Answers

Answer 1
Fraction of either vanilla or chocolate = 1/3 + 1/2 = 2/6 + 3/6 = 5/6
Answer 2

The required fraction of the ice cream cones sold were either chocolate or vanilla is 5/6.

What is  Least Common Denominator?

The lowest common denominator is defined as the set of fraction denominators with the lowest common multiple. The lowest positive integer with more than one denominator in the set is LCD.

We have been given that of the ice cream cones sold yesterday at Percy's ice cream shop, 1/3 were chocolate and another 1/2 were vanilla.

We have to determine the fraction of the ice cream cones sold were either chocolate or vanilla

1/3 equals 2/6

According to the given question,

The fraction of either vanilla or chocolate will be:

⇒ 1/3 + 1/2

Change into a lowest common denominator,

⇒  2/6 + 3/6

Apply the addition operation to get

⇒  5/6

Therefore, the required fraction of either vanilla or chocolate is 5/6.

What is the multiplicative rate of change of the exponential function shown on the graph?

A) 2/9
B) 1
C) 4
D) 9/2

Answers

Answer:

Option: D is correct.

9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the multiplicative rate of change of the exponential function shown on the graph.

We know that a general exponential function is given as:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

where b is the multiplicative rate of change.

Now when x=0 we have y=1.

i.e. 1=a

Hence, a=1

and y=b^x

Also,

the graph passes through (1,9/2)

Now when x=1 we have y=9/2

i.e.

9/2=b

Hence, the multiplicative rate of change is:

9/2

The correct answer is A) 2/9. The multiplicative rate of change of the exponential function shown on the graph is A) 2/9.

To determine the multiplicative rate of change of an exponential function from its graph, we need to identify two points on the graph that are one unit apart horizontally (i.e., one unit apart in the x-direction). The multiplicative rate of change is the ratio of the function values (y-values) of these two points.

Let's assume we have two points, (x, y) and (x+1, y'), where y and y' are the corresponding y-values of the exponential function at these x-values. The multiplicative rate of change, r, is given by:

[tex]\[ r = \frac{y'}{y} \][/tex]

From the graph, we can identify two such points. For example, if the function passes through the y-axis at (0, 1) and then at (1, 2/9), we can calculate the multiplicative rate of change as follows:

[tex]\[ r = \frac{2/9}{1} = \frac{2}{9} \][/tex]

This is the multiplicative rate of change of the exponential function. It indicates that for every unit increase in x, the y-value is multiplied by 2/9.

Therefore, the multiplicative rate of change of the exponential function shown on the graph is A) 2/9.

A moving company charges a $2,000 fee plus $100 per hour. Another moving company charges an $1,800 fee plus $150 per hour. How long is a job for which the two companies' costs are the same?

Answers

The costs of two moving companies are the same for a job that lasts 4 hours.

To find out how long a job must last for the two companies' costs to be the same, we need to set up an equation where both company costs are equal and solve for the time variable, which I will denote as 't' hours.

The first moving company's cost can be represented as:$2,000 + $100 x t.

The second moving company's cost can be represented as: $1,800 + $150 x t.

To find the time when both costs are the same, we set the two expressions equal to each other:

$2,000 + $100t = $1,800 + $150t

Now, we need to solve for 't' by subtracting $100t from both sides and subtracting $1,800 from both sides:

$200 = $50t

Divide both sides by $50 to isolate 't':

t = 4 hours

So, the two companies would have the same cost for a 4-hour job.

What is the perimeter of a square with an area of 144 square inches?

Answers

Hi!

Since we know a square has sides of equal length, and to find the area of a square you square one of the side lengths, find the square root of 144.

The square root of 144 is 12.

So the means each side length is 12.

A perimeter is the distance around the square, or all of the side lengths added together.

4 sides on a square, each length is 12...
12 x 4 = 48

The perimeter is 48

What is the solution to the following system of linear equations?

{4x - y = -6
{x - 2y = -5

Please explain how you solved!

Answers

Final answer:

The solution to the system of linear equations is x = -1, y = 2

Explanation:

To solve the system of linear equations:
4x - y = -6
x - 2y = -5
We can use the method of substitution or elimination to find the solution.
Let's use the elimination method. We can multiply the second equation by 4 to make the coefficients of x in both equations the same.
4(x - 2y) = 4(-5)
4x - 8y = -20
Now, we can subtract the second equation from the first equation to eliminate x.
(4x - y) - (4x - 8y) = (-6) - (-20)
-y + 8y = 14
7y = 14
y = 2
Substituting y = 2 back into the first equation:
4x - 2 = -6
4x = -4
x = -1
The solution to the system of linear equations is x = -1, y = 2

What are the solutions to x2 8x 7 = 0? x = –8 and x = –7 x = –7 and x = –1 x = 1 and x = 7 x = 7 and x = 8?

