As a ratio, 5:86 represents students to teachers

We can set up the equation as 5/86=x/9460

Multiply 9460 to both sides

5x9460/86=x

47300/86=x

x=550

There are 550 professors

Which number is the common difference of the sequence -92,-74,-54,-38,-20?
Mkey [24]
The common difference if there is one is the constant difference that occurs between any term and the term before it.... in this case:

There is no common difference, 

dx=18,20,16,18  the difference or velocity is not constant...

d2x=2, -4,2  the acceleration is not constant...

d3x=-6,6  the thrust is not constant  

Now we might be tempted to say that:

d4x=12 and say that that is constant and we COULD make a quartic equation fit all the data points, but without further data points in the sequence there is no mathematical proof that the quartic equation would produce accurate data points outside of the range given...

And solving a system of five equations for five unknowns is tedious for such a problem...a^4+bx^3+cx^2+dx+e=y

The area of a rectangle is expressed as x4 - 9y2. What are the possible dimensions of the rectangle?
AnnyKZ [126]

This is a stupid question.  The teacher who asked this needs to go back to school.

A = x⁴ - 9y²

That's going to be a number.  As long as it's positive we can choose any length for our rectangle L and we can compute the width by W=A/L.   So the correct answer is the dimensions are L by  (x⁴ - 9y²)/L.

They don't want the correct answer.  They want you to factor this expression.  We'll do it, but don't believe for a second this factoring somehow constrains the possible dimensions of some rectangle.

We use the difference of two squares, a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)

A = x⁴ - 9y² = (x²)² - (3y)² = (x²+3y)(x²-3y)

Answer: x²+3y  by  x²-3y
