Which of the following is the solution for 9<=1-4x<21

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-5 < x <=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

9<=1-4x<21

Subtract 1 from each side

9 -1<=1-1-4x<21-1

8 <= -4x < 20

Divide each side by -4.  That means to flip all inequalities

8/-4 >= -4x/-4 >20/-4

-2 >=x > -5

-5 < x <=-2

Find the surface area of the right square pyramid. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

ANSWER

C. 145.75 yd²

EXPLANATION

First we need to calculate the area of the four triangular faces.

The lateral surface area

[tex] = 4 \times \frac{1}{2} \times 5.3 \times 11.1[/tex]

[tex] = 117.66 {yd}^{2} [/tex]

The area of the base is

[tex] = 5.3 \times 5.3[/tex]

[tex] = 28.09[/tex]

To find the total surface area, we add the area of the square base to the area of the 4 triangular faces.

Therefore the total surface area is

[tex] = 117.66 + 8.09 = 145.75 {yd}^{2} [/tex]

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the surface area of the right square pyramid, you need to use the following formula:

[tex]SA=\frac{1}{2}(4s)(l)+(s^2)[/tex]

Where  "s" is the length of any side of the base and "l" is the slant height.

You can identify in the figure that:

[tex]s=5.3yd\\l=11.1yd[/tex]

Therefore, substituting these values into the formula, you get this result:

[tex]SA=\frac{1}{2}(4(5.3yd))(11.1yd)+((5.3yd)^2)\\\\SA=145.75yd^2[/tex]

To ensure an excellent bond when brazing, the clearance gap between pipe and fitting must be _______ inches.

Answers

Step-by-step Answer:

Gap must be a maximum of 0.005 inches, and uniform all around.  Round out with a sizing tool if necessary.

When brazing, the clearance gap between pipe and fitting should be between 0.002 and 0.006 inches.

This clearance gap is important to allow the brazing material to flow via capillary action and to create a strong, sealed joint. The exact clearance can vary depending on the materials and the application, but staying within this range is a good practice.

For brazing larger diameter pipes and fittings, a slightly larger gap may be acceptable, but generally it is best to maintain the smallest gap that will still allow for proper capillary action of the filler metal.

Answer:

  10 and 14

Step-by-step explanation:

You need only check the answers to see which one satisfies the problem requirements. The differences between the second and first numbers are ...

  8, 4, 2, -6

Only one pair has the second number 4 more than the first: 10 and 14.

Since you are given variable definitions, perhaps you're expected to write and solve equations.

  a + b = 24 . . . . . the sum of the two numbers is 24

  -a +b = 4 . . . . . . the second number is 4 more than the first

Adding these two equations gives ...

  (a +b) +(-a +b) = (24) +(4)

  2b = 28 . . . . .  simplify; next, divide by 2

  b = 14 . . . . . . .  identifies 10 and 14 as the correct answer

Suppose a population of 250 fleas doubles in size every month. The function f(x)=250(2^x) gives the population after x months. How many fleas will there be after 1 year?

A. 500
B. 1,024,000
C. 6,000
D. 2,280

Answers

I'm not the best at math, but I tried.

x= the amount of months passed

The question asks for the population of fleas in 1 year, and 1 year = 12 months, then x would equal 12 months

Therefore, you substitute that x with 12

f(x)=250(2^x)-------f(x)=250(2^12)

Now you can solve that part of the problem:

2 to the power of 12= 4096

f(x)=250(4096)

now multiply that:

250×4096= 1024000

The answer is C. 1024000

The answer is 1,024,000 fleas.

The function f(x)=250(2^x) gives the population of fleas after x months. To find out how many fleas there will be after 1 year, substitute x=12 into the function:
f(12) = 250(2^12) = 250 * 4096 = 1,024,000 fleas.

The last time Esteban checked his credit score, it was 740, and his only credit event since has been applying for a store credit card. Which of these is most likely to be his credit score now?

Answers

According to the information, it can be inferred that the current credit score for Esteban is 730 because he has not used more transactions than eleven of his credit score.

What is the credit score?

A credit score is a term that refers to an index that is intended to predict the chances that you will repay a loan on time.

This takes into account different factors related to your economy, so it is likely that the more movement of money you have, your score will be higher.

Based on the foregoing, it can be inferred that Esteban's score dropped because he has not made important transactions in recent months. Additionally, it has no recent transaction history.

a quadradic polynomial has a degree of 2 true or false

Answers

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

 We know that the quadratics polynomials have this form:

[tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex]

You need to remember that the degree of a polynomial is given by its highest exponent.

You can observe in the quadratic polynomial [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] that the highest exponent is "2", which is the exponent of the term [tex]ax^2[/tex]

Therefore, since the highest exponent is "2", you should conclude that the degree of the polynomial is 2.

Then, you can say that a quadradic polynomial has degree 2.

3.4(x+1.58)=-11.288 value of x.

Answers

3.4(x+1.58)= - 11.288

Step 1: Distribute 3.4 to the numbers inside the parentheses (x+1.58)

3.4x + (3.4×1.58)= - 11.288

3.4x + 5.372 = -11.288

Step 2: Bring 5.372 to the right side by subtracting it to both sides

3.4x + (5.372 - 5.372 ) = (-11.288 - 5.372)

3.4x + (0) = (-16.66)

3.4x = -16.66

Step 3: Isolate x by dividing 3.4 to both sides

[tex]\frac{3.4x}{3.4}  = \frac{-16.66}{3.4}[/tex]

One side of a rectangle is 6 yd longer than three times another side. The area of the rectangle is 72 yd2. Find the length of the longer side.

Answers

Answer:

18 yds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length and width be L and W respectively.

