Brock wants to compete for the featherweight boxing title, but the upper limit for that weight class is 126 pounds. He currently

weighs 134 pounds. Brock can lose 3 pounds per day if he does vigorous workouts. The number of days, d, that Brock will need to work out to compete at the featherweight level is represented by the inequality 134 – 3d < 126. Select the fewest number of days he would have to work out to compete at the featherweight level. A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4 E. 5

Answer:

C. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Brock weighs 134 pounds, he will lose 3 pounds a day until he is 126 pounds

D will represent the number of days he will work out.

134 - 3d < 126

134 - 3(3) < 126

134 - 9 = 125

125 < 126

3 days

X/3 - 11 = -2 <br> the answer i got was 27, but it’s suppose to be 21. how do i get there?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer: x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

x/3 - 11 = -2

Add 11 to each side

x/3 = 9

Multiply each side by 3

x = 27

x cannot equal 21.

21/3 - 11

21/3 = 7

7 - 11 = -4

-4 does not equal -2

Therefore, x cannot equal 21.

The point P( 0.5 , 10 ) lies on the curve y = 5 / x . Let Q be the point (x, 5 / x ) . a.) Find the slope of the secant line PQ
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Based on the results  it is expected that the slope of the tangent line at the point (0.5,10) is -20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To see that compute, the slopes for the given points as follows:

1. For x=0.6 we have:

m=\dfrac{(5/0.6)-10}{0.6-0.5}=-16.66

2. For x=0.51 we have:

m=\dfrac{(5/0.51)-10}{0.51-0.5}=-19.60

3. For x=0.4 we have:

m=\dfrac{(5/0.4)-10}{0.4-0.5}=-25.00

4. For x=0.49 we have:

m=\dfrac{(5/0.49)-10}{0.49-0.5}=-20.40

So, we observe that the slope of the tangent line at (0.5, 10) is close to the value -20.

The graph shown below is useful to see the secant lines that approximates the tangent line.
