Answers

Answer 1

Complete question is;

There are three different hoses used to fill a pool: hose x, hose y, and hose z. Hose x can fill the pool in a days, hose y in b days, and hose z in c days, where a > b > c. When all three hoses are used together to fill a pool, it takes d days to fill the pool. Which of the following must be true?

I. d < c

II. d > b

III. c/3 < d <a/3

A) I only

B) III only

C) I and III only

D) II only

E) I, II and III

Answer:

The correct option is C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the 3 hoses combined together will fill the pool faster than the time for the hoses to accomplish it individually. Therefore, the time "d" will be lesser than any of the individual times used by each hose.

Hence, statement I is true and II is false.

Now, we know that if each of the three hoses took c days to complete the job, then together they would take c/3 days. However, in reality, two of the three hoses even took more than c days. So, in a nutshell together they would take more than "c/3" days, and therefore d > c/3.

Likewise, if each of the three hoses took "a" days to finish the job, then when combined together, they would take "a/3" days. Now, two of the three hoses used fewer than "a" days and so when combined together they would take less than "a/3" days and therefore d < a/3.

If we combine the last 2 paragraphs, we will arrive at c/3 < d < a/3 and that is same as statement III.

Thus, statement I and III are true. The correct option is C

a = 56.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

tan(a) = 9/6 = 1.5

atan(1.5) = 56.31°

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 56.3 \textdegree}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the measure of angle a.

This triangle is a right triangle because of the small triangle in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use trigonometric functions. The three main functions are:

sinθ=opposite/hypotenuse cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse tanθ= opposite/adjacent

The side measuring 6 is adjacent or next to angle a. The side measuring 9 is opposite angle a. Therefore, we will use the tangent function.

[tex]tan \theta= \frac{ opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

[tex]tan \ a = \frac{ 9}{6}[/tex]

Since we are solving for an angle measure, we use the inverse trigonometric function.

[tex]tan ^{-1} * tan \ a = tan ^{-1} * \frac{9}6}[/tex]

[tex]a= tan ^{-1} * \frac{9}6}[/tex]

[tex]a= 56.30993247[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 0 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 3 in the tenth place.

[tex]a \approx 56.3[/tex]

The measure of angle a is approximately 56.3 degrees.

[tex]\boxed{3m - 12 > 30 \wedge -6m\geq 24}[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = [tex]\frac{5x+5}{x^2+x-2}[/tex]

The denominator cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined.

Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the values that x cannot be and if the numerator is non zero for these values then they are vertical asymptotes.

solve x² + x - 2 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 2)(x - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1

The vertical asymptotes are x = 1 and x = - 2

Aliyah, Brenda and Candy share a sum of money in the ratio of 3:5:6. After
Candy gives $100 to Aliyah and $50 to Brenda, the ratio becomes 2 : 3:3.
(a) Suppose Aliyah has $3x at the start, express Candy's initial sum of money in
terms of x.
(b) Find the value of x.
(c) Hence, how much money does Brenda have in the end?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Candy's initial sum as a terms of x is $6x

(b) x = $60

(c) $350

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The ratio in which Aliyah, Brenda and Candy share the sum of money = 3:5:6

The amount Candy later gives Aliyah = $100

The amount Candy later gives Brenda = $50

The new ratio of the sum of the shared money between Aliyah, Brenda and Candy = 2:3:3

(a) Whereby Aliyah has $3x at the start, we have;

Total sum of mony = Y

Amount of Aliyah's initial share = Y × 3/(3 + 5 + 6) = Y×3/14

Therefore, Y×3/14 = $3x

x = Y×3/14 ÷ 3 = Y/14

Amount of Candy's initial share = Y × 6/14

Therefore Candy's initial sum as a terms of x = $6x

(b) Given that Aliyah's and Candy's initial sum as a function of x are   $3x and $6x, therefore, in the ratio 3:5:6, Brenda's  initial sum as a function of x = $5x

Which gives;

Total amount of money = $14x

With

6x - 150, 3x + 100, and 5x + 50, the ratio =is 2:3:3

Therefore, we have;

14·x × 2/(2 + 3 + 3) = (6·x - 150)

14·x × 2/(8) = (6·x - 150)

14·x × 1/4 = (6·x - 150)

7·x/2 = (6·x - 150)

12·x - 300 = 7·x

12·x - 7·x = 300

5·x = 300

x = $60

(b) The final amount of money with Brenda = 5x + 50 = 5 × 60 + 50 = $350

The final amount of money with Brenda = $350.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, we need to understand exponent rules.  This one is like this, "A power to a power, you multiply the exponents".  This is simply, because this expression would be equivalent to 3 base terms:

(x^(1/6))^3 = (x^(1/6)) * (x^(1/6)) * (x^(1/6))

And when you perform this multiplication "Powers of like bases, you add the exponents", you will get the following

(x^(1/6)) * (x^(1/6)) * (x^(1/6)) = x^(1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6) = x^(3/6) = x^(1/2)

Hence, this expression simplifies to x^(1/2).

Which of these is NOT discrete data:
A. number of home-runs hit in a professional baseball game
B. air pressure in a car tire
C. cars per household in a town
D. number of pills in a container of vitamins

Answers

Answer:

B, air pressure in a car tire.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete data is data which come in intervals, and isn't continuous.

The number of home runs can only go 0 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3, you can't have 2.5 or 3.2 home-runs.

The number of pills in a container can also only go 0 -> 1 -> 2. Again, can't have 0.7 pills.

The number of cars per household is also discrete. The number of cars in a household goes 0 -> 1 -> 2, you can't have half a car!

However, the air pressure is continuous. If you're increasing the air pressure, it'll (in theory) go from 0 -> 0.000...001 -> 0.000..002 etc. It doesn't "jump" from 0 pressure -> 1 pressure like the others, it goes smoothly. It can be any value.

So the air pressure isn't discrete data.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the sum of:

[tex]1 + 2 + 3+ 4+ ...... +200[/tex]

As per the trick of Gauss, let us divide the above terms in two halves.

[tex]1+2+3+4+\ldots+100[/tex] and

[tex]101+102+103+104+\ldots+200[/tex]

Let us re rewrite the above terms by reversing the second sequence of terms.

[tex]1+2+3+4+\ldots+100[/tex]  (it has 100 terms) and

[tex]200+199+198+197+\ldots+101[/tex] (It also has 100 terms)

Adding the corresponding terms (it will also contain 100 terms):

1 + 200 = 201

2 + 199 = 201

3 + 198 = 201

:

:

100 + 101 = 201

The number of terms in each sequence are 100.

So, we have to add 201 for 100 times to get the required sum.

Required sum = 201 + 201 + 201 + 201 + . . . + 201  (100 times)

Required sum = 100 [tex]\times[/tex] 201 = 20100

Also another equation of the line which passes through point (-4,2), we get;

(y-2) = m2(X+4)............(ii) { using the formula (y-y1) = m2(x-x2)}

According to the question, they are perpendicular to eachother, So according to the condition of perpendicular lines;

m1*m2 = -1

-2*m2 = -1

or, m2 = 1/2.

Therefore, m2= 1/2.

Now, keeping the value of m2 in equation (ii).

(y-2) = 1/2(x+4)

y = (1/2)x + 4

Therefore, the required equation is: y = (1/2)x + 4.
