The container that holds the water of the football team is 2/5 full after pouring in 6 gallons of water it is 7/10 full how many gallons can a container hold

Answers

Answer 1
so the container was 2/5 full, then you dump in it 6 gallons and it went up to 7/10 full.

alrite, let's say the container can hold "x" gallons.

[tex]\bf \cfrac{2}{5}x+\cfrac{7}{10}x=6\implies \cfrac{(2\cdot 2)x+7x}{10}=6\implies \cfrac{4x+7x}{10}=6 \\\\\\ \cfrac{11x}{10}=6\implies 11x=60\implies x=\cfrac{60}{11}\implies x=5\frac{5}{11}[/tex]

A record company earns 25% of what a band collects in total sales. That
percentage is deducted from the band’s total sale

Answers

Let's assign variables for the unknowns. Let x be the amount of total sales while x is the amount of net sales. It is called net sales because a percentage is still deducted from it. The equation will be written as:

Net Sale = Total Sales - 0.25*Total Sales
y = x - 0.25x
y = 0.75x

Sierra has a total of 61 dimes and quarters in her piggybank. She has 3 more quarters than dimes. The coins have a total value $10.90. How many dimes and how many quarters does she have? [hint: use the decimal values of the c coins to write an equation.]

Answers

Since you have two unknowns, you must formulate 2 equations in order to solve the system. Let x be the numbers of dimes and y be the number of quarters. The equations are:

x + y = 61
y = x + 3

Since a dime is 1/10 of a dollar and a quarter is 1/4 of a dollar,
(1/10)x + (1/4)y = 10.90

We made 3 equations. The system is overspecified. Let's just use the first two equations and apply it to the third for verification.

x + (x + 3) = 61
Solving for x,
x = 29
y = 29 + 3 = 32

Verifying,
(1/10)(29) + (1/4)(32) = 10.90

Hence, there are 29 dimes and 32 quarters.

Mr. Abernathy bought a selection of wrenches for his shop and paid $78. He bought the same number of $1.50 and $2.50 wrenches, and half of that number of $4 wrenches. The number of $3 wrenches is one more than the number of $4 wrenches. How many of each did he buy?

Answers

x = # of $4 wrenches 
2x = # of $1.50 wrenches 
2x = # of $2.50 wrenches 
x+1 = # of $3 wrenches 

x(4.00) + 2x(1.50) + 2x(2.50) + (x+1)(3.00) = $78 
4x + 3x + 5x + 3x + 3 = 78 
15x + 3 = 78 
15x = 75 
x = 5 

Therefore, he has 5 $4 wrenches, 10 $1.50 wrenches, 10 $2.50 wrenches and 6 $3 wrenches. 
Verify: 
5($4) + 10($1.50) + 10($2.50) + 6($3) = $20 + $15 + $25 + $18 = $78

In this algebraic word problem, equations were set up based on the prices and relationships between the numbers of wrenches bought, leading to the discovery that Mr. Abernathy purchased 12 wrenches each at $1.50 and $2.50, 6 wrenches at $4, and 7 wrenches at $3 to make a total of $78.

Mr. Abernathy's allocation of his $78 budget on wrenches can be formulated as an algebraic word problem where we define the number of wrenches bought at each price point and the total cost. Let us denote x as the number of $1.50 wrenches and also the number of $2.50 wrenches, so the number of $4 wrenches is x/2 since it is half of that number.

The number of $3 wrenches is x/2 + 1 because it is one more than the number of $4 wrenches. The total amount spent can be expressed as the sum of the products of the numbers of wrenches and their respective prices, which must equal $78.

The equation for the total amount spent on wrenches is therefore:

1.50x + 2.50x + 4(x/2) + 3(x/2 + 1) = 78

Solving this equation for x gives us the number of $1.50 and $2.50 wrenches, and then we can infer the quantities of the $4 and $3 wrenches.

After simplifying the equation, we solve for x, and by plugging x back into the previous expressions, we find out that Mr. Abernathy bought 12 wrenches at $1.50 each, 12 wrenches at $2.50 each, 6 wrenches at $4 each, and 7 wrenches at $3 each.

In this problem, y = 1/(1 + c1e−x) is a one-parameter family of solutions of the first-order de y' = y − y2. find a solution of the first-order ivp consisting of this differential equation and the given initial condition. y(0) = − 1 8

Answers

The solution can be determined if we can specify the value of the arbitrary constant C₁. We do this by using the initial condition. When x=0, y is equal to -18. Substitute this to the general solution.

y = 1/(1 + C₁e⁻ˣ)
-18 = 1/(1 + C₁e⁰)
-18 = 1/(1+C₁)
C₁ = -1- 1/18 = -19/18

Therefore, the specific solution is:
y = 1/(1 - 19e⁻ˣ/18)

A new extended-life light bulb has an average service life of 750 hours, with a standard deviation of 50 hours. if the service life of these light bulbs approximates a normal distribution, about what percent of the distribution will be between 600 hours and 900 hours? 95% 68% 34% 99.7%

Answers

Approximately 99.7% of the light bulbs are expected to last between 600 and 900 hours, according to the empirical rule of normal distributions, as these values fall within +/- 3 standard deviations from the mean.

