The total number of animals in a shelter is modeled by f(x) = 2x2 - 45x, where x represents the number of
cages at the facility. How many cages are at the facility if it has a total of 243 animals there?
A. 25
B. 27
C. 33
D. 39

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of animals in a shelter is modeled by the function:

[tex]f(x)=2x^2-45x[/tex]

Where x is the number of cages at the facility.

We want to determine the number of cages if there are a total of 243 animals at the shelter.

So, we can set our function to 243 and solve for x:

[tex]243=2x^2-45x[/tex]

Subtract 243 from both sides:

[tex]2x^2-45x-243=0[/tex]

Solve the quadratic. Factoring and completing the square seems too difficult, so we can use the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this case, a = 2, b = -45, and c = -243. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-45)\pm\sqrt{(-45)^2-4(2)(-243)}}{2(2)}[/tex]

Evaluae:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{45\pm\sqrt{3969}}{4}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{45\pm63}{4}[/tex]

Therefore, our two solutions are:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{45+63}{4}=27\text{ or } x=\frac{45-63}{4}=-\frac{9}{2}[/tex]

Since we cannot have negative or half a cage, we can ignore the second solution.

Therefore, there are a total of 27 cages at the shelter.

Our answer is B.

The first three cards dealt from a
well-shuffled deck of cards are spades. What is the probability that the next card dealt will be a spade?​

Answers

There are four aces, 12 face cards and 4 7s in a standard 52 card deck. The probability of getting an ace on the first draw is 4/52 or 1/13. For the second draw there are now 51 cards in the deck (assuming the draws are without replacement), so the probability of getting a face card is 12/51. Given an ace and a face card on the first two draws, the probability of a 7 on the third draw is 4/50 or 2/25. The probability of getting all three is 1/13*12/51*2/25.

Answer:

D. 735.25 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well hello there! My name is Lunako, and I'm here to help you out.

What we need to do:

Firstly, do you remember the formula for finding the volume of the sphere? Yep, it's 4π(r³/3)! I'll substitute r for 5.6 -- which is 11.2 divided by 2, but you knew that already right? -- and π for 3.14 -- I'm doing that for relative ease.

4(3.14) * (5.6³/3) {Firstly we need to need find the cube of 5.6. That would be 175.616. Let me show the work for that: 5.6 * 5.6 = 25 + 3 + 3 + 0.36 = 31.36; 31.36 * 5.6 = 150 + 5 + 1.5 + 0.3 + 18 + 0.6 + 0.18  + 0.036 = 155 + 1.8 + 18.6 + 0.216 = 156.8 + 18.816 = 175.616}

4(3.14) * (175.616/3) {Now divide 175.616 by 3 to get 58.5387 (rounded to 54 places).}

4(3.14) * 58.5387 {Now onto the left sides. 3.14 quadrupled is 12.56.}

12.56 * 58.5387 {Now for the last step: Multiplying 12.56 by 58.5387. The work for that is shown in the picture. You should get 735.246072.}

735.246072 in³ {While this is the answer, we need to round it to two decimal places, like in the answer choices. 6 is greater then 5, so round up to 735.25.}

735.25 in³ {And with that this problem is solved.}

The Answer:

The volume of the sphere is 735.25 cubic inches, which is D.

On a coordinate grid, a trapezoid has vertices at (−6, 9), (−6, 6), (3, −9), and (3, 12). Each square on the grid represents 1 square foot. Explain how to find the area of the trapezoid.

Answers

Answer:

The area of the trapezoid is 108 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices of the trapezoid are;

(-6, 9), (-6, 6), (3, -9, and (3, 12)

Let the letters A, B, C, and D represent the vertices of the trapezoid, we have;

A(-6, 9), B(-6, 6), C(3, -9) and D(3, 12)

The drawing of the trapezoid on the coordinate plane created with MS Excel is attached

The area of a trapezoid, [tex]A_T[/tex] = (a + b)×h/2

Where;

'a', and 'b' = The length of the bases (parallel sides)

h = The height of the trapezoid (The distance between the bases)

Let 'a' represent the length of the long base CD and let 'b' represent the length of the short base AB

a = √((-9 - 12)² + (3 - 3)²) = 21

∴ a = 21 feet

Similarly, we have;

b = √((9 - 6)² + (-6 - (-6))² = 3

The height, h = The distance between AB and CD = AE

We note that sides AB and CD are parallel to the y-axis, therefore, the height which is the perpendicular distance to the between AB and CD will be parallel to the x-axis

Therefore, the t-coordinates of the points A and E are both equal to 9 and the length of AE = √((3 - (-6))² + (9 - 9)²) = 9

The height of the trapezoid, AE = 9 feet

∴ The area of the trapezoid, A = (21 + 3) × 9/2 = 108

The area of the trapezoid, [tex]A_T[/tex] = 108 ft.²

Nya wants to buy a sweater that had an original price of $50. The sweater is now discounted 15% and the sales tax rate is 6%. How much will Nya pay for the sweater? Round to the nearest cent (hundredths place). *

Answers

Answer:

$45.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Sale price of sweater is (1.00 - 0.15)($50), or 0.85($50) = $42.50.  Nya has to pay 6% sales tax on this $42.50.  Thus, the final amount due is

(1.00 + 0.06)($2.50) = $45.05

Answer:

46.42

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is to find the discount

Discount = original price * discount rate

= 55 * 20%

= 55*.20

=11

Take the discount from the original price and that is the new price

new price = original price - discount

= 55-11

=44

Now we need to find the tax

tax = new price * tax rate

= 44 * 5.5%

= 44 * .055

=2.42

The final price is the new price plus the tax

final price = new price + tax

= 44+2.42

=46.42

Therefore, Nya will pay $46.42 for the sweater if she buys it.

A helicopter flies from the airport on a course with a bearing of 21 degrees. After flying for 99 ​miles, the helicopter flies due east for some time. The helicopter flies back to the airport with a bearing of 227 degrees. How far did the helicopter fly on the final leg of its​ journey?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Initial bearing [tex]\angle _1=21 \textdegree[/tex]

Initial distance [tex]d_1=99miles[/tex]

Final bearing [tex]\angle _2=227 \textdegree[/tex]

Let [tex]\triangle OAB[/tex] be the perimeter travailed

[tex]\angle OAB=90+21=111 \textdegree\\\angle ABO=270-227=43 \textdegree[/tex]

 

Generally the equation for OB using sine rule is mathematically given by

[tex]OB=99*\frac{sin111}{sin43}[/tex]

[tex]OB=135.52miles[/tex]

Therefore the helicopter flight on the final leg of its​ journey is
