Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf x=\cfrac{5}{6}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf -\cfrac{5}{6}=-\cfrac{1}{4}-\cfrac{7}{10}x[/tex]

[tex]\sf -\cfrac{1}{4}-\cfrac{7}{10} \; x=-\cfrac{5}{6}[/tex]

Add 1/4 to both sides:-

[tex]\sf -\cfrac{1}{4}-\cfrac{7}{10}x+\cfrac{1}{4}=-\cfrac{5}{6}+\cfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

Simplify:-

[tex]\sf -\cfrac{7}{10}x=-\cfrac{7}{12}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 10:-

[tex]\sf 10\left(-\cfrac{7}{10}x\right)=10\left(-\cfrac{7}{12}\right)[/tex]

Simplify:-

[tex]\sf -7x=-\cfrac{35}{6}[/tex]

Divide both sides by -7:-

[tex]\sf \cfrac{-7x}{-7}=\cfrac{-\cfrac{35}{6}}{-7}[/tex]

Simplify:-

[tex]\sf x=\cfrac{5}{6}[/tex]

Answer:

x = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

→ (-5/6) = (-1/4) - (7/10)x

Now the value of x will be,

→ (-5/6) = (-1/4) - (7/10)x

→ (-7/10)x = (-5/6) + (1/4)

→ (-7/10)x = (-10 + 3)/12

→ x = (-7/12) × (-10/7)

→ x = 10/12

→ [ x = 5/6 ]

Hence, the answer is 5/6.

The equation of the line is y = -x +3

We need to calculate the line which is perpendicular to y = x +4 and passes through the point (1, 2)

The given equation is y = x +4

Comparing this equation with the general equation of the line, y = mx +c, we get the slope of the equation as 1

Now, When two lines are perpendicular to each other, the product of their slopes is -1.

So, the slope of the required equation is -1.

Now, the equation of the line which passes through the points,  and has slope m, is given by

[tex]y - y_{1} = m(x -x_{1} )[/tex]

Putting the values in the general equation, we get,

y - (2) = -1(x - 1 )

y - 2 = -x +1

y = -x +3

The equation of the line is y = -x +3.

Solving the proportion using the multiplication property of equality gives

The both ratio showing fractions of one-fifth on the left hand side of the equation is equal to the right hand side of the equation which have t as the numerator and 3 as the denominator

The fractions will be solves by cross multiplying as below

1/5 = t/3

5 * t = 3 * 1

5t = 3

dividing through by 5

5t / 5 = 3 / 5

t = 3/5

plugging in t back to the initial equation gives

1/5 = t/3

1/5 = 3/5 / 3

1/5 = 1/5

What is the largest y-value that satisfies this system?

1/2(x-3)(x-2)=y

2(x-1/2)=y

Step-by-step explanation:

the first one has a binomial times a binomial which you have to do the generic rectangle if you did you would get

x² - 5x + 6 = y you keep parenthesis and the 1/2 and bring down to get

1/2(x² - 5x + 6) = y then distribute

1/2x² - 5/2 + 3 = y

2(x - 1/2) = y the distribute and get

2x - 1 = y

so the first one has the largest y-value

The expression (3⁴)² in repeated multiplication is (3⁴) * (3⁴)

From the question. the expression is given as

(3⁴)²

The task is that we rewrite the expression as products i.e. repeated multiplication

This in other words means that:

We rewrite the (3⁴)² as repeated multiplication

To do this, we apply the exponent rule of indices

This rule states that:

a^m = a * a * a .... in m places

So, we have

(3⁴)² = (3⁴) * (3⁴)

The weight of each of his checked bags will be; 15.5 kg.

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Given that; Number of checked bags = 2

Backpack weight = 4 kg

The total weight of Carl's baggage 35kg

Let w be the weight of each checked bag.

Weight of 2 checked bags = 2w

It can be found as; Weight of 2 checked bags + Backpack weight =  Total weight of Carl's baggage

Then;

2w + 4 = 35

Subtract 4 from both sides;

2w + 4 = 35

2w  = 31

Divide 2 from both sides;

w = 15.5

Answer:

  x ∈ {2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the positive integer solutions of ||x²-2x|-|3x-20|| = |x²+x-20|.

Each of the absolute value functions has turning points where the argument is zero. Those turning points are ...

  x²-2x   ⇒   x(x-2) = 0   ⇒   turning points at x=0 and x=2

  3x-20   ⇒   x -20/3 = 0   ⇒   turning point at x=20/3

  x²+x-20   ⇒   (x+5)(x-4) = 0   ⇒   turning points at x=-5 and x=4

In numerical order, the turning points are ...

  x ∈ {-5, 0, 2, 4, 20/3}

These divide the domain of the equation into 6 intervals. Since we are concerned only with positive integer solutions, we are only interested in the intervals ...

