The table shows how an elevator 500 feet above the ground is descending at a steady rate. Which equation represents the height, h(t), of the elevator in feet, as a function of t, the number of seconds during which it has been descending? h(t) = 5t + 500 h(t) = 5t – 500 h(t) = –5t + 500 h(t) = –5t – 500

Answers

Answer 1

This is the concept of algebra, given that the elevator is 500ft above the ground and it is descending at a steady rate of 5ft/sec. Then height h, at time t of the elevator movement can be modeled by the equation:
h(t)=-5t+500.
The correct answer is h(t)=-5t+500

From 1980 to 1990, the consumer price index (CPI) increased from 82.4 to 130.7. If a bottle of dish soap cost $0.74 in 1980 and the price of dish soap increased at the same rate as the CPI from 1980 to 1990, by approximately how much did the price of a bottle of dish soap increase from 1980 to 1990?

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that the price of a bottle of dish soap increased $0.43 from 1980 to 1990.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

The percent increase, as a proportion, of the CPI is given by:

P = 130.7/82.4 = 1.5862.

Hence, for the price of the bottle:

Pb = $0.74 x 1.5862 = $1.17.

The difference is:

1.17 - 0.74 = $0.43.

Use the half-angle identities to find the exact value of cos 15 degrees.

This is what I have so far:

cos15 degrees = cos1/2(30 degree) = sqrt (1+cos30)/2 = sqrt (1+ sqrt3/2)/ 2

But.. I don't understand how the cos30 turns into sqrt 3/2??

Answers

The question is: how does cos(30) = [tex] \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

Let's start by considering the equilateral triangle ABC in the diagram below. An equilateral triangle has equal size of angles, 60°, 60°, and 60°. Let's say the length of each side to be 2 units.

If we split this triangle into two congruent right-angled triangle, we will have the measurement of the perpendicular height to be √3 by Pythagoras theorem.

By trigonometry ratio we then have [tex]cos(30) = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} [/tex]

This ratio will always work for any right angle triangle with angles 90°, 60° and 30°

Going back to the original question:

cos(15°) = cos(30°) which is cos([tex] \frac{30}{2} [/tex])
let θ be 30° then cos(15°)=cos(θ/2)
by the trigonometry formula for half angle identity
cos(θ/2) = √(1+cosθ)/2
cos(15) = √(1+cos(30))/2
cos(15) = √(1+[tex] \frac{ \sqrt{3}} {2} [/tex]) / 2
cos(15) = [tex] \frac{ \sqrt{2+ \sqrt{3} } }{2} [/tex]

The cosine value of cos(15) is [tex]\sqrt[/tex](1 + [tex]\sqrt[/tex]3/2)/2

The trigonometry identity of half angles is given as:

cos([tex]\theta[/tex]/2) = [tex]\sqrt{[/tex](1 + cos([tex]\theta[/tex]))/2

Substitute 30 for [tex]\theta[/tex]

So, the equation becomes

cos(30/2) = [tex]\sqrt[/tex](1 + cos(30))/2

In trigonometry, we have:

cos(30) = [tex]\sqrt[/tex]3/2

So, we have:

cos(30/2) = [tex]\sqrt[/tex](1 + [tex]\sqrt[/tex]3/2)/2

Divide 30 by 2

cos(15) = [tex]\sqrt[/tex](1 + [tex]\sqrt[/tex]3/2)/2

Hence, the cosine value of cos(15) is [tex]\sqrt[/tex](1 + [tex]\sqrt[/tex]3/2)/2

A rectangular yard measuring 26ft by 40ft is bordered (and surrounded) by a fence. Inside, a walk that is 2ft wide goes all the way along the fence. Find the area of this walk. Be sure to include the correct unit in your answer.

Answers

In order to find the area of the walk, first you must find the area of the yard, then the area of the walk and yard combined.

The area of the yard (minus the walk) is simple to find. Just multiply 26 and 40, and you'd get 1,040 ft squared.

The area of the yard including the walk is a bit more complicated. You have to include add measurement of the walk to the measurements of the length and width of the yard. However, you must add it twice, considering it goes all the way around the yard. So, since the walk is 2 feet wide, you add it (twice) to 26 (26 + 4 = 30) and twice to 40 (40 + 4 = 44). Now, multiply the two new measurements. You now have 1,320 feet squared.

