Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line satisfying the given conditions. The line passes through (minus1,3) and is parallel to the line whose equation is y equals 2 x plus 1.
Answer:
y = 2x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 2x + 1 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 2
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
y = 2x + ← is the partial equation of the parallel line
To find c substitute (- 1, 3) into the partial equation
3 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 3 + 2 = 5
y = 2x + 5 ← equation of parallel line
The DeMarco hotel has 500 rooms available for sale. For Monday night the hotel’s occupancy is 60%. What is the number of rooms the hotel has available to sell for Monday night? 100 200 250 300
Answer:
200 rooms are available to sell.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Total number of rooms for Monday night = 500,
Occupancy percentage for Monday night = 60%,
Thus, the remaining rooms available for Monday Night
= (100-60)% of total rooms
= 40% of 500
[tex]=\frac{40\times 500}{100}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{20000}{100}[/tex]
= 200
Therefore, there are 200 rooms available to sell for Monday night.

An ice cream shop serves small and large scoops of ice cream. Each scoop is sphere-shaped. Each small scoop has a diameter of approximately 6 centimeters. Each large scoop has a diameter of approximately 10 centimeters What is the difference, in cubic centimeters, between a large scoop of ice cream and a small scoop of ice cream? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
The difference in volume between a large scoop and a small scoop of ice cream is approximately 410.5 cubic centimeters.
Explanation:To find the difference in volume between a large scoop and a small scoop of ice cream, we need to calculate the volume of each scoop and then subtract the volume of the small scoop from the volume of the large scoop.
The volume of a sphere can be calculated using the formula V = (4/3)πr³, where r is the radius. Since the diameter of the small scoop is 6 cm, the radius is 3 cm. Plugging this into the formula, we get V = (4/3)π(3 cm)³. Evaluating this expression, we find that the volume of the small scoop is approximately 113.1 cm³.
Similarly, the diameter of the large scoop is 10 cm, so the radius is 5 cm. Using the same formula, we find that the volume of the large scoop is approximately 523.6 cm³.
To find the difference in volume, we subtract the volume of the small scoop from the volume of the large scoop: 523.6 cm³ - 113.1 cm³ = 410.5 cm³. Therefore, the difference in volume between a large scoop and a small scoop of ice cream is approximately 410.5 cubic centimeters.

Kevin uses 84 fluid ounces of water to make an all-purpose cleaner. The directions call for 4 fluid ounces of concentrated soap for every 3 cups of water. How many fluid ounces of soap should he use? (1 cup 5 8 fl oz)
Answer: 28 fl oz
Step-by-step explanation:
84 fl oz. = 10.5 cups of water
10.5/3=3.5*8=28
why 3.5 times 8 is to get the exact amount of fluid ounces
Answer: he would need 14 fluid ounces of concentrated soap.
Step-by-step explanation:
The directions call for 4 fluid ounces of concentrated soap for every 3 cups of water.
1 cup = 8 fluid ounces
Converting 3 cups of water to fluid ounces, it becomes
3 cups = 3 × 8 = 24 fluid ounces
Kevin uses 84 fluid ounces of water to make an all-purpose cleaner. This means that the amount of concentrated soap that he would use is
(84 × 4)/24 = 336/24 = 14 fluid ounces of concentrated soap
A plane can fly 520 miles in the same time as it takes a car to go 200 miles. If the car travels 80 mph slower than the plane, find the speed of the plane.
Answer: the speed of the plane is 130 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the plane. If the car travels 80 mph slower than the plane, then the speed of the car would be (x - 80) mph.
Time = Distance/speed
plane can fly 520 miles in the same time as it takes a car to go 200 miles. This means that the time it takes the plane to fly 520 miles is
520/x
Also, the time it takes the car to drive 200 miles is
200/(x - 80)
Since the time is the same, it means that
520/x = 200/(x - 80)
Cross multiplying, it becomes
520(x - 80) = 200 × x
520x - 41600 = 200x
520x - 200x = 41600
320x = 41600
x = 41600/320
x = 130 mph
Point M is the midpoint of AC , find the coordinates of the missing endpoint when you are given one endpoint, and the coordinates of the midpoint. M(0, 5.5) and C(-3, 6).
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, given the line segment is AC.
Let us assume the coordinates of the point A = (p,q)
The point M (0,5.5) is the mid point of line segment AC.
By Mid-Point Formula:
The coordinates of the mid point M of segment AC is given as:
[tex](0,5.5) = (\frac{p + (-3)}{2} ,\frac{q+ (6)}{2})\\\implies \frac{p + (-3)}{2} = 0 , \frac{q+ (6)}{2} = 5.5\\\implies p = 0 + 3 = 3, q = 5.5 (2) - 6 = 11-6 = 5\\\implies p = 3, q = 5[/tex]
So, the coordinates of the point A is (3,5)

