Answer:
p = 1Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{2}{5} + p = \frac{4}{5} + \frac{3}{5} p[/tex]
Multiply through by the LCM
The LCM for the equation is 5
That's
[tex]5 \times \frac{2}{5} + 5p = 5 \times \frac{4}{5} + \frac{3}{5}p \times 5[/tex]
We have
2 + 5p = 4 + 3p
Group like terms
5p - 3p = 4 - 2
2p = 2
Divide both sides by 2
We have the final answer as
p = 1Hope this helps you
Find the maximum rate of change of f at the given point and the direction in which it occurs. f(x, y) = 8 sin(xy), (0, 9)
Answer:
The maximum rate of change of f at (0, 9) is 72 and the direction of the vector is [tex]\mathbf{\hat i}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
F(x,y) = 8 sin (xy) at (0,9)
The maximum rate of change f(x,y) occurs in the direction of gradient of f which can be estimated as follows;
[tex]\overline V f (x,y) = \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{\partial }{\partial x } (x,y) \hat i \ + \ \dfrac{\partial }{\partial y } (x,y) \hat j \end {bmatrix}[/tex]
[tex]\overline V f (x,y) = \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{\partial }{\partial x } (8 \ sin (xy) \hat i \ + \ \dfrac{\partial }{\partial y } (8 \ sin (xy) \hat j \end {bmatrix}[/tex]
[tex]\overline V f (x,y) = \begin {bmatrix} (8y \ cos (xy) \hat i \ + \ (8x \ cos (xy) \hat j \end {bmatrix}[/tex]
[tex]| \overline V f (0,9) |= \begin {vmatrix} 72 \hat i + 0 \end {vmatrix}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{| \overline V f (0,9) |= 72}[/tex]
We can conclude that the maximum rate of change of f at (0, 9) is 72 and the direction of the vector is [tex]\mathbf{\hat i}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:
Jamal has two investments, one in Company A, and another in Company B. Jamal purchased 300 shares in Company A at $1.45 per share. Since purchasing the shares, the price per share increased to $1.65 per share, after which Jamal decided to sell, realizing a profit. At the same time, Jamal purchased 200 shares in Company B at $1.20 per share. Since purchasing the shares, the share price fell to $1.10 per share, after which Jamal decided to sell the shares, suffering a loss. Calculate the total profit that Jamal received from his two investments.
Answer:
$20
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A:
Buy 300 shares at $1.45 per share.
Sell 300 shares at $1.65 per share.
Profit: ($1.65 - $1.45) * 300 = $60
Company B:
Buy 200 shares at $1.20 per share.
Sell 200 shares at $1.10 per share.
Loss: ($1.20 - $1.10) * 200 = $20
Net profit:
$40 - $20 = $20
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Profit on Company A =$(1.65−1.45)×300=$60.
Loss on Company B =$(1.20−1.10)×200=$20.
Therefore the total profit Jamal achieved was $60−$20=$40.

For the given data value, find the standard score and the percentile. A data value 0.6 standard deviations above the mean.
Answer:
The z-score is [tex]z = 0.6[/tex]
The percentile is [tex]p(Z < 0.6) = 72.57\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The data value is 0.6 standard deviations above the mean i.e [tex]x = \mu + 0.6 \sigma[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu[/tex] is the population mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation
Generally the z-score is mathematically represented as
[tex]z = \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma }[/tex]
=> [tex]z = \frac{(\mu + 0.6\sigma ) - \mu }{\sigma }[/tex]
=> [tex]z = 0.6[/tex]
The percentile is obtained from the z-table and the value is
[tex]p(Z < 0.6) = 0.7257[/tex]
=> [tex]p(Z < 0.6) = 72.57\%[/tex]
Find the area of the shaded regions.
Answer:
7 pi cm^2 or approximately 21.98 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the area of the large circle
A = pi r^2
A = pi 3^2
A = 9 pi
Then find the area of the small unshaded circle
A = pi r^2
A = pi (1)^2
A = pi
There are two of these circles
pi+ pi = 2 pi
Subtract the unshaded circles from the large circle
9pi - 2 pi
7 pi

