This is the problem I am having.

Let's call C the weight of the Cashews and B the weight of the Brazil nuts.

Since the professor wants to sel a 32 pound mixture, we have the following equation:

Now, since the price of the mixture will be $5.37 per pound, this means the price of the whole mixture will be

This leads us to the followin equation:

Now we have a system of equations:

To solve it, let's isolate one of the variables in the first equation by subtracting B from both sides of it:

Now, let's use this value of C in the second equation:

To solve this equation, let's subtract 198.4 from both sides of it:

Then, let's divide both sides by -1.9:

Using this value of B in the first equation will give us:

These would be the values of B and C round to two decimals. If we want, we can also write them as integer numbers. so the mix would need to have 18 pounds of cashews and 14 pounds of Brazil nuts.

The coordinate pair is between the third and fourth quadrants, on the y-axis.

Remember that the quadrants are:

First quadrant: x > 0, y > 0.

Second quadrant: x < 0, y > 0.

Third quadrant: x < 0, y < 0.

Fourth quadrant: x > 0, y < 0.

In this case our coordinate pair is (0, -1/2).

So it will be between the third and fourth quadrants.

Jake's weekly rate of eating of cake slices is 11.6

Given,

Number of equal slices of cake = 12

Number of slices Jake eaten after 3 days = 5

We have to find the weekly rate of eating;

Here,

Number of days in a week = 7

Jake eaten 5 slices in 3 days so, 7 - 3 = 4

Again after 3 days 5 slices.

Then,

4 - 3 = 1

That is, Jake eaten 10 slices of cake in 6 days.

Number of cake slices eaten in 1 day = 5/3 = 1.6

Therefore,

Weekly rate of eating is 10 + 1.6 = 11.6

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting from tan x, you can find sec x, because of the trigonometric identity 1 + tan2 x = sec2 x.

1 + (-4/3)2 = 1 + 16/9 = 25/9 = sec2 x.

So sec x = ±√(25/9) = ±5/3.  But since x is in Quadrant II, sec x has to be negative.  That's because sec x has the same sign as cos x, because sec x = 1 / cos x.  We know that cos x is negative is Quadrant II, therefore so is sec x.  So sec x = -5/3.

Since sec x and cos x are reciprocals of each other, cos x = 1/sec x = -3/5.

Now use the identity sin2 x + cos2 x = 1, to find sin x:

sin2 x + (-3/5)2 = 1

sin2 x + 9/25 = 1

sin2 x = 16/25

sin x = ±4/5

Again, we know that sin x is positive in Quadrant II, so sin x = 4/5.

Now that we know sin x and cos x, we can use the double angle formulas to find sin 2x and cos 2x.

sin 2x = 2 sin x cos x = 2 (4/5) (-3/5) = -24/25

cos 2x = cos2 x - sin 2 x = (-3/5)2 - (4/5)2 = 9/25 - 16/25 = -7/25

Finally use the identity tan x = sin x / cos x to find tan 2x:

tan 2x = sin 2x / cos 2x = (-24/25) / (-7/25) = -24/-7 = 24/7

The values in Manu’s list of rational roots he should try in the synthetic division, in light of these findings is

"Manu should try first +1/4,+1/2 and +1."

This is further explained below.

Generally, Because the lower and higher bonds are located between -6 and 1, Manu should have only analyzed the potential rational zeros that fall between those two numbers.

A lower bond indicates that the feasible rational zero cannot be lower than -6, and therefore the higher number that may be achieved cannot be more than 1.

In this manner, Manu will get an opportunity to test. This approach of rationalization based on bonds aims to reduce the number of potential solutions.

Therefore, if Manu discovers through the synthetic division that the possible roots are +1/4,+1/2,+1,+5/4,+2,+5/2,+4,+5,+10,+20, then he should only consider those inside the intervals marked by the lower and upper bounds, which are +1/4,+1/2,+1, because the rest is greater than 1. This is because the rest of the possible roots are higher than 1.

From the fundamental theorems of algebra, Manu knows there are 3 roots to the equation. From Descartes' rule of sign, Manu finds no sign changes in p(x) and 3 sign changes in p(-x). The rational root theorem yields +1/4,+1/2,+1,+5/4,+2,+5/2,+4,+5,+10,+20 as a list of possible rational roots. The lower bound of the polynomial is -6. The upper bound of the polynomial is 1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the change in y over the change in x

[tex]\frac{y_{2 - y_{1} } }{x_{2 - y_{1} } }[/tex]

(-2,4) is ([tex]x_{1}[/tex], [tex]y_{1}[/tex])

(3. -4) is ([tex]x_{2}[/tex],[tex]y_{2}[/tex])

[tex]\frac{-4 - 4}{3 - -2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-8}{3+ 2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-8}{5}[/tex]

Answer:

-8 / 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = ( -4 -4)/( 3 - -2)

   = -8/ ( 3+2)

Since y is a parabolla, there will be two values for y = 19. We already know that x = 1 is one value, to find the other, we can substitute y = 19 on the equation and solve for x to get the following:

Answer:

  (d)  Isosceles right

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the classification of a triangle with angles 45°-45°-90°.

The largest angle is 90°, a right angle. Any triangle containing a right angle is a right triangle.

Two of the angles have the same measure. This means the triangle is an isosceles triangle.

The triangle is classified as an isosceles right triangle.

__

Additional comment

A triangle whose largest angle is less than 90° is an acute triangle. If the largest angle is greater than 90°, it is an obtuse triangle.

If no sides are the same length, the triangle is scalene. If two sides are the same length, the triangle is isosceles. If all three sides are the same length, it is an equilateral triangle.

Larger angles are opposite longer sides, so if angles are the same, their opposite sides are the same.

It can be worthwhile to remember that the side length ratios in an isosceles right triangle are 1 : 1 : √2.

In order to find the center of the circunscribed circle, we can use the midpoint theorem because the center point is in the middle of any two vertices

that is, if we take points (9,23) and (8,16) the midpoint C is given as

which gives

So the center of the circle is the point (8.5,19.5)

On the other hand, the radius is equal to the distance from any vertex to the center. If we take the vertex (8,16), we get

which gives

so, the radius measure 3.54 units.

Now, lets prove that the answer are correct. In order to do that, we can choose the other vertices and apply the same procedure as above.

So the vertices are (5,20) and (12,19). Again, the center is the midpoint between these points and is given as

which is the same center as above.

Now, the distance from the center to vertec (5,20) is

which is the same radius obtained above. Then, the answers are correct.

The value of (x) that satisfy the equation → - 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33) is x = - 33.

An equation is a mathematical statement with an 'equal to' symbol between two expressions that have equal values.

Given is the following equation -

- 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33)

The given equation is -

- 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33)

Simplifying for (x), we get -

- 3 - 23x = - 14x + 294 - 15x - 495

- 23x + 14x + 15x = 3 + 294 - 495

6x = - 198

x = - 33

Therefore, the value of (x) that satisfy the equation → - 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33) is x = - 33.
