Answer:

-3 2/7 per day

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 3/10 then put that all over 3 1/2

-23/10 divided by 7/2

-23/10 *21/7 = -23/7= -3 2/7 per day

the 10 cross out and make a 5

i should be right

Q2 - With decimals
Mila [183]

Answer:

Simplify the following algebraic expressions.

- 6x + 5 + 12x -6

2(x - 9) + 6(-x + 2) + 4x

3x2 + 12 + 9x - 20 + 6x2 - x

(x + 2)(x + 4) + (x + 5)(-x - 1)

1.2(x - 9) - 2.3(x + 4)

(x2y)(xy2)

(-x2y2)(xy2)

Solution

Group like terms and simplify.

- 6x + 5 + 12x -6 = (- 6x + 12x) + (5 - by

Solution

Use rules of exponential to simplify the numerator first.

(a b2)(a3 b) / (a2 b3) = (a4 b3) / (a2 b3)

Rewrite as follows.

(a4 / a2) (b3 / b3)

Use rule of quotient of exponentials to simplify.

= a2

Rewrite as follows.

(21 x5) / (3 x4) = (21 / 3)(x5 / x4)

Simplify.

= 7 x

(6 x4)(4 y2) / [ (3 x2)(16 y) ]

Multiply terms in numerator and denominator and simplify.

(6 x4)(4 y2) / [ (3 x2)(16 y) ] = (24 x4 y2) / (48 x2 y)

Rewrite as follows.

= (24 / 48)(x4 / x2)(y2 / y)

Simplify.

= (1 / 2) x2 y

Factor 4 out in the numerator.

(4x - 12) / 4 = 4(x - 3) / 4

Simplify.

= x - 3

Factor -5 out in the numerator.

(-5x - 10) / (x + 2) = - 5 (x + 2) / (x + 2)

Simplify.

= - 5

Factor numerator and denominator as follows.

(x2 - 4x - 12) / (x2 - 2x - 24) = [(x - 6)(x + 2)] / [(x - 6)(x + 4)]

Simplify.

= (x + 2) / (x + 4) , for all x not equal to 6

Solve for x the following linear equations.

2x = 6

6x - 8 = 4x + 4

4(x - 2) = 2(x + 3) + 7

0.1 x - 1.6 = 0.2 x + 2.3

- x / 5 = 2

(x - 4) / (- 6) = 3

(-3x + 1) / (x - 2) = -3

x / 5 + (x - 1) / 3 = 1/5

Solution

Divide both sides of the equation by 2 and simplify.

2x / 2 = 6 / 2

x = 3

Add 8 to both sides and group like terms.

6x - 8 + 8 = 4x + 4 + 8

6x = 4x + 12

Add - 4x to both sides and group like terms.

6x - 4x = 4x + 12 - 4x

2x = 12

Divide both sides by 2 and simplify.

x = 6

Expand brackets.

4x - 8 = 2x + 6 + 7

Add 8 to both sides and group like terms.

4x - 8 + 8 = 2x + 6 + 7 + 8

4x = 2x + 21

Add - 2x to both sides and group like terms.

4x - 2x = 2x + 21 - 2x

2x = 21

Divide both sides by 2.

x = 21 / 2

Add 1.6 to both sides and simplify.

0.1 x - 1.6 = 0.2 x + 2.3

0.1 x - 1.6 + 1.6 = 0.2 x + 2.3 + 1.6

0.1 x = 0.2 x + 3.9

Add - 0.2 x to both sides and simplify.

0.1 x - 0.2 x = 0.2 x + 3.9 - 0.2 x

- 0.1 x = 3.9

Divide both sides by - 0.1 and simplify.

x = - 39

Multiply both sides by - 5 and simplify.

- 5(- x / 5) = - 5(2

What is the y intercept of the line - 4 x + 6 y = - 12?

Solution

Set x = 0 in the equation and solve for y.

- 4 (0) + 6 y = - 12

6 y = - 12

y = - 2

y intercept: (0 , - 2)

What is the x intercept of the line - 3 x + y = 3?

