Carl is boarding a plane. He has 2 checked bags of equal weight and a backpack that weighs 4 kg. The total weight of Carl's bagg

age is 35kg
Write an equation to determine the weight, w, of each of Carl's checked bags.
And the weight of each of Carl's check bags

Answer:

(35 - 4)/2 = w and 15.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the weight of both bags you would have to first subtract the backpack's weight from the total weight. 35 - 4 = 31. Now divide by 2 to get the weight of one bag. 31/2 = 15.5. Each bag weighs 15.5 kg

Find the function y1 of t which is the solution of 121y′′+110y′−24y=0 with initial conditions y1(0)=1,y′1(0)=0. y1= Note: y1 is

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation is $121y''+110y'-24y=0$ . We propose that the solution of this equations is of the form $y = Ae^{rt}$ . Then, by replacing the derivatives we get the following

$121r^2Ae^{rt}+110rAe^{rt}-24Ae^{rt}=0= Ae^{rt}(121r^2+110r-24)$

Since we want a non trival solution, it must happen that A is different from zero. Also, the exponential function is always positive, then it must happen that

$121r^2+110r-24=0$

Recall that the roots of a polynomial of the form $ax^2+bx+c$ are given by the formula

$x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In our case a = 121, b = 110 and c = -24. Using the formula we get the solutions

$r_1 = -\frac{12}{11}$

$r_2 = \frac{2}{11}$

So, in this case, the general solution is $y = c_1 e^{\frac{-12t}{11}} + c_2 e^{\frac{2t}{11}}$

a) In the first case, we are given that y(0) = 1 and y'(0) = 0. By differentiating the general solution and replacing t by 0 we get the equations

$c_1 + c_2 = 1$

$c_1\frac{-12}{11} + c_2\frac{2}{11} = 0$ (or equivalently $c_2 = 6c_1$

By replacing the second equation in the first one, we get $7c_1 = 1$ which implies that $c_1 = \frac{1}{7}, c_2 = \frac{6}{7}$ .

So $y_1 = \frac{1}{7}e^{\frac{-12t}{11}} + \frac{6}{7}e^{\frac{2t}{11}}$

b) By using y(0) =0 and y'(0)=1 we get the equations

$c_1+c_2 =0$

$c_1\frac{-12}{11} + c_2\frac{2}{11} = 1$ (or equivalently $-12c_1+2c_2 = 11$

By solving this system, the solution is $c_1 = \frac{-11}{14}, c_2 = \frac{11}{14}$

Then $y_2 = \frac{-11}{14}e^{\frac{-12t}{11}} + \frac{11}{14} e^{\frac{2t}{11}}$

c)

The Wronskian of the solutions is calculated as the determinant of the following matrix

$\left| \begin{matrix}y_1 & y_2 \\ y_1' & y_2'\end{matrix}\right|= W(t) = y_1\cdot y_2'-y_1'y_2$

By plugging the values of $y_1$ and

We can check this by using Abel's theorem. Given a second degree differential equation of the form y''+p(x)y'+q(x)y the wronskian is given by

$e^{\int -p(x) dx}$

In this case, by dividing the equation by 121 we get that p(x) = 10/11. So the wronskian is

$e^{\int -\frac{10}{11} dx} = e^{\frac{-10x}{11}}$

Note that this function is always positive, and thus, never zero. So $y_1, y_2$ is a fundamental set of solutions.

2 1/2+x=5 1/3 PLEASE HELP

erastova [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/2 + x = 5 1/3 Change the mixed numbers to improper fractions

5/2 + x = 16/3 The lowest common multiple is 6. Multiply by 6

5*3 + 6x = 16*2

15 + 6x = 32 Subtract 15 from both sides.

6x = 32 - 15

6x = 17 Divide by 6

6x/6 = 17/6

x = 2 5/6

Check

5/2 + 17/6 = 16/3

15/6 + 17/6 = 32/6

32/6 = 32/6 The question checks.
