st, y, of x shirts.
Public

Wholesale
A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 18, 35, 50. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 162, 315, 360.

How do the slopes of the lines created by each table compare?
The slope of the Public table is Three-fourths of the slope of the Wholesale table.
The slope of the Wholesale table is Three-fourths of the slope of the Public table.
The slope of the Public table is 12 times greater than the slope of the Wholesale table.

<u>Correction</u>

A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 18, 35, 40. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 162, 315, 360.

Answer:

(B)The slope of the Wholesale table is Three-fourths of the slope of the Public table.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points from the public table

(2,24),(5,60),(9,108)

Slope=\dfrac{60-24}{5-2} =\dfrac{36}{3}=12

Given the points from the wholesale table

(18,162),(35,315),(50,360)

Slope=\dfrac{315-162}{35-18} =\dfrac{153}{17}=9

\frac{3}{4}X$Slope of Public Table=Slope of Wholesale Table$ \\\dfrac{3}{4} X 12=9

Therefore, we can see that the slope of the Wholesale table is Three-fourths of the slope of the Public table.

A 500-gallon tank initially contains 220 gallons of pure distilled water. Brine containing 5 pounds of salt per gallon flows int
Wittaler [7]

Answer: The amount of salt in the tank after 8 minutes is 36.52 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salt in the tank is modelled by the Principle of Mass Conservation, which states:

(Salt mass rate per unit time to the tank) - (Salt mass per unit time from the tank) = (Salt accumulation rate of the tank)

Flow is measured as the product of salt concentration and flow. A well stirred mixture means that salt concentrations within tank and in the output mass flow are the same. Inflow salt concentration remains constant. Hence:

c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = \frac{d(V_{tank}(t) \cdot c(t))}{dt}

By expanding the previous equation:

c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} \cdot c(t)

The tank capacity and capacity rate of change given in gallons and gallons per minute are, respectivelly:

V_{tank} = 220\\\frac{dV_{tank}(t)}{dt} = 0

Since there is no accumulation within the tank, expression is simplified to this:

c_{0} \cdot f_{in} - c(t) \cdot f_{out} = V_{tank}(t) \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt}

By rearranging the expression, it is noticed the presence of a First-Order Non-Homogeneous Linear Ordinary Differential Equation:

V_{tank} \cdot \frac{dc(t)}{dt} + f_{out} \cdot c(t) = c_0 \cdot f_{in}, where c(0) = 0 \frac{pounds}{gallon}.

\frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}} \cdot c(t) = \frac{c_0}{V_{tank}} \cdot f_{in}

The solution of this equation is:

c(t) = \frac{c_{0}}{f_{out}} \cdot ({1-e^{-\frac{f_{out}}{V_{tank}}\cdot t }})

The salt concentration after 8 minutes is:

c(8) = 0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}

The instantaneous amount of salt in the tank is:

m_{salt} = (0.166 \frac{pounds}{gallon}) \cdot (220 gallons)\\m_{salt} = 36.52 pounds

Identify all the sets to which 0.41567 belongs. Choose from rational,irrational,whole,and integer
jok3333 [9.3K]
0.41567 is:
 
... rational because it can be expressed as a fraction (e.g., 41567/100000)
... not irrational for the same reason
... not whole (obviously)
... not integer (obviously)

45.6/109.2 = x/115<br><br> Is x, 48.02?
MAXImum [283]
Yes correct x is 48.02 here is why.

simplify 45.6/109.2 to 0.417582

multiply both sides by 115

simplify 0.417582 x 115 to 48.021978

switch sides

Answer: x = 48.021978

A student solves the following equation and
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Since the equation is undefined for -2

Therefore, NO SOLUTION for the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

\frac{3}{a+2}-6\cdot \frac{a}{-4+a^2}=\frac{1}{a-2}

\frac{3}{a+2}-\frac{6a}{-4+a^2}=\frac{1}{a-2}

\mathrm{Find\:Least\:Common\:Multiplier\:of\:}a+2,\:-4+a^2,\:a-2:\quad \left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)

\mathrm{Multiply\:by\:LCM=}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)

\frac{3}{a+2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)-\frac{6a}{-4+a^2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)=\frac{1}{a-2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right)

as

  • \frac{3}{a+2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right):\quad 3\left(a-2\right)
  • -\frac{6a}{-4+a^2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right):\quad -6a
  • \frac{1}{a-2}\left(a+2\right)\left(a-2\right):\quad a+2

so equation becomes

3\left(a-2\right)-6a=a+2  

-3a-6=a+2

-3a-6+6=a+2+6

-4a=8

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-4

\frac{-4a}{-4}=\frac{8}{-4}

a=-2

\mathrm{Verify\:Solutions}

\mathrm{Take\:the\:denominator\left(s\right)\:of\:}\frac{3}{a+2}-6\frac{a}{-4+a^2}-\frac{1}{a-2}\mathrm{\:and\:compare\:to\:zero}

\mathrm{Solve\:}\:a+2=0:\quad a=-2

\mathrm{Solve\:}\:-4+a^2=0:\quad a=2,\:a=-2

\mathrm{Solve\:}\:a-2=0:\quad a=2

So the following points are undefined

a=-2,\:a=2

Since the equation is undefined for -2

Therefore, NO SOLUTION for the given equation.

A basketball player makes 70% of the free throws he shoots. Suppose that he tries 15 free throws.
Volgvan

Answer:

a.) .95

b.) The expected number of baskets is 10.50.

c.) 1.7748

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) This is a binomial distribution as there are two possibilities: makes a free throw or doesn't. This means that you can use the binomial function on a calculator to figure out the answer. Use the binomial CDF function on a calculator and the number of trials=15, probability of success=.7, lower bound=0, upper bound=7. Once you have evaluated the answer, .0500, it will need to be subtracted from1, as you want everything not included in this section. The answer to part a is thus 1-.0500=.95.

b.) The expected value is calculated by taking the total number of shots and multiplying it by the probability of making the shot: 15×.7=10.5 shots.

c.) The standard deviation of a binomial distribution can be calculated by the formula \sqrt{(sample size)(probability)(1-probability)}. Plugging in the numbers you get \sqrt{(15)(.7)(.3)}=1.7748.