Solution

Set y = 0 in the equation and solve for x.

- 3 x + 0 = 3

x = -1

x intercept: (-1 , 0)

What is point of intersection of the lines x - y = 3 and - 5 x - 2 y = - 22?

Solution

A point of intersection of two lines is solution to the equations of both lines. To find the point of intersection of the two lines, we need to solve the system of equations x - y = 3 and -5 x - 2 y = -22 simultaneously. Equation x - y = 3 can be solved for x to give

x = 3 + y

Substitute x by 3 + y in the equation - 5 x - 2 y = -22 and solve for y

-5 (3 + y) - 2 y = - 22

-15 - 5 y - 2 y = - 22

-7 y = - 22 + 15

-7 y = - 7

y = 1

Substitute x by 3 + y in the equation -5 x - 2 y = - 22 and solve for y

x = 3 + y = 3 + 1 = 4

Point of intersection: (4 , 1)

For what value of the constant k does the line - 4 x + k y = 2 pass through the point (2,-3)?

Solution

For the line to pass through the point (2,-3), the ordered pair (2,-3) must be a solution to the equation of the line. We substitute x by 2 abd y by - 3 in the equation.

- 4(2) + k(-3) = 2

Solve the for k to obtain

k = - 10 / 3

What is the slope of the line with equation y - 4 = 10?

Solution

Write the given equation in slope intercept form y = m x + b and identify the slope m.

y = 14

It is a horizontal line and therefore the slope is equal to 0.

What is the slope of the line with equation 2 x = -8?

Solution

The above equation may be written as

x = - 4

It is a vertical line and therefore the slope is undefined.

Find the x and y intercepts of the line with equation x = - 3?

Solution

The above is a vertical line with x intercept only given by

(-3 , 0)

Find the x and y intercepts of the line with equation 3 y - 6 = 3?

Solution

The given equation may be written as

y = 3

The above is a horizontal line with y intercept only given by

(0 , 3)

What is the slope of a line parallel to the x axis?

Solution

A line parallel to the x axis is a horizontal line and its slope is equal to 0.

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the x axis?

Solution

A line perpendicular to the x axis is a vertical line and its slope is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -22 and solve for y

-5 (3 + y) - 2 y = - 22

-15 - 5 y - 2 y = - 22

-7 y = - 22 + 15

-7 y = - 7

y = 1

The weekly incomes of a large group of executives are normally distributed with a mean of $2,000 and a standard deviation of $10
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The z-score for an income of $2,100 is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

If X \sim N (µ, σ²), then  Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}, is a standard normal variate with mean, E (Z) = 0 and Var (Z) = 1. That is, Z \sim N (0, 1).

The distribution of these z-variate is known as the standard normal distribution.

Given:

µ = $2,000

σ = $100

<em>x</em> = $2,100

Compute the <em>z</em>-score for the raw score <em>x</em> = 2100 as follows:

Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{2100-2000}{100}=\frac{100}{100}=1

Thus, the z-score for an income of $2,100 is 1.

The archway of the main entrance of a university is modeled by the quadratic equation
Scilla [17]

Answer:

B. (1,5) and (5.25, 3.94)

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is where the 2 equations intersect.

We need to solve the following system of equations:

y = -x^2 + 6x

4y = 21 - x

From the second equation:

x = 21 - 4y

Plug this into the first equation:

y = -(21 - 4y)^2 + 6(21 - 4y)

y = -(441 - 168y + 16y^2)+  126 - 24y

y = -441 + 168y - 16y^2 +  126 - 24y

16y^2 + y - 168y + 24y + 441 - 126 = 0

16y^2 - 143y + 315 = 0

y = [-(-143) +/- sqrt ((-143)^2 - 4 * 16 * 315)]/ (2*16)

y = 5, 3.938

When y = 5:

x = 21 - 4(5) = 1

When y = 3.938

x = 21 - 4(3.938) = 5.25.
