Given:

An elevator has a weight limit of less than 900 pounds.

A student weighing 95 pounds get on the elevator.

To find:

The inequality to represent the remaining weight, x, that can be added.

Solution:

Let x be the remaining weight that can be added.

A student weighing 95 pounds get on the elevator.

So, total weight on the elevator = x+95 pounds.

An elevator has a weight limit of less than 900 pounds.  It means, total weight on elevator must be less than 900 pounds.

x+95

Subtracting 95 from both sides.

x

x

It means, the remaining weight that can be added is less than 805 pounds.

Therefore, the required inequality is x.

Daria sells televisions. She earns a fixed amount for each television and an additional $15 if the buyer gets an extended warran
Genrish500 [490]

Answer: $70

Step-by-step explanation:

11 x 15 = 165    -    this is the amount she gets for all 11 of the extended warranties

935 - 165 = 770    -   this is the amount she gets for all 11 of the televisions

770 / 11 = 70      -      this is the amount she gets for 1 television

How to work vector algebra
erica [24]

Vectors and vector addition:

A scalar is a quantity like mass or temperature that only has a magnitude. On the other had, a vector is a mathematical object that has magnitude and direction. A line of given length and pointing along a given direction, such as an arrow, is the typical representation of a vector. Typical notation to designate a vector is a boldfaced character, a character with and arrow on it, or a character with a line under it (i.e., ). The magnitude of a vector is its length and is normally denoted by or A.  Addition of two vectors is accomplished by laying the vectors head to tail in sequence to create a triangle such as is shown in the figure.  The following rules apply in vector algebra.where P and Q are vectors and a is a scalar. 

Unit vectors:

A unit vector is a vector of unit length. A unit vector is sometimes denoted by replacing the arrow on a vector with a "^" or just adding a "^" on a boldfaced character (i.e., ). Therefore, Any vector can be made into a unit vector by dividing it by its length. Any vector can be fully represented by providing its magnitude and a unit vector along its direction.

Base vectors and vector components:

Base vectors are a set of vectors selected as a base to represent all other vectors. The idea is to construct each vector from the addition of vectors along the base directions. For example, the vector in the figure can be written as the sum of the three vectors u1, u2, and u3, each along the direction of one of the base vectors e1, e2, and e3, so that Each one of the vectors u1, u2, and u3 is parallel to one of the base vectors and can be written as scalar multiple of that base. Let u1, u2, and u3 denote these scalar multipliers such that one has<span> </span><span>The original vector</span><span> </span><span>u</span><span> </span><span>can now be written as </span><span>The scalar multipliers</span><span> </span><span>u</span><span>1</span><span>,</span><span> </span><span>u</span><span>2</span><span>, and</span><span> </span><span>u</span><span>3</span><span> </span><span>are known as the components of</span><span> </span><span>u</span><span> </span><span>in the base described by the base vectors</span><span> </span><span>e</span><span>1</span><span>,</span><span> </span><span>e</span><span>2</span><span>, and</span><span> </span><span>e</span><span>3</span><span>.

If the base vectors are unit vectors and are mutually orthogonal, then the base is known as an orthonormal, Euclidean, or Cartesian base.</span>

 

A vector can be resolved along any two directions in a plane containing it.

Find the x-intercepts of the parabola with vertex (1, -9) and y intercept at (0, -6).
Sergio [31]
Hello,

Equation is y=k(x-1)²-9
and when x=0,y=-6==>-6=k*1²-9==>k=3

y=3(x-1)²-9
when y=0, 3(x-1)²-9=0
==>(x-1-√3)(x-1+√3)=0
x-intercepts are (1+√3,0) and (1-√3,0)
