nine hours. Molly can paint the same
fence in eight hours. Find how long it
would take them if they worked together.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it would be In 17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let me know if I am wrong or right thxs

Answer 2

Answer:

4 4/17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In one hour Jacob can paint 1/9 of the fence

In one hour Molly can paint 1/8 of the fence

This equation can determine how long it would take if they worked together:

1/9x + 1/8x = 1

multiply each term by lcm of 72 to eliminate denominators to get:

8x + 9x = 72

17x = 72

x = 72/17

x = 4 4/17 hours

Write an inequality for the graph.​

Answers

Answer:

h(x) ≥ |x - 5| +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given graph represents an absolute function (parent function)

f(x) = |x|

Since, graph of the function 'f' has been shifted 5 units to the right new function will be,

g(x) = f(x - 5)

g(x) = |x - 5|

Again function 'g' is shifted 1 unit upwards along the y-axis then the new function will be,

h(x) = g(x) + 1

h(x) = |x - 5| + 1

There is a shaded region representing the solution area lying above the intersecting dark lines,

Therefore, solution region will be re[presented by the inequality,

h(x) ≥ |x - 5| + 1

B) 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is 48 units (8 x 6).

The base of the is 6 units and the height is 8 units. The formula for the are of a triangle is A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]bh.

b = base

h = height

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](6)(8)

A = 24

Answer:

[tex]24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If the area of a rectangle is bh, and the area of a triangle is bh/2, then a triangle's area is half a rectangle's area. Hence, if the area of the rectangle is 48, the area of the triangle is half of 48, or 24.

1) Devin wants to play lazer tag for his birthday. He is comparing the cost of two companies. Lazer Zone charges $50 for parties, and an additional $10 per guest. Fun Palace charges $90 for parties, and an additional $6 per guest. For how many guests is the cost of both companies the same?

Answers

Answer:

10 guests

Step-by-step explanation:

Devin wants to play lazer tag for his birthday. He is comparing the cost of two companies.

Let us represent additional guests = g

Lazer Zone charges $50 for parties, and an additional $10 per guest.

=$50 + $10 × g

50 + 10g

For fun place

Fun Palace charges $90 for parties, and an additional $6 per guest.

= $90 + $6 × g

90 + 6g

For how many ?

We equate both Equations together

= 50 + 10g = 90 + 6g

Collect like terms

10g - 6g = 90 - 50

4g = 40

g = 40/4

g = 10

Hence, g = 10 guests

Therefore, the number of guests for which the cost of both companies is the same is 10 guests

7. The local theatre performed a Saturday matinee to a crowd of 215 people. Tickets cost $11 child and $15 per adult, bringing in a total of $2877. Use an inverse matrix to determine the number of each type of ticket sold .

Answers

Answer:

The total number of child ticket sold  = 87

The total number of adult ticket sold = 128

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -  The local theatre performed a Saturday matinee to a crowd of 215 people. Tickets cost $11 child and $15 per adult, bringing in a total of $2877.

To find - Use an inverse matrix to determine the number of each type of ticket sold .

Proof -

Let the total number of child ticket sold = x

Let the total number of adult ticket sold = y

Given that, The local theatre performed a Saturday matinee to a crowd of 215 people.

⇒x + y = 215

Also,

Given that,  Tickets cost $11 child and $15 per adult, bringing in a total of $2877

⇒11x + 15y = 2877

So,

The equations becomes

x + y = 215

11x + 15y = 2877

So,

The matrix form becomes

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1\\11&15\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}215\\2877\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1\\11&15\end{array}\right| \left\begin{array}{ccc}215\\2877\end{array}\right ] \\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1\\0&4\end{array}\right| \left\begin{array}{ccc}215\\512\end{array}\right ] \\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1\\0&1\end{array}\right| \left\begin{array}{ccc}215\\128\end{array}\right ]\\\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right| \left\begin{array}{ccc}87\\128\end{array}\right ][/tex]

By comparing, we get

x = 87

y = 128

So, we get

The total number of child ticket sold = x = 87

The total number of adult ticket sold = y = 128

If two zeroes of the polynomial f(x)=x3−4x2−3x+12 are √3 and -√3 then find its third zero.

Answers

Answer:

Third zero is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomial is;

f(x) = x³ − 4x² − 3x + 12

We are given 2 zeros which are √3 and -√3.

This means that a factor of the polynomial will b; (x² - 3) because when it is equated to zero, x will be √3 and -√3.

Now, to get the other factor of the polynomial, we have to divide x³ − 4x² − 3x + 12 by (x² - 3) using long division method.

I have attached this long division method and we have the third factor as; (x - 4)

Equating to zero, we have x = 4 as the third zero of the polynomial
