A glacier flows at a rate of 20 meters per day. What is the flow rate in kilometers per year?

1 answer:

4 0

7.3 km/y
at least if i did this correctly but that's always a stretch.

because it takes 50 days to complete a km
so 365/50 = 7.3

A principal of $950 is invested in an account at 7 percent simple interest per year. What is the amount of the principal after 5

Nataly_w [17]

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Simple Interest Earned Amount}
\\\\
A=P(1+rt)\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to& \$950\\
r=rate\to 7\%\to \frac{7}{100}\to &0.07\\
t=years\to &5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=950(1+0.07\cdot 5)\implies A=950(1.35)\implies A=1282.5$

What is the length of the arc on a circle with radius 20 in. intercepted by a 15° angle? Use 3.14 for π . Round the answer to th

Fofino [41]

We know, length of arc = Ф/360 * 2πr
= 15/360 * (2 * 3.14 * 20)
= 1/24 * (125.6)
= 5.23

In short, Your Answer would be 5.23 Inches

Hope this helps!

Perform the following operations s and prove closure. Show your work.

nadezda [96]

Answer:

1. $\frac{x}{x+3}+\frac{x+2}{x+5}$ = $\frac{2x^2+10x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)}\\$

2. $\frac{x+4}{x^2+5x+6}*\frac{x+3}{x^2-16}$ = $\frac{1}{(x+2)(x-4)}$

3. $\frac{2}{x^2-9}-\frac{3x}{x^2-5x+6}$ = $\frac{-3x^2-7x-4}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}$

4. $\frac{x+4}{x^2-5x+6}\div\frac{x^2-16}{x+3}$ = $\frac{1}{(x-2)(x-4)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $\frac{x}{x+3}+\frac{x+2}{x+5}$

Taking LCM of (x+3) and (x+5) which is: (x+3)(x+5)

$=\frac{x(x+5)+(x+2)(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+5)}\\=\frac{x^2+5x+(x)(x+3)+2(x+3)}{(x+3)(x+5)} \\=\frac{x^2+5x+x^2+3x+2x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)} \\=\frac{x^2+x^2+5x+3x+2x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)} \\=\frac{2x^2+10x+6}{(x+3)(x+5)}\\$

Prove closure: The value of x≠-3 and x≠-5 because if there values are -3 and -5 then the denominator will be zero.

2. $\frac{x+4}{x^2+5x+6}*\frac{x+3}{x^2-16}$

Factors of x^2-16 = (x)^2 -(4)^2 = (x-4)(x+4)

Factors of x^2+5x+6 = x^2+3x+2x+6 = x(x+3)+2(x+3) =(x+2)(x+3)

Putting factors

$=\frac{x+4}{(x+3)(x+2)}*\frac{x+3}{(x-4)(x+4)}\\\\=\frac{1}{(x+2)(x-4)}$

Prove closure: The value of x≠-2 and x≠4 because if there values are -2 and 4 then the denominator will be zero.

3. $\frac{2}{x^2-9}-\frac{3x}{x^2-5x+6}$

Factors of x^2-9 = (x)^2-(3)^2 = (x-3)(x+3)

Factors of x^2-5x+6 = x^2-2x-3x+6 = x(x-2)+3(x-2) =(x-2)(x+3)

Putting factors

$\frac{2}{(x+3)(x-3)}-\frac{3x}{(x+3)(x-2)}$

Taking LCM of (x-3)(x+3) and (x-2)(x+3) we get (x-3)(x+3)(x-2)

$\frac{2(x-2)-3x(x+3)(x-3)}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}$

$=\frac{2(x-2)-3x(x+3)}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}\\=\frac{2x-4-3x^2-9x}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}\\=\frac{-3x^2-9x+2x-4}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}\\=\frac{-3x^2-7x-4}{(x+3)(x-3)(x-2)}$

Prove closure: The value of x≠3 and x≠-3 and x≠2 because if there values are -3,3 and 2 then the denominator will be zero.

4. $\frac{x+4}{x^2-5x+6}\div\frac{x^2-16}{x+3}$

Factors of x^2-5x+6 = x^2-3x-2x+6 = x(x-3)-2(x-3) = (x-2)(x-3)

Factors of x^2-16 = (x)^2 -(4)^2 = (x-4)(x+4)

$\frac{x+4}{(x-2)(x+3)}\div\frac{(x-4)(x+4)}{x+3}$

Converting ÷ sign into multiplication we will take reciprocal of the second term

$=\frac{x+4}{(x-2)(x+3)}*\frac{x+3}{(x-4)(x+4)}\\=\frac{1}{(x-2)(x-4)}$

Prove Closure: The value of x≠2 and x≠4 because if there values are 2 and 4 then the denominator will be zero.
