when would you write an x in an equation?)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\Large \boxed{\mathrm{When \ a \ number \ is \ not \ known}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, a sum of a number and 6 is 12.

The number is unknown.

Let the number be x.

x + 6 = 12

We can solve for x (unknown number). Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.

x = 6

Cody is a lifeguard and spots a drowning child 40 meters along the shore and 70 meters from the shore to the child. Cody runs along the shore for a while and then jumps into the water and swims from there directly to the child. Cody can run at a rate of 4 meters per second and swim at a rate of 1.1 meters per second. How far along the shore should Cody run before jumping into the water in order to save the child? Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Cody should run approximately 19.978 meters along the shore before jumping into the water in order to save the child.Thus,

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the diagram below.

In this case we need to minimize the time it takes Cody to save the child.

Total time to save the child (T) = Time taken along the shore (A) + Time taken from the shore (B)

The formula to compute time is:

[tex]time=\frac{distance}{speed}[/tex]

Compute the time taken along the shore as follows:

[tex]A=\frac{x}{4}[/tex]

Compute the time taken from the shore as follows:

[tex]B=\frac{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}{1.1}[/tex]

Then the total time taken to save the child is:

[tex]T=\frac{x}{4}+\frac{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}{1.1}[/tex]

Differentiate T with respect to x as follows:

[tex]\frac{dT}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}[\frac{x}{4}]+\frac{d}{dx}[\frac{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}{1.1}][/tex]

    [tex]=\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{1.1}\cdot \frac{(40-x)}{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}[/tex]

Equate the derivative to 0 to compute the value of x as follows:

                              [tex]\frac{dT}{dx}=0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{1.1}\cdot \frac{(40-x)}{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}=0\\\\\frac{1}{1.1}\cdot \frac{(40-x)}{\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}}=\frac{1}{4}\\\\4\cdot (40-x)=1.1\cdot [\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}]\\\\\{4\cdot (40-x)\}^{2}=\{1.1\cdot [\sqrt{70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}]\}^{2}\\\\16\cdot (40-x)^{2}=1.21\cdot [70^{2}+(40-x)^{2}}]\\\\16\cdot (40-x)^{2}-1.21\cdot (40-x)^{2}=5929\\\\14.79\cdot (40-x)^{2}=5929\\\\(40-x)^{2}=400.88\\\\40-x\approx 20.022\\\\x\approx 40-20.022\\\\x\approx 19.978[/tex]

Thus, Cody should run approximately 19.978 meters along the shore before jumping into the water in order to save the child.

A geometric series has a common ratio of (-2) and the first term is 3.
Show that the sum of the first eight positive terms of the series is 65 535.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum to n terms of a geometric series is

[tex]S_{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{a_{1}(r^{n}-1) }{r-1}[/tex]

where a₁ is the first term and r the common ratio

Given a₁ = 3 and r = - 2 , then

3 × - 2 = - 6

- 6 × -2 = 12

12 × - 2 = - 24

- 24 × - 2 = 48

48 × - 2 = - 96

- 96 × - 2 = 192

The positive terms are in a geometric progression

3, 12, 48, 192, ....

with a₁ = 3 and r = 12 ÷ 3 = 48 ÷ 12 = 4 , then

S₈ = [tex]\frac{3(4^{8}-1) }{4-1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3(65536-1)}{3}[/tex] = 65536 - 1 = 65535

Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens. She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes and told her 17 students to divide the remaining pens equally among themselves. Which expression shows the number of pens each student got?

Answers

Answer:

x = (4y-6)/17

where x is the  number of pens each student got.

Step-by-step explanation:

No. of boxes = 4

no. of pen in 1 box = y

total no, of pens in 4 box =  No. of boxes *no. of pen in 1 box = 4y

No. of pen took away by Jaden's teacher = 6

no. of pens left = 4y - 6

This, 4y - 6 pen has to be divided among 17 students.

Let  each student get x pen

thus, total no. of pen got by 17 student  = 17x

This, 17x should be equal to total no. of pens available which is 4y-6

17x = 4y-6

=> x = (4y-6)/17

Thus, expression to represent  number of pens each student got

is x = (4y-6)/17

Answer:

4y-6/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Jaden’s teacher had 4 boxes of pens that each contained y pens.