  [0, 2), [2, 4), [4, 20/3), [20/3, ∞)

In this domain, x²-2x < 0, 3x-20 < 0, and x²+x-20 < 0. This means the equation becomes ...

  |-(x² -2x) +(3x -20)| = -(x² +x -20)

The difference in the absolute value bars is negative, so we get the equation ...

  -(-x² +2x +3x -20) = -x² -x +20

  2x² -4x = 0 . . . . . . . add x²+x+20

  x = 0 . . . . . x = 2 is not in the domain

There are no positive integer solutions in this domain.

In this domain, x²-2x > 0, 3x-20 < 0, and x²+x-20 < 0. This means the equation becomes ...

  |(x² -2x) +(3x -20)| = -(x² +x -20)

The difference in the absolute value bars is negative, so we get the equation ...

  -(x² -2x +3x -20) = -x² -x +20

  0 = 0 . . . . . . . . . . . . add x² +x -20

  2 ≤ x < 4 . . . . . . . . all x-values in the domain are solutions

The positive integer solutions are x = 2, x = 3.

In this domain, x²-2x > 0, 3x-20 < 0, and x²+x-20 > 0. This means the equation becomes ...

  |(x² -2x) +(3x -20)| = x² +x -20

The difference in the absolute value bars is positive, so we get the equation ...

  (x² -2x +3x -20) = x² +x -20

  0 = 0 . . . . . . . subtract x² +x -20

  4 ≤ x < 6 2/3 . . . . . . . . . all values of x in the domain are solutions

The positive integer solutions are x = 4, x = 5, x = 6.

In this domain, x²-2x > 0, 3x-20 > 0, and x²+x-20 > 0. This means the equation becomes ...

  |(x² -2x) -(3x -20)| = x² +x -20

The difference in the absolute value bars is positive, so we get the equation ...

  x² -2x -3x +20 = x² +x -20

  -6x +40 = 0 . . . . . . . subtract x² +x -20

  x = 6 2/3 . . . . . . . add 6x, divide by 6

There are no positive integer solutions in this domain.

Two number cubes, each of which has its faces numbered from 1 to 6 is rolled.

The cubes will be rolled and the sum of the numbers landing face up will be recorded.

The total sample space for two cubes = 6² = 36

Let the event E represent the event of rolling a sum of 5

Total possible outcomes for a sum of 6 is (1, 4) (2,3) (3,2) (4, 1)

(x₁ , y₁) and (x₂, y₂) with slope m is defined as;

⇒ y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

Where, m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Given that;

Two points on the line are (2, 0) and (0, -1).

Now,

Since, The equation of line passes through the points (2, 0) and (0, -1).

So, We need to find the slope of the line.

a)

It is given that we need to consider the length of the square side to be x ft and the height to be h ft.

The volume of any cuboid

= Length X breadth X height

Here,

length = breadth = x ft

height is h ft.

Volume id 4 ft³

Hence,

x²h = 4

or, h = 4/x²

b)

Since this is a box for the kitten to sleep in, it cannot have any lid.

Hence it will have one square side of area x²  and 4 rectangular sides each of area xh

h = 4/x²

Hence,

xh = 4/x

The square bottom costs $7 per ft and the sides cost $4 per sq. ft

Hence cost to make the box

= 7x² + 4 X 4/x

= 7x² + 16/x

Hence, C(x) = 7x² + 16/x

c)

Here,

C(x) = 7x² + 16/x

Hence, to minimize the cost we will equate its first-order derivative with 0 to get

C'(x)= 0

or, 14x - 16/x² = 0

or, 14x³ - 16 = 0

or, 14x³ = 16

or, x³ = 16/14

Using the formula of speed, the speed of first trains is 45 mph and the speed of second train is 60 mph.

In the given question, we have to find the speed of each.

Two trains going in opposite directions leave at the same time.

One train tavels 15 mph faster than the other.

In 6 hours the trains are 630 miles apart.

Let the speed of the first vehicle be s mph, then according to the question, the speed of the second vehicle would be (s+15) mph.

Let the first vehicle covers the distance D(1) and the second one D(2) in the prescribed time.

So, find the distance covered by the first vehicle in 6 hours by using the formula

Distance = Speed × Time

So the distance D(1) is;

D(1) = s*6

D(1) = 6s

So the distance D(2) is;

D(2) = (s+15)*6

D(2) = 6s+90

Since, after 6 hours both the vehicles are at the distance 630 miles. So, the sum of the two distances D(1) and D(2) will be equal to 630.

D(1)+D(2) = 630

Puttimg the value of D(1) and D(2)

6s+6s+90=630

Simplifying

12s+90=630

Subtract 90 on both side we get

12s=540

Divide by 12 on both side we get

s=45 mph

So the value of speed of the faster vehicle

s+15 = 45+15

s+15 = 60 mph

Hence, the speed of first train is 45 mph and the speed of second train is 60 mph.
