The total time spent on his/her cell phone in a year’s time is less than the total time spent waiting in line when shopping in a lifetime.

x= 1825 hrs

z=4929.4 hrs.

This is further explained below.

let's say on average a person spends 5 hours on a mobile phone.

Individual annual mobile phone use time.

x=  5x365

x= 1825 hrs

let's consider an average every day a person, spent 5 minutes in the queue when shopping.

Take the average person. 70-year life for a person.

Hence in a year, he spent

y=365x5 mints

y=1825 min

y=30.42 hrs

Hence lifetime time spent on line

z = 70 x 30.42

Answer:

81m + 27t

Step-by-step explanation:

Using distributive property, this expression can be solved.

So 9(9m + 3t) has operations in it.

9 would be multiplied by whatever is in the parenthesis followed by the variable.

So 9 * 9 = 81.

9 * 3 = 27.

So putting it together with the variables.

It would be:

Answer:

y = 3x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the points (7,8) and (3,-4)

We want to write an equation of the line that passes through those 2 points.

There are 3 ways to write the equation of the line:

Although while any one of these options work, the most common way is to use slope-intercept form, so let's do it that way.

First, we need to find the slope of the line.

The slope (m) can be found using this formula: [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex], where [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] are points.

Even though we already have 2 points, let's label their values to avoid any confusion.

[tex]x_1=7\\y_1=8\\x_2=3\\y_2=-4[/tex]

Now substitute these values into the formula.

m=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

m=[tex]\frac{-4-8}{3-7}[/tex]

Subtract.

m=[tex]\frac{-12}{-4}[/tex]

Divide.

m = 3

The slope of the line is 3.

Here is the equation of the line so far:

y = 3x + b

We now need to find b.

As the equation passes through  (7,8) and (3,-4), we can use either one of the points to help us solve for b.

Taking (7,8) for instance:

Substitute 7 as x and 8 as y in the equation.

8 = 3(7) + b

Multiply

8 = 21 + b

Subtract 21 from both sides

-13 = b

Substitute -13 as b in the equation.

y = 3x - 13

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of the line that passes through the points (7,8) and (3,-4) is y=3x-13.

A line is a one-dimensional shape that is straight, has no thickness, and extends in both directions indefinitely. The equation of line is given by,

y =mx + c

where,

x is the coordinate of the x-axis,

y is the coordinate of the y-axis,

m is the slope of the line, and

c is the y-intercept.

The slope of the equation will be,

Slope, m = (-4-8)/(3-7) = -12/-4 = 3

Substitute one of the points in the equation of the line,

A parabola is represented as:

The quotient of division of a polynomial by a monomial is the sum of quotients of each of the terms divided by the monomial. "Simplify" in this context generally means that no common factors remain factored out.

The rules of exponents apply:

We have elected to retain the original order of variables (z then y) and the original order of terms. Ordinarily, standard form would have the variables in alphabetical order (y then z) and the terms in order by decreasing degree. This order of terms also makes the leading coefficient positive. (The minus sign for a negative leading coefficient sometimes gets lost.)

Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] (8x + 12) = 3 ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

3(8x + 12) = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

8x + 12 = 4 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

8x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )

b. f(2) =10

c. f(-4) = 32

d. f(b) = 3b^2+2b-6

e. f(4a) = 48a^2+8a-6

The function values for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6, for the values are:

a. f(0) = -6

b. f(2) = 10

c. f(-4) = 34

d. f(b) = 3b² + 2b - 6

e. f(4a) = 48a² + 8a - 6

To calculate function value f(k) for a function f(x), we substitute variable x = k, in the function f(x).

In the question, we are asked to find the function value for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6 for:

a. f(0)

b. f(2)

c. f(-4)

d. f(b)

e. f(4a).

We calculate these in the following ways:-

a. f(0):

We substitute the value of x = 0 in the function f(x).

Therefore f(0) = 3(0)² + 2(0) - 6,

or, f(0) = 0 + 0 - 6 = -6.

Therefore, the function value f(0) for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6 is -6.

b. f(2):

We substitute the value of x = 2 in the function f(x).

Therefore f(2) = 3(2)² + 2(2) - 6,

or, f(2) = 12 + 4 - 6 = 10.

Therefore, the function value f(2) for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6 is 10.

c. f(-4):

We substitute the value of x = -4 in the function f(x).

Therefore f(-4) = 3(-4)² + 2(-4) - 6,

or, f(-4) = 48 - 8 - 6 = 34.

Therefore, the function value f(-4) for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6 is 34.

d. f(b):

We substitute the value of x = b in the function f(x).

Therefore f(b) = 3(b)² + 2(b) - 6,

or, f(b) = 3b² + 2b - 6.

Therefore, the function value f(b) for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6 is 3b² + 2b - 6.

e. f(4a):

We substitute the value of x = 4a in the function f(x).

Therefore f(4a) = 3(4a)² + 2(4a) - 6,

or, f(0) = 48a² + 8a - 6.

Therefore, the function value f(0) for the function f(x) = 3x² + 2x - 6 is 48a² + 8a - 6.

Answer:

y = (-2/3)x + 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept. You have been given the value of "m". To find the value of "b", you can plug the slope and the values from the point (2, -1/2) into the general equation.

m = -2/3

Point (2, -1/2):

x = 2 and y = -1/2

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

y = (-2/3)x + b                            <----- Insert -2/3 in "m"

-1/2 = (-2/3)(2) + b                      <----- Insert "x" and "y" values from point

-1/2 = -4/3 + b                            <----- Multiply -2/3 and 2

-3/6 = -8/6 + b                           <----- Give the fractions common denominators

5/6 = b                                      <----- Add 8/6 to both sides

Thus, the equation of the line is:

y = (-2/3)x + 5/6

Where:

Note: The center of a circle lies on the midpoint of the diagonal of a square, which is formed by joining its endpoints (opposite).

Midpoint on x-coordinate is given by:

Midpoint = (-2 - 2)/2

Midpoint = -4/2 = -2.

Midpoint on y-coordinate is given by:

Midpoint = (-2 + 2)/2

Midpoint = 0/2 = 0.

Thus, the center (h, k) = (-2, 0).

For the radius, we have:

The student, who suggests that if we do half and half of each bag, we will be giving them at least 60%, is correct.

The phrase "at least" means the minimum that is true or possible.

Mathematically, by "at least," we mean 'equal to or greater than.'

Since each bag of nuts contain 16 ounces,

The 1st bag contains x/2 ounces (50%) of plain nuts and x/2 ounces (50%) of chocolate-covered nuts.

The 2nd bag contains x/5 ounces (20%)of plain nuts and 4x/5 ounces (80%) of chocolate-covered nuts.

If half of the 1st bag is mixed with half of the 2nd bag, each bag will contain only 65% (that is, 25% (50%/2) from the 1st bag and 40% (80%/2) from the 2nd bag).

x = 24cm

Now, let's find line AC

Sin angle B = line AC/24

Note that to find angle B

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180

But angle B = 2 Angle A

x + 2x + 90 = 180

3x + 90 = 180

3x = 180-90

x = 30°

Angle B = 2 × 30 = 60°

Sin 60 = x/ 24

⇔ 3y + 12 = 2y + 60

⇔ y + 12 = 60

⇔ y = 60 - 12

⇔ y = 48

Answer:

y = 48

Step-by-step explanation:

the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

3y + 12 is an exterior angle of the triangle , so

3y + 12 = y + 30 + y + 30 ( base angles of an isosceles Δ are congruent )

3y + 12 = 2y + 60 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

y + 12 = 60 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

y = 48
