To represent the length of the string, we can use the variable y. 

y=4x

Y is four times longer than X. 

Hope this helps!

A chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 8% vinegar, and the second brand co
Flura [38]

Let <em>f</em> and <em>s</em> denote the amounts of the <u>f</u>irst and <u>s</u>econd brands that the chef is going to use.

She wants to end up with 290 mL, so

<em>f</em> + <em>s</em> = 290

Each mL of the first brand contains 0.08 mL of vinegar, and each mL of the second contains 0.13 mL of vinegar. The final mixture should have a concentration of 12% vinegar, so that it contains 0.12 • 290 mL = 34.8 mL of vinegar, and

0.08<em>f</em> + 0.13<em>s</em> = 34.8

Solve for <em>f</em> and <em>s</em> :

<em>f</em> + <em>s</em> = 290   →   <em>s</em> = 290 - <em>f</em>

0.08<em>f</em> + 0.13 (290 - <em>f </em>) = 34.8

0.08<em>f</em> + 37.7 - 0.13<em>f</em> = 34.8

0.05<em>f</em> = 2.9

<em>f</em> = 58

<em>s</em> = 290 - 58

<em>s</em> = 232

Can anyone explain how to differentiate this ? (2x^2+3)sin5x
Ksju [112]
Hello,

(u*v)'=u'v+uv'
u=2x²+3 ==> u'=4x
v=sin 5x ==>v'=cos 5x *5

((2x²+3 sin (5x))'=4x* sin (5x) +(2x²+3)*cos (5x) * 5

A city places 18 trash cans along a 13.5 miles stretch of beach. The trash cans are placed an equal distance apart.
mylen [45]

Answer:

The cans are spaced 0.75 miles from each other.

Step-by-step explanation

Since the trash cans are placed at an equal distance we need to divide the total distance they cover by the number of cans that are spread across that distance in order to know how far apart they are. This is shown below:

distance between cans = (total distance)/(number of cans)

distance between cans = 13.5/18

distance between cans = 0.75 miles

The cans are spaced 0.75 miles from each other.