So now you have the combined area of the walk and yard, and the area of the yard without the walk. To find the area of the walk, you just subtract the area of the yard from the entire measurement of both. 1,320 square feet - 1,040 square feet is 280 square feet.

Determine whether each of the functions log(n + 1) and log(n2 + 1) is o(log n)

Answers

Assuming the order required is as n-> inf.

As n->inf, o(log(n+1)) -> o(log(n)) since the 1 is insignificant compared with n.

We can similarly drop the "1" as n-> inf, the expression becomes log(n^2+1) ->
log(n^2)=2log(n) which is still o(log(n)).

So yes, both are o(log(n)).

Note: you may have more offers of answers if you post similar questions in the computer and technology section.

Both functions log(n + 1) and log(n^2 + 1) are not o(log n). For large values of n, log(n + 1) is approximately equal to log n, and log(n^2 + 1) behaves like 2*log n, none of which grows strictly slower than log n.

To determine whether the functions log(n + 1) and log(n2 + 1) are o(log n), we'll use the definition of little-o notation. A function f(n) is said to be o(g(n)) if for any positive constant c > 0, there exists a threshold n0 such that for all n > n0, f(n) < c * g(n). In other words, f(n) grows slower than any constant multiple of g(n) as n approaches infinity.

Analysis for log(n + 1)

When n is very large, the +1 becomes negligible, and log(n + 1) behaves similarly to log n. Therefore,

log(n + 1) ≈ log n when n is large.

This implies that log(n + 1) is not o(log n) because it does not grow strictly slower than any multiple of log n.

Analysis for log(n2 + 1)

Using logarithm properties:

log(n2 + 1) < log(n2 + n2) = log(2n2) = log 2 + 2*log n.

As n grows, the constant term (log 2) becomes insignificant, and the function approaches the behavior of 2*log n. However, since there is a multiple of log n (which is 2*log n), this still means that log(n2 + 1) is not o(log n) because it grows faster, not slower, than log n.

Answers

1.
"The spending limit on John’s credit card is given by the function f(x)=15,000+1.5x"

means that if the monthly income of John is $ 5,000 ,he can spend at most

f(5,000)=15,000+1.5*5,000=15,000+ 7,500=22, 500 (dollars)

Or for example

if Johns monthly income is $8,000, then he can spend at most

f(8,000)=15,000+1.5*8,000=15,000+ 12,000=27,000 (dollars)

2.
Now, assume that the maximum amount that John can spend is y.

Then, y=15,000+1.5x

we can express x, the monthly income, in terms of y by isolating x:

y=15,000+1.5x

1.5x = y-15,000

[tex]x= \frac{y-15,000}{1.5} [/tex]

thus, in functional notation, x, the monthly income, is a function , say g, of variable y, the max amount:

[tex]x=g(y)=\frac{y-15,000}{1.5} [/tex]

since we generally use the letter x for the variable of a function, we write g again as:

[tex]g(x)=\frac{x-15,000}{1.5} [/tex]

for example :

[tex]g(50,000)=\frac{50,000-15,000}{1.5}= \frac{35,000}{1.5}= 23,333 [/tex]

tells us that if the maximum amount that John can spend is 50,000 $, then his monthly income is 23,333 $.

3.

If John's limit is $60,000, his monthly income is

[tex]g(60,000)=\frac{60,000-15,000}{1.5}= \frac{45,000}{1.5}=30,000 [/tex]

There are two aircraft carriers, A and B, and the carrier A is longer in length the carrier B. The total length of these two carriers is 4178 feet, while the difference of their lengths is only 14 feet.

Answers

Answer:

Length of carrier A = 2096 feet Length of carrier B=2082 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , two air craft carriers are A and B . The carrier A is longer than the carrier B in length.

Total length of two carriers =4178 feet

Difference of two carriers = 14 feet

Let

Length of carrier A =x feet

And

Legth of carrier B =y feet

According to question

The I equation is

x+y=4178

The II equation is

x-y= 14

Substitution method: In this method step I : we find value of x or y from the equation I

Step II: put the value of x or y in II equation then we get the value of another varaiable x or y

Step : Again put the obatined value of variable x or y from step II in equation I then we get value of other variable x or y .

