790-175x4=
take 175 and multiply it by 4 which gives you 700
Then subtract 700 from 790 and you get $90 after 4 years.
Your variables are 175 and 4

Over the course of a month, caught three times as many squirrels as deer. She also caught five less rabbits than squirrels. The

Westkost [7]

Answer:

The number of rabbits Katniss caught = 10 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of squirrels Katniss caught = 3 × (The number of deer she caught)

The number of rabbits Katniss caught = The number of squirrels she caught - 5

The total number of animals she caught = 10 + 4 × (The number of deer she caught)

Let the number of deer Katniss caught = D

∴ The number of squirrels she caught = 3×D

The number of rabbits Katniss caught = 3×D - 5

The total number of animals she caught = 10 + 4 × D

Therefore, we have;

The number of squirrels she caught + The number of deer she caught + The number of rabbits she caught = 10 + 4 × D

3×D + D + 3×D-5 = 10 + 4 × D

7·D - 5 = 10 + 4·D

7·D - 4·D = 10 + 5

3·D = 15

D = 15/5 = 5

∴ The number of deer Katniss caught = D = 5

The number of rabbits Katniss caught = 3×5 - 5 = 10

The number of rabbits Katniss caught = 10 rabbits.

Fine the smallest positive integer n so that

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

n = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first prove that for any constants k > 0, $n\geq 1$

$\lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{\log x^k}{x^n}=0$

The derivative

$(\log (x^k))'=\frac{kx^{k-1}}{x^k}=\frac{k}{x}$

and the derivative $(x^n)' = nx^{n-1}$

Now, applying L'Hôpital's rule we find that

$\lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{\log x^k}{x}=\lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{k}{nx^n}=0$

Now, let f be the function

$f(x)=x^8log(x^3)+x^6log(x^5)$

It is easy to see that f(x) is $O(x^n)$ only if $n\geq 9$

If $n\geq 9$

$\frac{f(x)}{x^n}=\frac{x^8log(x^3)+x^6log(x^5)}{x^n}=\frac{log(x^3)}{x^{n-8}}+\frac{log(x^5)}{x^{n-6}}$

but both n-8 and n-6 are greater than one, so

$\lim_{x \to \infty}\frac{f(x)}{x^n}=0$

and f is $O(x^n)$

On the other hand, if $n \leq 8$ then

$\frac{f(x)}{x^n}=x^{8-n}log(x^3)+x^{6-n}log(x^5)$

but 8-n is greater or equal than one, so

$\lim_{x \to \infty}\frac{f(x)}{x^n}=\infty$

and so f(x) in not $O(x^n)$

Is y= - 4x + 1 proportional

maw [93]

Answer:

Proportional quantities can be described by the equation y = kx, where k is a constant ratio. You can tell that the relationship is directly proportional by looking at the graph. So yes it does equal a proportional relationship.

Hope this helps :)
