Step-by-step explanation:
A theater is presenting a program on drinking and driving for students and their parents or other responsible adults. The proceeds will be donated to a local alcohol information center. Admission is $6.00 for adults and $3.00 for students. However, this situation has two constraints: The theater can hold no more than 240 people and for every two adults, there must be at least one student. How many adults and students should attend to raise the maximum amount of money?
Answer:
160 adults and 80 students
Step-by-step explanation:
With the information from the exercise we have the following system of equations:
Let x = number of students; y = number of adults
I want to maximize the following:
z = 3 * x + 6 * y
But with the following constraints
x + y = 240
y / 2 <= x
As the value is higher for adults, it is best to sell as much as possible for adults.
So let's solve the system of equations like this:
y / 2 + y = 240
3/2 * y = 240
y = 240 * 2/3
y = 160
Which means that the maximum profit is obtained when there are 160 adults and 80 students, so it is true that added to 240 and or every two adults, there must be at least one student.
81^x^2=27^x solve for x
Step-by-step explanation:
81^x² = 27^x
(3^4)^x² = (3^3)^x
3^(4x²) = 3^(3x)
4x² = 3x
4x² − 3x = 0
x (4x − 3) = 0
x = 0 or ¾

The Chandlers are moving across the country. Mr. Chandler leaves 2.5 hours before Mrs. Chandler. If he averages 75 mph and she averages 85 mph, how many hours
will it take Mrs. Chandler to catch up to Mr. Chandler?
Answer:
It will take Mrs Chandler 18 hours 45 minutes or 18.75 hours to catch up Mr Chandler
Step-by-step explanation:
What we want to know here is that at how many hours will they have traveled same distance.
Let the total time taken by Mrs Chandler to catch up be x hours
Since Mr Chandler left 2.5 hours earlier , then the total time taken by him would be x + 2.5 hours
Now, we know that distance = speed * time
Since it’s same distance covered;
For Mr Chandler, his distance is calculated as 75(x + 2.5)
For Mrs Chandler, her distance is calculated as 85x
We equate both since they are equal;
75(x + 2.5) = 85x
75x + 187.5 = 85x
85x -75x = 187.5
10x = 187.5
x = 18.75 hours or 18 hours 45 minutes
This is a cross-sectional view of candy bar ABC. A candy company wants to create a cylindrical container for candy bar ABC so that it is circumscribed about the candy bar. If = 4 cm, what is the smallest diameter of wrapper that will fit the candy bar?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
No figure supplied, so lots of assumptions needed.
Assume side length of triangle is 4 cm.
( If = 4 cm means ??)
Assume ABC is equiangular, all three angles are 60 degrees.
(This is a cross-sectional view, but don't see any)
Side length = 4
altitude of triangle = 4 sin(60) = 2sqrt(3)
radius of circumscribed circle of equilateral triangle
R = (2/3) altitude
= (2/3)*2sqrt(3)
= (4/3)sqrt(3)
Diameter
D = 2R
= (8/3) sqrt(3)
Answer: 8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure in the image attached below shows that there are two specific angles that are congruent to each other, angles AD and CD.
We are given the length of one of these angles:
AD= 4 cm so we must multiply 4 by 2, since there are TWO angles measuring 4 cm.
4 cm x 2 angles (AD and CD) =8 cm.

Find the 12th term of the following geometric sequence.
10, 30, 90, 270,
Answer:
The 12th term is 1771470Step-by-step explanation:
Since the above sequence is a geometric sequence
An nth term of a geometric sequence is given by
[tex]A(n) = a(r)^{n - 1} [/tex]
where a is the first term
r is the common ratio
n is the number of terms
From the question
a = 10
To find the common ratio divide the previous term by the next term
That's
r = 30/10 = 3 or 90/30 = 3 or 270/90 = 3
Since we are finding the 12th term
n = 12
So the 12th term is
[tex]A(12) = 10( {3})^{12 - 1} [/tex]
[tex]A(12) = 10 ({3})^{11} [/tex]
A(12) = 1771470Hope this helps you
The floor of a shed given on the right has an area of 44 square feet . The floor is in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 3 less than twice the width. Find the length and width of the floor of the shed.
