A car and a motorcycle whose average rates are in the ratio of 4:5 travel a distance of 160 miles. If the motorcycle
travels 1/2 hour less than the car, find the average rate of each.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I always advise my students to make a table of information for these story problems because trying to keep track of the information otherwise is a nightmare. The table will look like this:

           d      =      r      *      t

m

c

m is motorcycle and c is car.

First thing we are told is that the ratio of m's speed to c's speed is 5:4; that means that we can divide 5/4 to find out how many times faster m is going than c.

5/4 = 1.25 so we have a couple of values to put into the table right away, along with the fact that they are both traveling the same distance of 160 miles.

             d      =     r      *      t

m        160     =   1.25r

c         160     =     r

The last thing we have to fill in is the time. If m travels a half hour less than c, c is driving a half hour more than m, right? Filling that in:

            d      =      r      *      t

m       160     =   1.25r   *     t

c        160     =      r       *  t + .5

Now we have our 2 equations. Looking at the top row of the table gives us the formula we need to solve this problem. It tells us, in other words, what we are going to be doing with these columns of numbers. Distance equals the rate times the time. For the motorcycle, the equation is:

160 = (1.25r)t  and that seems pretty useless since we still have 2 unknowns in there and you can only have 1 unknown in 1 equation. Let's see what the equation for the car is.

160 = (t + .5)r  Same problem.

Let's go back to the equation for the motorcycle and since we are looking for the rates of each, let's solve that equation for time in terms of rate (solve it for t):

[tex]t=\frac{160}{1.25r}[/tex] and sub that into the car's equation in place of t:

[tex]160=r(\frac{160}{1.25r})+.5r[/tex] and simplify. The r's to the left of the plus sign cancel out leaving us with:

[tex]160=(\frac{160}{1.25})+.5r[/tex] and divide those numbers inside the parenthesis to get:

160 = 128 + .5r and subtract 128 from both sides to get:

32 = .5r and finally divide by .5 to get

r = 64 miles/hour

The car goes 64 mph and the motorcycle goes 1.25 times that so,

m = 1.25(64) and

m = 80 mph

a. A CD is discounted by 10%, and then from the already discounted price, a further 15% discount is given. If the price now is $12.93, find the original price.

b. What is the total discount percent as compared to the original price?

Answers

Answer:

  a. $16.90

  b. 23.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. After the two discounts, the original price is multiplied by ...

  (1 -10%)(1 -15%) = 0.90×0.85 = 0.765

Then the original price is found from ...

  $12.93 = 0.765 × original price

  original price = $12.93 / 0.765 ≈ $16.90

__

b. The effective discount from the original price is ...

  1 -0.765 = 0.235 = 23.5%

A plane is flying at an altitude of 13,000 ​ft, where the temperature is -2 degrees F. The nearby​ airport, at an altitude of 2,000​ft, is reporting precipitation. If the temperature increases 2.1 degrees F for every​ 1000-ft decrease in​ altitude, will the precipitation at the airport be rain or​ snow? Assume that rain changes to snow at 32 degrees F.

Is the precipitation at the airport rain or​ snow?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  snow

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between temperature and altitude is given as ...

  T = -2 +((13000 -a)/1000)×2.1

We can put a=2000 into this equation to find the temperature at that altitude.

  T = -2 +((13000 -2000)/1000)×2.1 = -2 +11(2.1) = -2 +23.1 = 21.1

The airport temperature of 21.1 °F is below 32 °F, so we expect the precipitation to be snow.

Which complex number does not lie on the line segment plotted on the graph?

Answers

Answer:

Notice that for 3 out of the 4 numbers, there is a relationship between the x and the y coordinate of the number; for 3+i, -2i, -2-4i we have that the real part is larger by 2 from the imaginary part. Thus, the points are on the same line in the imaginary plane; they satisfy x=y+2 or Re{z}=Im{z}+2. However, 2-4i does not satisfy this equation since 2 is not equal to -4+2. Hence, this point does not belong to the line that the other 3 points define.

A piece of wire that is 200 ft long is to be cut into two pieces and each of the piece is to be bent into a square. How should the wire be cut if the area of one of the squares is 1000ft2 smaller than the other?

Answers

Answer:

Length of first cut = 140

Length of second cut = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of wire = 200

Find:

Length of each cut

Computation:

Assume;

Side of first square = x/4

Side of second square = [200 - x] / 4 = 50 - x/4

So,

[x/4]² - [50 - x/4]²

x²/16 - x²/16 - 2500 + 25x = 1000

- 2500 + 25x = 1000

25x = 3500

x = 140

Side of first square = 140/4

Side of first square = 35

Side of second square = 50 - 140/4

Side of second square = 15

Length of first cut = 4 x 35

Length of first cut = 140

Length of second cut = 200 - 140

Length of second cut = 60

Answer:

60 ft and 140 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length = 200 ft

Let the length of one piece is L and other is 200 - L.

