Answer:

Option a and b both are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the information that is: n is added to 15 less than 3 times itself.

The result is 101.

So, the number is 15 less than 3 times to itself means: 3n-15

And n is added to it that means:

n+(3n-15)

And its result is 101 so,

n+(3n-15)=101

After simplification of above expression gives:

4n-15=101.

Therefore, Option a and b both are correct.

Given 2x - 9y - 12 = 0, express 5x - 4y + 7 = 0 in terms of x only

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

$4 \frac{1}{9}x$ + $12\frac{1}{3}$ = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on 2x - 9y - 12 = 0

-9y = 12 - 2x

9y = -12 + 2x

y = $-1\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{9} x$

Therefore...

5x - 4y + 7 = 0

5x - 4( $-1\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{9} x$ ) + 7 = 0

5x + $5\frac{1}{3}$ - $\frac{8}{9} x$ + 7 = 0

$4 \frac{1}{9}x$ + $12\frac{1}{3}$ = 0

Ryan has nine 14 ounce bags of popcorn to repackage and sell at the school fair. a small bag holds 3 ounces. how many small bags

Mice21 [21]

14 divided by 3 you would get 4 2/3 but since all the bags have to have the same amount it should be 4

Hope this helps!

3y''-6y'+6y=e*x sexcx

From the homogeneous part of the ODE, we can get two fundamental solutions. The characteristic equation is

$3r^2-6r+6=0\iff r^2-2r+2=0$

which has roots at $r=1\pm i$ . This admits the two fundamental solutions

$y_1=e^x\cos x$
$y_2=e^x\sin x$

The particular solution is easiest to obtain via variation of parameters. We're looking for a solution of the form

$y_p=u_1y_1+u_2y_2$

where

$u_1=-\displaystyle\frac13\int\frac{y_2e^x\sec x}{W(y_1,y_2)}\,\mathrm dx$
$u_2=\displaystyle\frac13\int\frac{y_1e^x\sec x}{W(y_1,y_2)}\,\mathrm dx$

and $W(y_1,y_2)$ is the Wronskian of the fundamental solutions. We have

$W(e^x\cos x,e^x\sin x)=\begin{vmatrix}e^x\cos x&e^x\sin x\\e^x(\cos x-\sin x)&e^x(\cos x+\sin x)\end{vmatrix}=e^{2x}$

and so

$u_1=-\displaystyle\frac13\int\frac{e^{2x}\sin x\sec x}{e^{2x}}\,\mathrm dx=-\int\tan x\,\mathrm dx$
$u_1=\dfrac13\ln|\cos x|$

$u_2=\displaystyle\frac13\int\frac{e^{2x}\cos x\sec x}{e^{2x}}\,\mathrm dx=\int\mathrm dx$
$u_2=\dfrac13x$

Therefore the particular solution is

$y_p=\dfrac13e^x\cos x\ln|\cos x|+\dfrac13xe^x\sin x$

so that the general solution to the ODE is

$y=C_1e^x\cos x+C_2e^x\sin x+\dfrac13e^x\cos x\ln|\cos x|+\dfrac13xe^x\sin x$
