Use slopes and y-intercepts to determine if the lines 10x+3y=−3 and 5x−4y=−3 are parallel.

Answers

Answer:

They are not parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

original equation

10x + 3y = -3

subtract 10x

3y = -10x - 3

divide by 3

y = -10/3x - 1

original equation

5x - 4y = -3

subtract 5x

-4y = -5x-3

divide by -4

y = 5/4x + 3/4

the slopes are not equal to each other (5/4x and -10/3x) so they are not parallel

The function represents the weekly weed growth f(x) = 86(1.01)^7x; They grow at approximately the rate of 1% per day.

What is a function?

The function is a type of relation, or rule, that maps one input to specific single output.

The following function represents the weekly weed growth:

f(x) = 86(1.08)x.

we'll represent the growth function by day g(x). If x is to represent days, then x/7 represents weeks.

We can write,

 g(x) = f(x/7) = 86·1.08^(x/7)

 g(x) = 86·(1.08^(1/7))^x

 g(x) = 86·1.011055^x

The function represents the weekly weed growth f(x) = 86(1.01)^7x; They grow at approximately the rate of 1% per day.

F(x)=x^2.what is g(x) ?

Answers

Answer:

Option C.  [tex]g(x)=(\frac{1}{3}x)^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Stretch transformations of functionsIn which direction is the transformation happening?

Given a function to start with, extra operations that are done outside of the given function, cause vertical transformations, whereas operations that are done inside of the function cause horizontal transformations.

Transformations on the outside

Ex. [tex]g(x)=(x^2)-3[/tex]  is subtracting 3 outside, so its transformation is vertical.

Transformations on the inside

Ex. [tex]g(x)=(x-7)^2[/tex] is subtracting 7 inside, so its transformation is horizontal.

Stretch/compression transformations

For any function, stretches or compressions occur by multiplying by positive numbers larger or smaller than 1.

Multiplying by numbers larger than one, quantities get larger, and multiplying by a positive number less than one, quantities get smaller.

For example, [tex]\$10*2 = \$20[/tex], but [tex]\$10*\frac{1}{2} = \$5[/tex]

For transformations, this intuition needs a small modification:

Operations outside: transformations happen "normally" as you would expect.Operations inside: transformations  happen "backwards" from the natural way one might expect.

Multiplying on the outside

When multiplying outside of the function, things outside happen normally, and since it is happening outside, it is in a vertical direction.

Ex. Multiplying outside by 3, things get larger (stretch) vertically to 3 times as much as (300% of) normal (away from a height of zero).

Multiplying outside by [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , things get smaller (compress) vertically down to [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] as much as (50% of) normal (toward a height of zero).

"g" is lower than "f", so it may have been compressed vertically (see alternative solution at end).

Looking at the only options with multiplication outside (A & B), option B multiplies by 3 (greater than 1), so it would stretch "f" even taller.

Option A, does compress "f" vertically (by 1/3), but doesn't compress it enough to arrive at the point (3,1) defined on function "g". Note ordered pair (3,1) on "g", meaning when you input "3", you get out "1".  

Putting 3 into the "f" function, f(3)=9.  Since one-third (the transformation in Option A) of 9 is 3, not 1, Option A doesn't compress "f" enough.

Multiplying on the inside

When multiplying inside, transformations happen horizontally, and inside things happen "backwards".

So, if multiplying inside by 4, (...normally things get bigger...) things actually get smaller (compressed) horizontally, reduced to 1/4 (the reciprocal of 4) the size (toward a horizontal distance of zero).

If multiplying by a number less than one (but positive), like [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] , (...things normally get smaller...) things will actually get larger (stretch) in the horizontal direction out to triple (the reciprocal of [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]) as much as normal.

Looking options C & D (where multiplication happens inside), both have multiplication by a positive number less than one (... normally would make things smaller...), which will stretch "f" out horizontally.

How far has the function been stretched out horizontally?

Looking at the red point (3,1), the blue function does have a height-matched point at (1,1).

