Find the average rate of change between f(-7) and f(-1) in the function f(x)=x^2+2x -8

Answers

Answer 1

Solve the equation by replacing x with -7 and then -1.

Then subtract the two to find the difference and divide that by the difference between -7 and -1.

f(-7) = -7^2 + 2(-7) -8 = 49 -14 -8 = 27

f(-1) = -1^2 + 2(-1) -8 = 1 -2 - 8 = -9

Difference between 27 and -9 = -36

Difference between -1 and -7 = -6

Rate of change = -36 /-6 = 6

Given the equation 3/x +1/3=5/6 A) State the solution
B) Show the algebraic work steps leading to the solution

Answers

Hello!

The answer is:

The solution to the equation is:

[tex]x=6[/tex]

Why?

To solve the problem, we must remember how to operate with fractions.

So, adding fractions we have:

[tex]\frac{a}{b}+-\frac{c}{d}=\frac{(a*d)+-(b*c)}{b*d}[/tex]

Now, we are given the expression:

[tex]\frac{3}{x} +\frac{1}{3}=\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

So, solving we have:

[tex]\frac{3}{x} +\frac{1}{3}=\frac{5}{6}\\\\\frac{3}{x}=\frac{5}{6}-\frac{1}{3}\\\\\frac{3}{x}=\frac{(5*3)-(6*1)}{6*3}\\\\\frac{3}{x}=\frac{15-6}{18}\\\\\frac{3}{x}=\frac{9}{18}\\\\\frac{3}{x}=\frac{1}{2} \\\\3*2=1*x\\\\x=6[/tex]

We have that the solution to the equation is:

Micaela is 2 years older than Sam. In 4 years, the sum of their ages will be 40. How old is Micaela now?

Describe and fix any errors in the solution.
Let m = Micaela’s age and s = Sam’s age.
m = s + 2 (s + 4) + (s + 2 + 4) = 40
s = 15

Answers

Answer:

The error is: The solution shows the Sam's age and the problem asked for Micaela's age.

Solution fixed: [tex]m=17[/tex]

Micaela is 17 years old now.

Step-by-step explanation:

The error is: The solution shows the Sam's age and the problem asked for Micaela's age.

To fix the error, you can set up these equations based on the information given:

[tex]m=s+2[/tex]  

[tex](m+4)+(s+4)=40[/tex]  

Solve for "s" from the first equation:

[tex]s=m-2[/tex]

Substitute this equation into the second equation:

[tex](m+4)+((m-2)+4)=40[/tex]  

Now you need to solve for "m":

[tex]m+4+(m-2+4)=40\\m+4+m+2=40\\m+m=40-4-2\\2m=34\\m=\frac{34}{2}\\\\m=17[/tex]

Micaela is 17 years old now.

Answer:

The error is: The solution shows the Sam's age and the problem asked for Micaela's age.

X+2y=7 x-2y=-1 what is solution

It's a system of linear equations; let me write it out more neatly for you:

[tex]\left \{ {x + 2y = 7} \atop {x - 2y = -1}} \right.[/tex]  

Good. In order to solve a system of equations with two variables, we can find one variable and then use that variable to find the other. This wouldn't be the case if we just had one equation, note.  

Let's work on the top one first. There's multiple ways of solving this one, but here's the most simple way: isolating a single variable. The goal is to get either just x or just y on one side.  

[tex]x + 2y=7\\x = 7-2y[/tex]  

Nice. Now that we have a value of x, we can just plug it into the other equation -- since we know that x is equal to another expression, we can replace x in the other equation with the expression.  

[tex]x - 2y = -1\\(7-2y)-2y = -1\\7 - 2y - 2y = -1\\7 - 4y = -1 \\-4y = -8\\y = 2[/tex]  

Now that we have y, we can do the same thing for x. This time, however, we have the actual value of y, meaning we can just plug that in.  

[tex]x = 7 - 2y\\x = 7 - 2(2)\\x = 7 - 4 \\x = 3[/tex]  

Our solution is  

[tex]\left \{ {{x=3} \atop {y=2}} \right.[/tex]  

We can check this by plugging the values back into the equation.  

[tex]3 + 2(2) = 7\\3 + 4 = 7[/tex]  

and  

[tex]3 - 2(2) = -1\\3 - 4 = -1\\[/tex]  

That's it. There's another (easier) way to handle this specific equation, but this is the simplest way to do it.

