Answer:14 children are expected to be at the museum

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of adult and children in the museum.

Ratio of adults to children at a museum is usually 5:2. The total ratio would be the sum of the proportions of adults and children. It becomes

5 + 2 = 7

There are currently 35 adults at the museum. It means that

5/7 × x = 35

5x/7 = 35

5x = 7 × 35 = 245

x = 245/5 = 49

The total number of adults and children in the museum is 49

The number of children in the museum would be

49 - 35 = 14

Calc Q: let f be the fxn that is defined for all real numbers x and that has the follwing properties... f''(x) =24x-18, f'(-1) =
mart [117]
Because we will have to do it eventually, let's find f(x) first.

f''(x) = 24x - 18

First, we integrate f''(x) using an indefinite integral.

f'(x) = ∫ (24x - 18) dx

f'(x) = 12X^2 - 18x + C

Now, we need to find C by substituting "x" for -1 and setting the equation equal to -6 because f'(-1) = -6

f'(-1) = 12(-1)^2 - 18(-1) + C = -6

Solve for C

C=-26

Now we put that into f'(x).

f'(x) = 12x^2 - 18x -26

Now, we integrate again.

f(x) = ∫(12x^2 - 18x - 26)dx

f(x) = 4x^3 - 9x^2 - 26x + C

Now, we substitute "x" for 2 and set it equal to 0.

f(2) = 4(2)^3 - 9(2)^2 - 26(2) + C = 0

Solve for C

C=38

Now that we have f(x), B has been solved.

Next, we need to find out where the slope of f(x) is equal to 0.  Remember that to find slope, we need to find the derivative.  We already found the derivative of f(x), so we can use that.  The question asks for the places where the slope of f(x) is 0, so we need to set f'(x) equal to 0 and solve for "x"

12x^2 - 18x -26 = 0

I could try to factor this, but I know that it is not possible.  We must use the quadratic formula.  I cannot reasonable put the quadratic formula into this, so I will only do the part under the radical.

√[18^2-4(12)(-26)]

√(324+1248)

√1572

√(4)*√(393)

2√393

When this is done with the rest of the formula, you get.

[18+/-2√(393)]/24

Thus, the points where the slope of f(x) is equal to zero are where <span>[18+/-2√(393)]/24 are the x values of f(x).

(  </span>[18+/-2√(393)]/24 , f ( <span>[18+/-2√(393)]/24 )  )

Now, we have done A and B.

To do C, we must remember the formula for finding the average value of f(x)

This formula is:

[The </span>definite integral of f(x)] / (b-a)

The picture is of this formula.

When we solve for this, we get -13.

I hope I got everything right.

Help finding the length of arc RS using 3.14 for pi
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

8.48in

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of arc RS is given by:

l=\frac{\theta}{360}\times 2\pi r

From the diagram the radius is r=6.48 in and the central angle of sector RS is \theta=150\degree

We use \pi=3.14 and substitute the radius and central angle to obtain:

l=\frac{150}{360}\times 2\times3.14\times  6.48in

We simplify to get:

l=\frac{5}{12}\times 2\times 6.48in

l=\frac{5}{6}\times 3.14\times  6.48in^2

l=8.48in

amid [387]

Answer:

width of the border is 3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

size = 8 inches by 10 inches

area = 144 square inches

to find out

width of the border

solution

first we consider width of border is x

area of new full rectangle =  (8 + 2x ) × ( 10 + 2x )

so we know  area of photo = 8 × 10 = 80 square inches

and area of border = 144 square inches that is given

so new area of photo with the border is 80 + 144 = 224 square inches

and we can say that

area of full rectangle  - area of the photograph = Area of Border

(8 + 2x) × (10 + 2x) – (80) = 144  square inches

80 + 16x + 20x + 4x^{2} – 80 = 144

4x^{2} + 36x – 144 = 0

solve thios equation we get  

2x^{2} + 9x – 36 = 0

solve thios equation we get  

(x + 12) (x – 3) = 0  

so here x have two value one is negative and other is positive

so we consider only positive value

x = -12 or x = 3

width of the border is 3 inches
