The sum of two numbers is 38 and the difference is 8. What are the numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Since the sum is 38, y must be 15. And indeed the difference between 23 and 15 is 8, so it's correct.

Answer 2

Answer:

15 & 23

Step-by-step explanation:

I used an insert and check kind of method. Basically you insert numbers and check if they work for both equations. the equations are as follow:

X + Y = 38

X - Y = 8

I inserted various combinations of numbers and we'll use one as reference.

I used 16 and 22. 16 and 22 correctly fits the requirements of the first equation but when we do 22 - 16 we see that it equals 6. this is 2 off from the second equation. Using this info I ask myself, was the answer close or far from the answer needed.

Hope this answered any questions. please comment on this if you need any othern have a nice day!

A farmer finds that if she plants 50 trees per acre, each tree will yield 80 bushels of fruit. She estimates that for each additional tree planted per acre, the yield of each tree will decrease by 3 bushels. How many trees should she plant per acre to maximize her harvest?

Answers

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let x be the number of trees.

F(x) = (50 +x) (20 - 3x)

F(x) = 1000 - 150x + 20x - 3x²)

F(x) = -3x² - 130x + 1000

Differentiating F(x) with respect to x;

[tex]F'(x) = \dfrac{d}{dx}( -3x^2- 130x + 1000)[/tex]

[tex]F'(x) = ( -3(2x)- 130(1) +0)[/tex]

F'(x) = -6x -130

Now; we set F'(x) to be equal to zero to determine the critical value;

-6x - 130 = 0

x = - 130/6

Differentiating F''(x) with respect to x

[tex]F''(x) = \dfrac{d}{dx}( -6x- 130)[/tex]

[tex]F''(x) = ( -6(1))[/tex]

F''(x) = -6 (<0)

Thus; by the second derivative, the revenue function F(x) is maximum when x = -130/6

Therefore, the number of trees she should plant per acre to maximize her harvest is:

50 + x = 50 - 130/6

= 85/3

[tex]\simeq[/tex] 28

Therefore, the number of trees per acre to maximize the harvest is 28

Ashton is depositing money into a checking account. After 3 months there is $120 in the account. After 6 months, there is $240 in the account. Determine the constant rate of change of the account.

Answers

The constant rate of change of the account is $40 or Increasing by $40 per month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Joanne is depositing money into a bank account. After 3 months there is $120 in the account. After 6 months there is $240 in the account.

Rate of change is known as how one quantity change in relation to other.

The rate of change can be calculated as:

y2-y1/x2-x1  

Now use the above formula to calculated the rate of change.

240 - 120/6-3

120/3

40

Hence, the constant rate of change of the account is $40 or Increasing by $40 per month.

Nancy is checking to determine if the expressions x + 4 + x and 6 + 2 x minus 2 are equivalent. When x = 3, she correctly finds that both expressions have a value of 10. When x = 5, she correctly evaluates the first expression to find that x + 4 + x =14. What is the value of the second expression when x = 5, and are the two expressions equivalent? The value of the second expression is 8, so the expressions are not equivalent. The value of the second expression is 14, so the expressions are equivalent. The value of the second expression is 16, so the expressions are equivalent. The value of the second expression is 18, so the expressions are not equivalent.

Determine if the product CA is defined. If the product is defined, state its dimensions. Do not calculate the product.

Answers

Answer:

The product can be calculated.

The resulting matrix will have 3 rows and 3 columns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Matrix multiplication

To find the product of two matrices is only possible when the number of columns of the first matrix is equal to the number of rows of the second matrix.

If X is the first matrix with dimensions (n x m) and Y is the second matrix with dimensions (m x p), the product XY is possible and the dimensions of the resulting matrix are (n x p).

Matrix A has two rows and three columns (2x3)

Matric C has three rows and two columns (3x2)

If we wanted to calculate the product CA, the number of columns of C must be equal to the number of rows of A.

Since both numbers are 2, the product can be calculated.

The resulting matrix will have 3 rows and 3 columns.

I am sorry if I'm wrong, but I got 600 or 36000/60

Step-by-step explanation:

First I looked for the least common denominator,(LCM) it was 60. Then I multiplied the numerator by the number that was multiplied by the denominator to find the new numerator for each fraction.(Example: The denominator was 60, so I looked for what 60 divided by four was, because that was the denominator. It ended up being 15. now I multiplied the numerator, which was 1 by 15 to create the new numerator. Then I did that with the other two fractions.) After all the fractions have the same denominator, you can multiply them. To multiply fractions you multiply all the numerators together and leave the denominator the same. Then I just simplified it. From 36000/60 to 600. Hope this helped :)

Answers

Answer:

18p^2-2p

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to distribute

2*9= 18, p*p= p^2 so 18p^2

Then

2*-1= -2 and you need to include the p so -2p

Answer: 18p²-2p

Working:

• We multiply everything inside the brackets by what is outside the brackets
- So, we multiply 9p - 1 by 2p
- To do 9p x 2p we multiply the coefficients first (the number before the letter), which gives us 18 (9 x 2)
- Then we multiply the letters, p x p which gives us p²
- Then add the two things together which gives us 18p²

• Then we do -1 x 2p, which we do in the same way as before
- This gives us -2p
- Using both of these we put them back together which gives us:

• 18p² - 2p

Steve ran for class president against Mandy. Steve received 5 votes for every 3 votes that Mandy received. Mandy received 420 votes. If all the students only voted once?how many students voted in the election? Pls help ASAP!!

Answers

Answer:

1120

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio Steve : Mandy is 5 : 3.

We use a proportion to find the number of votes Steve received.

x = number of votes Steve received.

5/3 = x/420

3x = 5 * 420

x = 5 * 140

x = 700

Steve received 700 votes.

The total number of votes is the sum of the votes Steve receive and Mandy received.

420 + 700 = 1120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

(2x⁵ + 3y⁴)(-4x² + 9y⁴)

Required:

Find an equivalent polynomial

Solution:

(2x⁵ + 3y⁴)(-4x² + 9y⁴)

Using distributive property of multiplication

2x⁵(-4x² + 9y⁴) + 3y⁴(-4x² + 9y⁴)

-8x⁷ + 18x⁵y⁴ - 12x²y⁴ + 27y⁸
