Given:
The American marriage rate R, x years after 1960 is defined by the function
[tex]R(x)=-0.0065x^2 +0.23x + 8.47[/tex]
To find:
The year in which the marriage rate is the highest.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]R(x)=-0.0065x^2 +0.23x + 8.47[/tex]
It is a quadratic function with negative leading coefficient. So, it is a downward parabola and vertex of downward parabola is maximum.
If a quadratic function is [tex]f(x)=ax^2+bx+c[/tex], then
[tex]Vertex=\left(\dfrac{-b}{2a},f(\dfrac{-b}{2a})\right)[/tex]
In the given function,
[tex]a=-0.0065,b=0.23,c=8.47[/tex]
Now, x-coordinate of vertex is
[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{0.23}{2(-0.0065)}[/tex]
[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}=-\dfrac{0.23}{-0.013}[/tex]
[tex]-\dfrac{b}{2a}\approx 17.69[/tex]
It means the marriage rate is highest after 17 years of 1960.
[tex]1960+17=1977[/tex]
Therefore, the marriage rate is highest in year 1977.
What is the nature of the solution set to the following system of equations?
5x - y = 2
2x -0.5y = 3
O One solution at (-4,-4)
O Infinitely many solutions
O One solution at (-4,-22)
ONo solutions
Answer:
One solution at (-4, -22)
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - y = 2
y = 5x - 2 --(1)
2x - 0.5y = 3 --(2)
sub (1) into (2):
2x - 0.5(5x - 2) = 3
2x - 2.5x + 1 = 3
-0.5x = 2
x = -4
when x = -4, y = 5(-4) - 2 = -22
The nature of the solution set to the system of equations are,
⇒ One solution at (-4,-22).
What is an expression?Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Given that;
The system of equations are,
5x - y = 2 .. (i)
2x - 0.5y = 3 .. (ii)
Now, We can simplify as;
From (i);
5x - y = 2
y = 5x - 2
Put above value in (ii);
2x - 0.5 (5x -2) = 3
2x - 2.5x + 1 = 3
- 0.5x = 2
x = - 4
From (i);
y = 5 × - 4 - 2
y = - 20 - 2
y = - 22
Thus, The nature of the solution set to the system of equations are,
⇒ One solution at (-4,-22).

Antonio, Lucas y Darío compraron un refresco de 5/2 (2litros y 1/2) que piensan repartir en partes iguales. a) ¿Qué fracción de litro le corresponde a cada uno? b) Una vez repartido el refresco llego Benjamín a quien van a convidarle. ¿Cuánto debe convidarle cada uno para que los cuatro tengan la misma cantidad de refresco?
Answer:
a) A Antonio, Lucas y Darío le corresponde cada uno [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] litros.
b) Antonio, Lucas y Benjamín deben convidar cada uno [tex]\frac{5}{24}[/tex] litros.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Antonio, Lucas y Darío compraron un refresco, el cual reparten en tres partes iguales. Por tanto, la fracción de litro para cada persona es la capacidad del refresco dividido por el número de personas. Es decir:
[tex]x = \frac{\frac{5}{2}\,L }{3}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{5}{6}\,L[/tex]
A Antonio, Lucas y Darío le corresponde cada uno [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] litros.
b) En primer lugar calculamos la fracción correspondiente a cuatro personas:
[tex]x = \frac{\frac{5}{2}\,L }{4}[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{5}{8}\,L[/tex]
Ahora, procedemos a calcular la diferencia entre el escenario calculado en a) y el resultado anterior:
[tex]\Delta x = \frac{5}{6}\,L-\frac{5}{8}\,L[/tex]
[tex]\Delta x = \frac{40-30}{48} \,L[/tex]
[tex]\Delta x = \frac{10}{48}\,L[/tex]
[tex]\Delta x = \frac{5}{24}\,L[/tex]
Este resultado corresponde a la fracción que Antonio, Lucas y Darío deben convidar cada uno a Benjamín. Entonces, Antonio, Lucas y Benjamín deben convidar cada uno [tex]\frac{5}{24}[/tex] litros.
A jar can hold of a pound of flour. Austin empties of a pound of flour into the jar. What fraction of the jar is filled? Enter your answer in numerical form.
Answer:
2/3 of the jar was filled with flour
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
A jar can hold 3/4 of a pound of flour. Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar. What fraction of the jar is filled? Enter your answer in numerical form.
Given
Amount a jar can hold a = 3/4 of a pound of flour
If Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar, then the amount emptied into the jar b = 1/2 pounds
Fraction of jar filled will be expressed as b/a as shown;
b/a = (1/2)/(3/4)
b/a = 1/2 ÷ 3/4
b/a = 1/2 * 4/3
b/a = 4/6
Simplify to the lowest term
a/b = 2*2/2*3
a/b = 2/3
Hence 2/3 of the jar was filled with flour

Tobin is solving the equation 3 (x minus 1.25) = 11.25. His work is shown below.
3 (x minus 1.25) = 11.25. 3 x minus 3.75 = 11.25. 3 x minus 3.75 + 3.75 = 11.25 + 3.75. 3 x = 15. 3 x times 3 = 45 times 3. x = 135.
What mistake did Tobin make?

A car can travel 264 miles on 11 gallons of gasoline. How far can it travel on 2
gallons?
Answer:
The answer is 48 miles.
My Logic
If you divide 264 into 11, then you will get 24. 24 is the cars MPG. Then you can Multiply 24 by 2 and you get the answer. Hope this is helpful!
Use the diagram to find the measure of angle KHL.
Answer:
m∠KHL = 43°
Step-by-step explanation:
From the picture attached,
m∠KHL ≅ m∠GHL [Given in the picture]
Now substituting the values of the angles,
(3x + 1) = (5x - 27)
1 + 27 = 5x - 3x
28 = 2x
14 = x
m∠KHL = (3x + 1)° = (3 × 14) + 1
= 42 + 1
= 43°
Therefore, measure of ∠KHL = 43°

I need help with another one! Thankyou guys this means alot to me
Answer:
9.5 = y
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to use the cosine function equation.
cos(38) = [tex]\frac{y}{12}[/tex]
Multiply 12 on both sides.
12cos(38) = y
Solve.
9.46 = y
Answer:
9.5
Step-by-step explanation:
y is the adjacent side of the given 38 degree angle. You are given the hypotenuse of right angle triangle. So the trig function that you need to use is the Cosine
Cos(38) = y / 12
multiply both sides by 12
12*cos(38) = 12*y/12
12*cos(38) = y
12*0.7880= y
y =9.456

Solve for b 2 in A = h(b 1+b 2), if A = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.
b 2 =
Answer:1
Step-by-step explanation: substitute all the corresponding terms so you get, 16=4(3+b2)
Then you multiply and get 16=12+4b2 then subtract 12 from both sides to get 4=4b2 and then divided both sides by 4 and you get 1=b2
Answer:1
Step-by-step explanation: A = h(b 1+b 2)
16=4(3+b2)
16/4=3+b2
4=3+b2

It took everly 55 minutes to run a 10-kilometer race last weekend. If you know that 1 kilometer equals 0.621 mile, how many mintues did it take everly to run 1 mile during the race?
Answer:
8.9 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Converting Everly Kilometer race to miles
1 km = 0.621 miles
10 km =
10 × 0.621 miles
= 6.21 miles
Hence,
6.21 miles = 55 minutes
1 mile = x minutes
Cross Multiply
6.21 × x = 55 × 1
x = 55 minutes/6.21
x = 8.8566827697 minutes
Approximately = 8.9 minutes
