The Fulcrum Of A Lever Is The Point On Which It Turns. Based On The Function, How Many Pounds Of Force

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 10 pounds of force

Answer 2

Answer:

10 lb of force are needed to lift the rock if the distance from the fulcrum is 6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given graph it is clear the curve passing through the point (1.5,40), (2,30), (2.5,24), (3,20) and (4,15).

These points satisfy by the equation

[tex]y=\frac{60}{x}[/tex]

where, x is the distance in feet from the fulcrum and y is needed force in pounds.

Put x=6 in this equation,

[tex]y=\frac{60}{6}=10[/tex]

Therefore, 10 lb of force are needed to lift the rock if the distance from the fulcrum is 6 feet.

The given expression is:

[tex] {3}^{ \frac{11}{5} } \div {3}^{ - \frac{9}{5} } [/tex]

Recall that:

[tex] {a}^{m} \div {a}^{n} = {a}^{m - n} [/tex]

We simplify the expression using the properties of exponents to obtain:

[tex]{3}^{ \frac{11}{5} } \div {3}^{ - \frac{9}{5} } = {3}^{ \frac{11}{5} - - \frac{9}{5} } [/tex]

We simplify the exponents to get;

[tex]{3}^{ \frac{11}{5} } \div {3}^{ - \frac{9}{5} } = {3}^{ \frac{11 + 9}{5}} [/tex]

[tex]{3}^{ \frac{11}{5} } \div {3}^{ - \frac{9}{5} } = {3}^{ \frac{20}{5}} [/tex]

[tex]{3}^{ \frac{11}{5} } \div {3}^{ - \frac{9}{5} } = {3}^{4} [/tex]

[tex]{3}^{ \frac{11}{5} } \div {3}^{ - \frac{9}{5} } = 81[/tex]

Tonya bought gifts for her family that cost $25, $14, $33, and $19. She has to buy one more gift and wants her mean cost to be $25. What should she spend on the last gift?

Answers

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be $34.

____________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get the mean cost that she wants from the gift, we would need to get the numbers that we already had, and have another set of row with the amount of gifts she needs with the mean she wants.

Here is how it should look like:

$25  $14  $33  $19    x

$25  $25  $25  $25 $25

We are trying to find the number for "x"

Therefore, we would need to use the process of adding, then subtracting after.

Lets add:

[tex]25+14+33+19=91\\\\25+25+25+25+25=125[/tex]

What we would do now is subtract the numbers in order to get the price that Tonya wants from her gift, if she buys another gift.

[tex]125-91=34[/tex]

Tonya should spend $34 on her last gift.

$34 should be your FINAL answer

Suppose you need to choose a new combination for your combination lock. You have to choose 3 numbers, each different and between 0 and 40. How many combinations are there? Explain

Answers

Answer:

63,960 possibilities in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first number, you can choose from 41 different numbers, so there are 41 possibilities.

For the second number, you cannot choose the same as the first one, so you are now limited to 40 possibilities.

For the third number, you are down to 39 possibilities since you cannot pick the same as the first two ones.

So, you have 41 * 40 * 39 = 63,960 possibilities in total.

Picking a new combination is easy... remembering it is the hard part :-)

If you want to calculate it from a formula standpoint, the base formula would be:

[tex]P(n,r) = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!} = \frac{41!}{(41-3)!} = 63960[/tex]

Where n is the total numbers possible and r is the quantity of numbers you have to pick.

Express the polynomial as a product of linear factors. 3x^3+12x^2+3x-18

Answers

Answer:

f(x) =  3(x + 2)(x - 1)(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

A logical first step would be to factor 3 out of all four terms:

f(x) = 3x^3+12x^2+3x-18 = 3(x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6)

Roots of this x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6 could be factors of 6:  {±1, ±2, ±3, ±6}.

I would use synthetic division here to determine which, if any, of these possibilities are actually roots of x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6.  Let's try x = 1 and see whether the remainder of this synth. div. is 0, which would indicate that 1 is indeed a root of x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6:

1    /    1    4    1    -6

                1    5    6

    ------------------------

          1     5    6    0

Yes, 1 is a root of x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6, and so (x - 1) is a factor of x^3 + 4x^2 + x - 6.

Look at the coefficients of the quotient, which are   1, 5 and 6.

This represents the quadratic 1x² + 5x + 6, whose factors are (x + 2) and

(x + 3).

Thus, the given polynomial in factored form is:

f(x) = 3x^3+12x^2+3x-18 = 3(x + 2)(x - 1)(x + 3)

Answers

Answer:

The pepperoni and peppers are mixed up

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The mistake my friend made was that pepperoni and peppers are mixed up, pepperoni is suppose to be 20% while peppers is supposed to be 14%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 4000 students

Pepperoni = 800

Sausage = 1,000

Mushrooms = 1,200

Peppers = 560

Onions = 240

Other = 200

To find the degree of each on the circle graph, we have:

Pepperoni = 800/4,000 * 100 = 20%

Sausage = 1,000/4,000 * 100 = 25%

Mushrooms = 1,200/4,000 * 100 = 30%

Peppers = 560/4,000 * 100 = 14%

Onions = 240/4,000 * 100 = 6%

Other = 200/4,000 * 100 = 5%

The mistake my friend made is that pepperoni and peppers are mixed up, pepperoni is suppose to be 20% while peppers is supposed to be 14%

If the first of three consecutive integers is subtracted from 138, the result is the sum of the second and third. What are the integers?

