Mathematics

katrin [286]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Let the number they chose be 'x'.

Result of Jane = 3x -2

Result of Elliot = 2x+3

Given that,

The product of their result = 110

or, (3x-2)(2x+3) = 110\\or, 6x^{2} +9x-4x-6 = 110\\or, 6x^{2} +5x - 6 = 110\\or, 6x^{2} +5x - 6-110 = 0\\\\or, 6x^{2} +5x - 116 = 0\\or, 6x^{2} +29x - 24x - 116 = 0\\or, x (6x +29) -4(6x+29) = 0\\or, (x-4)(6x+29) = 0\\i.e. x=4 or x=\frac{-29}{6} \\So,~ the ~number ~they~ chose~was ~either ~4 ~or ~\frac{-29}{6}

Ginny is studying a population of frogs. She determines that the population is decreasing at an average rate of 3% per year. Whe
svp [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is exponential, of the form

y=a(b)^x where a is the initial amount and b is the growth/decay rate. If Ginny begins the study with 1200 frogs in the population, our a value is 1200.

If the population is decreasing 3% per year, it is decreasing 100% - 3% = 97% which, as a decimal, is .97. Our exponential function, then, is

y=1200(.97)^x

Use Pythagorean theorem
kogti [31]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2+b^2=c^2

y^2+8^2=17^2

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

y^2+64=289

Step 2: Subtract 64 from both sides.

y^2+64−64=289−64

y^2=225

Step 3: Take square root.  

y=15
