A produce company sells crates filled with a mixture of apples and oranges during the holiday season to grocery stores. Each cra

te contains a total of 72 pieces of fruit. Suppose that a crate has 8 more apples than oranges.
Which system of linear equations can be used to determine the number of pieces of each kind of fruit in the crate?
A)a + o = 72 o = a + 8
B)a + o = 72 a = o + 8
C)8a + o = 72 a + o = 8
D)a + 8o = 72 a + o = 8

If g(x) = -4x + 5, find g(2x-1).

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

- 8x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate g(2x - 1) substitute x = 2x - 1 into g(x), that is

g(2x - 1)

= - 4(2x - 1) + 5 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify

= - 8x + 4 + 5

= - 8x + 9

The table below shows the relative frequencies of the color of cars bought last month by males and females. Which percentage rep

frozen [14]

The first thing we must do for this case is to observe the highest relative frequency of the table in the total column.
For the white car we have:
Male = 0.11
Female = 0.20
Total = 0.31
The percentage is given by:
(0.31) * (100) = 31%
Answer:
The percentage that represents the car bought most often is:
31%

Find the solution of the given initial value problems in explicit form. Determine the interval where the solutions are defined.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The solution of the given initial value problems in explicit form is $y=x-x^2-2$ and the solutions are defined for all real numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given differential equation is

$y'=1-2x$

It can be written as

$\frac{dy}{dx}=1-2x$

Use variable separable method to solve this differential equation.

$dy=(1-2x)dx$

Integrate both the sides.

$\int dy=\int (1-2x)dx$

$y=x-2(\frac{x^2}{2})+C$ $[\because \int x^n=\frac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}]$

$y=x-x^2+C$ ... (1)

It is given that y(1) = -2. Substitute x=1 and y=-2 to find the value of C.

$-2=1-(1)^2+C$

$-2=1-1+C$

$-2=C$

The value of C is -2. Substitute C=-2 in equation (1).

$y=x-x^2-2$

Therefore the solution of the given initial value problems in explicit form is $y=x-x^2-2$ .

The solution is quadratic function, so it is defined for all real values.

Therefore the solutions are defined for all real numbers.

Calculate two iterations of Newton's Method for the function using the given initial guess. (Round your answers to four decimal

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The first and second iteration of Newton's Method are 3 and $\frac{11}{6}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Newton's Method is a multi-step numerical method for continuous diffentiable function of the form $f(x) = 0$ based on the following formula:

$x_{i+1} = x_{i} -\frac{f(x_{i})}{f'(x_{i})}$

Where:

$x_{i}$ - i-th Approximation, dimensionless.

$x_{i+1}$ - (i+1)-th Approximation, dimensionless.

$f(x_{i})$ - Function evaluated at i-th Approximation, dimensionless.

$f'(x_{i})$ - First derivative evaluated at (i+1)-th Approximation, dimensionless.

Let be $f(x) = x^{2}-8$ and $f'(x) = 2\cdot x$ , the resultant expression is:

$x_{i+1} = x_{i} -\frac{x_{i}^{2}-8}{2\cdot x_{i}}$

First iteration: ( $x_{1} = 2$ )

$x_{2} = 2-\frac{2^{2}-8}{2\cdot (2)}$

$x_{2} = 2 + \frac{4}{4}$

$x_{2} = 3$

Second iteration: ( $x_{2} = 3$ )

$x_{3} = 3-\frac{3^{2}-8}{2\cdot (3)}$

$x_{3} = 2 - \frac{1}{6}$

$x_{3} = \frac{11}{6}$