Find the value of angle X. x = 40 x = 55 x = 109 x = 130 I will mark as Brainliest
Answer:
130 degree
Step-by-step explanation:
Interior angles of the triangle:
81, 49, (180-x)
and by sum of all angles of triangle is 180 degree,
therefore,
81 + 49 + 180 - x = 180
x = 130 degree
Starting at point A, a ship sails 18.9 km on a bearing of 190 degrees and then turns and sails 47.2km on a bearing of 318 degrees. Find the distance of the ship from point A. (Use trigonometry)
Answer:
Approximately 38.56 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
So, from the picture, we want to find x.
To do this, we can use the Law of Cosines. We simply need to find the angle between the two sides and then plug them into the Law of Cosines. First, the Law of Cosines is:
[tex]c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)\\[/tex]
The c in this equation is our x, and the C is the angle we need to find.
From the picture, you can see that angle C is the sum of the red and blue angles.
From a bearing of 190 degrees, we can determine that the red angle measures 10 degrees. Then by alternate interior angles, the other red angle must also measure 10 degrees.
From a bearing of 318 degrees, the remaining 48 degrees is outside the triangle. However, we have a complementary angle, so we can find the angle inside the triangle by subtracting in into 90. Therefore, the blue angle inside is 90-48=42 degrees.
Therefore, angle C is 42+10 which equals 52 degrees. Now we can plug this into our formula:
[tex]x^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)\\\\x^2=(18.9)^2+(47.2)^2-2(18.9)(47.2)\cos(52)\\x=\sqrt{(18.9)^2+(47.2)^2-2(18.9)(47.2)\cos(52)}\\\text{Use a Calculator}\\x\approx38.5566 \text{ km}[/tex]
find the value of X?
Answer:
x = 58
Step-by-step explanation:
The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles
90 = 32+x
Subtract 32 from each side
90-32 = x
58 =x
Best Buy is currently selling the latest model of the iPad
Pro for $549.99. Since you are an employee there, you
receive a 5% discount. How much will the iPad Pro cost
you if you use your employee discount (before taxes).
Answer:
$522.49
Step-by-step explanation: 549.99*.05=27.50 (discount)
549.99-27.50=$522.49
Answer:
$522.49
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the discount amount. You can do this by multiplying the original cost by the discount amount. A little trick for remembering to multiply instead of divide is to think "five percent of the original amount"
5% = 0.05
549.99 ⋅ 0.05 = 27.4995
That means the discount amount is $27.50
Subtract the discount amount from the original price
$549.99 - $27.50 = $522.49

Hey There!
Answer:
HCF = 9 (With the two numbers) - 18,9LCM = 3 (with the two numbers) - 6,9Step-by-step explanation:
HCF
If HCF is ''9'' that means that ''9'' is the divisible of two numbers.
So 18 and 19 can be divided by 9 and that's the highest divisible for both factors.
And always remeber the answer is a ''Prime factor.''

1. What is the difference between an exponential growth and exponential decay? 2. What is an example equation for expoential growth and an example equation for exponential decay?
Answer: see below
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of an exponential equation is: y = a(b)ˣ where
a is the initial valueb is the rateGrowth:
Exponential growth is where the final value (y) is greater than the initial value (a).
An example would be the spreading of a rumor:
You tell 1 person (a = 1) who then tells 2 people each minute (b = 2). How many people will they have spread the rumor to after 5 minutes (x = 5)?
y = 1(2)⁵
= 32
Decay:
Exponential decay is where the final value (y) is less than the initial value (a).
An example would be the decrease of bacteria in a person:
A person has 100 bacteria (a = 1) who takes a pill that is supposed to cut in half the number of bacteria each hour (b = 1/2). How many bacteria will the person have after 2 hours (x = 2)?
[tex]y=100\bigg(\dfrac{1}{2}\bigg)^2\\\\\\.\quad =100\bigg(\dfrac{1}{4}\bigg)\\\\\\.\quad = 25[/tex]

