Luis can drive 3 times as fast as rico can ride his bike. If it takes rico 4 hours longer than Luis to travel 72 miles, how fast can ricoride his bike

Answers

Answer 1
Let Rico's speed be S
Then Luis' is: 3S
We then get: seventy-two over s equals seventy-two over three s plus four 
216=72+12s  Multiplying by LCD, 3S
216-72=12s
144 = 12S
S, or Rico's speed would be 144 over 12 or 12mph

One side of a rectangle is 3 inches shorter than the other side, and the perimeter is 54 inches. Which of the following equations could be used to determine the dimensions of the rectangle

Answers

2(x)+2(x-3)=54 is the equation you would use where x is one side
Let x be the longer side of the rectangle 

Side B: x-3 

Perimeter: 2(l+w) 
54"=2(x+x-3) 
54"=2(2x-3) 
54"=4x-6 
54-6=4x
48/4=x 
12=x 

Therefore the longer side is 12" and the shorter side of the rectangle is (12-3)= 9"

Students with better study methods and strategies score higher on their exams.Everyone is different, different methods work for different people the following are only suggestions on improving upon your current studying techniques.It is best to review the material right after class when it's still fresh in your memory.Don't try to do all your studying the night before the test. Instead space out your studying, review class materials at least several times a week, focusing on one topic at a time.
Have all of your study material in front of you: lecture notes, course textbooks, study guides and any other relevant material.
Find a comfortable and quiet place to study with good lighting and little distractions
(try avoiding your own bed, it is very tempting to just lie down and take a nap).
Start out by studying the most important information.
Learn the general concepts first, don't worry about learning the details until you have learned the main ideas.
Take notes and write down a summary of the important ideas as you read through your study material.
Take short breaks frequently. Your memory retains the information that you study at the beginning and the end better than what you study in the middle.
Space out your studying, you'll learn more by studying a little every day instead of waiting to cram at the last minute. By studying every day, the material will stay in your long-term memory but if you try to study at the last moment, the material will only reside in your short-term memory that you'll easily forget.
Make sure that you understand the material well, don't just read through the material and try to memorize everything.
If you choose to study in a group, only study with others who are serious about the test.
Test yourself or have someone test you on the material to find out what your weak and strong areas are. You can use the review questions at the end of each chapter or practice tests the teacher may give out as well as other materials.
Listening to relaxing music such as classical or jazz on a low volume can relieve some of the boredom of studying.
Don't study later than the time you usually go to sleep, you may fall asleep or be tempted to go to sleep, instead try studying in the afternoon or early evening. If you are a morning person try studying in the morning.

lisha is making headbands using ribbon. she would like to make 12 head bands. Each one requires 15.5 inches of ribbon. She estimates that she will need to buy 160 inches of ribbon is her estimate reasonable? Explain your reasoning and lol I'm not in college i just did that

Answers

No her estimate is to low because if you multiply 15.5 by 12 you get 186
We know that Lisha is making headbands using ribbon and she would like to make 12 head bands. Additionally, each one requires 15.5 inches of ribbon. She estimates that she will need to buy 160 inches. 

15.5 * 12 = 186 

Her estimate is not reasonable.

186-160 = 26 

She still needs 26 more ribbons.

Hi, How do you find the first and second derivatives of the function.
y=(x^2-7/63x) (x^4+1/x^3)

I think for the first derivative dy/dx it's 2/63x-3/63x^-3+4/9x^-5 but I'm not sure, and I have no clue for the second derivative d^2y/dx^2.

Answers

The first hand derivative of the function is [tex]6x^5 - \frac{35}{63}x^4 - \frac{1}{x^2} - \frac{4}{63x^3}[/tex] and the second derivative is [tex]30x^4 - \frac{20}{9}x^3 + \frac{2}{x^3} - \frac{2}{3x^4} \\[/tex].  To find the first derivative, apply the product rule to the given function. Then, differentiate the first derivative to obtain the second derivative. Simplify each step carefully.

To find the first derivative of the given function [tex]y = \left( x^2 - \frac{7}{63}x \right) \left( x^4 + \frac{1}{x^3} \right)[/tex], we'll use the product rule, which states that if [tex]y = u(x) \cdot v(x)[/tex], then [tex]y' = u' \cdot v + u \cdot v'[/tex].

