Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level.

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72
Which statement is true about Pieter’s solution?

1. It cannot be a fraction or decimal because the depth of the well is a whole number.

2. It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.

3. It must be a negative number because the depth is below sea level.

4.It cannot be greater than –72 because that is the depth of the well.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Is this the entire question? Some of it makes no sense without a diagram or something.

To get rid of A you actually have to solve the equation.

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72        Remove the brackets

7h - 15h + 40 = - 72          Combine the like terms

- 8h + 40 = - 72                Subtract 40 from both sides

- 8h = -112                        Divide by -8

    h = 14

Well the depth is a whole number so A is true.

We don't know anything about time. But the answer is positive.

C is false because B is true.

We don't know exactly what the depth of the well is.

I would pick A, but you need the entire question.

BA13 = 5×2 + 7×-4 + 3×-3 = -27

BA21 = -2×3 + -1×3 + 9×2 = 9

BA22 = -2×1 + -1×6 + 9×-1 = -17

If [tex]a + ar + ar^{2} + ... = 15[/tex] and [tex]a + ar^{2} + ar^{4} + ar^{6} + ... = 9[/tex], then what is the sum of the geometric series [tex]a + ar^{3} + ar^{6} + ar^{9} + ...[/tex]?

Answers

Notice that

a + ar³ + ar⁶ + ar⁹ + ... = a + r³ (a + ar³ + ar⁶ + ...)

but the grouped sum on the right side is the same as the sum on the left side. This means that, if the sum we want to compute

a + ar³ + ar⁶ + ar⁹ + ...

converges to S, then

S = a + r³ S

Solve for S :

S - r³ S = a

(1 - r³) S = a

S = a/(1 - r³)

Similarly, knowing the value of the first sum, we have

a + ar + ar² + ar³ + ... = a + r (a + ar + ar² + ...)

but we know

a + ar + ar² + ... = 15

so

15 = a + 15r

and knowing the value of the second sum, we have

a + ar² + ar⁴ + ... = a + r² (a + ar² + ar⁴ + ...)

so

9 = a + 9r²

Solve these two equations for a and r :

15 = a + 15r   ⇒   a = 15 - 15r

9 = a + 9r²   ⇒   9 = 15 - 15r + 9r²   ⇒   3r² - 5r + 2 = (3r - 2) (r - 1) = 0

⇒   r = 2/3 or r = 1

We cannot have r = 1, since that would mean

a + a + a + ... = 15

since the left side is adding infinitely many copies of some constant; such a sum can never converge to a finite number. So it must be that r = 2/3, and it follows that a = 15 - 15 (2/3) = 5.

Then the sum we want has a value of

S = 5/(1 - (2/3))³ = 135/19

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  a + ar¹ + ar² + ar³ + ... = 15       #1

r(a + ar¹ + ar² + ar³ + ...) = 15r

       ar¹ + ar² + ar³ + ... = 15r      #2

subtract #2 from #1

a = 15 - 15r

     a + ar² + ar⁴ + ar⁶ + ... = 9         #3

r²(a + ar² + ar⁴ + ar⁶ + ... )= 9r²

         ar² + ar⁴ + ar⁶ + ... = 9r²       #4

subtract #4 from #3

a = 9 - 9r²

15 - 15r = 9 - 9r²

9r² - 15r + 6 = 0

3r² - 5r + 2 = 0

r = (5 ±√(5² - 4(3)(2))) / (2(3)

r = (5 ± 1) / 6

r = 1

or

r = 4/6 = 2/3

if r = 1 then a = 15 - 15(1) = 0 and a series of zeros added together can never equal 15 so r = 2/3 must be true.

a = 15 - 15(2/3) = 5

   a + ar³ + ar⁶ + ar⁹ + ... = C           #5

r³(a + ar³ + ar⁶ + ar⁹ + ...) = Cr³

         ar³ + ar⁶ + ar⁹ + ... = Cr³          #6

subtract #6 from #5

a = C - Cr³

a = C(1 - r³)

C = a/(1 - r³)

C = 5/(1 - (2/3)³)

C = 5/(1 - 8/27)

C = 5/(19/27)

C = 5(27/19)

C = 135/19 = 7.1052631578947368....

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

when a line cuts through 2 parallel lines, it does the exact same thing to both lines. it has to. because they are parallel, they act as if they are identical. only their placement is different, but this has no impact on the angles between the lines.

now, imagine a circle with the center at one of the crossing points. this circle is cut in half by the central line.

you know how many degrees a full circle has ?

360 degrees.

now, how many degrees are represented by the half- circle above or below the center line ?

of course, half of the degrees of the full circle. that means 180 degrees.

so, all the angles around a single point on one side of a line must have how many degrees together ?

right, these half-circle 180 degrees again.

because of everything we said up there, the angle 4x+6 is the same as the angle right of the 7x-2 angle.

so, 7x-2 and 4x+6 must be 180 degrees together.

that is called "supplementary angles".

