Answer: 85/12 fewer bushels per acre

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an expression with the information given and solve it:

We simply have to divide the total loss (21 1/4) by the number of acres (3):

Mathematically speaking:

21 1/4 ÷3 = (21(4) +1)/4 ÷3 = 85/4 ÷ 3= 85/12 fewer bushels per acre

Using the bijection rule to count binary strings with even parity.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Lets denote c the concatenation of strings. For a binary string <em>a</em> in B9, we define the element f(a) in E10 this way:

  • f(a) = a c {1} if a has an odd number of 1's
  • f(a) = a c {0} if a has an even number of 1's

Step-by-step explanation:

To show that the function f defined above is a bijective function, we need to prove that f is well defined, injective and surjective.

f   is well defined:

To see this, we need to show that f sends elements fromo b9 to elements of E10. first note that f(a) has 1 more binary integer than a, thus, it has 10. if a has an even number of 1's, then f(a) also has an even number because a 0 was added. On the other hand, if a has an odd number of 1's, then f(a) has one more 1, as a consecuence it will have an even number of 1's. This shows that, independently of the case, f(a) is an element of E10. Thus, f is well defined.

f is injective (or one on one):

If a and b are 2 different binary strings, then f(a) and f(b) will also be different because the first 9 elements of f(a) form a and the first elements of f(b) form b, thus f(a) is different from f(b). This proves that f in injective.

f is surjective:

Let y be an element of E10, Let x be the first 9 elements of y, then f(x) = y:

  • If x has an even number of 1's, then the last digit of y has to be 0, and f(x) = x c {0} = y
  • If x has an odd number of 1's, then the last digit of y has to be a 1, otherwise it wont be an element of E10, and f(x) = x c {1} = y

This shows that f is well defined from B9 to E10, injective, and surjective, thus it is a bijection.

Problem page a delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. the large boxes weigh 45 pounds each, and the
marta [7]
S= number of small boxes
l= number of large boxes

equation 1:  s+l=120
equation 2:  15s+45l=3300

solve by elimination, multiply equation 1 by -15.

-15(s+l=120) =  -15s-15l=-1800  add to equation 2.

-15s+15s-15l+45l=-1800+3300  = 30l=1500

30l=1500 , l=50

s+l=120, s+50=120 --> s=70

3x+47y=1094<br><br> Solve for y.
padilas [110]

Answer:

y = \frac{1094-3x}{47}

General Formulas and Concepts:

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
  • Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define equation</u>

3x + 47y = 1094

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Subtract 3x on both sides:          47y = 1094 - 3x
  2. Divide both sides by 47:              y = (1094 - 3x)/47
