Answer:

\frac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the numbers be x,y, where x>y

The geometric mean is

\sqrt{xy}

The Arithmetic mean is

\frac{x + y}{2}

The ratio of the geometric mean and arithmetic mean of two numbers is 3:5.

\frac{ \sqrt{xy} }{ \frac{x + y}{2} }  =  \frac{3}{5}

We can write the equation;

\sqrt{xy}  = 3

or

xy = 9 -  -  - (2)

l

and

\frac{x + y}{2}  = 5

or

x + y = 10 -  -  - (2)

Make y the subject in equation 2

y = 10 - x -  -  - (3)

Put equation 3 in 1

x(10 - x) = 9

10x -  {x}^{2}  = 9

{x}^{2}  - 10x + 9 = 0

(x - 9)(x - 1) = 0

x =1  \: or \: 9

When x=1, y=10-1=9

When x=9, y=10-9=1

Therefore x=9, and y=1

The ratio of the smaller number to the larger number is

\frac{1}{9}

A club is holding a raffle. Ten thousand
Cloud [144]

First take 10,000 * 2 = 20,000, because each of the 10,000 tickets cost 2 dollars.

3000(1/20000) + 1000(3/20000) + 500(5/20000) + 100(20/10000) = 10500/20000 = .525

Thus, each ticket is worth 52.5 cents.

Hope it helps <3

A car dealership earns a portion of its profit on the accessories sold with a car. The dealer sold a Toyota Camry loaded with ac
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

y = 2666.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve this we can make a system of equations.

x = cost of car alone

y = cost of accesories,

\left \{ {{x+y=24000} \atop {x=8y}} \right.

So now we plug in 8y for x in x + y = 24000.

(8y) + y = 24000

9y = 24000

Divide both sides by 9

y = 2666.666666

or 2666.67 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Now that we have y we can plug that in for y in x=8y.

x = 8(2.666.67)

x = 21,333.33 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>accessories "y" cost around 2666.67.</em>

<em />

<em>Hope this helps :)</em>

Use Stokes' Theorem to evaluate C F · dr where C is oriented counterclockwise as viewed from above. F(x, y, z) = yzi + 4xzj + ex
natima [27]

Answer:

The result of the integral is 81π

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use Stoke's Theorem to evaluate the given integral, thus we can write first the theorem:

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S curl \vec F \cdot d\vec S

Finding the curl of F.

Given F(x,y,z) = < yz, 4xz, e^{xy} > we have:

curl \vec F =\left|\begin{array}{ccc} \hat i &\hat j&\hat k\\ \cfrac{\partial}{\partial x}& \cfrac{\partial}{\partial y}&\cfrac{\partial}{\partial z}\\yz&4xz&e^{xy}\end{array}\right|

Working with the determinant we get

curl \vec F = \left( \cfrac{\partial}{\partial y}e^{xy}-\cfrac{\partial}{\partial z}4xz\right) \hat i -\left(\cfrac{\partial}{\partial x}e^{xy}-\cfrac{\partial}{\partial z}yz \right) \hat j + \left(\cfrac{\partial}{\partial x} 4xz-\cfrac{\partial}{\partial y}yz \right) \hat k

Working with the partial derivatives

curl \vec F = \left(xe^{xy}-4x\right) \hat i -\left(ye^{xy}-y\right) \hat j + \left(4z-z\right) \hat k\\curl \vec F = \left(xe^{xy}-4x\right) \hat i -\left(ye^{xy}-y\right) \hat j + \left(3z\right) \hat k

Integrating using Stokes' Theorem

Now that we have the curl we can proceed integrating

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S curl \vec F \cdot d\vec S

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S curl \vec F \cdot \hat n dS

where the normal to the circle is just \hat n= \hat k since the normal is perpendicular to it, so we get

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S \left(\left(xe^{xy}-4x\right) \hat i -\left(ye^{xy}-y\right) \hat j + \left(3z\right) \hat k\right) \cdot \hat k dS

Only the z-component will not be 0 after that dot product we get

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S 3z dS

Since the circle is at z = 3 we can just write

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S 3(3) dS\\\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = 9\int \int_S dS

Thus the integral represents the area of a circle, the given circle x^2+y^2 = 9 has a radius r = 3, so its area is A = \pi r^2 = 9\pi, so we get

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = 9(9\pi)\\\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = 81 \pi

Thus the result of the integral is 81π
