Please also show working out, thanks :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 4a/6b   y=(12xb+4b )/6b

6yb=12x+4a

a=(-12xb+6yb)/4=

a=3yb/2 -3xb

x=y/2-a/3b

b=2a/(3y-6x)

the solution is for every variable

Answer:  b) {-3, 0.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The new equation is the original equation plus 6.  Move the original graph UP 6 units.  The solutions are where it crosses the x-axis.

[tex]\text{Original equation:}\quad f(x)=\dfrac{15}{x}-\dfrac{9}{x^2}\\\\\\\text{New equation:}\quad\dfrac{15}{x}+6=\dfrac{9}{x^2}\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad f(x)= \dfrac{15}{x}-\dfrac{9}{x^2}+6[/tex]

+6 means it is a transformation UP 6 units.  

Solutions are where it crosses the x-axis.

The curve now crosses the x-axis at x = -3 and x = 0.5.

Answer:

Real interest rate = -1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Real interest rate=Nominal interest rate - inflation rate

From the above,

Nominal interest rate=1%

Inflation rate=2%

Real interest rate=Nominal interest rate - inflation rate

=1% - 2%

= -1%

Real interest rate = -1%

Real interest rate shows you what it really costs borrowers to pay back their loans.

if the real interest rate is greater than zero, the amount you pay back is worth more in real terms than the money you borrowed.

if the real interest rate is below zero as in the above case, the amount you will pay back is less worth in real terms than the money you borrowed.

Answer:

6,000 children

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 of 9,000 is 3,000

Meaning that out of 9,000 children, 3,000 WILL get affected. Since we are trying to figure out how many children will NOT get affected, just subtract the number of infected by the total amount which would be 6,000

Answer: If 36/7 is one of the options, choose that one.

If the question involves an exponent, you should use the "caret" which is ^ found above the 6 on a keyboard. [Shift + 6]. That helps avoid confusion.

Step-by-step explanation: 7 is equal to 35/5 because 7×5=35

Add 1/5 and you end up with 36/5. A Common rational number.

7^(1/5) = the 5th root of 7. A very small irrational number!

Answer:

$35

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula provided, d=(p−c)÷2 (where d is the discount, p is the original price, and c is the store's cost for the dress.) we can determine the discount.

The original price is 120,

d=(120−c)÷2

The store's cost is 50,

d=(120−50)÷2

So we subtract 120 and 50 to get

d=(70)÷2

70 divide by two is

d= 35

The discount is $35

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3^6 is only divisible by 3 and powers of 3(including 1) the gcd of 3^6 and 6^3 mus be a power of 3 hence we need to find the highest powers of 3 that divide 6^3 and that divide 3^6, which are respectively 3^3 and 3^6, hence, taking the smaller one (since we want it to divide both), our answer is 3^3=27.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest common divisor is the largest positive integer that divides each integer in the given problem

6³ = (2* 3)³ = 2³ * 3³

3⁶ = 3³ * 3³

Greatest common divisor = 3³ = 3* 3* 3 = 27

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of representatives of a multi-level marketing company as a function of the number of days that have passed can be modeled by the exponential function R(d) = 150(1.03)^d, to calculate the number of representatives that the company have after 75 days, we will substitute d = 75 into the modeled equation.

R(75) = 150(1.03)^75

R(75) = 150*9.1789

R(75) = 1,376.835

Hence, the company have about 1377 representatives after 75 days.

D. The line is perpendicular to the plane determined by the two lines.

Remember how you get to 3D space?

You take one axis called x and perpendicularly intersect it with y axis and you get a 2D plane. Now take a 2D plane and perpendicularly intersect it with an axis z and you get 3D euclidean space.

Hope this helps.

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

Explanation:

The boundary line is y = 2x-2. This line goes through (0,-2) and (2,2). Use the slope formula to find the slope to be m = 2, and use the y intercept b = -2 to help form the equation.

Since the boundary line is solid, we will have "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign. This indicates points on the boundary are part of the solution set. Furthermore, we will have a greater than sign because the shaded region is above the boundary. Therefore, we change the equal sign to a "greater than or equal to" sign, going from y = 2x-2 to [tex]y \ge 2x-2[/tex]

If we simply did [tex]y > 2x-2[/tex] without the "or equal to" portion, then the boundary line would be dotted or dashed to tell the reader "points on the boundary are not part of the solution set".

Answer:

The solutions of 2·cos(θ) - √3 = 0in the interval [0, 2pi) are;

π/6,  13/6·π

Step-by-step explanation:

The given that the equation is 2·cos(θ) - √3 = 0

The solution of the above equation in the interval [0, 2pi) are required

Therefore, the domain includes 0 ≤ θ < 2pi

2·cos(θ) - √3 = 0

2·cos(θ)  = √3

cos(θ)  = √3/2

Therefore;

θ = cos⁻¹(√3/2)

The values are;

[tex]\theta =\dfrac{12 \cdot \pi \cdot n_1 +\pi }{6} \, or \, \theta =-\dfrac{12 \cdot \pi \cdot n_1 +\pi }{6}[/tex]

Where the domain is 0 ≤ θ < 2pi, we have;

Answer:

[tex]\sf x=\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite expression with bases of 4.

