Given that Nicholas has a 115 fantasy and science fiction books which is 46% of his collection.

Now we have to find what is total number of books in his collection.

Let number of books in Nicholas collection = x

then number of fantasy and science fiction books = 46% of x = 0.46x


We already know that he has 115 fantasy and science fiction books, so both values will be equal and give equation:

0.46x=115

now we can solve this equation to find the answer.

x=\frac{115}{0.46}

x= 250

Hence final answer is:

Nicholas has 250 books in his collection.

Answer:

(13)

<u>x= 8</u>

<u>y=11</u>

(14)

<u>x= 20</u>

<u>y=20.75</u>

(15)

<u>x=9</u>

<u>y=13</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

(13) 8x-1 = 11x -25

24=3x

<u>x= 8</u>

8(8)-1 +15y-48= 180

15y=165

<u>y=11</u>

(14) 7x-44 + 4x + 4= 180

11x= 220

<u>x= 20</u>

4(20)+4+39= 8y-43

123=8y-43

166=8y

<u>y=20.75</u>

(15) 12x+1=15x-26

3x=27

<u>x=9</u>

28+15(9)-26+4y-9=180

4y=52

<u>y=13</u>

An arrow is shot vertically upward at a rate of 240 feet per second from ground level. Use the projectile formula to determine w
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

After 14.92 seconds, the arrow hits the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial velocity of the arrow is, u=240\ ft/s or 73.152\ m/s

The arrow goes up and come back to the same starting position. So, initial position is same as that of final position.

Therefore, displacement of the arrow is 0 m.

The displacement of the arrow is given as:

s=ut-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}   (equation 1)

Plug all value in equation 1 and solve for t

0=73.152\timests t-\frac{1}{2} \times9.8 \times t^{2}

0=73.152\timests t-4.9 \times t^{2}

0=t(73.152-4.9 \times t)

73.152-4.9\times t=0     where t\neq 0

4.9\times t=73.152

t=\frac{73.152}{4.9}= 14.92\ s

∴ After 14.92 seconds, the arrow hits the ground.

Name the remainder for the quotient and describe or show how you found the remainder.
horsena [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression x^3 - x^2 - 17x -15) ÷ (x-5) shows that x+5 is one of the factor if the polynomial function. According to factor theorem, we will equate the factor to zero and find x;

x+5 = 0

x = -5

Next is to generate the remainder.

Substitute x = -5 into the polynomial function

P(x) = x^3 - x^2 - 17x -15

P(-5) = (-5)^3 - (-5)^2 - 17(-5) -15

P(-5) = -125-25+85-15

P(-5) = -150+70

P(-5) = -80

Hence the remainder is -80
