Hi There!

Answer:

$24

Step-by-step explanation:

= 1/4 + 1/3

= 3/12 + 4/12

= 7/12

7/12a + 8 = 22

Subtract 8 to both sides of the equation.

7/12a + 8 - 8 = 22 - 8

Simplify

7/12a = 14

Switch

a = 12/7 * 14

Simplify

a = $24

Hope This Helps :)

I believe the answer is (a+c, b) but I'd double check to make sure.

ABC shipping charges $7 plus $1 a pound to ship an overnight package. XYZ shipping charges $10 plus $0.75 a pound to ship an ove
sergij07 [2.7K]

x = lbs

y = total cost

ABC shipping: $7 + $1x = y

XYZ shipping: $10 + $0.75x = y

We set each equation equal to the other.

$7 + $1x = $10 + $0.75x. Subtract $7 from both sides and subtract $0.75x from both sides

$0.25x = $3. Divide each side by $0.25.

x = 12 lbs

When a package is 12lbs the cost is the same.

Which table represents exponential growth?
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function y=a^x shows the exponential growth if a>1.

Consider choice B.

If x=1, then y=2=2^1;

if x=2, then y=4=2^2;

if x=3, then y=8=2^3;

if x=4, then y=16=2^4.

This means that the function y=2^x represents the table B.

Use the method of cylindrical shells to find the volume generated by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the s
Furkat [3]

Answer:

\frac{16\pi}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

I graphed the region in the image below. The blue line is y=3, the purple line is x=1 and the green curve is y = 4x-x^{2}. The shaded region in blue is the region we are going to rotate.

Now, to find the volume  v= 2\pi \int\limits^a_b {p(x)h(x)} \, dx where a=1, b=3 (left and right points of the region), p(x) is the distance from the rotation axis to the diferential Δx, we say p(x)=x and h(x) is the height of the region, in this case is h(x)= 4x-x^{2}-3. Then,

v =  2\pi \int\limits^1_3 {x(4x-x^{2}-3)} \, dx

=  2\pi \int\limits^1_3 {4x^{2}-x^{3}-3x} \, dx

= 2\pi (\frac{4x^{3}}{3}-\frac{x^{4}}{4}-\frac{3x^{2}}{2})^{3}_1

= 2\pi (36-\frac{81}{4}-\frac{27}{2}-\frac{4}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{2})

= 2\pi*\frac{8}{3}

=  \frac{16\pi}{3}.