[tex]1000 + \left (\frac{L}{4} \right )^2 = \left ( \frac{200 - L}{4} \right )^2\\\\16000 +L^2 = 40000 + L^2 - 400 L\\\\L= 60 ft[/tex]

So, the length of the other piece is 140 ft.

tanx

Answers

I think you are asked to find the value of the first derivative of f(x) at π/4. Given

[tex]f(x) = \dfrac{\sin(4x)-\cos(x)}{\tan(x)}[/tex]

use the quotient to differentiate and you get

[tex]f'(x) = \dfrac{\tan(x)(4\cos(4x)+\sin(x))-(\sin(4x)-\cos(x))\sec^2(x)}{\tan^2(x)}[/tex]

Then at x = π/4, you have

tan(π/4) = 1

cos(4•π/4) = cos(π) = -1

sin(π/4) = 1/√2

sin(4•π/4) = sin(π) = 0

cos(π/4) = 1/√2

sec(π/4) = √2

==>   f ' (π/4) = (1•(-4 + 1/√2) - (0 - 1/√2)•(√2)²) / 1² = -4 + 1/√2 + √2

Use the definition of a Taylor series to find the first four nonzero terms of the series for f(x) centered at the given value of a.

f(x)= 7x e^x, a= 0

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{p(x) = 7x + 7x^2 + \frac{7}{2}x^3 + \frac{7}{6}x^4}[/tex]

Recall a Taylor series centered at x = 0:

[tex]p(x) = f(0) + f'(0)(x) + \frac{f''(0)}{2}x^{2} + \frac{f'''(0)}{3!}x^{3} + ...+ \frac{f^n}{n!}x^n[/tex]

Begin by finding the derivatives and evaluate at x = 0:

f(0) = 7(0)e⁰ = 0

f'(x) = 7eˣ + 7xeˣ   f'(0) = 7e⁰ + 7(0)e⁰ = 7

f''(x) = 7eˣ + 7eˣ + 7xeˣ  f''(0) = 7(1) + 7(1) + 0 = 14

f'''(x) = 7eˣ + 7eˣ + 7eˣ + 7xeˣ    f'''(0) = 21

f⁴(x) = 7eˣ + 7eˣ + 7eˣ + 7eˣ + 7xeˣ   f⁴(0) = 28

Now that we calculated 4 non-zero terms, we can write the Taylor series:

[tex]p(x) = 0 + 7x + \frac{14}{2}x^2 + \frac{21}{3!}x^3 + \frac{28}{4!}x^4[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]p(x) = 7x + 7x^2 + \frac{7}{2}x^3 + \frac{7}{6}x^4[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Joe must sell $ 24,330 to make $ 2,082.9 in commission.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Joe works as a salesman at the baby retail store, and he receives a 5% commission on the first $10,000, 9% on the next $7,000, and 13% on any additional sales, to calculate how much Joe must sell to make $2082.9 in commission the following calculation must be performed:

10,000 x 0.05 = 500

7,000 x 0.09 = 630

2,082.90 - 500 - 630 = X

952.90 = X

0.13X = 952.90

X = 952.90 / 0.13

X = 7.330

10,000 + 7,000 + 7,330 = X

24,330 = X

Therefore, Joe must sell $ 24,330 to make $ 2,082.9 in commission.

a. Circular reasoning
b. False dilemma
c. Appeal to consequence
d. Ad hominem
e. Correlation implies causation

Answers

Answer:

d. Ad hominem

Step-by-step explanation:

A fallacy can be defined as a mistaken or false belief that are based on illogical arguments or reasoning.

However, a lot of people might actually think it to be true but it isn't. There are various types of fallacy, these include;

I. Black or white.

II. Non sequitur.

III. Appeal to moderation.

IV. Bandwagon.

V. Appeal to authority.

VI. Straw man.

VII. Oversimplification or hasty generalization.

VIII. Appeal to ignorance.

IX. Appeal to pity.

X. Ad hominem.

Ad hominem can be defined as a type of fallacy in which the motive, character, or some other aspect of a person is attacked rather than his or her position.

This ultimately implies that, Ad hominem is typically based on prejudices, emotions, or feelings rather than appealing to reason, intellect or substance.

In this scenario, John Bardeen's research work at the Advanced Institute for Physics has progressed so slowly that even his colleagues call him a plodder. As a result, the speaker concluded that it's prudent at present not to take seriously his current theory on how strings constitute the smallest of subatomic particles. Thus, the logical fallacy described above is an ad hominem because John's slowness in his research work is bone of contention for the speaker rather than analyzing and concentrating on his theory about strings.
