Maria is going to purchase celery and onions for a new black bean soup recipe. The recipe calls for 1.5 times as many pounds of onions as celery. If she has $8.10, what is the most pounds of celery she can buy if celery costs $1.80 per pound and onions cost $1.50 per pound?

Answers

Answer 1

The maximum pounds of celery she can buy is  3.25 pounds.

What are the linear equations that represent the question?

1.5c = o equation 1

1.50o + 1.80c = 8.10 equation 2

Where:

o = pounds of onions

c = pounds of celery

How many pounds of celery can she buy?
Substitute for o in equation 2 using equation 1

1.50(1.50) + 1.80c = 8.10

2.25 + 1.80c = 8.10

1.80 = 8.10 - 2.25

1.80c = 5.85

c = 5.85 / 1.80

c = 3.25 pounds

What is the value of h(a) when a = 2 in the
piecewise function
3a + 2
4a +5
3
h(a) =
when a > 3
when a = 3
when a <3

Answers

Answer:   3

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

Explanation:

This is the given piecewise function

[tex]h(a) = \begin{cases}3a+2 \text{ when } a > 3\\4a+5 \text{ when } a = 3\\3 \text{ when } a < 3\\\end{cases}[/tex]

We can rewrite things like this

[tex]\text{when } a > 3, \ \ h(a) = 3a+2\\\text{when } a = 3, \ \ h(a) = 4a+5\\\text{when }a < 3, \ \ h(a) = 3\\[/tex]

I personally prefer this format better because it mentions the inputs first, and that leads to which function definition we go for.

The input a = 2 fits the description of [tex]a < 3[/tex] since [tex]2 < 3[/tex] is a true statement. Therefore we go for the third line and can see that [tex]h(a) = 3[/tex] becomes [tex]h(2) = 3[/tex]

-----------

As another example, if we had the input a = 7, then we'd go for the first line (since 7 > 3) and get

h(a) = 3a+2

h(7) = 3(7)+2

h(7) = 23

8. Jess walked for 45 minutes at 3 km/h and then ran for half an hour at x km/h. At the end
of that time she was 6 km from the starting point. Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 7.5 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

• First calculate the distance covered by walking at 3 km/h for 45 minutes ( 0.75 h):

distance = speed × time

              = 3 × 0.75

              = 2.25 km

• Therefore, she covered 2.25 km of the total journey by walking. Since she was 6 km from the starting point at the end of the entire journey, we can calculate the distance remaining, which she had to run:

distance she had to run = 6 - 2.25

                                        = 3.75 km

• Now we can calculate the speed of the 30 minute (0.5 h) run:

speed = distance ÷ time

           = 3.75 ÷ 0.5

           = 7.5 km/h    

This means that she ran at 7.5 km/h for half an hour.

A table has an area of x² + 12x + 35. Find the possible dimensions of the table.

Answers

Answer:

x + 7 and x + 5 are possible dimensions

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 12x + 35 ← factor the quadratic

consider the product of the factors of the constant term (+ 35) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 12)

the factors are + 7 and + 5 , since

7 × 5 = + 35 and 7 + 5 = + 12 , then

x² + 12x + 35 = (x + 7)(x + 5) ← in factored form

now the area A = length × breadth , that is

A = x² + 12x + 35 = (x + 7)(x + 5) , then

length = x + 7 or x + 5

breadth = x + 5 or x + 7

Given that sin(90-x)°=0.8. where x is an acute angle.Find without using calculator or mathematical table the value of tan x

Answers

By using trigonometric properties, we will see that:

tan(x) = 3/4.

How to find the value of tan(x)?

Remember that the sine of the difference is:

sin(a - b) = sin(a)*cos(b) - sin(b)*cos(a).

Here we have:

sin(90° -x ) = 0.8

Expanding the sine:

sin(90° - x) = sin(90°)*cos(x) - sin(x)*cos(90°)

We know that:

sin(90°) = 1 and cos(90°) = 0, then:

sin(90° - x) = sin(90°)*cos(x) - sin(x)*cos(90°) = cos(x).

Then we have:

cos(x) = 0.8

And we want to find the tangent of x, which is:

[tex]tan(x) = \frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}[/tex]

We already know that cos(x) = 0.8

Now, remember that:

[tex]sin(x)^2 + cos^2(x) = 1\\\\sin(x) = \sqrt{1 - cos^2(x)} \\[/tex]

Because x is an acute angle, sin(x) > 0, that is why we choose the positive root.

Replacing cos(x) we get:

[tex]sin(x) = \sqrt{1 - 0.8^2} = \sqrt{1 - 0.64} = \sqrt{0.36} = 0.6[/tex]

Then the tangent of x is:

[tex]tan(x) = \frac{0.6}{0.8} = \frac{6}{10}*\frac{10}{8} = 6/8 = 3/4[/tex]

The probability that a randomly selected person from the sample will be female or left-handed will be 0.05.

What is the probability?

Probability is synonymous with possibility. It is concerned with the occurrence of a random event.

Probability can only have a value between 0 and 1. Its simple notion is that something is very likely to occur. It is the proportion of favorable events to the total number of events.

Given data;

Total number of sample,n(S) = 100 person

No of female or left-handed is,n(E) =5

P(E) is the probability that a randomly selected person from the sample will be female or left-handed

The probability that a randomly selected person from the sample will be female or left-handed is found as;

P(E) = n(E)/n(S)

P(E) = 5 / 100

The transformed function is y = 1/3(log(x/3 + 4)) + 1

How to transform the logarithmic function?

The parent logarithmic function is

y = log(x)

When shifted left by 4 units, we have:

y = log(x + 4)

When shifted up by 3 units, we have:

y = log(x + 4) + 3

When compressed vertically by 1/3, we have:

y = 1/3(log(x + 4) + 3)

This gives

y = 1/3(log(x + 4)) + 1

When stretched horizontally by 3, we have:

y = 1/3(log(x/3 + 4)) + 1

Hence, the transformed function is y = 1/3(log(x/3 + 4)) + 1

The transformation of function f(x)

We have:

f(x) = log[-(x – 5)] + 4

Set the radicand greater than 0

-(x - 5) > 0

Divide by -1

x - 5 < 0

Add 5 to both sides

x < 5 -- this represents the domain

A logarithmic function can output any real number.