Measuring horizontal distances, (3,1) is 3-units from the y-axis, whereas (1,1) is only 1-unit away.  Thus, the "g" is 3 times as far as "f", meaning a horizontal stretch outward by 3.

Answer C multiplies inside by [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex], so it actually makes things 3 times bigger horizontally.

The correct answer is option C.

Verifying algebraically

To verify, from (3,1), put 3 into the option C g(x) --  it gives "1" as an output.

[tex]g(x)=(\frac{1}{3}x)^2\\g(3)=(\frac{1}{3}(3))^2\\g(3)=(1)^2\\g(3)=1\\[/tex]

An alternative solution

This function could have been compressed vertically to obtain the red graph.

Note that f(3)=9.

The point (3,1), on the red function, is only at a height of 1 ... 1/9th the height of the blue function.  We could compress the "f" vertically by 1/9th to transform the blue function into the red function.

Vertical transformations come from operations outside, and outside things behave "normally", so to vertically compress by 1/9th, just multiply on the outside by 1/9th.

Thus, an alternative answer to transform f(x) to g(x) is [tex]g(x)=\frac{1}{9}(x^2)[/tex]

Two last things:

Simplifying this function we just obtained we get [tex]g(x)=\frac{1}{9}x^2[/tex]

Returning to the function that we chose for our answer in option C, [tex]g(x)=(\frac{1}{3}x)^2[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=(\frac{1}{3}x)(\frac{1}{3}x)[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=\frac{1}{9}x^2[/tex]

Note that the transformation answer for this problem (Option C) and our alternative solution both simplify and match perfectly, so they both represent the same end result.

Answers

By applying definite integrals and integration rules, the area bounded between the curves f(x) = x² and g(x) = -(x+2)² + 4 is equal to 8 square units.

How to determine the between the two integrals

The points of intersection between the two curves are (x, y) = (0, 0) and (x, y) = (-2, 4). The curve is f(x) = x² and upper curve is g(x) = -(x+2)² + 4. The area between the two curves is defined by this definite integral:

[tex]A = \int\limits^{0}_{-2} {f(x) - g(x)} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]A = \int\limits^{0}_{-2} {f(x)} \, dx - \int\limits^{0}_{-2} {g(x)} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]A = \int\limits^0_{-2} {[-(x+2)^{2}+4]} \, dx -\int\limits^0_{-2} {x^{2}} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]A = -\frac{(x+2)^{3}}{3}|_{-2}^{0} + 4\cdot x|_{-2}^{0}-\frac{x^{3}}{3}|_{-2}^{0}[/tex]

[tex]A = - \frac{2^{3}}{3} + 0 + 4\cdot [0 - (-2)] - 0 + \frac{(-2)^{3}}{3}[/tex]

[tex]A = -\frac{8}{3} + 8 -\frac{8}{3}[/tex]

In how many ways can $9$ friends sit at a circular table if two of them, Anna and Bob, insist on having exactly two people seated between them? (As usual, two seatings are considered the same if one is a rotation of the other.)

Answers

There are 10,080 different ways in which the friends can seat on the circular table.

In how many ways the friends can seat?

There are 9 friends, such that two of them need to be separated by exactly two people.

Because the table is circular, we can consider the first position as the position where Bob is.

Now let's count the number of options for each of the other 8 positions. (counting to the left).

The next two positions have 7 and 6 options respectively (as these can be taken by any of the other 7 friends)

For the next seat, we could seat Anna or one of the remaining 5 friends.

Let's assume we seat Anna there, then for each of the next positions, we will have, respectively, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 options.

The total number of combinations is given by the product between the numbers of options, so we have:

C = 7*6*5*4*3*2*1

But we also need to consider the case where Anna is on the first position (and Bob on the third), so we just need to add a factor equal to 2.

C = 2*(7*6*5*4*3*2*1) = 10,080

We have:

A tunnel is constructed with a semi-elliptical arch. The width of the tunnel is 60 feet, and the maximum height at the center of the tunnel is 25 feet.

2a = 60 (width of the tunnel is 60 feet)

Answers

Considering the multiplication of mixed fractions, [tex]\frac{21}{6}[/tex] or 3.5 hours was sunny that day.