5. For a problem like this, I like to work it backward. If Craig got an extra $18, then everyone's share was $32 -18 = $14. That was the share from a 5-way split, so the amount the friends split evenly was 5×$14 = $70. The total they started with must have been $70 +18 = $88.
The amount they split unevenly was $88. The amount they split evenly, after setting aside $18 for Craig's parents, was $70.
__
It is a bit tricky to write one equation for the amount the friends started with before they did any splits. Call that amount A. Then after setting aside $18, they split (A-18) five ways. Each of those splits was then (A-18)/5. When the $18 was added to one of those, the result was the $32 that Craig got. So, we have ...
(A -18)/5 +18 = 32
and the solution process is similar to the "working backward" description above: subtract 18, multiply by 5, add back 18.
(A -18)/5 = 14
A -18 = 70
A = 88 . . . . . . . . the amount the friends split unevenly

Bonita Industries sells radios for $50 per unit. The fixed costs are $645000 and the variable costs are 60% of the selling price. As a result of new automated equipment, it is anticipated that fixed costs will increase by $215000 and variable costs will be 50% of the selling price. The new break-even point in units is:
Answer:
The new break even point in units = 34400 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Fixed cost ( F ) = $ 645000
Selling price ( s )= $ 50
Variable Cost ( v ) = [tex]\frac{60}{100}[/tex] × 50 = 30
Break Even Quantity ( [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] ) = [tex]\frac{F}{s - v}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{645000}{50 - 30}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{645000}{20}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] = 32250 units
Now the new fixed cost ( [tex]F_{1}[/tex] ) = $ 645000 + $ 215000 = $ 860000
Selling price ( s )= $ 50
Variable Cost ( v ) = [tex]\frac{50}{100}[/tex] × 50 = $ 25
Break Even Quantity ( [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] ) = [tex]\frac{F_{1} }{s - v}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{860000}{50 - 25}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x_{BEP}[/tex] = 34400 units
Therefore, The new break even point in units = 34400 units

the function shown in the graph? (4 points)
Minimum:
Maximum:
Answer:
minimum: -9maximum: -6Step-by-step explanation:
For a point to be a relative extreme, there must be points on both sides that are not as extreme. That is, the ends of the interval may be extreme values, but do not qualify as relative extrema, since there are not points on both sides.
In the interval [-3, 3], the relative extrema are the turning points.
The relative minimum is at y = -9 on the y-axis.
The relative maxima are at y = -6, between 1 and 2 on either side of the y-axis.

Let f(x)=15/(1+4e^(-0.2x) )
What is the point of maximum growth rate for the logistic function f(x)? Show all work.
Round your answer to the nearest hundredth
Answer:
6.93
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 15 / (1 + 4e^(-0.2x))
f(x) = 15 (1 + 4e^(-0.2x))^-1
Taking first derivative:
f'(x) = -15 (1 + 4e^(-0.2x))^-2 (-0.8e^(-0.2x))
f'(x) = 12 (1 + 4e^(-0.2x))^-2 e^(-0.2x)
f'(x) = 12 (1 + 4e^(-0.2x))^-2 (e^(0.1x))^-2
f'(x) = 12 (e^(0.1x) + 4e^(-0.1x))^-2
Taking second derivative:
f"(x) = -24 (e^(0.1x) + 4e^(-0.1x))^-3 (0.1e^(0.1x) − 0.4e^(-0.1x))
Set to 0 and solve:
0 = -24 (e^(0.1x) + 4e^(-0.1x))^-3 (0.1e^(0.1x) − 0.4e^(-0.1x))
0 = 0.1e^(0.1x) − 0.4e^(-0.1x)
0.1e^(0.1x) = 0.4e^(-0.1x)
e^(0.1x) = 4e^(-0.1x)
e^(0.2x) = 4
0.2x = ln 4
x = 5 ln 4
x ≈ 6.93

