Answer:

x = 50

y = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{bmatrix}x+y=100\\ 0.12x+0.38y=25\end{bmatrix}

.12(100-y) + .38y = 25

x = 50

y = 50

4. The cube root parent function is vertically stretched by a factor of 3, reflected in the x-axis,
Mademuasel [1]

Using translation concepts, it is found that the equation that represents the new function is:

  • y = -3\sqrt[3]{x} - 8

The cube root parent function is given by:

y = \sqrt[3]{x}

<h3>Translation:</h3>

The function goes through these following translations:

  • Vertically stretched by a factor of 3, that is, it is multiplied by 3, hence y = 3\sqrt[3]{x}.
  • Reflected over the x-axis, that is, it is multiplied by -1, hence y = -3\sqrt[3]{x}.
  • Translated 8 units down, that is, 8 is subtracted from the function, hence y = -3\sqrt[3]{x} - 8.

Then, the equation is:

  • y = -3\sqrt[3]{x} - 8

A moving sidewalk in an airport moves people between gates. It takes Jason's 8-year-old
likoan [24]

Answer:

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed

It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk

Distance = speed × time

176 = (x+y)×44

44x+44y = 176

x+y = 4 .......1

It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).

21 = (y-x)7

7y - 7x = 21

y - x = 3 ......2

Add equation 1 to 2

2y = 7

y = 3.5 ft/sec

From equation 1

x + y = 4

x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5

x = 0.5 ft/sec

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Assume that the flask shown in the diagram can be modeled as a combination of a sphere and a cylinder. Based on this assumption,
kompoz [17]

If the flask shown in the diagram can be modeled as a combination of a sphere and a cylinder, then its volume is

V_{flask}=V_{sphere}+V_{cylinder}.

Use following formulas to determine volumes of sphere and cylinder:

V_{sphere}=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3,\\ \\V_{cylinder}=\pi r^2h,

wher R is sphere's radius, r - radius of cylinder's base and h - height of cylinder.

Then

  • V_{sphere}=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \left(\dfrac{4.5}{2}\right)^3=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi \left(\dfrac{9}{4}\right)^3=\dfrac{243\pi}{16}\approx 47.71;
  • V_{cylinder}=\pi r^2h=\pi \cdot \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^2\cdot 3=\dfrac{3\pi}{4}\approx 2.36;
  • V_{flask}=V_{sphere}+V_{cylinder}\approx 47.71+2.36=50.07.

Answer 1: correct choice is C.

If both the sphere and the cylinder are dilated by a scale factor of 2, then all dimensions of the sphere and the cylinder are dilated by a scale factor of 2. So

R'=2R, r'=2r, h'=2h.

Write the new fask volume:

V_{\text{new flask}}=V_{\text{new sphere}}+V_{\text{new cylinder}}=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R'^3+\pi r'^2h'=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi (2R)^3+\pi (2r)^2\cdot 2h=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi 8R^3+\pi \cdot 4r^2\cdot 2h=8\left(\dfrac{4}{3}\pi R^3+\pi r^2h\right)=8V_{flask}.

Then

\dfrac{V_{\text{new flask}}}{V_{\text{flask}}} =\dfrac{8}{1}=8.

Answer 2: correct choice is D.
