Answer:

Hence, a carpenter can paint a maximum of 7 chairs.

Hence, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A carpenter has less than 120 min. to spend painting furniture each day.

Today, he has spent 30.5 min. painting a desk.

Now he will paint x chairs, each of which takes 12.5 min.

i.e. he will take a total of 12.5x minutes in painting 'x' chairs.

Also total time spent on painting furniture each day will be equal to time spent on painting a desk and all of the chairs.

Hence,

30.5+12.5x<120 (since the total time he spends on painting is less than 120 mins.)

⇒ 12.5 x<120-30.5

⇒ 12.5 x<89.5

⇒ x<7.16 ( on dividing both side of the inequality with 12.5)

Hence, a carpenter can paint a maximum of 7 chairs.

Most
assume 120 mins

30.5 spent
120=30.5=89.5 left

time/timeperdesk=number of desks
89.5/12.5=7.16

less
7 desks

X and y vary inversely and x=50 when y=5 find y when x=10 what is k?

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Part A)

1) $k=250$

2) $y=25$

Part B)

1) $k=7$

2) $y=84$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) x and y vary inversely and x=50 when y=5 find y when x=10 what is k?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form $y*x=k$ or $y=k/x$

step 1

<u>Find the value of k</u>

x=50 when y=5

substitute the values

$y*x=k$ ------> $5*50=k$ -----> $k=250$

The equation is equal to

$y*x=250$ or $y=250/x$

step 2

<u>Find y when x=10</u>

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

$y*(10)=250$

$y=250/10=25$

Part B) x and y vary directly and x=6 when y=42 find k what is y when x=12

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

step 1

<u>Find the value of k</u>

x=6 when y=42

substitute the values

$y/x=k$ ------> $42/6=k$ -----> $k=7$

The equation is equal to

$y/x=7$ or $y=7x$

step 2

<u>Find y when x=12</u>

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

$y=7(12)=84$

A circle has a circumference of 37 millimeters. What is the circle's

olasank [31]

Answer:

5.9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find radius from circumference you need to divide it by pie. So 37 divided by 3.14 is 11.7834394904. This is the diameter. Now divide it by 2, in this case it is 5.89171974522. When you round to the nearest tenth it gives you 5.9. Hope this Helps!

The functions f and g are graphed in the same rectangular coordinate system, shown to the right. If g is obtained from f through

german

The first thing we notice is that the function is reflected. So we can start by reflecting it with respect to the x-axis.

We do this by adding a negative sign in the function:

$\begin{gathered} f_0(x)=x^2 \\ f_1(x)=-f_0(x)=-x^2 \end{gathered}$

Now, we have the function reflected, but in the wrong position. We can track its position by the vertex. It was originally at (0,0) and remains at (0,0) after the reflection.

But the final function have its vertex at (-5,0), so we have to translate the function 5 units to the left. we do this by adding 5 to the x in the function:

$f_2(x)=f_1(x+5)=-(x+5)^2$

Now, to check if there isn't any dilatation, we can check on other point in the graph to see if it checks out.

In the blue graph, we see the point (-3,-4), so let's input x = -3 and see if it checks out:

$f_2(-3)=-(-3+5)^2=-(2)^2=-4$

We got y = -4, so it checks out.

Thus, the answer is:

$g(x)=-(x+5)^2$