The inflection point represents the time of most rapid growth. After the inflection point, the growth rate declines, reaches the limiting value. The inflection point occurs at half of the carrying capacity. This is the level of maximum growth.The equation for a logistic model is N = {K/1 + b[tex]$e^{-rt}[/tex]}. The constant {K} is the carrying capacity. It is the limiting value of N. The inflection point occurs at N = K/2.So, we can say that at {x} = N = 15/2 = 7.5, the point of maximum growth exists. At {x} = 7.5, the value of {y} = 7.926. Refer to the graph of the function attached.
Therefore, the point of maximum growth rate for the logistic function f(x) is at (7.5, 7.926).

A company is going to make an oil container in the shape of a cylinder. As shown below, the container will have a height of 8m and a diameter of 12m. The container will be made from steel (including its top and bottom). Suppose the total cost of the steel will be $17,408.16. How much will the steel cost per square meter? Use 3.14 for π, and do not round your answer.
For the cylinder whose surface area is 527.52 square meter, the total steel cost per square meter is $33.
The following information given in the question:
Height of the cylinder = 8 m
Diameter of the cylinder = 12 m
And the total cost of the steel = $17,408.16
We have to find the steel cost per square meter.
We know the radius is half of the diameter.
So, the radius (r) of the cylinder = 12/2 = 6 m
[tex]\text{Cost per square meter} = \dfrac{\text{total cost}}{\text{total surface area}}[/tex]
Surface area of the cylinder is calculated by the following formula:
Total surface area= 2πr(r+h)
=2×(3.14)×6(6+8)
=527.52 square meter
That means the steel cost for the 527.52 square meter is $17,408.16 (given in the question)
So, Cost per square meter = [tex]\dfrac{17,408.16}{527.52 }[/tex]
The steel cost of per square meter = $33
Hence, the steel cost of per square meter will be $33.

Answer:
you're not doing anything wrong
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for cos⁻¹ to be a function, its range must be restricted to [0, π]. The cosine value that is its argument is cos(-4π/3) = -1/2. You have properly identified cos⁻¹(-1/2) to be 2π/3.
__
Cos and cos⁻¹ are conceptually inverse functions. Hence, conceptually, cos⁻¹(cos(x)) = x, regardless of the value of x. The expected answer here may be -4π/3.
As we discussed above, that would be incorrect. Cos⁻¹ cannot produce output values in the range [-π, -2π] unless it is specifically defined to do so. That would be an unusual definition of cos⁻¹. Nothing in the problem statement suggests anything other than the usual definition of cos⁻¹ applies.

