What is the value of a if the point ( a, -1) is on the line 4x -3y = 15?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(a, -1) is (x, y)

Plug in the value of y into the given equation to solve for a (x):

4x - 3(-1) = 15

4x + 3 = 15

4x = 12

x = 3

(x, y) is (a, -1) so (a, -1) = (3, -1)

Answer 2

Answer: a=3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a point and an equation. To see what "a" is, we can plug in the coordinate into the equation and solve for x.

4a-3(-1)=15       [multiply]

4a+3=15           [subtract both sides by 3]

4a=12               [divide both sides by 4]

a=3

Now, we know that a=3.

If a silver alloy that costs $6.75 an ounce is
going to be mixed with 55 ounces of a silver
alloy that costs $10 an ounce to make a
mixture that costs $8 an ounce, how many
ounces of the $6.75 an ounce alloy must be
used?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  88 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounces of the less expensive alloy in the mix. Then the cost of the mix will be ...

  6.75x +10(55) = 8(55+x)

  110 = 1.25x . . . . . . subtract 440+6.75x

  88 = x . . . . . . . . divide by 1.25

88 ounces of $6.75/oz silver must be used.

A die is rolled 5 times and a 5 or 6 is considered a success. Find the peobability of no success

Answers

Answer:

0.1317 = 13.17% probability of no successes.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each toss, there are only two possible outcomes. Either there is a success, or there is not. The probability of a success on a toss is independent of any other toss, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

A die is rolled 5 times.

This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]

5 or 6 is considered a success.

2 out of 6 sides are successes, so:

[tex]p = \frac{2}{6} = 0.3333[/tex]

Find the probability of no success:

This is P(X = 0). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{5} = 0.1317[/tex]

0.1317 = 13.17% probability of no successes.

What is the slope of the line that passes through (17, −13) and (17, 8)?

(also can you try to explain ive been having trouble with these types of question)

Answers

Answer:

Slope is undefined. Line parallel to y-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

By Analytic Geometry, we can determine the slope of a line by knowing two distinct lines and using the definition of secant line:

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex](x_{1}, y_{1})[/tex] - Coordinates of the initial point.

[tex](x_{2}, y_{2})[/tex] - Coordinates of the final point.

[tex]m[/tex] - Slope.

If we know that [tex](x_{1}, y_{1}) = (17, -13)[/tex] and [tex](x_{2}, y_{2}) = (17, 8)[/tex], then the slope of the line is:

[tex]m = \frac{8-(-13)}{17-17}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{21}{0}[/tex]

The slope is undefined, which means that line is parallel to y-axis.

Use sigma notation to represent the sum of the first seven terms of the following sequence: −4, −6, −8, …

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1}^{7} -2 -2n[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference of consecutive terms is always the same, called common difference.

The nth term of a sequence is given by:

[tex]a_{n} = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]

In which [tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term and d is the common difference.

Sigma notation to represent the sum of the first seven terms

Sum going from the index starting at 1 and finishing at 7, that is:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1}^{7} f(n)[/tex]

Now we have to fund the function, which is given by an arithmetic sequence.

−4, −6, −8,

First term -4, common difference - 6 - (-4) = -6 + 4 = -2, so [tex]a_1 = -4, d = -2[/tex]

Then

[tex]f(n) = a_{n} = a_1 + (n-1)d[/tex]

[tex]f(n) = -4 + (n-1)(-2)[/tex]

[tex]f(n) = -4 - 2n + 2 = -2 - 2n[/tex]

Sigma notation:

Replacing f(n)

To solve you need to divide the three gallons of paint by the 5 cans. This can be solved in two ways.

Way 1 (fraction)

This is the easiest way, you simply put the first number in the equation on top and the second on the bottom, then simplify if possible. When we do this we get 3/5 and it can’t be simplified so we leave it as the fraction three fifths of 3/5.


Way 2 (decimal)

This way you divide 3 by 5, you can use long division to do this but it takes a long time. The answer is 0.6.

A confided aquifer has a piezometric height of 30 feet before being pumped. The well is then pumped at 250 gallons/day for a very long time and results in a drawdown of 10 feet at the well. If the transmissivity in the aquifer is 10.0 ft2/day and the radius of the well is 0.5 feet, estimate the drawdown in feet for a well 50 feet away

From the question we are told that:

Height of first draw down [tex]h=30[/tex]

The function represents the sequence is - 3 n + 23.

