A mail distribution center processes as many as 150,000 peices of mail each day. The mail is sent via ground and air. Each land

carrier takes 1800 peices per load and each air carrier takes 1500 per load. The loading equipment is able to handle as 150 loads per day. Let x be the number of loads by air carriers. Which system of inequalities represents the system?
A: 1800x + 1500y ≥ 150,000 x+y ≥ 150
B: 1800x + 1500y ≤ 150,000 x+y ≤ 150
C: 1500x + 1800y ≤ 150,000 x+y ≤ 150
D: 1500x + 1800y ≥ 150,000 x+y ≥ 150

X = air carriers, y = land carriers

1800x + 1500y < = 150,000
x + y < = 150

Steve and Abby purchased a set of vases to place on a 12 foot long mantel above their fireplace. They want to place one vase 1/4

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: One vase should be placed 3 feet from the end of the mantel and the other vase should be placed 9 feet from the same end.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that lenght of the mantel above their fireplace is 12 feet.

They want to place one vase $\frac{1}{4}$ of the distance from one end of the mantel. This distance in feet is:

$distance_{vase1}=(12feet)(\frac{1}{4})\\\\distance_{vase1}=3feet$

They want to place the other vase $\frac{3}{4}$ of the distance from the same end of the mantel. Therefore, this distance in feet is:

$distance_{vase2}=(12feet)(\frac{3}{4})\\\\distance_{vase2}=\frac{36feet}{4}\\\\distance_{vase2}=9feet$

Therefore, one vase should be placed 3 feet from the end of the mantel and the other vase should be placed 9 feet from the same end.

A number t decreased by 2 is at least 7

9966 [12]

Answer:
t - 2 ≥ 7; t ≥ 9

Explanation:
“a number t” = t
“decreased by 2” = - 2
“Is at least 7” = ≥ 7
So, t - 2 ≥ 7

To solve for t - 2 ≥ 7, add 2 to both sides of the equation

t - 2 ≥ 7
t - 2 + 2 ≥ 7 + 2
t ≥ 9

So, t ≥ 9

Write the equation of a sine or cosine function to describe the graph.

juin [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a trigonometric function is

$y = a \sin(bx + c) + d$

or

$y = a \: cos(bx + c) + d$

Let define some variables,

D is the midline, this refers to the midpoint of the highest y value and lowest y value. Some textbooks call it the vertical translations but it is the same thing.

A is the amplitude. The amplitude is the distance from the midline to the highest y value. Some distance is non negative, the formula for the amplitude is

$|a|$

The period is how often the wave repeats itself on a interval.

Period can't be negative so the formula for period is

$\frac{2 \pi}{ |b| }$

To find the period, look at the extreme points.

The phase shift tells us if the sinusoid have been shifted to the right or left. The formula for the phase shift

$bx + c = 0$

Solving for x gives us

$x = \frac{ - c}{b}$

If our x is negative, we have a phase shift to the right

If our x is Positve, we have a phase shift to the left.

Let solve this equation, Let use Sine since sin(0)=0,

The smallest y value here is 0, and the highest is 2, so the amplitude is 1.

$d = 1$

Next, the distance from the max to the midline is 1, as well the min to the midline is also 1.

So

$a = 1$

We have minimum at 0, and 8, so our period is 8.

$\frac{2\pi}{b} = 8$

Solve for b,

$\frac{\pi}{4} = b$

Plug this in the equation.

$1 \sin( \frac{\pi}{4} x) +$

$y = \sin( \frac{\pi}{4} x) + 1$

The graph passes through (4,2) so let see if that holds true for our equation

$2 = \sin( \frac{\pi}{4} (4)) + 1$

$2 = \sin(\pi) + 1$

$2 = 0 + 1$

$2 = 1$

This doesn't hold true, so we must have a phase shift

Notice that

$\sin( \frac{\pi}{2} ) = 1$

So if we shift this pi/2 to the right, we can get our equation to be true.

$y = \sin( \frac{\pi}{4} x - \frac{\pi}{2} ) + 1$

This equation works so our equation is

$y = \sin( \frac{\pi}{4} x - \frac{\pi}{2} ) + 1$
