Answer:

Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.

Let the number of silk fibres = a.

It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.

So, we get the equation,

ax=300, where 3\leq a\leq 10

i.e. x=\frac{300}{a}, 3\leq a\leq 10

So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.

Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Answer:

x=4y-12

x+12=4y

x/4+12/4=y

y=x/4+3

therefore f^-1(x)=1/4x+3

Let l(x) be the statement "x has an Internet connection" and C(x, y) be the statement "x and y have chatted over the Internet,"
Bas_tet [7]

The question is:

Let l(x) be the statement "x has an Internet connection" and C(x, y) be the statement "x and y have chatted over the Internet," where the domain for the variables x and y consists of all students in your class. Use quantifiers to express each of these statements.

a. Jerry does not have an Internet connection.

b. Rachel has not chatted over the Internet with Chelsea.

c. Jan and Sharon have never chatted over the Internet.

d. No one in the class has chatted with Bob.

e. Sanjay has chatted with everyone except Joseph.

f. Someone in your class does not have an Internet connection.

g. Not everyone in your class has an Internet connection.

h. Exactly one student in your class has an internet connection.

i. Everyone except one student in your class has an Internet connection.

j. Everyone in your class with an Internet connection has chatted over the Internet with at least one other student in your class.

k. Someone in your class has an Internet connection but has not chatted with anyone else in your class.

l. There are two students in your class who have not chatted with each other over the Internet.

m. There is a student in your class who has chatted with everyone in your class over the Internet.

n. There are at least two students in your class who have not chatted with the same person in your class.

o. There are two students in the class who between them have chatted with everyone else in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that: Because the arguments are variables, we write

Ix = I(x)

Cxy = C(x,y)

a. Jerry does not have an Internet connection.

~I(Jerry).

b. Rachel has not chatted over the internet with Chelsea.

~C(Rachel,Chelsea).

c. Jan and Sharon have never chatted over the internet.

~C(Jan,Sharon).

d. No one in the class has chatted with Bob.

~∃x C(x, Bob).

e. Sanjay has chatted with everyone except Joseph.

∀y (y ≠ Joseph → C(Sanjay, y)).

f. Someone in your class does not have an internet connection.

∃x ~Ix.

g. Not everyone in your class has an internet connection.

~∀x Ix.

h. Exactly one student in your class has an internet connection.

∃x (Ix ∧ ∀y (Iy → y = x)).

i. Everyone except one student in your class has an internet connection. This means exactly one student does not have a connection.

∃x (~Ix∧ ∀y (Iy → y = x)).

j. Everyone in your class with an internet connection has chatted over the internet with at least one other student in your class.

∀x (Ix → ∃y (Cxy ∧ x ≠ y)).

Assuming nobody can chat with him or herself, then

∀x (Ix → ∃y (Cxy))

k. Someone in your class has an internet connection but has not chatted with anyone else in your class.

∃x (Ix ∧ ∀y ~Cxy).

l. There are two students in your class who have not chatted with each other over the internet.

∃x ∃y (x ≠ y∧~Cxy).

m. There is a student in your class who has chatted with everyone in your class over the internet.

∃x ∀y Cxy.

n. There are at least two students in your class who have not chatted with the same person in your class. ∃x ∃y (x ≠ y ∧ ∃z (~Cxz ∧ ~Cyz)).

o. There are two students in the class who between them have chatted with everyone else in the class.

∃x ∃y (x ≠ y ∧ ∀z (Cxz ∨ Cyz)).

∠A and \angle B∠B are supplementary angles. If m\angle A=(7x+10)^{\circ}∠A=(7x+10) ∘ and m\angle B=(7x-26)^{\circ}∠B=(7x−26) ∘ ,
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

108 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since angles A and B are supplementary, they both add up to 180. Angle A = 7x+10, and angle B = 7x-26. You can set up the equation A + B = 180, and then plug in angles A and B, which gives you 7x+10 + 7x-26 = 180. Then you just need to isolate x:

Combine like terms: 14x - 16 = 180

Add 16 to both sides: 14x = 196

Divide both sides by 14: x = 14

Now that you know x, you can plug it into the expression for angle A (7x+10):

A = 7(14) + 10 = 98+10 = 108
