Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 20x and 10x

Then by the question,

20x + 10x = 300

or, 30x = 300

or, x = 300/ 30

x = 10

Now the larger number

20x = 20* 10 = 200.

Hope it will help you :)

Find the work done by force dield f(x,y)=x^2i+ye^xj on a particle that moves along parabola x=y^2+1 from(1,0) to (2,1)

NemiM [27]

Call the parabola $P$ , parameterized by $\mathbf r(y)=\langle y^2+1,y\rangle$ with $0\le y\le 1\rangle$ . Then the work done by $\mathbf f(x,y)$ along $P$ is

$\displaystyle\int_P\mathbf f(x,y)\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf r=\int_{y=0}^{y=1}\mathbf f(x(y),y)\cdot\dfrac{\mathrm d\mathbf r(y)}{\mathrm dy}\,\mathrm dy$
$=\displaystyle\int_0^1\langle(y^2+1)^2,ye^{y^2+1}\rangle\cdot\langle2y,1\rangle\,\mathrm dy$
$=\displaystyle\int_0^1(2y^5+4y^3+2y+ye^{y^2+1})\,\mathrm dy=\frac73-\frac e2+\frac{e^2}2$

Which of the following sets of transformation provides sufficient information to prove the two circles described are similar?

Reika [66]

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

A circle is simply a curve made up of all the points that are the same distance from the center. This distance is called the radius of the circle. It's important to know that <em>all circles are similar to each other</em>, but what is similarity? It's simply, shapes are similar if we can turn one into the other by moving, rotating, flipping, or scaling. So every circle can match any other circle by moving it, rotating it, flipping it, or scaling it.

Then circles O and Q shown below are similar no matter what's the radii of them.

A person trying to gain access to a bank vault must pass through a series of three security doors. If an attempt to pass through

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

C) S = {F, PF, PPF, PPP}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case, we know that a person is trying to gain access to a bank vault and needs to go through 3 security doors, and we know that if the person does not pass a door, then he/she has no other attempts. We denote P= Successful pass , F= Failed pass

And we are interested on the sample space, we need to remember that the sample is the set with all the possible values for an experiment.

For this case the person can fail at the 1,2 or 3 try

For the case that fails at the 1 try we have F

For the case that fails at the 2 try we have PF

For the case that fails at the 3 try we have PPF

And the last option is that the person not fails at any try and we have PPP

So then the sample space would be given by:

C) S = {F, PF, PPF, PPP}
