prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

By these examples you are able to see that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

For examples,

Let's consider squares of 3, 11, 25, 37 and 131.

[tex] {3}^{2} = 9[/tex]

8 is a multiple of 4, and 9 is more than 8.

[tex] {11}^{2} = 121[/tex]

120 is a multiple of 4 and 121 is one more than it.

[tex] {25}^{2} = 625[/tex]

624 is a multiple of 4 and 625 is one more than it.

[tex] {37}^{2} = 1369[/tex]

1368 is a multiple of 4 and 1369 is one more than 1368.

[tex] {131}^{2} = 17161[/tex]

17160 is a multiple of 4.

SCALCET8 4.7.011. Consider the following problem: A farmer with 950 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four pens with fencing parallel to one side of the rectangle. What is the largest possible total area of the four pens

Answers

Answer:

For any rectangle, the one with the largest area will be the one whose dimensions are as close to a square as possible.

However, the dividers change the process to find this maximum somewhat.

Letting x represent two sides of the rectangle and the 3 parallel dividers, we have 2x+3x = 5x.

Letting y represent the other two sides of the rectangle, we have 2y.

We know that 2y + 5x = 750.

Solving for y, we first subtract 5x from each side:

2y + 5x - 5x = 750 - 5x

2y = - 5x + 750

Next we divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = - 5x/2 + 750/2

y = - 2.5x + 375

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by

A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width. In this rectangle, one dimension is x and the other is y, making the area

A = xy

Substituting the expression for y we just found above, we have

A = x (-2.5x+375)

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

This is a quadratic equation, with values a = - 2.5, b = 375 and c = 0.

To find the maximum, we will find the vertex. First we find the axis of symmetry, using the equation

x = - b/2a

x = - 375/2 (-2.5) = - 375/-5 = 75

Substituting this back in place of every x in our area equation, we have

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

A = - 2.5 (75) ² + 375 (75) = - 2.5 (5625) + 28125 = - 14062.5 + 28125 = 14062.5

5x + y + 3 = 0​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-5x-3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0).

To solve for the equation of the line, we would need to:

Find the point of intersection between the two given linesUse the point of intersection and the given point (-1,2) to solve for the slope of the lineUse a point and the slope in [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] to solve for the y-interceptPlug the slope and the y-intercept back into [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] to achieve the final equation

1) Find the point of intersection between the two given lines

[tex]2x - 3y + 11 = 0[/tex]

[tex]5x + y + 3 = 0[/tex]

Isolate y in the second equation:

[tex]y=-5x-3[/tex]

Plug y into the first equation:

[tex]2x - 3(-5x-3) + 11 = 0\\2x +15x+9 + 11 = 0\\17x+20 = 0\\17x =-20\\\\x=\displaystyle-\frac{20}{17}[/tex]

Plug x into the second equation to solve for y:

[tex]5x + y + 3 = 0\\\\5(\displaystyle-\frac{20}{17}) + y + 3 = 0\\\\\displaystyle-\frac{100}{17} + y + 3 = 0[/tex]

Isolate y:

[tex]y = -3+\displaystyle\frac{100}{17}\\y = \frac{49}{17}[/tex]

Therefore, the point of intersection between the two given lines is [tex](\displaystyle-\frac{20}{17},\frac{49}{17})[/tex].

2) Determine the slope (m)

[tex]m=\displaystyle \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex] where two points that fall on the line are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]

Plug in the two points [tex](\displaystyle-\frac{20}{17},\frac{49}{17})[/tex] and (-1,2):

[tex]m=\displaystyle \frac{\displaystyle\frac{49}{17}-2}{\displaystyle-\frac{20}{17}-(-1)}\\\\\\m=\displaystyle \frac{\displaystyle\frac{15}{17} }{\displaystyle-\frac{20}{17}+1}\\\\\\m=\displaystyle \frac{\displaystyle\frac{15}{17} }{\displaystyle-\frac{3}{17} }\\\\\\m=-5[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the line is -5. Plug this into [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=-5x+b[/tex]

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

[tex]y=-5x+b[/tex]

Plug in the point (-1,2) and solve for b:

[tex]2=-5(-1)+b\\2=5+b\\-3=b[/tex]

Therefore, the y-intercept is -3. Plug this back into [tex]y=-5x+b[/tex]:

[tex]y=-5x+(-3)\\y=-5x-3[/tex]

The admission fee at amusement park is $1.50 for children and $4 for adults on a certain day 355 ppl entered the park and the admission fees collected a total 970,000 dollars how many children and how many adults were admitted?

