One number is seven less than a second number. Three times the first is three more than four times the second .Find the numbers

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -28 and y = -21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let two numbers be x and y.

One number is seven less than a second number.

x = y-7

x-y = -7 ...(1)

Three times the first is three more than four times the second.

3x = 4y or

3x-4y =0 ...(2)

Multiplying equation (1) by 3. So,

3x-3y = -21 ...(3)

Subtracting equation (2) from (3).

3x-3y-(3x-4y) = -21

-3y+4y = -21

y = -21

Put the value of y in equation (1).

x-(-21)= -7

x+21=-7

x = -21-7

x = -28

So, the value of x and y are -28 and -21 respectively.

Identify the following for the exponential function y = 5(1/4)x.

a. Growth or decay?

b. Initial value

c. Growth/decay factor

d. Growth/decay rate (as a percentage)

Answers

Answer:

A)

Decay

B)

Initial value is 5.

C)

The decay factor is 0.75.

D)

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is given by:

[tex]f(x)=a(r)^x[/tex]

Where a is the initial value and r is the rate.

We have the function:

[tex]y=5(1/4)^x[/tex]

So, a = 5 and r = 1/4.

A)

Remember the guidelines:

It is exponential growth if r > 1. And it is exponential decay if r < 1. (And r must be positive.)

Our rate is 1/4 or 0.25.

It is less than 1, so our function is exponential decay.

B)

The initial value is the value in front of our rate.

So, our initial value in this case is 5.

C)

The decay factor will be 1 - r, where r is our rate.

Since our rate is 0.25, our decay factor is 1 - 0.25 = 0.75.

So, we are decaying by a factor of 0.75.

D)

To convert a decimal to a percent, we move the decimal dot two places to the rght and add a percent sign.

So, 0.75 will be 75.0 % or smply 75%.

It is a 75% decay.

What is coordinate geometry?

Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the coordinate points.  It provides a link between geometry and algebra through line graphs and curves.

For the given situation,

The points are (x1, y1) be (–4, –3) and (x2, y2) be (2, 1)

The formula for the distance between points,

[tex]d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2}+(y2-y1)^{2} }[/tex]

On substituting the above points,

⇒ [tex]d=\sqrt{(2-(-4))^{2}+(1-(-3))^{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]d=\sqrt{6^{2}+4^{2} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]d=\sqrt{52}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]d=7.211[/tex] ≈ [tex]7.2[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the distance between the points on the coordinate plane is 7.2 units.

b) An event with probability 1 is said to be

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer and explanation:

a) This value is equal to one because it is just the number divided by itself.

b) Since any number divided by itself is equal to 1, 6^3/6^3 also has to equal to one. This also means that when we bring the 6^3 up to the numerator, the equation 6^3-3, which simplifies into 6^0 also has to equal 1, because it is equivalent to being divided by itself.

The velocity of a car increases from 4 m/s at 2 sec. To 32 m/s at 9 sec. What is the car’s average acceleration?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a=4\ m/s^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The velocity of a car increases from 4 m/s at 2 sec to 32 m/s at 9 sec.

We need to find the car's average acceleration. It can be given by the change in velocity divided by the change in time. So,

[tex]a=\dfrac{v-u}{t_2-t_1}\\\\a=\dfrac{32-4}{9-2}\\\\a=4\ m/s^2[/tex]

So, the car's average acceleration is equal to [tex]4\ m/s^2[/tex].

I mile =1609.34meters

also 1000m = 1km

therefore 2km = 2 x 1000= 2000m

Approximate difference = 2000m - 1609.34m
