Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors
1/4 of the students preferred red.
This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4
1/8 of the students preferred blue.
This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8
The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes
x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8
3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8
if 15 students prefer green, then
3x/8 = 15
3x = 120
x = 120/3 = 40 students
Answer: 200 minutes have to be used for the costs of both plans to be the same.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of minutes that have to be used for the costs of both plans to be the same.
Package A is $35.00 per month with an additional charge of $0.15 per minute for long distance. This means that the cost of using package A for x minutes in a month would be
35 + 0.15x
Package B is $45.00 per month with an additional charge of $0.10 per minute for long distance. This means that the cost of using package A for x minutes in a month would be
45 + 0.1x
For both costs to be the same, it means that
35 + 0.15x = 45 + 0.1x
0.15x - 0.1x = 45 - 35
0.05x = 10
x = 10/0.05
x = 200
Answer:
Domain
Step-by-step explanation:
Input Values Form the Domain of the Function
Mathematicians call the set of all input values for a function its domain.
The question involves the concept & equations associated with projectile motion.
Given:
y₁ = 1130 ft
v₁ = +46 ft/s (note positive sign indicates upwards direction)
t = 6.0 s
g = acceleration due to gravity (assumed constant for simplicity) = -32.2 ft/s²
Of the possible equations of motion, the one we'll find useful is:
y₂ = y₁ + v₁t + 1/2gt²
We can just plug and chug to define the equation of motion:
<u><em>y = (1130 ft) + (46 ft/s)t + 1/2(-32.2 ft/s²)t²</em></u>
<em>(note: if you were to calculate y using t = 6.0 s, you'd find that y = 826.4 ft, instead of 830 ft exactly because of some rounding of g and/or the initial velocity)</em>
The question can't be solved because we can't have negative sign under square root
