Using a riding lawn mower, Shane, the landscaper of a large park, can mow the lawn in 8 hours. With a small mower, her assistant Matt needs 14 hours to mow the same lawn. If Shane and Matt work together mowing the lawn, how long will it take them to mow the lawn?

Hello,

We need first to know what's a gradient. The Gradient (also called Slope) of a straight line shows how steep a straight line is.

But how do we find the slope (or Gradient) from two points ?

For exemple, let's find the gradient of the two points PQ...

Method

1. We need the coordinates of the point P, and the point Q :

P = (6 ; -11)

Q = (k ; -9)

2. The slope is the change in height divided by the change in horizontal distance.

In other words we :

a) subtract the x values

b) subtract the y values

c) divide

Application for PQ

subtract x values : xQ - xP = k - 6

subtract the y values : yQ - yP = -9 - (-11) = -9 + 11 = 2

divide : (k-6) / 2

That is the gradient of PQ.. Now let us find the gradient of PR

Application for PR

subtract x values : xR - xP = 2k - 6

subtract the y values : yR - yP = -3 - (-11) = -3 + 11 = 8

divide : (2k-6)/8

That is the gradient of PR.

We know that by assumption, gradient of PQ = gradient of PR, what is the value of k ? Well, we simply need to solve an equation here :

gradient of PQ = gradient of PR

(k-6) / 2 = (2k - 6) / 8

k-6 = (4k - 12)/8 (we have multiplied by 2 on each sides of the equation)

8k - 48 = 4k - 12 (we have multiplied by 8 on each sides of the equation)

8k - 4k = - 12 + 48

4k = 36

k = 36 / 4 = 9

So the value of k in order for the two gradients to be equals needs to be equal to 9

Good luck

Explanation:

Use long division or your calculator to find that 1/40 = 0.025

Add on 3 to get 3 & 1/40 = 3 + 1/40 = 3 + 0.025 = 3.025 which is choice B

For some reason, your teacher has decided to add on a string of 0's onto this to form [tex]3.025\overline{0}[/tex] that horizontal line over the '0' means the 0's go on forever. So, [tex]3.025 = 3.025\overline{0} = 3.025000000...[/tex], but we can always chop off the trailing zeros to make life simpler. I'm not sure why your teacher has decided to use this fairly strange format.

The decimal value is equivalent to 3.025.

We have the following fraction -

3 [tex]\frac{1}{40\\}[/tex]

We can write the mixed fraction as -

3 [tex]\frac{1}{40\\}[/tex]

(40 x 3 + 1)/40

121/40

3.025

Therefore, the decimal value is equivalent to 3.025.

Answer:

s ≈ - 1.9 , s ≈ 11.9

Step-by-step explanation:

s² - 10s - 23 = 0 ( add 23 to both sides )

s² - 10s = 23

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the s- term )² to both sides

s² + 2(- 5)s + 25 = 23 + 25

(s - 5)² = 48 ( take square root of both sides )

s - 5 = ± [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex] ( add 5 to both sides )

s = 5 ± [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex]

Then

s = 5 - [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex] ≈ - 1.9 ( to the nearest tenth ) ← smaller solution

s = 5 + [tex]\sqrt{48}[/tex] ≈ 11.9 ( to the nearest tenth ) ← larger solution

Answer:

y ≥ -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can substitute 4 in for x in the inequality.

4 - 2y ≤ 5

Now, to solve for y, we start by subtracting 4 from both sides:

-2y ≤ 1

And divide by -2.  When dividing or multiplying by a negative number while solving an inequality, we also have to remember to switch around the inequality sign.  This gives us:

y ≥ [tex]\frac{1}{-2}[/tex] or y ≥ -0.5

Therefore, the possible values of y are -0.5 or greater.

Answer:

  6. see attached

  7. (a, b) = (-2, 3)

  8. equation has issues

Step-by-step explanation:

6. Matrix addition is defined for corresponding terms, so the usual associative and commutative properties of addition apply. That is, ...

  A₁₁ +B₁₁ = (A+B)₁₁ . . . . . and the same for other corresponding terms

The attachment shows the sums are equal. (It is convenient to let a spreadsheet do the tedious repetitive work.)

