Jean and Jericho who are playing in the school grounds decided to sit on a
seesaw. Jean, who is heavier, tends to raise Jericho on the other end of the seesaw.
They tried to position themselves in order to balance the weight of each other.

Questions: Underline the correct answer.

1. This situation illustrates (direct, inverse) variation.
2. The two quantities that must vary in this situation are (weight and
distance from the center, height and weight).
3. The heavier the kid, the (closer, farther) he/she should be at the
center to balance the seesaw?
4. When Jean moves farther from the center, Jericho tends to go (up,
down).
5. If Jericho moves closer to the center, Jean tends to go (up, down).

Answers

Answer 1

We want to see underline the correct part in each statement.

1) This situation illustrates (direct, inverse) variation.2) The two quantities that must vary in this situation are (weight and distance from the center, height and weight).3) The heavier the kid, the (closer, farther) he/she should be at the center to balance the seesaw?4) When Jean moves farther from the center, Jericho tends to go (up, down).5) If Jericho moves closer to the center, Jean tends to go (up, down).

So, Jean and Jericho are playing on a seesaw.

Jean is heavier than Jericho.

Now, notice that a seesaw is a lever. So it "amplificates" the force that you apply in one end to lift the weight that is on the other end. Depending on the form of the lever and the weights, the force that you need to do changes.

If we define:

W₁ = Jean's weight.d₁ = Jean's distance to the center.W₂ = Jericho's weight.d₂ = Jericho's distance to the center.

We must have:

W₁*d₁ = W₂*d₂

Then:

1) This situation illustrates (direct, inverse) variation.

d₁, the position of Jean, varies inversely with respect to Jean's weight.

2) The two quantities that must vary in this situation are (weight and

distance from the center, height and weight).

(by the equation above)

3) The heavier the kid, the (closer, farther) he/she should be at the

center to balance the seesaw?

By the given equation, we see that d₁ must be smaller than d₂.

And the last two are trivial:

4) When Jean moves farther from the center, Jericho tends to go (up,

down).

5) If Jericho moves closer to the center, Jean tends to go (up, down).

A piano teacher has 4 1/2 hours available to teach each night. One lesson will last 3/4 of an hour. How many lessons can the teacher schedule each night?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

4 1/2 = 9/2

so, the calculation is simply how often 3/4 fits into 9/2.

and that is done by division :

9/2 / 3/4

and as we know, to divide by a fraction is the same as to multiply with the upside-down fraction.

so,

9/2 / 3/4 = 9/2 × 4/3 = (9×4)/(2×3) = 3×2/1 = 6

so, without any breaks the teacher can schedule 6 lessons each night.

A mixture of paint calls for 1/3 cups of red paint and 1/2 cup of yellow paint. How many cups of red paint would be needed for every 1 cup of yellow paint?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cup of yellow paint = 2×1/2 cup.

and that requires then also 2×1/3 Co red paint.

so, 1 cup of yellow paint mixes with 2/3 cups of red paint.

2 and 3 have a smallest common multiple (smallest number that is divisible by both numbers without remainder) of 6.

so, we need to get 6 units of each for a whole number ratio :

6×1/2 = 3 cups of yellow paint mix with 6×1/3 = 2 cups of red paint.

cardboard that is 10 inches by 18 inches. The box will be formed by making cuts as shown in
the diagram and folding up the sides.
a) Write a function that models the volume of the box.
b) What are the dimensions of the box with the maximum volume? Round to the nearest tenth.
el
at
c) What is the maximum volume of the box?

Answers

The volume of the box is the amount of space in it.

The dimension of the postcard is:

[tex]\mathbf{Length = 10}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Width = 18}[/tex]

Let x represents the length of the cut.

So, the dimension of the box is:

[tex]\mathbf{Length = 10 -2x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Width = 18 -2x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Height = x}[/tex]

(a) The function that represents the volume of the box

This is calculated as:

[tex]\mathbf{V(x) = Length \times Width \times Height}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{V(x) = (10 - 2x) \times (18 - 2x) \times x}[/tex]

Expand

[tex]\mathbf{V(x) = 180x - 56x^2 + 4x^3}[/tex]

Hence, the volume function is: [tex]\mathbf{V(x) = 180x - 56x^2 + 4x^3}[/tex]

(b) The dimension that maximizes the volume

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{V(x) = 180x - 56x^2 + 4x^3}[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\mathbf{V'(x) = 180- 112x + 12x^2}[/tex]

Set to 0

[tex]\mathbf{180- 112x + 12x^2 = 0}[/tex]

Using a calculator, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x = 7.3,2.1}[/tex]

The value x = 7.3 is greater than the dimension of the box.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x = 2.1}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]\mathbf{Length = 10 -2x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Width = 18 -2x}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Height = x}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Length = 10 -2 \times 2.1 = 5.8}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Width = 18 -2 \times 2.1 = 13.8}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Height = 2.1}[/tex]

Hence, the dimension that maximizes the volume is 5.8 by 13.8 by 2.1

(c) The maximum volume

This is calculated as the product of the dimension of the box

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 5.8 \times 13.8 \times 2.1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Volume = 168.1}[/tex]

Hence, the maximum volume of the box is 168.1 cubic inches

6 less than the product of a number and 3 is -18.. What is the
number?

Answers

Answer:X= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

6 less than the product of a number and 3 is -18.

Make each part of the sentence into numbers:

"the product of a number and 3":  becomes X*(3), where X is the "number."

"6 less than":  is -6, so we have:

X*(3) - 6

"is -18"  means = -18

Put the segments into one equation and solve:

X*(3) - 6 = -18

3X-6=-18

3X = -12

X = -4

====

See if this works:  If X=-4, then the product of it and 3 is -12.  Six less than -12 is -18.  And that is correct.  X= -4

Four different positive integers have a mean (average) of 100. If the positive difference between the smallest and largest of these integers is as large as possible, determine the average of the other two integers.

Answers

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

"Four different positive integers have a mean (average) of 100"

The total of the 4 numbers is then 4* 100 = 400

"the positive difference between the smallest and largest of these integers is as large as possible"

to get the greatest difference the first 3 numbers must be

1, 2 and 3 which totals 6

the 4th number is then 400 - 6 = 394

the four numbers are 1, 2, 3 and 394

The greatest difference is between 1 and 394

"the average of the other two integers"

(2 + 3)/2 = 2.5

The average of the other two integers is 1.5.

What is the average of the two numbers?

An integer is an whole number. An example of an integer is 20.

If the mean of the four integers is 100. It means that the sum of the integers must be 400. If the integers are 0,1,2, 397. The largest number is 397 and the smallest number is 0. The average of the other two integers is (1 + 2 ) / 2 = 1.5
