The known facts
- the sum of Natalie's age and Fred's age is 36
- the sum of Fred's age times four and Natalie's age is 72
Now, let's set up the equations where N is Natalie's age and F is Fred's age.
N + F = 36 ---- equation 1
N + 4F = 72 ---- equation 2
equation 2 minus equation 1 ---> 3F = 36 ---> F = 12, thus N = 24
Thus Fred is 12 years old, and Natalie is 24 years old.
When ever you have percentages, it should be helpful to bear in mind you can express them as multipliers. In this case, it will be helpful.
So, if we let:
a = test score
b = target score
then, using the information given:
a = 1.1b + 1
a = 1.15b - 3
and we get simultaneous equations.
'1.1' and '1.15' are the multipliers that I got using the percentages. Multiplying a value by 1.1 is the equivalent of increasing the value by 10%. If you multiplied it by 0.1 (which is the same as dividing by 10), you would get just 10% of the value.
Back to the simultaneous equations, we can just solve them now:
There are a number of ways to do this but I will use my preferred method:
Rearrange to express in terms of b:
a = 1.1b + 1
then b = (a - 1)/1.1
a = 1.15b - 3
then b = (a + 3)/1.15
Since they are both equal to b, they are of the same value so we can set them equal to each other and solve for a:
(a - 1)/1.1 = (a + 3)/1.15
1.15 * (a - 1) = 1.1 * (a + 3)
1.15a - 1.15 = 1.1a + 3.3
0.05a = 4.45
a = 89
Step-by-step explanation:
Putting both functions into a graphing calculator, we can easily find the domain and range. (attatched)
By looking at the graph, we can tell that f(x) is a quadratic function because of the symmetry. We can also tell that it never goes below 4. Knowing this, we can determine the domain and range.
Domain: {x | all real numbers}
Range: {y | y > 4}
By looking at the graph, we can tell that g(x) is an exponential function because it has a curve, and never goes below the x. Knowing this, we can determine the domain and range.
Domain: {x | all real numbers}
Range: {y | y > 0}
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Curved surface area=
where R is radius and H is height
Since H=6R then curved surface area=
Therefore,
and making R the subject
Therefore, H=6R=6*3.000604=18.00362 m
Therefore,