Then L· W = area = 72 yd², so that L = (72 yd²) / W.

But also L = 3W + 6 yd.  Subbing this into  L· W = area = 72 yd², we get:

(3W + 6) · W = 72, or

3W² + 6W - 72 = 0.  Since all  four terms are evenly divisible by 3, we get:

W² + 2W - 24 = 0, which factors as follows:

(W + 6)(W - 4) = 0.  Then W + 6 = 0, or W = -6 (makes no sense for a length), and W - 4 = 0 yields W = 4 yds.

If the shorter side is of length 4 yds, then the longer side is of length

L = 3(4 yds) + 6 yds = 18 yds

Answer:

18 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x + 6) * x = 72

Use the distributive property

3x^2 + 6x = 72

3x^2 + 6x - 72 = 0

3(x^2 + 2x - 24) = 0

X^2 + 2x - 24 = 0

X can equal -6 and 4.

4 only works for this problem

4 * 3 = 12

12 + 6 = 18

So, the answer is 18 yd.

Let’s check our work.

3 * 4 = 12

12 + 6 = 18

18 * 4 = 72

So, we know for a fact that the longer side is 18 yd long.

A cabin cruiser travels 48 miles upstream (against the current) and 48 miles downstream (with the current). The speed of the current is 4 miles per hour. Find the total time traveled if the cabin cruiser travels at 12 miles per hour in still water.

Answers

Hello!

The answer is:

The total time traveled is equal to 9 hours.

Why?

To solve the problem, we need to write two equations using the given information about the travel upstream and downstream.

So, we need to write two equations:

Let be "x" the speed of the cabin cruiser (12 mph in still water)

Let be "y" the speed of the current (4 mph).

Then,

For the travel against the current (upstream), we have:

[tex](x-y)*t_{upstream}=48miles\\\\(x-y)*t_{upstream}=48miles\\\\(x-4mph)*t_{upstream}=48miles[/tex]

For the travel with the current (downstream), we have:

[tex](x+y)*t_{downstream}=48miles\\\\(x+y)*t_{downstream}=48miles\\\\(x+4mph)*t_{downstream}=48miles[/tex]

Also, we know that the speed of the cruise traveling in still water is equal to 12mph.

So,

Calculating the time traveled upstream, we have:

[tex](x-4mph)*t_{upstream}=48miles[/tex]

[tex](12mph-4mph)*t_{upstream}=48miles[/tex]

[tex](8mph)*t_{upstream}=48miles[/tex]

[tex]t_{upstream}=\frac{48miles}{8mph}=6hours[/tex]

Calculating the time traveled downstream, we have:

[tex](x+4mph)*t_{downstream}=48miles[/tex]

[tex](12mph+4mph)*t_{downstream}=48miles[/tex]

[tex](16mph)*t_{downstream}=48miles[/tex]

[tex]t_{downstream}=\frac{48miles}{16mph}=3hours[/tex]

Now that we know the time traveled upstream and downstream, we need to calculate the total time traveled using the following equation:

[tex]TotalTime=t_{upstream}+t_{downstream}\\\\TotalTime=6hours+3hours=9hours[/tex]

Hence, we have that the total time traveled is equal to 9 hours.

It is a great way to observe nature. They zip from tree to tree and sing beautiful songs. One of the best things about bird watching is that you can do it right at home. By creating a bird friendly environment in your backyard with birdhouses, bird feeders, and plenty of trees, shrubs, and flowers that attract birds, you will have front-row seats to nature year-round.2To get started, first decide which kinds of feathered creatures you want to attract. They will have to be birds that are common to your area. You will not likely attract seagulls, birds that live near water, if you live high atop a mountain. Next, find out which plants different bird species like to eat. For example, hummingbirds love flowers that provide nectar, a sweet, sugary liquid found deep inside flowers. To attract hummingbirds, plant petunias or hibiscuses, since these are good sources of nectar.3Learning the food habits of the birds you want to attract is important. Many types of trees, shrubs, and plants produce fruits, berries, acorns, and nuts that serve as food sources for birds. Before planting anything, the first thing you should do is talk to an expert at your local garden center to find out which trees, shrubs, and wildflowers are native to your area. This will ensure that anything you plant will adapt well to the climate and will grow nicely to meet birds' needs.4Aside from planting, a bird feeder is also an excellent way to attract birds to your backyard and to supply food. A bird feeder contains seeds or bird food. It is a good idea to have more than one bird feeder since different types of birds eat different foods. For example, finches and sparrows love seeds, while woodpeckers and orioles prefer fruits and berries. Having different types of feeders that provide a variety of foods will attract many birds to your backyard.5Birds enjoy a day at the spa to relax and refresh as much as you do. Consider adding a birdbath to your backyard to attract birds. Birds will love having a source of clean, fresh water to drink and a place where they can clean up after a long flight. Always keep the birdbath clean and replace the water often to avoid attracting mosquitoes that can carry diseases.6Since you will have plenty of birds around your backyard from all of your efforts, they will need shelter. Birdhouses are perfect for this purpose. Birdhouses protect birds from enemies such as the neighbor's cat and provide shelter from severe weather such as extreme heat or cold. Birds also build nests in trees, shrubs, and tall grass.7Remember that you can observe birds year-round. Though many birds migrate to warmer climates when temperatures drop, others remain throughout the cold season. For instance, the blue jay is one of the most beautiful winter birds. Since food is difficult to find outdoors in the winter, keep your birdfeeders well stocked if you live in a colder climate. In addition, plant trees and shrubs that provide food to your feathered friends when temperatures drop1) According to the information in the passage, before purchasing bird food for a bird feeder a person shouldA) plant trees and shrubs in the yard.
