Graph the points (–2.5,–3), (2.5,–4), and (5,0.5) on the coordinate plane.

Answer:

  A)  x < 15

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the solution to x/3 < 5.

The steps to solving an inequality are basically identical to the steps for solving an equation. There are a couple of differences:

If this were and equation, it would be a "one-step" equation. That step is to multiply both sides by the inverse of the coefficient of x.

The coefficient of x is 1/3. Its inverse is 3. Multiplying both sides by 3, we have ...

  3(x/3) < 3(5)

  x < 15 . . . . . . . . . simplify

Note that 3 is a positive number, so we leave the inequality symbol pointing the same direction.

__

Additional comment

We can swap the sides of an equation based on the symmetric property of equality:

  a = b   ⇔   b = a

When we swap the sides of an inequality, we need to preserve the relationship between them. (This is the meaning of "respect the direction of the inequality symbol".)

  a < b   ⇔   b > a

Besides multiplying and dividing by a negative number, there are other operations that affect the order of values.

Note that the 1/x function is another one that has negative slope, which is why it reverses the ordering for values with the same sign. (It has no effect on ordering of values with opposite signs.)

If boat is heading towards a lighthouse, whose beacon-light is 119 feet above the water, the distance from point A to point B is approximately 973 feet.

To find the distance from point A to point B, we can use trigonometry and the fact that the angles of elevation from both points are known.

Let x be the distance from point A to the lighthouse, and y be the distance from point B to the lighthouse. We can set up two equations using tangent function:

tan(5) = 119/x

tan(18) = 119/y

We can solve for x and y by isolating them in each equation:

x = 119/tan(5) ≈ 1343.44 feet

y = 119/tan(18) ≈ 370.79 feet

Therefore, the distance from point A to point B is approximately 1343.44 - 370.79 = 972.65 feet.

We rounded the final answer to the nearest foot, which is 973 feet.

The theoretical probability of rolling less than 9 on a 12-sided die is 0.6667 or approximately 67%.

To find the theoretical probability of rolling less than 9 on a 12-sided die, we need to count the number of outcomes that satisfy this condition and divide by the total number of possible outcomes.

There are 8 outcomes that satisfy this condition, namely 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. The total number of possible outcomes is 12, since the die has 12 sides. Therefore, the theoretical probability of rolling less than 9 on a 12-sided die is:

P(less than 9) = Number of outcomes that satisfy the condition / Total number of possible outcomes

= 8 / 12

= 2 / 3

For the given function f(x, y), there is a saddle point at (-28, 4). There are no local maximum or local minimum points.

A saddle point or minimax point is a point on the surface of the graph of a function where the slopes in orthogonal directions are all zero, but which is not a local extremum of the function.

Local maximum and minimum are the points of the functions, which give the maximum and minimum range. The local maxima and local minima can be computed by finding the derivative of the function.

The first derivative test and the second derivative test are the two important methods of finding the local maximum and local minimum.

To find the local maximum, local minimum, or saddle points of the given function f(x, y) = y^2 + 373 + 2xy - 8x + 6y^2, we need to first find the critical points by setting the first-order partial derivatives equal to zero.

∂f/∂x = 2y - 8
∂f/∂y = 2y + 2x + 12y => 2x + 14y

Now set both partial derivatives equal to zero and solve for x and y:

2y - 8 = 0 => y = 4
2x + 14y = 0 => 2x + 56 = 0 => x = -28

The critical point is (-28, 4). Now, we need to classify this point using the second-order partial derivatives:

∂²f/∂x² = 0
∂²f/∂y² = 14
∂²f/∂x∂y = ∂²f/∂y∂x = 2

Now we can use the discriminant D = (∂²f/∂x²)(∂²f/∂y²) - (∂²f/∂x∂y)^2 = (0)(14) - (2)^2 = -4. Since D < 0, the critical point is a saddle point.

So, for the given function f(x, y), there is a saddle point at (-28, 4). There are no local maximum or local minimum points.

The volume of the larger rectangular box is 125 times the volume of the smaller box.

To compare the volume of the larger rectangular box to the smaller box, we need to consider how the dimensions have changed.

