Mr. Martin’s math test which is worth 100 points has 29questions. Each problem is worth 2points or 5 points. X represents number

of 5point questions and y represents questions worth 2 points. X+y=29, 5x+2y=100 How many problems of each point value are on the test?

Answer:there are 14 5point problems and 15 2point problems on the test.

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents number of 5 point questions and y represents questions worth 2 points.

The total number of questions in the test is 29. It means that

x + y = 29

x = 29 - y

Mr. Martin’s math test is worth 100 points. It means that

5x + 2y = 100 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 29 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5(29 - y) + 2y = 100

145 - 5y + 2y = 100

- 5y + 2y = 100 - 145

- 3y = - 45

y = - 45/-3

y = 15

x = 29 - y = 29 - 15

x = 14

LuckyWell [14K]
To best estimate the volume of the log, we assume that the diameter is the average of the diameters at both ends giving us 12 inches as the diameter. Thus, the radius is equal to 0.5 ft. The volume of the log is calculated through the equation,
                      V = πr²h = π(0.5 ft)²(10 ft) = 7.85 ft³

Find all values of x for which the series converges. (enter your answer using interval notation. ) [infinity] (4x)n n = 1
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The series converges to  1/(1-9x) for -1/9<x<1/9                  

Given the series is  ∑ 9x^{n} x^{n}

We have to find the values of x for which the series converges.

We know,                

∑ ar^{n-1}    converges to  (a) / (1-r) if r < 1

Otherwise the series will diverge.

Here, ∑ (9x)^{n} is a geometric series with |r| = | 9x |

And it converges for |9x| < 1

Hence, the given series gets converge for -1/9<x<1/9

And geometric series converges to a/(1-r)

Here, a = 1 and r = 9x

Therefore, a/(1-r) = 1/(1-9x)

Hence, the given series converges to   1/1-9x  for  -1/9<x<1/9

Simplify.
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the expression √3/√8, we can first simplify the square root terms by finding the prime factorization of each number under the square root. The prime factorization of 3 is 3, and the prime factorization of 8 is 2 * 2 * 2.

We can then rewrite the square root terms as follows:

√3/√8 = √(3) / √(2 * 2 * 2)

Next, we can use the property of square roots that says that the square root of a number is equal to the square root of each of its prime factors. This means that we can rewrite the square root term as follows:

√(3) / √(2 * 2 * 2) = √(3) / √(2) / √(2) / √(2)

Since the square root of a number is the same as the number itself, we can simplify the expression further by removing the square root symbols from the prime numbers 2:

√(3) / √(2) / √(2) / √(2) = √(3) / 2 / 2 / 2

Finally, we can use the rules of division to simplify the expression even further:

√(3) / 2 / 2 / 2 = √(3) / (2 * 2 * 2)

Since any number divided by itself is equal to 1, we can simplify the expression one last time to get our final answer:

√(3) / (2 * 2 * 2) = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

Therefore, the simplified form of the expression √3/√8 is 1/8.
