Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

You want me to let you in on a secret? There's a simple equation that you can use to solve any quadratic problem in a minute or two.

It's the quadratic formula

x =  [tex]x = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

The +- means that you will do this two times, the first time you will do -b + sqrt(b^2-4ac), and the second time you will do minus that.

a is the coefficient of the first term in the expression, b is the second and c is the third.

so we get[tex]x = \frac{-(-10) +- \sqrt{(-10)^2 - 4(1)(24)} }{2(1)}[/tex] , which is the same as

[tex]x = \frac{10 + \sqrt{100 - 24(4)} }{2}[/tex]

and

x = [tex]x = \frac{10 - \sqrt{100 - 24(4)} }{2}[/tex]

The top part simplifies to [tex]\frac{10 + \sqrt{100 - 72} }{2} = \frac{10 + 6}{2} = 5[/tex], which is your answer.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Rate = 15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]R(x) = 56 - 0.020x^2[/tex]

Required

Find the average change from​ 1,000 car seats to​ 1,050 car seats --- Missing information

This is calculated using:

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(b) - R(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]a = 1000[/tex]

[tex]b = 1050[/tex]

Now, we have:

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(1050) - R(1000)}{1050-1000}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(1050) - R(1000)}{50}[/tex]

Calculating R(1050)

[tex]R(1050) = 56 *1050- 0.020*1050^2[/tex]

[tex]R(1050) = 58800-22050[/tex]

[tex]R(1050) = 36750[/tex]

Calculating R(1000)

[tex]R(1000) = 56 *1000- 0.020*1000^2[/tex]

[tex]R(1000) = 56000- 20000[/tex]

[tex]R(1000) = 36000[/tex]

So:

[tex]Rate = \frac{R(1050) - R(1000)}{50}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = \frac{750} {50}[/tex]

[tex]Rate = 15[/tex]

The temperature was recorded at the same time each day,
a)
Which temperature was the warmest?
b)
Which temperature was the coldest?
c)
How much colder was it on Thursday than on Saturday?
d)
On Sunday the temperature was 5°C lower than on Saturday.
What was the temperature on Sunday?

Answers

Answer:

a) The warmest temperature will be the one where the value of the temperature is the largest, in the table we can see that the largest temperature is 3°C on Saturday.

Then the largest temperature was on Saturday, and it was 3°C

b) Which temperature was the coldest?

Now we need to look at the smallest temperature (or the largest negative temperature). In the table we can see that the smallest temperature is -6°C on Friday.

Then the smallest temperature is -6°C.

c) On Thursday the temperature was -1°C

On Saturday the temperature was 3°C

The difference between the temperatures is:

-1°C - (3°C) = -4°C

This means that Thursday was -4°C colder than on Saturday.

d) On Sunday, the temperature was 5°C lower than on Saturday.

On Saturday the temperature was 3°C, then the temperature on Sunday is:

T = 3°C - 5°C = -2°C

The temperature on Sunday is -3°C.

Step-by-step explanation:

In x-y coordinates, the direction is 70° CCW from 90° (north), so is 160° from the +x axis. In 4 hours at 18 Nm/h, the ship will travel 4×18 Nm = 72 Nm.

The coordinates in the x-y plane can be found to be ...

  72(cos(160°), sin(160°)) ≈ (-67.7, 24.6)

The ship traveled 67.7 nautical miles west and 24.6 nautical miles north from the port.

A) 5%
B) 11%

Answer:

percent error is 11.1%  (which agrees with answer B)

Step-by-step explanation:

The discrepancy (difference) between the measurement and the real length was: 5 - 4.5 = 0.5 ft

Then the percent difference is calculated as:

(difference / real value) * 100 = ( 0.5 / 4.5ft  ) * 100 =  11.1%

Hey!

So what it's asking for is the slope of the line. You can figure this out by finding two solid points on the line, such as (0,-1) and (4,2).

Knowing that these are two solid points, you can use the Rise/Run method to get the answer. The rise is how many units the slope rises (+) or falls (-) when getting to the next point. The run is how many units to the left or right it goes.

By following this, the slope is 3/4

(You will not receive full credit if a trial and error method is used in place of an algebraic method.)

Answers

Answer:

100 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

To work :

speed = 50mph

Let time taken = x

From work :

speed = 40mph

30 minutes = 30/60 = 0.5

Time taken = x + 0.5

Distance from home to work :

Distance = speed * time

To work distance = from work distance

This can be algebraically expressed as :

50 * x = 40(x + 0.5)

50x = 40x + 20

50x - 40x = 20

10x = 20

x = 20/10

x = 2

Hence,

Distance = 50 * 2 = 100

The the distance from home to work = 100 miles

The distance from Michael home to work is 100 miles

Speed

Speed is the ratio of the total distance travelled to the total time taken. It is given by:

Speed = distance / time

Let d represent the distance from Michael home to work. Hence:

50 = d/tt = d / 50

He took 30 minutes (0.5 hours) longer when driving at 40 mph, hence:

40 = d/(t + 0.5)t = (d - 20)/40

d/50 = (d - 20) / 40

40d = 50d - 1000

10d = 1000

d = 100 miles

The distance from Michael home to work is 100 miles

At a basketball game, a team made 53 successful shots. They were a combination of 1- and
2-point shots. The team scored 90 points in all. Write and solve a system of equations to find the
number of each type of shot.
There were
2-point shots and 1-point shots.

Answers

Answer:

Let x be the number of 1 point shots, and y be the number of 2 point shots.

So the system is:

x+y=53

1x+2y=90

We can solve this system by substitution.

x+y=53, x=53-y

x+2y=90

53-y+2y=90

53+y=90

y=37

That means, the team made 37 two point shots.

If the team made 37 two point shots, the team scored 37 x 2, or 74 points from 2 point shots, meaning that it made 16 one  point shots.

So the correct answer is: 16 one point shots, 37 two point shots.
