Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Calling it blocks is a little weird. but a good way to do it is to move left or right until you are over or below where you want to go then move up or down accordingly.  Each move, left, right up or down will count as one block.

So from the fire station you go 1 to the right and then 6 down, for a total of 7.  then from the library  it's 3 right then 4 up, which is 7 again.  7 to the first stop then 7 to the second makes 14 total.  

If there's something you don't get let me know.

Suppose that the functions q and r are defined as follows.
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

(r o g)(2) = 4

(q o r)(2) = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

g(x) = x^2 + 5

r(x) = \sqrt{x + 7}

Solving (a): (r o q)(2)

In function:

(r o g)(x) = r(g(x))

So, first we calculate g(2)

g(x) = x^2 + 5

g(2) = 2^2 + 5

g(2) = 4 + 5

g(2) = 9

Next, we calculate r(g(2))

Substitute 9 for g(2)in r(g(2))

r(q(2)) = r(9)

This gives:

r(x) = \sqrt{x + 7}

r(9) = \sqrt{9 +7{

r(9) = \sqrt{16}{

r(9) = 4

Hence:

(r o g)(2) = 4

Solving (b): (q o r)(2)

So, first we calculate r(2)

r(x) = \sqrt{x + 7}

r(2) = \sqrt{2 + 7}

r(2) = \sqrt{9}

r(2) = 3

Next, we calculate g(r(2))

Substitute 3 for r(2)in g(r(2))

g(r(2)) = g(3)

g(x) = x^2 + 5

g(3) = 3^2 + 5

g(3) = 9 + 5

g(3) = 14

Hence:

(q o r)(2) = 14

A student gets 68 marks n therefore gets 85 percent total marks are?
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

There are 80 marks in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of total marks be x.

The percentage score of the student can be written as the ratio

\displaystyle \frac{68}{x} = 85\%.

However,

\displaystyle 85\% = \frac{85}{100}.

Equating the two:

\displaystyle \frac{68}{x} = \frac{85}{100}.

Cross-multiply (that is: multiple both sides by 100x, the product of the two denominators) to get

85x = 68\times 100.

\displaystyle x = \frac{68\times 100}{85} = 80.

In other words, there are 80 marks in total.

You have 42,784 grams of a radioactive kind of curium. If its half-life is 18 years, how much will be left after 72 years?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

2,674.14 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the formula for radioactive decay is

N = N₀ e^(-λt)

where,

N is the amount left at time t

N₀ is the initial amount when t=0, (given as 42,784 g)

λ = coefficient of radioactive decay

  = 0.693 ÷ Half Life

  = 0.693 ÷ 18

  = 0.0385

t = time elapsed (given as 72 years)

e = exponential constant ( approx 2.7183)

If we substitute these into our equation:

N = N₀ e^(-λt)

= (42,787) (2.7183)^[(-0.0385)(72)]

= (42,787) (2.7183)^(-2.7726)

=  (42,787) (0.0625)

= 2,674.14 g

Find the sum (the total measure) of the interior angles of an Octagon. Show all of your work
tatiyna
One way to do this is use the fact that the exterior angles of all polygons add up to 360 degrees
So an exterior angle of a regular octagon  = 360 / 8 = 45 degrees.
So each interior angle = 180 - 45 = 135 degrees

so total measure of all angles in octagon = 8 * 135 =  1080 degrees
