Kirsten is driving to a city that is 400 miles away. When Kirsten left home, she had 15 gallons of gas in her car. Assume that her car gets 25 miles per gallon of gas. Define a function f so that f(x) is the amount of gas left in her car after she has driven x miles from home. What are intercepts for that function. What do they represent.

Answers

Answer 1

The equation that gives us the amount of gas left in her car, given the driven miles, is

[tex]f(x)=15-\frac{x}{25}[/tex]

Notice that when x=25, there will remain 14 gallons of gas in the tank.

The x-intercept is

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(x)=0 \\ \Rightarrow0=15-\frac{x}{25} \\ \Rightarrow x=15\cdot25=375 \end{gathered}[/tex]

(375,0). This is the maximum distance one can drive when the amount of gas in the tank reaches zero gallons.

On the other hand, the y-intercept is

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=0 \\ \Rightarrow f(x)=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

(0,15). This is the number of gallons in the tank when we have driven 0 miles.

Number of adult tickets sold = Number of child tickets sold =

Answers

Given:

Total ticket = 321

Total collection = $3535

Adult ticket price = $15

Child ticket price = $5

Find-:

(1)

Number of adult tickets sold

(2)

Number of child tickets sold

Explanation-:

Let the number of adult tickets = x

Let the number of child tickets = y

If the total ticket is 321 then,

[tex]x+y=321........................(1)[/tex]

Price for adult ticket is:

[tex]=15x[/tex]

The price for child ticket is:

[tex]=5y[/tex]

total price is $3535 then,

[tex]15x+5y=3535...................(2)[/tex]

From eq(1)

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=321 \\ \\ 5x+5y=1605..............(3) \end{gathered}[/tex]

So eq(2) - eq(3) is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} (15x+5y)-(5x+5y)=3535-1605 \\ \\ 15x-5x+5y-5y=1930 \\ \\ 15x-5x=1930 \\ \\ 10x=1930 \\ \\ x=\frac{1930}{10} \\ \\ x=193 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Put the value in eq(1) then,

[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=321 \\ \\ 193+y=321 \\ \\ y=321-193 \\ \\ y=128 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So,

Number of adult tickets = 193

Number of child tickets = 128

First we have to find the missing angle on each case.

In the first triangle we have

How do we determine the number of hours each family used the sprinklers?

Answers

Given:

The output rate of Martinez family's sprinkler is 25L per hour and Green family's sprinkler is 35L per hour. The combined usage of sprinkler is 40 hours. The resulting water output is 1250L.

To find:

The number of hours each family used the sprinkler.

Solution:

Let Martinez family used sprinkler for x hours and Green family used sprinkler for y hours.

Since the combined usage of sprinklers is 40 hours. So,

[tex]x+y=40...\left(i\right)[/tex]

The output rate of Martinez family's sprinkler is 25L per hour and Green family's sprinkler is 35L per hour. The resulting water output is 1250L. So,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 25x+35y=1250 \\ 5x+7y=250...\left(ii\right) \end{gathered}[/tex]

Multiply (i) by 7 and subtract from (ii), to get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 5x+7y-7\left(x+y\right)=250-7\left(40\right) \\ 5x+7y-7x-7y=250-280 \\ -2x=-30 \\ x=\frac{-30}{-2} \\ x=15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, we get x = 15, Put x = 15 in the equation (i):

[tex]\begin{gathered} 15+y=40 \\ y=40-15 \\ y=25 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, x = 15, y = 25.

