Answer 2

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equivalent question: Find the slope of line going through points (1,-5) and (10,13).

Line points up vertically and subtract. Then put 2nd difference on top of first difference.

(1,-5)

(10,13)

---------'subtracting

-9, -18

So the slope of the line gong through point's (1,-5) and (10,13) is -18/-9=2.

The common difference of an arithmetic sequence whose first term is -5 and whose tenth term is 13 is 2.

y-2x-1=0 for -2 ≤ x ≤ 4 . can someone help me graph a straight line for this pls ?​

Answers

Answer: See the graph below.

It is a straight line segment with endpoints (-2,-3) and (4,9).

===============================================================

Explanation:

We're told that x is between -2 and 4, including both endpoints.

Let's see what y is when we plug in x = -2

y-2x-1 = 0

y-2(-2)-1 = 0

y+4-1 = 0

y+3 = 0

y = -3

So x = -2 pairs up with y = -3. The point (x,y) = (-2,-3) is on the line. This is the left most endpoint.

Repeat for x = 4 to find what y must be

y-2x-1 = 0

y-2(4)-1 = 0

y-8-1 = 0

y-9 = 0

y = 9

Therefore the point (x,y) = (4,9) is also on the line. It's the right most endpoint

Once we have the two points, we can form the straight line. Simply connect the endpoints mentioned as shown below. We don't extend the line infinitely outwards in both directions because [tex]-2 \le x \le 4[/tex] meaning x cannot be smaller than -2, and x cannot be greater than 4 either.

Side note: The given equation is the same as y = 2x+1. It has slope 2 and y intercept 1.

Marina spent $13.50 at the grocery store. She bought pears, kiwis, and pineapples. Pears cost $0.50 each, pineapples cost $1.50 each, and kiwis are $0.30 each. How many did she buy if she bought 9 more pears than pineapples and 2 fewer kiwis than pears?

Answers

Answer:

Number of pineapples= 10

number of pears = 19

number of kiwis = 10 -2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of a pear = $ 0.50

Cost of a pineapple = $ 1.5

cost of a kiwi = $ 0.3

Let the pineapples = p

Number of pears = 9 + p

Number of kiwis = p - 2

The cost is

0.15 p + 0.5 (9 + p) + 0.3 (p - 2) = 13.50

0.15 p + 4.5 + 0.5p + 0.3 p - 0.6 = 13.50

0.95 p = 9.6

p = 10

 

Answer: There is 3 pineapples, 12 pears and 10 kiwis

A grade school is putting on its Spring show. The theater seats 120 people. Because of the demand for tickets, the school has made the following specifications:
•The number of tickets for children will be twice as many as the number for adults.
•Full-price adult tickets will be $24; children's tickets will be $12
•At least 10 of the adult tickets will be made available to seniors aged 60 and over at 25% discount
•Total ticket sales must be at least $1,800

1)How many children's tickets will be sold? 2)How many adult tickets (full-priced and senior) will be sold?
3)How many of the adult tickets can be sold with the senior discount?​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

804010 to 20, inclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The various goals can be met without filling the theater. This fact means there is a range of possibilities for each of the answers. However, we take the wording, "because of the demand for tickets ..." to mean demand is high and the theater will be sold out.

Since two children's tickets will be sold for each adult ticket sold, the number of children's tickets is 2/3 of the total.

  children's tickets = 2/3 × 120 = 80

__

2. The remaining 40 tickets will be adult tickets.

  40 adult tickets will be sold.

__

3. The total revenue must be at least $1800. If we allow 'd' tickets to be sold at a discount, then we can find the limits on d using the inequality ...

  24(40-d) +24(0.75)d +12(80) ≥ 1800 . . . . revenue from ticket sales

  -6d ≥ -120 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 1920

  d ≤ 20 . . . . . . . . . . divide by -6

  At least 10 and at most 20 adult tickets can be sold with a discount.

("At least 10" comes from the problem requirements.)

The three methods used to classify costs into their fixed and variable components includes:_____.
a. high-low method.
b. scatter diagrams.
c. most-squares regression.
d. least-squares regression.
e. variable-fixed method.

Answers

Answer:

a. high-low method.

b. scatter diagrams.

d. least-squares regression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Costing is a measurement of the cost of production of goods and services by assessing the fixed costs and variable costs associated with each step of production.

Fixed cost can be defined as predetermined expenses in a business that remain constant for a specific period of time regardless of the quantity of production or level of outputs. Some examples of fixed costs in business are loan payments, employee salary, depreciation, rent, insurance, lease, utilities etc.

On the other hand, variable costs can be defined as expenses that are not constant and as such usually change directly and are proportional to various changes in business activities. Some examples of variable costs are taxes, direct labor, sales commissions, raw materials, operational expenses etc.

In Financial accounting, the three methods used to classify costs into their fixed and variable components includes high-low method, scatter diagrams and least-squares regression.

The high-low method is a quick and easy way to estimate costs by using historical accounting information from a range of reporting periods.

A scatter diagram (scattergraph) estimate costs by considering all the data points and not just the lowest or highest point.

A least squares regression line is a standard technique in regression analysis used to make the vertical distance obtained from the data points running to the regression line to become very minimal or as small as possible.

Generally, the sum of the residuals of a least squares regression line is always equal to zero.

