Ashley is picking apples. She fills two baskets with apples and puts 5 apples in her pockets. The larger basket holds 35 more ap

ples than the smaller one holds. If Ashely picks a total of 122 apples, how many apples does the larger basket hold ?

Answer:

76

Step-by-step explanation:

amount of apples in the small basket = x

5 + (35+x) +x = 122

40+ 2x = 122

2x = 122-42

2x = 82

x =82÷2

x =41

amount in larger basket = 41 + 35

= 76

A bridge in the shape of an arch connects two cities separated by a river. The two ends of the bridge are located at (–7, –13) a

sdas [7]

Answer:

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of an arch corresponds to a parabola.

the general equation for a parabola is:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

we're given three coordinates: (-7,-13),(7,-13) and (0,0)

so we can plug these values in the general equation to make 3 separate equations:

(x,y) = (-7,-13)

$-13=a(-7)^2+b(-7)+c$

$49a-7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (7,-13)

$-13=a(7)^2+b(7)+c$

$49a+7b+c=-13$

(x,y) = (0,0)

$0=a(0)^2+b(7)+c$

$c=0$

so we have three equations. and we can solve them simultaneously to find the values of a,b, and c.

we've already found c = 0, let's use substitute it to other equations.

$49a-7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a-7b=-13$

$49a+7b+c=-13\quad\Rightarrow\quad49a+7b=-13$

we can solve these two equation using the elimination method, by simply adding the two equations

$\quad\quad49a-7b=-13\\+\quad49a+7b=-13$

------------------------------

$\quad\quad 98a=-26$

$\quad\quad a=-\dfrac{13}{49}$

Now we can plug this value of a in any of the two equations.

$49a-7b=-13$

$49\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)-7b=-13$

$-13-7b=-13$

$-7b=0$

$b=0$

We have the values of a,b, and c. We can plug them in the general equation to find the equation of the arch.

$y=\left(-\dfrac{13}{49}\right)x^2+0x+0$

$y=-\dfrac{13}{49}x^2$

$49y=-13x^2$

This our equation of the arch!

How to convert base two to base three

sladkih [1.3K]

Consider this example: say we want to convert <em>x</em> = 11 0101 1001₂ to base 3.

The binary expansion of <em>x</em> is

<em>x</em> = 1×2⁹ + 1×2⁸ + 1×2⁶ + 1×2⁴ + 1×2³ + 1×2⁰

which in base 10 reduces to

<em>x</em> = 512 + 256 + 64 + 16 + 8 + 1 = 857

Recall the first several powers of 3:

3⁰ = 1; 3¹ = 3; 3² = 9; 3³ = 27; 3⁴ = 81; 3⁵ = 243; 3⁶ = 729

Now it's a matter of computing quotients and remainders. Pick the largest power of 3 that fits into the target number, then check the remainder and repeat.

• How many times does the 729 go into 857? 1 time, and it leaves a remainder of 128, or

857 = 1×729 + 128 = 1×3⁶ + 128

• How many times does 81 go into 128? Also 1 time, so

128 = 1×81 + 47 = 1×3⁴ + 47

• How many times does 27 go into 47? Also 1 time,

47 = 1×27 + 20 = 1×3³ + 20

• How many times does 9 go into 20? 2 times,

20 = 18 + 2 = 2×9 + 2 = 2×3² + 2

• How many times does 1 go into 2? Also 2 times,

2 = 2 + 1 = 2×1 + 0 = 2×3⁰

So we found

857 = 1×3⁶ + 1×3⁴ + 1×3³ + 2×3² + 2×3⁰

which is the ternary expansion of <em>x</em>,

<em>x</em> = 1 011 202₃
