A) -3
B) -1
C) 1
D) 2

Thank you in advance.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  D)  2

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving a system of equations using elimination, it often works well to start with them in a form that has all of the variables on the same side of the equal sign. Putting the second equation into standard form will accomplish that:

3x -2t = 42x +t = 5

To eliminate one of the variables from the system, the equations are multiplied by numbers and combined (added or subtracted) so that the coefficient of one of the varibles becomes 0.

__

Choosing a multiplier

The coefficients of x are 3 and 2. If we are to eliminate x, we either need to multiply one equation by a rational number (2/3 or 3/2), or we need to multiply the two equations by two different numbers (2, 3).

The coefficients of y are -2 and 1. If we are to eliminate y, it is convenient to multiply the second equation by 2. This is probably the most convenient choice.

__

Solution

Multiplying the second equation by 2 and adding it to the first equation, we have ...

  (3x -2t) +2(2x +t) = (4) +2(5)

  7x = 14 . . . . . simplify; the y-variable is eliminated

  x = 2 . . . . . . divide by 7

Using the original second equation, we have ...

  2(2) -5 = -t = -1

  t = 1

So, the solution is (x, t) = (2, 1).

The Happy Widget Company has a fixed cost of $1,378 each day to run their factory and a variable cost of $1.83 for each widget they produce.

Create a linear model for their daily cost.

How much does it cost them to produce 267 widgets?

Answers

The linear model for the daily cost is C(x) = $1378 + $1.83(x).

The cost of producing 267 widgets is $1,866.61

What is the cost of producing 267 widgets?

Fixed cost is the cost the remains constant with the number of widgets produced. Variable cost increases with  the number of widgets produced. Daily cost is the sum of fixed cost and variable cost.

Fixed cost = fixed cost + (variable cost x number of widgets)

C(x) = $1378 + $1.83(x).

C(x) = $1378 + $1.83(267) = $1,866.61

the diameter of a circle is 24 centimeters. what is the circles area? use 3.14 for pi

Answers

Answer:

452.16

Step-by-step explanation:

di is twice the radius and to get area you need radius so 24/2=12

now insert 12 into the formula 12^2*3.14 now use pemdas

12^2=144

144*3.14

452.16

Answer:

Area of circle = 452.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion of diameter into radius,

→ r = 24/2

→ [ r = 12 ]

Formula we use,

→ Area = π × r²

Now the area of circle will be,

→ π × r²

→ 3.14 × (12)²

→ 3.14 × 144

→ 452.16

Hence, area of circle is 452.16.

CAN SOMEBODY HELP IM LOST WITH THIS THIS EQUATION

Answers

Answer:

1. C(d)=0.69x+25.95

2. C(d)=0.69(57)+25.95

[0.69 times 57 is 39.33]

=  65.28 dollars

3. 136.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first question....

Since this is a function, we have to start with C(d). Even if you drive 0 miles, you still have to pay $25.95 just for renting the truck, so that is constant. For every mile you drive, you pay $0.69. Since we don't know how far anyone is going to drive, we will put 'x' as the amount of miles driven. The number of miles driven (x) multiplied by 0.69 will be the cost of that. The final function would be C(d)=0.69x+25.95.

For the second question....

We know the general function now, so driving 57 miles would mean substituting "x" for 57, and doing the multiplication (if necessary), 0.69 times 57 equals 39.33 (the dollar amount for driving 57 miles, not including the starting fee of 25.95)

Doing the math, you can get $65.28 (39.33+25.95).

For the third question...

If we have a budget, we know that C(d) is the amount of money spent, so we'll substitute the budget (120) for that. We'll solve the equation for x from there, and should get 136.3 miles (rounded to the nearest hundredth).

56. How many tangent lines to the curve [tex]y=x /(x+1)[/tex] pass through the point (1,2)? At which points do these tangent lines touch the curve?