By using substitution method ,

we find value of x from equation I

x= 4178-y

Now, put the value of x in equation II then we get

4178-y-y=14

4178-2y=14

4178-14=2y

4164=2y

[tex]y=\frac{4164}{2}[/tex]

y= 2082

Again , put the value of y in equation I

2082 +x=4178

x= 4178-2082

x=2096

Hence, the length of carrier A = 2096 feet

The length of carrier B= 2082 feet

Final answer:

To solve the problem, we set up two equations based on the given total length and the length difference of the two aircraft carriers. By solving these equations, we find that carrier A is 2096 feet long and carrier B is 2082 feet long.

Explanation:

The student's question involves solving a system of linear equations to find the lengths of two aircraft carriers, A and B. Given that the total length is 4178 feet and the length difference is 14 feet, we can set up the following equations:

Equation 1: A + B = 4178

Equation 2: A - B = 14

To solve for A and B, we can add the two equations together to eliminate B.

This gives us 2A = 4192, hence A = 2096 feet.

Substituting A back into one of the equations, we find B = 2082 feet.

Therefore, carrier A is 2096 feet long and carrier B is 2082 feet long.

[tex]\bf \begin{bmatrix} 4&-1&\\ &&\boxed{0}\\ 1&-3& \end{bmatrix}\implies -0 \begin{bmatrix} 4&-1\\1&-3 \end{bmatrix}\implies -0[(-12)-(-1)]\implies 0\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ \begin{bmatrix} 4&-1&\\ 6&-1&\\ &&\boxed{4} \end{bmatrix}\implies +4 \begin{bmatrix} 4&-1\\6&-1 \end{bmatrix}\implies +4[(-4)-(-6)] \\\\\\ +4[2]\implies 8\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\[/tex]

so our determinant comes down to the sum of those three products... so -34 -0 + 8.

and surely you know how much that is.

Final answer:

The question is about finding the value of a determinant for matrices, a fundamental concept in Mathematics, especially linear algebra. For 2 × 2 matrices, the determinant calculation is straightforward and essential for various applications.

Explanation:

The subject of this question is clearly Mathematics, specifically it pertains to linear algebra and the concept of determinants. The task involves finding the value of a determinant for a given matrix. For a 2 × 2 matrix, the determinant is found using a simple formula: if the matrix is given by

\[\begin{pmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{pmatrix}\]

then the determinant is calculated as $ad - bc$. Additionally, the determinant provides important information about the matrix, such as whether the matrix is invertible and the product of its eigenvalues.

To understand determinants for larger matrices, a recursive approach is often used, breaking down the determinant into smaller matrices until 2 × 2 matrices are reached, where the simple formula can be applied. Also of note is that the determinant of the product of two matrices is equal to the product of their determinants (det(AB) = det(A)det(B)).

This fundamental concept is crucial for many applications in mathematics, including solving systems of linear equations, finding eigenvalues, and understanding linear transformations.

Malia is observing the velocity of a cyclist at different times. After two hours, the velocity of the cyclist is 15 km/h. After five hours, the velocity of the cyclist is 12 km/h.
Part A: Write an equation in two variables in the standard form that can be used to describe the velocity of the cyclist at different times. Show your work and define the variables used. (5 points)
Part B: How can you graph the equations obtained in Part A for the first 12 hours? (5 points)

Answers

We must to remember what is the standard form of equation of straight line. It looks like that:
Ax+By+C=0. A,B and C it's coefcients; x and y - it's variables.A and B must not be equal to zero at same time.This condition can be writen like this: (A^2+B^2) not equal to zero.
We know that x=2 ("after two hours") and y=15 ("velocity of the cyclist is 15 km/h")
AND
x=5 ("after five hours") and y=12 ("velocity of the cyclist is 12 km/h").
Lets look at standart form and give the values on variables.1. 2A+15B+C=0

2. 5A+12B+C=0and it is system.let's subtract the bottom equation from the top -3A+3B=03A=3BA=B.So we can choose any value for A and B, just A=B.I choose for A=B=1.Our equation takes the formx+y+C=0
x+y=-C
and if we giving the value to variables, we can find coefficients "C".
5+12=-CC=-17.
Standart form is:x+y-17=0. ---- answer for Part A.
and the graph of this function is a straight line.For find the answer to Part B, we need to prolong our straight line into the perpendicular vertical line wich contain x=12.
In the point of the intersection of the lines, you must to turn at right angle to axis OY and to come at the value in the axis OY, it's will be the velocity after 12 hours.
