Jayden has been reading a 275275275-page book for English class. On average, he has read about 101010 pages in 151515 minutes (\

text{min})(min)left parenthesis, m, i, n, right parenthesis. With a deadline looming, Jayden realizes that he won't finish in time unless he skims through the rest of the book. If he skims the book, he can cover 151515 pages in 10\,\text{min}10min10, space, m, i, n. If it takes Jayden 555 hours and 50\,\text{min}50min50, space, m, i, n to finish the book (reading and skimming combined), how many pages did Jayden have to skim through?

First let's define variables:
 r: reading
 s: skimming
 We write the system of equations that adapts to the problem:
 r + s = 275
 (15/10) r + (10/15) s = 355
 We solve the system of equations:
 r = 206
 s = 69
 Note: see attached image for system solution.
 Answer: 
 Jayden had to skim 69 pages through

The recommended daily intake rdi a nutrients supplement for a certain age group is 800 mg per day actully supplements needs vary
QveST [7]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The recommended daily intake of a nutrients supplement for a certain age group is 800 mg per day.

Actully supplements needs vary from person to person  plus or minus 50 mg.

This means the minimum value is 800 - 50 = 750 mg per day and the maximum value is 800 + 50 = 850 mg per day.

Let x mg be a possible daily amount of nutrients supplement. Then

750\le x\le 850

Subtract 800:

750-800\le x-800\le 850-800\\ \\-50\le x-800\le 50

This inequality can be rewritten using absolute value notation as

|x-800|\le 50

aron lei is making identical balloon arrangements for a party. He has 32 maroon balloons and 24 white balloons, he wants each ar
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

The greatest number of arrangements that he can make if every balloon is used is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest number of arrangements will be the greatest common factor between 24 and 32.

GCF of 24 and 32:

We keep factoring both numbers by prime factors, while they can both be divided by the same number. So

24 - 32|2

12 - 16|2

6 - 8|2

3 - 4

There is no factor for which we can divide both 3 and 4. So the GCF is 2*2*2 = 8.

This means that the greatest number of arrangements that he can make if every balloon is used is 8.

How do the average rates of change for the functions f(x) = 2x2 and g(x) = 3x2 over the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ 4 compare?
DedPeter [7]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

The average rate of change for function f(x) over the interval a ≤ x ≤ b is given by :-

\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

So, the rate of change for function f(x)=2x^2  over the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ 4 :

=\dfrac{2(4)^2-2(-3)^2}{4-(-3)}=\dfrac{14}{7}=2

The rate of change for function g(x)=3x^2  over the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ 4 :

=\dfrac{3(4)^2-3(-3)^2}{4-(-3)}=\dfrac{21}{7}=3

So, the rate of change for  g(x) is greater than f(x) over the interval −3 ≤ x ≤ 4.

How do you calculate prisms
Softa [21]
For the volume you would use 1/2 b.h.h For a triangular prism. For an octagonal, you would use 1/2.a.p.h

b=Base
h=Height
(the other H) Hypotenuse
a=Apothom
p=Perimemter
