Answer:

The values of given expression at x=-3 are [tex]x^{-3}= -\frac{1}{27}[/tex], [tex]x^{-1}=-\frac{1}{3}[/tex], [tex]x^{0}=1[/tex], [tex]x^{1}=-3[/tex] and [tex]x^{2}=9[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of each expression at x=-3.

The given expression is

[tex]x^{-3}[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]x^{-3}=\frac{1}{x^3}[/tex]                     [tex][\because x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}][/tex]

Substitute x=-3 in the above expression.

[tex]x^{-3}=\frac{1}{(-3)^3}\Rightarrow -\frac{1}{27}[/tex]

Similarly,

[tex]x^{-1}=\frac{1}{x}\Rightarrow -\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x^{0}=1[/tex]                   [tex][\because x^{0}=1][/tex]

[tex]x^{1}=(-3)^1=-3[/tex]

How many terms are in the polynomial abcd + e - h 2? two three five six

Answers

There are 3 terms to my knowledge because there are 3 polynomials to add.

Answer:

The number of terms in the polynomial are:

Three.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a polynomial expression in terms of variable a,b,c,d , e and h as:

[tex]abcd+e-h^2[/tex]

We know that in any algebraic expression the number of terms are the number of unlike expressions that are separated by a minus or plus i.e. addition sign.

Hence here by looking at our polynomial expression we see that there are three terms in the expression :

                 1)   [tex]abcd[/tex]

                 2)   [tex]e[/tex]

                 3)   [tex]h^2[/tex]  

Andrea and raleigh are each rolling a fair, six-sided die. they roll their dice simultaneously, individually keeping a sum until someone reaches 100; whoever reaches 100 first wins. (if they reach 100 on the same roll, it's a tie.) andrea's die has sides 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. raleigh's has sides 1, 1, 1, 6, 6, and 6. who is more likely to win?

Answers

Let  An be the likely number of rolls for Andrea to arrive at 100 or more, given that she is  n away from the target of  100 (which means her current total is 100 - n ). Then we get the recurrence relation

An = 1 + (1/6) (An-1 + An-2 + An-3 + An-4 + An-5 + An – 6)

and the initial conditions A0 = A-1 = A-2 = A-3 = A-4 = A-5 = 0. This results in A100 = 29.0476 as the amount of expected rolls that Andrea has to make.

Now let  Rn to be expected amount of rolls for Raleigh to arrive at 100 or more, given than he is also  n away from the target of 100. Now the recurrence relation is:

Rn = 1 + (1/2) (Rn-1 + Rn-6)

with the initial conditions R0 = R-1 = R-2 = R-3 = R-4 = R-5 = 0. This gives us R100 = 29.1837 as the expected amount of rolls for Raleigh.

 

Therefore Andrea has to make less number of rolls thus she is expected to win.

Noa drove from the Dead Sea up to Jerusalem, and her altitude increased at a constant rate of 740 meters per hour. When she arrived in Jerusalem after 1.5 hours of driving, her altitude was 710 meters above sea level.

Let A(t) denote Noa's altitude relative to sea level A (measured in meters) as a function of time t (measured in hours).

Answers

hmm, so

A(t)=740t+a₀
where a₀ is initial height or the height she started at

we want to find her initial height

after 1.5 hours, she was 710 meters above sea levl
alright
A(1.5)=740(1.5)+a₀=710
740(1.5)+a₀=710
1110+a₀=710
minus 1110 both sides
a₀=-400


so she stared at -400 meters below sea level

and the equation would be (or function)
A(t)=740t-400

She stared at -400 meters below sea level and the equation is A(t)=740t-400

Functions and values

Functions are written in terms of variables

From the given question;

Required

Initial height

After 1.5 hours, she was 710 meters above sea level

Substitute the given time into the function

A(1.5)=740(1.5)+a₀=710

740(1.5)+a₀=710

1110+a₀=710

a₀=-400

Answers

Notice that every pair of point (x, y) in the original picture, has become (-y, -x) in the transformed figure.

Let ABC be first transformed onto A"B"C" by a 90° clockwise rotation.

Notice that B(4, 1) is mapped onto B''(1, -4). So the rule mapping ABC to A"B"C"   is (x, y)→(y, -x)

so we are very close to (-y, -x).

The transformation that maps (y, -x) to (-y, -x) is a reflection with respect to the y-axis. Notice that the 2. coordinate is same, but the first coordinates are opposite.

The profit in manufacturing x refrigerators per day, is given by the profit relation p = ¡3x2 + 240x ¡ 800 dollars. a how many refrigerators should be made each day to maximise the total profit? b what is the maximum profit?

Answers

The given equation is -3x²+240x-800

The maximum of the function is given when [tex]x=- \frac{b}{2a} [/tex] where a and b are the constant of a quadratic form ax²+bx+c

We then have
a = -3
b = 240

Substitute these values into the maximum/minimum formula we have
[tex]x= \frac{-240}{2(-3)} = \frac{240}{6}=40 [/tex]

Which means that the maximum profit is obtained when the number of refrigerators produced is 40 items a day

The maximum profit is 

p = -3(40)²+240(40)-800 = $4000




Final answer:

The firm should produce 40 refrigerators per day to maximize profit, resulting in a maximum profit of $4,000. A flat tax would reduce profit without affecting price directly, while a per unit tax could increase prices and alter the profit-maximizing output and profit levels.

Explanation:

Maximizing Profit and Effects of Taxes on a Firm's Profit

The profit that a firm makes from manufacturing x refrigerators per day is given by the profit function p = -3x^2 + 240x - 800, where p stands for profit. To maximize the total profit, we need to find the vertex of this quadratic function, which represents the highest point of the parabola on a graph. The x-coordinate of the vertex can be found using the formula -b/(2a), where a is the coefficient of x^2 and b is the coefficient of x. Substituting the values from the profit function, we get x = -240/(2*(-3)), which simplifies to x = 40. Thus, the firm should produce 40 refrigerators per day to maximize profit.

To find the maximum profit, we substitute x = 40 back into the profit function: p = -3(40)^2 + 240(40) - 800. After calculating, the maximum profit comes out to be $4,000 per day.

If a tax of $1,000 per day is imposed on the firm, this would lower the profit by the amount of the tax, without directly affecting the price. It's uncertain how the firm might react—whether they decide to increase the price to compensate or not is a strategic decision.

A tax of $100 per unit would likely cause the firm to increase the price by at least $100 to maintain their profit margins. The new profit function would be p = -3x^2 + (240-100)x - 800, which would also affect the profit-maximizing output. After recalculating with the new function, the firm would adjust its output and profit accordingly.

On an up hill hike Ted climbs at 3 mph. Going back down, he runs at 5 mph. If it takes him forty minutes longer to climb up than run down, then what is the length of the hike?

Answers

The main formula is:

Distance traveled = (average)Speed*Time.

i) when Ted Climbs up:

let D be the distance, T the time it takes Ted to climb, S_u=3mph is the speed as Ted climbs up.

then:   D=3T


ii) when Ted goes down:

D is the distance, T-40 the time it takes Ted go down, S_d=5mph is the speed as Ted climbs up.

then:   D=5(T-40)

equalizing the equations in i and ii:

(D=)       3T=5(T-40)
              3T=5T-200
              200=2T
              T=100     (minutes)

the total length of the hike is T+T-40=100+100-40=160 (minutes)



Answer: 160 minutes
