Henry is younger than Cameron. Their ages are consecutive odd integers. Find Henry's age if the sum of Henry's age and 2 times Cameron's age is 85.

Answers

Answer 1

Since we used x and x+2 as consecutive odd integers. "x" to represent Henry's age, Henry's age is 27. Since we used the expression "x+2" to represent Cameron's age, Cameron's age is "27+2" which is just 29.

How to do age sums?

So the consecutive odd integers, just means they're separated by a value of 2. This can be generally expressed as "a and a+2" where the these two values would be consecutive odd integers assuming "a" is an integer.

So let's express the Henry's age as the variable "x", since it's unknown. Since Cameron is older, and by definition of a consecutive odd integer, Cameron's can be expressed as "x+2"

So the equation we need to set up is 2(Cameron's age) + (Henry's age) = 85

So we can substitute variables we defined to express Cameron and Henry's age:

2(x+2)+x= 85

Distribute the 2:

2x+4+x

Add like terms:

3x+4=85

Subtract 4 from both sides:

[tex]3x= 81[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3:

x=27

Since we used "x" to represent Henry's age, Henry's age is 27. Since we used "x+2" to represent the Cameron's age, Cameron's age is "27+2" which is just 29.

Answers

In order to determine which person is the first to win both prizes, you have to find the least common multiple to both numbers 14 and 10.

To determine what is the least common multiple number you proceed as follow:

You list different multiples of each number 14 and 10.

For 14: 14 28 42 56 70 84 98 112

For 10: 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80

The least common multiple is 70, becasue is the first common number in each list.

Hence the 70th person in the line will win both prizes.

C: 10.5x<26
D: 10.5x>26

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

it is simple.

because AB > AD, their size representations must have the same relationship.

therefore,

9x - 16 > 1.5x + 42

that could be simplified to

7.5x > 58

The inequality that represents AB > AD is B: 9x - 16 > 1.5x + 42.

What are inequalities and their types?

Inequality is a relation that compares two numbers or other mathematical expressions in an unequal way.

The symbol a < b indicates that a is smaller than b.

When a > b is used, it indicates that a is bigger than b.

a is less than or equal to b when a notation like a b.

a is bigger or equal value of an is indicated by the notation a b.

Given, In Rectangle ABCD the length of AB is greater than the length of AD.

∴ The inequality that represents this is AB > AD which is,

If a ball is thrown directly upward with a velocity of 88 ft/s, its height (in feet) after t seconds is
given by y = 88t - 16t².
When does the ball reach its maximum height? (Round to two decimal places)

Answers

If a ball is thrown directly upward with a velocity of 88 ft/s, its height (in feet) after t seconds is given by y = 88t - 16t².The ball will reach its maximum height at 121 feet.

Maximum height

Given equation:

y = 88t - 16t²

Maximum height dy/dt = 0

88-32t = 0

32t = 88

t = 88/32sec

t = 2.75sec

Hence,

Maximum height attained by the ball :

Maximum height attained by the ball = 88(2.75)-16(2.75)²

Maximum height attained by the ball = 242 - 121

Maximum height attained by the ball = 121 feet

Therefore the maximum height is 121 feet.

A certain standardized test has a mean of 421 and a standard deviation of 18. For a student to score higher than 30.85% of those who took the exam, what score would be necessary?

Answers

The score required for the exam so that the score is higher than 30.85% is 412 for certain standardized test.

What is defined as the z-score?A Z-Score is a measurable statistic of a score's connection to the mean among a set of scores.A Z-score can tell a trader whether a value is characteristic for a given data set or atypical.In overall, a Z-score of less than 1.8 indicates that a company may be on the verge of bankruptcy, whereas a score nearer to 3 indicates that a company is in good financial standing.

The formula for finding the z-score is;

z = (x - μ)/σ

x = sample size

μ = mean of the population

σ = standard deviation of the population.

The given values are-

μ = 421

σ = 18

Probability = 30.85% = 0.3085

Check the z-score from the negative z table for 0.3085

z score = -0.5

Put the values in z formula and find x.

z = (x - μ)/σ

-0.5 = (x - 421)/18

Simplifying;

x = -9 + 421

x = 412

Thus, the score required for the standardized test is found as 412.

