TRUST ME I GOT EXCEPTED INTO HARVARD

Answer 2

Answer:

12/17 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

12/17 is greater than 5/8 because to determine which fraction is greater you need to have the same denominator. To get the same denominator I multiplied 17 by 8 and 8 by 17. Since what you do the denominator you have to do the same to the numerator, you would multiply 12 by 8 and 5 by 17 which would lead you to get 12/17= 96/136 and 5/8= 85/136. So, 96/136 > 85/136.

Sarah took the advertising department from her company on a round trip to meet with a potential client. Including Sarah a total of 10 people took the trip. She was able to purchase coach tickets for $230 and first class tickets for $1290. She used her total budget for airfare for the trip, which was $7600. How many first class tickets did she buy? How many coach tickets did she buy?

Answers

You can set up a system of equations for this problem. Let x = number of coach tickets and y = number of first class tickets. Then:

330x + 1220y = 12730 (cost of coach tickets plus cost of first class tickets is total budget)

x + y = 17 (number of coach tickets plus number of first class tickets is total number of people)

Solve the second equation for y to get y = 17 - x, then plug that into the first equation and solve for x:

330x + 1220(17 - x) = 12730

330x + 20740 - 1220x = 12730

-890x + 20740 = 12730

-890x = -8010

x = 9

Sarah bought x = 9 coach tickets. Plug that into the second equation and solve for y:

9 + y = 17

y = 8

Sarah bought y = 8 first class tickets.

#30 Tickets to a school play cost $2 if bought in advance and $3 at the door. By selling all 400 tickets, $1,030 was

collected. Let x represent the number of tickets sold at the door.

In terms of x. how many tickets were sold in advance?

Answers

Answer:

170 tickets were sold in advance

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the = number of tickets sold at the door.

Let y represent the = number of tickets sold in advance

Tickets to a school play cost $2 if bought in advance and $3 at the door. By selling all 400 tickets, $1,030 was

collected.

Hence, we have two equations

x + y = 400 tickets

$3 × x + $2 × y = $1,030

x + y = 400.... Equation 1

x = 400 - y

3x + 2y = 1030........ Equation 2

Substitute 400 - y for x in Equation 2

3(400 - y) + 2y = 1030

1200 - 3y + 2y = 1030

Collect like terms

-y = 1030 -1200

-y = -170

y = 170

Since y represent the number of tickets sold in advance, therefore, 170 tickets were sold in advance.

D. y = 76x

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find the gradient, by using the gradient formula

rise over run

380 - 228

---------------- <- division sign

   5 - 3

152/2 = 76

Hence y = 76x + c

Find c by subbing points in. I am going to use this as an example (5, 380)

380 = 76(5) + c

380 -380 = c

c = 0

Hence,  y = 76x

Answers

Answer:

Choice B) B \sqrt{29} 29 ​ square root of, 29, end square root = √29

Step-by-step explanation:

When given coordinates, the distance between those points(coordinates) is calculated as:

Distance = √(x2 - x1)² +(y2 - y1)²

Given(x1, y1), (x2, y2)

Fromm the question, we are given points(4,7) and (2,2)

Distance = √(x2 - x1)² +(y2 - y1)²

= √(2 - 4)² + (2 - 7)²

= √-2² + -5²

= √4 + 25

= √29

Therefore, Choice B is the answer = √29

[tex]\huge\boxed{y=-16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to note that this represents a proportional relationship. This means that every time x increases by 1, y will increase by a proportional value.

In order to solve for proportions, we can create a proportion fraction which basically puts two variables over each other. Let's put x over y.

[tex]\frac{x}{y}[/tex]

We know that in the first fraction, x=6 and y=24.

[tex]\frac{6}{24}[/tex]

And we know that x=-4 but we have an unknown y value.

[tex]\frac{-4}{y}[/tex]

We can now set these proportions equal to each other and solve for the missing y using cross products.

[tex]\frac{6}{24}=\frac{-4}{y}[/tex] [tex]y = (24 \cdot -4) \div 6[/tex] [tex]y = -96 \div 6[/tex] [tex]y = -16[/tex]

Amelie is shopping for children's books and puzzle books. She wants to purchase at least 2 more children's books than puzzle books, but she can afford no more than 15 items total. If x represents the number of childrens books and y represents the number of puzzle books Amelie purchases, which point lies in the solution set?​

Answers

x = 9
y = 6

Step by step:

Divide 15 by 2: 15 ÷ 2 = 7.5
Subtract 0.5 from 7.5 (this will later be added back): 7.5 - 0.5 = 7
Subtract 1 from 7 (she wants to buy at least 2 more children books): 7 - 1 = 6
Subtract 6 from 15 (6 being the number of puzzle books, 15 being the total number of items): 15 - 6 = 9 (number of children books)

As the heart beats, blood pressure increases and
decreases. This happens cyclically at the rate of the
person's heart beat. A doctor is monitoring the blood
pressure of a patient whose heart rate is 70 beats per
minute. The maximum blood pressure over the course of
a 10-minute period is 120 mm/Hg and the minimum is 60
mm/Hg.
Find a sine function that models the person’s blood pressure as a function of time (in minutes).

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Got it right on edge2020

The sine function that models the person’s blood pressure will be f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5) + 90.

What is a function?

Function is a relationship between two sets X and Y where Set X is called domain and set Y is called codomain.

For example f(x)= sin x+ cos x

We have,

The Blood pressure of patient with the heart rate = 70 beats/ minute

And,

In next 10 minutes,

The maximum blood pressure i.e. (a + d) = 120 mm/Hg

The maximum blood pressure i.e. (-a + d) = 60 mm/Hg

So,

Sine function works on;

f(x) = a sin(bx + c) +d

So,

Now,

Adding Maximum and Minimum blood pressure,

i.e.

(a+d)+(-a+d) = 120 + 60

⇒a + d - a + d = 180

⇒ 2d = 180

d =90

So,

NOw, substituting this value in maximum blood pressure,

i.e. (a + d) = 120

a + 90 =120

a = 30

we have time period = 10 minutes,

So,

2Π/b = 10

⇒ b = Π/5

So,

Count is started at 0.

So, c = 0,

Putting the above value,

f(x) = a sin(bx + c) +d

⇒f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5 + 0) +90

⇒f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5) +90

Therefore, the sine function that models the person’s blood pressure as a function of time (in minutes) will be f(x) = 30 sin(Πx/5) + 90.

Hint: | Move terms with x to the left-hand side.

Subtract x from both sides:
