The types of problems found on ancient papyri, books, and tablets focuses primarily on problems that relate to daily life. The solution methods for many ancient cultures are generally verbal, with mathematical statements written out in words. Why did most ancient cultures primarily write out their mathematical texts in words?

Answer:

Most ancient societies had symbols to represent numbers, but they did not have symbols to represent operations or unknown quantities. Thus, the problems and solutions to the problems had to be written in word form.

Answer:

The following are the correct statements regarding mathematics in the Egyptian, Chinese, and Babylonian cultures:

Both Egyptian and Chinese number systems use base 10.

All three cultures had unique symbolism to represent their numbers . (Earlier symbols were used to depict things)

There are two primary sources for ancient Egyptian mathematics  

(The primary sources are the Rhind Papyrus and the Moscow Papyrus)

A hot air balloon is currently at a height of 900 feet. The balloon is descending by 10 feet minute. Find a function for the bal
mylen [45]

Answer:

y=-10x+900

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of minutes

y ----> the balloon's height in feet

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept

In this problem we have that

The slope is equal to

m=-10\ \frac{ft}{min} ----> is negative because is a decreasing function

b=900\ ft

Remember that the y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

In this context the y-intercept is the height of the balloon when the time is equal to zero (initial height)

substitute

y=-10x+900

Biologists have found that the number of chirps some types of cricket make per minute depends upon the temperature this relation
Alex Ar [27]

Answer: Crickets make 172 chirps/min at 80 degrees Fahrenheit

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Using the point slope formulae for Linear functions , we have that

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where x  and y are two points  representing the  temperature and chirps /min respectively

And  

m= slope

Step 2 : Finding the slope , m

where x1=60

           y1=92

           x2= 75

           y2=152

m= (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

= (152- 92)/(75-60)

=60/15 =4

Bringing down the point/slope formula and imputing the known values to find our equation to show the relationship cricket make per minute and  the temperature

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 92= 4(x - 60)

y - 92 = 4x -240

y = 4x - 240 + 92

y = 4x - 148

Step 3

To find the number of chirps be per minute (y) if the temperature is 80 degrees Fahrenheit( x)

y = 4(80) - 160

y = 320 - 148

y = 172 chirps/min at 80 degrees Fahrenheit

Paul owes Paula 35 cents and has a pocket full of 5-cent coins, 10-cent coins, and 25-cent coins that he can use to pay her. Wha
kykrilka [37]
So, what is the case in which he uses the least coins? can he use 1 coin? no, there isn't a 35 cent coin. can he use 2 coins? yes! he can use 25+10 cent coins!

now, the largest number of coins means the coins of the smallest value: so using only 5 cent coins. How many would this be?

we have to divide:

35/5=7

so we would use 7 coins.

And the difference is 5: 7-2 is 5.