Answers

Answer:

45, 46, 47

Step-by-step explanation:

n, n + 1, n + 2 - three consecutive integers

The equation:

138 - n = (n + 1) + (n + 2)

138 - n = n + 1 + n + 2                 combile like terms

138 - n = 2n + 3           subtract 138 from both sides

-n = 2n - 135               subtract 2n from both sides

-3n = -135            divide both sides by (-3)

n = 45

n + 1 = 46

n + 2 = 47

Final answer:

The three consecutive integers in question are 45, 46, and 47. This was solved by setting up and solving a simple algebraic equation.

Explanation:Solution:

Let the three consecutive integers be x, x+1, and x+2. According to the problem, the sum of the second and third integers is equal to 138 minus the first one. This can be written mathematically as:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 138

Solving this equation gives:

3x + 3 = 138
3x = 135
x = 45

Hence, the three consecutive integers are 45, 46, 47.

Find the y-intercept of each exponential function and order the functions from least to greatest y-intercept.

Answers

Answer:

1) g(x) ----> y-intercept -3

2) h(x) ----> y-intercept -1

3) f(x) ----> y-intercept 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The y-intercept or initial value, is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

Calculate the y-intercept of each exponential function

case 1) A function g, has a growth factor of 2 and a value of 1, and passes through the point (1,-2)

The exponential function is equal to

[tex]g(x)=1(2)^{x}+c[/tex]

Find the value of c

For x=1, g(x)=-2

substitute

[tex]-2=(2)^{1}+c[/tex]

[tex]-2=2+c[/tex]

[tex]c=-4[/tex]

so

[tex]g(x)=(2)^{x}-4[/tex]

Find the y-intercept

For x=0

[tex]g(0)=(2)^{0}-4[/tex]

[tex]g(0)=-3[/tex]

case 2) Observing the table

For x=0

f(0)=2

therefore

The y-intercept of f(x) is 2

case 3) Observing the graph

For x=0

h(0)=-1

therefore

The y-intercept of h(x) is -1

Order the functions from least to greatest y-intercept

1) g(x) ----> y-intercept -3

2) h(x) ----> y-intercept -1

3) f(x) ----> y-intercept 2

Final answer:

To find the y-intercept of an exponential function, evaluate it at x = 0. The constant term in the function represents the y-intercept. Order the functions by comparing these constant terms from least to greatest.

Explanation:

To find the y-intercept of an exponential function, we need to evaluate the function when x is equal to zero. The exponential function is usually given in the form f(x) =[tex]ab^x[/tex], where a is the y-intercept. This is because any number (except zero) raised to the power of zero is 1, so[tex]b^0[/tex] will always be 1, leaving us with f(0) = a.

After finding the y-intercept for each function, order them from least to greatest to complete the task. For example, if we have functions such as f(x) = [tex]2(3)^x, g(x) = 5(2)^x[/tex], and h(x) = [tex]-1(4)^x,[/tex] their y-intercepts would be 2, 5, and -1 respectively. Ordered from least to greatest, the functions by their y-intercepts would be h(x), f(x), g(x).

Henry works at a computer store. He is paid $14.00 per hour, plus 5% commission. He worked 8 hours and sold 6 computers today for a total of $5,790. Henry wants to determine how much he earned.

A) Yes, Henry's calculation is correct.

B) No, he should have multiplied $5,790 by 0.05.

C) No, he should have added $112 to $5,790.

D) No, he should have multiplied 112 by 0.05.

Answers

No he should have multiplied 5,700 by 0.05

Answer:

The correct option is B) No, he should have multiplied $5,790 by 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

He is paid $14.00 per hour, plus 5% commission. He worked 8 hours and sold 6 computers today for a total of $5,790.

Now find his total earning as shown:

$14 × 8 = $112

It is given that he sold 6 computers for a total of $5,790 and he gets a commission of 5% of total sale.

5% = [tex]\frac{5}{100}=0.05[/tex]

Now multiply 0.05 with $5,790

$5,790 × 0.05 = $289.5

Hence, the total income is $112+$289.5=$401.5

To calculate his pay, Henry multiplies 14 × 8, then adds the product to 5,790, then multiplies the sum by 0.05.

Henry's calculation is incorrect as he needs to multiply 5,790 with 0.05 and then he need to add the product of 14 × 8

Therefore, the correct option is B) No, he should have multiplied $5,790 by 0.05.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

? claps for 1.75 mins?

1.75 minutes = 105 seconds (1.75×60 = 105)

105 seconds for (28/12)×105 claps

= 245 claps

Answer:

Your friends can clap their hands 245 times in 1.75 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you should know how many seconds represents 1.75 minutes, because the amount of applause your friends can make is in that measure of time.  In order to make this conversion, a simple rule of three is made, knowing that 1 minutes is 60 seconds:

If 1 minute is 60 seconds, how many seconds are 1.75 minutes?

[tex]\frac{1.75minutes*60seconds}{1minute} =105 seconds[/tex]

Knowing that your friend can clap his hands 28 times in 12 seconds and knowing that 1.75 minutes is 105 seconds, you can perform a rule of three again:

If they can clap their hands 28 times in 12 seconds, how many applause can they make in 105 seconds?

[tex]\frac{105seconds*28applause}{12} =245 applause[/tex]

Then your friends can clap their hands 245 times in 105 seconds, which is 1.75 minutes.

We are given the area of a circle and we are to find the circumference of the same circle.

We know that the area of a circle is given by [tex]\pi r^2[/tex] so equating the given value to get.

[tex]\pi r^2=254.47[/tex]

[tex]r^2=\frac{254.47}{\pi }[/tex]

[tex]r=\sqrt{81.00}[/tex]

r = 9 inches

Since we now know the radius of the circle so we can find its circumference.

Circumference of circle = [tex]2\pi r[/tex] = [tex]2\pi (9)[/tex] = 56.5 inches

Answer: 56.54 in
