Last year the population of Spoon Forks grew from 1250 to 1300. If the population of the town grows by the same percent this yea

Reptile [31]

Answer:

1352

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we get the percentage growth last year. This is calculated as:

(1300-1250)/1250 * 100

= 4%

Now, we are assuming the growth rate is constant. So let’s calculate a 4% growth rate for this year. That would be:

4/100 * 1,300 = 52

The population this year would thus be 1300 + 52 = 1352

Factor completely x^4-17x^2+16

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

actor the following:

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:

(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16

The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)

x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):

(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)

x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:

(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):

Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Sin^2(x/2)=sin^2x <br> Find the value of x

Veronika [31]

$\sin^2\dfrac x2=\sin^2x$
$\dfrac{1-\cos x}2=1-\cos^2x$
$1-\cos x=2-2\cos^2x$
$2\cos^2x-\cos x-1=0$
$(2\cos x+1)(\cos x-1)=0$
$\implies\begin{cases}2\cos x+1=0\\\cos x-1=0\end{cases}$ $\implies\begin{cases}\cos x=-\frac12\\\cos x=1\end{cases}$

The first case occurs in $0\le x$ for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3$ and $x=\dfrac{4\pi}3$ . Extending the domain to account for all real $x$ , we have this happening for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3+2n\pi$ and $\dfrac{4\pi}3+2n\pi$ , where $n\in\mathbb Z$ .

The second case occurs in $0\le x$ when $x=0$ , and extending to all reals we have $x=2n\pi$ for $n\in\mathbb Z$ , i.e. any even multiple of $\pi$ .

A 2 by 3 rectangle contains 8 squares. A 3 by 4 rectangle contains 20 squares. A 4 by 6 rectangle contains 50 squares. What size

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The rectangles that have exactly 100 squares are 1 by 100 4 by 11 and 5 by 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

A 2 by 3 rectangle contains 8 squares

A 3 by 4 rectangle contains 20 squares

A 4 by 6 rectangle contains 50 squares

We note that the number of squares varies proportionately to the increase in the dimension of the rectangle, that is we have;

2 by 3 rectangle contains 8 squares

3 by 4 rectangle contains 20 squares increase by 12 = 3 × 4

4 by 5 rectangle contains 40 squares increase by 20 = 4 × 5

The number of squares formed can therefore be arranged in a matrix as follows(please see attached matrix);

Column, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

Row

1

2

3

4

5

6

7

8

9

10

11

It will be observed that after reaching a point where the row and column are equal, (x, x) the rate of increase in the number of squares become constant and equal to x × ((x - 1) × 0.5) + 1) = x × (x + 1)/2

From the matrix, the rectangles that have exactly 100 squares are 1 by 100 4 by 11 and 5 by 8 and there are no more as presented in the attached matrix, the number of squares formed keeps increasing for each column and row added.
