Answer:

y = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly as z and inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = \frac{kz}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = - 18, z = 3 when x = 6 , then

- 18 = \frac{3k}{6} ( multiply both sides by 6 )

- 108 = 3k ( divide both sides by 3 )

- 36 = k

y = \frac{-36z}{x} ← equation of variation

When x = 5 and z = - 5, then

y = \frac{-36(-5)}{5} = \frac{180}{5} = 36

The cost of parking in a garage, in dollars, can be modeled by a step function whose graph is shown. How much does it cost to pa
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

the cost is \$6

Step-by-step explanation:

observing the graph

we know that

For the interval of x------> (0,1] -----> the cost is \$0

For the interval of x------> (1,3] -----> the cost is \$4

For the interval of x------> (3,4] -----> the cost is \$6

For the interval of x------> (4,infinite) -----> the cost is \$10

In this problem we have

3 hours and 45 minutes

therefore

the value of x belong to the interval (3,4]

the cost is \$6

Let P and Q be polynomials with positive coefficients. Consider the limit below. lim x→[infinity] P(x) Q(x) (a) Find the limit i
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

If the limit that you want to find is \lim_{x\to \infty}\dfrac{P(x)}{Q(x)} then you can use the following proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(x)=a_{n}x^{n}+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_{1}x+a_{0} and Q(x)=b_{m}x^{m}+b_{m-1}x^{n-1}+\cdots+b_{1}x+b_{0} be the given polinomials. Then

\dfrac{P(x)}{Q(x)}=\dfrac{x^{n}(a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)}+a_{0}x^{-n})}{x^{m}(b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m})}=x^{n-m}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)})+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}

Observe that

\lim_{x\to \infty}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)})+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}=\dfrac{a_{n}}{b_{m}}

and

\lim_{x\to \infty} x^{n-m}=\begin{cases}0& \text{if}\,\, nm\end{cases}

Then

\lim_{x\to \infty}=\lim_{x\to \infty}x^{n-m}\dfrac{a_{n}+a_{n-1}x^{-1}+a_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots +a_{2}x^{-(n-2)}+a_{1}x^{-(n-1)}+a_{0}x^{-n}}{b_{m}+b_{m-1}x^{-1}+b_{n-2}x^{-2}+\cdots+b_{2}x^{-(m-2)}+b_{1}x^{-(m-1)}+b_{0}x^{-m}}=\begin{cases}0 & \text{if}\,\, nm \end{cases}

Let (-5,-4) be a point on the terminal side of (theta). Find the exact values of cos, csc, and tan.
Rasek [7]

The exact values of the trigonometric identities cos, csc and tan as required in the task content are; -√41/5, -√41/4 and 4/5 respectively.

<h3>What are the exact values of cos, csc and tan as required in the task content?</h3>

It follows from above that the terminal side of the angle theta as described is on the point with coordinates (-5, -4).

Hence, the points spans 5 units leftwards and r units downwards on x and y axis respectively.

Hence, the length of the line that describes the angle by Pythagoras theorem is;

h = √((-4)² + (-5)²)

h = √41.

Hence, it follows from trigonometric identities that;

Cos (theta) = -5/√41.

Csc (theta) = -√41/4

Tan (theta) = 4/5

Alex buys a top of the line computer. He did not realize that the computer would lose value so fast. If his computer cost $1800.
Natali [406]

This can be solve by using the formula

D = P( 1 – i)^n

Where d is the depreciation value after n years

P is the initial value

i is the depreciation rate

n is the years

D = 1/3 ( 1800)

D = 600

So

600 = 1800 ( 1- 0.45)^n

Solve for n

The diagram shows the ages and the secondhand prices of 10 cars
EleoNora [17]

From the graph, the coordinates of the cross that represent this car on the graph are ( 8, 2100).

<h3>What is the correlation coefficient?</h3>

The correlation coefficient is a measure of how similar two datasets are acting.

When the correlation coefficient comes out as -1, it means that both the datasets are negatively oppositely correlated.

One data increases and other data starts to decrease in the opposite direction.

When the correlation coefficient comes out below 0, values are negatively correlated.

The correlation shown by the graph is negative.

From the graph, the coordinates of the cross that represent this car on the graph are ( 8, 2100).
