Use the three steps to solve the problem. the length of a rectangle is 2 inches less than 3 times the number of inches in its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 28 inches, what is the width and length of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1
Let the width of the rectangle be w.

Let the length be l.

l = 3w - 2

Given,

Perimeter = 28 

2*( l + w ) = 28

2*( 3w -2 + w ) = 28 

4w - 2 = 14  [ Dividing both sides by 2 ]

2w - 1 = 7 [ Dividing both sides by 2 ]

2w = 8

w = 4.

Thus,

l = 3w -2 = 3*4 - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10

Therefore, the length is 10 inches and the width is 4 inches.

what is the reciprocal of 8-3i

Answers

Final answer:

The reciprocal of the complex number 8-3i is found by dividing its complex conjugate (8+3i) by the modulus squared of 8-3i, which is 73. The result is 8/73 + 3i/73.

Explanation:

The reciprocal of a complex number is the complex conjugate of that number divided by the modulus squared of the original number. In the case of the complex number 8-3i, its complex conjugate is 8+3i. To find the reciprocal of 8-3i, you would divide this complex conjugate by the modulus squared of 8-3i.

First, calculate the modulus squared of 8-3i:

Modulus of 8-3i = sqrt(82 + (-3)2) = sqrt(64 + 9) = sqrt(73).Modulus squared = (sqrt(73))2 = 73.

Then, divide the complex conjugate by this modulus squared to get the reciprocal:

Reciprocal of 8-3i = (8+3i) / 73 = 8/73 + 3i/73.

There are 150 marigold plants in a back yard. Each month, the number of marigold plants decreases by 15%. There are 125 sunflower plants in the back yard. Each month, 8 sunflower plants are removed. Part A: Write functions to represent the number of marigold plants and the number of sunflower plants in the back yard throughout the months. (4 points) Part B: How many marigold plants are in the back yard after 3 months? How many sunflower plants are in the back yard after the same number of months? (2 points) Part C: After approximately how many months is the number of marigold plants and the number of sunflower plants the same? Justify your answer mathematically. (4 points)

Answers

To solve this problem, let us first assign variables. Let us say that:

X = number of marigold plants

Y = number of sunflower plants

n = number of months

We can see that in the given problem, X is decreasing by a percentage, this means that we have to set-up a geometric equation while for Y the decrease is linear so we set-up an arithmetic equation.

 

Part A.

For marigold plants X, a geometric sequence has a general form of:

X = Xo * (1 + r)^n

where r = -15% = -0.15   (negative since it is decreasing)

Xo = the initial amount of marigold plants = 150

X = 150 * (1 – 0.15)^n

X = 150 (0.85)^n

 

For the sunflower plants Y, an arithmetic sequence has a general form of:

Y = Yo + d * n

where d = -8 and Yo = 125

Y = 125 – 8 n

 

Part B. For n = 3

 

X = 150 (0.85)^3 = 92.12 = 92

 

Y = 125 – 8 (3) = 101

 

Part C. From Part B we see that the two values are very far from each other when n = 3, therefore they must be similar when n < 3. So we try n = 2

 

X = 150 (0.85)^2 = 108.38 = 108

 

Y = 125 – 8 (2) = 109

 

Therefore the two plants have approximately similar amount after 2 months.

Answers

Answer: $1.30/1 lb
A unit rate is when ratios are expressed as a quantity of one. To change $6.50 for 5 pounds to a unit rate, you must divide everything by 5 in order to get the price for one individual pound. $6.50 / 5 = $1.30, so the price of $6.50 for 5 pounds as a unit rate is $1.30/1 lb.

Question 3 (Essay Worth 10 points)

(03.06 MC)

Part A: Eveline rented a car at $180 for 4 days. If she rents the same car for 9 days, she has to pay a total rent of $325.

Write an equation in the standard form to represent the total rent (y) that Eveline has to pay for renting the car for x days. (4 points)

Part B: Write the equation obtained in Part A using function notation. (2 points)

Part C: Describe the steps to graph the equation obtained above on the coordinate axes. Mention the labels on the axes and the intervals. (4 points)

Answers

PART A

To form the equation to represent total rent, we first need to establish the changing rate and the fixed cost. Changing rate is the fee for every one day the car is rented and fixed cost is the initial cost of the car rental.

