Answer:

They are 53, 55, 57, 59 and 61.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the integers as x, x+2, x+4, x+6 and x+8, so

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 285

5x + 20 = 285

5x = 265

x = 53.

Jeanne babysits for $6 per hour. She also works as a reading tutor for $10 per hour. She is only allowed to work 20 hours per we

Allushta [10]

Part a) Use a system of inequalities to model the scenario

Let

x-------> represent babysitting hours

y-------> represent tutoring hours

we know that

--------> inequality

Part b) Use the model created in part A to create a graph representing Jeanne’s probable income earned and possible number of hours worked this week

we know that

--------> inequality

This inequality represent Jeanne’s possible number of hours worked this week

Using a graph tool

the solution of this inequality is the shaded area

see the attached figure N

--------> inequality

This inequality represent Jeanne’s probable income earned this week

Using a graph tool

the solution of this inequality is the shaded area

see the attached figure N

Part c) Analyze the set of coordinate values that represent solutions for the model created in part A. Choose one of the coordinates within the solution and algebraically prove that the coordinate represents a true solution for the model

we have the system of inequalities

--------> inequality

the solution of the system of inequalities is the shaded area

using a graph tool

see the attached figure N

Let

------> see the attached figure N

The point belongs to the shaded area, so it is a system solution.

If the point is a solution, it must satisfy both inequalities.

Prove algebraically

substitute the value of x and y in the inequalities

inequality

------> is ok

inequality

-------> is ok

the point A satisfy both inequalities

therefore

the point A is a solution of the system

Iris is a botanist who works for a garden that many tourists visit. the function f(s) = 2s + 25 represents the number of flowers

7nadin3 [17]

A function is said to be a composite function when a function is written in another function. The composite function that represents the number of flowers is f(w)=50w+25 and the number of flowers for 30 weeks is 1525.

Given that:

f(s)=2s+25

s(w)=25w

The number of flowers to bloom over w weeks is calculated using the following composite function: f(w)

f(s)=2s+25

Replace s with s(w)

f(s(w))=2(s(w))+25

Substitute (w)=25w

f(s(w))=2(25w)+25

f(s(w))=50w+25

Hence:

f(w)=50w+25

The units of the measurement of f(w) are flowers

The number of flowers for 30 weeks means:

w=30

So, we have:

f(w)=50w+25

f(30)=50 * 30+25

f(30)=1525

Hence, the number of flowers for 30 weeks is 1525

What are the roots of the quadratic equation x2+2x=-5

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

x = -1 +/-2i

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the equation in standard form to find the roots, also known as the solutions, zeros, or x-intercepts, of the quadratic.

x² + 2x + 5 = 0

Use the quadratic formula by substituting a= 1, b = 2 and c = 5.

$x = \frac{-2 +/- \sqrt{(-2)^2 - 4(1)(5)} }{2(1)} = \frac{-2 +/-\sqrt{4 -20 } }{2} = \frac{-2 +/-\sqrt{-16 } }{2} = \frac{-2 +/-4i }{2} = -1 +/-2i$
