Answer:

3 \frac{2}{7} pastries

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount to be shared / number of people sharing

23 / 7

To simplify easily in our heads, we can take 23 and subtract 7. That then becomes a 1. Subtract 7 again, it becomes a 2. We can do this until we have taken all of the wholes (equivalent to 1) out of 23/7. The math for this is shown below.

\frac{23}{7} =\frac{7 +7 +7+2}{7} =3\frac{2}{7}

Have a nice day!

FIND THE SLOPE OF THE LINE...<br><br> A) 1/2<br><br> B) 2<br><br> C) - 1/2<br><br> D) -2
Ainat [17]

Answer:

The slope would be C) -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find it, we need to use the slope formula and two points on the line. The points we'll use are (0, -3) and (2, -4)

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-3 - -4)/(0 - 2)

m = 1/-2

m = -1/2

What is the error due to using linear interpolation to estimate the value of sinxsin⁡x at x = \pi/3? your answer should have at
Bad White [126]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • using y = x, the error is about 0.1812
  • using y = (x -π/4 +1)/√2, the error is about 0.02620
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The actual value of sin(π/3) is (√3)/2 ≈ 0.86602540.

If the sine function is approximated by y=x (no error at x = 0), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... x -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... π/3 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.18117215 ≈ 0.1812

You know right away this is a bad approximation, because the approximate value is π/3 ≈ 1.04719755, a value greater than 1. The range of the sine function is [-1, 1] so there will be no values greater than 1.

___

If the sine function is approximated by y=(x+1-π/4)/√2 (no error at x=π/4), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... (x+1-π/4)/√2 -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... (π/12 +1)/√2 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.026201500 ≈ 0.02620

Find the exact length of the third side.<br> 2 <br> 2<br><br> ASAP HELP
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

2√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that for a right triangle, if the two legs are the same length "x", then the hypotenuse will always be "x√2"

Here each leg has a length of 2, so the hypotenuse is equal to 2√2

A bird species in danger of extinction has a population that is decreasing exponentially (A = A0e^kt). Five years ago, the popul
Natalija [7]

Answer:

It'll take approximately 34 years from today.

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to solve this problem we first need to find the rate of change, "k", to do that we will use the given information where the population was 1400 five years ago and its now 1000. Applying this data to the equation gives us:

A = A_0*e^{k*t}\\1000 = 1400*e^{5*k}\\1400*e^{5*k} = 1000\\e^{5*k} = \frac{1000}{1400}\\ln(e^{5*k}) = ln(\frac{1000}{1400})\\5*k = ln(1000) - ln(1400) \\k = \frac{ln(1000) - ln(1400)}{5} = -0.06729

We now know the value for "k", we can estimate how many years it will take for the bird population to dip below 100. We have:

100 = 1000*e^{-0.06729*t}\\e^{-0.06729*t} = \frac{100}{1000}\\ln(e^{-0.06729*t} = \frac{1}{10}\\-0.06729*t = ln(0.1)\\t = -\frac{ln(0.1)}{0.06729} = 34.22

It'll take approximately 34 years from today.

Help Katherine has a new job and earns salary of $55,000. max has a new job and earns a salary of $64,000. Katherine will receiv
monitta

The equation that represent the same salary is 55,000x+2,500x=64,000+1500x

<h3>What is Algebra?</h3>

Algebra is a branch of mathematics dealing with symbols and the rules for manipulating those symbols.

Given:

Katherine has a new job and earns salary of $55,000.  Katherine will receive a salary increase of $2,500 per year .

max has a new job and earns a salary of $64,000. Max will receive a salary increase of $1,500 per year.

So, in the case they would have the same salary for some x years the expression can be

Katherine salary along with increment= 55000+ 2500x

Max salary along with increment= 64000+ 1500x

Hence, equation ca be used to find x, the number of years it will take Katherine to earn the same salary as Max is 55,000x+2,500x=64,000+1500x.
