(30 POINTS!!!) One press can run the day’s newspapers in 6 hours, while another can do the same job in 8 hours. After running together for 2 hours to complete the job, the faster one breaks. How much longer must the slower press run to finish the newspapers?

Answers

Answer 1

Amount of the job done after 2 hours:

2(1/6 + 1/8)

2(4/24 + 3/24)

2(7/24)

7/12 (amount of job finished)

.

amount of job left to do:

1 - 7/12

 

12/12 - 7/12

5/12 (remaining)

.

Let x = time (hours) slower press takes to finish job

then

x(1/6) = 5/12

multiplying both sides by 6:

x = 5/12 *6

x = 5/2 hours

or

x = 2 hours and 30 minutes

The slower press (8-hour press), will take h 3 hours, 20 minutes to complete the job

Which represents the inverse of the function f(x) = 4x?
h(x) = x + 4
h(x) = x -4
h(x) = 3
h(x) =
77 X​

Answers

Answer: D)  h(x) = (1/4)x

This is the same as h(x) = x/4

In decimal form, it would be h(x) = 0.25x

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

Explanation:

Inverses undo the original function. The original function tells us to take any input (x) and multiply by 4 to get the output y = f(x) = 4x

To get the inverse, we reverse the operation applied here. The opposite of multiplication is division. So we'll divide by 4 instead of multiply by 4. This is why the answer is x/4 or (1/4)x

-----------

Another approach is to do the following: Replace f(x) with y. Swap x and y. Solve for y

f(x) = 4x

y = 4x

x = 4y

4y = x

y = x/4

h(x) = x/4

We end up with the same result as before.

-----------

Extra info:

For any real number x, the following two equations are true

h( f(x) ) = x

f( h(x) ) = x

A plane traveled 5525 miles with the wind in 8.5 hours and 4505 miles against the wind in the same amount of time. Find the speed of the plane in still air and the speed of the wind. The speed of the plane in still air is _____ (Hours,Miles,Mph) Simplify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the plane in still air is 590Mph

The speed of the wind is 60Mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

s= the speed of the plane in still air

w= the speed of the wind

Flying with the wind:

5525=(s+w)*8.5

5525=8.5s + 8.5w (1)

Flying against the wind:

4505=(s-w)*8.5

4505=8.5s - 8.5w (2)

Add (1) and (2) to eliminate w

5525=8.5s + 8.5w

4505=8.5s - 8.5w

10,030=17s

Divide both sides by 17

10,030/17=17s/17

590=s

s=590Mph

Substitute the value of s into (1)

5525=8.5s + 8.5w

5525=8.5(590) + 8.5w

5525=5,015 + 8.5w

5525-5015=8.5w

510=8.5w

Divide both sides by 8.5

60=w

w=60Mph

The speed of the plane in still air is 590Mph

The speed of the wind is 60Mph

RQP=ONP

Since R is the midpoint of MQ, then MR and RQ are equal.

Since R is the midpoint of MQ, then P must be the midpoint of NQ

The triangles are congruent and the trapezoid is three or those triangles.

RQR reflected is a triangle inside the trapezoid. The triangles at the left and right of the trapezoid are congruent.

Since all the triangles are the exact same, then they have the same height and same length.

So you connect them without like sliding a triangle up a little bit.

A taxi driver charges a flat rate of $3.50 plus an additional $1.65 per mile. If Mohammad wants to spend, at most, $60, how far can he travel in the taxi cab?
Round your answer to the nearest mile.
O A. 34 miles
OB. 17 miles
C. 35 miles
D. 16 miles

Answers

Answer:

A. 34 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to subtract $3.50 from $60. Now you have $56.50. Now you want to divide that by $1.65, to see how many miles you can achieve with your price limit. So, now you have a grand total of 34.24. You round that, and you finally have your answer.

The answer to this problem is A. 34 miles

The number of miles that he can travel in the taxi cab will be 17 miles. Then the correct option is B.

What is a linear equation?

A connection between a number of variables results in a linear model when a graph is displayed. The variable will have a degree of one.

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

A cab driver charges a level pace of $3.50 in addition to an extra $1.65 per mile.

Let 'y' be the total amount and 'x' be the number of miles. Then we have

y = 3.50x + 1.65

If Mohammad wants to spend, at most $60. Then the number of miles is given as,

60 = 3.50x + 1.65

3.50x = 58.35

x = 16.67

x ≈ 17 miles

The number of miles that he can travel in the taxi cab will be 17 miles. Then the correct option is B.

in a survey of 420 people, 85% said they drink coffee. of these, 1/3 said they drink their coffee black. how many of the people surveyed drink it black?​

Answers

Answer:

A.) 119

420 * 0.85 is 357 and 357 * 1/3 is 119

Hope this helps ^^

Answer:

119

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people who had taken the survey is 420 wich is equivalent to 100%.

The percentage of people who drink coffee is 85%.

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

Let x be the number of people drinking coffee

● 420 => 100%

● x => 85%

These values are proportional so we can cross-multiply them

● x*100 = 420*85

● x = (420*85)÷100

● x = 357

The number of people who drink coffee is 357.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let y be the number of people who drink black coffee.

y is 1/3 of 357 since people who drink black coffee represent the third of the total number of people drinking coffee in general.

● To get y multiply 1/3 by the total number of people drinking coffee (357)

●y = (1/3)*357

● y = 119

119 is the number of people who drink black coffee

Then 7 / 14 which is 1/2.

So 1/2 * 1 is 1/2.

Answer:

1/2 or 0.5 (same thing)

Describe how the graph of the equation relates to the graph of y = x2.
f(x) = -x + 5)2

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's y = x^2, not y = x2.  The graph of y = x^2 is a parabola with vertex (0, 0) and which opens up.

The graph of y = (x + 5)^2 has the same shape as that of y = x^2, but has been translated 5 units to the left.

The graph of the function f(x) = - (x + 5)² will rotate along the x-axis and shift 5 units to the left.

What is translation?

There are four different kinds of translation: stretching, shrinking, rotating, and shifting.

When shifting, the entire graph is moved in the XY direction. When expanding and contracting a graph, we do so by a factor of k. When rotating a graph, we do so either clockwise or counterclockwise.

We know the graph of the equation y = x² is a parabola that opens upwards.

Now, the graph of equation f(x) = - (x + 5)² will first rotate 180° along the x-axis as there is a change in sign y and shift x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5 shift 5 units to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric sequence has a common ratio r between consecutive terms.

An arithmetic sequence has a common difference d between consecutive terms, thus

11 ÷ 14 ≠ 8 ÷ 11 ≠ 5 ≠ 8 ← not geometric

11 - 14 = - 3

8 - 11 = - 3

5 - 8 = - 3

There is a common difference d between consecutive terms

Thus sequence is arithmetic.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence.

First term = a = 14

Second term = 11

Common difference = second term -  first term

                                 = 11 - 14

                                =  - 4

Each term is got by adding (-4) to the previous term

Third term = 11 + (-4) = 11 -4 = 8