[tex]\sf{4^{\frac{3}{4} }} \times \sf({4^\frac{1}{2} )^x =(4^2)^{\frac{2}{5} }[/tex]

Apply law of exponents, when bases are same for exponents in multiplication, add the exponents. When a base with an exponent has a whole exponent, then multiply the two exponents.

[tex]\sf{4^{\frac{3}{4} }} \times \sf{4^{\frac{1}{2} x}=4^{\frac{4}{5} }[/tex]

[tex]\sf{4^{\frac{3}{4} +\frac{1}{2} x}=4^{\frac{4}{5} }[/tex]

Cancel same bases.

[tex]\sf \frac{3}{4} +\frac{1}{2} x=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Subtract 3/4 from both sides.

[tex]\sf \frac{1}{2} x=\frac{1}{20}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2.

[tex]\sf x=\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

2^{2*3/4} × 2^{x}=2^{4×2/5}

2^{3/2} × 2^{x}= 2^{8/5}

2^{3/2+x}=2^{8/5}

equate powers

{3+2x}/2= 2^2

5{3+2x}= 2{8}

15+10x=16

collect like terms

10x=16-15

10x=1

divide both sides by 10

x=1/10

x=0.1

Answer:

tan θ = [tex]\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

The height of the blimp above the ground is h = 153.884 yard

No,  the fans will not be able to read the advertisement.

The exact angle if the blimp is at 150 feet is 45.74°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the summary of the information given :

The angle of elevation from a point directly under the goal post is 72° and the blimp will be directly above the 50 yard line.

That statement above being illustrated in the attached diagram below for better understanding.

a. Which trigonometric ratio would you use to calculate how high the blimp will be above the 50 yard line?

The trigonometric ratio that can be used to calculate how high the blimp will be above the 50 yard line is :

tan θ = [tex]\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

b. How high above the ground is the blimp?

Using the above derived trigonometric ratio,

tan θ = [tex]\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

[tex]tan \ 72^0 = \dfrac{h}{50}[/tex]

[tex]h =tan \ 72^0 \times {50}[/tex]

[tex]h =3.07768 \times {50}[/tex]

h = 153.884 yard

The height of the blimp above the ground is h = 153.884 yard

c. In order to be able to read the advertisement on the side of the blimp the highest the blimp can be is 150 feet.

Will the fans be able to read the advertisement?

No,  the fans will not be able to read the advertisement.

This is  because, 153.884 yard to feet

=  153.884 × 3

= 461.652 feet which is more than the maximum given 150 feet.

If not, what possible angle of elevation could we use?

The possible angle of elevation can be determined by taking the tangent of the trigonometric ratio.

SO

tan θ = [tex]\dfrac{h}{150}[/tex]

tan θ = [tex]\dfrac{153.884}{150 \ feet}[/tex]

tan θ =  1.026

θ = tan ⁻¹ (1.026)

θ = 45.74°

d. What is the exact angle if the blimp is at 150 feet?

The exact angle if the blimp is at 150 feet is 45.74°

Answer:

[tex]\approx[/tex] 11 litres of water will fit inside the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given figure, we have a container formed with combination of a right angled cone placed at the top of a right cylinder.

Given:

Height of cylinder, [tex]h_1[/tex] = 15 cm

Diameter of cylinder/ cone, D = 26 cm

Slant height of cone, l = 20 cm

Here, we need to find the volume of container.[tex]\\Volume_{Container} = Volume_{Cylinder}+Volume_{Cone}\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = \pi r_1^2 h_1+\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r_2^2 h_2[/tex]

Here,

[tex]r_1=r_2 = \dfrac{Diameter}{2} = \dfrac{26}{2} =13\ cm[/tex]

To find the Height of Cylinder, we can use the following formula:

[tex]l^2 = r_2^2+h_2^2\\\Rightarrow h_2^2 = 20^2-13^2\\\Rightarrow h_2^2 = 400-169\\\Rightarrow h_2^2 = 231\\\Rightarrow h_2=15.2\ cm \approx 15\ cm[/tex]

Now, putting the values to find the volume of container:

[tex]Volume_{Container} = \pi \times 13^2 \times 15+\dfrac{1}{3}\pi \times 13^2 \times 15\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = \pi \times 13^2 \times 15+\pi \times 13^2 \times 5\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = \pi \times 13^2 \times 20\\\Rightarrow Volume_{Container} = 10613.2 \approx 10613\ cm^3[/tex]

Converting [tex]cm^{3 }[/tex] to litres:

[tex]10613 cm^3 = 10.613\ litres \approx 11\ litres[/tex]

[tex]\approx[/tex] 11 litres of water will fit inside the container.

Answer:

0.431 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the following values:

Height the tennis ball was dropped = 100in

Rebound height = 58in

We have to find the rebound ratio

= 58in/100in = 0.58

The formula to be used

Height on nth bounce = Initial height × (Rebound ratio)ⁿ

Where n = number of bounce

Height on the 10th bounce = 100 × (0.58)^10

Height on the 10th bounce = 0.4308042069inches

Approximately, the height on the 10th bounce = 0.431 inches.
