AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A) i)

For Anna initially, she has $0 from making 0 envelopes. After making 400 envelopes she has $20. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (400, 20). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{20-0}{400-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{20} x$

The table is:

x: 200 400 600 800 1000

y: 10 20 30 40 50

ii)

For Jason initially, he has $0 from making 0 envelopes. For every 250 envelopes he has $10. Let x represent the number of envelopes and y the earnings. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 0) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{10-0}{250-0}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{25} x$

The table is:

x: 200 400 600 800 1000

y: 8 16 24 32 40

The graph is plotted using geogebra online graphing

b) From the table above we can see that Anna makes more stuffing than Jason.

c) Anna has a savings of $100. Hence this can be represented by the points (0, 100) and (250, 10). Using the equation of a line:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-100=\frac{20-0}{400-100}(x-0)\\\\y=\frac{1}{15} x+100$

We can see from the graph that there is a y intercept at 100. That is the earnings starts from 100.

The equation of a line is given as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (initial value)

For the first graph, the slope is 1/20 and the initial value is 0 while for the second graph the slope is 1/15 and the initial value is 100

D) The line pass through (10, 10) and (100, 40), hence:

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)\\\\y-10=\frac{40-10}{100-10}(x-10)\\\\y-10=\frac{1}{3} (x-10)\\\\y=\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{20}{3}$

1. The mechanics at Lincoln Automotive are reborning a 6 in deep cylinder to fit a new piston. The machine they are using increa

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

$0.0239\frac{in^{3}}{min}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must start by drawing a diagram of the cylinder. (See attached picture)

This diagram will help us visualize the problem better.

So we start by determining what data we already know:

Height=6in

Diameter=3.8in

Radius = 1.9 in (because the radius is half the length of the diameter)

The problem also states that the radius will increase on thousandth of an inch every 3 minutes. We can find the velocity at which the radius is increasing with this data:

$r'=\frac{1/1000in}{3min}$

which yields:

$r'=\frac{1}{3000}\frac{in}{min}$

with this information we can start solving the problem.

First, the problem wants us to know how fast the volume is increasing, so in order to find that we need to start with the volume formula for a cylinder, which is:

$V=\pi r^{2}h$

where V is the volumen, r is the radius, h is the height and π is a mathematical constant equal approximately to 3.1416.

Now, the height of the cylinder will not change at any time during the reborning, so we can directly substitute the provided height, so we get:

$V=\pi r^{2}(6)$

or

$V=6 \pi r^{2}$

We can now take the derivative to this formula so we get:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=2(6)\pi r \frac{dr}{dt}$

Which simplifies to:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=12\pi r \frac{dr}{dt}$

We can now substitute the data provided by the problem to get:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=12\pi (1.9) (\frac{1}{3000})$

which yields:

$\frac{dV}{dt}=0.0239\frac{in^{3}}{min}$

The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race. First they reduce their time by 1.2 minutes. Then they are able

Digiron [165]

Answer:

5.2 Minutes, or 5 minutes and 12 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this problem by working backward. Since our number gets smaller by a 1/10 or 0.1, in order to work backward we must multiply 3.60 by 10/9, since one tenth has been taken away already. When we do this, we get 4.0. When we add 1.2 minutes to that, we get a final answer of 5.2 minutes, or 5 minutes and 12 seconds.

Barbara, Mark, and Carlos participated in the third heat of “The Big Race”. Barbara thought she could win with a 3 meter head st

steposvetlana [31]

Distance to travel = 20 m.
Let us determine the time, t, that each participant took to complete 20 m.

Barbara:
Average speed = (3 m)/(2 s) = 1.5 m/s
t = 20/1.5 = 13.3 s

Mark:
t = 5 s

Carlos:
y = x + 1
where
y = 20 m
x = time, t
Therefore
t =x = y - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19 s

Summary:
Barbara: 13.3 s
Mark: 5 s
Carlos: 19 s

Answer:
The winner is Mark