1 liter of acid4 liters of water

You got the first question correct, but the second one is wrong. The two values must add up to 5.

===================================================

Explanation:

We're told that 20% of this solution is acid. We have 5 liters total, so

20% of 5 = 0.20*5 = 1

Meaning there's 1 liter of pure acid in this solution.

The remaining 5-1 = 4 liters of the solution is water

Or you could note that if 20% is pure acid, then the remaining 80% is water

80% of 5 = 0.80*5 = 4

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

Another approach is to realize that 20% is the same as the fraction 1/5

So if 1/5 of the mix is pure acid, and we have 5 liters of the solution, then we must have 1 liter of pure acid

(1 liter of pure acid)/(5 liters of solution) = 1/5 = 20% acid solution

Answer:

  1/3; geometric

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, your sequence is ...

  81, 27, 9, 3, 1, ...

The differences between these numbers vary, but the ratio of each to the one before is a constant:

  27/81 = 9/27 = 3/9 = 1/3

The sequence is geometric with a common ratio of 1/3. The next number in the sequence is (1)(1/3) = 1/3.

find the rate of change of volume of a cone if dr/dt is 3 in./min. and h=4r when r = 8 inches

Answers

Answer:

[tex]v = \frac{1}{3}bh[/tex]

since base is pi r^2

[tex]v = \frac{1}{3} \pi \: r {}^{2} h[/tex]

it's given that h=4r

[tex]v = \frac{1}{3} \pi \: r^{2} (4r) = \frac{4}{3} \pi \: {r}^{3} [/tex]

now find derivative

[tex] \frac{dv}{dt} = 4\pi \: r {}^{2} [/tex] × dr/dt

r=8 , dv/dt = 3

dv/dt = 4pi (8)^2 ×3 = 768pi

Answer:

768 pi in^3/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone=1/3 pi×r^2×h

Differentiating this gives:

dV/dt=1/3×pi×2r dr/dt×h+1/3×pi×r^2×dh/dt

We are given the following:

dr/dt = 3 in./min.

h=4r when r = 8 inches

If h=4r then dh/dt=4dr/dt=4(3 in/min)=12 in/min

If h=4r and r=8 in, then h=4(8)=32 in for that particular time.

Plug in:

dV/dt=1/3×pi×2r dr/dt×h+1/3×pi×r^2×dh/dt

dV/dt=1/3×pi×2(8)(3)×32+1/3×pi×(8)^2×12

dV/dt=pi×2(8)(32)+pi×(8)^2(4)

dV/dt=pi(256×2)+pi(64×4)

dV/dt=pi(512)+pi(256)

dV/dt=pi(768)

dV/dt=768pi

dV/dt=768/pi in^3/min

[tex]m+\frac{3}{4} =[/tex] time in hours for Ricky to travel d miles

(Note that [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] hrs = 45 min)

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

Maria's equation:

d = 51m

Ricky's equation:

d = 24 · [tex](m+\frac{3}{4} )[/tex]

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

Substitution:

51m = 24 · [tex](m+\frac{3}{4} )[/tex]

51m = 24m + 45

6m = 10

m = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

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

d = 51m

d = 51 · [tex](\frac{5}{3})[/tex]

d = 85

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

The distance traveled is 85 mi

If it takes Ricky, traveling at 24 mph, 45 minutes longer to go a certain distance than it takes Maria traveling at 51 mph, the distance traveled is 85 miles

Speed and distances

Speed is the ratio of distance traveled to time taken. Mathematically:

Distance = Speed/Time

According to the given question:

Let d be the distance in miles traveledLet M be the time in hours for Maria to travel d milesLet the required time in hours for Ricky to travel be d miles

Set up the Maria equation:

d = 51m

Set up Ricky's equation:

d = 24 · (m+3/4)

Substitute

51m = 24 · (m+3/4)

51m = 24m + 45

6m = 10

m = 5/3

Determine the required distance

d = 51m

d = 51 · 5/3

d = 85

Hence the distance traveled is 85 mile

During three consecutive years, an employers salary is increased by 15%. If after three years his salary is 45,400, what was his salary before the raises?

Answers

Answer:

$29,851.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The salary started as x.

Each year it was increased 15%.

A full amount is 100% of the amount. When you add 15% to the amount, you now have 115% of the amount.

115% as a decimal is 1.15; that means that to increase an amount by 15%, multiply the amount by 1.15

For example, let's say you want to know what is a 15% increase on 100. Start with 100. 15% of 100 is 15, so if you add 15% to 100 you expect to get 115.

Now multiply 1.15 by 100. You also get 115 showing you that multiplying a number by 1.15 is the same as adding 15%.

Now let's get back to our problem.

The salary started as x.

Each year, the increase in salary was 15% of the previous salary.

After 1 year the salary is 1.15x.

After 2 years, the salary is 1.15(1.15x).

After 3 years, the salary is 1.15(1.15(1.15x)) = (1.15^3)x

We are told that the salary became $45,400 after the three 15% increases, so

(1.15)^3 * x = 45,400

Multiply out 1.15^3 as 1/15 * 1.15 * 1.15 = 1.520875

1.520875x = 45,400

Divide both sides by 1.520875.

x = 45,400/1.520875

x = 29,851.24