To find the changing rate we divide the cost difference between two days by the difference of days

We have 
$180 = 4 days
$ 325 = 9 days

The changing rate is [tex] \frac{325-180}{9-4}= \frac{145}{5}=29 [/tex]

The table below shows the working out of the price for each day the car is rented. We work out that day 0 cost $63 which means this is the fixed cost

Hence, the equation of total cost is [tex]y=29x+63[/tex], where [tex]y[/tex] is the total cost and [tex]x[/tex] is the number of days

PART B:

Using the function notation means we will use [tex]f(x)[/tex] instead of [tex]y[/tex], so the equation is

[tex]f(x)=29x+63[/tex]

PART C:

To graph the function, we first need to set the scales on the x-axes and y-axes. 

The scale on x-axes could go up in ones but must start from 0

The scale on y-axes, since it is much bigger values, we can go up in 50

We then plot on the graph for each pair of days and cost. The plots should give us a straight line graph

One example of the graph is shown below

Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{e^{\frac{2}{3}}}+5[/tex] or 5.51

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function : [tex]f(x)= 3\log(x-5)+2[/tex]

We know that , the x-intercept is the point on graph( basically intersection of graph and x-axis)  where y coordinate is zero.

I.e. for x-intercept of function , f(x) =0

i.e. [tex]0= 3\log(x-5)+2[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ \log(x-5)=\dfrac{-2}{3}[/tex]

The number of distinguishable 7-letter words that can be formed using the letters in alabamaalabama is 5040.

Explanation:

The number of distinguishable 7-letter words that can be formed using the letters in alabamaalabama can be calculated using permutations. In this case, we have 12 letters, but some of them are repeated. To calculate the total number of permutations, we need to divide the total number of permutations by the factorial of the number of times each repeated letter appears. The word alabamaalabama has 7 distinct letters, so there are no repeated letters in this case. Therefore, the number of distinguishable 7-letter words that can be formed is simply 7! = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 5040.

Answers

its A <<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Compound interest on a principal of $600.00 at a rate of 10% per year compounded twice per year over a period of one year results in an accumulated total of $661.50 (principal plus interest).

What is compound interest rate?

Compound interest is computed as interest on the principle of an account plus any accrued interest.

Compound interest can be calculated using the following formula:

A = P(1 + r/n[tex])^{nt}[/tex]

,where x = compound interest

P = principal (the initial deposit or loan amount)

r = annual interest rate

n = the number of compounding periods per unit of time

t = the number of time units the money is invested or borrowed for

Given:

P = principal (the initial deposit amount) = $600

r = annual interest rate = 10%

n = the number of compounding periods per unit of time = 2

t = 1

First, convert R as a percent to r as a decimal

r = R/100

r = 10/100

r = 0.1 rate per year,

Then solve the equation for A

A = P(1 + r/n[tex])^{nt}[/tex]

A = 600.00(1 + 0.1/2[tex])^{(2)(1)}[/tex]

A = 600.00(1 + 0.05[tex])^{(2)}[/tex]

A = $661.50

Therefore, the amount is $661.50.

Answers

Answer:

Option 2 is correct .i.e., Joo-Eun can only draw one unique triangle with these side lengths.

Step-by-step explanation:

Measures of sides of triangles are 6 mm , 8 mm and 11 mm

We use a result which states that if sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than 3rd side then triangle with those measures exist.

here,

6 + 8 = 14 > 11

6 + 11 = 17 > 8

8 + 11 = 19 > 6

Therefore, triangle With given measures exist.

Now we use another result which says that a triangle with given measurement can only be drawn as one unique triangle and the angles would be unique for the particular triangle. 

Therefore, Option 2 is correct .i.e., Joo-Eun can only draw one unique triangle with these side lengths.

The statement that is true about Joo-Eun’s plan is: Joo-Eun can only draw one unique triangle with these side lengths.
