Find the surface area of the triangular prism (above) using its net (below).
Answers
Answer:
96 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of the prism can be calculated using its net.
The net consists of 3 rectangles and 2 triangles.
The surface area = area of the 3 rectangles + area of the 2 triangles
Area of 3 rectangles:
Area of 2 rectangles having the same dimension = 2(L*B) = 2(7*3) = 2(21) = 42 squared units
Area of the middle triangle = L*B = 7*6 = 42 square units.
Area of the 3 triangles = 42 + 42 = 84 square units.
Area of the 2 triangles:
Area = 2(½*b*h) = 2(½*6*2) = 6*2
Area of the 2 triangles = 12 square units
Surface area of the triangular prism = 84 + 12 = 96 square units.

Find (f•g)(x) for the given functions: f(x) = 5/x and g(x) = 3 + x/5.
Answers
Explanation:
F(x) = 5/x and g(x) = 3 + x/5
Then (f•g)(x) = 5/x • 3 + x/5
(f•g)(x) = 5/x • 15/5 + x/5
(f•g)(x) = 5/x • (15 + x)/5
(f•g)(x) = 5(15 + x)/5x
(f•g)(x) = (15 + x)/x

Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of supply to demand will be 1 at the equilibrium price:
S(p)/D(p) = 1 = 140e^(0.005p)/(448e^(-0.003p))
448/140 = e^(0.005p -(-0.003p)) = e^(0.008p)
ln(448/140) = 0.008p . . . . . . . . . taking the natural log
p = ln(448/140)/0.008 ≈ 145.39
The equilibrium price is about $145.39.

Ava wants to figure out the average speed she is driving. She starts checking her car’s clock at mile marker 0. It takes her 4 minutes to reach mile marker 3. When she reaches mile marker 6, she notes that 8 minutes total have passed since mile marker 0. What is the average speed of the car in miles per minute? What is an equation of the line that represents n, the number of mile marker passed, as a function of t, time in minutes? PLEASE HELP
Answers
Answer:
Below
Step-by-step explanation:
The average speed is given by the following formula:
● V = d/t
● d is the distance covered
● t is the time spent to cover the distance d
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
Ava takes 8 minutes to go from mile marker 0 to mile marker6.
● the distance Ava traveled is 6 miles
● the time Ava spent to reach mile marker 6 is 8 minutes
So the average speed of Ava is:
● V = 6/ 8 = 3/4 = 0.75 mile per min
●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●
Let's The equation of the line that links the number of milemarkers (n) and the time (t).
Ava went from mile marker 0 to mile marker 6.
At t=0 Ava just started travelling from mile marker 0 to 1.
Afrer 8 minutes,she was at mile marker 6.
So 8 min => 6 mile markers (igonring mile marker 0 since the distance there was 0 mile)
6/8= 0.75
Then n/t = 0.75
● n = 0.75 * t
Let's check
● n= 0.75*4 = 3
That's true since after 4 minutes Ava was at mile marker 3.
A rectangular piece of sheet metal has an area of 1200 in2. It is going to be bent into a cylinder with volume 600 in3. What are the dimensions of rectangular piece of sheet metal
Answers
Answer:
x=6.28 inches
y=191.08 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the dimensions of the rectangle be x and y
Area of the rectangular sheet
x*y=1200 in^2}
x = circumference of the cylinder
This means x=2πr
Volume of a cylinder=πr^2h
h=y
Volume of the cylind=πr^2(y)=600 in^3
From x=2πr
r=x/2π
Substitute r=x/2π into Volume=πr^2(y)=600 in^3
We have,
Volume of the cylinder=πr^2(y)=600 in^3
π*(x/2π)^2(y)=600
(x^2/4π)y=600
Recall, x*y=1200
y=1200/x
Substitute y=1200/x into (x^2/4π)y=600
(x^2/4π)y=600
(x^2/4π)(1200/x)=600
1200x/4π=600
Multiply both sides by 4π
(x^2/4π)(1200/x)(4π)=600*4π
1200x=2400π
Divide both sides by 1200
1200x/1200 = 2400π/1200
x=2π
Substitute x=2π into y=1200/x
We have,
y=1200/2π
y=600/π
The dimensions are x=2π and y=600/π
Let π=3.14
x=2π
=2(3.14)
=6.28 inches
y=600/π
=600/3.14
=191.08 inches

