Answer:
The slower plane is flying at 175 miles per hour and complete the trip in 10 hours
The faster plane is flying at 250 Miles per hour and complete the trip in 7 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s= speed of the slower plane s+75= speed of the faster plane
The time it takes the slower plane to make the flight = 1750/s
The time it takes the faster plane to make the flight is=1750/(s+75)
The difference in these two times is 3 hours
1750/s - 1750/(s+7)=3
{(s+75) / (s+75) * (1750/s)} - {(s/s) * (1750/s+75)} =3
(1750s+131250 / s^2+75s) - (1750s/s^2+75s) =3
1750s+131,250-1750s / s^2+75d =3
131,250 / s^2+75s = 3
Cross product
131,250=3(s^2+75s)
131,250=3s^2+225s
43,750=s^2+75s
s^2+75s-43,750=0
Solve the quadratic equation
x= -b +or- √b^2-4ac / 2a
a=1
b=75
c= -43750
x= -b +or- √b^2-4ac / 2a
= -75 +or- √(75)^2 - (4)(1)(-43750) / (2)(1)
= -75 +or- √(5625) - (-175,000) / 2
= -75 +or- √180625) / 2
= -75 +or- 425 / 2
x= -75 + 425/2 OR -75- 425/2
=350/2 OR -500/2
x=175 OR -250
We will ignore the negative sign because the planes are not flying Backward
The slower plane is flying at 175 miles per hour and complete the trip in 1750/175= 10 hours
The faster plane is flying at 250 Miles per hour and complete the trip in 1750/250= 7 hours
A middle school took all of its 6th grade students on a field trip to see a play at a theatre that has 2000 seats. The students filled 65% of the seats in the theatre. How many 6th graders went on the trip?
Answer: 1,300 students went on the trip
Step-by-step explanation: So we know that 65% filled the seats so let's turn that into a fraction. [tex]\frac{65}{100}[/tex] . Now we know that there are 2,000 seats in total so let's put that into a fraction. [tex]\frac{x}{2,000}[/tex] The x represents the students that went on the trip.
[tex]\frac{65}{100} = \frac{x}{2,000}[/tex] we have to cross multiply
65(2,000) = 100 (x)
130,000 = 100 (x)
130,000 ÷ 100
1,300 = x So now we know that 1,300 went to the trip students

Answer:
inverse = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / (2log(4)), or
c. y = ( log_4(x+4) + 1 ) / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find inverse of
y = 4^(-6x+5) / 4^(-8x+6) - 4
Exchange x and y and solve for y.
1. exchange x, y
x = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6) - 4
2. solve for y
x = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6) - 4
transpose
x+4 = 4^(-6y+5) / 4^(-8y+6)
using the law of exponents
x+4 = 4^( (-6y+5) - (-8y+6) )
simplify
x+4 = 4^( 2y - 1 )
take log on both sides
log(x+4) = log(4^( 2y - 1 ))
apply power property of logarithm
log(x+4) = (2y-1) log(4)
Transpose
2y - 1 = log(x+4) / log(4)
transpose
2y = log(x+4) / log(4) + 1 = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / log(4)
y = ( log(x+4) + log(4) ) / (2log(4))
Note: if we take log to the base 4, then log_4(4) =1, which simplifies the answer to
y = ( log_4(x+4) + 1 ) / 2
which corresponds to the third answer.
A car bought for $20,000. Its value depreciates by 10% each year for 3 years. What is the car's worth after3 years?
Answer:
$14,580
Step-by-step explanation:
To start off, 10% of 20,000-one easy way to do this is to multiply 20,000 by 0.1, which is 10% in decimal form
-In doing that, you get 2,000
-Now the question says that the value is depreciated which means it goes down in value, so subtract 2,000 from 20,000 to 18,000
-the value of the car after one year is now $18,000
Now, let's move to the second year. This time find 10% of 18,000
-multiply 18,000 by 0.1 to get 1,800
-since the value is depreciating, or becoming less, we will subtract 1,800 from 18,000 to get 16,200
-the value of the car after two years is now $16,200
Finally, let's look at the value of the car after three years. Only this time, we will now find 10% of 16,200
-multiply 16,200 by 0.1 to get 1,620
-since value is being depreciated, or lessened, we will once again be subtracting. Subtract 1,620 from 16,200 to get 14,580
Therefore, the value of the car after three years is now $14,580.
The mean one-way commute to work in Chowchilla is 7 minutes. The standard deviation is 2.4 minutes, and the population is normally distributed. What is the probability of randomly selecting one commute time and finding that: a). P (x < 2 mins) _____________________________ b). P (2 < x < 11 mins) _____________________________ c). P (x < 11 mins) ________________________________ d). P (2 < x < 5 mins) _______________________________ e). P (x > 5 mins)
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The mean (μ) one-way commute to work in Chowchilla is 7 minutes. The standard deviation (σ) is 2.4 minutes.
The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. It is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
a) For x < 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 2) = P(z < -2.08) = 0.0188 = 1.88%
b) For x = 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
For x = 11:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{11-7}{2.4} =1.67[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(2 < x < 11) = P(-2.08 < z < 1.67 ) = P(z < 1.67) - P(z < -2.08) = 0.9525 - 0.0188 = 0.9337
c) For x = 11:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{11-7}{2.4} =1.67[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 11) = P(z < 1.67) = 0.9525
d) For x = 2:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2-7}{2.4} =-2.08[/tex]
For x = 5:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{5-7}{2.4} =-0.83[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(2 < x < 5) = P(-2.08 < z < -0.83 ) = P(z < -0.83) - P(z < -2.08) = 0.2033- 0.0188 = 0.1845
e) For x = 5:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{5-7}{2.4} =-0.83[/tex]
From normal distribution table, P(x < 5) = P(z < -0.83) = 0.2033
Solve the equation and show the solution set on a number line: |x+5|=x+5
Answer: x ≥ -5
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's see how the function f(x) = IxI works:
if x ≥ 0, IxI = x
if x ≤ 0, IxI = -x
Notice that for 0, I0I = 0.
Ok, we want that:
|x+5| = x+5
Notice that this is equivalent to:
IxI = x
This means that |x+5| = x+5 is only true when:
(x + 5) ≥ 0
from this we can find the possible values of x:
we can subtract 5 to both sides and get:
(x + 5) -5 ≥ 0 - 5
x ≥ -5
So the graph in the number line will be a black dot in x = -5, and all the right region shaded.

