80 people attended a meeting. There was x men and x women and the rest were children. How many children attended the meeting

Mathematics

sesenic [268]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>80 - 2x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total number of people = 80 people

Total men = x men

Total women = x women

Let the number of childeren be c

x + x + c = 80

Make c the subject of the formula

c = 80 - (x+x)

c = 80 - 2x

<em>Hence the total children attending is 80 - 2x</em>

a walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-2x-7. A new path will be built perpendicular to this path.The pat
jonny [76]

Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-2x-7

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-2

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-2 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/2

step 3

With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y+3=(1/2)(x+2)

y=(1/2)x+1-3

y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path

Solve y" + y = tet, y(0) = 0, y'(0) = 0 using Laplace transforms.
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The solution of the diferential equation is:

y(t)=\frac{1}{2}cos(t)- \frac{1}{2}e^{t}+\frac{t}{2} e^{t}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y" + y = te^{t}; y(0) = 0 ; y'(0) = 0

We need to use the Laplace transform to solve it.

ℒ[y" + y]=ℒ[te^{t}]

ℒ[y"]+ℒ[y]=ℒ[te^{t}]

By using the Table of Laplace Transform we get:

ℒ[y"]=s²·ℒ[y]+s·y(0)-y'(0)=s²·Y(s)

ℒ[y]=Y(s)

ℒ[te^{t}]=\frac{1}{(s-1)^{2}}

So, the transformation is equal to:

s²·Y(s)+Y(s)=\frac{1}{(s-1)^{2}}

(s²+1)·Y(s)=\frac{1}{(s-1)^{2}}

Y(s)=\frac{1}{(s^{2}+1)(s-1)^{2}}

To be able to separate in terms, we use the partial fraction method:

\frac{1}{(s^{2}+1)(s-1)^{2}}=\frac{As+B}{s^{2}+1} +\frac{C}{s-1}+\frac{D}{(s-1)^2}

1=(As+B)(s-1)² + C(s-1)(s²+1)+ D(s²+1)

The equation is reduced to:

1=s³(A+C)+s²(B-2A-C+D)+s(A-2B+C)+(B+D-C)

With the previous equation we can make an equation system of 4 variables.

The system is given by:

A+C=0

B-2A-C+D=0

A-2B+C=0

B+D-C=1

The solution of the system is:

A=1/2 ; B=0 ; C=-1/2 ; D=1/2

Therefore, Y(s) is equal to:

Y(s)=\frac{s}{2(s^{2} +1)} -\frac{1}{2(s-1)} +\frac{1}{2(s-1)^{2}}

By using the inverse of the Laplace transform:

ℒ⁻¹[Y(s)]=ℒ⁻¹[\frac{s}{2(s^{2} +1)}]-ℒ⁻¹[\frac{1}{2(s-1)}]+ℒ⁻¹[\frac{1}{2(s-1)^{2}}]

y(t)=\frac{1}{2}cos(t)- \frac{1}{2}e^{t}+\frac{t}{2} e^{t}