Number of boxes of pen = 4

Number of pens per box = y

Total number of pens = 4 x y = 4y

She took 6 pens out of one of the boxes told her 17 students to divide the remaining pens equally among themselves.

Total number of pens left = 4y - 6

Number of students = 17

Find the area. Round to the nearest tenth.
6 ft
3 ft
12.16 ft
9.16 ft

Answers

Answer:

100.5 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the rectangle

A = l*w

A = 12.16 * 6

A =72.96 ft^2

Then find the area of the triangle

A = 1/2 bh

The base is 12 ft - 6ft = 6ft

The height is 9.16 ft

A = 1/2 ( 9.16) * 6

A = 27.48 ft^2

Add them together

27.48+72.96

100.44 ft^2

Round to the nearest tenth

100.5 ft^2

Answer:

[tex]\huge \boxed{\mathrm{100.4 \ ft^2 }}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the shape, we can add the area of the rectangle with the area of the triangle.

Area of rectangle :

base × height

6 ft × 12.16 ft

72.96 ft²

Area of triangle :

base × height × 1/2

(12 ft - 6 ft) × 9.16 ft × 1/2

6ft × 9.16 ft × 1/2

27.48 ft²

Adding the areas.

72.96 ft² + 27.48 ft²

100.44 ft²

≈ 100.4 ft² (rounded to nearest tenth)

The property shown in the given matrix addition is associative property.

Let's define associative property first,

The Associative Property of Addition for Matrices states :

Let A , B and C be m×n matrices .

Then, (A+B)+C=A+(B+C) .

Associative Law of Addition of Matrix:

Matrix addition is associative. This says that, if A, B and C are Three matrices of the same order such that the matrices B + C, A + (B + C), A + B, (A + B) + C are defined then A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C.

Since P and Q are of the same order and pij = qij then, P = Q.

Here, from the given information,

we get, A , B and C be 4×1 matrices,

and,  (A+B)+C=A+(B+C)

Answers

Answer:

0.32 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of weight of -copper, zinc, manganese, and nickel = 177:12:7:4

let the

weight of copper = 177x

weight of zinc = 12x

weight of manganese = 7x

weight of nickel = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

volume=7.3×1760×3×30×1760×3×1/12=73×176×90×440=508780800 ft³

Answer:

508,780,800 ft³ of rain

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to do the computation, we need to express all the given lengths in feet.

recall that 1 mile = 5280 feet

hence,

width = 7.3 miles = 7.3 x 5280 = 38,544 feet

length = 30 miles = 30 x 5280 = 158,400 feet

also recall that 1 inch = 1/12 feet

hence,

depth of rainfall = 1 inch = 1/12 feet

Volume of rain = width of beach x length of beach x depth of rainfall

= 38,544 x 158,400 x (1/12)

= 508,780,800 ft³ of rain

The way the quadratic equation was given, we can't have a factored form in the format: [tex](ax-b)(cx+d)[/tex]

First, divide both sides by 2

[tex]3x^2-4x-4=0[/tex]

Now, it is about thinking. From the equation, we will get something in the format:  [tex](ax-b)(cx+d)[/tex]

Let's expand this: [tex](ax-b)(cx+d) = acx^2+adx-bcx-bd[/tex]

From here, we can give some values for those variables, based on the quadratic equation [tex]3x^2-4x-4=0[/tex]:

[tex](3x-b)(x+d) = 3\cdot 1\cdot x^2+3dx-b\cdot 1 \cdot x-bd= \boxed{3x^2+3dx-bx-bd}[/tex]

Once we want the middle term to be -4 and bd to be 4, we can easily evaluate the other variables.

[tex](3x-2)(x+2) = 3\cdot 1\cdot x^2+3(2)x-(2)\cdot 1 \cdot x-(2)(2)= \boxed{3x^2+6x-4x-4}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex](3x-2)(x+2)=3x^2-4x-4[/tex]

But we are not ready yet!

This is the factored form of [tex]3x^2-4x-4=0[/tex], to get the factored form of the problem equation, just multiply the factored form we got by 2.
