In a small town in the Himalayas, the average snowfall each month is 6 inches. July is the month with the lowest average snowfal

l, of 1 inch. Construct a function that models this behavior. During what period is there more than 10 inches of snowfall?

The function that models the above behavior is given as:

f(x) = ACos(B(x + C)) + 6 ..... .......i

where x = 1 (that is January)

D (Average Snowfall) = 6.

Hence, the amplitude (A) is given as:
A = 6-1

= 5

<h3>What is a mathematical function?</h3>

A mathematical function is a function comprising of different variables that    represent different factors or events and the relationships between them.

<h3>
During what period is there more than 10 inches of snowfall?</h3><h3 />

Recall that in a year we have 12 months. Hence, P = 12

→ P = (2π) /.B → (2π)/B = 12 → B = π/6

Taking the values of A and B and plugging them in, we ahve:

F(x) = 5 cos (π/6(x + C)) + 6................ii

This means that in July, we'll have

x = 7 and f(x) = 1

Therefore,

1 = 5cos ((π/6) (7 + C) + 6 → 5 Cos  ((π/6) (7 + C) →  -5cos ((π/6) (7 + C)

= -1

→   ((π/6) (7 + C) = π

→ 7 + C = 6

→ C = -1

Taking equation ii, we have

F(x) = 5cos ((π6) (x -1)) + 6

F (x) > 10

Therefore

5cos ((π/6) (x-1) + 6 > 10

→  cos ((π/6) (x-1) + 6 > 4/5

→  (π/6) (x-1)  > Cos⁻¹ (4/5)

(π/6) (x-1)  < 0.6435 and

(π/6) (x-1)  > 5.6397

→ x < 2.23 and x > 11.77

The interpretation is that upwards of ten inches of snow fall in January, February, November, and December.

What weight of dry substance is in 50g of a 3% substance solution? What weight of an 8% solution can we have with the same weigh
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

4.5 g 56.25 g Since the only type of measurement mentioned in this question is weight or mass, I'll assume that the percentage concentration is % m/m (mass/mass). For that type of concentration measurement, simply multiple the percentage by the total mass to get the mass of the desired substance. So 150 g * 3% = 150 g * 0.03 = 4.5g For the amount of 8% solution with the same amount of dry substance, there's 2 ways of calculating the mass of solution. First, use the ratio of percentages, multiplied by the mass of the original solution to get the desired amount of new solution: 3/8 * 150 g = 56.35 g Or calculate it from scratch, like 4.5/X = 8/100 450/X = 8 450 = 8X 56.25 = X In both cases, the result is that you desire 56.25 grams of 8% solution.

What is the midpoint of (-23,-14) and (-18,2)
zloy xaker [14]

Given two coordinates point 1 as (-23,-14) and point 2 as(-18,2).

To find the midpoint we would use the formula below;

\text{midpoint(x,y)}=(\frac{x_1+x_2_{}_{}}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

Where x1=-23, x2=-18, y1=-14, y2=2

We would substitute the values into the midpoint formula.

\begin{gathered} \text{midpoint =(}\frac{-23-18}{2},\frac{-14+2}{2}) \\ =(-\frac{41}{2},-6) \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answer is

\text{midpoint}=(-\frac{41}{2},-6)

5x +7 y=-17<br> 4x – 3y = -5<br> Substitute.
Bond [772]

Answer:

(x,y) = (-2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We start off by substituting the value of "x".

5x+7y=-17

x=-\frac{5}{4} + \frac{3}{4}y

We then solve 55(-\frac{5}{4}+\frac{3}{4}y ) +7y= -17

y=-1 *Substitute the value of "y"

x= --\frac{5}{4}+\frac{3}{4}x(-1)

x=-2

\left \{ {{-17=-17} \atop {-5=-5}} \right. This works.