7x - 2 + 4x + 6 = 180

11x = 176

x = 16

f(-3)= 1
f(1)= -1
if f(x)= -2 then x=3
if f(x)= 2 then x= -5

Answer:

f(-3)= 1

f(1)= -1

If f(x)= -2 then x = 3

If f(x) = 2 then x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) can be replaced with any number. It just means y. For example, let's replace the (x,y) with the (-5,2). For this point, this is f(-5) = 2. When they ask for f(x), they are just asking what y is with a given coordinate x. So when they ask what f(-3) is, they are asking what y is with -3 being the x coordinate.

So, f(-3) = 1

f(1) = -1

For these questions:

If f(x) = -2 then x = ?

If f(x) = 2 then x = ?

They are asking what x is when y is -2 or 2. So here:

If f(x) = -2 then x = 3

If f(x) = 2 then x = -5

Using the table find then relative frequency of each color, to 3 decimal places

Answers

Answer:  The table is shown below.

Explanation:

For each row, divide the color counts over the total. For example, we have 9 red in bag one out of 61 total. This leads to a relative frequency of 9/61 = 0.1475 which rounds to 0.148; so approximately 14.8% of the items in bag one are red. This represents the top left corner of the table.

As another example, we have 5 brown out of 60 total in bag ten. That leads to a relative frequency of 5/60 = 0.0833 = 0.083 (see the bottom right corner of the table).

Take note that for any given row, adding up the relative frequencies will yield the value of 1 (though there might be some slight rounding error along the way).

as the schools sign language interpreter kiran gets paid 35.50 for every parent-teacher conference that he attends. He also gets paid $42 per schhol-related assembly that he attends as an interpreter. If kiran earns $991 for 27 paid events how many parent teacher conferences and how many school related assemblies did he attend write a system of equations describe each variable and solve

Answers

Answer:

x= 22 (number of parent teacher conferences) y=5 (number of school related assemblies)

Step-by-step explanation:

This word problem creates the following system of equations for x = number of parent-teacher conferences and y = number of school related assemblies.

x+y = 27 means that the number of parent teacher conferences plus the number of school related assemblies equals a total of 27 paid events.

35.50x + 42y = 991 means that $35.50 multiplied by a certain number of parent teacher conferences, plus $42 multiplied by a certain number of school related assemblies equals his total earnings of $991.

This sets up the following system

x+y=27

35.50x+42y=991

To solve this, we first need to take the first equation and solve for y.

y=27-x

plug in to the second equation and solve for x.

35.50x+42(27-x)=991

35.50x-42x+1134=991

Collect like terms

-6.5x=-143

divide both sides by -6.5 to solve for x.

x=22

Back substitute into other original equation to solve for y.

22+y=27

y=5

The interpreter attended 22 parent-teacher conference and 5 school related assembly

To solve this problem, we would write out two set of linear equations.

The data given on this problem are

parent-teacher conference = $35.50school related assembly = $42The total number of engagements = 27

Let x represent the number of parent-teacher conference

let y represent the number of school related conference

Equations[tex]x+y = 27...equation (i)\\35.50(x)+42y=991...equation(ii)[/tex]

From equation (i)

[tex]x+y = 27\\x = 27-y...equation(iii)\\[/tex]

Put equation(iii) into equation (ii)

[tex]35.50x+42y=991\\35.50(27-y)+42y=991\\958.50-35.50y+42y=991\\6.50y=991-958.50\\y=5[/tex]

Put y = 5 into equation 1

[tex]x+y=27\\y = 5\\x+5=27\\x=27-5\\x=22[/tex]

From the above calculations, he attended 22 parent-teacher conference and 5 school related assembly.

A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play. The students filled 1917 seats, which was 45% of the total number of seats in the theater. How many total seats were in the theater?

Answers

Answer:

4260 seats in the theater

Step-by-step explanation:

We write the equation 0.45x=1917, with x representing the total number of seats.

Multiply both sides by 100, we get 45x=191700.

Divide both sides by 45, we get x=191700/45

x=4260.

There are 4260 seats in the theater.

The total number of seats is the theater is 4,260.

Percentage:

The percentage is a ratio or fraction of 100 and can be calculated with the formula

Percentage = [tex]\frac{parts}{whole}.100[/tex]

How to calculate percentage?

Here we have given that the 1917 seats is 45% of the total seats

Let the total number of seats available in theater is = x

Then 45 % of x = 1917

0.45 x = 1917

Multiply both the sides by 100 we have

45 x = 1917x100

x = [tex]\frac{191700}{45}=4260[/tex]

Therefore, we want to separate the [tex]y[/tex] from the equation.

[tex]\ln(y^3) =e^{2x} \implies 3 \ln(y) = e^{2x} \implies \ln(y) = \dfrac{e^{2x} }{3}[/tex]

Now we can calculate the derivative. By the chain rule,

[tex]y' = \dfrac{d}{dx}\left(e^{e^{2x}/3}\right) = e^{e^{2x}/3}\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\dfrac{e^{2x}}{3}\right)[/tex]

Now

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(\dfrac{e^{2x}}{3}\right) =\dfrac{1}{3}\dfrac{d}{dx}\left(e^{2x}\right) = \dfrac{2}{3}e^{2x}[/tex]