What are the mean and median?

A data set's mean (average) is calculated by summing all of the numbers in the set, then dividing by the total number of values in the set. When a data collection is ranked from least to greatest, the median is the middle value.

Given the data set: 352, 409, 424, 471, 497, 503, 515, 525, 561

(a) Mean = [tex]\frac{352+409+424+471+497+503+515+525+561}{9}[/tex]

Mean = [tex]\frac{4257}{9}[/tex]

= 473

The number 561 from this list changes to 768.

New mean = [tex]\frac{352+409+424+471+497+503+515+525+768}{9}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4464}{9}[/tex]

= 496

Thus, the mean increases by 496 - 473 = 23.

(b) Median = mid value

= 497

When the number 561 changes to 768, still the mid value will remain the same i.e. the median remains the same.

Therefore, the mean increases by 23 and the median stays the same.

find all real and complex zeros for f(x)=x^3-x^2+3x-3

Answers

The real and complex zeros for the function given as .f(x) = x³ - x² + 3x - 3 are x = 1 and x = ±i√3, respectively

How to determine the zeros of the function?

The equation of the function is given as

f(x) = x³ - x² + 3x - 3

Group the terms of the function in two's

So, we have the equation

f(x) = (x³ - x²) + (3x - 3)


Factor each group in the function

f(x) = x²(x - 1) + 3(x - 1)

Factor out x - 1

f(x) = (x² + 3)(x - 1)

Set to 0

(x² + 3)(x - 1) = 0

This gives

x² = - 3 and x = 1

Evaluate the roots

x = ±i√3 and x = 1

Hence, the zeros of the equation are x = ±i√3 and x = 1

A geometric progression is a sequence where each and every succeeding term is formed by multiplying the preceding term by a constant number. That constant number is called common ratio.

The common ratio is provided to be 5. While the first term is 3.

The seventh term is 46875.

The formula for sum of n terms of a GP is,

Sn = a(rⁿ-1)/(r-1)

We have to find sum of seven terms,

Sn = a(r⁶.r - 1)/(r-1)

Putting,

a = 3

r = 5

n =6

Sn = 3(5⁶.5 - 1)/(5-1)

Sn = (3.5⁶.5 - 3)/4

Sn = (46875×5 - 3)/4

Sn = (234375-3)/4

Sn = 234372/4

Answers

An equation in slope-intercept form for the line perpendicular to y = 3x + 9 that contains (-6, 3) is 3 = -1/3(-6) + 1.

What is slope-intercept form?

The most "popular" type of a straight line is one with a slope-intercept. Due to its simplicity, this is helpful to a lot of students. The slope and y-intercept of the straight line can be easily determined or read off from this form, making it possible to describe its properties without having access to the graph.

The equation for a line written in slope-intercept form

y = mx + b

Where,

m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

We know that the slope of a line perpendicular to given equation becomes reciprocal with opposite sign.

So, here slope is 3 and in perpendicular line it will become -1/3.

Now we will go with slope-intercept form and put the values (-6, 3) as x and y in y = mx + b

⇒ 3 = -1/3(-6) + b

Lets solve for b

⇒ b = 3 - ( -1/3(-6))

       = 3 - (2)

       = 1

Now we have the desired equation

3 = -1/3(-6) + 1

Thus, An equation in slope-intercept form for the line perpendicular to y = 3x + 9 that contains (-6, 3) is 3 = -1/3(-6) + 1.

Answers

It is known that any exponential function with the form f(x)=a^x is an increasing function while a function of the form g(x)=a^(-x) is a decreasing function.

Furthermore, it a function h(x) is increasing, then the function -h(x) is decreasing. By analogy, if a function k(x) is decreasing, then -k(x) is increasing.

Now let's analyze the functions from the problem.

[tex]\text{ Let }f(x)=10\cdot(\frac{6}{7})^x[/tex]

Since (6/7)^x is increasing and the multiplying factor of 10 is positive, then the function f(x) is also increasing.

Use these rules to find whether each function is increasing or decreasing.

Remember that increasing functions are used to represent growth while decreasing functions are used to represent decay.
