Answer:

1 1/2 feet of snow= 18 inches

17/18 is around .94 so there’s .06 that the weatherman was off on.

.06 = 6%

Can someone explain to me this derivative : y=3x√x
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

(9/2)√x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the radical to an exponent.

x√x = x^1 * x^1/2

= x^(1 + 1/2)

= x^3/2

So the derivative of 3x^3/2 is found as follows:

y' = 3 * 3/2x^(3/2 - 1)

= (9/2)x^1/2

= (9/2)√x.

3.) mr. smith’s class sold wrapping paper for $3.50 each and mr. davis’ class sold magazines for $2.75 each. together, the class
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of wrapping paper sold

y ----> the number of magazines sold

we know that

The classes sold 72 items

so

x+y=72 ----> equation A

The classes earned $222 for their school

so

3.50x+2.75y=222 ----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is (32,40)

see the attached figure

therefore

The number of wrapping paper sold was 32 and the number of magazines sold was 40

A bowl is in the shape of a hemisphere (half a sphere) with a diameter of 8 inches. Find the volume of the bowl. Use 3.14 for pi
gayaneshka [121]

Answer: 267.947 (or 267.95) inches^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a sphere is \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}.

To find your radius (r), divide the diameter of 8 inches by 2. <em>The radius is 4 inches.</em>

Plug in your numbers to the volume equation to get \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(4^3). The first step is to cube 4 (4*4*4) to get <em>64</em>. Now your equation is \frac{4}{3}(3.14)(64).

Multiply 3.14 and 64 to get <em>200.96</em>. The equation is now \frac{4}{3}(200.96) or \frac{4}{3} * \frac{200.96}{1}.

Multiply the numerators (4 * 200.96) and denominators (1 * 3) to get a final equation of \frac{803.84}{3}.

Finally, divide 803.84 by 3 to get the final answer of 267.947 in^3.

Which equation is satisfied by all of the plotted points?
Black_prince [1.1K]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The equation that would satisfy all of the points plotted above would be y=-2x. From the plot, we can see that the y-intercept is equal to zero and by using two points we can calculate the slope to be equal to -2. Giving an equation which is y=-2x.