Find the equation of the line passing through the pair points (-8,6) (-9,-9). The equation of the line in the form is Ax+By=C.
Answer:
15x - y = - 126
Step-by-step explanation:
will make it simple and short
first we need to find the slope (m) first in order to get the equation
given: (-8,6) (-9,-9)
y2 - y1 -9 - 6
Slope = m = ----------- = ------------------ = 15
-x2 - x1 -9 - (-8)
so the equation of the line using point (-8,6) and slope 15 is y - 6 = 15( x + 8)
y - 6 = 15x + 120
using the form equation Ax + By = C, 15x - y = -120-6
therefore... 15x - y = - 126 is the answer
Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the Mean Value Theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x2 − 3x + 2, [0, 2]
Answer:
Yes , it satisfies the hypothesis and we can conclude that c = 1 is an element of [0,2]
c = 1 ∈ [0,2]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
[tex]f(x) = 4x^2 -3x + 2, [0, 2][/tex]
which is read as the function of x = 4x² - 3x + 2 along the interval [0,2]
Differentiating the function with respect to x is;
f(x) = 8x - 3
Using the Mean value theorem to see if the function satisfies it, we have:
[tex]f'c = \dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{f(2)-f(0)}{2-0}[/tex]
since the polynomial function is differentiated in [0,2]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(4(2)^2-3(2)+2)-(4(0)^2-3(0)+2)}{2-0}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(4(4)-3(2)+2)-(4(0)-3(0)+2)}{2-0}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(16-6+2)-(0-0+2)}{2-0}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{(12)-(2)}{2}[/tex]
[tex]8c -3 = \dfrac{10}{2}[/tex]
8c -3 = 5
8c = 5+3
8c = 8
c = 8/8
c = 1
Therefore, we can conclude that c = 1 is an element of [0,2]
c = 1 ∈ [0,2]
A caplet contains 325 mg of medication. How many caplets contain 975 mg of medication?
Answer:
3 capletsStep-by-step explanation:
Given 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication, to calculate the number of caplet 975mg of medication will contain, we will follow the steps below;
Let 1 caplet = 325 mg of medication
x caplet = 975 mg of medication
Cross multiply
325 * x = 1 * 975
325x = 975
Divide both sides by 325
325x/325 = 975/325
x = 3
Hence 3 caplets contains 975 mg of medication.
A triangle has vertices at (-4,-6),(3,3),(7,2). Rounded to two decimal places, which of the following is closest aporoximation of the perimeter of the triangle
Answer:
Perimeter= 29.12 unit
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the triangle is the length of the three sides if the triangle summef up together
Let's calculate the length of each side.
For (-4,-6),(3,3)
Length= √((3+4)²+(3+6)²)
Length= √((7)²+(9)²)
Length= √(49+81)
Length= √130
Length= 11.40
For (-4,-6),(7,2)
Length= √((7+4)²+(2+6)²)
Length= √((11)²+(8)²)
Length= √(121+64)
Length= √185
Length= 13.60
For (3,3),(7,2)
Length=√( (7-3)²+(2-3)²)
Length= √((4)²+(-1)²)
Length= √(16+1)
Length= √17
Length= 4.12
Perimeter= 4.12+13.60+11.40
Perimeter= 29.12 unit