First, define u(x) and v(x) as following:

[tex]u(x) = x^2 - \frac{7}{63}x = x^2 - \frac{1}{9}x[/tex][tex]v(x) = x^4 + \frac{1}{x^3}[/tex]

Compute u'(x):

[tex]u'(x) = 2x - \frac{1}{9}[/tex]

Compute v'(x):

[tex]v'(x) = 4x^3 + (-3)x^{-4} = 4x^3 - \frac{3}{x^4}[/tex]

Apply the product rule: [tex]y' = u' \cdot v + u \cdot v'[/tex]

Thus,

 [tex]y' = \left(2x - \frac{1}{9}\right)\left( x^4 + \frac{1}{x^3} \right) + \left( x^2 - \frac{1}{9}x \right) \left( 4x^3 - \frac{3}{x^4} \right)[/tex]

Simplify this expression step-by-step to find the first derivative.

 [tex]y' = \left(2x - \frac{1}{9}\right)\left( x^4 + \frac{1}{x^3} \right) + \left( x^2 - \frac{1}{9}x \right) \left( 4x^3 - \frac{3}{x^4} \right)[/tex][tex]y'[/tex] [tex]&= \left(2x \cdot x^4 + 2x \cdot \frac{1}{x^3} - \frac{1}{9} \cdot x^4 - \frac{1}{9} \cdot \frac{1}{x^3} \right)[/tex][tex]&\quad + \ \left( x^2 \cdot 4x^3 - x^2 \cdot \frac{3}{x^4} - \frac{1}{9}x \cdot 4x^3 + \frac{1}{9}x \cdot \frac{3}{x^4} \right)[/tex][tex]y'[/tex] [tex]&= 2x^5 + \frac{2}{x^2} - \frac{1}{9}x^4 - \frac{1}{9x^3} \\[/tex] [tex]&\quad + \ 4x^5 - \frac{3}{x^2} - \frac{4}{9}x^4 + \frac{1}{3x^3}[/tex][tex]y'[/tex] [tex]&= 6x^5 - \frac{1}{x^2} - \frac{5}{9}x^4 + \frac{2}{9x^3}[/tex][tex]y'[/tex] [tex]&= 6x^5 - \frac{5}{9}x^4 - \frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{2}{9x^3}[/tex]

To find the second derivative, differentiate the first derivative, carefully differentiating each term:

[tex]y'' &= \frac{d}{dx}\left( 6x^5 \right) - \frac{d}{dx}\left( \frac{5}{9}x^4 \right) - \frac{d}{dx}\left( \frac{1}{x^2} \right) + \frac{d}{dx}\left( \frac{2}{9x^3} \right) \\[/tex][tex]y''[/tex] [tex]&= 30x^4 - \frac{5}{9} \cdot 4x^3 - \left( -2x^{-3} \right) + \left( -\frac{2}{9} \cdot 3x^{-4} \right) \\[/tex][tex]y''[/tex] [tex]&= 30x^4 - \frac{20}{9}x^3 + \frac{2}{x^3} - \frac{2}{3x^4} \\[/tex]

So, for the function [tex]y = \left( x^2 - \frac{7}{63}x \right) \left( x^4 + \frac{1}{x^3} \right)[/tex], we have:

First derivative [tex](y')[/tex] [tex]&= 6x^5 - \frac{5}{9}x^4 - \frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{2}{9x^3}[/tex]Second derivative [tex](y'')[/tex] [tex]&= 30x^4 - \frac{20}{9}x^3 + \frac{2}{x^3} - \frac{2}{3x^4} \\[/tex]

Two numbers total 53 and have a difference of 25. Find the two numbers.

Answers

Two numbers (x + y) equal (=) 53
and
have a difference (x - y) of (=) 25.

So, x + y = 53 and x - y = 25.

