Five years ago, a computer that worked half as fast as a current computer cost twice as much money. The current computer's speed to price ratio is what percent of the older computer's speed to price ratio? I'm confused on what the ratio is

Dan is 52 years old and Matt is 4 years old.

The first step is to form a system of equations using the information provided in the question:

a + b = 56 equation 1

a = 13b equation 2

Where:

a = Dan's age

b = Matt's age

The substitution method would be used to determine the values.

Substitute for a in equation 1 using equation 2:

13b + b = 56 equation 3

14b = 56

b = 56 / 14

b = 4

Substitute for b in equation 2:

a = 13(4)

a = 13 x 4

= 52

There are 2 values of k, 12 and -12, for which the polynomial x^2 + kx - 36 has two distinct integer roots.

The polynomial x^2 + kx - 36 has two distinct integer roots if and only if its discriminant is a perfect square.

The value of the discriminant is given by:

b^2 - 4ac = k^2 + 4 * 36 = k^2 + 144

So, for the polynomial x^2 + kx - 36 to have two distinct integer roots, k^2 + 144 must be a perfect square.

We know that the difference of two consecutive perfect squares is equal to an odd number, so we can start testing values of k by incrementing k by 1 and checking if k^2 + 144 is a perfect square.

Starting with k = 0, we have k^2 + 144 = 144, which is not a perfect square. For k = 1, k^2 + 144 = 145, which is also not a perfect square.

For k = 2, k^2 + 144 = 148, which is still not a perfect square.

We keep incrementing k and checking until we find a value of k such that k^2 + 144 is a perfect square.

When k = 12, we have k^2 + 144 = 168, which is a perfect square (12^2).

Therefore, the polynomial x^2 + 12x - 36 has two distinct integer roots.

We can repeat this process for negative values of k to see if the polynomial has two distinct integer roots for those values.

We find that for k = -12, the polynomial x^2 - 12x - 36 also has two distinct integer roots.

95 and 50 are the measures of those two angles.

The properties of the triangle are: The sum of all the angles of a triangle (of all types) is equal to 180°. The sum of the length of the two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. In the same way, the difference between the two sides of a triangle is less than the length of the third side.

given, One angle of a triangle measures 35°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 10:19.

Let second angle of the triangle is "x"

Thus, third angle of triangle will be = 10/19x

Since, sum of the three angles of triangle is 180 degrees

35 + x + 10/19x = 180

29x/19 = 145

x = 5 *19

x = 95

So, Second angle of triangle = x = 95

Third angle of triangle = 10/19x = 50

therefore, the measures of those two angles are 95 and 50.

The perimeter of the given figure is 79.4 units.

The perimeter of a polygon is defined as the length of the boundary around the sides of the polygon. The perimeter of a polygon can be calculated by calculating the sum of the lengths of the sides of the polygon.

EF = 8, FD = 10, ED = 11, IG = 24, and HG = 26.4  

As we know,

Perimeter = Sum of all sides  

The perimeter of GHI = (EF + FD + ED + IG + HG)

To solve the equation 7cos(9x)−1=1, we first need to move the 1 to the left side of the equation:

7cos(9x) = 2

To find the solutions of the equation, we can divide both sides by 7:

cos(9x) = 2/7

Now we will use the inverse cosine function, denoted as arccos, to find the angle that has a cosine value of 2/7. Since the function cos is periodic with period 2Pi, it's range is [-1,1], we will look for the solutions between 0 and 2Pi.

x = (1/9)arccos(2/7) + (2kPi)/9 for k =0,1,2,....

we can also express the solution in degrees by multiplying the radian measure with 180/Pi.

x = (20/63)arccos(2/7) + (160*k) for k =0,1,2,....

or

x = (20/63) * arccos(2/7) * (180/pi) + (160*k) for k =0,1,2,....

where k is an integer.

So, x = (20/63) * arccos(2/7) * (180/pi) + (160*k) where k =0,1,2,.... is an expression that represents all solutions to the equation in degrees.

b. The channels frequency in hertz 6×10⁷hertz

c. The frequency of a microwave in hertz is 3× 10^10 hertz

d. The frequency of light is 10⁵ times greater than the frequency of the radio station

Frequency describes the number of waves that pass a fixed place in a given amount of time. So if the time it takes for a wave to pass is is 1/2 second, the frequency is 2 per second. If it takes 1/100 of an hour, the frequency is 100 per hour.

The S.I unit of frequency is hertz and it has other bigger unit stated as follows:

1 kilohertz = 10³hertz

1megahertz = 10⁶ hertz

1 gigahertz = 10⁹ hertz

1 tera hertz = 10^12 hertz

Therefore 60mega hertz = 60× 10⁶ = 6×10⁷

30 gigahertz = 30 × 10⁹ = 3 × 10^10

if the frequency of light is 1000 tera hertz and 100 mega hertz is the frequency of a radio station , then the frequency of light will be 1000×10^12 ÷ 100× 10⁶ = 10⁵ greater than the frequency of the radio station.

We will use system of equations to find cost of 1 soft drink and 1 hot dog. let the cost of 1 soft drink is = $x  ;  and

let the cost of 1 hot dog is = $y  ;

So , for William the situation is represented as ;

⇒ 3x + 2y = 7.70 .....equation(1)

and for Sarah the situation is represented as ;

⇒ 2x + y = 4.55    ....equation(2)

we first solve equation(1) for y:

⇒ y = (7.70 - 3x)/2

We can substitute this expression for y in equation (2) and solve for x:

⇒ 2x + (7.70 - 3x)/2 = 4.55

⇒ 4x + (7.70 - 3x) = 4.55×2

⇒ 4x -3x = 9.1 - 7.70

⇒ x = 1.4

So, the cost of 1 soft drink is $1.4  ,

Now , We can use this value of x to find the cost of 1 hot dog:

⇒ y = (7.70 - 3x)/2

⇒ y = (7.70 - 3×1.4)/2

⇒ y = (7.70 - 4.2)/2

⇒ y = 3.5/2  ;

⇒ y = 1.75

So, the cost of 1 hot dog is $1.75  .
