Answer:
x = 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x^3=\dfrac{0.008}{0.125}=\dfrac{8}{125}=\dfrac{2^3}{5^3}\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{2^3}{5^3}}=\dfrac{\sqrt[3]{2^3}}{\sqrt[3]{5^3}}=\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]
The value of x is 2/5.
Answer:
x = 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 = .008/.125
Take the cubed root on each side
x^3 ^ (1/3) = (.008/.125) ^ 1/3
Using ( a/b) ^c = a^c / b^c and a^b^c = a^ (b*c)
x^(3 *(1/3)) = (.008) ^ 1/3 / (.125) ^ 1/3
x = (.008) ^ 1/3 / (.125) ^ 1/3
x = .2/.5

What is 9.36•10~4 in standard form
The number 9.36×10-4 in standard form is 0.000936. You convert from scientific notation to standard form by moving the decimal point to the left by the number equivalent to the exponent when the exponent is negative.
Explanation:
When asked what is 9.36×10-4 in standard form, we are being asked to convert a number from scientific notation to its regular number format. Scientific notation is a method of writing numbers that are too big or too small to be conveniently written in decimal form. To convert this to standard form, we move the decimal point to the left if the exponent is negative (or to the right if the exponent is positive) as many times as the value of the exponent.
In this case, we have a negative exponent (-4), so we move the decimal four places to the left:
9.36 -> 0.936 -> 0.0936 -> 0.00936 -> 0.000936
Therefore, 9.36×10-4 in standard form is 0.000936.

A mirror with a parabolic cross section is used to collect sunlight on a pipe located at the focus of the mirror. The pipe is located 7 inches from the vertex of the mirror. Write an equation of the parabola that models the cross section of the mirror. Assume that the parabola opens upward.
A y=1/28x^2
B y=1/42x^2
C y=1/35x^2
D y=1/49x^2
Answer:
[tex]y= \frac{1}{28} x^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A mirror with a parabolic cross section is used to collect sunlight on a pipe located at the focus of the mirror.
The pipe is located 7 inches from the vertex of the mirror.
The parabola is open upwards . the vertex of the parabola is (0,0)
and pipe is located 7 inches from the vertex (0,0)
7 inches is the focus of the mirror
The distance between the vertex and the focus = 7
Since parabola is upwards and vertex is (0,0) we use formula
[tex]4py = x^2[/tex]
Where p is the distance between the vertex and focus
p = 7 we know
[tex]4*7*y = x^2[/tex]
[tex]28y = x^2[/tex]
Now isolate y by dividing 28 on both sides
[tex]y= \frac{1}{28} x^2[/tex]
Choose the expression that mathematically represents the difference between ‘3 times a number’ and the quantity ‘5 times another number less 7’
a. 3x − (7 − 5x)
b. 3x − (5y − 7)
c. 3x − (5x − 7)
d. 3x − (7 − 5y)
Answer:
b. 3x - (5y -7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent "a number". Let y represent "another number."
The "3 times a number" is represented by 3x.
And "5 times another number less 7" is represented by 5y -7.
The difference between these quantities is the second subtracted from the first:
... 3x - (5y -7) . . . . matches selection b.
Find the rational roots of x^4 + 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0
0, 1
1, 2
1, -1
-1, 2
Answer:
C. 1,-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the coefficient is 0 so x=1 is a root and (x-1) as a factor
so x^4+3x^3+3x^2-3X-4=(x-1)(x^3+4x^2+7x+4)
and the root of that is x=-1 and the factor is (x+1)
SO the answer is: x=1 and x=-1
Answer: -1, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the polynomial equation x^4 + 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x - 4 = 0, do a quick test of polynomials using 1 and -1 in place of x.
This gives the sum of coefficients as zero
Testing with 1: 1 + 3 + 3 - 3 - 4 = 0
Testing with -1: 1 + (-3) + 3 - (-3) - 4
= 1 - 3 + 3 + 3 - 4 = 0
This gives that both (x + 1) and (x - 1) are roots.
(x + 1)(x - 1) = x² - 1 {difference of two squares}
Dividing the polynomial x^4 + 3x^3 + 3x^2 - 3x - 4 by (x² - 1) results in x² - 3x + 4 as quotient. Factorizing this result would give complex roots.
Therefore, x² - 1 = 0
x² = 1
Taking square of both sides of the equation gives
x = ± 1
1 and -1 are the rational roots to the polynomial.

The eleventh-degree polynomial (x + 3)4(x – 2)7 has the same zeroes as did the quadratic, but in this case, the x = –3 solution has multiplicity 4 because the factor (x + 3) occurs four times (that is, the factor is raised to the fourth power) and the x = 2 solution has multiplicity 7 because the factor (x – 2) occurs ...

