A squirrel burrowed 10 holes in 8 minutes. How many holes could the squirrel burrow in 12 minutes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Fast and loose: To go from 8 to 12 minutes you're adding half the time (4 minutes). So it has time to burrow only half the holes in the extra time, so 5. Total, 10+5=15.

Crunching numbers: it's a simple proportion:[tex]10:8 = x :12[/tex] from which, cross-multiplying you get [tex]8x=12\times10 \rightarrow 8x=120 \rightarrow x=15[/tex]

The first term in an arithmetic sequences is -9. The fifth term in the sequences is 15. The tenth term in the sequences is 45. Write the explicit form that would be used to find the nth term in the sequence. Show the steps you took to write the simplified explicit form.

Answers

Answer:

an = a1 + 6(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = -9, a5= 15, a10 = 45

Since is an arithmetic sequence we only add or subtract something to get to the next term. Since we got from -9 to 15 we know that we must add something and that we add it 4 times the same amount to get from -9 to 15.

a1= -9

a2= -9+6 = -3

a3= -3+6 = 3

a4= 3+6 = 9

a5= 9+6 = 15

We add 6 each time.

The explicit formula is an = a1 + 6(n-1) because

for example a5 = a1 the first term + 6* (5-1) times

                    a5 = -9 + 6* 4 = -9 + 24 = 15✅

                    a10 = a1 + 6* (10-1)

                    a10 = -9 + 6*9 = 45✅

What is the solution set of the equation 6x^2 - 18x - 18 =6?

Answers

Answer:

The solution set is {4, -1}

Step-by-step explanation:

6x²- 18x -18 = 6

6x²- 18x -18 - 6 = 0

6x²- 18x -24 = 0

6(x² - 3x - 4) = 0

6(x - 4)(x + 1) = 0

6 = 0 not true

x - 4 = 0 ;   x + 1 = 0

x = 4           x = - 1

Solving Systems of Three equations

(please help i will make you brainliest!!!)

Answers

Answer:

2) x = -4; y = 0; z = -2

4) x = 4; y = 2; z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2)

-4x - 5y - z = 18

-2x - 5y - 2z = 12

-2x + 5y + 2z = 4

Add the 2nd and 3rd equations to eliminate y and z.

-4x = 16

x = -4

Substitute x = -4 in first and second equations.

(-4)(-4) - 5y - z = 18

(-2)(-4) - 5y - 2z = 12

-5y - z = 2

-5y - 2z = 4

Multiply first equation by -1 and add to second equation.

       5y + z = -2

(+)   -5y - 2z = 4

----------------------

               -z = 2

z = -2

Substitute x = -4 and z = -2 in first original equation and solve for y.

-4(-4) - 5y - (-2) = 18

16 - 5y + 2 = 18

-5y = 0

y = 0

Answer: x = -4; y = 0; z = -2

4)

4x + 4y + z = 24

2x - 4y + z = 0

5x - 4y - 5z = 12

Add equations 1 and 3 to eliminate y.

9x - 4z = 36    Eq. 1

Add equations 1 and 2 to eliminate y.

6x + 2z = 24    Eq. 2

Multiply Eq. 2 by 2 and add to Eq. 1.

       12x + 4z = 48

(+)      9x - 4z = 36

----------------------------

        21x       = 84

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into Eq. 1 to solve for z.

9x - 4z = 36

9(4) - 4z = 36

-4z = 0

z = 0

Substitute x = 4 and z = 0 into the first original equation to solve for y.

4x + 4y + z = 24

4(4) + 4y + 0 = 24

4y = 8

y = 2

Answer: x = 4; y = 2; z = 0

Mai is making personal pizzas. For 4 pizzas, she uses 10 ounces of cheese. How much does she use on 1 pizza. How much does she use on 15 pizzas.

Answers

Answer:

32.5

Step-by-step explanation:

10 ounces is in 4 pizzas so if we want 15 pizzas we need to count up

4 can not fit into 15 so we have to stop at 12 pizzas.