Express the repeating decimal 0.2 as a fraction

Answers

Answer:

The fraction form of the repeating decimal is;

[tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex]

Explanation:

We want to express the repeating decimal 0.2 (2 repeating) as a fraction.

let x represent the fraction;

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=0.2222\ldots \\ 10x=2.222\ldots \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then subtract x from 10x;

[tex]\begin{gathered} 10x-x=2.222\ldots-0.222\ldots \\ 9x=2.0 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Then we can divide both sides by the coefficient of x;

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{9x}{9}=\frac{2}{9} \\ x=\frac{2}{9} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the fraction form of the repeating decimal is;

[tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex]

STEP 2: Find the mean ofthe data

[tex]\begin{gathered} The\:arithemtic\:mean\:\left(average\right)\:is\:the\:sum\:of\:the\:values\:in\:the\:set\:divided\:by\:the\:number\:of\:elements\:in\:that\:set. \\ \mathrm{If\:our\:data\:set\:contains\:the\:values\:}a_1,\:\ldots \:,\:a_n\mathrm{\:\left(n\:elements\right)\:then\:the\:average}=\frac{1}{n}\sum _{i=1}^na_i\: \\ Sum=169.8 \\ n=12 \\ mean=\frac{169.8}{12} \\ mean=14.15 \end{gathered}[/tex]

STEP 3: Find the median

[tex]\begin{gathered} \mathrm{The\:median\:is\:the\:value\:separating\:the\:higher\:half\:of\:the\:data\:set,\:from\:the\:lower\:half.} \\ \:the\:number\:of\:terms\:is\:odd,\:then\:the\:median\:is\:the\:middle\:element\:of\:the\:sorted\:set \\ If\:the\:number\:of\:terms\:\:is\:even,\:then\:the\:median\:is\:the\:arithmetic\:mean\:of\:the\:two\:middle\:elements\:of\:the\:sorted\:set \\ \\ \mathrm{Arrange\:the\:terms\:in\:ascending\:order} \\ 3.2,\:4.8,\:5.9,\:7.6,\:8.4,\:10,\:14.5,\:14.9,\:21.1,\:21.2,\:28.7,\:29.5 \\ median=12.25 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, it can be seen here that the mean is larger than median.

The profit of a cell-phone manufacturer is found by the function y= -2x2 + 108x + 75 , where x is the cost of the cell phone. At what price should the manufacturer sell the phone tomaximize its profits? What will the maximum profit be?

Answers

Hello!

First, let's rewrite the function:

[tex]y=-2x^2+108x+75[/tex]

Now, let's find each coefficient of it:

• a = -2

,

• b = 108

,

• c = 75

As we have a < 0, the concavity of the parabola will face downwards.

So, it will have a maximum point.

To find this maximum point, we must obtain the coordinates of the vertex, using the formulas below:

[tex]\begin{gathered} X_V=-\frac{b}{2\cdot a} \\ \\ Y_V=-\frac{\Delta}{4\cdot a} \end{gathered}[/tex]First, let's calculate the coordinate X by replacing the values of the coefficients:[tex]\begin{gathered} X_V=-\frac{b}{2\cdot a} \\ \\ X_V=-\frac{108}{2\cdot(-2)}=-\frac{108}{-4}=\frac{108}{4}=\frac{54}{2}=27 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, the coordinate x = 27.

Now, let's find the y coordinate:[tex]\begin{gathered} Y_V=-\frac{\Delta}{4\cdot a} \\ \\ Y_V=-\frac{b^2-4\cdot a\cdot c}{4\cdot a} \\ \\ Y_V=-\frac{108^2-4\cdot(-2)\cdot75}{4\cdot(-2)} \\ \\ Y_V=-\frac{11664+600}{-8}=\frac{12264}{8}=1533 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The coordinate y = 1533.

Answer:

The maximum profit will be 1533 (value of y) when x = 27.

The Alternate Interior Angles Theorem: What is it?

According to the alternate interior angles theorem, when a transversal cuts over two (2) parallel lines, the alternate interior angles that are created are congruent.

We can infer and logically derive from the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem that the sentence that correctly concludes the proof is that angle BAC and angle DCA are congruent.

Segment AB is parallel to segment DC, while segment BC is parallel to segment AD, according to the information provided. Create the diagonals A and C using a straight edge. By virtue of the Reflexive Property of Equality, it is congruent to itself.
