Answer:

x = 5.5

y = - 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one of the numbers = x

Let the other number = y

x + y = - 1

x = y + 12    Put the second equation into the first one

y + 12 + y = - 1       Subtract 12 from both sides

y + y = - 1 - 12        Combine both left and right sides

2y = - 13                Divide by 2

2y/2 = - 13/1

y = - 6.5

x + y = - 1

x - 6.5 = - 1            Add 6.5 to both sides

x = 5.5

Jenny works in a picture framing shop. She has a function f(x) equals X +2 that find the size of a square frame, given a picture
Iteru [2.4K]

Given:

The function for size of a square frame is

f(x)=x+2

where, x is the side length of the picture.

The function for the price in dollars for the frame is

p(x)=3x

To find:

The single function for the price of a picture with an edge length of x.

Solution:

We know that, for a picture with an edge length of x.

Size of a square frame = f(x)

Price in dollars for the frame = p(x)

Single function for the price of a picture with an edge length of x is

(p\circ f)(x)=p(f(x))

(p\circ f)(x)=p(x+2)       [\because f(x)=x+2]

(p\circ f)(x)=3(x+2)           [\because p(x)=3x]

Let the name of this function is c(x). So,

c(x)=3(x+2)

Therefore, the required function is c(x)=3(x+2).

A balloon is rising at a constant speed of 5 ftys. A boy is cycling along a straight road at a speed of 15 ftys. When he passes
Ket [755]

Answer:

  13 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

t seconds after the boy passes under the balloon the distance between them is ...

  d = √((15t)² +(45+5t)²) = √(250t² +450t +2025)

The rate of change of d with respect to t is ...

  dd/dt = (500t +450)/(2√(250t² +450t +2025)) = (50t +45)/√(10t² +18t +81)

At t=3, this derivative evaluates to ...

  dd/dt = (50·3 +45)/√(90+54+81) = 195/15 = 13

The distance between the boy and the balloon is increasing at the rate of 13 ft per second.

_____

The boy is moving horizontally at 15 ft/s, so his position relative to the spot under the balloon is 15t feet after t seconds.

The balloon starts at 45 feet above the boy and is moving upward at 5 ft/s, so its vertical distance from the spot under the balloon is 45+5t feet after t seconds.

The straight-line distance between the boy and the balloon is found as the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 15t and (45+5t). Using the Pythagorean theorem, that distance is ...

  d = √((15t)² + (45+5t)²)
