Given that:

James is 6 times older than his friend Zach, if Zach added 8 to his age and multiplied this sum by 3 .

To find:

The equation that can be used to solve for zach's age.

Solution:

Let the age of zach be Z.

Zach added 8 to his age = Z+8

And multiplied this sum by 3 = 3(Z+8)

James is 6 times older than his friend Zach = 6Z

Now,

$6Z=3(Z+8)$

$6Z-3Z=24$

$3Z=24$

Divide both sides by 3.

$Z=8$

Therefore, the required equation is $6Z=3(Z+8)$ is age of zach is 8 years.

A gardener uses 144 feet of fencing to build a rectangular garden. The function A(w)=24w−w2 can be used to find the area of the

levacccp [35]

Answer:

The graph of the equation is shown in the picture attached below.

We can see w = 12 corresponds to the global maximum of the function, and for any w greater than 12 the value of A(w) decreases.

This means that for any value of the width greater than 12, the function cannot model the situation.

Making the equation only valid for

w ∈ [0,12]

Mom put plums and apples onto a plate. The ratio of the number of plums to the number of apples was 3:2. How many fruit did mom

Delvig [45]

Answer:

30 fruits

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> number of plums on the plate

y ----> number of apples on the plate

we know that

The ratio of the number of plums to the number of apples was 3:2

so

$\frac{x}{y} =\frac{3}{2}$

$x=1.5y$ ----> equation A

After Ed took 6 plums from the plate, the number of plums remaining on the plate became the same as the number of apples

so

$x-6=y$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$1.5y-6=y$

solve for y

$1.5y-y=6\\0.5y=6\\y=12$

Find the value of x

$x=1.5(12)=18$

therefore

Mon put on the table

$x+y=18+12=30\ fruits$

find the volume of the solid formed by revolving the region bounded by the graphs of y = 4x - x^2 and f(x) = x^2 from [0,2] abou

Neko [114]

Answer:

$v = \frac{32\pi}{3}$

or

$v=33.52$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 4x - x^2$

$g(x) = x^2$

$[a,b] = [0,2]$

Required

The volume of the solid formed

Rotating about the x-axis.

Using the washer method to calculate the volume, we have:

$\int dv = \int\limit^b_a \pi(f(x)^2 - g(x)^2) dx$

Integrate

$v = \int\limit^b_a \pi(f(x)^2 - g(x)^2)\ dx$

$v = \pi \int\limit^b_a (f(x)^2 - g(x)^2)\ dx$

Substitute values for a, b, f(x) and g(x)

$v = \pi \int\limit^2_0 ((4x - x^2)^2 - (x^2)^2)\ dx$

Evaluate the exponents

$v = \pi \int\limit^2_0 (16x^2 - 4x^3 - 4x^3 + x^4 - x^4)\ dx$

Simplify like terms

$v = \pi \int\limit^2_0 (16x^2 - 8x^3 )\ dx$

Factor out 8

$v = 8\pi \int\limit^2_0 (2x^2 - x^3 )\ dx$

Integrate

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{2x^{2+1}}{2+1} - \frac{x^{3+1}}{3+1} ]|\limit^2_0$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{2x^{3}}{3} - \frac{x^{4}}{4} ]|\limit^2_0$

Substitute 2 and 0 for x, respectively

$v = 8\pi ([ \frac{2*2^{3}}{3} - \frac{2^{4}}{4} ] - [ \frac{2*0^{3}}{3} - \frac{0^{4}}{4} ])$

$v = 8\pi ([ \frac{2*2^{3}}{3} - \frac{2^{4}}{4} ] - [ 0 - 0])$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{2*2^{3}}{3} - \frac{2^{4}}{4} ]$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{16}{3} - \frac{16}{4} ]$

Take LCM

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{16*4- 16 * 3}{12}]$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{64- 48}{12}]$

$v = 8\pi * \frac{16}{12}$

Simplify

$v = 8\pi * \frac{4}{3}$

$v = \frac{32\pi}{3}$

or

$v=\frac{32}{3} * \frac{22}{7}$

$v=\frac{32*22}{3*7}$

$v=\frac{704}{21}$

$v=33.52$
