What is the solution to the equation 3 over 1⁄2 plus P. equals 5 over 1⁄4

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Sarah bought 7 coach tickets and 4 first class tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information provided, you can write the following equations:

x+y=11 (1)

240x+1100y=6080 (2), where:

x is the number of coach tickets

y is the number of first class tickets

In order to find the value of x and y, first you have to solve for x in (1):

x=11-y (3)

Now, you have to replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

240(11-y)+1100y=6080

2640-240y+1100y=6080

860y=6080-2640

860y=3440

y=3440/860

y=4

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (3) to find the value of x:

x=11-y

x=11-4

x=7

According to this, the answer is that Sarah bought 7 coach tickets and 4 first class tickets.

A polynomial function upper P left parenthesis x right parenthesis with rational coefficients has the given roots. Find two addi

mylen [45]

Given that a polynomial function P(x) has rational coefficients.

Two roots are already given which are i and 7+8i,

Now we have to find two additional roots of P(x)=0

Given roots i and 7+8i are complex roots and we know that complex roots always occur in conjugate pairs so that means conjugate of given roots will also be the roots.

conjugate of a+bi is given by a-bi

So using that logic, conjugate of i is i

also conjugate of 7+8i is 7-8i

Hence final answer for the remaining roots are (-i) and (7-8i).

A rectangular box which is open at the top can be made from an12-by-18-inch piece of metal by cutting a square from each corner

algol [13]

Answer:

h=2.35in, l=13.3in and w=7.3in

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must start by drawing a diagram that will represent the prolem. (Look at attached picture)

From the diagram we can see that the length ad the width of the box are found by using the following expressions:

L=18-2x

W= 12-2x

H=x

next, we can make use of the volume formula of a rectangular prism, which is the following:

V=WLH

so we can substitute the expressions we got before on the formula:

V=x(12-2x)(18-2x)

and for ease of calculation, we can multiply the terms, so we get:

$V=x(216-24x-36x+4x^{2})$

$V=x(4x^{2}-60x+216)$

$V=4x^{3}-60x^{2}+216x$

So now we can find the derivative of the volume:

$V'=12x^{2}-120x+216$

and set it equal to zero, so we get:

$12x^{2}-120x+216=0$

and now we can solve. We can start by factoring the left side of the equation, so we get:

$12(x^{2}-10x+18)=0$

which yields:

x^{2}-10x+18=0

This one can only be solved by using the quadratic formula:

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

so we substitute the corresponding values:

$x=\frac{-(-10)\pm \sqrt{-(-10)^{2}-4(1)(18)}}{2(1)}$

which yields:

x=7.65in or x=2.35in

we keep the 2.35in only, because the 7.65in returns an impossible box, since that would make the width a negative width.

So the 2.35in height would give us the greatest box. Now we can use it to find the height, the width and the length of the box.

Height=x=2.35

W=12-2x=12-2*2.35=7.3in

L=18-2x=18-2(2.35)=13.3in
