Sally is shopping for diapers and sees a box with 216 diapers for \$39.98 and a box with 88 diapers for \$24.99 . Which option h

as the better deal the diapers?

The first step is to find out the value of one diaper for each equation

39.98/216 = 0.18
Therefore one diaper is for 0.18 cents

24.99/88 = 0.28
Therefore one diaper is for 0.28 cents

At the end the first deal is better

Answer:

For me I think 216 diapers for 39.98 is the best option

Step-by-step explanation:

Get the price of one diaper in each offer

216 = $39.98

1= ?

1×39.98÷216=0.19

Option 2

88=24.99

1 =?

1×24.99÷88=0.28

So I prefer buying 1 diaper for$0.19 and get 216 of them for $39.98 rather than buying 1 diaper for $0.28 and get 88 of them for $24.99

Given that OA = 2x + 9y, OB = 4x + 8y and CD = 4x - 2y, explain the geometrical relationships between the straight lines AB and

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

The geometrical relationships between the straight lines AB and CD is that they have the same slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$OA = 2x + 9y$

$OB = 4x + 8y$

$CD = 4x - 2y$

Required

The relationship between AB, CD

Since AB is a straight line and O is the origin, then:

$AB = (c - a)x + (d - b)y$

Where:

$OA = ax + by$ ====> $OA = 2x + 9y$

$OB = cx + dy$ ====> $OB = 4x + 8y$

This implies that:

$a =2$ $b = 9$ $c = 4$ $d = 8$

So:

$AB = (c - a)x + (d - b)y$

$AB = (4 - 2)x + (8 - 9)y$

$AB = 2x -y$

So, we have:

$AB = 2x -y$

$CD = 4x - 2y$

Calculate the slope (m) of $AB\ and\ CD$

$m = \frac{Coefficient\ of\ y}{Coefficient\ of\ y}$

For AB

$m_1 = \frac{-1}{2}$

$m_1 = -\frac{1}{2}$

For CD

$m_2 = \frac{-2}{4}$

$m_2 = \frac{-1}{2}$

$m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

By comparison:

$m_1 = m_2 = -\frac{1}{2}$

This implies that both lines have the same slope

The diameter of the circle is 10 units what is the radius of the circle

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Radius is 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of a circle will always be 1/2 of the diameter.

This gives the formula:

$r=\frac{d}{2}$

(substitute known values)

$r=\frac{10}{2}$

(divide 10 by 2)

$r=5$

Therefore the radius is five

Finding an Equation of a tangent Line in Exercise, find an equation of the tangent line to the graph of the function at the give

frutty [35]

Answer:

$y=\dfrac{3x}{e}+\dfrac{4}{e}$

this is the equation of the tangent at point (-1,1/e)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the tangent line we need to find the derivative of the function g(x).

$g(x) =e^{x^3}$

we know that $\frac{d}{dx}(e^{f(x)})=e^{f(x)}f'(x)$

$g'(x) =e^{x^{3}}(3 x^{2})$

$g'(x) =3 x^{2} e^{x^{3}}$

this the equation of the slope of the curve at any point x and it also the slope of the tangent at any point x. hence, g'(x) can be denoted as 'm'

to find the slope at (-1,1/e) we'll use the x-coordinate of the point i.e. x = -1

$m =3 (-1)^{2} e^{(-1)^{3}}\\m =3e^{-1}\\m=\dfrac{3}{e}$

using the equation of line:

$(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)$

we'll find the equation of the tangent line.

here (x1,y1) =(-1,1/e), and m = 3/e

$(y-\dfrac{1}{e})=\dfrac{3}{e}(x+1)\\y=\dfrac{3x}{e}+\dfrac{3}{e}+\dfrac{1}{e}\\$

$y=\dfrac{3x}{e}+\dfrac{4}{e}$

this is the equation of the tangent at point (-1,1/e)
