Mike and Andy are each reading the same book mike reads 2\4 of the book on Tuesday and 1\3 of the book on Wednesday Andy reads 1\2 of the book on Tuesday and 1\5 of the book on Wednesday Andy says that all together he reads more of the book on Tuesday and Wensday then mike

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Andy's claim is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mike:

[tex]Tuesday = \frac{2}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Wednesday = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Andy:

[tex]Tuesday = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Wednesday = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Required

Is Andy correct?

First, we need to calculate the fraction of book read by Mike.

[tex]Mike = \frac{2}{4} + \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Mike = \frac{6+4}{12}[/tex]

[tex]Mike = \frac{10}{12}[/tex]

Convert to decimal

[tex]Mike = 0.833\\[/tex]

Next, we perform the same calcuation for Andy

[tex]Andy = \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Andy = \frac{5+2}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Andy = \frac{7}{10}[/tex]

Convert to decimal

[tex]Andy = 0.70[/tex]

Andy's claim that he read more of the book is incorrect because 0.833 (for Mike) is greater than 0.70 (for Andy)

Austin swam 1.4 laps each minute. Ashley is Austin's older sister. She trains in the same pool and can swim 9 laps in 6 minutes. Is Ashley a faster swimmer than Austin? Question - how can you use the unit rate in minutes per lap to compare Ashley's speed to Austin?

Answers

Answer: Asley is faster than Austin.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Austin swam 1.4 laps each minute.

Asley's sister can swim 9 laps in 6 minutes.

i.e. the number of laps she can swim in each minute = [tex]\dfrac96 = 1.5[/tex]

1.5 > 1.4, i.e. Asley swim more laps than Austin in a minute.

Hence, Asley is faster than Austin.

In mintues per lap, speed of Austin = [tex]\dfrac1{1.4}=0.71\text{ minute per lap}[/tex]

Speed of Ashley = [tex]\dfrac{6}{9}=0.67\text{ minute per lap}[/tex]

Ashley took lesser time then austin per lap.

Hence, Ashley is faster than Austin.

an = 3.5 +2.8 (n-1)
f(n) =

Answers

Answer:

f(n) = 2.8n + 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear function is f(x) = m x + b, where

x is the inputf(x) is the output

Let us solve the question

∵ The rule of the arithmetic sequence is a[tex]_{n}[/tex] = 3.5 + 2.8(n - 1), where

a[tex]_{n}[/tex] is the nth term ⇒ outputn is the number of the term ⇒ input

→ To write it as a function replace a[tex]_{n}[/tex] by f(n)

∵ a[tex]_{n}[/tex] = f(n)

f(n) = 3.5 + 2.8(n - 1)

→ Simplify the right side to make it in the form of the function above

∵ f(n) = 3.5 + 2.8(n) + 2.8(-1)

→ Remember (+)(-) = (-)

f(n) = 3.5 + 2.8n - 2.8

→ Add the like terms in the right side

∵ f(n) = 2.8n + (3.5 - 2.8)

f(n) = 2.8n + 0.7

The perimeter of a rectangle is 560 feet. Let X represent the width of the rectangle. Write a quadratic function for the area A of the rectangle in terms of its width.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A(x) = x(280 -x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is given by the formula ...

  P = 2(L +W)

Using the given values, we can solve for the length of the rectangle:

  560 = 2(L +x)

  280 = L +x

  280 -x = L

The area is the product of length and width, so the area is ...

  A = LW

  A(x) = (280 -x)x

Step-by-step explanation:

Its outcome is 1.4 if we subtract from 0.4. However, a fraction of less than 2/5 may be deducted. This means that the outcome still exceeds 1, that's why choice C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fourth degree function is defined as a function with a multiplicity of four. This can be done with any number distinct roots less than or equal to four. If the three distinct roots given must be the only roots, we can choose any of the roots to square and make the function a fourth degree polynomial. Otherwise, we can add another root to make a fourth degree polynomial. Either way, it's possible.

an ice sculture measures 52 inches and melts continuously by 3% per minute. find the height of a sculpture after 15 minutes

Answers

Answer:

28.6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

3 percent of 52 is 1.56 so it is melting at a rate of 1.56 inches per minute

15x1.56 is 23.4

52-23.4=28.6 so after 15 minutes the sculpture will be only 28.6 inches tall

Which of the following is a geometric series? 0.1 + 0.3 + 0.5 + 0.7 1 + 3 + 9 + 27 19 + 17 + 15 + 13 0.4 + 0.9 + 1.5 + 2.2

Answers

The series 1 + 3 + 9 + 27 is a geometric series because the common ratio is 3 option second is correct.

What is a sequence?

It is defined as the systematic way of representing the data that follows a certain rule of arithmetic.

As we know, the geometric series has a common ratio:

If a, b, c, d, e.....

is in the GP then,

b/a  =  c/b  =  d/c = and so on

We have a series:

0.1 + 0.3 + 0.5 + 0.7

0.3/0.1 ≠ 0.5/0.3

The above sequence is not a geometric series.

1 + 3 + 9 + 27

3/1  =  9/3  = 3

The above sequence is a geometric series.

19 + 17 + 15 + 13

17/19  ≠  15/17

The above sequence is not a geometric series.

0.4 + 0.9 + 1.5 + 2.2

0.9/0.4  ≠  1.5/0.9

The above sequence is not a geometric series.

Thus, the series 1 + 3 + 9 + 27 is a geometric series because the common ratio is 3 option second is correct.

Answer:

a) 7b) -27c) 18d) 8e) 2f) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The limit of any polynomial function at a point is the value of the polynomial at that point. A polynomial is defined and continuous for all values of the independent variable.

The limit of a rational function at a "hole" is the value of the simplified function at that point.

1a) lim = 4+3+2-2 = 7

1b) lim = (3)(-3)(3) = -27

1c) lim = 3^2+9 = 18

1d) lim = (x+4) = 4+4 = 8

1e) lim = 3x+1 = 3(1/3) +1 = 2

1f) lim = x^2/x^2 = 1

_____

The expressions of (e) and (f) can be simplified by factoring the difference of squares: a^2 -b^2 = (a -b)(a +b). In each case, one of the factors cancels the one in the denominator, so the remaining function can be evaluated at the limit point.

As x approaches infinity, the only terms of a rational expression that matter are those of the highest degree in numerator and denominator. (There's a little more to it if the numerator has a higher degree than the denominator.)

(05.05) Which of the following inequalities matches the graph? (1 point)​

Answers

Answer: Choice C.  [tex]y \ge -1[/tex]

==========================================================

Explanation:

The boundary line is a solid line and it's horizontal. Every point on the boundary line has y coordinate -1. So y = -1 is the equation of the boundary line. We can write it as y = 0x-1.

The shading is above the boundary line, so the inequality is [tex]y \ge -1[/tex]

Any point (x,y) in the shaded region has y coordinate that is y = -1 or greater.

For example, the point (0,2) in the shaded region has y coordinate y = 2, and it satisfies the inequality [tex]y \ge -1[/tex] because [tex]2 \ge -1[/tex] is a true statement.

Note: the boundary line is solid, so any point on the boundary line is part of the shaded solution set. This is due to the "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign.