Multiplication of mixed fractions

To multiply mixed fractions, it is necessary to transform these fractions into improper fractions. To do this, the whole part is multiplied by the denominator of the fraction that accompanies it. The result of the multiplication is added to the numerator of the fraction that accompanies it, and it will be the denominator of the new fraction, while the denominator remains the same.

After transforming the mixed fractions to be multiplied into improper fractions, they are multiplied. To do this, it is necessary to multiply the numerators of the two fractions, and the denominators of the fractions. If the resulting product needs to be simplified to lowest terms, divide the numerator and denominator by common factors.

This storm blew in unbelievably fast, so I can see how those poor fishermen were marooned. They were out there just trying to make a living on a Monday afternoon, and along comes a life-threatening situation. I hope theyre both unharmed and conscious, and that they will be able to help me give them assistance.Im going to try and get a visual of the fishermen as soon as possible because its critical to know what Im going into. I have to be cognizant of every detail at the site so that I can work in an accurate and expeditious manner. Oh, here it comes: the Wave of Doubt. Why cant I just concentrate on the task at hand in these situations? Heres a better question: Why didnt I go into public relations or web design like everyone else in my class so that I would have been able to stay on dry land seven days a week?It was the summer of sophomore year when Maceo, Tim, and I went out on Uncle Jacks boat and witnessed the rescue mission that determined my fate. As much as I wanted to know what was going to happen to the people on that boat, I was just as captivated by that amazing rescue team. That team could never have anticipated the exact circumstances it would encounterthe direction of the wind, the quickly disappearing ship, and the angle at which it had capsizedand yet every maneuver was executed as if the mission had been planned and choreographed. Thats the moment I decided what I would do with the rest of my life. Of course, I could have decided to be a dispatcher for the Coast Guard, and I still would have been close to the action, but I had to go for the glory.Its all about the adrenaline rush; the only problem with that rush is that there are lives at stake. Those poor fishermen got swept off track and stranded by this storm, and Im the one they are relying on to extricate them from a treacherous situation and bring them home to their families. Okay, I have to snap out of this because I know that the captain wouldnt assign me to these missions if I couldnt handle them. I have received years of elite training for missions like this, and I have a spotless track record for at-sea rescues. Why do I always have to convince myself that I am capable of this?Okay, I can see the area where these guys must be stranded, so Ill get my gear together and be ready to go. This wind is unbelievable, but if Im heading into a storm, its certainly in my favor to have Thao as my pilot. Hes the best pilot Ive ever worked with, and he can keep a helicopter steady in a monsoon. I wonder whether Thao ever doubts himself or whether he questions his ability the way I do mine. Is that something I can ask someone who has a high-pressure occupation, or will he think Ive lost my edge?It looks like were going to circle around and wait for the most judicious opportunity for rescue. I know that Thao does not want to repeatedly attempt this approach; he wants to be confident that when he makes his descent, it is at the most favorable time to carry out the rescue. I can see exactly how these fishermen got stranded here, and it looks like they did everything right once they realized they were going to get stuck. That will make the rescue much easier.I shouldnt think of this as easy. I know what I need to do here, but I could lose one these men if just one thing goes wrong. Ill hear my petty officer whos here in the chopper through my earpiece, and hell be acting as a second pair of eyes alerting me about anything he thinks I do not see coming. While thats reassuring, its up to me to get those men into this helicopter.Here we go; Thao is making his descent. Im going to be in a perfect position as I leave the chopper, and I can visualize just how this is going to go. Every move will be deliberate and meticulous, just like that rescue from sophomore year. Im close enough to see the relief in the fishermens faces. Ive got this.How does the author heighten the suspense in this story?A: The author provides details about how the fishermen became marooned at sea.B: The author describes how the chopper pilot has to make his descent at the most favorable time.C: The author describes how the narrator relies on the petty officer to alert him to things he doesn't see coming during the rescue.D: The author informs readers that the narrator's captain wouldn't have assigned the narrator to these missions if he couldn't handle them.
