We often use functions to model or represent situations and relationships. These representations can be as equations, graphs, ta

bles, or even verbal descriptions. What does it mean to "represent" something? In what other situations have you heard that term used, and how was its meaning in those situations similar to its usage in algebra?​

A representation is the provision of a portrait or a description of an object,

a  person, or an observed situation in a particular (defined) way.

  • In algebra, functions are used to accurately serve as representation that show equivalence of observed phenomena or system.

  • Graphs are used to present data in a pictorial form, such that an end user can more quickly and or easily understand the information conveyed.

  • Equations are used to represent equivalent situations in a manner to provide guidance that enable a user of the equation to find the required result or information.

  • Tables represent the data in a situation in an organized manner.

  • Venn diagrams are used to represent the relationship between group numbers in a set.

Other situations where the term is used are;

  • Athletes representing countries in tournaments

The similarity in the usage of the term to algebra is that the athletes have

the attributes of the country they represent, such that the people of the

country are viewed as strong as the athletes representing them.

B. 2(3x - 5) = 2x + 6
Leto [7]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(3x - 5) = 2x + 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

3x - 5 = x + 3 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x - 5 = 3 ( add 5 to both sides )

2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4

State the converse, contrapositive, and inverse of each of these conditional statements a) If it snows tonight, then I will stay
marissa [1.9K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

For the condition statement p \rightarrow q or equivalent "If p then q"

  • The rule for Converse is: Interchange the two statements.
  • The rule for Inverse is: Negative both statements.
  • The rule for Contrapositive is: Negative both statements and interchange them.

Part (A) If it snows tonight, then I will stay at home.

Here p is If it snows tonight, and q is I will stay at home.

Converse: If I will stay at home then it snows tonight.

q \rightarrow p

Inverse: If it doesn't snows tonight, then I will not stay at home.

\sim p \rightarrow \sim q

Contrapositive: If I will not stay at home then it doesn't snows tonight.

\sim q \rightarrow \sim p

Part (B) I go to the beach whenever it is a sunny summer day.

Here p is I go to the beach, and q is it is a sunny summer day.

Converse: It is a sunny summer day whenever I go to the beach.

q \rightarrow p

Inverse: I don't go to the beach whenever it is not a sunny summer day.

\sim p \rightarrow \sim q

Contrapositive: It is not a sunny summer day whenever I don't go to the beach.

\sim q \rightarrow \sim p

Part (C) When I stay up late, it is necessary that I sleep until noon.

P is I sleep until noon and q is I stay up late.

Converse: If I sleep until noon, then it is necessary that i stay up late.

q \rightarrow p

Inverse: When I don't stay up late, it is necessary that I don't sleep until noon.

\sim p \rightarrow \sim q

Contrapositive: If I don't sleep until noon, then it is not necessary that i stay up late.

\sim q \rightarrow \sim p

use the general slicing method to find the volume of The solid whose base is the triangle with vertices (0 comma 0 )​, (15 comma
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

volume V of the solid

\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is depicted in the picture attached

(see picture)

First, we divide the segment [0, 5] on the X-axis into n equal parts of length 5/n each

[0, 5/n], [5/n, 2(5/n)], [2(5/n), 3(5/n)],..., [(n-1)(5/n), 5]

Now, we slice our solid into n slices.  

Each slice is a quarter of cylinder 5/n thick and has a radius of  

-k(5/n) + 5  for each k = 1,2,..., n (see picture)

So the volume of each slice is  

\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-k(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}

for k=1,2,..., n

We then add up the volumes of all these slices

\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-2(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+...+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-n(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}

Notice that the last term of the sum vanishes. After making up the expression a little, we get

\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left[(-(5/n)+5)^2+(-2(5/n)+5)^2+...+(-(n-1)(5/n)+5)^2\right]=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2

But

\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}((5/n)^2k^2-(50/n)k+25)=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)

we also know that

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}

and

\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}

so we have, after replacing and simplifying, the sum of the slices equals

\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left(\displaystyle\frac{25}{n^2}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}-\displaystyle\frac{50}{n}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}

Now we take the limit when n tends to infinite (the slices get thinner and thinner)

\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}(2-3/n+1/n^2)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.2=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}

and the volume V of our solid is

\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}