Answer: [tex]4x^2-21x-2[/tex] .
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The difference of two trinomials is [tex]x^2 -10x + 2[/tex]. If one of the trinomials is [tex]3x^2 - 11x - 4[/tex].
Then, the other trinomial will be ([tex]3x^2 - 11x - 4[/tex] ) + ([tex]x^2 -10x + 2[/tex])
[tex]=3x^2-11x-4+x^2-10x+2\\\\=3x^2+x^2-11x-10x-4+2\\\\=4x^2-21x-2[/tex]
Hence, the other trinomial could be : [tex]4x^2-21x-2[/tex] .
g natasha is in a class of 30 students that selects 4 leaders. How many ways are there to select the 4 leaders so that natasha is one of the leaders
Answer:
3,654 different ways.Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 30 students in a class with natasha in the class and natasha is to select four leaders in the class of which she is already part of the selection, this means there are 3 more leaders needed to be selected among the remaining 29 students (natasha being an exception).
Using the combination formula since we are selecting and combination has to do with selection, If r object are to selected from n pool of objects, this can be done in nCr number of ways.
nCr = n!/(n-r)!r!
Sinca natasha is to select 3 more leaders from the remaining 29students, this can be done in 29C3 number of ways.
29C3 = 29!/(29-3)!3!
29C3 = 29!/(26!)!3!
29C3 = 29*28*27*26!/26!3*2
29C3 = 29*28*27/6
29C3 = 3,654 different ways.
This means that there are 3,654 different ways to select the 4 leaders so that natasha is one of the leaders
Find the equation of a parabola that has a vertex (3,5) and passes through the point (1,13).
Oy= -27 - 3)' +5
Oy=2(x + 3) - 5
Oy=2(0 - 3)' + 5
Oy= -3(2 – 3) + 5
PLEASE HELP ME!!
Answer:
y = 2(x - 3)² + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
Here (h, k) = (3, 5), thus
y = a(x - 3)² + 5
To find a substitute (1, 13) into the equation
13 = a(1 - 3)² + 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )
8 = 4a ( divide both sides by 4 )
a = 2, then
y = 2(x - 3)² + 5 ← equation of parabola in vertex form
Alex wants to sew a pillow in the shape below. How many square yards of fabric are needed to sew the pillow? Fabric is only sold in increments of ¼ yard.
The shape is missing, so i have attached it.
Answer:
2.6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the image attached, the diameter of the inner semi - circle is 0.5 yards while the length of each side of the pillow is 0.2 yards.
Thus, for us to find the length of the seam which is along the edges of the pillow, we will calculate the perimeter of the outer semicircle, then add the perimeter of the inner semicircle and also add the sides too.
Now, due to the fact that the length of the sides of the pillow are 0.2 yards each, the diameter of the outer circle would be;
0.5 + 0.2 + 0.2 = 0.9 yards. So, the perimeter of the outer semicircle is,
P0 = πd/2 = π × 0.9/2 =0.45π yds
The perimeter of the inner semicircle would be given as;
PI = πd/2 = π × 0.5/2 =0.25π yds.
Thus, we can calculate the total perimeter of the pillow as;
PT = P0 + PI + 0.2 + 0.2
PT = 0.45π + 0.25π + 0.2 + 0.2
PT ≈ 2.6 yards
Alex will need 2.6 yds
Answer:
0.5

First let's calculate the velocity of both trains.
The velocity formula is:
● V = d/t
d is the distance travelled and t is the tile needed to do it.
● V(x) = 100/5 = 20 miles per hour
● V(y) = 100/3 = 33.33.. wich is approximatively 33 after rounding to the nearest unit.
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
After calculateingboth velocities, Let's find when the trains meet.
First understand what does it mean matematically when both trains meet.
Go back to the representation and notice what happens when the trains meet.
Let t be that moment.
When x and y reches the meeting point at t, the sum of the distances they have travelled is equal to the total distance wich is 100 miles .
We khow that V = d/t so d = V×t
Let's find the expression of the distances both trains travelled when they have met each other.
● d = V(x) × t
● d' = V(y) × t
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
So the equation will be:
● V(x) × t + V(y) × t = 100
Factor using t
● t (V(x) + V(y) ) = 100
Replace V(x) and V(y) by their values
● t (20+33) = 100
● 53 t = 100
Divide both sides by 53
● 53t /53 = 100/53
● t = 1.88
■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■
Replace t in the expression of the distance that train x has travelled when meeting y.
● d = V(x) × t
● d = 20 × 1.88
● d = 37.6 wich is approximatively 37.5 miles
