps from -2 to 0

1/64 z^2 = 1/16

multiply by 64 to clear the fraction on the left side

1/4 * 64 z^2 =1/16 *64

z^2 = 4

take the square root of each side

sqrt(z^2) = ±sqrt(4)

z = ±2  

we are multiplying by 2 each time.

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   (7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

discussion:

in general, the factorization of a^3 + b^3 is

a^3 + b^ 3 = (a + b) ( a^2 - ab + b^2)

in our case note that 343 = 7^3 and 216 = 6^3 so the equation becomes:

343x^3 + 216y^3 = (7x)^3 + (6y)^3

if you think of a (above) as 7x and b as 6y the factorization becomes

343x^3 + 216y^3 =

((7x + 6y) (   (7x)^2 - 7x*6y + (6y)^2)   =

(7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

(a + b) (a^2 - a b + b^2)

a_n = a_1 + (n - 1)d

the first term is 6.

the common difference d = ?

when you find d, replace n with 7 and d with the common difference to find your answer.