Step-by-step explanation:

20. 17, 14, 11, 8,......

Here, the first term is

a = 20

Common difference, d = -3

Let the nth term is Tn.

Tn = a + (n -1) d

Tn = 20 + (n -1) x (-3)

Tn = 20 - 3 n + 3

Tn = 23 - 3 n = - 3 n + 23

So, the function represents the sequence is - 3 n + 23.

Find a vector equation and parametric equations for the line The line through the point (2, 2.4, 3.5) and parallel to the vector 3i 1 2j 2 k

Answers

Answer:

The vector equation

[tex]r = (2 + 3t)i+ (2.4 + 2t)j+ (3.5 - t)k[/tex]

The parametric equation

[tex]x = 2 + 3t\\y = 2.4 + 2t\\z = 3.5-t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Point = (2,2.4,3.5)[/tex]

[tex]Vector = 3i + 2j - k[/tex]

Required

The vector equation

First, we calculate the position vector of the point.

This is represented as:

[tex]r_0 = 2i + 2.4j + 3.5k[/tex]

The vector equation is then calculated as:

[tex]r = r_o + t * Vector[/tex]

[tex]r = 2i + 2.4j + 3.5k + t * (3i + 2j - k)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]r = 2i + 2.4j + 3.5k + 3ti + 2tj - tk[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]r = 2i + 3ti+ 2.4j + 2tj+ 3.5k - tk[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]r = (2 + 3t)i+ (2.4 + 2t)j+ (3.5 - t)k[/tex]

The parametric equation is represented as:

[tex]x = x_0 + at\\y = y_0 + bt\\z = z_0 + ct[/tex]

Where

[tex]r = (x_0 + at)i +(y_0 + bt)j+(z_0 + ct)k[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]x = 2 + 3t\\y = 2.4 + 2t\\z = 3.5-t[/tex]

Find the area of the surface generated when the given curve is revolved about the y-axis. The part of the curve y=4x-1 between the points (1, 3) and (4, 15)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let take a look at the given function y = 4x - 1 whose point is located between (1,3) and (4,15) on the graph.

Here, the function of y is non-negative. Now, expressing y in terms of x in y = 4x- 1

4x = y + 1

[tex]x = \dfrac{y+1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x = \dfrac{1}{4}y + \dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

By integration, the required surface area in the revolve is:

[tex]S = \int^{15}_{ 3} 2 \pi g (y) \sqrt{1+g'(y^2) \ dy }[/tex]

where;

g(y) = [tex]x = \dfrac{1}{4}y + \dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

[tex]S = \int^{15}_{ 3} 2 \pi \Big( \dfrac{1}{4}y + \dfrac{1}{4}\Big) \sqrt{1+\Bigg(\Big( \dfrac{1}{4}y + \dfrac{1}{4}\Big)'\Bigg)^2 \ dy }[/tex]

[tex]S = \dfrac{1}{2} \pi \int^{15}_{ 3} (y+1) \sqrt{1+\Bigg(\Big( \dfrac{1}{4}\Big ) \Bigg)^2 \ dy } \\ \\ \\ S = \dfrac{1}{2} \pi \int^{15}_{ 3} (y+1) \dfrac{\sqrt{17}}{4} \ dy[/tex]

[tex]S = \dfrac{\sqrt{17}}{8} \pi \int^{15}_{ 3} (y+1) \ dy[/tex]

[tex]S = \dfrac{\sqrt{17} \pi}{8} (\dfrac{1}{2}(y+1)^2)\Big|^{15}_{3} \\ \\ S = \dfrac{\sqrt{17} \pi}{8} (\dfrac{1}{2}(15+1)^2-\dfrac{1}{2}(3+1)^2 ) \\ \\ S = \dfrac{\sqrt{17} \pi}{8} *120 \\ \\\mathbf{ S = 15 \sqrt{17}x}[/tex]

Percentage, a relative value indicating hundredth parts of any quantity.

Given,

Lisa bought a house The value of the house increased by 1.5% each year for 2 years

By the end of 2 years, the value of the house was £123,627.

A=P(1+rt)

A is the final amount,

r is rate of interest

t is the time

P is principle amount.

123,627=P(1+1.5/100 (2))

123657=P(1+0.15(2))

123657=P(1+0.3)
