The doctor has told Cal O'Ree that during his ten weeks of working out at the gym, he can expect each week's weight loss to be $

Sergio [31]

Answer:

220.67 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be treated as a compounded interest with a weekly rate of -1%. Cal's weight after 'n' weeks at a 1% loss rate per week is described by the following expression:

$W = 244*(1-0.01)^n$

For n = 10 weeks, Cal's weight is:

$W = 244*(1-0.01)^{10}\\W=220.67\ pounds$

He expects to weigh 220.67 pounds at the end of the ten weeks.

Find a formula for the described function. an open rectangular box with volume 9 m3 has a square base. express the surface area

Maru [420]

Let

x--------> the length side of the square base

h--------> the height of the box

we know that

<u>the volume of the box is equal to</u>

$V=x^{2} *h\\ V=9\ m^{3}$

so

$x^{2} *h=9\\\\h=\frac{9}{x^{2} }$

<u>the surface area of the box is equal to</u>

$SA=area\ of\ the\ base+perimeter\ of\ base*height$ (remember that the box is open)

area of the base= $(x^{2})\ m^{2}$

Perimeter of the base= $(4*x)\ m$

height=(h) m

$h=\frac{9}{x^{2}}$

substitute

$SA=x^{2} +4*x*h\\ \\ \\ SA=x^{2} +4*x*\frac{9}{x^{2} } \\ \\ SA=x^{2} +\frac{36}{x}$

we know that

the value of x can not be negative and the denominator can not be zero

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the domain of SA is x> 0

the domain is the interval-------------> (0,∞)

What is the x-intercepts of the graph of y = 12x-5x-2

hammer [34]

Y = 12x - 5x - 2

first simplify the equation by subtracting like terms (in this case):

12x - 5x = 7x

y = 7x - 2

Since you are finding the x, you must isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.(Note: because there is a equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other)

y = 7x - 2

y (+2) = 7x - 2 (+2)
y + 2 = 7x
(y + 2)/7 = 7x/7

x = (y + 2)/7

x = (y + 2)/7 is your answer

hope this helps
