Given:
Each cabinet has 5 drawers.
Each drawer can hold records for 50 clients.

Now,
Each cabinet can hold records for (50 × 5) clients
                                                 = 250 clients

Now,
Using unitary method,
250 clients records can be held up in 1 file cabinet.
1 client records can be held up in (1 / 250) file cabinet
600 client records can be held up in (1 / 250) × 600 file cabinet
                                                   = 2.4

So, <u>we need 3 file cabinets</u>...cause we cant't get 2.4 file cabinet

1 drawer= 50 clients
I used ratio and proportion first

1 drawer/50 clients= x drawers/600 clients
cross multiply
50x= 600
x= 12 drawers
12 drawers/5 per cabinet=
2/25 or 2.4
need to order 3 cabinets

hope this helps

Oakville is a fungal disease that infects oak trees scientists have discovered that a single tree in a small forest is infected
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

I solved part a

To solve this question, we need to solve an exponential equation, which we do applying the natural logarithm to both sides of the equation, getting that it will take 7.6 years for for 21 of the trees to become infected.

PART C

The logarithmic model is: g(x)= in x/0.4

We are given an exponential function, for the amount of infected trees f(x) after x years.To find the amount years needed for the number of infected trees to reach x, we find the inverse function, applying the natural logarithm.

If the parabola has y = -4 at both x = 2 and x = 3, then since a parabola is symmetric, its axis of symmetry must be between x = 2 and x = 3, or at x = 5/2. Our general equation can then be:
y = a(x - 5/2)^2 + k
Substitute (1, -2): -2 = a(-3/2)^2 + k
-2 = 9a/4 + k
Substitute (2, -4): -4 = a(-1/2)^2 + k
-4 = a/4 + k
Subtracting: 2 = 2a, so a = 1. Substituting back gives k = -17/4.
So the equation is y = (x - 5/2)^2 - 17/4
Expanding: y = x^2 - 5x + 25/4 - 17/4
y = x^2 - 5x + 2 (This is the standard form.)

A line that includes the points (9,j) and (10,4) has a slope of 1. What is the value of j?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

soln

A=(9,j)

x1=9,y1=j

B=(10,4)

x2=10,y2=4

slope=1

by using the fomulaof slope,

slope=y2-y1/x2-x1

1 =4-j/10-9

1 = 4-j/1

1=4-j

j=4-1

j=3
