Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6 x (1 + 2/3) = 5/6 x 5/3

= 5/6 x 10/6

= 15/6

which is not the same as 7/3

7/3 is 14/6

What is the value of b in the equation (y Superscript b Baseline) Superscript 4 Baseline = StartFraction 1 Over y Superscript 24

shusha [124]

The value of b is -6.

Explanation:

The expression is $\left(y^{b}\right)^{4}=\frac{1}{y^{24}}$

To determine the value of b, we shall solve the expression.

Applying exponent rule, $\left(a^{b}\right)^{c}=a^{b c}$ , we get,

$y^{4b}=\frac{1}{y^{24}}$

Applying exponent rule, $\frac{1}{a^{b}}=a^{-b}$ , we have,

$y^{4b}=y^{-24}$

The expression is of the form, $a^{f(x)}=a^{g(x)}$ then $f(x)=g(x)$

Applying this rule, we get,

$4b=-24$

Dividing both sides by 4, we have,

$b=-6$

Hence, the value of b is -6.

Q7Which statement is incorrect for the graph of thefunction y = -5 cosGcos( 3 (x – 3)) +62The period is 4.The amplitude is 3.The

guajiro [1.7K]

The given function is,

$y=-5\cos (\frac{\pi}{2}(x-3))+6$

The graph can be drawn as,

The period will be distance between two consequetive maximas,

$\text{Period}=1-(-3)=4$

Thus, period is correct.

The amplitude can be determined as,

$\begin{gathered} Amplitude=\frac{\max -\min }{2} \\ =\frac{11-1}{2} \\ =5 \end{gathered}$

Thus, amplitue is incorrect.

The range is,

$y\in\lbrack1,11\rbrack$

Thus, the range is correct.

The midline is,

$\begin{gathered} \text{midline}=\frac{\max +\min }{2} \\ =\frac{1+11}{2} \\ =6 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the midline is correct.

Thus, option (b) is the solution.

Helia invested 4000 AED for 3 years with a compound interest rate of 1.5%, Calculate the worth of her investment at the end of t

sineoko [7]

Answer:

4180 AED

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Principal= 4000

Time= 3 years

Rate= 1.5%

The compound interest expression is given as

A= P(1+r)^t

substitute

A=4000(1+0.015)^3

A= 4000(1.015)^3

A= 4000*1.045

A= 4180

Hence the worth will be 4180 AED

One week Michael worked 40 hours and sold 2,870 worth of shoes if his employer paid him 12.50 per hour and 6% commission of all

liq [111]

Answer:

Money which Michael make in commission = 158.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

number of hours Michael worked in a week = 40 hours

total sale of the week = 2870

commission which Micheal will get on sale = 6% above 225sale

To find,

total money Michael make in commission in the week

Commission = (2870 - 225)*6%

Commission = (2870 - 225)*6/100

Commission = 2645 *6/100

Commission = 158.7

Total money Micheal make in a week = (40*12.50) + (158.7)

= 658.7