To determine what percent of the distribution of light bulbs will have a service life between 600 and 900 hours, we employ the empirical rule for normal distributions. If we know the mean (750 hours) and standard deviation (50 hours), we can calculate the number of standard deviations each of these values are from the mean:

(600 - 750) / 50 = -3 standard deviations (SD)

(900 - 750) / 50 = 3 standard deviations (SD)

According to the empirical rule (68-95-99.7 rule), approximately:

68% of the data falls within "+/- 1 SD"

95% of the data falls within "+/- 2 SD"

99.7% of the data falls within "+/- 3 SD"

Since 600 hours and 900 hours are three standard deviations away from the mean on either side, the percentage of light bulbs expected to last between these two values would be approximately 99.7%.

Find the values of x on the curve y = cos x 2 + sin x at which the tangent is horizontal. (let n be an integer. enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

Answers

Final answer:

To find the values of x on the given curve at which the tangent is horizontal, we need to find the points where the derivative of y with respect to x is equal to 0.

Explanation:

To find the values of x on the curve y = cos x^2 + sin x at which the tangent is horizontal, we need to find the points where the derivative of y with respect to x is equal to 0. The derivative of y is -2x sin x + cos x.

Setting the derivative equal to 0, we have -2x sin x + cos x = 0. Solving this equation will give us the values of x at which the tangent is horizontal.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to find exact solutions to this equation analytically. We can, however, solve it numerically using methods such as Newton's method or the bisection method.

Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.
2|2x−2|=16Divide both sides of the equation by 2.
|2x−2|=8Set 2x-2 equal to positive and negative 8.

x=5,−3
2|2x − 2| + 4 = 20.
2|2x − 2|  = 20.- 4
2|2x − 2| = 16
|2x − 2| =8

That means:
1st: 2x-2 = 8   and 2nd: 2x - 2 = -8
1st: 2x=10 and x = 5

2nd  2x-2=-8, 2x = -6 and x = -3

beth has a total of $6000 to invest, part at 6% simple interest and part at 8% simple interest. Her return for one year is $410. How much did she invest at each rate?

Answers

Since interest=investment*interest rate*time in years for simple interest, we know that there are 2 separate investments. If the amount invested at 6% simple interest is x dollars and the amount invested at 8% is y dollars, then we know that x+y=6000 since she spent all 6000 dollars on only 2 separate investments. Subtracting y from both sides, we get that 6000-y=x. In addition, we know that her interest for the 6% interest rate is x*0.06*1 as well as y*0.08*1 for the 8% simple interest. Since the total interest is 410$, we know that x*0.06*1+y*0.08*1=410. Since y=6000-x, we plug that in to get x*0.06+(6000-x)*0.08=410. Using the distributive property to expand, we get x*0.06+480-0.08x=410=-0.02*x+480. Subtracting 480 from both sides, we get -0.02*x=-70. After that, we can multiply both sides by -50 (since -0.02 times -50 is 1) to get x=3500=amount invested at 6%. Since the amount invested at 8% is 6000-x, that equals 6000-3500=2500

The expression 4.95+0.07x models A household monthly long distance charges where x represents the number of minutes of long-distance calls during the month what are the monthly charges for each number of long distance minutes

Answers

4.95 + 0.07x

The monthly charge is $ 4.95 ...and then there is the 7 cents per minute

The expression provided models the monthly long distance telephone charges, with a fixed fee of $4.95 plus $0.07 per minute of call time. To determine the monthly charge, multiply the number of minutes by $0.07 and add the result to the base charge of $4.95.

The given expression 4.95 + 0.07x represents a model for calculating a household's monthly long distance telephone charges, where x is the number of minutes of long-distance calls. To find the monthly charges for any number of minutes (x), we simply plug in the value of x and calculate the total cost.

If a household uses 0 minutes, the cost would be $4.95 (since 4.95 + 0.07(0) = 4.95).For 100 minutes of use, the cost would be $4.95 + (0.07 x 100) = $4.95 + $7.00 = $11.95.

The formula incorporates a fixed fee of $4.95, which we can see as the base charge regardless of usage, plus a variable component that depends on the number of minutes used (0.07 times the number of minutes).

This statement is true as both ends of the graph are approaching negative infinity and is resembles y=x^2 (an even degree function).

Second Statement: "The leading coefficient is negative."
This is also true has this parabola is faced downwards, meaning it is negative.  Also, a quadratic that has a maximum as its vertex is always going to be a negative function.
