Answer:

Mr. Sims would need 17 and a half (17.5) cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Sims is mixing cement to secure a mailbox post.

The requirement of  water for each pound of cement = 5 cups

Mr. Sims is mixing cement = 3.5 pounds

Here we use unitary method

In 1 pound required water = 5 cups

in 3.5 pounds required water = 5 × 3.5 = 17.5 cups

Mr. Sims would need 17 and a half (17.5) cups of water .

The data in the table shows the population P(x) of a particular species at time x. Determine a linear model and predict the popu
mrs_skeptik [129]

The regression equation that shows the population P(x) is given as follows:

P(x) = 3.02x + 7.81.

With the model, the prediction for the population in year 88 is of 273.

<h3>How to find the equation of linear regression using a calculator?</h3>

To find the equation, we need to insert the points (x,y) in the calculator.

For this problem, the points are given as follows:

(0,7), (5,17), (23,84), (31, 107), (45, 143), (60, 182), (68, 217), (79, 249).

Inserting these points in the calculator, the equation is given by:

P(x) = 3.02x + 7.81.

The prediction for the population in year 88 is given by:

P(88) = 3.02(88) + 7.81 = 273.

Give me a correct answer, My answer probably wrong.
Georgia [21]

Hello!

This is a problem about the general solution of a differential equation.

What we can first do here is separate the variables so that we have the same variable for each side (ex. dy with the y term and dx with the x term).

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{x-1}{3y^2}

3y^2dy=x-1dx

Then, we can integrate using the power rule to get rid of the differentiating terms, remember to add the constant of integration, C, to at least one side of the resulting equation.

y^3=\frac{1}{2}x^2-x+C

Then here, we just solve for y and we have our general solution.

y=\sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{2}x^2-x+C}

We can see that answer choice D has an equivalent equation, so answer choice D is the correct answer.

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is a quadratic equation that has the roots x = 2 and x = −7? (4 points)
crimeas [40]

Answer:

x^2 + 5x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

We can assume that if there is 2 options for x, this is a quadratic equation that equals 0.

Therefore, we can put this into brackets as one bracket must equal 0.

(x - 2) (x + 7)

After this we expand, which is a process easier to search up

The answer is:

x^2 + 7x - 2x - 14

We can simplify this to:

x^2 + 5x - 14

x^2 represents x squared in case you were wondering

Therefore, the answer is:

x^2 + 5x - 14
