Answer:

The length of straw is 21 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Lengths of straw = 4x^2-3 , 4x^2-2, 4x^2-1 inches.

Perimeter of the triangle is 12x^2-6  inches.

Perimeter of triangle is sum of three sides .

Thus, when we open the triangle we obtain the length of straw thus perimeter is the length of the straw.

Given x = 1.5 inches

Put in perimeter, we get,

Length of straw = Perimeter of triangle= 12x^2-6 at x = 1.5 inches

\Rightarrow 12(1.5)^2-6=12\times2.25-6=27-6=21

Thus, the length of straw is 21 inches.

Ya'll fr get 50 points if you answer this. <br> What is the rate of change of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=f%28x%29%3D2%5Ex
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2^x\ln 2

Step-by-step explanation:

**This is a non-linear function and therefore <u>does not have a constant rate of change</u>.  It will have a different slope depending on what points you use in the average rate of change formula:\mathsf{average \ rate \ of \ change = \dfrac{change \ in \ y}{change \ in \ x}}

To calculate rate of change, differentiate.

substitute y for f(x):  

\implies y=2^x

Take natural logs of both sides:

\implies \ln y=\ln 2^x

Apply the log rule  \ln a^b=b \ln a :

\implies \ln y=x\ln 2

Differentiate with respect to x:

\implies \dfrac{1}{y} \frac{dy}{dx}=\ln 2

Mulitply both sides by y:

\implies \dfrac{dy}{dx}=y\ln 2

Replace y with y=2^x

\implies \dfrac{dy}{dx}=2^x\ln 2

Therefore, rate of change of the function is :

\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2^x\ln 2

Ruth has 6 chores to do. If each chore does not depend on the others, in how many different orders could she do the chores?
Mice21 [21]
First chore, 6 to choose from.
Second chore, 5 to choose from.
Third chore, 4 to choose from.
Fourth chore, 3 to choose from.
Fifth chore, 2 to choose from.
Sixth chore, 1 to "choose" from.
The total number of orders possible is the product
6*5*4*3*2*1=6!=720

A survey was conducted to determine the popularity of three foods among students. The data collected from 75 students are summar
Andrews [41]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no = 75

N (P) = 48 , N (H) = 45 , N (T) = 58

N (P∩H) = 28 , N (H∩T) = 37 , N (P∩T) = 40

N (P∩H∩T) = 25

Total no = N (P) + N (H) + N (T) - N (P∩H)  -  N (H∩T) - N (P∩T) + N (P∩H∩T) + neither

75 = 48 + 45 + 58 - 28 - 37 - 40 + 25 + neither

75 = 71 + neither → neither = 4

N (only P) = N (P) - N (P∩H)  - N (P∩T)  + N (P∩H∩T) = 48 - 28 - 40 + 25 = 5

N (only H) = N (H) - N (P∩H) - N (H∩T) +  N (P∩H∩T) = 45 - 28 - 37 + 25 = 5

N (only T) = N (T) - N (H∩T) - N (P∩T) + N (P∩H∩T) = 58 - 37 - 40 + 25 = 6

So, total liking either one or neither = 4 + 5 + 5 + 6 = 20
