w(1+0.1)=1.1 w

Answer
1.1 w

Joe bought 5 apples and 4 bananas for $6. Dawn bought 3 apples and 6 bananas for $6.30. How much foes each apple and each banana

zepelin [54]

Answer:

Apple = $0.6

Banana = $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent Apple by A and Banana by B

For Joe,

5A + 4B = 6 (1)

For Dawn

3A + 6B = 6.3 (2)

To eliminate A, Multiply equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 5

15A + 12B = 18 (3)

15A + 30B = 31.5 (4)

subtracting equation (4) from (3)

15A - 15A +12B - 30B = 18 - 31.5

-18B = -13.5

divide through by -18

-18B/-18 = -13.5/-18

B = 0.75

substitute 0.75 in equation (1)

5A + 4B = 6

5A + 4(0.75) = 6

5A + 3 = 6

subtract 3 from both sides

5A + 3 - 3 = 6 - 3

5A = 3

divide through by 5

5A/5 = 3/5

A = 0.6

A car enters a turnpike 22 miles north of the town. The car travels north at an average speed of 60 miles per hour. How far is t

QveST [7]

Answer:

y = 60x + 22

262 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the car enters the turnpike at 22 miles, his initial starting point, or initial value (b) is 22. You also know the rate at which the car travels is 60 miles per hour, which is the slope (m). Using the slope-intercept formula of a linear function: y = mx + b, you can plug in your initial value and rate:

y = 60x + 22, where y = the total miles and x = the number of hours traveled

After 4 hours:

y = 60(4) + 22 = 240 + 22 = 262 miles

Find the numbers b such that the average value of f(x) = 7 + 10x − 9x2 on the interval [0, b] is equal to 8.

barxatty [35]

Answer:

The numbers $b$ such that the average value of $f(x) = 7 +10\cdot x - 9\cdot x^{2}$ on the interval [0, b] is equal to 8 are $b_{1} \approx 1.434$ and $b_{2} \approx 0.232$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean value of function within a given interval is given by the following integral:

$\bar f = \frac{1}{b-a}\cdot \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx$

If $f(x) = 7 +10\cdot x - 9\cdot x^{2}$ , $a = 0$ , $b = b$ and $\bar f = 8$ , then:

$\frac{1}{b}\cdot \int\limits^b_0 {7+10\cdot x -9\cdot x^{2}} \, dx = 8$

$\frac{7}{b}\int\limits^b_0 \, dx + \frac{10}{b} \int\limits^b_0 {x}\, dx - \frac{9}{b} \int\limits^b_0 {x^{2}}\, dx = 8$

$\left(\frac{7}{b} \right)\cdot b + \left(\frac{10}{b} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{b^{2}}{2} \right)-\left(\frac{9}{b} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{b^{3}}{3} \right) = 8$

$7 + 5\cdot b - 3\cdot b^{2} = 8$

$3\cdot b^{2}-5\cdot b +1 = 0$

The roots of this polynomial are determined by the Quadratic Formula:

$b_{1} \approx 1.434$ and $b_{2} \approx 0.232$ .

The numbers $b$ such that the average value of $f(x) = 7 +10\cdot x - 9\cdot x^{2}$ on the interval [0, b] is equal to 8 are $b_{1} \approx 1.434$ and $b_{2} \approx 0.232$ .