Answers

There are 2 tangent lines that pass through the point

[tex]y=\frac{1}{(-1+\sqrt{3)^2} } (x-1)+2[/tex]

and

[tex]y=\frac{1}{(-1-\sqrt{3)^2} } (x-1)+2[/tex]

Explanation:

Given:

[tex]y=\frac{x}{x+1}[/tex]

The point-slope form of the equation of a line tells us that the form of the tangent lines must be:

[tex]y=m(x-1)+2[/tex] [tex][1][/tex]

For the lines to be tangent to the curve, we must substitute the first derivative of the curve for [tex]m[/tex]:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{d(x)}{dx}(x+1)-x^\frac{d(x+1)}{dx} \\ \\[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} =\frac{x+1-x}{(x+1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{1}{(x+1)^2}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{1}{(x+1)^2}[/tex] [tex][2][/tex]

Substitute equation [2] into equation [1]:

[tex]y=\frac{x-1}{(x+1)^2}+2[/tex] [tex][1.1][/tex]

Because the line must touch the curve, we may substitute [tex]y=\frac{x}{x+1}:[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x}{x+1}=\frac{x-1}{(x+1)^2}+2[/tex]

Solve for x:

[tex]x(x+1)=(x-1)+2(x+1)^2[/tex]

[tex]x^2+x=x-1+2x^2+4x+2[/tex]

[tex]x^2+4x+1[/tex]

[tex]x\frac{-4±\sqrt{4^2-4(1)(1)} }{2(1)}[/tex]

[tex]x=-2[/tex] ± [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=-2[/tex] ± [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] [tex]and[/tex] [tex]x=-2-\sqrt{3}[/tex]

There are 2 tangent lines.

You pick a card from a shuffled pack and draw a king. You put it back in the pack, shuffle, and then pick another card. This time you draw a queen. How are the two events of picking a king and picking a queen related?

Answers

Answer:

The two events are independent

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the king was placed back in the deck and the deck was re-shuffled,

the drawing of a king does not effect the probability of subsequently drawing a queen.

The probability of picking the queen is independent of the probability of picking the king.

pick a card from a shuffled pack and draw a king. You put it back in the pack, shuffle, and then pick another card. This time you draw a queen. How are the two events of picking a king and picking a queen related to be justified

What is probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.

There is a 52-card deck.
Pick a card from a shuffled pack and draw a king. You put it back in the pack, shuffle,
Probability can be given as for the draw of the king,
p = 1/52

Put it back in the pack, shuffle, and then pick another card. This time you draw a queen.
Probability can be given as for the draw of the queen,
p = 1/52

Since both probabilities is the same it implies the probability of one event is independent of the other.


Thus, the probability of picking the queen is independent of the probability of picking the king.

Given that f(x)=2x-3 find f-1(7)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(7)=5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x)=2x-3}[/tex]

To find:

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(7)}[/tex]

Inverse Function Definition:

A function that swaps domain to range and range to domain is called an inverse function.

Notation Definition (Example - Exponential Function and Logarithm are Inverse to each other.)

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x) = \{(x,y) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R^{+}} \ | \ y=a^x, a\neq 1, a > 0 \}}\\\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(x) = \{(x,y) \in \mathbb{R^{+}} \times \mathbb{R} \ | \ y=\log_a x, a\neq 1, a > 0 \}}[/tex]

Notice that both functions have swapped domain and range. Domain is set of all x-values while range is set of all y-values.

Inverse Property:

Inverse of Inverse Function will convert itself back to original f(x) function.

Back to the question, first, we have to find an inverse of linear function. We can do by swapping x and y [f(x)] variables.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x)=2x-3 \to x=2f(x)-3}[/tex]

Solve for f(x):

[tex]\displaystyle \large{x=2f(x)-3}\\\displaystyle \large{x+3=2f(x)}\\\displaystyle \large{f(x)=\dfrac{x+3}{2}}\\\therefore \displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x+3}{2}}[/tex]

Therefore, the inverse is (x+3)/2. Next, we find [tex]\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(7)}[/tex] which we can do by simply substituting x = 7 in the inverse.

[tex]\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(7)=\dfrac{7+3}{2}}\\\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(7)=\dfrac{10}{2}}\\\displaystyle \large{f^{-1}(7)=5}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is 5.

Answers

Answer:

first choice

Step-by-step explanation:

First, observe the axis.

The graph has labeled:

vertical axe as h (hight) and

horizontal axe as t (time).

Second, observe on the graph that the object is dropped from the height 120 feet because at the point t = 0 (when the drop did not start yet) the height is h = 120.

→We can eliminate the last choice that said "object is dropped from -16 feet"

Third, the equations for the hight of the object after t seconds are when the object is dropped from 120 feet are:

h(t) = -16t² + 120

if t= 0 then hight should be 120

h(t) = -16·0² + 120 = 120 ✅

and

h(t) = -16t² - 120

if t= 0 then hight should be 120

h(t) = -16·0² - 120 = - 120 ❌

Eliminate the second choice that said at t=0 , h(t) = -120

The first choice is the correct one
