Li uses 8.4 grams of sugar every day in her tea. Sue uses 12.6 grams of sugar every day in her coffee. If Li’s sugar canister contains 128 grams of sugar and Sue’s canister contains 191 grams, in how many days will Li and Sue have the same amount of sugar in their canisters?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15 days

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Li uses = 8.4 grams of sugar every day in her tea.

Li’s sugar canister contains = 128 grams of sugar

Let x be the number of days at which Li uses sugar in her tea

The Equation for Li's sugar usuage =

y = 128 - 8.4x ......... Equation 1

Where y , the quantity of sugar left.

b) Sue uses = 12.6 grams of sugar every day in her coffee.

Sue’s canister contains = 191 grams

Let x be the number of days at which Sue uses sugar in her tea

The Equation for Sue's sugar usuage =

y = 191 - 12.6x .........Equation 2

Where y , the quantity of sugar left.

We are asked in the question, how many days will Li and Sue have the same amount of sugar in their canisters

We would equate both equations to each other.

Equation 1 = Equation 2

y = 128 - 8.4x = y = 191 - 12.6x

128 - 8.4x = 191 - 12.6x

-8.4x + 12.6x = 191 - 128

4.2x = 63

x = 63/4.2

x = 15

15 days

Therefore Li and Sue have the same amount of sugar in their canisters after 15 days.

To confirm

Equation 1 = Equation 2

y = 128 - 8.4x = y = 196 - 12.6 × 15

y = 128 - 8.4 × 15 = y = 196 - 12.6 × 15

y = 128 - 126 = y = 196 - 189

y = 2 = y = 2

Mrs. Taylor is making new football uniforms for Fridays nights homecoming game. The trim fro the sleeves of one uniform requires 26 inches of fabric. Mrs Taylor needs to make 63 uniforms total. How many yards of fabric should she buy?

Answers

Answer:

Mrs Taylor should buy 45.5 yards of fabric ( 45.5364 actually but rounded to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the total yards of fabric that Mrs Taylor should buy.

From the question, we are made to know that one uniform requires 26 inch of fabrics and she wants to make a total of 63 uniforms

The total inches of fabric needed is thus; 26 * 63 = 1,638 inches of Fabrics

But we want our answer in yards.

Mathematically;

1 inch = 0.0278 yard

1638 inches = x yard

x = 1638 * 0.0278 = 45.5364 yards which is approximately 45.5yards

  30500 = 3.05·10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

Your calculator can do this for you. You may need to set the display to scientific notation, if that's the form of the answer you want.

__

This can be computed by converting both numbers to standard form:

  (5·10^2) +(3·10^4)

  = 500 +30000 = 30500 = 3.05·10^4

__

Addition of numbers in scientific notation in general requires that they have the same power of 10. It may be convenient to convert both numbers to the highest power of 10.

  5·10^2 + 3·10^4

  = 0.05·10^4 +3·10^4 . . . . now both have multipliers of 10^4

  = (0.05 +3)·10^4

  = 3.05·10^4

15. Apply Mathematics (1)(A) Suppose you have a box with a 4 X 4-in.
square base and variable height h. The surface area of this box is a
function of its height. Write a function to represent the surface area.
Evaluate the function for h=6.5 in.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for calculating the surface area of the box S = 2(LW+LH+WH) where

L is the length of the box

W is the width of the box

H is the height of the box

If the box is square based with dimension 4 * 4in, then L = W = 4in. substituting this values given into the formula we will have;

S = 2(4(4)+4H + 4H)

S = 2(16+8H)

S = 32+16H

Hence, The function that represents the surface area of this box as a

function of its height is S = 32+16H where H is the height of the box

Given H = 6.5in, to evaluate the function, we will substitute h = 6.5in into the modeled equation;

S = 32+16H

S = 32+16(6.5)

S = 32+106

S = 138in²

Hence the total surface area of the box is 138in²

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

[tex](-6n^{-3})^2[/tex]

We can use the power of a product property, where:

[tex](ab)^n=a^n\cdot b^n[/tex]

So:

[tex]=(-6)^2\cdot(n^{-3})^2[/tex]

For the left, -6 squared is the same as -6 times -6. This equals positive 36.

For the right, we can use the power of a power property. The property says that:

[tex](a^n)^k=a^{nk}[/tex]

So:

[tex](n^{-3})^2=n^{(-3)(2)}\\=n^{-6}[/tex]

So, all together, we have:

[tex]=(-6)^2\cdot(n^{-3})^2\\=36n^{-6}[/tex]

6)

We have the expression:

[tex]-\frac{3x^0}{x^4}[/tex]

First, note that anything to the zeroth power (except for 0) is 1, thus, x^0 is also 1. Simplify:

[tex]=-\frac{3}{x^4}[/tex]

And that's the simplest we can do :)

Notes for 6)

We can put the x^4 to the numerator. Recall that when you put an exponent to opposite side, you put a negative. In other words:

[tex]x^n=\frac{1}{x^{-n}}[/tex]

And vice versa:

[tex]\frac{1}{x^{-n}}=x^n[/tex]

So, we can write the above as:

[tex]=-\frac{3}{x^4}\\=-\frac{3}{x^{-(-4)}}\\=-3x^{-4}[/tex]

However, traditionally, we want only positive exponents, so this wouldn't be correct.

an object is dropped from the top of a cliff 675 meters high. its height above the ground t seconds after it is dropped is 675-4.9t^2. determine its speed 7 seconds after it is dropped, the speed if the object 7 seconds after it's dropped in m/sec

Answers

Answer:

V= 68.6 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

height above the ground t seconds after it is dropped is 675-4.9t^2

For seven seconds

Height above ground= 675-4.9(7)²

height above ground= 675-240.1

Height above ground= 434.9 m

But it's dropped from a cliff and we need to find the distance traveled from the too of the cliff

Distance= 675-434.9.

Distance= 240.1

To determine it's speed

V²= U² +2gs

V= velocity we are looking for

U= initial velocity= 0

G= acceleration due to gravity= 9.8 m/s²

s= distance covered

V²= U² +2gs

V²= 0+2(9.8)(240.1)

V²= 4705.96

V= 68.6 m/s
