A sum of money is divided in the ratio 2 : 3 : 7 .Given the largest share is $112,calculate the smallest share.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$32

Step-by-step explanation:

A sum of money is divided in the ratio 2:3:7.

Let the share of each individual be represented by 2x,3x,7x respectively.

The largest share (7x) is given as $112.

$7x = 112$

$=>x = \frac{112}{7}$

$=>x = 16$

So the respective shares are $2\times16,3\times16,7\times16$

In other words, the shares are 32,48,112.

So the smallest share is $32

Last week, the price of cherries at the corner deli was $4.99 per pound. This week, cherries at the same deli are on sale at a 1

ANEK [815]

Answer:

Your answer should be 15.905625, if it's not 15 percent off per pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 4.99 x 3.75 then multiply that answer (18.7125) by .15

That will leave you with 2.806875, which then you subtract that from 18.7125

That will give you your answer, 15.90...

If x = (√2 + 1)^-1/3 then the value of x^3 + 1/x^3 is

Shtirlitz [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: x = {√(2) + 1}^(-1/3)

Asked: x³+(1/x³) = ?

Solution:

We have, x = {√(2) + 1}^(-1/3)

⇛x = [1/{√(2) + 1}^(1/3)]

[since, (a⁻ⁿ = 1/aⁿ)]

Cubing on both sides, then

⇛(x)³ = [1{/√(2) + 1}^(1/3)]³

⇛(x)³ = [(1)³/{√(2) + 1}^(1/3 *3)]

⇛(x)³ = [(1)³/{√(2) + 1}^(1*3/3)]

⇛(x)³ = [(1)³/{√(2) + 1}^(3/3)]

⇛(x * x * x) = [(1*1*1)/{√(2) + 1)^1]

⇛x³ = [1/{√(2) + 1}]

Here, we see that on RHS, the denominator is √(2)+1. We know that the rationalising factor of √(a)+b = √(a)-b. Therefore, the rationalising factor of √(2)+1 = √(2) - 1. On rationalising the denominator them

⇛x³ = [1/{√(2) + 1}] * [{√(2) - 1}/{√(2) - 1}]

⇛x³ = [1{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) + 1}{√(2) - 1}]

Multiply the numerator with number outside of the bracket with numbers on the bracket.

⇛x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) + 1}{√(2) - 1}]

Now, Comparing the denominator on RHS with (a+b)(a-b), we get

a = √2
b = 1

Using identity (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b², we get

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/{√(2)² - (1)²}]

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/{√(2*2) - (1*1)}]

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/(2-1)]

⇛x³ = [{√(2) - 1}/1]

Therefore, x³ = √(2) - 1 → → →Eqn(1)

Now, 1/x³ = [1/{√(2) - 1]

⇛1/x³ = [1/{√(2) - 1] * [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) + 1}]

⇛1/x³ = [1{√(2) + 1}/{√(2) - 1}{√(2) + 1}]

⇛1/x³ = {√(2) + 1}/[{√(2) - 1}{√(2) + 1}]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2)² - (1)²}]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/{√(2*2) - (1*1)}]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/(2-1)]

⇛1/x³ = [{√(2) + 1}/1]

Therefore, 1/x³ = √(2) + 1 → → →Eqn(2)

On adding equation (1) and equation (2), we get

x³ + (1/x³) = √(2) -1 + √(2) + 1

Cancel out -1 and 1 on RHS.

⇛x³ + (1/x³) = √(2) + √(2)

⇛x³ + (1/x³) = 2

Therefore, x³ + (1/x³) = 2

Answer: Hence, the required value of x³ + (1/x³) is 2.

Y=-1/3x^2-4x-5 in vertex form

grigory [225]

Answer:

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}(x+6)^2+7$ [Vertex form]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}x^2-4x-5$

We need to find the vertex form which is.,

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

where $(h,k)$ represents the co-ordinates of vertex.

We apply completing square method to do so.

We have

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}x^2-4x-5$

First of all we make sure that the leading co-efficient is =1.

In order to make the leading co-efficient is =1, we multiply each term with -3.

$-3\times Y=-3\times\frac{1}{3}x^2-(-3)\times4x-(-3)\times 5$

$-3Y=x^2+12x+15$

Isolating $x^2$ and $x$ terms on one side.

Subtracting both sides by 15.

$-3Y-15=x^2+12x-15-15$

$-3Y-15=x^2+12x$

In order to make the right side a perfect square trinomial, we will take half of the co-efficient of $x$ term, square it and add it both sides side.

square of half of the co-efficient of $x$ term = $(\frac{1}{2}\times 12)^2=(6)^2=36$

Adding 36 to both sides.

$-3Y-15+36=x^2+12x+36$

$-3Y+21=x^2+12x+36$

Since $x^2+12x+36$ is a perfect square of $(x+6)$ , so, we can write as:

$-3Y+21=(x+6)^2$

Subtracting 21 to both sides:

$-3Y+21-21=(x+6)^2-21$

$-3Y=(x+6)^2-21$

Dividing both sides by -3.

$\frac{-3Y}{-3}=\frac{(x+6)^2}{-3}-\frac{21}{-3}$

$Y=-\frac{1}{3}(x+6)^2+7$ [Vertex form]