Answer:
The length and width of the floor of the shed are 8 feet and 5.5 feet, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the shape of the shed is a rectangle, the expression for the area is:
[tex]A = w \cdot l[/tex]
Where [tex]w[/tex] and [tex]l[/tex] are the width and length of the shed, measured in feet. In addition, the statement shows that [tex]l = 2\cdot w - 3\,ft[/tex]. Then, the equation of area is expanded by replacing length:
[tex]A = w\cdot (2\cdot w - 3)[/tex]
[tex]A = 2\cdot w^{2} - 3\cdot w[/tex]
If [tex]A = 44\,ft^{2}[/tex], then, a second-order polynomial is formed:
[tex]2\cdot w^{2}-3\cdot w - 44 = 0[/tex]
The roots of this equation are found via General Equation for Second-Order Polynomials:
[tex]w_{1} = \frac{11}{2}\,ft[/tex] and [tex]w_{2} = -4\,ft[/tex]
Only the first roots is a physically reasonable solution. Then, the length of the shed is:
[tex]l = 2\cdot \left(\frac{11}{2}\,ft \right)-3\,ft[/tex]
[tex]l = 8\,ft[/tex]
The length and width of the floor of the shed are 8 feet and 5.5 feet, respectively.
The value of y varies inversely as the square of x, and y = 16, when I = 3.
Find the value of x when y = 1.
Answer:
x = 12Step-by-step explanation:
The statement
The value of y varies inversely as the square of x is written as
[tex]y = \frac{k}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]
where k is the constant of proportionality
To find the value of x when y = 1 first find the formula for the variation
y = 16 x = 3
k = yx²
k = 16(3)²
k = 16 × 9
k = 144
The formula for the variation is
[tex]y = \frac{144}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]
when y = 1
We have
[tex]1 = \frac{144}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]
Cross multiply
x² = 144
Find the square root of both sides
We have the final answer as
x = 12Hope this helps you
Write the first 4 terms of the sequence defined by the given rule f(n)=n2 -1
Answer:
0, 3, 8, 15Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute n = 1, n = 2, n = 3 and n = 4 to the equation f(n) = n² - 1:
f(1) = 1² - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0
f(2) = 2² - 1 = 4 - 1 = 3
f(3) = 3² - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8
f(4) = 4² - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
A student is using the elimination method to solve the system of equations below. What is the best first
step?
4x - 5y = 2
2x + y = -3
Answer:
The best first step would be to multiply the second equation by -2
Step-by-step explanation:
The best first step would be to multiply the second equation by -2
then you would have the following
[tex]\ \ \ \ \ \ 4x - 5y = 2 \\-2*(2x)+ (-2)*y = (-2)*3[/tex]
and when you multiply it is easy to eliminate because you will get
[tex]4x - 5y = 2 \\-4x -2y = 6[/tex]
and if you sum the equations you get
-7y = 8
so that is a single variable equation which is easier to solve.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A congressman wants to measure the level of support in his district for campaign finance reform and determine if there is a gender gap among voters with respect to this issue. One aid suggests that they find separate confidence intervals for the percent of men and the percent of women who favor reform and then see if the intervals overlap. Another aid suggests that they find a confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of men and women who favor reform. The question is: Is there a gender gap
Answer:
Campaign Finance Reform
Gender Gap among Voters in the District
There is a gender gap among women and men who favor campaign finance reform.
Step-by-step explanation:
In issues such as the above, a gender gap always exist between women and men who think that there is the need to reform the campaign finance. Women ordinarily favor a reduction in the campaign finance. On the other hand, men do not mind so much about the candidate expenditure in campaigns. Reducing the huge campaign finance will ensure that political campaigns and aspiration to political offices are not left to money bags. Many women would like to get involved, but they are limited by funding. So, anytime the issue of reforming the whole electoral system, especially with respect to campaigns, women favor the reforms more than men. The gap is always there. The main issue is how would this gap be measured?