We have been given that in the library at Lenape elementary school, there are 3/8 as many fiction books as there are nonfiction books. So number of fiction books would be [tex]\frac{3}{8}x[/tex].
We are also told that there are 44 books in school library. We can represent this information in an equation as:
[tex]x+\frac{3}{8}x=44[/tex]
Let us solve for x.
[tex]\frac{8x}{8}+\frac{3}{8}x=44[/tex]
[tex]\frac{8x+3x}{8}=44[/tex]
[tex]\frac{11x}{8}=44[/tex]
[tex]\frac{11x}{8}\cdot \frac{8}{11}=44\cdot\frac{8}{11}[/tex]
[tex]x=4\cdot 8[/tex]
[tex]x=32[/tex]
Therefore, there are 32 non fiction books in the library.
Number of fiction books would be [tex]\frac{3}{8}x\Rightarrow \frac{3}{8}*32=3*4=12[/tex]
Therefore, there are 12 fiction books in the library.
A certain computer loses half of its value every two years. If the value of the computer after 3 years is 425, what was the initial value of the computer
To solve this problem, we can use the concept of exponential decay, where the value of the computer decreases by half every two years. Let's denote the initial value of the computer as [tex]\( V_0 \)[/tex]. After the first two years, its value will be [tex]\( \frac{1}{2}V_0 \)[/tex], after another two years (total of 4 years), its value will be [tex]\( \frac{1}{4}V_0 \)[/tex], and after three years, its value will be [tex]\( \frac{1}{8}V_0 \).[/tex]
Given that after three years its value is $425, we can set up the equation:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{8}V_0 = 425 \][/tex]
Now, let's solve for [tex]\( V_0 \):\[ V_0 = 425 \times 8 \]\[ V_0 = 3400 \][/tex]
So, the initial value of the computer was $3400.
the area of a triangular flower bed in the park has an area of 120 square feet. The base is 4 feet longer than twice the height. What are the base and the height of the triangle
Answer: height = 10 feet
Base = 24 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h represent the height of the triangular flower bed.
Let b represent the base of the triangular flower bed
The formula for determining the area of a triangle is expressed as
Area = 1/2 × base × height
The area of a triangular flower bed in the park has an area of 120 square feet. This means that
1/2 × bh = 120
bh = 120 × 2
bh = 240- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The base is 4 feet longer than twice the height. This means that
b = 2h + 4
Substituting b = 2h + 4 into equation 1, it becomes
h(2h + 4) = 240
2h² + 4h = 240
2h² + 4h - 240 = 0
Dividing through by 2, it becomes
h² + 2h - 120 = 0
h² + 12h - 10h - 120 = 0
h(h + 12) - 10(h + 12) = 0
h - 10 = 0 or h + 12 = 0
h = 10 or h = - 12
Since the height cannot be negative, then h = 10
Substituting h = 10 into equation 1, it becomes
10b = 240
b = 240/10
y = 24
The answers are : (a) The height [tex]\( h \)[/tex] of the triangular flower bed is [tex]10\ feet[/tex]. (b) The base [tex]\( b \)[/tex] of the triangular flower bed is [tex]24 \ feet[/tex]
Let's denote the height of the triangular flower bed as [tex]\( h \)[/tex] feet.
According to the problem, the base of the triangle is [tex]4\ feet[/tex] longer than twice the height. Therefore, the base [tex]\( b \)[/tex] can be expressed as:
[tex]\[ b = 2h + 4 \][/tex]
The formula for the area [tex]\( A \)[/tex] of a triangle is given by
[tex]\[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height} \][/tex]
Given that the area [tex]\( A \)[/tex] of the triangular flower bed is [tex]120\ square\ feet[/tex], we can write the equation:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h = 120 \][/tex]
Substituting [tex]\( b = 2h + 4 \)[/tex] into the area equation:
[tex]\[ \frac{1}{2} \times (2h + 4) \times h = 120 \][/tex]
Now, solve for [tex]\( h \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ (2h + 4) \times h = 240 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 2h^2 + 4h = 240 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 2h^2 + 4h - 240 = 0 \][/tex]
Divide the entire equation by [tex]2[/tex] to simplify:
[tex]\[ h^2 + 2h - 120 = 0 \][/tex]
Now, solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, [tex]h = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a} \), where \( a = 1 \), \( b = 2 \), and \( c = -120 \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ h = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{(2)^2 - 4 \times 1 \times (-120)}}{2 \times 1} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ h = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{4 + 480}}{2} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ h = \frac{-2 \pm \sqrt{484}}{2} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ h = \frac{-2 \pm 22}{2} \][/tex]
The solutions for [tex]\( h \)[/tex] are:
[tex]\[ h = \frac{20}{2} = 10 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ h = \frac{-24}{2} = -12 \][/tex]
So, the height [tex]\( h \)[/tex] of the triangular flower bed is [tex]10\ feet.[/tex]
Now, calculate the base [tex]\( b \)[/tex]
[tex]\[ b = 2h + 4 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ b = 2 \times 10 + 4 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ b = 20 + 4 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ b = 24 \][/tex]