Since the larger box has dimensions 5 times those of the smaller box, let's represent the dimensions of the smaller box as length (L), width (W), and height (H). Therefore, the dimensions of the larger box would be 5L, 5W, and 5H.

Now, let's calculate the volume of both boxes:

1. Volume of the smaller box: V_small = L * W * H
2. Volume of the larger box: V_large = (5L) * (5W) * (5H)

To find the ratio of the larger box's volume to the smaller box's volume, we can divide the volumes:

V_large / V_small = ((5L)*(5W)*(5H)) / (L * W * H)

Notice that L, W, and H can be canceled out:

3) The expanded equation is e² = x² -12x + 36 + h²
4) the expanded equation is a² = b²-x²+32

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse (c) of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides  (a² + b²).

So

1) The relationship between the side lengths in ΔABD is c² = x² + h² by the Pythagorean Theorem.

2) The relationship between the side lengths in Δ CBD is a² = (b-x)² + h² by the Pythagorean Theorem.

3) The equation is e² = (6 - x)² + h² when expanded

e² = 36 - 12x + x² + h²
or

e² = x² -12x + 36 + h²

4) Using this equation, we can solve for h² by subtracting (b-x)² from both sides:

a² - (b-x)² = h²

Now we can substitute this expression for h² into the equation given in step 3

2² = 6² - 2bx + (a² - (b-x)²)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

4 = 36 - 2bx + a² - (b-x)²

Expanding the square term, we get:

4 = 36 - 2bx + a² - (b² - 2bx + x²)

Simplifying further, we get:

4 = 36 - b² + x² + a²

20 pieces of 10 5/6 inch bar can be cut from a stock 29 foot bar.

To calculate the number of pieces of 10 5/6 inch bar that can be cut from a 29 foot bar, we need to first convert the measurements to a common unit. One foot is equal to 12 inches, so 29 feet equals 348 inches.

Next, we need to determine how many 10 5/6 inch bars can be cut from the 348-inch stock bar. To do this, we can use division. First, we need to convert the mixed number 10 5/6 to an improper fraction by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and adding the numerator. This gives us 125/6 inches.

Now, we can divide the length of the stock bar (348 inches) by the length of one 10 5/6 inch bar (125/6 inches). This gives us:

348 / (125/6) = 20.736

Since we cannot cut a partial bar, we need to round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, we can cut 20 pieces of 10 5/6 inch bar from a 29 foot stock bar.

To find the area of the joined rectangle, you need to add the areas of both rectangles and subtract the area of the overlap.

The area of the first rectangle is:

6 cm x 4 cm = 24 cm²

The area of the second rectangle is:

7 cm x 3 cm = 21 cm²

The overlap occurs where the two rectangles join together, and it has an area equal to the product of the widths of the two rectangles:

4 cm x 3 cm = 12 cm²

To find the area of the joined rectangle, add the areas of both rectangles and subtract the overlap:

24 cm² + 21 cm² - 12 cm² = 33 cm²

Therefore, the area of the joined rectangle is 33 cm².

Your best friend is charging you an annual interest rate of 4% for lending you ₹300 for nine months with a quarterly interest rate of 1%.

The amount a lender charges a borrower for the use of assets, such as money, consumer goods, or physical assets, is known as an interest rate. It is a fraction of the loan's principal, which is the amount borrowed to cover the cost of the purchase or the deposit made with a bank or other financial institution.

If your best friend is charging you an extra ₹3 for every three months that pass before you return the money, then after nine months, you will owe her an extra ₹9 in addition to the original ₹300.

So the total amount you must pay her if you return the ₹300 after nine months would be ₹309.

To calculate the annual rate of interest she is charging you, we can use the formula:

Annual Interest Rate = (Total Interest / Principal) x (12 / Number of Months)

Where the Principal is the original amount borrowed (₹300), the Total Interest is the extra amount you owe her (₹9), and the Number of Months is the time period for which you borrowed the money (9 months).

Plugging in the values, we get:

Annual Interest Rate = (9 / 300) x (12 / 9) = 0.04 or 4%

Therefore, the only value of c that works is 6√5.

