"a ∝ b" means "a is proportional to b", which in turn means there is some constant k such that
a = kb
We're given that a = 18 and b = 3, so that
18 = 3k ⇒ k = 6
Then when b = 5, we would have
a = 6 × 5 = 30
Answer:
a) 8
b) 12
Step-by-step explanation:
With orange: 2×2×2 = 8
With yellow: 2×2 = 4
Total = 8+4 = 12
Answer:
Yes, △ABC ∼ △FED by AA postulate.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Two triangles ABC and FED.
m∠A = m∠B
m∠C = m∠A + 30°
m∠E = m∠F = 
m∠D = 
°.
Now, let m∠A = m∠B = 
So, m∠C = m∠A + 30° = 
Now, sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180°. Therefore,
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180
Therefore, m∠A = 50°, m∠B = 50° and m∠C = m∠A + 30° = 50 + 30 = 80°.
Now, consider triangle FED,
m∠D+ m∠E + m∠F = 180
Therefore, m∠F = 50°
m∠E = 50° and
m∠D = 
So, both the triangles have congruent corresponding angle measures.
m∠A = m∠F = 50°
m∠B = m∠E = 50°
m∠C = m∠D = 80°
Therefore, the two triangles are similar by AA postulate.
Answer:
The friend caught the ball at 2 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. False; the ball was not still in the air at 1 second the x-component of the vertex is 0.5.
2. False; the x-component of the vertex is 0.5
3. True; the ball was tossed at a height of 2 feet (when x=0, y=2), it is safe to assume the ball was caught at the same height.
4. False; when x = 0, y = 2.
Answer:
17) MC(x) = 35 − 12/x²
18) R(x) = -0.05x² + 80x
Step-by-step explanation:
17) The marginal average cost function (MC) is the derivative of the average cost function (AC).
AC(x) = C(x) / x
MC(x) = d/dx AC(x)
First, find the average cost function:
AC(x) = C(x) / x
AC(x) = (5x + 3)(7x + 4) / x
AC(x) = (35x² + 41x + 12) / x
AC(x) = 35x + 41 + 12/x
Now find the marginal average cost function:
MC(x) = d/dx AC(x)
MC(x) = 35 − 12/x²
18) x is the demand, and p(x) is the price at that demand. Assuming the equation is linear, let's use the points to find the slope:
m = (40 − 50) / (800 − 600)
m = -0.05
Use point-slope form to find the equation of the line:
p(x) − 50 = -0.05 (x − 600)
p(x) − 50 = -0.05x + 30
p(x) = -0.05x + 80
The revenue is the product of price and demand:
R(x) = x p(x)
R(x) = x (-0.05x + 80)
R(x) = -0.05x² + 80x
