renresent you

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x-5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you did it the other way that would be like saying 5 minus your grade. That would be in the negatives unless you got a 5 or below on your grade. :)

Answer 2

Answer:

x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

The other way makes no sense saying 5 minus your grade I hope this helps and it's 5 less than your grade so your grade minus 5 ewuals your answer

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change 2 1/3 into an improper fraction.

2 1/3 --> 7/3

Substitute that value back into the equation

-5/3 + 7/3

At this point, you can rewrite the equation into:

7/3 - 5/3

Since they have the same denominator, just subtract the numerator's values.

Evaluate ∫ y2dx + x dy along the following paths. (a) C = C1 is the line segment from (-13, -7) to (0, 6) (b) C = C2 is the arc of the parabola x = 36 - y2 from (-13, -7) to (0, 6).

Answers

a. Parameterize C₁ by

[tex](x(t),y(t)) = (1-t)(-13,-7) + t(0,6) = (-13+13t,-7+13t)[/tex]

with 0 ≤ t ≤ 1. Then both dx = 13 dt and dy = 13 dt, so that the line integral along C₁ is

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C y^2\,dx + x\,dy = \int_0^1 (-7+13t)^2(13\, dt) + (-13+13t)(13\,dt)[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C y^2\,dx + x\,dy = 13 \int_0^1 (169t^2 - 169t + 36) \, dt[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C y^2\,dx + x\,dy = 13 \left(\frac{169}3-\frac{169}2+36\right) = \boxed{\frac{611}6}[/tex]

b. Parameterize C₂ by

[tex](x(t),y(t)) = (36-t^2,t)[/tex]

with -7 ≤ t ≤ 6. Then dx = -2t dt and dy = dt, so the line integral is

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C y^2\,dx + x\,dy = \int_{-7}^6 t^2(-2t\,dt) + (36-t^2)\,dt[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C y^2\,dx + x\,dy = \int_{-7}^6 (36-t^2-2t^3) \, dt[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \int_C y^2\,dx + x\,dy = \left(36\cdot6-\frac{6^3}3-\frac{6^4}2\right) - \left(36\cdot(-7)-\frac{(-7)^3}3-\frac{(-7)^4}2\right) = \boxed{\frac{5005}6}[/tex]

A coach divided his team into two groups of equal size.
.
of the first group drinks at least 2 glasses of water a day
• 75% of the second group drinks at least 2 glasses of water a day.
What fraction of the team drinks at least 2 glasses of water a day?

Answers

Applying the percentages, and considering that 70% of the first group drinks at least 2 glasses of water a day, it is found that 0.725 = 72.5% of the team drinks at least 2 glasses of water a day.

The team is divided into two equal groups, hence, each represents 50%.

The percentages associated with drinking at least 2 glasses of water a day is:

70% of 50%(first group)75% of 50%(second group)

Hence, applying the weighed percentage, the total percentage is:

[tex]T = 0.7(0.5) + 0.75(0.5) = 0.725[/tex]

0.725 = 72.5% of the team drinks at least 2 glasses of water a day.

75% of what equals 30

Answers

Answer:

30 is 75% of 40

Step-by-step explanation:

We have, 75% × x = 30 or, 75/100 x = 30. Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 75,  x = 40.

And if you are using a calculator, simply enter 30×100÷75, which will give you the answer.

Hey there!

75% of ? = 30

75% of x = 30

75/100 * x = 30

75 ÷ 25 / 100 ÷ 25 * x = 30

3/4 * x = 30

MULTIPLY 4/3 to BOTH SIDES

4/3 * 3/4x = 4/3 * 30

CANCEL out: 4/3 * 3/4 because that gives you 1

KEEP: 4/3 * 30 because it helps solve for your answer

x = 4/3 * 30

SIMPLIFY IT

x = 40

Therefore, 75% of [40] = 30

Answer: 40

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2(3x - 7) + 18 = 10 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

2(3x - 7) = - 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

3x - 7 = - 4 ( add 7 to both sides )

3x = 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )

Answers

Answer:

$30 on CDs

$20 on Makeup

hope it helps

Step-by-step explanation:

The money spent on each product is $20 and $30 respectively.

How to solve a linear equation?

A linear equation can be solved by equating the LHS and RHS of the equation following some basic rules such as by adding or subtracting the same numbers on both sides and similarly, doing division and multiplication with the same numbers.

Given that,

The money spent by Lauren on make up and CDs is $50.

Suppose the money spent on CDs be x.

Then, the money spent on make up is  x + 10.

As per the question the following equation can be formed,

x + x + 10 = 50

=> 2x + 10 = 50

=> 2x = 40

=> x = 20

Thus, money spent on make up is 20 + 10 = 30 dollars.

Hence, the money spent on CDs and make up is $20 and $30 respectively.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  55° : 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the two other angles is ...

  180° -55° = 125°

The sum of the ratio units is 11+14 = 25. Each ratio unit stands for 125°/25 = 5°. Then the other two angles are ...

  11×5° = 55°

  14×5° = 70°

Answer:

55° and 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has an angle that measures 55°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 11:14. What are the measures of those two angles?

the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is 180 °, we take 55 ° of the known angle and we have the sum of the other two, 125 °, the ratio is 11:14, one is 11 units and one is 14 units, we add them and we divide 125 ° by (11 + 14) = 25 and we have a unit, 125: 25 = 5. now we multiply the unit first by 11 and then by 14 and find the measure of the angles.

11 * 5 = 55°

14 * 5 = 70°

--------------------

check

55 + 55 + 70 = 180°

the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180,

Find the critical points, relative extrema, and saddle points of the function. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) f(x, y) = 25 − (x − 5)2 − y2

Answers

Take the first partial derivatives of f(x, y):

∂f/∂x = -2 (x - 5) = 10 - 2x

∂f/∂y = -2y

The critical points occur where both derivatives are zero:

10 - 2x = 0   ===>   x = 5

-2y = 0   ===>   y = 0

So there is only critical point at (5, 0), which takes on a value of f(5, 0) = 25.

Compute the Hessian matrix for f :

[tex]H(x, y) = \begin{bmatrix}\frac{\partial^2f}{\partial x^2} & \frac{\partial^2f}{\partial x\partial y} \\ \frac{\partial^2f}{\partial y\partial x} & \frac{\partial^2f}{\partial y^2}\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}-2&0\\0&-2\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Since det(H(x, y)) = 4 > 0 for all x, y, the critical point (5, 0) is a relative minimum.

f has no saddle points.
