Three fourths of a number p less than two is five sixths of another number r plus five solve for r

1 answer:

5 0

r = -3/4p - 18/5
(or you could put 3.6 or 3 3/5 instead of 18/5)

2 - 3/4p = 5/6r + 5
-5 -5
-3 - 3/4p = 5/6r
/(5/6) /(5/6)
-18/5 - 3/4p = r
-3/4p - 18/5 = r

The exponential equation of the model is A(t) = 2583 * 0.88^t and the multiplier means that the number of new cases in a week is 88% of the previous week

<h3>The function that models the data</h3>

The given parameters are:

New, A(t) = 2000

Rate, r = 12%

The function is represented as:

A(t) = A * (1 - r)^t

So, we have:

2000 = A * (1 - 12%)^t

This gives

2000 = A * (0.88)^t

2 weeks ago implies that;

t = 2

So, we have:

2000 = A * 0.88^2

Evaluate

2000 = A * 0.7744

Divide by 0.7744

A = 2583

Substitute A = 2583 in A(t) = A * 0.88^t

A(t) = 2583 * 0.88^t

Hence, the exponential equation of the model is A(t) = 2583 * 0.88^t

<h3>The interpretation of the multiplier</h3>

In this case, the multiplier is 88% or 0.88

This means that the number of new cases in a week is 88% of the previous week

The amount of gas that a helicopter uses is directly proportional to the number of hours spent flying. The helicopter flies for

dezoksy [38]

Answer: 44 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Using proportion,

33 gallons = 3hours

X = 4hours

Cross multiply

3 × X = 33 × 4

3X = 132

Divide bothside by 3

3x/3 =132/3

X = 44

Therefore the helicopter uses 44gallons for 4 hours.

The Best Company produces two commercial products : blenders and mixers. Both products require a two step production process inv

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Maximum profit is $87 when 3 blenders and 11 mixers are produced.

Step-by-step explanation:

let blender is represented by $x_{1}$ and and mixer by $x_{2}$ .

total time to deliver parts = 24 hrs

total time to assemble = 30 hrs

time taken by each blender to deliver parts = 1 hr

time taken by each mixer to deliver parts = 2 hr

time taken by blenders in final assembling= 2 hr

time taken by mixers in final assembling = 3 hr

Each blender produced nets the firm= $7

Each mixer produced nets the firm= $6

Using this all data linear system of equation will be:

$x_{1} + 2x_{2} =24 ----- (1)\\2x_{1} + 2x_{2} = 30 ----- (2)\\$

profit function:

$z= 7x_{1} +6x_{2} --- (3)$

$from (1)\\x_{1} = 0 \implies x_{2}= 12\\x_{2}= 0 \implies x_{1}= 24\\$

Coordinate points obtained from (1) are (0,12) and (24,0)

$from (2)\\x_{1}=0 \implies x_{2}=10\\x_{2}=0 \implies x_{1}=15\\$

Coordinate points obtained from (2) are (0,10) and (15,0)

plotting these on graph

points lying in feasible region are:

A(0,0)

B(0,10)

C(3,11)

D(12,0)

substituting these points in (3) to find the maximum profit:

for A (0,0)

z = 0

for B (0,10)

z = 60

for C (3,11)

z = 87

for D (12,0)

z=84

So maximum profit is $87 when 3 blenders and 11 mixers are produced.
