Answers

Answer 1

The slope of the given points is equal to -5/2 or -2.5.

What is a slope?

A slope is also referred to as gradient and it's typically used to describe both the direction, ratio, and steepness of the function of a straight line based on its coordinates or points.

How to calculate the slope of a line?

Mathematically, the slope of any straight line can be calculated by using this formula;

[tex]Slope = \frac{Change\;in\;y\;axis}{Change\;in\;x\;axis}\\\\Slope = \frac{y_2\;-\;y_1}{x_2\;-\;x_1}[/tex]

For the given points P(-6, 16) and Q(2, -4), the slope is given by;

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = (-4 - 16)/(2 - (-6))

Slope = (-4 - 16)/(2 + 6)

Slope = -20/8

Slope = -5/2 or -2.5.

For the given points R(-6, 14) and S(-2, 4), the slope is given by;

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = (4 - 14)/(-2 - (-6))

Slope = (4 - 14)/(-2 + 6)

Slope = -10/4

Slope = -5/2 or -2.5.

In conclusion, the slope of the line that passes through the given points is equal to -5/2 or -2.5.

What is an inverse function?

An inverse in mathematics is a function that "undoes" another function. In other words, if f(x) produces y, then y entered into the inverse of f produces x. An invertible function is one that has an inverse, and the inverse is represented by the symbol f1.

In the broadest sense, inverse functions are functions that "reverse" one another. The inverse, f 1 f-1 f1f, start superscript, minus, 1, end superscript, must take b to a, for instance, if f takes a to b.

The numbers that are greater than 59 1/3 are; C: 59 2/3 and D: 179/3

How to interpret Inequalities?

We want to find the numbers that are greater than 59 ¹/₃.

Now, the given fraction is written in mixed fraction. Looking at the fraction side, we can see that 1/3 can be written as 0.333. Thus;

59 ¹/₃ = 59.333

When we talk about the inequality greater than, we are simply referring to sayin that a figure is more than another figure which could be given or not given.

Looking at the given options, let us rewrite each of the mixed or improper fractions in decimal form to get;

59 ²/₁₀ converted to decimal form gives 59.2

59 ⁴/₁₂ = 59 ¹/₃  converted to decimal form gives 59.333

59 ²/₃  converted to decimal form gives 59.667

179/3 = 59 ²/₃  converted to decimal form gives 59.667

Comparing the options to the given number in the question, we can conclude that 59 2/3 and 179/3 are greater than 59 1/3

Farmer Bob is going out to feed the cattle. He feeds seven pounds of cowchow to each cow. He uses at least 84 pounds of cowchow every time he feeds. Write an inequality and solve to find how many cows farmer Bob has

Answers

Each cow receives seven pounds of cow chow from Bob. Every time he feeds, farmer Bob uses at least 84 pounds of cow chow, which means that each time he feeds, 12 cows in total.

What is the concept of Unitary Method?

The unitary approach is a strategy for problem-solving that involves first determining the value of a single unit, then multiplying that value to determine the required value.

Cow chow fed to each cow by the farmer =7 pounds

Total cow chow used by the farmer to feed the cows every time = 84 pounds

Total cow chow used = no. of cows *cow chow fed to each cow

No. of cows = Total cow chow / cow chow fed to each cow

                    = 84/7

                    =12

No. of cows = 12

Therefore, 84 pounds of cow chow is used to feed 12 cows each time.

Answers

The distance from the base of the ladder to the house is 15 ft.

How to find the side of a right triangle?

The length of the ladder is 39 ft.

The ladder is placed to reach a point on the house 36 feet from the ground.

This situation forms a right angle triangle.

The distance from the base of the ladder to the house is as follows:

The distance from the base of the ladder to the house is the other leg of the right angle triangle.

The ladder length is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

Hence, using Pythagoras theorem,

39² - 36² = b²

b² = 1521 - 1296

b² = 225

b = √225

b = 15 ft

How many of kg of mixed nuts that contain 40% peanuts must bill add to 18 kg of mixed nuts that contain 62% peanuts to make a mixture with 52% peanuts

Answers

To find, let  the no. of kg of mixed nuts that contains 40% peanuts be called  [tex]x[/tex].

We know,

Total peanuts already in the mixture = 18 x [tex]\frac{62}{100}[/tex] = 11.16 kg

The  new mixture contains 52% peanuts, then, [tex]\frac{x_{peanuts} }{x_{total} }[/tex] = 0.52.

Furthermore, 40% must be added.

[tex]x_{peanuts}[/tex] = [tex]0.4x[/tex] + [tex]11.16[/tex]

This gives us the following equation,

[tex]\frac{0.4x + 11.16}{18 + x } = 0.52[/tex]

Total mass =[tex]x + 18[/tex]

⇒ [tex]0.52 x +[/tex] 0.52 x 18 = [tex]0.4x + 11.16[/tex]

⇒ 0.12[tex]x[/tex] = (0.62 - 0.52 ) x 18

Given that,

Clare plans to fold up the sides of a poster board that is 30 inches by 25 inches and trim the corners to create an open-top box. The open-top box's volume, "V(x)," in cubic inches, depends on the square cuts' side length, "x," in inches.

Length =30 inch

Width=25 inch

The box's size changes when x is taken out of the container.

Length=30-2x

Width=25-2x

Height=x

Because x is eliminated from both ends, we subtract 2x.

The volume is then determined as follows:

V(x)=length×width×height

V(x)=(30-2x)×(25-2x)×x

V(x)=(30-2x)×(25x-2x²)

V(x)=750x-110x²+4x³

Answers

The distance between in two cities is 360 miles.

Given,

It took a plane 2 hours to fly from Dallas to New York

The headwind and 1.5 hours to return with the tailwind.

and, the speed of the wind was 30 mph.

To find the how far apart are the two cities?

Now, According to the question:

Let speed of be x

Speed of wind be c

Also note D = RT, where

D is distance and R is rate and T is time

For First Leg:

we can write:

(x - c) × 2 = D

2x - 2c = D

For Second Leg:

we can write:

(x+ c) × 1.5 = D

1.5x + 1.5c = D

We can equate and write:

2x - 2c = 1.5x + 1.5c

0.5x = 3.5c

We know Speed of Wind, c, is 30, so we have:

0.5x = 3.5(30)

0.5x = 105

x = 105/0.5 = 210 [speed of airplane]

We know distance is

D = 2x - 2c

D = 2(210) - 2(30)

D = 420 - 60

D = 360 miles

Hence, The distance between in two cities is 360 miles.
