In front of a store, there is a row of parking spaces. Cars park parallel to one another, with the front of each car facing the
Gelneren [198K]

The width used for the car spaces are taken as a multiples of the width of

the compact car spaces.

Correct response:

  • The store owners are incorrect
<h3 /><h3>Methods used to obtain the above response</h3>

Let <em>x</em><em> </em>represent the width of the cars parked compact, and let a·x represent the width of cars parked in full size spaces.

We have;

Initial space occupied = 10·x + 12·(a·x) = x·(10 + 12·a)

New space design = 16·x + 9×(a·x) = x·(16 + 9·a)

When the dimensions of the initial and new arrangement are equal, we have;

10 + 12·a = 16 + 9·a

12·a - 9·a = 16 - 10 = 6

3·a = 6

a = 6 ÷ 3 = 2

a = 2

Whereby the factor <em>a</em> < 2, such that the width of the full size space is less than twice the width of the compact spaces, by testing, we have;

10 + 12·a < 16 + 9·a

Which gives;

x·(10 + 12·a) < x·(16 + 9·a)

Therefore;

The initial total car park space is less than the space required for 16

compact spaces and 9 full size spaces, therefore; the store owners are

incorrect.

Q3) f(x) 2x^2 - 5x, g(x) = 3x^3 find g(4x)
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

g(4x) = 192x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, f(x) is irrelevant since we are simply are dealing with g(x).  We will simply replace the value of x in g(x) with 4x.  So let's do that.

g(x) = 3x^3

g(4x) = 3(4x)^3

g(4x) = 3(4^3)(x^3)

g(4x) = 3(64)(x^3)

g(4x) = 192x^3

Hence, g(4x) is 192x^3.

Cheers.

2Y - 1.7 =3.3 <br><br> HELP !!!!!
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2y + -1.7 = 3.3

Reorder the terms:

-1.7 + 2y = 3.3

Solving

-1.7 + 2y = 3.3

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '1.7' to each side of the equation.

-1.7 + 1.7 + 2y = 3.3 + 1.7

Combine like terms: -1.7 + 1.7 = 0.0

0.0 + 2y = 3.3 + 1.7

2y = 3.3 + 1.7

Combine like terms: 3.3 + 1.7 = 5

2y = 5

Divide each side by '2'.

y = 2.5

Simplifying

y = 2.5
