Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40.8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Element X decays radioactively with a half life of 8 minutes. If there are 480 grams of Element X, how long, to the nearest tenth of a minute, would it take the element to decay to 14 grams?

The formula to find how long it would take which is the time elapsed is given as:

t = t½ × In(Nt/No)/-In2

t = ?

t½ = 8 minutes

Nt = Amount after the time of decay = 14 grams

No = Original Amount of substances = 480 grams

t = 8 × In(14/480)/-In2

t = 40.796285388407 minutes

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 40.8 minutes

Therefore, it would take the element X, 40.8 minutes to decay to 14 grams

Problem 2: x = (6-2)x180 - 90 - 130 - 93 - 150 - 124      = 133

The linear functions f(x) and g(x) are represented on the graph, where g(x) is a transformation of f(x):

A graph with two linear functions; f of x passes through 5, 0 and 10, 10, and g of x passes through negative 3, 0 and 2, 10.

Part A: Describe two types of transformations that can be used to transform f(x) to g(x). (2 points)

Part B: Solve for k in each type of transformation. (4 points)

Part C: Write an equation for each type of transformation that can be used to transform f(x) to g(x). (4 points)

Answers

Answer:

A linear function can be written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If this line passes through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), then the slope is:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

We know that line f(x) passes through points (5, 0) and (10, 10)

Then the slope of f(x) is:

a = (10 - 0)/(10 - 5) = 10/5 = 2

then:

f(x) = 2*x + b

again, knowing that f(10) = 10   (because this line passes through point (10, 10) )

10 = 2*10 + b

10 = 20 + b

10 - 20 = b = -10

Then the equation of this line is:

f(x) = 2*x - 10

Now for g(x) we know that it passes through (-3, 0) and (2, 10)

then the slope is:

a = (10 - 0)/(2 - (-3)) = 10/5 = 2

g(x) = 2*x + b

And knowing that g(2) = 10   (because this line passes through point (2, 10) )

10 = 2*2 + b

10 = 4 + b

10 - 4 = b

6 = b

then:

g(x) = 2*x + 6

Then the equations are:

f(x) = 2*x  - 10

g(x) = 2*x + 6

A) One transformation may be a vertical translation, and the other can be a horizontal translation.

This is a vertical translation, which is defined as:

For a function f(x), a vertical translation of k units is written as:

g(x) = f(x) + k

If k is positive, the translation is upwards

if k is negative, the translation is downwards.

And an horizontal translation of k units is written as:

g(x) = f(x - k)

if k is positive, the translation is to the right

if k is negative, the translation is to the left.

B)

For the vertical translation we have:

g(x) = f(x) + k

2*x + 6 = 2*x  - 10 + k

6 = -10 + k

6 + 10 = k

16 = k

For the horizontal translation we have:

g(x) = f(x - k)

2*x + 6 = 2*(x - k) - 10

2*x + 6 = 2*x - 2*k - 10

6 = -2*k - 10

6 + 10 = -2*k

16 = -2*k

16/-2 = k

-8 = k

C)

The transformations are:

g(x) = f(x) + 16

or

g(x) = f(x - (-8))

Notice that v points into the third quadrant since both of its components are negative. If you want a vector to point in the same direction, it would need to have the same sign on its components. So C is the correct choice.

The factor of 1/√80 comes from normalizing the vector v. Its norm/magnitude is

|v| = √((-4)² + (-8)²) = √(16 + 64) = √80

so the unit vector that points in the same direction as v is simply v / |v|.

Answers

Answer:

A. 4

B. 348

C. 2

D. 174182400

E. x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A= (4ǃ+2ǃ+3ǃ)/(3ǃ+2ǃ)

             B = (6ǃ-4ǃ)/2ǃ

             C = 2ǃx3ǃx4ǃ/(5ǃ+4ǃ)

             D = 10ǃx8ǃ/(6ǃ+5ǃ)

             E -  ((x+5)ǃ(x+3)ǃ)/((x+4)ǃ+(x+3)ǃ)=6ǃ

Proof -

A.

(4! + 2! + 3! )/ (3! + 2!) = [4×3×2! + 2! + 3×2!] / [3×2! + 2!]