Answers

We want to solve
x² + 8x + 7 = 0

Factorize the left side.
x² + 8x + 7 = (x + 1)(x + 7)

Therefore
(x + 1)(x + 7) = 0
When (x + 1) = 0, obtain x = -1.
When (x + 7) = 0, obtain x = -7.

The solutions are x = -1 and x = -7

Answer: x = -7  and x = -1.


The correct solutions to the given equation are x = 1 and x = 7.

The solutions to the equation x² - 8x + 7 = 0 are x = 1 and x = 7.

To find these solutions, we can factor the quadratic equation by finding two numbers that multiply to 7 (the constant term) and add up to -8 (the coefficient of the x term).

Therefore, the correct solutions to the given equation are x = 1 and x = 7.

3/5 turns into 24/40 & 5/8 turns into 25/40

So, our new question looks like this :

24/40 + 25/40

24 + 25 = 49

what is cos of negative pi/3?
what is sin of negative pi/3?

Answers

pi/3 is equivalent to 60 degrees, as 2pi is equal to 360 degrees. cos(60) in a triangle yields 1/2, and sin(60) yields (3^(1/2))/2. Thus, -pi/3, or -60 degrees would be a fourth quadrant point on the unit circle and these values would be negative as well, at cos(-pi/3)=-1/2 and sin(-pi/3)=-(3^(1/2))/2 
Cosine is even function, so:

[tex]$\cos(-\frac{\pi}{3})=\cos(\frac{\pi}{3})=\frac{1}{2} [/tex]

and sine is odd function, so:

[tex]$\sin(-\frac{\pi}{3})=-\sin(\frac{\pi}{3})=-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} [/tex]

What is the area of a triangle whose vertices are
R(−4, 2),S(1, 2), and T(−5, −4)?
 
Enter your answer in the box

Answers

ANSWER

15 square units.

EXPLANATION

This triangle has one of its height(altitudes) falling outside the triangle.

We determine the base using absolute value method. This is because the coordinates of [tex]R(-4,2)[/tex] and [tex]S(1,2)[/tex] tell us that this line is horizontal. The y-values are constant.

Therefore [tex]|RS|=|1--4|[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |RS|=|1+4|[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |RS|=|5|[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow |RS|=5[/tex]

Also

The triangle is bounded between [tex]y=2[/tex] and [tex]y=-4[/tex].

Therefore the vertical height of interest,

[tex]|RT|=|-4-2|[/tex]

[tex]|RT|=|-6|[/tex]

[tex]|RT|=6[/tex]

We can now find the area using the formula

[tex]Area=\frac{1}{2}base\times height[/tex]

[tex]Area=\frac{1}{2}\times6 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]Area=3 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]Area=15[/tex] square units

5/16t=-9

Plz help me ASAP and show all of the steps that you did! PLEASE HELP!!! :) 10 POINTS!!!!!

Answers

I'm going to assume that the equation is [tex]\frac{5}{16}t = -9[/tex] where the 't' is not in the denominator

If that assumption is correct, then we do two things to solve for t. First, we multiply both sides by 16. This undoes the division of 16 on the left side

[tex]\frac{5}{16}t = -9[/tex]

[tex]16*\frac{5}{16}t = 16*(-9)[/tex]

[tex]5t = -144[/tex]

-------------------------------

Then we divide both sides by 5 to undo the multiplication of 5 (note: 5t means 5*t or "5 times t")

[tex]5t = -144[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5t}{5} = \frac{-144}{5}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{144}{5}[/tex]

-------------------------------

So here's what all the steps look like:

[tex]\frac{5}{16}t = -9[/tex]

[tex]16*\frac{5}{16}t = 16*(-9)[/tex]

[tex]5t = -144[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5t}{5} = \frac{-144}{5}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{144}{5}[/tex]

note: -144/5 converts to the decimal value of -28.8 so t = -144/5 is the same as t = -28.8

Each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. The sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in Japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. A wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. Any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. The seventieth-ranked wrestler in Japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. Life isnt very sweet outside the elite. Low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. So ranking is everything. A wrestlers ranking is based on his performance in the elite tournaments that are held six times a year. Each wrestler has fifteen bouts per tournament, one per day over fifteen consecutive days. If he finishes the tournament with a winning record (eight victories or better), his ranking will rise. If he has a losing record, his ranking falls. If it falls far enough, he is booted from the elite rank entirely. The eighth victory in any tournament is therefore critical, the difference between promotion and demotion; it is roughly four times as valuable in the rankings as the typical victory.