Answers

Answer:

180 children and 175 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let it be that the amount of children who visited the park that day was x, the rest was adults. It means the quantity of adults equals 355-x.

The payment from the children is 1.5*x (because each children payed 1.5 dollars, the amount of money from children is the fee from one child multiplied by the quantity of children). The money earned by the park's owners from adults are equal to the fee from one adult multiplied by the quantity  4* (355-x)= 1420 -4x

If we add the money from chilren and adults we get the summary profit of park (it is equal to 970 dollars)

1.5x+ 1420-4x= 970

1420-2.5x= 970

x=180- children

355-180=175adults

Answer:

Online Poll

We can conclude that

c. most Americans prefer Clay Aiken out of those former contestants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample responses received from the poll = 941,434

Proportion of voters for Clay Aiken = 55%

Computed proportion of voters for the other 5 contestants = 45% (100% - 55%)

This gives an average of 7.5% (45%/5) for the other 5 contestants.

Therefore, the conclusion is that "most Americans prefer Clay Aiken out of those former contestants" in the American Idol contest.

10,000 centimeters per meter

Answers

Answer: there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. Meters to centimeters multiply by 100. Centimeters to meters divide by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meters to centimeters multiply by 100

(10,000 m ) (100) = 1,000,000 cm.

(100 m) (100) = 10,000 cm.

Centimeters to meters divide by 100.

100 cm / 100 = 1 meter

10,000 cm /100 = 100 m

lim ₓ→∞ (x+4/x-1)∧x+4​

Answers

It looks like the limit you want to find is

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty} \left(\frac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4}[/tex]

One way to compute this limit relies only on the definition of the constant e and some basic properties of limits. In particular,

[tex]e = \displaystyle\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(1+\frac1x\right)^x[/tex]

The idea is to recast the given limit to make it resemble this definition. The definition contains a fraction with x as its denominator. If we expand the fraction in the given limand, we have a denominator of x - 1. So we rewrite everything in terms of x - 1 :

[tex]\left(\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = \left(\dfrac{x-1+5}{x-1}\right)^{x-1+5} \\\\ = \left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^{x-1+5} \\\\ =\left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^{x-1} \times \left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^5[/tex]

Now in the first term of this product, we substitute y = (x - 1)/5 :

[tex]\left(\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = \left(1+\dfrac1y\right)^{5y} \times \left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^5[/tex]

Then use a property of exponentiation to write this as

[tex]\left(\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = \left(\left(1+\dfrac1y\right)^y\right)^5 \times \left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^5[/tex]

In terms of end behavior, (x - 1)/5 and x behave the same way because they both approach ∞ at a proportional rate, so we can essentially y with x. Then by applying some limit properties, we have

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty} \left(\frac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = \lim_{x\to\infty} \left(\left(1+\dfrac1x\right)^x\right)^5 \times \left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^5 \\\\ = \lim_{x\to\infty}\left(\left(1+\dfrac1x\right)^x\right)^5 \times \lim_{x\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)^5 \\\\ =\left(\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac1x\right)^x\right)^5 \times \left(\lim_{x\to\infty}\left(1+\dfrac5{x-1}\right)\right)^5[/tex]

By definition, the first limit is e and the second limit is 1, so that

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty} \left(\frac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = e^5\times1^5 = \boxed{e^5}[/tex]

You can also use L'Hopital's rule to compute it. Evaluating the limit "directly" at infinity results in the indeterminate form [tex]1^\infty[/tex].

