25, because 20 divided equally in 4 parts is 5 so 5x5=25

Does x*x*x*x*x = 5x?<br> I'm not really sure so it would help.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

no ,x*x*x*x*x=x^5

x+x+x+x+x=5x

in multiplication those who have same base we add their power.

in addition those variables which have same base(or are like term) we add them.

Use graphing technology to find the range of the function f(x)=2^x<br> .

Zinaida [17]

Look at the graph, which y values can the graph hit?

Anything above zero would be the right answer, since there is an asymptote at $y=0$ .

So the range would be $y>0$

Hope this helps.

頑張って!

Explain how you know that √10 is between 3 and 4? what would your estimate of √10 be??

raketka [301]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Welllllll.....

If you take the square root of 9, it's 3

if you take the square root if 16, it's 4

I would guess it to be about 3.2

Find the partial fraction decomposition of the rational expression with prime quadratic factors in the denominator

SpyIntel [72]

$\dfrac{5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21}{(x-3)(x^2-2)^2}=\dfrac{a_1}{x-3}+\dfrac{a_2x+a_3}{x^2-2}+\dfrac{a_4x+a_5}{(x^2-2)^2}$
$\implies 5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=a_1(x^2-2)^2+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)+(a_4x+a_5)(x-3)$

When $x=3$ , you're left with

$147=49a_1\implies a_1=\dfrac{147}{49}=3$

When $x=\sqrt2$ or $x=-\sqrt2$ , you're left with

$\begin{cases}17-8\sqrt2=(\sqrt2a_4+a_5)(\sqrt2-3)&\text{for }x=\sqrt2\\17+8\sqrt2=(-\sqrt2a_4+a_5)(-\sqrt2-3)\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}-5+\sqrt2=\sqrt2a_4+a_5\\-5-\sqrt2=-\sqrt2a_4+a_5\end{cases}$

Adding the two equations together gives $-10=2a_5$ , or $a_5=-5$ . Subtracting them gives $2\sqrt2=2\sqrt2a_4$ , $a_4=1$ .

Now, you have

$5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=3(x^2-2)^2+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)+(x-5)(x-3)$
$5x^4-7x^3-12x^2+6x+21=3x^4-11x^2-8x+27+(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)$
$2x^4-7x^3-x^2+14x-6=(a_2x+a_3)(x-3)(x^2-2)$

By just examining the leading and lagging (first and last) terms that would be obtained by expanding the right side, and matching these with the terms on the left side, you would see that $a_2x^4=2x^4$ and $a_3(-3)(-2)=6a_3=-6$ . These alone tell you that you must have $a_2=2$ and $a_3=-1$ .

So the partial fraction decomposition is

$\dfrac3{x-3}+\dfrac{2x-1}{x^2-2}+\dfrac{x-5}{(x^2-2)^2}$

Ella collects 50 bottles to recycle. Of the bottles she collects, 19 are plastic and the rest are glass.

nekit [7.7K]

QUESTION A

The total number of bottles Ella collected is
$50$

The number of bottles that are plastic is

$19$

The percentage of bottles that are plastic is

$= \frac{number \: of \: plastic \: bottles}{total \: number \: of \: bottes} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{19}{50} \times 100\%$

$= 19 \times 2\%$
$= 38\%$

Therefore 38% of the bottles are plastic.

QUESTION B

The total number of bottles that are glass is
$50 - 19 = 31$

The total number of bottles Ella collected is
$50$

The percentage of bottles that is glass is
$= \frac{number \: of \: glass \: bottles}{total \: number \: of \: bottles} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{31}{50} \times 100\%$

$= 31 \times 2\%$
$= 62\%$

Therefore 62% of the bottles are glass
