Mathematics

damaskus [11]3 years ago

Answer:

k = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

let the points be A(-2,5), B(2,8), C(6,K).

for the points to be collinear slope of line AB maust be equal to line BC.

slope of line AB = \frac{8-5}{2+2}=\frac{3}{4}

slope of line BC = \frac{k-8}{6-2}=\frac{k-8}{4}

therefore \frac{k-8}{4}= \frac{3}{4}

therefore k = 8 + 3

k = 11

Find the volume of the solid under the plane 5x + 9y − z = 0 and above the region bounded by y = x and y = x4.
svp [43]
<span>For the plane, we have z = 5x + 9y

For the region, we first find its boundary curves' points of intersection.
x = x^4 ==> x = 0, 1.

Since x > x^4 for y in [0, 1],

The volume of the solid equals

\int\limits^1_0 { \int\limits_{x^4}^x {(5x+9y)} \, dy } \, dx = \int\limits^1_0 {\left[5xy+ \frac{9}{2} y^2\right]_{x^4}^{x}} \, dx  \\  \\ =\int\limits^1_0 {\left[\left(5x(x)+ \frac{9}{2} (x)^2\right)-\left(5x(x^4)+ \frac{9}{2} (x^4)^2\right)\right]} \, dx  \\  \\ =\int\limits^1_0 {\left(5x^2+ \frac{9}{2} x^2-5x^5- \frac{9}{2} x^8\right)} \, dx =\int\limits^1_0 {\left( \frac{19}{2} x^2-5x^5- \frac{9}{2} x^8\right)} \, dx \\  \\ =\left[ \frac{19}{6} x^3- \frac{5}{6} x^6- \frac{1}{2} x^9\right]^1_0

=\frac{19}{6} - \frac{5}{6} - \frac{1}{2} =\bold{ \frac{11}{6} \ cubic \ units}</span>

45.4/2=22.6

For side 2

Gusset plate is 1....
take 5.75 and divide it by 2 =2.875
Take 3.333/2 = 1.6665

A supply company manufactures copy machines. The unit cost C (the cost in dollars to make each copy machine) depends on the numb
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer: \$18,629

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The unit cost is given by

C(x)=0.6x^2-168x+30,389

find the derivative of the unit cost and equate it to zero to obtain the minimum value

C'(x)=0.6\times 2x-168\\\Rightarrow 0.6\times 2x-168=0\\\Rightarrow 1.2x=168\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{168}{1.2}\\\\\Rightarrow x=140

Substitute 140 for x in the cost function, we get

C(140)=0.6[140]^2-168(140)+30,389\\C(140)=11,760-23,520+30,389\\C(140)=\$18,629

Margie babysits for two families. Mr. and Mrs. Smith pay her $6.50 an hour to babysit their son, Shea. Mr. and Mrs. Jones pay Ma
rodikova [14]

Answer:

A) \$ 6.5\timesx is the expression to represent total amount of money she earns babysitting for Smith family.

B) \$45.5 she will earn for Smith family for 7 hours

C) It would take 12 \ hrs for Margie to make \$78 when babysitting for the Smith family

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith pay Margie \$6.50 an hour to babysit their son, Shea.

Mr. and Mrs. Jones pay Margie $8 an hour to babysit their children, Sarah, Susan, and Dawn.

Let x be number of hours.

Solving for Part A.

Amount of Money earn from Smith family = Pay per hour \times Number of hours =\$ 6.5 \times x= \$ 6.5x

Solving for Part B.

x=7

Margie earns from smith family for 7 hours = \$ 6.5x=\$6.5\times7=\$45.5

Solving for part C.

Margie earned = \$ 78

To find number of hours

No of hour Margie has done babysitting for Smith family x=\frac{\$78}{\$6.5}=12 \ hrs
