F(m)=20+0.05m
f(m)=cost(c)
20=initial cost and will be the y-intercept
0.05=the cost per mile and will be the slope
m=the number of miles driven

All you had to do was plug in the value for c or b and solve. You can tell this is most likely correct because you see patterns for both variables. C is going up by threes, while b is going up by nines.

Sally can paint a room in 9 hours while it takes Steve 3 hours to paint the same room. How long would it take them to paint the

Archy [21]

You can solve this one by adding their rates, but you have to invert the numbers they give you to find the rate. Rate is measured in something per unit of time, and "per" indicates division. So the rates are: 1/3 of an hour (Sally) and 1/6 of an hour (Steve). So add the rates: 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2. (1/3 is 2/6, and 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6). Since their combined rate is 1/2 of a room in one hour, it takes them two hours to paint the room.

This answer makes sense: It takes Sally three hours by herself; with Steve's help, she's faster, but not THAT much faster, because he's pretty slow. You can often spot-check word problem answers like this by giving it a common sense once-over. If we came up with four hours, that would clearly be wrong: it should take her LONGER if she's getting help.

1. Let a and b be coefficients such that

$\dfrac1{x(2x+3)} = \dfrac ax + \dfrac b{2x+3}$

Combining the fractions on the right gives

$\dfrac1{x(2x+3)} = \dfrac{a(2x+3) + bx}{x(2x+3)}$

$\implies 1 = (2a+b)x + 3a$

$\implies \begin{cases}3a=1 \\ 2a+b=0\end{cases} \implies a=\dfrac13, b = -\dfrac23$

so that

$\dfrac1{x(2x+3)} = \boxed{\dfrac13 \left(\dfrac1x - \dfrac2{2x+3}\right)}$

2. a. The given ODE is separable as

$x(2x+3) \dfrac{dy}dx} = y \implies \dfrac{dy}y = \dfrac{dx}{x(2x+3)}$

Using the result of part (1), integrating both sides gives

$\ln|y| = \dfrac13 \left(\ln|x| - \ln|2x+3|\right) + C$

Given that y = 1 when x = 1, we find

$\ln|1| = \dfrac13 \left(\ln|1| - \ln|5|\right) + C \implies C = \dfrac13\ln(5)$

so the particular solution to the ODE is

$\ln|y| = \dfrac13 \left(\ln|x| - \ln|2x+3|\right) + \dfrac13\ln(5)$

We can solve this explicitly for y :

$\ln|y| = \dfrac13 \left(\ln|x| - \ln|2x+3| + \ln(5)\right)$

$\ln|y| = \dfrac13 \ln\left|\dfrac{5x}{2x+3}\right|$

$\ln|y| = \ln\left|\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{5x}{2x+3}}\right|$

$\boxed{y = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{5x}{2x+3}}}$

2. b. When x = 9, we get

$y = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{45}{21}} = \sqrt[3]{\dfrac{15}7} \approx \boxed{1.29}$

Can u help me wit the answer?? Plz???

Vanyuwa [196]

Average weight is when you add up all the weight and divide by the number of objects

if you count the number of x's you will see that you have 10 sandwiches
now add up all the weight

1/8 +1/8+ 1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4+ 3/8+ ....

once you have total weight, divide that number by 10
