The function y = -3x + 42 models the average number of dogs at an animal shelter, where x is the number of days after July 1. The function y = 4x + 7 models the average number of cats at the animal shelter, where x is the number of days after July 1. After how many days is the average number of cats and dogs at the shelter the same?
A. 5 days
B. 7 days
C. 35 days
D. 49 days

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Average number of dogs at an animal shelter: y = -3x + 42

Average number of cats at the animal shelter: y = 4x + 7

Where,

x = number of days after July 1

After how many days is the average number of cats and dogs at the shelter the same?

Equate both functions

-3x + 42 = 4x + 7

-3x - 4x = 7 - 42

-7x = -35

Divide both sides by -7

x = -35 / -7

= 5

x = 5 days

The correct answer is A. 5 days

What are the explicit equation and domain for an arithmetic
sequence with a first term of 5 and a second term of 3?

Answers

Given:

First term of an arithmetic sequence = 5

Second term = 3

To find:

The explicit formula for the given arithmetic sequence.

Solution:

We have,

First term: [tex]a_1=5[/tex]

Second term: [tex]a_2=3[/tex]

Common difference is

[tex]d=a_2-a_1[/tex]

[tex]d=3-5[/tex]

[tex]d=-2[/tex]

Now, the explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_n=a+(n-1)d[/tex]

where, a is first term and d is common difference.

Putting a=5 and d=-2, we get

[tex]a_n=5+(n-1)(-2)[/tex]

It can also be written as

[tex]a_n=5-2n+2[/tex]

[tex]a_n=7-2n[/tex]

Here, n is an integer greater than or equal to 1.

Domain is the set of input values.

Therefore, the explicit equation is [tex]a_n=5+(n-1)(-2)[/tex] or [tex]a_n=7-2n[/tex] and domain is all interest greater than or equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 7x - 18 = 0

the factor must be p and q from the form.of

(x+p)(x+q) = 0

then find the value of p and q by this rules

p + q = 7

p x q = -18

p = 9

q = -2

(x + 9)(x + (-2)) = 0

(x+9)(x-2) = 0

Answer:

c.) [tex](x-2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is written in the form [tex]ac^2+bx+c[/tex]. To factor, find two numbers whose sum is b and whose product is c:

_×_=-18

_+_=7

Use -2 and 7:

-2×9=-18

-2+9=7

Substitute the two numbers for b:

[tex]x^2-2x+9x-18[/tex]

[tex](x^2-2x)+(9x-18)[/tex]

Factor out common terms. The common term in the first parentheses is x and the common term in the second is 9:

[tex]x(\frac{x^2-2x}{x} )+9(\frac{9x-18}{9})\\\\x(x-2)+9(x-2)[/tex]

Cancel out one of the parentheses since they have the same terms and plug the factored numbers in:

[tex](x-2)(x+9)[/tex]

:Done

Check Your Work:

To see if the given factored form is true, simplify it using FOIL:

First, Outside, Inside, Last

[tex](x-2)(x+9)[/tex]

Multiply the first terms:

[tex]x*x=x^2[/tex]

Multiply the terms on the outside:

[tex]x*9=9x\\\\x^2+9x[/tex]

Multiply the inside terms:

[tex]-2*x=-2x\\\\x^2+9x-2x[/tex]

Multiply the last terms:

[tex]-2*9=-18\\\\x^2+9x-2x-18[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]x^2+(9x-2x)-18\\\\x^2+7x-18[/tex]

Therefore, the factored form is true.

Eric sells model cars from a booth at a local flea market. He purchases each model car from a distributor for $14 and the flea market charges him a booth fee of $30. Eric sells each model car for $20. How many cars will Eric have to sell to break even?

Answers

Answer: 5 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Breakeven point = Fixed Cost/ Contribution margin

Fixed cost is $30 which is the flea market booth charge

Contribution margin is sales price less variable cost.

The Variable Cost is the amount he is charged by the distributor of $14.

Contribution Margin = 20 - 14

= $6

Breakeven point = 30/6

= 5 cars

True or False? A triangle can have side lengths of 3, 3 , and 6

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

We can check with the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

  a and b are always the smaller sides, the legs

  c is the longer side, the hypotenuse

3^2 + 3^2 >  6^2

9 + 9 > 36

18 < 36

18 is not greater than 36, therefore this triangle can not have the side lengths 3, 3, and 6.

A set of floor speakers costs $466. If the extended warranty on the speakers costs 32% of the price of the speakers, how much does the extended warranty cost

Answers

Answer: 149.12

Step-by-step explanation:

to find out the extended warranty we do,

466*(32/100)=149.12

The extended warranty cost is $149.12.

What is percentage?

Percentage is defined as a given part or amount in every hundred. It is a fraction with 100 as the denominator and is represented by the symbol "%".

Given that, a set of floor speakers costs $466.

If the extended warranty on the speakers costs 32% of the price of the speakers.

Now, extended price =32% of 466

32/100 ×466

= 0.32×466

= $149.12

Therefore, the extended warranty cost is $149.12.

(iii) A ladder is kept a point halfway from the base as shown in the figure. It just touches
the top of the sump. Find the length of the ladder, assuming x-42 (correct to 1 dp)​

Answers

Answer:

1) b, 2) d, 3) d

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is the product of three dimensions

V = lwh

Given:

w = x + 1, l = x + 2 and V(x) = x³ + x² - 4x - 4

1) Let's find the height:

x³ + x² - 4x - 4 =x²(x + 1) - 4(x + 1) = (x² -4)(x + 1) = (x + 2)(x - 2)(x + 1)We got h = x - 2

2) x = 4 m

Volume is:

V = 4³ + 4² - 4*4 - 4 = 60 m³

3) x = 4 m

Dimensions are:

w = x + 1 = 5 m, l = x + 2 = 6 m, h = x - 2 = 2 m

Full surface area is:

2(lw + lh + wh) =2(5*6 + 6*2 + 5*2) = 104 m²

It costs $3 for children and $7 for adults to attend a school basketball game. If 5000 people attended the game and the total takings at the door was $25000, determine the number of children and the number of adults that attended the game, using simultaneous elimination.

Answers

Answer:

2500 children and 2500 adults

The number of children is 2500 and the number of adults that attended the game is also 2500.

System of equations:

Let us consider that, number of children be x and number of adults be y that attend game.

Since, total 5000 people attend the game.

               [tex]x+y=5000\\\\x=5000-y..........(1)[/tex]

It costs $3 for children and $7 for adults and the total takings at the door was $25000

              [tex]3x+7y=25000 .............(2)[/tex]

Substitute value of x from equation 1 into equation 2.

           [tex]3(5000-y)+7y=25000\\\\15000-3y+7y=25000\\\\4y=10000\\\\y=10000/4=2500[/tex]

So that, [tex]x=5000-2500=2500[/tex]

Thus, the number of children is 2500 and the number of adults that attended the game is also 2500.
