Jake has two dogs, Euclid and Pythagoras. Euclid is a smaller dog and Pythagoras is larger. Jake found that Pythagoras lost 13 pounds from January to June. If Pythagoras gains 1.2 times Euclid's weight, Pythagoras's weight would still be 1/4 pound less than he did in January. What is Euclid's weight? (a) Write an equation that represents the scenario. Begin by defining your variable (b) Solve the equation. Show your work. (c) What is Euclid's weight? (d) Jake adopts a third dog, Riemann. Riemann weighs exactly twice what Euclid weighs. The combined 1 pounds. What is Riemann's weight, and what is Pythagoras's weight? weight of the three dogs is Show your work.​

Answers

Answer 1

The weight of Euclid is 10.625 pounds, and the weight of Riemann is 21.25 pounds.

Let the current weight of Euclid = xLet the current weight of Pythagoras = TLet the January weight of Pythagoras = y

The expression that represents the given scenario is written as;

when Pythagoras lost 13 pounds: T =  y - 13when Pythagoras gains 1.2 times Euclid's weight: = T + 1.2x

when Pythagoras weight is 1/4 pound less than weight in January:

T + 1.2x + 0.25 = y

y- 13 + 1.2x + 0.25 = y

1.2x - 12.75 = 0

Euclid's weight is calculated as follows;

1.2x = 12.75

[tex]x = \frac{12.75}{1.2} \\\\x = 10.625 \ pounds[/tex]

The weight of Riemann is calculated as follows;

[tex]= 2 (10.625)\\\\= 21.25 \ pounds[/tex]

What are the coordinates of B

Answers

Answer:

(-4,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the midpoint for x = sum of x/2=2

The coordinates of the midpoint for y = sum of y/2=-2

firstly to work out x coordinate:

[tex] \frac{x + 8}{2} = 2[/tex]

rearrange to find x which is -4

work out y coordinate:

[tex]\frac{y + 1}{2} = - 2[/tex]

rearrange to find y which is -5

so coordinates are (-4,-5)

Y"=2y'+y=e^x

Answers

You likely mean to write the differential equation,

y'' - 2y' + y = exp(x)

The homogeneous part

y'' - 2y' + y = 0

has characteristic equation

r² - 2r + 1 = (r - 1)² = 0

with a root at r = 1 with multiplicity 2, so the characteristic solution is

y = C₁ exp(x) + C₂ x exp(x)

For the particular solution, we assume an ansatz

y = ax² exp(x)

where a is an unknown constant. Differentiating the ansatz twice:

y' = ax² exp(x) + 2ax exp(x) = (ax² + 2ax) exp(x)

y'' = (ax² + 2ax) exp(x) + (2ax + 2a) exp(x) = (ax² + 4ax + 2a) exp(x)

Substitute y and its derivatives into the DE:

(ax² + 4ax + 2a) exp(x) - 2 (ax² + 2ax) exp(x) + ax² exp(x) = exp(x)

Solve for a :

(ax² + 4ax + 2a) - 2 (ax² + 2ax) + ax² = 1

2a = 1

a = 1/2

Then the particular solution is

y = 1/2 x² exp(x)

The general solution is then

y = C₁ exp(x) + C₂ x exp(x) + 1/2 x² exp(x)

Find a polynomial with the following zeros.

HELPPPP ASAPPP

Answers

Answer:

x³ - 4x² + 2x + 4 = 0

Here's how I solved this:

You start off by rewriting the zeros into factors:

1 - √3    →    x = 1 - √3    →    (x - 1 - √3)

  2        →    x = 2           →    (x - 2)

1 + √3   →    x = 1 + √3   →    (x - 1 + √3)

Now you want to multiply the factors together:

     (x - 1 - √3) · (x - 2) · (x - 1 + √3)

- Multiply the first two factors together -

                (x - 1 - √3) · (x - 2)

                              ↓

    (x · x - x · 2 - √3 · x + √3 · 2 - x + 2)

 

   - Combine like terms and simplify -

    (x · x - x · 2 - √3 · x + √3 · 2 - x + 2)

                              ↓

          (x² - 3x - √3 · x + 2√3 + 2)

      - Now multiply the third factor -

   (x² - 3x - √3 · x + 2√3 + 2)(x - 1 + √3)

                              ↓

(x² · x + x² · √3 - x² - 3x · x - 3x · √3 + 3x - √3 · xx - √3 · x · √3 +√3 · x + 2 · √3 · x + 2 · √3 · √3 - 2 · √3 + 2x + 2 · √3 - 2)

                              ↓

(x³ + x² · √3 - x² - 3x² - 3x · √3 + 3x - √3 + 3x - √3 * x² - x · 3 + √3 · x + 2 · √3 · x + 2 · 3 - 2 × √3 + 2x + 2 √3 - 2)

   - Combine like terms and simplify -

(x³ + x² · √3 - x² - 3x² - 3x · √3 + 3x - √3 + 3x - √3 * x² - x · 3 + √3 · x + 2 · √3 · x + 2 · 3 - 2 × √3 + 2x + 2 √3 - 2)

                              ↓

                 x³ - 4x² + 2x + 4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And there we get our solution: x³ - 4x² + 2x + 4

A boat is traveling at a constant speed. In 2 hours, the boat travels 180 miles. How many hours will it
take the boat to travel 225 miles?

Answers

Answer:

2 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1 hour, it would travel 90 miles.

For half of 90 which is 45 it would travel 1/2 hr.

225-180 is 45 miles, which is another half hr.

2 hrs plus 1/2 hr is 2 1/2 hours.

3

4

5

6

Answers

Answers;

Question 1 answer: The first and last option.

Question 1 explanation: 2(4x + 2) is 4x = 12 = 2 = 14 x 2 = 28 and 8x + 4 is 8 x 4 = 32 + 4 = 36 which is 8 more than 28 then, 3x = 9 + 2 + 3 x 2 = 28.

2(4x + 2) = 28 and 8x + 4 equals 36 which is 8 more and they're both equivalent to 2(3x + 2 + x) because 2(3x = 2 = x) equals 28.

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangle has 180 degrees in all

a square for an angle is 90 degrees

we can add them all together and get 180

90 + 45 + 8x + 21 = 180

combine like terms

156 + 8x = 180

subtract 156 to each side

8x = 24

then find x

x = 3

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

So the sum of angles of triangle is always 180 degrees.

We already have 45 and 90 but 8x+21 is unknown.

We can solve this by making an equation which is

45 + 90 + (8x+21) = 180.

If we solve this it will be

8x+21+135=180

8x+156 (-156) =180 (-156)

8x (/8) = 24 (/8)

x=3

Given that f(x) = ax – 5 and f(4) = 15, determine the value of a.

Answers

Given that f(x) = ax – 5 and f(4) = 15, then the value of a is 5

The given function is:

f(x)  =  ax  -  5

If f(4)  =  15, then x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into f(x) = ax - 5

f(4)  =  a(4)  -  5

15   =  4a   -  5

Solve for a by adding 5 to both sides

15  +  5  =  4a  -  5  +  5

20    =  4a

Divide both sides by 4

4a/4   =  20/4

a    =  5

Given that f(x) = ax – 5 and f(4) = 15, then the value of a is 5

If Miguel buys eggs and apples at the store.

• He pays a total of $6.17 for the eggs.

• He buys 8 bags of apples that each cost the same amount

The correct equation that represents the statement will be given as:

6.17 + 8x = 56.97

Make x the subject of the formula

8x = 56.97 - 6.17

8x = 50.8
