Answer:  The required expression is x^2-5x+4.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given that

p(x)=x^2-1,\\\\q(x)=5(x-1).

We are to find the expression that is equivalent to (p-q)(x).

We know that for any two functions f(x) and g(x), we have

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x).

Therefore we get

(p-q)(x)\\\\=p(x)-q(x)\\\\=(x^2-1)-(5(x-1))\\\\=x^2-1-5x+5\\\\=x^2-5x+4.

Thus, the required expression is x^2-5x+4.

P(x) - q(x) = x²-1 -5(x-1)
= x²-1-5x+5
=x²-5x+4

a ferry shuttles people from one side of a river to the other. the speed of the ferry is still water is 25 mi/h. the river flows
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The Terry's resultant speed is 27mi/h

Direction of ferry=20°

Step-by-step explanation:

(-25,0) + ( 0, 9)= (-25, -9) is the vector representing the movement of the ferry

Speed of ferry = sqrt[(-25)^2 + (-9)^2]

Speed= sqrt (-625 + (-81))

Speed= sqrt(-706)

Speed=26.57mi/h

Nearest tenth,speed= 27mi/h

Tanz° = (-9/-25)

Tanz°= 0.36

Z°= tan^-1 0.36

Z= 19.80°

Nearest tenth,z=20°

How do I solve -1/3y-6=-11
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/3y - 6 = -11

-1/3y - 6 + 6 = -11 + 6

-1/3y = -5

-1/3y * 3y = -5 * 3y

-1 = -15y

-1 / -15 = -15y / -15y

y = 1/15

45 points for first most detailed / accurate answer:
Bas_tet [7]
A.) Since there are no restrictions as to the dimensions of the candle except that their volumes must equal 1 cubic foot and that each must be a cylinder, we have the freedom to decide the candles' dimensions. 

I decided to have the candles equal in volume. So, 1 cubic foot divided by 8 gives us 0.125 cubic foot, 216 in cubic inches.

With each candle having a volume of 216 cubic inches, I assign a radius to each: 0.5 in, 1.0 in, 1.5 in, 2.0 in, 2.5 in, 3.0 in, 3.5 in, and 4.0 in. Then, using the formula of the volume of a cylinder, which is:

V=pi(r^2)(h)

we then solve the corresponding height per candle. Let us let the value of pi be 3.14.

Hence, we will have the following heights (expressed to the nearest hundredths) for each of the radius: for 

r=2.5 in: h=11.01 in
r=3.0 in: h= 7.64 in
r=3.5 in: h= 5.62 in
r=4.0 in: h= 4.30 in
r=4.5 in: h= 3.40 in
r=5.0 in: h= 2.75 in
r=5.5 in: h= 2.27 in
r=6.0 in: h= 1.91 in

b. each candle should sell for $15.00 each

($20+$100)/8=$15.00

c. yes, because the candles are priced according to the volume of wax used to make them, which in this case, is just the same for all sizes
