Answer: Heater -Rs 2400; Fan- Rs 1600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ajay bought a fan and a heater for Rs 4000

Suppose the price of fan is x and that of heater is 4000-x

Profit on the fan is 0.25x

Loss on heater is 0.05\times (4000-x)

Total profit is 7% i.e. 0.07\times 4000

\therefore 0.07\times 4000=0.25x-0.05(4000-x)\\\Rightarrow 280=0.25x-200+0.05x\\\Rightarrow 480=0.3x\\\Rightarrow x=1600

Thus, the price of heater is 4000-1600=Rs.\ 2400

Price of fan is Rs.\ 1600

Price of heater is Rs.\ 2400

a swimming pool charges £3.60 for entry. you can save 1/3 of entry fee with a membership card. on his first visit, ken spends £5
asambeis [7]

The number of times Ken visits, given the £3.6 pool charge, and 1/3 savings per visit is 5 times.

<h3>Which method can be used to find the number of times Ken visits the pool to get back his £5?</h3>

The entry fee = £3.60

Amount saved on entry fee by having a membership card = 1/3 of the entry fee

Amount Ken spends on the membership card and the reduced entry fee = £5

Therefore;

Reduced entry fee = £3.60×(1 - 1/3) = £2.4

Amount saved per visit = £3.6 - £2.4 = £1.2

The number of visits, <em>n</em>, before he gets back his £5 is therefore;

  • n = £5/(£1.2/visit) ≈ 4.17 visits

Ken has to visit the swimming pool more than 4 times to get his £5 back.

Rounding to the next larger whole, therefore;

  • The number of visits, n, before he gets back his £5 is 5 visits

you measure the period of a mass oscillating on a vertical spring ten times as follows: period (s): 0.96, 1.40, 1.57, 1.25, 1.16
Law Incorporation [45]

For the given sample, mean = 1.307 and standard deviation = 0.1865.

Given,

Sample

xi : 0.96, 1.40, 1.57, 1.25, 1.16, 1.46, 1.44, 1.50, 1.11, 1.22

Total samples N=10

Mean,

x = (∑x_{i}) / N

= (0.96 + 1.40 + 1.57 + 1.25 + 1.16 + 1.46 + 1.44 + 1.50 + 1.11 + 1.22) / 10

 = 13.07/10

 = 1.307

Standard deviation =\sqrt{}((∑x_{i} -x)^{2}/N)

Therefore we have to calculate (∑x_{i} -x)^{2} first.

That is,

(∑x_{i} -x)^{2}

= (0.96 - 1.307)² + (1.40 - 1.307)² + (1.57 - 1.307)² + (1.25 - 1.307)² + (1.16 - 1.307)² + (1.46 - 1.307)² + (1.44 - 1.307)² + (1.50 - 1.307)² + (1.11 - 1.307)² + (1.22 - 1.307)²

= 0.34781

Now standard deviation = √((∑x_{i} -x)^{2}/N)

= \sqrt{\frac{0.34781}{10} }

= 0.1865

Therefore, for the given sample, mean = 1.307 and standard deviation = 0.1865.

The table of values represents the function g(x) and the graph shows the function f(x).
snow_tiger [21]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The first and second options:

f(x) and g(x) intersect at exactly two points.

The x-intercepts of f(x) are common to g(x)

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find the correct option (or options) , we need to remember the following:

- When a function intercepts the y-axis, it means that the "x" coordinate will be equal to 0.

- When a function intercepts the x-axis, it means that the "y" coordinate will be equal to 0.

Now, to find the correct option, we also need to compare the graphed function (f(x))  to the given table (g(x)).

So, discarding each of the given options to find the correct option, we have:

- First option, f(x) and g(x)  intersect at exactly two points: True.

From the graph we can see that f(x) intercepts the x-axis at two points (-1,0) and (1,0), also, from the table we can see that g(x) intercepts the x-axis at the same two points (-1,0) and (1,0), it means that the functions intersect at exactly two points.

Hence,  we have that f(x) and g(x)  intersect at exactly two points.

- Second option, the x-intercepts of f(x) are common to g(x): True.

From the graph we can see that f(x) intercepts the x-axis at two points (-1,0) and (1,0), also, from the table we can see that g(x) intercepts the x-axis at the same two points (-1,0) and (1,0), so, both functions intercepts the x-axis at common points.

Hence,we have that the x-intercepts of f(x) are common to g(x)

- Third option, he minimum value of f(x) is less than the minimum value of g(x): False.

From the graph, we can see that the minimum value of f(x) is located at the point (0,-1), also, from the given table for g(x) we can see that there are values below the point (2,-3), meaning that the minimum value of f(x) is NOT less than the minimum value of g(x).

Hence, we have that the minimum value of f(x) is NOT less than the minimum value of g(x).

- Fourth option, f(x) and g(x) have the same y-intercept: False.

We can see that for the function f(x) the y-intercept is located at (0,-1) while from the given table, we can see the y-intercept for the function g(x) is located at (0,1)

Hence,  we have that f(x) and g(x) have differents y-intercepts.

Therefore, the correct answers are:

The first and second options:

f(x) and g(x) intersect at exactly two points.

The x-intercepts of f(x) are common to g(x)

Have a nice day!

What is the area of a square if the length is 4x-3
frez [133]

Answer:

The area  of square in terms of x = 16x² -24x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

It is stated in the question that the length of a square = 4x - 3

Formula to find the area of the square is

Area = length²

Area = ( 4x - 3 )²

by using ( a - b )² = a² + b² - 2ab

here a = 4x and b = -3

So,

(4x)² + (-3)² - 2(4x)(3)

16x² + 9 - 2(12x)

16x² + 9 - 24x

16x² -24x + 9

The area  of square in terms of x = 16x² -24x + 9