Answer:

Final answer is 1/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number cards in deck of cards = 52

Total number of cards with a letter = 16

Total number of cards with red King and letter both = 2

Then probability of getting card with letter P(L) = 16/52

Then probability of getting card with letter and king both  P(K and L) = 2/52

Then required compound probability P(K|L) is given by formula:

P(K and L)= P(L)*P(K|L)

2/52= 16/52*P(K|L)

(2/52)*(52/16)=P(K|L)

2/16=P(K|L)

1/8=P(K|L)

Hence final answer is 1/8.

The area of a circle with diameter of 10.5 inches is

The area of a circle with radius of 6.3 centimeters is

The area of a circle with radius of 3.25 yards is

Answers

1. The area of a circle is calculated using the formula:

[tex]Area = \frac{\pi \: {d}^{2} }{4} [/tex]

The diameter is d=11 feet.

This implies that,

[tex]Area = \frac{\pi \times {11}^{2} }{4} [/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{121\pi}{4} = 95.03 {ft}^{2} [/tex]

2. For this second question the diameter is d=10.5 feet.

We substitute into the formula to get;

[tex]Area = \frac{\pi \times {10.5}^{2} }{4} [/tex]

[tex]Area = \frac{441\pi }{16} = 86.60 {in}^{2} [/tex]

3. The area of a circle is given by the formula,

[tex]Area =\pi \: {r}^{2} [/tex]

where the radius is r=6.3

This implies that,

[tex]Area =\pi \: {(6.3)}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]Area =36.69\pi = 124.69 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

4. The given circle has a radius of 3.25 yards.

Mindy and Daisy are making necklaces using beads. Mindy uses 4 beads for every 5 white beads. daisy uses 6 red beads for every 7 white beads. Use tables of equivalent ratios to determine who will Use more white beads use more white beads when Mindy and Daisy each use 12 red beads

Answers

Answer:

Mindy uses more white beads

Step-by-step explanation:

For Mindy:

red : white = 4 : 5 = 12 : 15

For Daisy:

red : white = 6 : 7 = 12 : 14

When both use 12 red beads, Mindy uses 15 white beads and Daisy uses 14 white beads.

Mindy uses more white beads when both use 12 red beads.

Final answer:

When they each use 12 red beads, Mindy uses more white beads in her necklaces as per the given ratios. Mindy uses 15 white beads, while Daisy uses 14 white beads.

Explanation:

Mindy uses a ratio of 4 red beads to 5 white beads, and Daisy uses a ratio of 6 red beads to 7 white beads. If they each use 12 red beads, we can equate their ratios. For Mindy, the equivalent ratio would be 12 red beads to 15 white beads because 4 red beads go into 12 red beads three times and three times 5 gives 15 white beads. For Daisy, the equivalent ratio would be 12 red beads to 14 white beads as 6 red beads go into 12 red beads twice and twice 7 gives 14. Therefore, when they each use 12 red beads, Mindy uses more white beads in her necklaces using beads.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute y = 4 into the equation and solve for x

Esther wants to be able to save $3,000 in 2 years, what fixed amount should she be putting into her savings each month of those 2 years?

Answers

Esther should save $125 each month to reach her goal of $3,000 in 2 years.

Esther wants to save $3,000 in 2 years and is determining the fixed monthly amount she should contribute to her savings. To find the monthly savings amount, we must divide the total savings goal by the total number of months in 2 years.

Total amount to save: $3,000
Total number of months: 2 years x 12 months/year = 24 months

Fixed monthly saving amount = Total savings goal / Total number of months
Fixed monthly saving amount = $3,000 / 24
Fixed monthly saving amount = $125

Spencer is carrying out a survey of the bear population at Yellowstone National Park. He spots 2 bears - one has a light colored coat and the other has a dark coat.

1- Assume that there are equal numbers of male and female bears in the park. What is the probability that both bears are male?
2- If the lighter colored bear is a male, what are the odds that both are male?

Answers

Answer:

1. 1/4

2. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are equal numbers of males and females, we can simplify that by saying there's one male and one female for each coat color.

1. What's the probability that both are males?

Well, there's a 1/2 chances the light-colored coat bear is a male and there's also a 1/2 chances the dark-colored coat bear is a male.  So, we can make this reference table:

Light             Dark

Male             Male

Male             Female

Female         Male

Female         Female

As you can see, the probability that both of the spotted bears are males is 1/4 (1/2 * 1/2).

2. If the light-colored bear, what are the odds both are males?

If we know for sure the light-one is male, then there's 1/2 chances the other is too, refer to the table above to verify.
