Answer:

h = -t+20

After 8 hours the candle will be 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 points (time, inches)

 (3,17)  and (5,15)

We can find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (15-17)/(5-3)

   = -2/2

   = -1

We can use point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

Replace y with h and x with t

h-17 = -1 (t-3)

Distribute

h-17 = -t+3

Add 17 to each side

h-17+17 = -t+3+17

h = -t+20

After 8 hours

h = -t+20

h = -8+20

h= 12

Can someone help me!<br> if something cost $4.90 due to a 14% discount what is the original price
Vlad [161]

Answer:

$4.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount = Original Price x Discount %/100

Discount = 4.9 × 14/100

Discount = 4.9 x 0.14

You save = $0.69

Final Price = Original Price - Discount

Final Price = 4.9 - 0.686

Final Price = $4.21

Vaughn Manufacturing has three product lines. Its only unprofitable line is Corn Nuts, the results of which appear below for 201
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer: The relevant costs are $18000 in the decision to eliminate this product line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sales = $1530000

Variable expenses = $1040000

Fixed expenses = $600000

Net loss = $110000

If product line is eliminated, 30% of the fixed expenses can be eliminated.

So, it becomes,

30% of $600000 is given by

0.3\times 600000\\\\=\$18000

Hence, the relevant costs are $18000 in the decision to eliminate this product line.

Use the alternative form of the dot product to find u · v.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

u = 45

v = 30

Angle between them, θ = 5π / 6 = 150°

(a) The formula for the dot product is given by

\overrightarrow{u}.\overrightarrow{v}= u v Cos\theta

\overrightarrow{u}.\overrightarrow{v}= 45 \times 30 \times Cos150

\overrightarrow{u}.\overrightarrow{v}= -1169.13

(b) \overrightarrow{u}=Cos\frac{\pi }{3}\widehat{i}+Sin\frac{\pi }{3}\widehat{j}

\overrightarrow{u}=0.5\widehat{i}+0.866\widehat{j}

\overrightarrow{v}=Cos\frac{2\pi }{3}\widehat{i}+Sin\frac{2\pi }{3}\widehat{j}

\overrightarrow{v}=-0.707\widehat{i}+0.707\widehat{j}

Let the angle between them is θ

The formula in terms of the dot product is given by

Cos\theta =\frac{\overrightarrow{u}.\overrightarrow{v}}{u v}

u=\sqrt{0.5^{2}+0.866^{2}}=1

v=\sqrt{-0.707^{2}+0.707^{2}}=1

Cos\theta =\frac{0.5 \times (-0.707) + 0.866 \times 0.707)}{1\times 1}

Cos\theta=0.2587

θ = 75°

(c) \overrightarrow{u}=1\widehat{i}+4\widehat{j}+8\widehat{k}

u=\sqrt{1^{2}+4^{2}+8^{2}}=9

Cos\alpha =\frac{1}{9}

Cos\beta =\frac{4}{9}

Cos\gamma  =\frac{8}{9}
