Gary wanted to determine the average height of boys at the high school. His older brother is on the basketball team, so he asked

him to measure his teammates. After interpreting the results, Gary determined the average height of a high-school-aged boy to be 6 feet, 1 inch. HELP ASAPPPPP
Would you consider these results to be valid?

Yes, because only high-school boys were surveyed.

Yes, because the results were obtained randomly by measuring the boys basketball team.

No, because boys on the basketball team are likely to be taller than the average high school boy.

No, because there are no girls surveyed.

Lina20 [59]
3x-3 and 4x-6 are complementary angles meaning together they add up to 180°. Set them equal to each other. So you get 3x-3=4x-6 now simplify this. Now you have x=3 and there you have it! If you plug 3 into x in both equations it works! Hope this helps!

Two bicyclists were racing toward each other when they were 98 miles apart. Three hours later they did not meet yet and the dist
lesya [120]

Let, speed of 1st bicyclist is x.

So, speed of 2nd bicyclist is x-3 .

We know, relative speed when two objects moves towards each other :

v = x + ( x-3 )\\\\v = 2x - 3

Now, distance travelled in 3 hours is (98-2) miles .

So,

2x-3 = \dfrac{96}{3}\\\\2x - 3 = 32\\\\2x = 35\\\\x = 17.5\ mph

Therefore, speed of bikes are 17.5 mph and 14.5 mph.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Consider the following equation of the form dy/dt = f(y)dy/dt = ey − 1, −[infinity] &lt; y0 &lt; [infinity](a) Sketch the graph
kotegsom [21]

Complete Question:

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a) The graph of  f(y) versus y. is shown on the second uploaded image

b) The critical point is at y = 0  and the solution is asymptotically unstable.

c)The phase line is shown on the third uploaded image

d) The sketch for the several graphs of solution in the ty-plane  is shown on the fourth uploaded image

Step-by-step explanation:

Step One: Sketch The Graph of  f(y) versus y

Looking at the given differential equation

       \frac{dy}{dt} = e^{y} - 1 for -∞ < y_{o} < ∞

 We can say let \frac{dy}{dt} = f(y) =e^{y} - 1

Now the dependent value is f(y) and the independent value is y so to sketch is graph we can assume a scale in this case i cm on the graph is equal to 2 unit for both f(y) and y and the match the coordinates and after that join the point to form the graph as shown on the uploaded image.

Step Two : Determine the critical point

   To fin the critical point we have to set   \frac{dy}{dt} = 0

       This means e^{y} - 1 = 0

                          For this to be possible e^{y} = 1

                          which means that  e^{y} = e^{0}

                          which implies that y = 0

Hence the critical point occurs at y = 0

meaning that the equilibrium solution is y = 0

As t → ∞, our curve is going to move away from y = 0  hence it is asymptotically unstable.

Step Three : Draw the Phase lines

A phase line can be defined as an image that shows or represents the way an ODE(ordinary differential equation ) that does not explicitly depend on the independent variable behaves in a single variable. To draw this phase line , draw the y-axis as a vertical line and mark on it the equilibrium, i.e. where  f(y) = 0.

In each of the intervals bounded  by the equilibrium draw an upward

pointing arrow if f(y) > 0 and a downward pointing arrow if f(y) < 0.

      This phase line would solely depend on y does not matter what t is

On the positive x axis it would get steeper very quickly as you move up (looking at the part A graph).

For  below the x-axis which stable (looking at the part a graph) we are still going to have negative slope but they are going to be close to 0 and they would take a little bit longer to get steeper  

Step Four : Draw a Solution Curve

A solution curve is a curve that shows the solution of a DE (deferential equation)

Here the solution curve would be drawn on the ty-plane

So the t-axis(x-axis) is its the equilibrium  that is it is the solution

If we are above the x-axis it is going to increase faster and if we are below it is going to decrease but it would be slower (looking at part A graph)

Desiree works 28 hours per week. She has a monthly income of $120 from investments. Desiree also plays in a band one night a wee
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
So hmmm let's see
she has a monthly income of 120 from investments, now, there are 12 months in a year, so her yearly income from investments are 120*12 or
$1440

she plays on a band, and makes 200 a week, now, there are 52 weeks in a year, so her yearly income from band playing is 200 * 52, or
$10400

her total annual income is 49696, now, if we subtract the band and investment income, we'd be left over with only what comes from her job payrate
so 49696 - 1440 - 10400 is 37856

so, she makes from her job, $37856 annually

now, she only works 28 hours weekly, how much is that yearly?   well, 52 weeks in a year, she works 28*52 hours a year, let us divide 37856 by that

37856 ÷ ( 28 * 52)   well, it ends up as 26

so, her hourly payrate is $26 per hour

now, she wants to ask for a raise, to make 51880 annually

well, if we check the difference of 51880 and 49696, that'd leave us with the difference in pay, or the raise annual amount

51880 - 49696 = 2184

ok, so she wants $2184 annually more from her work
how much is that in the hours she works annually?  well 2184 ÷ ( 28 * 52)
