if a fraction product always l esser than the lesser factor

Answers

Answer 1

We have that whenever you multiply two positive fractions, the product will be smaller than both factors. For example, if we have the following:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

notice that both factors are fractions and the product is less than both factors.

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to y= 3x -2 and contains the point (2,11) Y= ?x + ?

Answers

Solution:

Given:

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=3x-2 \\ \text{Through the point (2,11)} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Two parallel lines have identical slopes.

[tex]m_1=m_2[/tex]

Hence, the slope of line 1 is gotten by comparing the equation given to the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form.

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{where m is the slope} \\ b\text{ is the y-intercept} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ y=3x-2 \\ \\ \text{Comparing both equations,} \\ m_1=3 \\ \text{The slope of line 1 is 3.} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since both lines are parallel, then the slopes are equal.

[tex]\begin{gathered} m_1=m_2=3 \\ m_2=3 \\ \text{The slope of line 2 is 3} \end{gathered}[/tex]

To get the equation of line 2 through the point (2,11), the formula below is used;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1}=m \\ \\ \text{where;} \\ x_1=2 \\ y_1=11 \\ m=3 \\ \text{Hence,} \\ \frac{y-11}{x-2}=3 \\ \text{Cross multiplying,} \\ y-11=3(x-2) \\ y-11=3x-6 \\ y=3x-6+11 \\ y=3x+5 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the line that is parallel to y = 3x - 2 passing through the point (2,11) is;

Annette Michaelson will need $11,000 in 8 years to help pay for her education. Determine the lump sum, deposited today at 4.5% compounded monthly, will produce the necessary amount.​

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

9)

it is not linear, because while x is increasing with every data point by 1, y is decreasing and increasing again, and the differences from one point to the other vary.

for a linear relationship also y has to change in a constant way, and the difference from one point to the next would be the same for all points.

10)

so, since it is not linear, it is quadratic then (since that was our only given alternative).

y = ax² + bx + c

we know c from point (0, -6). c = -6.

for a and b we need to use 2 data points with their x and y coordinates.

let's start with the first (-2, 14)

14 = a×(-2)² + b×-2 - 6 = 4a - 2b - 6

we can simplify that

7 = 2a - b - 3

and then

10 = 2a - b

the next point is (-1, -1)

-1 = a×(-1)² + b×-1 - 6 = a - b - 6

5 = a - b

so, we have the 2 equations

10 = 2a - b

5 = a - b

from the second we get

a = 5 + b

and that we can use in the first equation

10 = 2×(5 + b) - b = 10 + 2b - b

0 = b

therefore

5 = a - b = a - 0 = a

a = 5

and the equation is

y = 5x² - 6

Explanation:

Given:

Volume of a cylinder (V) = 4pi cubic units

To find:

Base area(A) and height(h)

Recall that the volume of a cylinder(A) is usually given as;

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=A*h \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]

So let's go ahead and try each of the options and see which gives us 4pi on the left-hand side as we have on the right-hand side for Volume.

For option A;

We have that A = 1 and h = 2, so we'll have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} V=A*h \\ 4\pi=1*2 \\ 4\pi\ne2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

For option B;

We have A = 2pi and h = 1, so we'll have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4\pi=2\pi *1 \\ 4\pi\ne2\pi \end{gathered}[/tex]

For option C;

We have A = 2pi and h = 2, so we'll have;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 4\pi=2\pi *2 \\ 4\pi=4\pi \end{gathered}[/tex]

We can see from the above that option C is the right option.

Rolls are being prepared to go to grocery stores. Divide 72 rolls into 2 groups so the ratio is 3 to 5

Answers

The number of rolls divided in the two groups so that the ratio is 3 to 5 is 27 and 45 respectively.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

Rolls are being prepared to go to grocery stores.

Now, we have to divide 72 rolls into 2 groups so the ratio is 3 to 5.

