A cubical block of metal weighs 6 pounds. How much will another cube of the same metal weigh if its sides are twice as long?

1 answer:

8 0

I believe it would be 12, I believe this because its states that it is TWICE as long therefore is made from the same metal so 6x2=12

Let X be a set of size 20 and A CX be of size 10. (a) How many sets B are there that satisfy A Ç B Ç X? (b) How many sets B are

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

(a) Number of sets B given that

A⊆B⊆C: 2¹⁰. (That is: A is a subset of B, B is a subset of C. B might be equal to C)
A⊂B⊂C: 2¹⁰ - 2. (That is: A is a proper subset of B, B is a proper subset of C. B≠C)

(b) Number of sets B given that set A and set B are disjoint, and that set B is a subset of set X: 2²⁰ - 2¹⁰.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{20}$ denote the 20 elements of set X.

Let $x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{10}$ denote elements of set X that are also part of set A.

For set A to be a subset of set B, each element in set A must also be present in set B. In other words, set B should also contain $x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{10}$ .

For set B to be a subset of set C, all elements of set B also need to be in set C. In other words, all the elements of set B should come from $x_1, x_2, \cdots, x_{20}$ .

$\begin{array}{c|cccccccc}\text{Members of X} & x_1 & x_2 & \cdots & x_{10} & x_{11} & \cdots & x_{20}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set A?} & \text{Yes}&\text{Yes}&\cdots &\text{Yes}& \text{No} & \cdots & \text{No}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set B?}& \text{Yes}&\text{Yes}&\cdots &\text{Yes}& \text{Maybe} & \cdots & \text{Maybe}\end{array}$ .

For each element that might be in set B, there are two possibilities: either the element is in set B or it is not in set B. There are ten such elements. There are thus $2^{10} = 1024$ possibilities for set B.

In case the question connected set A and B, and set B and C using the symbol ⊂ (proper subset of) instead of ⊆, A ≠ B and B ≠ C. Two possibilities will need to be eliminated: B contains all ten "maybe" elements or B contains none of the ten "maybe" elements. That leaves $2^{10} -2 = 1024 - 2 = 1022$ possibilities.

Set A and set B are disjoint if none of the elements in set A are also in set B, and none of the elements in set B are in set A.

Start by considering the case when set A and set B are indeed disjoint.

$\begin{array}{c|cccccccc}\text{Members of X} & x_1 & x_2 & \cdots & x_{10} & x_{11} & \cdots & x_{20}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set A?} & \text{Yes}&\text{Yes}&\cdots &\text{Yes}& \text{No} & \cdots & \text{No}\\[0.5em]\displaystyle\text{Member of}\atop\displaystyle\text{Set B?}& \text{No}&\text{No}&\cdots &\text{No}& \text{Maybe} & \cdots & \text{Maybe}\end{array}$ .

Set B might be an empty set. Once again, for each element that might be in set B, there are two possibilities: either the element is in set B or it is not in set B. There are ten such elements. There are thus $2^{10} = 1024$ possibilities for a set B that is disjoint with set A.

There are 20 elements in X so that's $2^{20} = 1048576$ possibilities for B ⊆ X if there's no restriction on B. However, since B cannot be disjoint with set A, there's only $2^{20} - 2^{10}$ possibilities left.

Let g(x) = 2x and h(x) = x2 + 4. Evaluate (h ∘ g)(1). 2 8 10 4

Klio2033 [76]

Hello!

You can solve this by plugging 1 into $g(x)$ and plugging the result into $h(x)$ .

$g(x) = 2x$
$g(1) = 2(1)$
$g(1) = 2$

$h(x) = 2x + 4$
$h(g(1)) = 2(2) + 4$
$h(g(1)) = 4 + 4$
$h(g(1)) = 8$

Answer:
<span>(h ∘ g)(1) = 8</span>