Solve one equation for a variable. We'll solve for x in the first equation.

x + y = 53   Subtract y from both sides
     x = 53 - y

Substitute x for (53 - y) in the second equation.

        x - y = 25     Substitute (53 - y) in the x spot
53 - y - y = 25     Combine like terms (-y and -y)
   53 - 2y = 25     Subtract 53 from both sides
          -2y = -28   Divide both sides by -2
             y = 14

Now, find x by plugging this y-value (14) into the first equation.

  x + y = 53   Substitute y for 14
x + 14 = 53   Subtract 14 from 53
       x = 39

Check both of your answers by plugging them into the original equations.

    x + y = 53   Plug in your numbers (39 and 14)
39 + 14 = 53   Add
       53 = 53

    x - y = 25   Plug in your numbers (39 and 14)
39 - 14 = 25   Subtract
      25 = 25

So, your answers are x = 39 and y = 14 .

A rectangular swimming pool has a volume capacity of 2160 cubic feet. Water is being added to the pool at a rate of about 20 cubic feet per minute. Determine about how long it will take to fill the pool completely if there were already about 1200 gallons of water in the pool.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

2160=20x+60.417)

2160= 20x+160.417

2160-160.417=20x+160.417-160.417

1999.583=20x

1999.583/20=20x/20

x= 99.98 min

Total time taken to fill the pool is 100 minutes

Given:

Amount of water already in pool = 1200 gallon

Total capacity of pool = 2160 cubic feet

Rate of water supply = 20 cubic feet per minute

Find:

Total time taken to fill the pool

Computation:

1 cubic feet = 7.5 gallon water

Amount of water already in pool = 1200 / 7.5

Amount of water already in pool = 160 cubic feet

Remain volume = 2160 - 160

Remain volume = 2000 cubic feet

Total time taken to fill the pool = 2000 / 20

Total time taken to fill the pool = 100 minutes

Answers

20*2=40

about 33 hours by lifting by hand
Final answer:

To find the work done in lifting the entire cable to the top of the building, multiply the weight of the cable by the height of the building.

Explanation:

To calculate the work done in lifting the entire cable to the top of the building, we need to find the weight of the cable. The weight of the cable can be found by multiplying the length of the cable (20 feet) by its weight per foot (2 pounds per foot). Therefore, the weight of the cable is 20 feet × 2 pounds per foot = 40 pounds.

The work done in lifting the cable to the top of the building is equal to the product of the weight of the cable and the height of the building. So, the work done is 40 pounds × 50 feet = 2000 foot-pounds.

a line that intersects the points (-23,-17) and (-13,-7), find the slope, now fill in the missing inputs to the slope-intercept formula -17=1(?)+b or (?)=(-13)+b

Answers

The slope of the line can be calculated using the following formula:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)

The given points are (-23,-17) and (-13,-7), therefore:
y2 = -7
y1 = -17
x2 = -13
x1 = -23

Substitute with these values to get the slope as follows:
slope (m) = (-7--17) / (-13--23) = 1

The formula of the slope-intercept is:
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the intercept.
Using the point (-23,-17), the formula would be:
-17 = 1(-23) + b
Using the point (-13,-7), the formula would be:
-7 = 1(-13) + b

What is the margin of error for a sample statistic for a population with a standard deviation of 11.3?

Answers

The margin of error for a sample statistic requires the population standard deviation, the desired confidence level, and the sample size. It is found by multiplying the z-score for the confidence level with the standard error, which is the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size. For a 95% confidence interval, the error bound is factored into the sample mean to estimate the population mean.

The margin of error for a sample statistic depends on the level of confidence desired and the sample size. Using the population standard deviation, we can calculate the margin of error by finding the z-score associated with the desired confidence level and multiplying it by the standard error. The standard error is calculated as the population standard deviation (11.3) divided by the square root of the sample size (n).

Based on the example given referencing an error bound for the mean (3.2), a 95% confidence interval could be constructed by adding and subtracting the error bound from the sample mean (15). Therefore, the 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean would be (11.8, 18.2).

When a sample standard deviation is provided instead of a population standard deviation, and if the sample size is small, the Student's t-distribution should be used instead of the normal distribution.

For a 95% confidence interval, we generally use 1.96 as the z-score for a normal distribution, but this value could change depending on specific confidence levels or other distributions like the t-distribution.