If $6a^2 + 5a + 4 = 3,$ then what is the smallest possible value of $2a + 1$?
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation: [tex]6a^2+5a+4=3[/tex]
Subtract 3 from both the sides, we get
[tex]6a^2+5a+1=0[/tex]
Now , we can split 5a as 2a+3a and [tex]2a\times 3a = 6a^2[/tex]
So, [tex]6a^2+5a+1=0\Rightarrow\ 6a^2+2a+3a+1=0[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow\ 2a(3a+1)+(3a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (3a+1)(2a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (3a+1)=0\text{ or }(2a+1)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ a=-\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ or }a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
At [tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
[tex]2a+1=2(-\dfrac{1}{3})+1=-\dfrac{2}{3}+1=\dfrac{-2+3}{3}=\dfrac{1}3{}[/tex]
At [tex]a=-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]2a+1=2(-\dfrac{1}{2})+1=-1+1=0[/tex]
Since, [tex]0< \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]
Hence, the possible value of 2a+1 is 0.
Consider the function represented by the table.
What is f(0)?
04
O 5
06
O 7
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the table given defining a function, the values of "x" on the table represents the input of the function, which gives us an output, f(x), which can be labelled as "y" in some instances.
Thus, the value of f(0), is simply the output value we would get, given an input value of "0".
So therefore, f(0) = 6. That is, at x = 0, f(x) = 6.

The graph of h(x) is a translation of f (x) = RootIndex 3 StartRoot x EndRoot. On a coordinate plane, a cube root function goes through (negative 3, negative 1), has an inflection point at (negative 2, 0), and goes through (negative 1, 1). Which equation represents h(x)?
Answer:
The correct option is;
[tex]h(x) = \sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that h(x) is a translation of f(x) = ∛x
From the points on the graph, given that the function goes through (-1, 1) and (-3, -1) we have;
When x = -1, h(x) = 1
When x = -3, h(x) = -1
h''(x) = (-2, 0)
Which gives
d²(∛(x + a))/dx²= [tex]-\left ( \dfrac{2}{9} \cdot \left (x + a \right )^{\dfrac{-5}{3}}\right )[/tex], have coordinates (-2, 0)
When h(x) = 0, x = -2 which gives;
[tex]-\left ( \dfrac{2}{9} \cdot \left (-2 + a \right )^{\dfrac{-5}{3}}\right ) = 0[/tex]
Therefore, a = (0/(-2/9))^(-3/5) + 2
a = 2
The translation is h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex]
We check, that when, x = -1, y = 1 which gives;
h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{-1 + 2} = \sqrt[3]{1} = 1[/tex] which satisfies the condition that h(x) passes through the point (-1, 1)
For the point (-3, -1), we have;
h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{-3 + 2} = \sqrt[3]{-1} = -1[/tex]
Therefore, the equation, h(x) = [tex]\sqrt[3]{x + 2}[/tex] passes through the points (-1, 1) and (-3, -1) and has an inflection point at (-2, 0).