Answer:
x = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
question is
2x + 3 + 7x = -24
First you combine the like terms
2x and 7x you can add them so it will be 9x
so it will then it will be like this:
9x + 3 = -24
now you take the 3 and send it to the other side, and right now the 3 is positive so when it goes to the other side it will turn into -3
so
9x = -24 -3
again now you combine the like terms
-24 -3 = - 27
now you have
9x = -27
now just divide each side by 9
x = -27/9
x = -3

solve the inequality -2/11 j _< 8
Answers
Answer:
j ≥ -44
Step-by-step explanation:
-2/11 j ≤ 8
Multiply each side by -11/2 to isolate j. Flip the inequality since we are multiplying by a negative
-11/2 * -11/2 j ≥ 8 * -11/2
j ≥ -44
Answer:
[tex]j\geq -44[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The inequality given is:
[tex]\frac{-2}{11}j\leq 8[/tex]
To solve the inequality, we must get the variable j by itself.
j is being multiplied by -2/11. To reverse this, we must multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction.
Flip the numerator (top number) and denominator (bottom number) to find the reciprocal.
[tex]\frac{-2}{11} --> \frac{-11}{2}[/tex]
Multiply both sides of the equation by -11/2.
[tex]\frac{-11}{2} *\frac{-2}{11} j \leq 8*\frac{-11}{2}[/tex]
[tex]j\leq 8*\frac{-11}{2}[/tex]
Since we multiplied by a negative number, we must flip the inequality sign.
[tex]j\geq 8*\frac{-11}{2}[/tex]
Multiply 8 and -11/2
[tex]j\geq 8*-5.5[/tex]
[tex]j\geq -44[/tex]
The solution to the inequality is: [tex]j\geq -44[/tex]

Answers
Answer:
present age of son = 10 present age of father = 40Step-by-step explanation:
Let, present age of son be 'x'
present age of father be 'y'
y = 4x→ equation ( i )
After five years,
Son's age = x + 5
father's age = y + 5
According to Question,
[tex]y + 5 = 3(x + 5)[/tex]
Put the value of y from equation ( i )
[tex]4x + 5 = 3(x + 5)[/tex]
Distribute 3 through the parentheses
[tex]4x + 5 = 3x + 15[/tex]
Move variable to L.H.S and change it's sign
Similarly, Move constant to R.H.S. and change its sign
[tex]4x - 3x = 15 - 5[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x = 15 - 5[/tex]
Calculate the difference
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Now, put the value of X in equation ( i ) in order to find the present age of father
[tex]y = 4x[/tex]
plug the value of X
[tex] = 4 \times 10[/tex]
Calculate the product
[tex] = 40[/tex]
Therefore,
Present age of son = 10
present age of father = 40

I)
Let [tex]J[/tex] represent John's age and [tex]B[/tex] represent Brian's age.
John is three years older than Brian. In other words:
[tex]J=B+3[/tex]
The product of their ages is 54. Or:

At a Psychology final exam, the scores are normally distributed with a mean 73 points and a standard deviation of 10.6 points. The lower 5% of the class will not get a passing grade. Find the score that separates the lower 5% of the class from the rest of the class
Answers
Answer:
55.563
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Mean(m) point = 73
Standard deviation( sd) = 10.6
Lower 5% will not get a passing grade (those below the 5% percentile)
For a normal distribution:
The z-score is given by:
z = (X - mean) / standard deviation
5% of the class = 5/100 = 0.05
From the z - table : 0.05 falls into - 1.645 which is equal to the z - score
Substituting this value into the z-score formula to obtain the score(x) which seperates the lower 5%(0.05) from the rest of the class
z = (x - m) / sd
-1.645 = (x - 73) / 10.6
-1 645 * 10.6 = x - 73
-17.437 = x - 73
-17.437 + 73 = x
55.563 = x
Therefore, the score which seperetes the lower 5% from the rest of the class is 55.563

[tex]= \frac{120b}{36 a^2 b^2} \\\\[/tex]
Divide both the numerator and the denominator by 12b:
[tex]= \frac{120b /12b}{36 a^2 b^2/12b}[/tex]
The expression finally becomes:
[tex]= \frac{10}{3 a^2 b}[/tex]

A sample of size 60 from one population of weights had a sample average of 10.4 lb. and a sample standard deviation of 2.7 lb. An independent sample of size 100 from another population of weights had a sample average of 9.7 lb. with a sample standard deviation of 1.9 lb. Find a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population means.
Answers
Answer:
z= 0.278
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
n1= 60 ; n2 = 100
mean 1= x1`= 10.4; mean 2= x2`= 9.7
standard deviation 1= s1= 2.7 pounds ; standard deviation 2= s2 = 1.9 lb
We formulate our null and alternate hypothesis as
H0 = x`1- x`2 = 0 and H1 = x`1- x`2 ≠ 0 ( two sided)
We set level of significance α= 0.05
the test statistic to be used under H0 is
z = x1`- x2`/ √ s₁²/n₁ + s₂²/n₂
the critical region is z > ± 1.96
Computations
z= 10.4- 9.7/ √(2.7)²/60+( 1.9)²/ 100
z= 10.4- 9.7/ √ 7.29/60 + 3.61/100
z= 0.7/√ 0.1215+ 0.0361
z=0.7 /√0.1576
z= 0.7 (0.396988)
z= 0.2778= 0.278
Since the calculated value of z does not fall in the critical region so we accept the null hypothesis H0 = x`1- x`2 = 0 at 5 % significance level. In other words we conclude that the difference between mean scores is insignificant or merely due to chance.