Now we need to add 3 pizzas

:Note: that one pizza is 2.5 of an ounce  out of 10 ounces

so after you add the 3 pizzas you have 15 but that wasnt 4 pizzas so you have 2.5 ounces left over you add those ounces to the 30 you got from the 12 ounces which you have 30 and add it to the ounces left over

2.5 + 30 = 32.5

To approach the runway, a pilot of a small plane must begin a 5° descent starting from a height of 1732 ff above the ground. To the nearest tenth of a mile, how many miles from the runway is the airplane at the start of this approach( how far does the airplane have to fly)?

0 3.7 mi
0 3.8 mi
0 0.3 mi
0 19,872.5 mi

Answers

Answer:  Choice B)  3.8 miles

==============================================================

Explanation:

Check out the diagram below.

Those pair of 5 degree angles shown are congruent alternate interior angles. We'll use the sine rule to find the hypotenuse x (which is some measurement in feet).

sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse

sin(5) = 1732/x

x*sin(5) = 1732

x = 1732/sin(5)

x = 19,872.4713415001 approximately

x = 19,872.5

It's tempting to say that choice D is the final answer. However, the result we just got is in feet, not in miles. To convert from feet to miles, we divide by 5280.

19,872.5 ft = (19,872.5)/5280 = 3.7637 miles

That then rounds to the final answer of 3.8 miles (choice B).

------------

Alternatively, you can convert 1732 ft to miles to get roughly 1732/5280 = 0.328 miles. Then you should solve this equation for x

sin(5) = 0.328/x

it should lead you to x = 3.8 miles

The units of [tex]r'(t)[/tex] are gallons per square hour.

Dimensionally speaking, [tex]r(t)[/tex], expressed in gallons per hour, is length raised to third power divided by time. Capacity units are volume units.

A line passes through the points (4, 4) and (6, 10). What is its equation in slope-intercept form?

Answers

Answer:

3x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

math

Answer:

y=3x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this is the rise over the run. Using the points, we can do (10-4)/(6-4) to get the slope. After solving this, we get 3 as the slope! Slope intercept form is in y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

So, y=3x+b

We can insert any of those coordinates into this equation and solve for b to get the y-intercept. If we insert (4,4), then we get 4=3(4)+b

: 4=12+b

:-8=b

Now that we have -8 as the y-intercept, we can insert that as b to get y=3x-8 as the equation in slope intercept form.

A population of river otters has a population growth rate of 0.2 per year. If the population starts out with 50 individuals and there is no death and no migration, how many individuals would you expect after one year and after two years

Answers

Answer:

1 year= 60

2 year= 72

Step-by-step explanation:

1 year:

There are 50 otters and they grow at a rate of .2 so you multiply 50 by .2 to get 10. Now you just add 50 to 10 because 50 is how much it started as and 10 is how much were born. So the anwser for 1 year is 60.

2 years:

Now you have a start of 60 otters because it is the second year so you multiple 60 by .2 to get 12. Now you add 12 to 60 because the second year started with 60 and 12 were born. SO the anwser is 72.

A aluminum bar 4 feet long weighs 24 pounds. What is the weight of a similar bar that is 3 feet 3 inches long?

A. 29.54 LBS

B. 3 LBS

C. 19.50 LBS

D. 78 LBS

Answers

Answer:

  C.  19.50 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

3 feet 3 inches is nearly 4 feet, but is a little shorter. That means the weight of the bar will be nearly 24 pounds, but a little less.

It cannot be 29 or 78 pounds, because those weights are more than 24 pounds. It cannot be 3 pounds, because that weight is significantly less. The only viable answer choice is 19.50 pounds.

__

We assume the weight is proportional to the length. Then the weight (w) of the shorter bar will be ...

  w/39 = 24/48 . . . . . weight in pounds/length in inches

  w = 39(24/48) = 39/2 = 19.5

The weight of the shorter bar is 19.5 pounds.
