If t varies inversely as a and t= 2 when a = -4, what is t when a = 1/3?

Mathematics

Answer:

t = - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Given t varies inversely as a then the equation relating them is

t = \frac{k}{a} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition t = 2 when a = - 4

2 = \frac{k}{-4} ( multiply both sides by - 4 )

- 8 = k

t = \frac{-8}{a} ← equation of variation

When a = \frac{1}{3} , then

t = \frac{-8}{\frac{1}{3} } = - 24

In 2012 your car was worth $10,000. In 2014 your car was worth $8,800. Suppose the value of your car decreased at a constant rat
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

g(t) = 10000(0.938)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

car worth is $10,000 in 2012

car worth is $8000 in 2014

let linear function is given as

P(t) = at + b

which denote the value of car in year t

take t =0 for year 2012

at t =0, 10,000 = 0 + b

we get b = 10,000

take t =2 for year 2014

at t =2, P(2) = 2a + b

8800 = 2a + 10,000

a = - 600

Thus the price of car at year t after 2012 is given as p(t) = -600t + 10000

let the exponential function p(t)  =ab^2 where t denote t = 0 at 2012

putting t = 0 P(0) = 10,000 we get 10,000 = ab^0

a = 10,000

putting t = 2 p = 8800

8800 =ab^2

b^2 = \frac{8800}{10000}

b = 0.938

g(t) = 10000(0.938)^t

Tadeo Volunteered at the library six times as many hours over the weekend as Dylan. Together they volunteer at a total of 14 hou
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

<em>Tadeo Volunteered for 12 hours while Dylan volunteered for 2 hours</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of hours Tadeo volunteered be x

Let the total number of hours Dylan volunteered be y

If together they volunteer at a total of 14 hours, then;

x + y = 14 ...... 1

If<em> </em>Tadeo Volunteered at the library six times as many hours over the weekend as Dylan, then;

x = 6y

Substitute x = 6y into 1;

6y + y = 14

7y = 14

y = 14/7

y = 2

Since x = 6y

x = 6(2)

x = 12

<em>Hence Tadeo Volunteered for 12 hours while Dylan volunteered for 2 hours</em>

Dividing and Multiplying functions
Likurg_2 [28]
Ok, so first of all, you need to plug the functions into their places. Since f(x) = 6x and g(x) = x + 3, you'll plug them in accordingly:
(6x) * (x + 3).

Then you'll multiply them together to get 6x^2 + 18x. You can't combine like terms then because of the square in the first term.

So your final answer is 6x^2 + 18x.

I hope this helps you at least a little bit. Thanks for your time!

The correlation coefficient (r) is a number that describes how closely the numbers in the data set are related. The correlation coefficient will always be between −1.0 and +1.0. If the correlation is positive, there is a positive relationship. If it is negative, the relationship is negative. If the two are not correlated at all, the correlation coefficient will be 0. Strong and weak correlations are a little more subjective in that there is no exact cutoff between strong and weak, but generally, any r value that is close to either 1 or negative 1 is considered strong. Any value of r that is closer to 0 is considered weak.
