Find the number of positive integers n is less than or equal to 1000 such that 15n is a perfect square.

boyakko [2]

Answer:

8 positive integers.

Step-by-step explanation:

One value of n would be 15 because 225 = 15^2.

Other values are 225 * n where 15n <= 1000 and n is a perfect square.

So n = 4 gives us 225* 4 = 900 which is a perfect square and 15*4 = 60.

n = 9 gives us 225 * 9 which is a perfect square and 15*9 = 135.

n = 16 gives us 225*16 and 15*16 = 240 , so OK.

n = 25 gives a perfect square and and 15*25 = 375 - so OK.

n = 36 gives a perfect square and 15*36 = 540 - so OK.

n = 49 gives a perfect square and 15*49 = 735 - so OK.

n = 64 gives a perfect square and 15*64 = 960 - so ok.

n = 81 gives a perfect square and 15 * 81 = 1215 so NOT ok.

Write an equation of the line that passes through a pair of points (-5, -2), (4, 5)

PIT_PIT [208]

To find the equation of a line knowing two points it passes through, we must first find the slope and then substitute the x and y values to figure out the y intercept.

First thing is to find the slope using the formula m = Δy ÷ Δx
m = 5 - (-2) ÷ 4 - (-5)

Now we simplify
m = 7 ÷ 9

Our equation so far is y = 7/9x + b. Now we can substitute the values of x and y from a point to figure out the answer. The equation here uses the point (4,5)

5 = 7/9 · 4 + b

Get b on one side
5 - 28/9 = b

Simplify
b = 1 + 8/9

That makes the equation of the line y = 7/9x + (1 + 8/9)

You have D dollars to buy fence to enclose a rectangular plot of land (see figure at right). The fence for the top and bottom co

alex41 [277]

The perimeter of the rectangular plot of land is given by the expression below

$P=2x+2y$

On the other hand, since the available money to buy fence is D dollars,

$\begin{gathered} D=4(2x)+3(2y) \\ \Rightarrow D=8x+6y \\ D\rightarrow\text{ constant} \end{gathered}$

Furthermore, the area of the enclosed land is given by

$A=xy$

Solving the second equation for x,

$\begin{gathered} D=8x+6y \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6y}{8} \end{gathered}$

Substituting into the equation for the area,

$\begin{gathered} A=(\frac{D-6y}{8})y \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{D}{8}y-\frac{3}{4}y^2 \end{gathered}$

To find the maximum possible area, solve A'(y)=0, as shown below

$\begin{gathered} A^{\prime}(y)=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{D}{8}-\frac{3}{2}y=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{3}{2}y=\frac{D}{8} \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{D}{12} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the corresponding value of x is

$\begin{gathered} y=\frac{D}{12} \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6(\frac{D}{12})}{8}=\frac{D-\frac{D}{2}}{8}=\frac{D}{16} \end{gathered}$ <h2>Thus, the dimensions of the fence that maximize the area are x=D/16 and y=D/12.</h2><h2>As for the used money,</h2> $\begin{gathered} top,bottom:\frac{8D}{16}=\frac{D}{2} \\ Sides:\frac{6D}{12}=\frac{D}{2} \end{gathered}$ <h2>Half the money was used for the top and the bottom, while the other half was used for the sides.</h2>

A car is being driven at a rate of 40 ft/sec when the brakes are applied. The car decelerates at a constant rate of 10 ft/sec2.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

80 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of the car ( $v_0$ ) = 40 ft/sec

Deceleration of the car ( $\frac{dv}{dt}$ ) = -10 ft/sec²

Final speed of the car ( $v_x$ ) = 0 ft/sec

Let the distance traveled by the car be 'x' at any time 't'. Let 'v' be the velocity at any time 't'.

Now, deceleration means rate of decrease of velocity.

So, $\frac{dv}{dt}=-10\ ft/sec^2$

Negative sign means the velocity is decreasing with time.

Now, $\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{dv}{dx}(\frac{dx}{dt})$ using chain rule of differentiation. Therefore,

$\frac{dv}{dx}\cdot\frac{dx}{dt}= -10\\\\But\ \frac{dx}{dt}=v.\ So,\\\\v\frac{dv}{dx}=-10\\\\vdv=-10dx$

Integrating both sides under the limit 40 to 0 for 'v' and 0 to 'x' for 'x'. This gives,

$\int\limits^0_{40} {v} \, dv=\int\limits^x_0 {-10} \, dx\\\\\left [ \frac{v^2}{2} \right ]_{40}^{0}=-10x\\\\-10x=\frac{0}{2}-\frac{1600}{2}\\\\10x=800\\\\x=\frac{800}{10}=80\ ft$

Therefore, the car travels a distance of 80 feet before stopping.