A scientist is studying bacteria and records the number of bacteria over time. The scientists determines that the function N(t)=300(1.30) models the number of bacteria, N after t hours.
Which statement correctly interprets this model.
A. The number of bacteria is originally 300 and increases by 30%
B. The number of bacteria is originally 300 and decreases by 30 every hour
C. The number of bacteria is originally 30 and increases by 300 every hour
D. The number of bacteria is originally 30 and decreases by 300% every hour
Answer:
(A) The number of bacteria is originally 300 and increases by 30% every hour
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming the function should actually read:
[tex]N(t)=300\cdot 1.30^t[/tex]
(i.e., there should be a "t" in the exponent. if this is not the case please disregard my answer).
According to the above exponential function, the initial amount 300 grows as (1+0.3)*300=300+0.3*300. In other words it increases by 30% every hour (t).
Your answer choice (A) is likely a candidate, except I am missing "every hour" at the end (again, am assuming this was omitted by mistake)
Final answer:
The function N(t)=300(1.30)^t represents the bacterial growth model where the initial amount of bacteria is 300 and increases by 30% every hour.
Explanation:
Looking at the function N(t)=300(1.30)^t, this model describes the number of bacteria, N, after t hours. The base number, 300, indicates the initial quantity of bacteria, while the term (1.30)^t suggests that the population changes by a factor of 1.30 each hour, reflecting a 30% increase in the number of bacteria each hour. Therefore, the correct statement that interprets this model is:
A. The number of bacteria is originally 300 and increases by 30% each hour.
Directed line segment has endpoints P(– 8, – 4) and Q(4, 12). Determine the point that partitions the directed line segment in a ratio of 3:1.
Answer:
Point (1,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use segment formula to find the coordinates of point that will partition our line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.
When a point divides any segment internally in the ratio m:n, the formula is:
[tex][x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y= \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}][/tex]
Let us substitute coordinates of point P and Q as:
[tex]x_1=-8[/tex],
[tex]y_1=-4[/tex]
[tex]x_2=4[/tex]
[tex]y_2=12[/tex]
[tex]m=3[/tex]
[tex]n=1[/tex]
[tex][x=\frac{(3*4)+(1*-8)}{3+1},y=\frac{(3*12)+(1*-4)}{3+1}][/tex]
[tex][x=\frac{12-8}{4},y=\frac{36-4}{4}][/tex]
[tex][x=\frac{4}{4},y=\frac{32}{4}][/tex]
[tex][x=1,y=8][/tex]
Therefore, point (1,8) will partition the directed line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

Why is partitioning a directed line segment into a ratio of 1:3 not the same as finding 1/3 the length of the directed line segment?
The ratio given is part to whole, but fractions compare part to part.
The ratio given is part to part. The total number of parts in the whole is 3 – 1 = 2.
The ratio given is part to part. The total number of parts in the whole is 1 + 3 = 4.
The ratio given is part to whole, but the associated fraction is 1/3.
Answer:
The ratio given is part to part. The total number of parts in the whole is 1 + 3 = 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to call the numbers in the ratio 1 : 3 "ratio units".
That is, the short length is 1 ratio unit long, and the longer length is 3 ratio units long. The total (whole) length is 1+3 = 4 ratio units long. Then the short length (1 ratio unit) is 1/4 of the whole length (4 ratio units).

Answer:
42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
76.8% × ? = 32.64
? =
32.64 ÷ 76.8% =
32.64 ÷ (76.8 ÷ 100) =
(100 × 32.64) ÷ 76.8 =
3,264 ÷ 76.8 =
42.5
To solve for the number that 76.8% of it equals 32.64, you can write an equation and solve for x: 0.768 * x = 32.64. Dividing both sides by 0.768 gives x = 42.5.
Explanation:The question asks about a percentage of a number, which is a math concept. If 76.8% of a number equals 32.64, you can use basic algebra to find that number. Let's call it 'x'. You can write it as an equation: 0.768 * x = 32.64. Solving for x, divide both sides of the equation by 0.768.
x = 32.64 /0.768
When you perform this calculation, you'll find that x is approximately 42.5. So, 76.8% of 42.5 is approximately 32.64.

A group of hikers buys 8 bags of mixed nuts. Each bag contains 3 1/2 cups of nixed nuts. The mixed nuts are shared evenly among 12 hikers. How many cups of mixed nuts will each hiker receive?
Answer:
Each hiker gets [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex] cups of mixed nuts.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the total amount of cups by multiplying the number of bags with the amount of cups in each bag:
8 * 3.5 = 28
Now, we divide this by 12 to find the amount of cups per hiker:
28 ÷ 12 = [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex] or 2.3333
So each hiker gets [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex] cups of mixed nuts.
Jason jumps from a plane at an altitude of 1000 m. His parachute opens after 10 seconds. The graph shows the relationship between the distance traveled and time. How far does he fall in 1 minute and 20 seconds? Continuous graph with the y axis labeled Distance (m) and the x axis labeled Time, min. The function consists of 3 lines, the first is almost vertical with a positive slope connecting the points 0,0, to approximately 1 of 6, 250. From that point the second line connects to the first and passes through the points 1,500, 2,800 and 2 1 over 3, 1000. From that point the function is horizontal.
600 m
Step-by-step explanation:The slope between 1 minute and 2 minutes is ...
... (800 -500)/(2 -1) = 300 . . . . . . m/min
Thus in 20 seconds, 1/3 minute, Jason will fall ...
... (1/3 min)·(300 m/min) = 100 m
This distance is in addition to the 500 m he has already fallen in the first minute.
In 1 min 20 sec, Jason falls 500 m + 100 m = 600 m.
_____
Comment on the graph
We don't expect Jason's rate of fall to change dramatically at the 2-minute mark. We suspect the last point should be (2 2/3, 1000).
