Answer:

The inequality that represents this situation is: 140 + 45*n < p

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the plane already had 140 pounds on board and "n" boxes will be loaded on it, then the weigh of each box multiplied by the number of box should be the extra cargo on the plane. This extra cargo added to the previous load must be less than the limit of cargo the plane can take as shown below:

140 + 45*n < p

Nina knows that the average of the x-intercepts represents the line of symmetry for a quadratic function through the x-axis. Whi
Ghella [55]

Answer:

To get the x-intercepts of the function, f(x) = 4x2 – 24x + 20

It has to be equated to zero and the values of x are the x-intercepts. So,

4x2 – 24x + 20 = 0

The resulting equation is a quadratic equation which can be solved by different methods. The solution is

x = 5, 1

The average therefore is:

(1+5/)2 = 3

The number of mosquitoes M(x), in millions, in a certain area depends on the June rainfall x, in inches: M(x) = 13 x - x2. What
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The number of mosquitoes is maximum for 6.5 inches rainfall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

M(x)=13x-x^2                   .... (1)

where, M(x) is number of mosquitoes in millions and x the June rainfall in inches.

We need to find the rainfall that produces the maximum number of mosquitoes.

Differential the above function with respect to x.

M'(x)=13-2x               .... (2)

Equate first derivative equal to 0.

13-2x=0

2x=13

x=\frac{13}{2}=6.5

Differential function (2) with respect to x.

M''(x)=-2

Double derivative is negative. So, the value of function is maximum at x=6.5.

Therefore, the number of mosquitoes is maximum for 6.5 inches rainfall.

A triangular playground has angles with measures in ratio 8: 3: 9 what is the measure of the smallest angle
maria [59]
8x + 3× + 9x = 180

20x = 180
x = 180/20
x = 9

The smallest angle is: 3×9 = 27 degrees

Note: 180 degrees is the sum of angles in a triangle

Can someone help me with this in a scientific notation
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

3.762 x 10^-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright this has the same exact concept as other scientific notation problems.

First, multiply your first numbers: 4.18 x 9 = 37.62

Next, we add our powers together -4 +-4 = -8 (can also be read as -4 - 4 = -8)

We now have 37.62 x 10^-8

Wait! This isn't in scientific notation.

Taking a closer look at this we see 37.62 x 10^-8 can be adjusted by moving the decimal over to the left. Scientific notation must be in simplest form with only one number on the left of the decimal. This gives up 3.762.

Now we need to adjust our notation. Since we moved the decimal over one we are adding one more power to our problem.

Our current power of -8 is now adding a power due to moving the decimal place over one unit to the left. This is equivalent to saying -8 + 1 which equals -7. Now that we fixed our powers, we can put our equation back together for our final answer

3.762 x 10^-7
