A 40-foot rope is cut into 2 pieces. Seven less than four times the length of the longer rope piece x is five times the length of the shorter piece, which is (40 − x) ft. Find the length of the longer rope piece x (in ft). (Enter an exact number.)

Answers

Answer 1

If a 40-foot rope is cut into 2 pieces.  the length of the longer rope piece x  is 23ft.

How to find the length?

Seven less than 4 times = 4x-7

4x-7=5(40-x)

4x-7=200-5x

Collect like terms

9x=207

Divide both side by 9x

x = 207 /9

x=23 ft  (longer part of the rope)

Shorter part of the rope

40-x where x is 23

40 -23

= 17ft

Therefore the longer part is 23ft.

explain how the value of a digit changes if the digit moves one place to the right or left.

Answers

When talking about a number line, the farther right the digit moves, the large the number. The farther left it goes, the smaller the number.

For example, 81 would be to the right of 80. And 79 would be on the left. The larger the negative number, the smaller it is. So -70 is smaller than -20.

The time it takes to cover the distance between two cities by car varies inversely with the speed of the car.

The trip takes 7 hours for a car moving at 36 mph.

What is the speed of a car that makes the trip in 9 hours?

Answers

Answer:

  28 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a car moving 36 mph takes 7 hours for a trip, you want to know the speed if the trip takes 9 hours.

Time and Speed

The speed and time vary inversely for the same distance. If the time goes up by a factor of 9/7, the speed will go down by the inverse factor: 7/9.

  7/9 × 36 mph = 28 mph

The speed of the car is 28 mph for the 9-hour trip.

PLSS HELPPPP

Answers

The difference in the cost of all 30 pens between two shops is,

£1.05

Given, Eve is going to buy 30 pens from either shop A or shop B.

Shop A: pack of 10 pens for £2

Shop B: pack of 5 for £1.10 buy 1 pack and get 1 half price.

So, the cost of 30 pens from the shop A is,

as, a pack of 10 pens is of £2

1 pen = 2/10

30 pens = £6

Now, the cost of 30 pens from the shop B is,

as, a pack of 5 for £1.10

1 pen = 1.10/5 = £0.22

also buy 1 and get 1 at half price.

So, 2 pens = 0.22 + 0.11 = £0.33

Therefore, 30 pens = £4.95

So, the cost of 30 pens from shop A is £6 and from shop B is £4.95.

Hence, the difference in the cost of all 30 pens between two shops is,

What are all the real and complex solutions of x3 + 2x2 + 36x = –72? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

The roots of the equation x³ + 2x² + 36x + 72 = 0 are ( -2 , -6i , +6i )

What is Factorizing?

Brackets should be expanded in the following ways:

For an expression of the form a(b + c), the expanded version is ab + ac, i.e., multiply the term outside the bracket by everything inside the bracket

For an expression of the form (a + b)(c + d), the expanded version is ac + ad + bc + bd, in other words everything in the first bracket should be multiplied by everything in the second.

Given data ,

Let the equation be x³ + 2x² + 36x = -72

Adding 72 on both sides , we get

x³ + 2x² + 36x + 72 = 0

Now , on simplifying we get

Take the common factor x² in first two terms and 36 in last two terms

So ,

x² ( x + 2 ) + 36 ( x + 2 ) = 0

Now , taking ( x + 2 ) as common factor , we get

( x² + 36 ) ( x + 2 ) = 0

So , for the equation to be 0 , either ( x + 2 ) = 0 or ( x² + 36 ) =0

And , we can find the solutions to the equation as

x + 2 = 0

Subtracting 2 on both sides , we get

x = -2

So , one solution is -2

Now ,

( x² + 36 ) =0

Subtracting 36 on both sides , we get

x² = -36

x = √ ( -36 )

x = ± 6i

So , we got two more solutions as -6i and +6i

Hence , the roots of the equation are -2 , -6i and +6i

[tex](x,y)=\left(\; \boxed{-5,0}\; \right)\; \textsf{(larger $x$-value)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{4 cm}\underline{Equation of a circle}\\\\$(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $(a, b)$ is the center. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $r$ is the radius.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

The points that are a distance of 5 units from P(-8, 4) will be all the points on the circumference of a circle with center (-8, 4) and radius 5.

Substitute the center and radius into the formula to create an equation of the circle:

[tex]\implies (x+8)^2+(y-4)^2=25[/tex]

The y-value of any point on the x-axis is zero.

Therefore, to find the points on the x-axis that are 5 units from point P, substitute y = 0 into the equation of the circle and solve for x:

[tex]\implies (x+8)^2+(0-4)^2=25[/tex]

[tex]\implies (x+8)^2+(-4)^2=25[/tex]

[tex]\implies (x+8)^2+16=25[/tex]

[tex]\implies (x+8)^2+16-16=25-16[/tex]

[tex]\implies (x+8)^2=9[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sqrt{(x+8)^2}=\sqrt{9}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x+8=\pm3[/tex]

[tex]\implies x+8-8=\pm3-8[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=-8\pm3[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=-11, x=-5[/tex]

Therefore:

Answers

Every second, 44 megabytes of files will be transferred to her hard drive.

The size of the files on her external hard drive in megabytes is given F, where F = 38 + 6t and t is the time in seconds since the transfer began.

The function is below

F = 38 + 6t   ....(i)

To determine the number of megabytes of files transferred to her hard drive every second

Substitute the value of t = 1 in the equation (i), and solve for F

F = 38 + 6(1)

F = 38 + 6

F = 44

A function that returns the initial value for which a function has produced an output is known as an inverse function. If f(x) is a function that produces the value y, then [tex]f^{-1}(y)[/tex] the inverse function of y, will provide the value x.

The function's inverse, represented by ,  [tex]f^{-1}[/tex] returns the original value that was used to create the output (x).

Given function is  y = x² + 4x + 4

To find the inverse function, we need to express x as a function of y:

Substract x from the above equation we get,

Answers

According to the growth function, the population be in 2050 will be 10,635

Growth function:

The growth function refers the pattern of data that shows greater  increases with passing time, creating the curve of an exponential  function.

Given,

In 1965, the population of a certain town was 2010. In 1995, the population was 3620.

Here we need to find the population in 2050.

While we looking into the given problem, let us consider,

P refers the final population

A refers the the starting population, and

x refers the time passed

Now,  we need to determine the value of the growth factor n and it can be calculated using the information for the years 1965 and 2010.

Here we know that, in 1965, the population of a certain town was 2010. In 1995, the population was 3620.

And the value of x is 30

So, it can be written as,

=> 3620 = 2010eⁿˣ³⁰

=> 3620/2010  = e³⁰ⁿ

=> 362/201 = e³⁰ⁿ

Here by applying ln to both sides of the equation:

⇒ln(362/201) = ln(e³⁰ⁿ)

By, using the laws of logarithms:

=> 30n = ln(362) - ln(201)

=> n = [ln(362) - ln(201)] / 30

=> n = 0.0196

Here we have to use this information to determine P in 2050.

Here the value of A will still be 2010, but x will be 85 years.

Here we have to apply these values then we get,

=> P = 2010e⁰°⁰¹⁹⁶ˣ⁸⁵

=> P = 2010e¹°⁶⁶⁶

=> P = 2010 x 5.2909

=> P = 10635

Therefore, there are 10635 in 2050.
