The <u>equation </u>9(u-2) + 1.5u = 8.25 <u>models</u> the total miles Michael traveled one afternoon while sledding. u equals to <u>number of hours</u> walking up a hill and (u – 2) equals to number of hours sledding down the hill.

Solve this equation:

9(u-2) + 1.5u = 8.25,\\ \\9u-18+1.5u=8.25,\\ \\9u+1.5u=8.25+18,\\ \\10.5u=26.25,\\ \\u=2.5\ hours

Determine the length of AC.<br><br> 32 units<br> 35.2 units<br> 38.5 units<br> 10.3 units
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

b^2= 29^2+20^2-2×20×29× Cos 102

b^2=841+400-1160 (-0.2079)

=1241- 241.164

b^2=1482.164

b= square root of 1482.164

AC = 38.5

Find the percent of the number.<br> 30% of 30 is<br> Explain your method.
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The answer would be 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Our output value is 30.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$30=100\%$.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=30\%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

Therefore, 30% of 30 is 9

a conical tank with vertex down is 10 feet across the top and 12 feet deep. If water is flowing out of the tank at a rate of 12
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The water level is dropping at a rate of 0.24 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we simply want to calculate the change in depth (height of the cone) , given the volume change

Mathematically, we have the volume of a cone as;

V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h

we are given dv/dt as 12 ft^3/m

dv/dh = 1/3 * π * r^2

Substituting the value for the radius, we have

dv/dh = 1/3 * 22/7 * 4^2 = 50.29

dh/dt = dh/dv * dv/dt

dh/dv = 1/(dv/dh) = 1/50.29

Thus,

dh/dt = 1/50.29 * 12

dh/dt = 0.24 ft/s

If m(x)=x+5/x-1 and n(x)=x-3 which function has the same domain as (m•n)(x)
worty [1.4K]
Consider the functions m and n:


i) m(x)=\frac{x+5}{x-1}   for x≠1.

the domain of m is  all the real numbers except 1.


ii) n(x)=x-3 is a polynomial function, because x-3 is a linear polynomial. 

The domain of any polynomial function is all real numbers. To determine the Range of this function, let c be a value in the range:

x-3=c, then x=3+c.

so if we want the function to produce c, we just set x=3+c, check:

n(3+c)=(3+c)-3=c.

This means that the Range of n is all real numbers.


What this means, is that the input (x) of the function n(x) can be any real number, and the output (n(x)) can also be any number.

so let n(x)=a, consider m(a):

m(a)=(a+5)/(a-1), clearly a≠1, this means n(x)=x-3≠1, that is x≠-4
 

This means that the domain of the composed function, m(n(x)) =  say f(x), 

is all Real numbers except 4.


Check: letting x be 4, would mean n(4)=4-3=1

which would mean m(n(4))=m(1)=(1+5)/(1-1)=6/0, which makes no sense.


Answer: Any function with domain R-{4}, has the same domain of (mon)(x)