(A) To find the average slope of the function f(x) = 1/x on the interval (5, 9), we use the formula:

Average Slope = (f(9) - f(5)) / (9 - 5)

Plugging in the values, we get:

Average Slope = (1/5 - 1/9) / 4 = -1/180

Therefore, the average slope of the function on the interval (5, 9) is -1/180.

(B) By the Mean Value Theorem, we know there exists a c in the open interval (5, 9) such that f'(c) is equal to this mean slope.

The derivative of f(x) = 1/x is f'(x) = -1/x^2.

Setting f'(c) = -1/180, we get:

-1/c^2 = -1/180

Answer:

21.8014 degrees (to 4 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation y=2/5x+9 forms a certain angle with the x-axis.  Note that all lines parallel to y=2/5x+9 also form the same angle with the x-axis, due to Corresponding Angles (the fact that the original line has a y-intercept of 9 is irrelevant).  Therefore, we could simplify this problem slightly by considering the angle that y=2/5x (a y-intercept of 0) forms with the x-axis.

To find the angle that this line makes with the x-axis, we'll need the vertex (the origin -- let's call this point "B"), and one point on each of two rays from the vertex (Let Ray #1 be the ray from the origin directly to the right; and let Ray #2 be the ray from the origin extending into Quadrant I -- up and to the right, along the equation y=2/5x).

One point on Ray #1 is (5,0) -- it is on the positive x-axis.  Call this point "A"

One point on Ray #2 is (5,2) -- inputting "5" for x, the result for y is "2"  Call this point "C"

To find the angle (Angle ABC), observe that the three points form a right triangle (the angle CAB is a right angle because the two lines are perpendicular).

To solve for [tex]\angle ABC[/tex], recall the definition of the tangent function:

[tex]tan(\theta)=\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

The Opposite side, side AC, is just the height (or the y-value) of point C.  So, opposite = 2.

The Adjacent side, side BA, is just the x-coordinate of point A (and also point C).  So adjacent = 5.

Substituting these known values into the tangent function, we get the following:

[tex]tan(m\angle ABC)=\dfrac{2}{5}[/tex]

To solve for the measure of angle ABC, we need to apply the inverse tangent function (also known as arctangent).

[tex]arctan(tan(m\angle ABC)=arctan(\dfrac{2}{5})[/tex]

The left side simplifies because they are inverse functions:[tex]m\angle ABC=arctan(\dfrac{2}{5})[/tex]

Calculating the right side of the equation (rounding to 4 decimal places):

[tex]m\angle ABC \approx 21.8014^{o}[/tex]

dV = (∂V/∂r)dr + (∂V/∂h)dh

We have:

∂V/∂r = (2/3)πrh and ∂V/∂h = (1/3)πr²

Substituting the given values, we get:

∂V/∂r = (2/3)π(10 cm)(25 cm) = 500π/3

∂V/∂h = (1/3)π(10 cm)² = 100π/3

Substituting into the differential equation, we get:

dV = (500π/3)dr + (100π/3)dh

Using the given maximum error of 0.1 cm for both r and h, we have:

|dr| ≤ 0.1 cm and |dh| ≤ 0.1 cm

Therefore, the maximum possible error in V is given by:

|dV| = |(500π/3)(0.1 cm) + (100π/3)(0.1 cm)|

|dV| = 50π/3 + 10π/3

|dV| = 60π/3

|dV| = 20π cm³

Therefore, the estimated maximum error in the calculated volume of the cone is 20π cubic centimeters.

The probability of a defect in the manufacturing process, assuming that the weight of the products follows a normal distribution, is 0.1587 to four decimal places.

To calculate the probability of a defect, we first need to calculate the z-score of the weight that would classify the product as a defect. The z-score is a measure of how many standard deviations a value is from the mean. In this case, the z-score is -1 or 1, depending on whether the weight is less than one standard deviation below the mean or greater than one standard deviation above the mean.

Once we have calculated the z-score, we can use a standard normal distribution table or a calculator to find the probability of a product being classified as a defect. If the z-score is -1, the probability of a product being classified as a defect is 0.1587. If the z-score is 1, the probability of a product being classified as a defect is also 0.1587.
