A store is having a sale on almonds and jelly beans. For 4 pounds of almonds and 8 pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is $25. For 2 pounds of almonds and 3
pounds of jelly beans, the total cost is $10. Find the cost for each pound of almonds and each pound of jelly beans.
Answers
let x = number of pounds of jelly beans
y = number of pounds of almonds .
then , 4x + 8y =33
2x + 3y = 13
multiply the second equation by -2 to get the system :
4x + 8y =33
-4x - 6y = -26
adding the equations ,we get 2y=7. so y=3.5
substitute for y in either of the given equations : 2x + 3 (3.5) =13
+ 10.5=13
2x =2.5
x=1.25
answer : A pound of jelly beans costs $1.25 and a pound of almonds costs $3.50.

Answer:
[tex]f(x)=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4x^2-3}}[/tex] for [tex](-\infty, -\sqrt {\frac 3 4 })[/tex] and [tex](\infty, \sqrt {\frac 3 4 })[/tex] .
Step-by-step explanation:
The given differential equation is [tex]\frac{dy}{dx}=-4xy^3[/tex]
Rearranging it as
[tex]y^{-3}dy=-4xdx \\\\\frac{y^{-3+1}}{-3+1}=-4\frac{x^2}{2}+C \\\\\frac{y^{-2}}{2}=4\frac{x^2}{2}+C \\\\y^{-2}=4x^2+C\cdots(i)[/tex]
where C is constant.
The initial condition is f(-1)=-1, i.e for x=-1, y=-1.
So, by using the initial condition to get the value of constant:
[tex](-1)^{-2}=4(-1)^2+C \\\\1=4+C \\\\C=1-4=-3[/tex]
From equation (i), we have
[tex]y^{-2}=4x^2+(-3) \\\\y^2=\frac{1}{4x^2-3} \\\\y=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4x^2-3}} \\\\[/tex]
As y=f(x), so the required particular solution
[tex]f(x)=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4x^2-3}}[/tex]
Now, determining the domain of the function
As for a real value output, the term under square root must be positive.
So,
[tex]\frac{1}{4x^2-3} >0 \\\\\Rightarrow 4x^2-3 >0 \\\\\Rightarrow x^2 > \frac 3 4 \\\\\Rightarrow |x|>\sqrt {\frac 3 4 } \\\\\Rightarrow x> \sqrt {\frac 3 4 } \; and \; x< -\sqrt {\frac 3 4 }[/tex]
Therefore, the domain of the function is
[tex](-\infty, -\sqrt {\frac 3 4 }) \;and\; (\infty, \sqrt {\frac 3 4 })[/tex]
Hence, [tex]f(x)=\sqrt{\frac{1}{4x^2-3}}[/tex] for [tex](-\infty, -\sqrt {\frac 3 4 })[/tex] and [tex](\infty, \sqrt {\frac 3 4 })[/tex] .

The age in United States has a normal distribution with a mean 46 years and standard deviation 13 years. The children are classified as those younger than 18 years and the middle age citizens are those in the age group 18-55. If a citizen is randomly chosen, what is the probability that he/she is middle age
Answers
Answer:
0.74
Step-by-step explanation:
The middle age citizens are those in the age group of 18-55.
We solve this question using z score formula
z = (x-μ)/σ, where
x is the raw score
μ is the population mean
σ is the population standard deviation.
Mean 46 years
Standard deviation 13 years
For x = 18 years
z = 18 - 46/13
z = -2.15385
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 18) = 0.015626
For x = 55 years
z = 55 - 46/13
= 0.69231
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 55) = 0.75563
The probability that he/she is middle age is
P(x = 55) - P( x = 18)
= 0.75563 - 0.015626
= 0.740004
Approximately = 0.74

For a quadratic function having no x-intercepts the discriminant should be less than 0 .

Now if this is less than zero if we plug in the values of a, b and c the square root of a negative number cannot be calculated thus giving us no real x-intercepts.
[tex]x=-b+-\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\\\x=-b+-\frac{\sqrt{D} }{2a}[/tex]
Here we can see that if we the value of D is less than zero the square would not be possible thus our correct choices are ,
