According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2010 21,495 workers in Wake County had a daily commute between 45 and 59 minutes. By 2016 the number of workers with this long of a commute had increased by 82%. How many Wake County workers had a 45-59 minute commute in 2016?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: about 39,121 workers

=======================================================

Explanation:

Ignore the "45" and "59" as they aren't used in this problem. The year numbers don't matter either.  These numbers are either thrown in as filler or distraction.

We're basically being asked "we started with 21,495 and increased by 82%, what is the new value?"

Take 82% of this to get 0.82*21495 = 17,625.9 which rounds to 17,626 since it doesn't make sense to have a decimal or fractional portion of a person. So the number of workers has increased by about 17,626 people.

Add this to the original amount to get 21,495 + 17,626 = 39,121 which is the answer

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

As a shortcut, you could multiply 21495 by 1.82 to indicate an 82% increase

1.82*21495 = 39,120.9 which rounds to 39,121

Write the equation of the line that goes through the point
(7, 10) and is parallel to the line y = 2x + 5

Answers

Use point slope equation.

Since parallel, the slope is the same. Then jsut plug in the numbers to the formula (u can google this)

y - 10 = 2 (x - 7)

^^this is point slope form

for slope intercept:

y = 2x - 4

Answer:

[tex]y=2x-4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we want to write an equation of a line that goes through the point (7,10) and is parallel the the line y=2x+5.

First, we can determine the slope of our new line. Parallel lines always have the same slope. In other words, the slope of our new line must also be 2.

Now, we can use the point-slope form to find our equation:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Let's let (7,10) be x₁ and y₁. Let's also substitute 2 for m. Thus:

[tex]y-10=2(x-7)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]y-10=2x-14[/tex]

Add 10 to both sides:

[tex]y=2x-4[/tex]

And we're done!

The formula B = 100 + 75m gives the balance (B) of a bank account after (m) months of saving. Solve for m and then use your solution to find the number of months you would need to save to have a balance of $700.

Answers

Answer:

8 Months

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula in the problem (B = 100 + 75m) can be written as this:

(B-100)/75 = M

The problem gives us the balance (B=700), which we can plug into our new formula to find the number of months (m).

(700-100)/75 = M

M = 8

Find all x-intercepts and y-intercepts of the graph of the function . f(x) = - x ^ 3 + x ^ 2 + 12x If there is more than one answer, separate them with commas. Click on "None" if applicable.

Answers

Answer:

The y-intercept is (0,0)

The x-intercepts are (-3,0), (0,0), and (4,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

[tex]f(x)=-x^3+x^2+12x[/tex]

And we want to solve for the x- and y-intercepts.

Y)

To solve for the y-intercept, recall that the y-intercept is when the graph touches the y-axis. At that point, the x values is 0. Thus, to find the x-intercept, substitute 0 for x:

[tex]f(x)=-(0)^3+(0)^2+12(0)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]f(x)=0[/tex]

So, the y-intercept is (0,0)

X)

To solve for the x-intercept(s), set the function equal to 0 and solve for x:

[tex]0=-x^3+x^2+12x[/tex]

First, factor out a negative x:

[tex]0=-x(x^2-x-12)[/tex]

Factor within the parentheses:

[tex]0=-x(x-4)(x+3)[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]-x=0\text{ or } x-4=0\text{ or } x+3=0[/tex]

Divide by -1 on the first one. Add 4 on the second one. And subtract 3 on the right:

[tex]x=0\text{ or } x=4\text{ or } x=-3[/tex]

So, our x-intercepts are:

[tex](-3,0), (0,0), (4,0)[/tex]

Darren drives to school in rush hour traffic and averages 30 mph. He returns home in mid-afternoon when there is less traffic and averages 40 mph. What is the distance between his home and school if the total traveling time is 1 hr 45 min?

Answers

Answer:

Distance problems are word problems that involve the distance an object will travel at a certain average rate for a given period of time.

The formula for distance problems is: distance = rate × time or d = r × t.

Things to watch out for:

Make sure that you change the units when necessary. For example, if the rate is given in miles per hour and the time is given in minutes then change the units appropriately.

It would be helpful to use a table to organize the information for distance problems. A table helps you to think about one number at a time instead being confused by the question.

Mylie went by the gas station to get 2.4 gallons of gas. She paid with a $10 bill and a $5 bill and received $4.68 as change. What was the cost for one gallon of gas before taxes? $4.30 $8.20 $10.32 $24.77

Answers

We don't know what tax percentage or amount is so we have to keep this part out.

Add to find how much she paid with.

10 + 5 = $15

Subtract to find how much she paid.

15 - 4.68 = $10.32

Divide to find the unit price.

10.32 / 2.4 = $4.30 per gallon

33 points!! The line contains the point (4,-2) and is perpendicular to 4x+3y=-6 The equation of the line is:

Answers

Answer:

y = 3/4 x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals. We find the slope of the given line. Then we can find the slope of the reciprocal.

4x + 3y = -6

Solve for y.

3y = -4x - 6

y = -4/3 x - 2

The slope of the original line is -4/3.

The slope of the perpendicular is 3/4.

Now we need to find the equation of line with slope 3/4 that contains point (4, -2).

y = mx + b

-2 = (3/4)(4) + b

-2 = 3 + b

-5 = b

b = -5

The equation is

y = 3/4 x - 5

Solve for the function X(s) in the Laplace domain by taking the Laplace transform of the following differential equations with given initial conditions. dx +9x = 161, where x(0) = 0 and (0) = 5

Answers

Answer:

X(s) = 2/[s³(s + 9)]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

Solve for the function X(s) in the Laplace domain by taking the Laplace transform of the following differential equations with given initial conditions.

dx/dt + 9x = 16t²     x(0) = 0 and dx(0)/dt = 5

Solution

dx/dt + 9x = 16t²

Taking the Laplace transform of the differential equation, we have

L{dx/dt + 9x} = L{16t²}

L{dx/dt} + L{9x} = L{16t²}

L{dx/dt} + 9L{x} = 16L{t²}

sL{x} - x(0) + 9L{x}  = 16L{t²}

L{x} = X(s)

L{t²} = 2!/s³

Substituting X(s) and L{t²} into the equation above, we have

sX(s) - x(0) + 9X(s) = 2!/s³

Substituting x(0) = 0 into the equation above, we have

sX(s) - x(0) + 9X(s) = 2!/s³

sX(s) - 0 + 9X(s) = 2!/s³

sX(s) + 9X(s) = 2!/s³

Factorizing X(s), we have

(s + 9)X(s) = 2!/s³

X(s) = 2/[s³(s + 9)]

So X(s) in the Laplace domain is

X(s) = 2/[s³(s + 9)]
