If a < 0 and b > 0, then which of the following is true?
Select one:
a. a + b > 0
b. a + b < 0
c.
a + b = 0
d.
The relationship between a and b cannot be determined.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. The relationship between a and b cannot be determined.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a < 0[/tex]

[tex]b > 0[/tex]

Required

Which is true

To do this, we test each of the options using assumed values

[tex]a + b > 0[/tex]

Let:

[tex]a = -5[/tex]       [tex]b= 1[/tex]

So:

[tex]-5 + 1 > 0[/tex]

[tex]-4 > 0[/tex] --- false

[tex]a + b < 0[/tex]

Let:

[tex]a = -5[/tex]       [tex]b= 7[/tex]

So:

[tex]-5 + 7 < 0[/tex]

[tex]2 < 0[/tex] --- false

[tex]a + b = 0[/tex]

Let:

[tex]a = -5[/tex]       [tex]b= 7[/tex]

So:

[tex]-5 + 7 = 0[/tex]

[tex]2 = 0[/tex] --- false

Hence, the relationship is not specific and cannot be determined

The value of a car will “depreciate” over time. For example, a car that was worth $24 000 when it was new, is being sold for $13 500 three years later. Determine the annual depreciation rate on this car. Express your final answer as a percent, rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:

13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000

13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000

X = 21.14%

Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Answer:

There are 6 boys in group.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of arrangement of 4 boys = 12 times the number of arrangement of 2 boys.

So, Let the number of boys in the group be 'x'.

So, Number of boys in the group will be

\begin{gathered}x=\frac{12\times 2}{4}\\\\x=\frac{24}{4}\\\\x=6\end{gathered}

x=

Answer:

  33.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.

  1.40 × purchase price = £42

  purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30

The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...

  £30 × 40% = £12

The purchase price of the skirt is ...

  total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27

The profit on the skirt is ...

  total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9

Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...

  skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%

The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.


One number is 2 less than a second number.
Twice the second number is 16 more than 4 times
the first. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Answer:

x = one number

y = second number

Where,

x = y - 3

2y = 4x - 16

Multiply the first equation by 2 and substitute the second equation into it.

2(x=y-3) : 2x = 2y - 6

 

2x = (4x - 16) - 6

Combine like terms

2x = 4x - 22

2x - 2x + 22 = 4x - 2x -22 + 22

22 = 2x

22/2 = 2x/2

Answer:

  A)  (2, ∞) . . . . or C) (-∞, 0) ∪ (2, ∞) if you don't think about it

Step-by-step explanation:

We want ...

  C(x)/x < 100

  (20x +160)/x < 100

  20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left

  160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20

  160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0

  x > 2 . . . . . . simplify

In interval notation this is (2, ∞).   matches choice A

__

Technically (mathematically), we also have ...

  160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0

which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).

If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.

_____

Comment on the solution

Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.

A set of solar batteries is used in a research satellite. The satellite can run on only one battery, but it runs best if more than one battery is used. The variance σ2 of lifetimes of these batteries affects the useful lifetime of the satellite before it goes dead. If the variance is too small, all the batteries will tend to die at once. Why? If the variance is too large, the batteries are simply not dependable. Why? Engineers have determined that a variance of σ2 = 23 months (squared) is most desirable for these batteries. A random sample of 30 batteries gave a sample variance of 16.3 months (squared). Using a 0.05 level of significance, test the claim that σ2 = 23 against the claim that σ2 is different from 23.

Answers

Answer:

(- 6, 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Under a reflection in the y- axis

a point (x, y ) → (- x, y ) , then

A' (6, 8 ) → A (- 6, 8 )

Then the pre-image of A' is A (- 6, 8 )

The pre-image of vertex A' would be (-8, 6) on the graph was created by a reflection across the y- axis

The pre-image of vertex A' after a reflection across the y-axis can be found by taking the corresponding point on the other side of the y-axis.

If the image is shown on the graph, and vertex A' is located at (8, 6), then the pre-image of vertex A' would be the point on the opposite side of the y-axis, which has the same x-coordinate but the opposite sign for the y-coordinate.

So, the pre-image of vertex A' would be (-8, 6).

To the nearest 100th feet, find the volume of a hollow cylinder having inner radius =150 in, outer radius= 170 in and the height = 220 in

Answers

Answer:

R1 = 150 in = 12.5 ft

R2 = 170 in = 14.167 ft

H = 220 in = 18.333 ft

Volume of solid cylinder = Pi * R^2 * H

So the volume of a hollow cylinder must be V = Pi * H * (R2^2 - R1^2)

V = 3.142 * 18.33 * (14.17^2 - 12.5^2) = 2565 ft^3

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

Additional comment

This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 129600 J

(b) 81000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.

Force, F = 500 N

distance, d = 324 m

(a) friction force, f = 100 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) x d

W = (500 - 100) x 324

W = 129600 J

(b) Friction, f = 250 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) d

W = (500 - 250) x 324

W = 81000 J

Not that I'm trying to make excuses for myself, it's been really hard to sit down and write, as I've been moving around so much. Since we last saw each other I've unpacked my bags in four different cities.I went from London to Prague to set up a new regional office there. You know I'd always wanted to go, but maybe I was imagining Prague in spring when I used to talk about that. Winter was really hard, with minus 15 degrees in the mornings and dark really early in the evening. But at least it was blue skies and white snow and not days on end of grey skies and rain, like at home.From there I was on another three-month mission to oversee the set-up of the office in New York. Loved, loved, loved New York! It's like being in one big TV show, as everywhere looks just a little bit familiar. I did every tourist thing you can think of when I wasn't working, and must have spent most of my salary on eating out. It was really hard to leave for the next job, especially as I kind of met someone (!) More about Michael later ...So then I was posted to LA, which felt like a whole other country compared with the East Coast. I could definitely get used to that kind of outdoor, beach lifestyle, but I didn't spend as much time getting to know California as I could have because I was flying back to see Michael every other weekend. He came to see me when he could, but his job means he's often working at weekends, so he couldn't make the flight very often. Those three months flew by and then I was off again, to Frankfurt, which is where I am now. And ... so is Michael! He got a month off work and we're trying to work out how we can be in the same place at the same time for a while. We figure the first step in that direction is getting married, which is also why I wanted to write I can't get married without my oldest friend there! The wedding's going to be at home in London in September and I hope you can come!Anyway, tell me all your news and I promise not to leave it so long this time!