Now, let's take the number of rolls given to the first group to be 3x and the number of rolls given to the second group to be 5x.

So, we have the following expression:

3x+5x = 72

8x = 72

x = 72/8

x = 9

So, the number of rolls for the first group:

3x

3*9

27

Now, the number of rolls for the second group:

5x

5*9

Hence, the number of rolls divided in the given two group is 27 and 45.

you want to buy one pair of pants, one t-shirt, and several pairs of socks. the pants cost $24.95, the t-shirt cost $22.50 and the socks are $5.95 per pair. how many pairs of socks can you buy if you have $80 to spend?*for this question you have to write and inequality solve it and answer the question in words*

Answers

ANSWER

5 pairs

EXPLANATION

We have that:

- one pair of pants cost $24.95

- one t-shirt costs $22.50

- one pair of socks cost $5.95

You want to buy one pair of pants, one t-shirt and several pairs of socks and you don't want to spend more than $80.

This means that everything you spend must be less than or equal to $80.

Let the number of pairs of socks you can buy be x.

This therefore means that:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 24.95+22.50+(5.95\cdot x)\text{ }\leq80 \\ \Rightarrow\text{ }24.95\text{ + 22.50 + 5.95x }\leq80 \\ \text{Find x:} \\ 47.45\text{ + 5.95x }\leq80 \\ \Rightarrow\text{ 5.95x }\leq80\text{ - 47.45} \\ 5.95x\text{ }\leq32.55 \\ x\text{ }\leq\frac{32.55}{5.95} \\ x\leq5.47 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Because we know that the number of pairs of socks must be a whole number, we have to approximiate to whole number, which will be:

x = 5

Therefore, you can buy at most 5 pairs of socks.

Garret’s coin bank contains500 nickels dimes and quarters. He has the same number of nickels as dimes and the total value of the coins is &72.50. How many quarters does he have?

Answers

Since he has the same number of nickels as dimes.

x = nickels

x = dimes

500 - 2x = quarters

the total value of the coins is $72.50

5x + 10x + 25(500-2x) = 7250

Solve for x

15x + 25(500) + 25(-2x) = 7250

15x + 12,500 - 50x = 7250

Combine like terms

15x - 50x = 7250 - 12500

-35x = -5250

Divide both sides of the equation by -35

-35x/-35 = -5250/-35

x = 150

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for calulating mean deviation is expressed as:

[tex]\frac{1}{n}\sum ^n_{i\mathop=1}|x_i-m|[/tex]

where;

m is the mean of the data set

Xi are individual values

n is the total sample space

Get the mean;

n = 7

mean = (10+12+11+15+9+8+5)/7

mean = 70/7

mean = 10

Get the mean deviation:

Mean deviation = (10-10)+(12-10)+(11-10)+(15-10)+(9-10)+(8-10)+(5-10)/7

Is r = 3 + 3sin θ symmetrical along the y axis?

Answers

Answer:

Yes.  r = 3 + 3sin θ is symmetrical along the y axis

Step-by-step explanation:

Original polar equation is

r = 3 + 3sinθ

If this plot is to be symmetrical about the y axis then replacing Θ with (π-θ) in the original equation should not change the equation and thereby should not change the plot

r = 3 + 3sinθ

Replace θ with π-θ:

==>  3 + 3sin(π-θ)

But sin(π-θ) = sinθ

So the equation is unchanged at 3 + 3sin(π-θ) from the original equation r = 3 + 3sinθ

Hence the equation is symmetrical along the y-axis

This can be also be clearly seen if you plot both the equations, you will see the plot does not change

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 9 and 84 are alternate interior angles.

Since,

lines l and m are parallel, alternate interior angles are equal.

So,

5x + 9 = 84

Step 1 : Subtract 9 on both sides.

5x = 84 - 9

5x = 75

Step 2 : Divide 5 on both sides.

x = 75/5

x = 15

Hence,

The value of x is 15.