On moving day, Guyton needs to rent a truck. The length of the cargo space is , and the height is less than the width. The brochure indicates that the truck can hold . What are the dimensions of the cargo space
On moving day, Guyton needs to rent a truck. The length of the cargo space is 10 ft , and the height is 1 ft less than the width. The brochure indicates that the truck can hold 420 ft3 . What are the dimensions of the cargo space? Assume that the cargo space is rectangular shape.
Answer:
The dimensions; width w is 7 ft and height is 6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
L = 10 ft the length of the cargo space
w = the width of the cargo space
h = the height of the cargo space the height is 1 ft less than the width
h = w - 1
The truck can hold 420 ft^3 - this means the volume of the space V = 420 ft^3
But V = L*w*h
Substitute h = w - 1 into the Volume equation
Therefore,
10*w*(w - 1) = 420
10w^2 - 10w - 420 = 0
By Using quadratic equation formula to solve and considering positive answer,
w = {-b +- √(b^2 - 4ac)}/2a
Where;
a = 10, b = -10 and c = -420
w = {-(-10) +- √(-10^2 - 4(10)(-420)}/2(10)
w = {-(-10) +- 130}/20
w = (10 + 130)/20 = 140/20 = 7
Or
w = (10 -130)/20 = -120/20 = -6
Here,
I take positive answers and the width is 7 ft
Also, from h = w - 1
height = 7 - 1 = 6 ft
As per the question on a moving day, the Guyton is renting a truck and the length of his cargo the height of which is less than the width. The brochure indicates the trick that he can hold.
How much width and height does Guyton need in cargo space?The dimension of the cargo will be based on the amount of capacity of the cargo and the amount of cargo that needs to be moved. On the day of the move, he rent a truck. The L of all cargo space is given as 10 feet, and that of height is 1 foot which is less than the width. This brochure tells us that the truck can hold 420 feet.

The n th term of an AP is
[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given
6(a₁ + 5d) = 13(a₁ + 12d) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
6a₁ + 30d = 13a₁ + 156d ( subtract 13a₁ from both sides )
- 7a₁ + 30d = 156d ( subtract 30d from both sides )
- 7a₁ = 126d ( divide both sides by - 7 )
a₁ = - 18d
Now
a₁₉ = a₁ + 18d = - 18d + 18d = 0 ← as required
The ratio of oranges in a fruit salad to people it will serve is 9/40, or 9:40. If Lisa wants to serve 800 people, how many oranges will Lisa use?
The correct answer is 180 oranges
Explanation:
In mathematics, a ratio expresses two or more numbers that are related. In the case fo the ration 9: 40 this expresses 9 oranges are used to serve fruit salad for 40 people. Now, if you need to determine what is the number of oranges not for 40 people but for 800 people you can use cross multiplication. This process is explained below:
[tex]\frac{9}{40} = \frac{x}{800}[/tex] - 1. Multiply 9 x 800 and 40 x x (cross multiplication)
[tex]7200 = 40x[/tex] - 2. Solve the equation by diving 7200 into 40
[tex]\frac{7200}{40} = x[/tex]
[tex]x = 180[/tex] - 3. 180 represents the number of oranges to serve 800 people, which can be expressed as 180: 800
Find the most general antiderivative of the function. (Check your answer by differentiation. Use C for the constant of the antiderivative.) f(x) = x2 − 7x + 5
Answer:
F(x) = [tex]\frac{x^3}{3} - \frac{7x^2}{2} + 5x + c[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The antiderivative of a function (also called the integration of a function) is the reverse of the differentiation of that function. Given a function f(x), its integration, F(x), can be calculated as follows;
F(x) = [tex]\int\limits{f(x)} \, dx[/tex]
From the question, f(x) = x² - 7x + 5
Therefore,
F(x) = [tex]\int\limits {(x^2 - 7x + 5)} \, dx[/tex]
F(x) = [tex]\frac{x^3}{3} - \frac{7x^2}{2} + 5x + c[/tex]
Where c is the constant of the integration (antiderivative).
PS: The constant of integration is used for indefinite integrals and allows to express integration of a function in its most general form.
