Answer:

The number of measles vaccines that Dr. Potter give than polio vaccines is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

The number of doses given in a polio vaccine = 6 doses

The number of doses given in a measles vaccine = 3 doses

The number of vaccinations given by Dr. Potter last year = 60 vaccinations

The number of doses given in the 60 vaccinations = 225 doses

Let the number of polio vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = x

Let the number of measles vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = y

Therefore, we have;

6 × x + 3 × y = 225.......................(1)

x + y = 60.......................................(2)

From equation (2), we have;

x = 60 - y

Substituting the derived value for x in equation (1), we get;

6 × x + 3 × y = 225

6 × (60 - y) + 3 × y = 225

360 - 6·y + 3·y = 225

360 - 225 = 6·y - 3·y

135 = 3·y

y = 45

x = 60 - y = 60 - 45 = 15

Therefore;

The number of polio vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = 15

The number of measles vaccine given last year by Dr. Potter = 45

The number of measles vaccines that Dr. Potter give than polio vaccines = 45 - 15 = 30 vaccines.

The number of measles vaccines that Dr. Potter give than polio vaccines =  30 vaccines.

If Tom has 3 different sweaters, and 5 different pairs of pants, how many different combinations could he wear?
Vladimir [108]
Check the tree diagram in the picture.

Tom could pick Pants 1 (P1), then Sweater 1, 2 or 3. So 3 combinations

Similarly if we picked P2, P3, P4 or P5 we would have 3 combinations per each.

In total we have 5*3=15 different combinations.

Evaluate the surface integral. s y ds, s is the helicoid with vector equation r(u, v) = u cos(v), u sin(v), v , 0 ≤ u ≤ 6, 0 ≤ v
Juliette [100K]

Compute the surface element:

\mathrm dS=\|\vec r_u\times\vec r_v\|\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv

\vec r(u,v)=(u\cos v,u\sin v,v)\implies\begin{cases}\vec r_u=(\cos v,\sin v,0)\\\vec r_v=(-u\sin v,u\cos v,1)\end{cases}

\|\vec r_u\times\vec r_v\|=\sqrt{\sin^2v+(-\cos v)^2+u^2}=\sqrt{1+u^2}

So the integral is

\displaystyle\iint_Sy\,\mathrm dS=\int_0^\pi\int_0^6u\sin v\sqrt{1+u^2}\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv

=\displaystyle\left(\int_0^\pi\sin v\,\mathrm dv\right)\left(\int_0^6u\sqrt{1+u^2}\,\mathrm du\right)

=\dfrac23(37^{3/2}-1)

Mr. Leonard took a job through an employment agency. The job pays $88K per year. He must pay a fee to the employment agency. The
tatuchka [14]
This question shows you how to determine the amount of money Mr. Leonard makes in 4 weeks.  It takes his total salary, divides it by 52 (there are 52 weeks in a year), then multiplies it by 4 (you need 4 weeks worth of pay). 

This amount is shown as $6769.24.

He must pay the agency 22% of this, so change 22% to 0.22 and multiply it by the amount he makes in 4 weeks.

0.22 x 6769.24 = $1489.23

Mr. Leonard must pay the agency $1489.23 after the first 4 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

The growth factor is always 1 more than the growth rate.

  1 + 12% = 1 + 12/100 = 1.12

The multiplier is 1.12.
