Answer: The cat is 2/3 times as heavy as the dog.


Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of Priya's cat =5\frac{1}{2}\ pounds

Now, 5\frac{1}{2}=\frac{11}{2}\ pounds

The weight of her dog =8\frac{1}{4}\ pounds

8\frac{1}{4}=\frac{33}{4}\ pounds

Let cat is n times heavy as dog.

Then n=\text{cat's weight}\div\text{dog's weight}

n=\frac{{11}{2}\div\frac{33}{4}\\\Rightarrow\ n=\frac{11}{2}\times\frac{4}{33}\\\Rightarrow\ n=\frac{2}{3}

Hence, The cat is 2/3 times as heavy as the dog.

Solve the system of equations by finding the reduced row-echelon form of the augmented matrix for the system of equations.
ycow [4]

This  involves quite a lot of arithmetic to do manually.

The first thing you do is to make the first number in  row 2  = to 0.

This is done by R2 = -3/2 R1 + R2

so the matrix becomes

( 2        1          1)    ( -3 )

( 0    -13/2   3/2)   (1/2 )

(5       -1           2)  (-2)

Next step is to make  the 5 in row 5  = 0  

then  the -1  must become zero

You aim  for the form

( 1 0 0) (x)

(0 1 0) (y)

(0 0 1) ( z)

x , y and z will be the required solutions.

I can’t explain look at picture
const2013 [10]

Answer:

x = 12.48

y = 13.22

Step-by-step explanation

Im not sure if its correct

10^2 + b^2 = 16^2

100 + b^2 = 256

b^2 = √156

b = 12.48

b= 12 ( If needed to round to the nearest whole number)

a^2 + 15^2 = 20^2

a^2 + 225 = 400

a^2 = √175

a = 13.22

a = 13 ( If needed to round to nearest whole number)

128 is 74% of what number?
Hatshy [7]
74% means 0.74
"of" means "times"

So,    128 = 0.74 times (the number)

Divide each side of this equation by 0.74 :

128/0.74 = the number

<em>172.973</em> (rounded) = the number

How do you do these two questions?
nignag [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) ∫₋ₒₒ°° f(x) dx

We can split this into three integrals:

= ∫₋ₒₒ⁻¹ f(x) dx + ∫₋₁¹ f(x) dx + ∫₁°° f(x) dx

Since the function is even (symmetrical about the y-axis), we can further simplify this as:

= ∫₋₁¹ f(x) dx + 2 ∫₁°° f(x) dx

The first integral is finite, so it converges.

For the second integral, we can use comparison test.

g(x) = e^(-½ x) is greater than f(x) = e^(-½ x²) for all x greater than 1.

We can show that g(x) converges:

∫₁°° e^(-½ x) dx = -2 e^(-½ x) |₁°° = -2 e^(-∞) − -2 e^(-½) = 0 + 2e^(-½).

Therefore, the smaller function f(x) also converges.

(b) The width of the intervals is:

Δx = (3 − -3) / 6 = 1

Evaluating the function at the beginning and end of each interval:

f(-3) = e^(-9/2)

f(-2) = e^(-2)

f(-1) = e^(-1/2)

f(0) = 1

f(1) = e^(-1/2)

f(2) = e^(-2)

f(3) = e^(-9/2)

Apply Simpson's rule:

S = Δx/3 [f(-3) + 4f(-2) + 2f(-1) + 4f(0) + 2f(1) + 4f(2) + f(3)]

S ≈ 2.5103