                                  = 2! [ 4×3 + 1 + 3] / 2! [3 + 1]

                                  = [12 + 1 + 3] / [4]

                                  = [16] / [4] = 4

⇒(4! + 2! + 3! )/ (3! + 2!) = 4

B.

(6ǃ-4ǃ)/2ǃ = [6×5×4! - 4!] / 2!

              = 4! [6×5 - 1] / 2!

              = 4×3×2! [ 30 - 1] / 2!

              = 12 [29] = 348

⇒(6ǃ-4ǃ)/2ǃ = 348

C.

2ǃx3ǃx4ǃ/(5ǃ+4ǃ) = 2!×3!×4! / [ 5×4! + 4!]

                         = 2!×3!×4! / 4! [ 5 + 1]

                         = (2×1) × (3×2×1) / 6

                         = 12 / 6 = 2

⇒2ǃx3ǃx4ǃ/(5ǃ+4ǃ) = 2

D.

10ǃx8ǃ/(6ǃ+5ǃ) = 10!×8! / [ 6×5! + 5!]

                      = (10×9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1) ×(8×7×6×5!) / 5! [6 + 1]

                      = (10×9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1) ×(8×7×6) / [7]

                      = (10×9×8×7×6×5×4×3×2×1) ×(8×6)

                      = 174182400

⇒10ǃx8ǃ/(6ǃ+5ǃ) = 174182400

E.

((x+5)ǃ(x+3)ǃ)/((x+4)ǃ+(x+3)ǃ)=6ǃ

[(x+5)(x+4)(x+3)! (x+3)!] / [ (x+4)(x+3)! + (x+3)! ] = 6!

[(x+5)(x+4)(x+3)! (x+3)!] / (x+3)!  [ (x+4)+ 1] = 6!

[(x+5)(x+4)(x+3)! / (  [ x+ 5 ] = 6!

(x+4)(x+3)! = 6!

(x+4)! = 6!

x+ 4 = 6

x = 6 - 4

x = 2

Note :

x! = x(x-1)(x-2).......(4)(3)(2)(1)

Janine and her older sister Ingrid's ages are consecutive even numbers. When Janine's age is divided by seven, and Ingrid's age is divided by three, the sum of those numbers is fourteen. How
old are Janine and Ingrid?

Answers

Answer:

Janine is 28. Ingrid is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ages be x and x + 2 for Janine and her sister, respectively.

x/7 + (x + 2)/3 = 14

Multiply both sides by the LCD, 21, to get rid of denominators.

21 * x/7 + 21 * (x + 2)/2 = 21 * 14

3x + 7(x + 2) = 294

3x + 7x + 14 = 294

10x = 280

x = 28

x + 2 = 30

Answer: Janine is 28. Ingrid is 30.

Answer:

Janine is 28 and Ingrid is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Janine's age be x years , then Ingrid's age is x+2 years.

From the given information we have the equation:

x/7 + (x + 2)/3 = 14

Multiplying through by the LCM of 3 and 7 (21),  we have:

3x + 7(x + 2) = 294

10x + 14 = 294

10x =  294-14 = 280

x = 28, so:

Janine is 28 and Ingrid is 30.

Answer:

x=4,y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x=19-5y if we transpose equation 2 for x.

Plug that into equation 1

4(19-5y)+3y=25

76-20y+3y=25

76-25=17y

51=17y

y=3

Plug y=3 into equation 2

x+5(3)=19

x=19-15=4

Answer :Value of x is 4 Value of y is 3 Explaination :

We are having two equations,

4x + 3y = 25 (Equation No 1)x + 5y = 19 (Equation No 2)

From Equation No 2 :-

>> x + 5y = 19

>> x = 19 - 5y

From Equation No 1 :-

Substitute here the value of x which we got above as (19 - 5y).

>> 4x + 3y = 25

>> 4 (19 - 5y) + 3y = 25

>> 4 × (19 - 5y) + 3y = 25

>> 76 - 20y + 3y = 25

>> 76 - 17y = 25

>> -17y = 25 - 76

>> -17y = -51

>> 17y = 51

>> y = 51 / 17

>> y = 3

Finding out value of x :-

>> x = 19 - 5y

>> x = 19 - 5(3)

>> x = 19 - 5 × (3)

>> x = 19 - 15

>> x = 4