Rewrite

[tex]\left(\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = \exp\left((x+4)\ln\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right)[/tex]

so that

[tex]\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty} \left(\frac{x+4}{x-1}\right)^{x+4} = \lim_{x\to\infty}\exp\left((x+4)\ln\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right) \\\\ = \exp\left(\lim_{x\to\infty}(x+4)\ln\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right) \\\\ =\exp\left(\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{\ln\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}}{\dfrac1{x+4}}\right)[/tex]

and now evaluating "directly" at infinity gives the indeterminate form 0/0, making the limit ready for L'Hopital's rule.

We have

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\ln\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}\right] = -\dfrac5{(x-1)^2}\times\dfrac{1}{\frac{x+4}{x-1}} = -\dfrac5{(x-1)(x+4)}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\left[\dfrac1{x+4}\right]=-\dfrac1{(x+4)^2}[/tex]

and so

[tex]\displaystyle \exp\left(\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{\ln\dfrac{x+4}{x-1}}{\dfrac1{x+4}}\right) = \exp\left(\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{-\dfrac5{(x-1)(x+4)}}{-\dfrac1{(x+4)^2}}\right) \\\\ = \exp\left(5\lim_{x\to\infty}\frac{x+4}{x-1}\right) \\\\ = \exp(5) = \boxed{e^5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{122}{10}*(-\frac{10}{61} )[/tex]Let's start by calculating their values one by one, and then we can match them.

Starting with [tex]-2\frac{2}{5} \div\frac{4}{5}[/tex], we can simplify this more by adding [tex]2*5[/tex] to the nominator. That gives us [tex]-\frac{12}{5} \div\frac{4}{5}[/tex]. Now we can apply the Keep-Change-Flip rule. Keep the first fraction as it is, change the division sign into multiplication, flip the second fraction. [tex]-\frac{12}{5} *\frac{5}{4}[/tex]. We apply fraction multiplication which is simply multiplying the first nominator by the first nominator and the same for the dominator.  and the result is [tex]-\frac{60}{20}[/tex] or simply -3.

[tex]-2\frac{2}{5} \div\frac{4}{5} = -3[/tex]

Now, we calculate the second one, [tex]-12.2\div(-6.1)[/tex]. This can be re-written as [tex]-\frac{122}{10}\div(-\frac{61}{10} )[/tex]. As we did in the previous part we apply the  Keep-Change-Flip, this will give us [tex]-\frac{122}{10}*(-\frac{10}{61} )[/tex]. Do the multiplication and the result will be [tex]\frac{1220}{610}[/tex], we can divide both the nominator and dominator by 10 which will result [tex]\frac{122}{61}[/tex] and finally we know that [tex]61*2=122[/tex] and we can divide both of them again by 61 which will result [tex]\frac{2}{1} =2[/tex]

[tex]-12.2\div(-6.1)=2[/tex]

You can try solving the rest by yourself but here's is the final answer for them both:

2000 ml : 24 hours

x ml : 1 hour

Next you cross multiply : 2000 × 1 hour = 2000 and 24 × x = 24x

Then you divide:

[tex]\frac{24x}{24} : \frac{2000}{24}[/tex]

x : 83.3333333...

When this is rounded off it is equal to 83.33

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle a = \frac{1}{3} \text{ and } b = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the definition of inverse functions. Recall that if two functions, f and g are inverses, then:

[tex]\displaystyle f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x[/tex]

So, we can let j be the inverse function of h.

Function h is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle h(x) = y = 3x-2[/tex]

Find its inverse. Flip variables:

[tex]x = 3y - 2[/tex]

Solve for y. Add:

[tex]\displaystyle x + 2 = 3y[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle h^{-1}(x) = j(x) = \frac{x+2}{3} = \frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, a = 1/3 and b = 2/3.

We can verify our solution:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} h(j(x)) &= h\left( \frac{1}{3} x + \frac{2}{3}\right) \\ \\ &= 3\left(\frac{1}{3}x + \frac{2}{3}\right) -2 \\ \\ &= (x + 2) -2 \\ \\ &= x \end{aligned}[/tex]

And:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} j(h(x)) &= j\left(3x-2\right) \\ \\ &= \frac{1}{3}\left( 3x-2\right)+\frac{2}{3} \\ \\ &=\left( x- \frac{2}{3}\right) + \frac{2}{3} \\ \\ &= x \stackrel{\checkmark}{=} x\end{aligned}[/tex]
