a) x and y are two numbers taken from the list below.
5,6,7,8,9,10

(i) What values of x and y will make 3x - 2y equal zero? x=? Y=?

(ii) Work out the greatest possible value of 3x - 2y.

(iii) Work out the least possible value of 3x - 2y.

b) Find the value of
5(a - 4b) when a = -7 and b= 1/4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)

i) we have the equation:

3*x - 2*y

We want to find a common multiple of 3 and 2.

One can be:

3*6 = 18

2*9 = 18

And both numbers 6 and 9 are on the list, then if we take:

x = 6, y = 9

we get:

3*6 - 2*9 = 18 - 18 = 0

The solution is x = 6, y = 9.

ii) The greatest possible value of:

3*x - 2*y

Will be when x is the largest value of the list (because it is on the positive term) and y is the smallest value on the list (because it is on the negative term)

then we need to have x = 10, y = 5

The value will be:

3*10 - 2*5 = 30 - 10 = 20

iii) Now we want to have the smallest value on x, and the largest one on y, then:

x = 5, y = 10

The smallest value of the equation will be:

3*5 - 2*10 = 15 - 20 = -5

B) We want to solve:

5*(a - 4*b)

when:

a = -7

b = 1/4

This is kinda easy, we just need to replace the variables in the equation to get:

5*(a - 4*b) = 5*(-7 - 4*(1/4)) = 5*(-7 - 4/4) = 5*-8 = -40

Suppose an object is launched from ground level directly upward at 57.4 f/s Write a function to represent the object’s height over time.

Answers

Answer: p(t) = (-16 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t

Step-by-step explanation:

We can suppose that the only force acting on the object is the gravitational force, then the acceleration of the object will be equal to the gravitational acceleration.

Then we can write:

a(t) = -32 ft/s^2

Where the negative sign is because this acceleration is downwards.

Now, to get the vertical velocity of the object, we need to integrate over time to get:

v(t) = (-32 ft/s^2)*t + v0

where t represents time in seconds and v0 is the constant of integration, and in this case, is the initial vertical velocity.

In this case, the initial velocity is 57.4 ft/s upwards, then the velocity equation is:

v(t) = (-32 ft/s^2)*t + 57.4 ft/s

To get the position equation we need to integrate over time again, to get:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-32 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t + p0

Where p0 is the initial height of the object, as it was launched from the ground, then the initial position is p0 = 0ft.

then the position equation (that is the function that represents the height of the object as a function over time) is:

p(t) = (1/2)*(-32 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t

p(t) = (-16 ft/s^2)*t^2 + (57.4 ft/s)*t

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we multiply both sides by 7, un order to get the variable by itself. this is the important step.

-56 = n

then, we just simply swap the sides in order to get the variable on the left. (not necessary, just looks like a proper equation that way.)

n = -56

-8 = n/7

Answers

Answer: 1. $45*1.07 | $45(1.07) 2. (0.85)*32 represent the final price of the cake in dollars because (0.85) is the 15% off in decimals.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 if you multiply 45 by 1.07 it will be 48.15 and that's the final cost of the book, same with $45(1.07) is just another way to represent the multiplication.

2 As I said the 0.85 represent the 15% off, and when you multiply it will be less.