__

7. To find 'a' and 'b', we only need to consider the matrix elements that involve those variables.

element 11: 5 = b +2   ⇒   b = 3

element 21: a = 2 +2a   ⇒   a = -2   (add -a-2 to both sides to get this)

__

8.  There are issues with this equation. It is incomplete and inconsistent.

element 11: p = p+4   ⇒   no solution

element 21: r = 0 +(2r  s)   ⇔   missing math symbol; problem is incomplete

element 12: q = 6 + (p +q)   ⇒   p = -6; q = anything

element 22: s = 2s +2   ⇒   s = -2   (add -s-2 to both sides)

Additional comment

When a problem has issues of the kind that show up in question 8, I suggest that you have your teacher show you how to work the problem. If they're paying attention, they will discover the issues for themselves.

If they are able to work the problem, it will be because they filled in the missing information and resolved the inconsistencies. This will let you see the intended question.

Now we proceed to present the graphs of the polygon and its image with the help of a graphing tool. The original polygon is highlighted in red and the image is highlighted in blue.

DIlations are defined by the follwing operation:

[tex]P'(x,y) = O(x,y) + k\cdot [P(x,y)-O(x,y)][/tex] (1)

Where:

If we know that [tex]O(x,y) = (1,1)[/tex], [tex]k = 0.5[/tex], [tex]J(x,y) = (3,1)[/tex], [tex]K(x,y) = (5, -3)[/tex], [tex]L(x,y) = (5,5)[/tex] and [tex]M(x,y) = (3,7)[/tex], then the coordinates of the new polygon are:

[tex]J'(x,y) = (1,1) + 0.5\cdot [(3,1)-(1,1)][/tex]

[tex]J'(x,y) = (1,1)+0.5\cdot (2,0)[/tex]

[tex]J'(x,y) = (1,1) +(1,0)[/tex]

[tex]J'(x,y) = (2,1)[/tex]

[tex]K'(x,y) = (1,1) + 0.5\cdot [(5,-3)-(1,1)][/tex]

[tex]K'(x,y) = (1,1) +0.5\cdot (4,-4)[/tex]

[tex]K'(x,y) = (1,1) +(2,-2)[/tex]

[tex]K'(x,y) = (3,-1)[/tex]

[tex]L'(x,y) = (1,1) + 0.5\cdot [(5,5)-(1,1)][/tex]

[tex]L'(x,y) = (1,1) + 0.5\cdot (4,4)[/tex]

[tex]L'(x,y) = (1,1) + (2,2)[/tex]

[tex]L'(x,y) = (3,3)[/tex]

[tex]M'(x,y) = (1,1) + 0.5\cdot [(3,7)-(1,1)][/tex]

[tex]M'(x,y) = (1,1) +0.5\cdot (2,6)[/tex]

[tex]M'(x,y) = (1,1) +(1,3)[/tex]

[tex]M'(x,y) = (2,4)[/tex]

Now we proceed to present the graphs of the polygon and its image with the help of a graphing tool. The original polygon is highlighted in red and the image is highlighted in blue.

Firstly, we need to get the fraction that are girls

What we have to do is to subtract the three-fifths from the total fraction of 1

Mathematically,that would be :

1- 3/5=2/5

We have it that seven-eigths of the girls are left-handed. This mean one-eight of the girls are left handed

To get the fraction of the school that are left handed, we multiply the fraction of girls by the fraction of left-handed girls

We have this as:

1/8 x 2/5=1/20

We have it that 1/20 of the children are left-handed girls

Answer:

97 / 60 is what 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/5 comes

They also come to 1 37/60

Step-by-step explanation:

1 37/60 = 97/60           Does it?

Result = 2/3 + 3/4 + 1/5

The common denominator is 3 * 4 * 5 = 60, so that much is true.

2/3 = 40/60

3/4 = 45/60

1/5 = 12 / 60

When you add these three together, the numerator is 40 + 45 + 12 = 97

So the answer is correct.

m = (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1)

m = (1 - 1)/(-5 - 7)

m = 0/(-12)

m = 0
