In warmer climates, approximate temperature predictions can be made by counting the number of chirps of a cricket during a minute. The Fahrenheit temperature
decreased by forty is equivalent to one-third of the number of cricket chirps.
(a) Write an equation for this relationship.
(b) Approximately how many chirps per minute should be recorded if the temperature is 90°F?
(c) If a person recorded 72 cricket chirps in a minute, what would be the Fahrenheit temperature according to this formula?
(a) Let F represent the Fahreheit temperature and let x represent the number of chirps. The equation for this relationship is
(Use integers or fractions for any numbers in the expression.)

Answers

Answer 1

The relationship between temperature and the number of chirps based on the information given goes thus :

150 chips 64°F[tex] f - 40 = \frac{x}{3}[/tex]

Let :

Temperature = f ; number of cricket chirps = n[tex] f - 40 = \frac{n}{3}[/tex]

1.) Chirps per minute if temperature is 90°F

Put f = 40°F into the equation :

[tex] 90 - 40 = \frac{n}{3}[/tex]

[tex] 50 = \frac{n}{3}[/tex]

[tex] n = 50 \times 3 = 150 chirps [/tex]

2.) Fahrenheit temperature if n = 72

[tex] f - 40 = \frac{72}{3}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex] 3(f - 40) = 72[/tex]

[tex] 3f - 120 = 72[/tex]

[tex] 3f = 72 + 120 [/tex]

[tex] 3f = 192[/tex]

[tex] f = \frac{192}{3} = 64 [/tex]

3.)

The equation for the relationship with f = Fahrenheit temperature and x = number of chirps

[tex] f - 40 = \frac{x}{3}[/tex]

Checking for a perfect cube :

2.1    x3 - 2x2 + 2x - 1  is not a perfect cube

Trying to factor by pulling out :

2.2      Factoring:  x3 - 2x2 + 2x - 1  

Thoughtfully split the expression at hand into groups, each group having two terms :

Group 1:  2x - 1  

Group 2:  -2x2 + x3  

Pull out from each group separately :

Group 1:   (2x - 1) • (1)

Group 2:   (x - 2) • (x2)

Bad news !! Factoring by pulling out fails :

The groups have no common factor and can not be added up to form a multiplication.

Polynomial Roots Calculator :

2.3    Find roots (zeroes) of :       F(x) = x3 - 2x2 + 2x - 1

Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of  x  for which   F(x)=0  

 

Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers  x  which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers

The Rational Root Theorem states that if a polynomial zeroes for a rational number  P/Q   then  P  is a factor of the Trailing Constant and  Q  is a factor of the Leading Coefficient

In this case, the Leading Coefficient is  1  and the Trailing Constant is  -1.

The factor(s) are:

of the Leading Coefficient :  1

of the Trailing Constant :  1

Let us test ....

     1       1        1.00        0.00      x - 1  

The Factor Theorem states that if P/Q is root of a polynomial then this polynomial can be divided by q*x-p Note that q and p originate from P/Q reduced to its lowest terms

In our case this means that

  x3 - 2x2 + 2x - 1  

can be divided with  x - 1

remainder      -  x2  +  2x  -  1  

- divisor  * -x1      -  x2  +  x      

remainder             x  -  1  

- divisor  * x0             x  -  1  

remainder                0

Quotient :  x2-x+1  Remainder:  0  

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.5     Factoring  x2-x+1  

The first term is,  x2  its coefficient is  1 .

The middle term is,  -x  its coefficient is  -1 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +1  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   1 • 1 = 1  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  1  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -1 .

     -1    +    -1    =    -2  

     1    +    1    =    2  

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

Conclusion : Trinomial can not be factored

Canceling Out :

2.6    Cancel out  (x-1)  which appears on both sides of the fraction line.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 inches. If the length is 2 more than the width, what is the length and width?

Only an algebraic solution is accepted

Answers

Answers:

Length = 13 inches

Width = 11 inches

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

Work Shown:

w = width, some positive number

w+2 = length, since it is 2 inches more than the width

P = perimeter of the rectangle

P = 2(width + length)

P = 2(w + w+2)

P = 2(2w+2)

P = 4w+4

We're told that the perimeter is 48 inches. So we'll set the previous result equal to 48 and solve for w.

P = 48

4w+4 = 48

4w = 48-4

4w = 44

w = 44/4

w = 11

The width is 11 inches.

w+2 = 11+2 = 13

The length is 13 inches.

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

Checking the answers:

P = 2(L+W)

P = 2(13+11)

P = 2(24)

P = 48

The answers are confirmed.

2L + 2W = 48

L + W = 24

(W + 7) + W = 24

W = 8.5 inches

L = 15.5 inches

7/9 < 5/6

We find the LCM of 9 and 6 which is 18.

For the first fraction, 6 multiplied by 3 is 18 so we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 3 to get:

5/6 = 5*3/6*3 = 15/18

For the second fraction, 9 multiplied by 2 is 18 so we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2 to get:

7/9 = 7*2/9*2 = 14/18

We can see that 5/6 is greater than 7/9.

7/9=14/18. 5/6=15/18

7/9 <. 5/6

Absolute value means how far are you from zero on the number line.

absolute value of | -18| for example is 18  

this means that you are at -18 on the number line that is 18 points away from zero.

and absolute value of |18 | is 18

this means that you are at point 18 on the positive direction on the number line. That is 18 points away from zero.

6[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can start by figuring out how many nails can be produced by 1 machine in 15 minutes. Since 3 machines can produce 16 [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] nails per 15 minutes, we can figure this out by dividing the number of nails produced by 3.

16 [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] divided by 3 equals [tex]\frac{81}{48}[/tex] which can be simplified to 1 [tex]\frac{11}{16}[/tex]. This means that in 15 minutes, one machine can produce 1 [tex]\frac{11}{16}[/tex] nails. Since 15 minutes is 1/4 of an hour, we multiply the nails and minutes by 4, and  1[tex]\frac{11}{16}[/tex] times 4 equals 6[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]. Therefore, 1 machine can produce 6[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] nails in one hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.  Replace m with -3/4 and y with -2.  We then have y = (-3/4)x - 2.

Graphing this line:  Knowing that b = -2, plot the point (0, -2).  Find the x-intercept by letting y = 0 in the above equation and solving for x:

0 = (-3/4)x - 2, or (3/4)x = -2, or x = (4/3)(-2), or x = -8/3.  Plot this x-intercept (-8/3, 0).  Finally, draw a line through the points (0, -2) and (-8/3, 0).
