If 445 to base n is equal to 173,find the value of n​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Troyanec [42]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

6

(4×n²) + (4×n¹) + (5×n^0) = 173

4n² + 4n + 5 = 173

4n² + 4n = 168

divide through by 4

n² + n - 42 = 0

n² + 7n - 6n - 42= 0

(n + 7)(n - 6) = 0

n = -7 or 6

but the solution is 6 since base is not negative.

Answer:

the answer is 1.5 because converting them into their fractional form indeed informs u that 1.5 is thus greater than 2.25 BT lesser than 1

Kesha threw her baton up in the air from the marching band platform during practice. The equation h(t) = −16t² + 54t + 40 gives
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

a) 40 feet

b) 54 ft/min

c) 4 mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- Kesha models the height ( h ) of the baton from the ground level but thrown from a platform of height hi.

- The function h ( t ) is modeled to follow a quadratic - parabolic path mathematically expressed as:

                           h ( t ) = −16t² + 54t + 40

Which gives the height of the baton from ground at time t mins.

- The initial point is of the height of the platform which is at a height of ( hi ) from the ground level.

- So the initial condition is expressed by time = 0 mins, the height of the baton h ( t ) would be:

                         h ( 0 ) = hi = -16*(0)^2 + 54*0 + 40

                         h ( 0 ) = hi = 0 + 0 + 40 = 40 feet

Answer: The height of the platform hi is 40 feet.

- The speed ( v ) during the parabolic path of the baton also varies with time t.

- The function of speed ( v ) with respect to time ( t ) can be determined by taking the derivative of displacement of baton from ground with respect to time t mins.

                        v ( t ) = dh / dt

                        v ( t )= d ( −16t² + 54t + 40 ) / dt

                        v ( t )= -2*(16)*t + 54

                        v ( t )= -32t + 54

- The velocity with which Kesha threw the baton is represented by tim t = 0 mins.

Hence,

                        v ( 0 ) = vi = -32*( 0 ) + 54

                        v ( 0 ) = vi = 54 ft / min

Answer: Kesha threw te baton with an initial speed of vo = 54 ft/min

- The baton reaches is maximum height h_max and comes down when all the kinetic energy is converted to potential energy. The baton starts to come down and cross the platform height hi = 40 feet and hits the ground.

- The height of the ball at ground is zero. Hence,

                     h ( t ) = 0

                     0 = −16t² + 54t + 40

                     0 = -8t^2 + 27t + 20

- Use the quadratic formula to solve the quadratic equation:

                     

                    t = \frac{27+/-\sqrt{27^2 - 4*8*(-20)} }{2*8}\\\\t = \frac{27+/-\sqrt{1369} }{16}\\\\t = \frac{27+/-37 }{16}\\\\t =  \frac{27 + 37}{16} \\\\t = 4

Answer: The time taken for the baton to hit the ground is t = 4 mins

Keira , larry and gita picked apples at an orchard. keira picked twice as many pounds as larry and 3 times as many as gita. the
Natalija [7]
Number of apples in pounds picked up by Keira = K
Number of apples in pounds picked up by Larry = L
Number of apples in pounds picked up by Gita = G
Total number of apples they picked all together in pounds = 8360
Now from the given question, we know
Number of apples picked up by Kiera = 2L
So
K = 2L
L = K/2
Again Kiera picked up 3 times as many apples as Gita picked.
So,
K = 3G
G = K/3
Now if we add all the apples in pounds picked up by the three of them.
Then
K + L + G = 8360
K + (K/2) + K/3) = 8360
(6K + 3K + 2K)/6 = 8360
11K/6 = 8360
11K = 8360 * 6
11K = 50160
K = 4560
Then
L = K/2
   = 4560/2
   = 2280
G = K/3
   = 4560/3
   = 1520
Now we can say that
Kiera picked 4560 pounds of apple
Larry picked 2280 pounds of apple
Gita picked 1520 pounds of apple
