Answer:

6 tickets were purchased at $47

8 tickets were purchased at $57

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the tickets purchased at $47 be x

Let the tickets purchased at $57 be y

We can form an equation from the question given which will be:

x + y = 14 ....... i

47x + 57y = 738 ........ ii

From equation i

x = 14 - y ........ iii

Substitute iii into ii

47x + 57y = 738

47(14-y) + 57y = 738

658 - 47y + 57y = 738

Collect like terms

-47y + 57y = 738 - 658

10y = 80

y = 80/10

y = 8

8 tickets were purchased at $57

Note that from i

x + y = 14

x + 8 = 14

x = 14 - 8

x = 6

6 tickets were purchased at $47

Can someone help please???
Dovator [93]

Answer:

Length: x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 8x + 15 = length × width

x² + 8x + 15

x² + 5x + 3x + 15

x(x + 5) + 3(x + 5)

(x + 5)(x + 3)

Width: (x + 3)

Length: (x + 5)

The​ life, in​ years, of a certain type of electrical switch has an exponential distribution with an average life β=44. If 100 o
Bond [772]

Answer:

0.9999

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that measures the time that a switch will survive.

If X has an exponential distribution with an average life β=44, then the probability that a switch will survive less than n years is given by

\bf P(X

So, the probability that a switch fails in the first year is

\bf P(X

Now we have 100 of these switches installed in different systems, and let Y be the random variable that measures the the probability that exactly k switches will fail in the first year.

Y can be modeled with a binomial distribution where the probability of “success” (failure of a switch) equals 0.0225 and  

\bf P(Y=k)=\binom{100}{k}(0.02247)^k(1-0.02247)^{100-k}

where  

\bf \binom{100}{k} equals combinations of 100 taken k at a time.

The probability that at most 15 fail during the first year is

\bf \sum_{k=0}^{15}\binom{100}{k}(0.02247)^k(1-0.02247)^{100-k}=0.9999

Use Stokes' Theorem to evaluate C F · dr where C is oriented counterclockwise as viewed from above. F(x, y, z) = yzi + 4xzj + ex
natima [27]

Answer:

The result of the integral is 81π

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use Stoke's Theorem to evaluate the given integral, thus we can write first the theorem:

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S curl \vec F \cdot d\vec S

Finding the curl of F.

Given F(x,y,z) = < yz, 4xz, e^{xy} > we have:

curl \vec F =\left|\begin{array}{ccc} \hat i &\hat j&\hat k\\ \cfrac{\partial}{\partial x}& \cfrac{\partial}{\partial y}&\cfrac{\partial}{\partial z}\\yz&4xz&e^{xy}\end{array}\right|

Working with the determinant we get

curl \vec F = \left( \cfrac{\partial}{\partial y}e^{xy}-\cfrac{\partial}{\partial z}4xz\right) \hat i -\left(\cfrac{\partial}{\partial x}e^{xy}-\cfrac{\partial}{\partial z}yz \right) \hat j + \left(\cfrac{\partial}{\partial x} 4xz-\cfrac{\partial}{\partial y}yz \right) \hat k

Working with the partial derivatives

curl \vec F = \left(xe^{xy}-4x\right) \hat i -\left(ye^{xy}-y\right) \hat j + \left(4z-z\right) \hat k\\curl \vec F = \left(xe^{xy}-4x\right) \hat i -\left(ye^{xy}-y\right) \hat j + \left(3z\right) \hat k

Integrating using Stokes' Theorem

Now that we have the curl we can proceed integrating

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S curl \vec F \cdot d\vec S

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S curl \vec F \cdot \hat n dS

where the normal to the circle is just \hat n= \hat k since the normal is perpendicular to it, so we get

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S \left(\left(xe^{xy}-4x\right) \hat i -\left(ye^{xy}-y\right) \hat j + \left(3z\right) \hat k\right) \cdot \hat k dS

Only the z-component will not be 0 after that dot product we get

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S 3z dS

Since the circle is at z = 3 we can just write

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = \int \int_S 3(3) dS\\\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = 9\int \int_S dS

Thus the integral represents the area of a circle, the given circle x^2+y^2 = 9 has a radius r = 3, so its area is A = \pi r^2 = 9\pi, so we get

\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = 9(9\pi)\\\displaystyle \int\limits_C \vec F \cdot d\vec r = 81 \pi

Thus the result of the integral is 81π
