The water level in a tank measures 15 inches and is decreasing 0.5 inches every minute. How many minutes, x, will it take for the water level to measure 9 inches deep?

This is equivalent to 3/2 as an improper fraction and 1 & 1/2 as a mixed number.

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

Explanation:

x = total distance in miles

The train and monorail take 1/3 and 1/2 of the total distance respectively

Add up those fractions to get

1/3 + 1/2 = 2/6 + 3/6 = 5/6

Remember that you can only add fractions when the denominators are the same.

5/6 of the total distance consists of the train and monorail.

That means the walking portion must be 1 - 5/6 = 6/6 - 5/6 = 1/6 of the total distance.

----------------------------

In short, we found that 1/6 of the total distance consists of walking.

(1/6)x = 1/4 mile

x/6 = 1/4

4x = 6*1

4x = 6

x = 6/4

x = 3/2

x = 1.5 miles is the total distance

---------------------------

Check:

1/6 of x = 1/6 of 3/2 = (1/6)*(3/2) = 3/12 = 1/4 mile walking

1/3 of x = (1/3)*(3/2) = 3/6 = 1/2 mile on the train

1/2 of x = (1/2)*(3/2) = 3/4 of a mile on the monorail

1/4 + 1/2 + 3/4 = 1/4 + 2/4 + 3/4 = 6/4 = 3/2 = 1.5 miles total

This confirms our answer.

If [tex]$f(x)=4^x$[/tex] and [tex]$g(x)=4^{x+1}-3$[/tex] be the two functions then Horizontal translation 1 units right.

An expression, rule, or law in mathematics that establishes the relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable (the dependent variable). In mathematics, functions exist everywhere, and they are crucial for constructing physical links in the sciences.

A function in mathematics from a set X to a set Y allocates exactly one element of Y to each element of X. The sets X and Y are collectively referred to as the function's domain and codomain, respectively.

Let [tex]$f(x)=4^x$[/tex] and [tex]$g(x)=4^{x+1}-3$[/tex]

We can see that in place x , we have x + 1

so, f(x) exists shifted right side by 1 unit

and we can see that 2 exists added to y-value

so, it exists shifted upside by 2 units

horizontal translation 1 unit right

Step-by-step explanation:

given a quadratic in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c (a ≠ 0 )

• if a > o then curve opens up

• if a < 0 then curve opens down

for y = - 2x² + 4x ← in standard form with a = - 2, b = 4 and c = 0

here a = - 2 < 0 so curve opens down

-------------------------------------------------

the axis of symmetry is a vertical line passing through the vertex

the x- coordinate of the vertex, which is also the equation of the axis of symmetry is

x = - [tex]\frac{b}{2a}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{4}{-4}[/tex] = 1

equation of axis of symmetry is x = 1

substitute x = 1 into the equation for y- coordinate of vertex

y = - 2(1)² + 4(1) = - 2 + 4 = 2

vertex = (1, 2 )

-----------------------------------------------------

to find the zeros let y = o , that is

- 2x² + 4x = 0 ← factor out - 2x from each term

- 2x(x - 2) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

- 2x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

the zeros are x = 0 and x = 2

-----------------------------------------------------------

since the graph opens down then it has a maximum value

this is the y- coordinate of the vertex

thus maximum at y = 2

Answer:

its 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

FG = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle between EF ( y- axis) and EH (x- axis) is right

thus the 4 angles in EFGH are right angles meaning the figure is a square.

the sides of a square are congruent , so

GH = FG , that is

3x + 1 = x + 11 ( subtract x from both sides )

2x + 1 = 11 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

2x = 10 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 5

Then

FG = x + 11 = 5 + 11 = 16

The solution of the expression (3/5)v + 3 = (2/5)v - 4 would be v = - 35 which is the correct answer would be option (A).

Algebraic expressions are mathematical statements with a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers.

We have to determine the solution of three-fifths times v plus 3 equals two-fifths times v minus 4.

Translate the phrase into an algebraic expression:

⇒ (3/5)v + 3 = (2/5)v - 4

Rearrange the likewise terms and apply arithmetic operations,

⇒ (3/5)v - (2/5)v  = - 3 - 4

⇒ (1/5)v = - 7

⇒ v =  - 7 × 5

⇒ v = - 35

Therefore, the solution of the expression (3/5)v + 3 = (2/5)v - 4 would be v = - 35.

The initial number of bacteria in a culture is found as 200.

Using the model P = P₀e^(kt),

Where:

P(t) = the amount of bacteria at time t = 2000.

P₀ = initial amount at time t = 0

r = growth rate

t = time (number of periods)

k is the growth constant.

For t = 3 hours.

400 =P₀e^(k*3)    ......eq 1

2000 = P₀e^(k*10)   ......eq 2

Re writing eq 1.

400 = P₀e^(k*3)

as (400/P₀) = [e^k]^3,

Solve for e^k,

∛(400/P₀) = e^k

For eq 2.

2000 = P₀e^(k*10)

Rewrite it as;

(2000/P) = [e^k]^10.  

Substituting ∛(400/P₀) for e^k, we obtain:              

(2000/P₀) =  (400/P₀ )^(10/3)

Solved for P.  

Raise sides by the power of 3, we get:

(2000/P₀)^3 = (400/P₀)^10.

Therefore,

2000^3/  P₀^3  =  400^10/P₀^10

Solve,

2000^3/ 1 =  400^10/P₀^7

Taking reciprocal.

Solving

P₀^7 = 400^10/2000^3

P₀^7 = 1.31 x 10¹⁶

Take the 7th root of both sides;

P₀ = 200.67

Thus, the initial number of bacteria in a culture is found as 200.

⇒ 13 ≤ -5x + 3 ≤ -47

First subtract 3 from all terms,

⇒ 10 ≤ -5x ≤ -50

Divide by 5 on all terms,

⇒ 2 ≤ -x ≤ -10

Multiply with (-1) on all terms, but then the inequality gets reversed as,

⇒ -2 ≥ x ≥ 10
