Answer:

Option 1 - 19, because the number of books is 95 over 4 divided by 5 over 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Samantha has a shelf that is 95 over 4 inches wide.

To find : How many books can Samantha arrange on the shelf if each book is 5 over 4 inches thick?

Solution :

The thickness of shelf = \frac{95}{4} inches

Each book thickness = \frac{5}{4} inches

Let the total number of books that could be arranged in the shelf be 'n'.

\text{Number\ of\ books\ arranged}=\dfrac{\text{Thickness\ of\ shelf}}{\text{Thickness\ of\ one\ book}}

Substitute the values,

n=\dfrac{\dfrac{95}{4}}{\dfrac{5}{4}}

n=\dfrac{95\times 4}{5\times 4}

n=\dfrac{95}{5}

n=19

Therefore, option 1 is correct.

19, because the number of books is 95 over 4 divided by 5 over 4

Solve the given differential equation by undetermined coefficients. y'' 4y = 7 sin(2x)
kherson [118]

The solution to the given differential equation is yp=−14xcos(2x)

The characteristic equation for this differential equation is:

P(s)=s2+4

The roots of the characteristic equation are:

s=±2i

Therefore, the homogeneous solution is:

yh=c1sin(2x)+c2cos(2x)

Notice that the forcing function has the same angular frequency as the homogeneous solution. In this case, we have resonance. The particular solution will have the form:

yp=Axsin(2x)+Bxcos(2x)

If you take the second derivative of the equation above for  yp , and then substitute that result,  y′′p , along with equation for  yp  above, into the left-hand side of the original differential equation, and then simultaneously solve for the values of A and B that make the left-hand side of the differential equation equal to the forcing function on the right-hand side,  sin(2x) , you will find:

A=0

B=−14

Therefore,

yp=−14xcos(2x)

−2x=x2−6 Rewrite the equation by completing the square.
V125BC [204]

Answer:

(x + 1)² = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-2x = x² - 6

We'll start by rearranging it to solve for zero:

x² + 2x - 6 = 0

The first term is already a perfect square so that's fine.  Normally, if that term had a non-square coefficient, you would need to multiply all terms a value that would change that constant to a perfect square.

Because it's already square (1), we can simply move to the next step, separating the -6 into a value that can be doubled to give us the 2, the coefficient of the second term.  That value will of course be 1, giving us:

x² + 2x + 1 - 1 - 6 = 0

Now can group our perfect square on the left and our constants on the right:

x² + 2x + 1 - 7= 0

x² + 2x + 1 = 7

(x + 1)² = 7

To check our answer, we can solve for x:

x + 1 = ± √7

x = -1 ± √7

x ≈ 1.65, -3.65

Let's try one of those in the original equation:

-2x = x² - 6

-2(1.65) = 1.65² - 6

- 3.3 = 2.72 - 6

-3.3 = -3.28

Good.  Given our rounding that difference of 2/100 is acceptable, so the answer is correct.
