Jack wants to model a situation where the perimeter of the rectangle to the right is 6 feet plus or minus 1.5 feet. Because he is modeling a length​ "plus or​ minus" another​ length, he decides to use an absolute value equation for his model. Do you agree with his​ decision? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer 1

The absolute value of the equation will not work because the value of x would have to be negative for the perimeter to be 6 ft plus or minus 1.5 ft.

What is the perimeter of the rectangle?

The perimeter of the rectangle is given as:

Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 6 feet plus or minus 1.5 feet.

So, we have:

Perimeter = 2(Length + Breadth) =  6 feet ± 1.5 feet.

Then  Substitute values for length and width

2(Length + Breadth) =  6 feet ± 1.5 feet.

2(4 + x) =  6 feet ± 1.5 feet.

Now,

2(4 + x) =  6 feet + 1.5 feet.

8 + 2x = 6.5 ft

2x = 6.5 - 8

x = -0.25 ft

2(4 + x) =  6 feet - 1.5 feet.

8 + 2x = 4.5 ft

2x = 4.5 - 8

x = -1.75ft

Here Both values of x are negative.

This means that the absolute value model can't work, because a rectangle cannot have a negative dimension.

Mira has breakfast at a restaurant she leaves a 20% tip of $1.80 what is the price of breakfast before the tip

Answers

♡ Answer ♡

$9

♡ Step-by-step explanation ♡

  In the problem, it states that Mira leaves a $1.80 tip. At the same time, it is also mentioned that the tip is 20% of the price of breakfast before it. This means that $1.80 is 20% of the price of breakfast before the tip. In order to figure out the price of breakfast before the tip, we must take the 20% tip and make it into 100%. This 100% will be equivalent to the price of breakfast (before the tip).

  To transform 20% into 100%, we must multiply by 5. Therefore, to find the price of breakfast before the tip, we must multiply $1.80 by 5. When we do this, we discover that $1.80*5 is $9. $9 is 100% of the price of breakfast before the tip.

  So, the price of breakfast before the tip is $9.

A quality standard says that no more than 2 percent of the eggs sold in a store may be cracked. In 3 cartons (12 eggs each carton) 2 eggs are cracked.

Answers

Answer:

The quality standard is violated.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3 cartons of eggs no more than 2% are crack.

Let's find out how many eggs are in the 3 cartons.

(3)(12) = 36

There are 36 eggs in all 3 cartons. To find how many are supposedly cracked we need to multiply 36 by the decimal for of 2%.

To change a percent to decimal form we move the decimal of the percent twice to the left. So 2% turns in to .02.

Now, multiply:

(36)(.02) = 0.72

Not even 1 egg in all 3 batches should be cracked.

Therefore, the quality standard has been violated.

In order for the quality standard to be upheld there would have to be 100 eggs and only 2 of them be cracked.

I hope this helps!!

Show that f '(x) = g'(x) for all x in their domains. Can we conclude from the corollary below that f − g is constant? If f '(x) = g'(x) for all x in an interval (a, b), then f − g is constant on (a, b); that is, f(x) = g(x) + c where c is a constant.

Answers

Answer:

Answer: 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The derivative of a function at a point can be defined as its slope at that point. For f'(x) = g'(x) in the interval (a,b), it is proved that f - g is constant in (a,b).

What is a Derivative?

A derivative of a function is its rate change of increase or decrease in a given interval with respect to its variable. Derivative of a constant function is always zero.

Given that, f'(x) = g'(x) for all x.

Taking integral on both sides

f(x) + C₁ = g(x) + C₂

=> f(x) - g(x) = C₂ - C₁

=> f(x) - g(x) = C

Thus, f(x) - g(x) is constant is proved.

Similarly for interval an interval (a,b),

f(x) - g(x) = C

=> f(x)= g(x) + C

Hence, it is proved that in an interval (a,b), if  f'(x) = g'(x) then f(x)= g(x) + C.

40, 10, 5/2 5/8... (fractions) is it arithmetic or geometric and what are the next two terms PLZ HELP DUE IN 10 MINS

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence

[tex]40,\:10,\:\frac{5}{2},\:\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by

[tex]\:a_n=a_0\cdot r^{n-1}[/tex]

Computing the ratios of all the adjacent terms

[tex]\frac{10}{40}=\frac{1}{4},\:\quad \frac{\frac{5}{2}}{10}=\frac{1}{4},\:\quad \frac{\frac{5}{8}}{\frac{5}{2}}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

The ratio of all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to

[tex]r=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Thus, the given sequence is a geometric sequence.

As the first element of the sequence is

[tex]a_1=40[/tex]

Therefore, the nth term is calculated as

[tex]\:a_n=a_0\cdot r^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_n=40\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]

Put n = 5 to find the next term

[tex]a_5=40\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{5-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_5=40\cdot \frac{1}{4^4}[/tex]

[tex]a_5=\frac{40}{4^4}[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{2^3\cdot \:5}{2^8}[/tex]

[tex]a_5=\frac{5}{2^5}[/tex]

[tex]a_5=\frac{5}{32}[/tex]

now, Put n = 6 to find the 6th term

[tex]a_6=40\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{6-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_6=40\cdot \frac{1}{4^5}[/tex]

[tex]a_6=\frac{40}{4^5}[/tex]

    [tex]=\frac{2^3\cdot \:5}{2^{10}}[/tex]

[tex]a_6=\frac{5}{2^7}[/tex]

[tex]a_6=\frac{5}{128}[/tex]

Thus, the next two terms of the sequence 40, 10, 5/2, 5/8... is:

[tex]a_5=\frac{5}{32}[/tex][tex]a_6=\frac{5}{128}[/tex]

In order to use the MVT, the function must be continuous over the given interval.

Use the fact that 1 inch = 2.54 centimeters to convert 10 yards to centimeters. Round to the nearest tenth

Answers

From unit conversion, it was found that 10 yards = 914.4 cm.

Unit Conversion

The unit of a length is essential information. There are different units for the length. In the International System Units (SI), the standard unit for length is the meter (m).  Nonetheless, there are others units, for example: inches (in) and  yard (yd).

1 in = 2.54 cm

1 yd = 36 in

The question asks the conversion 10 yards to centimeters. Therefore, you should know the relation between the units  for solving this question.

First, you will convert 10 yards to inches. Thus,

1 yd  -------- 36 in

10 yd ------- x in

x=36*10

x=360 in

After that, you should find the value in centimeters .

1 in      --------  2.54 cm

360 in --------- x cm

x=360*2.54

x= 914.4 cm
