Explanation:

Draw a vertical number line. Let's say we start at 0 on the number line. Zero means no net change (he doesn't gain weight, nor does he lose weight either).

Losing 8 pounds means we go down 8 units. Think of it like being at the ground level and then going down 8 floors to the basement level of a large building (eg: parking garage maybe).

After this movement, we're at -8 on the number line. Then move up 9 units to arrive at +1 or just 1 on the number line. So Alex has gained those 8 pounds back to his original weight, plus an extra pound. So that's why -8+9 = 1.

Then move down 2 units to get to -1. Lastly, from -1 move 6 units down to get to -7.

So overall, Alex has lost 7 pounds when everything is said and done.

Refer to the diagram below. We start at point A, move to point B after losing 8 pounds, then to C when gaining 9 pounds, and so on until we get to point E. Point E is at -7 on the vertical number line to represent that he lost 7 pounds.

----------------

We can think of it in another way:

add up all the losses to get

loss of 8 + loss of 2 + loss of 6 = loss of 16

So he lost 16 pounds if we ignore the "gained 9 pounds", but we have to account for that. So we'll take 9 away from 16 to get 16-9 = 7.

Overall, Alex lost 7 pounds.

By solving a system of equations, we will see that the rational function is:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{12}{(x + 2)} -3[/tex]

First, we need to see the x-value of the vertical asymptote, here we can see that the vertical asymptote happens at x = -2, then the denominator will be something like:

d = (x - (-2)) = (x + 2).

Then our rational function will be something like:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{a}{(x + 2)} + c[/tex]

In the graph we can see two things, first:

f(0) = 3

f(1) = 1

Replacing that in our function, we get:

[tex]\frac{a}{(0 + 2)} + c = 3\\\\ \frac{a}{(1 + 2)} + c = 1[/tex]

This is a system of equations, that can be rewritten as:

a/2 + c = 3

a/3 + c = 1

Isolathing c in both equations, we get:

a/2 - 3 = -c = a/3 - 1

Then we have:

a/2 - 3 = a/3 - 1

Now we can solve this for a:

a/2 - a/3 = 3 - 1

a/6 = 2

a = 2*6 = 12

And the value of c is given by:

-c = a/3 - 1 = 12/3 - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3

c = -3

Then the rational function is:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{12}{(x + 2)} - 3[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]\frac{3x+1}{x}, x\neq -1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by combining the fractions in the numerator. We can multiply them by x/x and x + 1/x + 1 respectively to get a common denominator of x(x + 1).

[tex]\frac{4}{x+1}*\frac{x}{x} +\frac{2}{x} *\frac{x+1}{x+1}\\\\\frac{4x}{x(x+1)}+\frac{2x+2}{x(x+1)}\\\\\frac{6x+2}{x(x+1)}[/tex]

Now we can rewrite an simplify:

[tex]\frac{\frac{6x+2}{x(x+1)} }{\frac{2}{x+1} }\\\\\\\frac{6x+2}{x(x+1)}*\frac{x+1}{2} \\\\\frac{3x+1}{x}[/tex]

The domain would be x ≠ -1 because the starting domain is [tex]x\neq -1; x\neq 0[/tex] and it changed to [tex]x\neq 0[/tex], so for the two fractions to be equal, the domain would be [tex]x\neq -1[/tex].

97 decibel sound is 2.5 times more intense than a 93 decibel sound

Correct option is C.

Sound intensity also known as acoustic intensity, is defined as the power transmitted by a sound wave per unit area in a direction perpendicular to that area. Sound intensity is the sound power in watts divided by the area (in square meters) covered by the sound. Sound loudness relates the intensity of a particular sound to its strength at the threshold of hearing, measured in decibels (dB).

Given expression for loudness

L = 10 log(I/I₀)

Loudness of two different sounds are

L₁ = 97 decibel and L₂ = 93 decibel.

Let the intensity for the loudness L₁ and L₂ are I₁ and I₂

Then,

L₁ = 10log(I₁/I₀) = 97

⇒ log(I₁/I₀) = 9.7

taking antilog

I₁/I₀ = antilog (9.7)

I₁/I₀ = 5011872336.27271

L₂ = 10log(I₂/I₀) = 93

⇒ log(I₂/I₀) = 9.3

taking antilog

I₂/I₀ = antilog (9.3)

I₂/I₀ = 1995262314.96888

Then,

(I₁/I₀)/(I₂/I₀) = 5011872336.27271/1995262314.96888

I₁/I₂ = 2.51188643 ≈ 2.5

Hence, 2.5 times more intense is 97 decibel sound than 93 decibel sound.

Answer:

The smallest possible value of k is 656

Step-by-step explanation:

The given width of the Eiffel Tower, w₁ = 328 feet

The given height of the Eiffel Tower, h₁ = 984 feet

The width of the space Maria can use on the shirt, w₂ = 0.75 feet

The height of the space she can use on the shirt, h₂ = 1.5 feet

We get;

The ratio of height to width of the Eiffel Tower = h₁/w₁ = 984/328 = 3

The height to width ratio of the space on the shirt = h₂/w₂ = 1.5/0.75 = 2

Therefore, that the aspect ratio of the space on the T-shirt is wider than the Eiffel Tower, the height of the space on the T-shirt is the limiting dimension of the scaled picture of the Eiffel Tower

Therefore, the scale factor, k = The ratio of the actual height of the Eiffel Tower, to the height of the space on the T-shirt

Where 'k' represent the integer value to shrink the Eiffel Tower and fit it on the T-shirt, and 'k' is the smallest ratios of the dimensions of width or height of the tower to the dimensions of the width or height of the space available on the shirt, given that the height to width ratio of the area on the shirt is smaller than that of the Eiffel Tower

Mathematically

k = h₁/h₂

∴ k = 984/1.5 = 656

The scale factor of the height of the Eiffel Tower to the height of the space available on the T-shirt, k = The smallest possible value of k = 656.

Answer:

5/12 hour or 25 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is

distance = rate * time

changing minutes to hours (50 * 1 /60 ) = 5/6 hours

distance = 20 mph * 5/6 hours

distance = 50/3 miles

We need to go the same distance at 40 mph

50/3 = 40 mph * time

Multiply each side by 1/40

50 /3 * 1/40 = 40 * 1/40 *t

50/3 *1/40 =t

5/12  of an hour

Changing back to minutes

The function that represents the exponential graph is, [tex]y = 2^{x+2} + 3[/tex].

The set of ordered pairings (x, y) where f(x) = y makes up the graph of a function.

These pairs are Cartesian coordinates of points in two-dimensional space and so constitute a subset of this plane in the general case when f(x) are real values.

We know a function is called an exponential function when the exponent is the independent variable, For example, aˣ.

From the graph of the function, When x = 0, y = 7.

Observing the options we have,

[tex]y = 2^{x+2} + 3[/tex].

When x = 0.