Right triangle ABC is located in A(-1,-2), B(-1,1) and C(3,1) on a coordinate plane. what is the equation of a circle with radius AC?
A) (x+1)*2+(y+2)*2=9
B) (x+1)*2+(y+2)*2=25
C) (x-3)*2+(y-1)*2= 16
D) (x-3)*2+(y-1)*2=25
Answer:
Hey there!
First, we want to find the radius of the circle, which equals the length of line segment AC.
Length of line segment AC, which we can find with the distance formula: [tex]\sqrt{25\\[/tex], which is equal to 5.
The equation for a circle, is: [tex](x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2[/tex], where (h, k) is the center of the circle, and r is the radius.
Although I don't know the center of the circle, I can tell you that it is either choice B or D, because the radius, 5, squared, is 25.
Hope this helps :) (And let me know if you edit the question)
Answer: The equation of the circle is (x+1)²+(y+1)² = 25
Step-by-step explanation: Use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the length of the radius from the coordinates given for the triangle location: A(-1,-2), B(-1,1) and C(3,1) The sides of the triangle are AB=3, BC=4, AC=5.
Use the equation for a circle: ( x - h )² + ( y - k )² = r², where ( h, k ) is the center and r is the radius.
As the directions specify, the radius is AC, so it makes sense to use the coordinates of A (-1,-2) as the center. h is -1, k is -2 The radius 5, squared becomes 25.
Substituting those values, we have (x -[-1])² + (y -[-2])² = 25 .
When substituted for h, the -(-1) becomes +1 and the -(-2) for k becomes +2.
We end up with the equation for the circle as specified:
(x+1)²+(y+1)² = 25
A graph of the circle is attached. I still need to learn how to define line segments; the radius is only the segment of the line between the center (-1,-2) and (1,3)

A total of $10,000 is invested in two mutual funds. The first account yields 5% and the second account yields 6%. How much was invested in each account if the total interest earned in a year is $575?
Answer:
$2,500 was invested in the first account while $7,500 was invested in the second account
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we want to find the amount which was invested in each of the accounts, given their individual interest rates and the total amount that was accorded as interest from the two investments
Now, since we do not know the amount invested , we shall be representing them with variables.
Let the amount invested in the first account be $x and the amount invested in the second account be $y
Since the total amount invested is $10,000, this means that the summation of both gives $10,000
Mathematically;
x + y = 10,000 ••••••(i)
now for the $x, we have an interest rate of 5%
This mathematically translates to an interest value of 5/100 * x = 5x/100
For the $y, we have an interest rate of 6% and this mathematically translates to a value of 6/100 * y= 6y/100
The addition of both interests, gives 575
Thus mathematically;
5x/100 + 6y/100 = 575
Multiplying through by 100, we have
5x + 6y = 57500 •••••••••(ii)
From 1, we can have x = 10,000-y
let’s substitute this into equation ii
5(10,000-y) + 6y = 57500
50,000-5y + 6y = 57500
50,000 + y = 57500
y = 57500-50,000
y = 7,500
Recall;
x = 10,000-y
so we have;
x = 10,000-7500 = 2,500

B. The horizontal cross-sections of the prisms at the same height have the same area.
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the cone and the pyramid have the same volume. This is important.
This follows the Cavalieri's principle that, for the case of 3 dimensions, as the present case, it states, roughly, that if we have two bodies like the cone and the pyramid, and if we have parallel planes crossing each section, and we always have the same area, these two bodies have the same volume.
In this case, both, cone and pyramid have the same volume, then (reciprocally):

The SAS Postulate
Step-by-step explanation:
SAS means Side-Angle-Side; that is, two sides are equal and an angle between those sides are equal. We're given two sides: TK and TL, and we're given that 1 is congruent to 2. Knowing the latter, we can conclude that the angle between them (let's call it 1.5 for our purposes) will be congruent to itself. Since 1.5 is the angle right in the middle of two congruent sides, our answer is SAS.

Solve the right triangle given that mA =30°, mC = 90° and a = 15. Then round your result to ONE decimal place
Answer:
m∠B = 60°
b = 26 units
c = 30 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In a right triangle ACB,
By applying Sine rule,
[tex]\frac{\text{SinA}}{a}=\frac{\text{SinB}}{b}=\frac{SinC}{c}[/tex]
m∠A = 30°, m∠C = 90°
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°
30° + m∠B + 90° = 180°
m∠B = 180° - 120°
m∠B = 60°
Therefore, [tex]\frac{\text{Sin30}}{15}=\frac{\text{Sin90}}{c}=\frac{\text{Sin60}}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30}=\frac{\text{Sin90}}{c}=\frac{\text{Sin60}}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30} =\frac{1}{c}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}{b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30}=\frac{1}{c}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2b}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{30} =\frac{1}{c}[/tex] ⇒ c = 30 units
[tex]\frac{1}{30}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2b}[/tex]
b = 15√3
b = 25.98
b ≈ 26 units
find x value A. 8.96 B. 10.83 C. 5.10 D. 6.09
Answer:
6.09
Step-by-step explanation:
in ADB
[tex]a ^{2} + b^{2} = c ^{2} [/tex]
to get hypotenuse=8.96
this is height of ABC so use tan
[tex] tan(55.8)= 8.96 \x[/tex]
x=6.09
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
To find x, we first to to find the line between A&B.
Use the pythagoram theorem to do this A^2+B^2=C^2
4.9^2+7.5^2=C^2
80.26=C^2
square root each side
Side AtoB=8.958
We now know the side length of the opposite and adjacent for the angle C. So according to SohCahToa we need to use Tangent.
So Tan(55.8)=(8.958/x)
We you solve for x, the answer is 6.088
