The water level in a reservoir is now 52 meters. If this was a 23% increase, what was the initial depth?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

40.04

Step-by-step explanation:

It was at 40.04 before the 23% increase. To find 23 % of 52 set it up as a inequality.

x/52 = 23/100

Cross multiply

52 * 23 =  1,196    100 * x =100x

Now solve for x.

100x /100 = 1,196/100          x = 11.96

Subtract answer from 52 to get answer

52 - 11.96 = 40.04

T is 375 miles from San Francisco to Los Angeles. On a map of California, the scale shows that 2 centimeters equals 10 actual miles. How far apart on the map are the two cities?

Answers

Answer:

75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of centimeter to miles is 2:10 or 1:5 (1 cm = 5 mi)

this ratio can be changed to a fraction (1/5)

so now we can set up this equation:

(1/5) = (x/375)

where x = cm on the map

if it makes it easier to understand:

(1cm/5mi) = (xcm/375mi)

now we solve for x:

375(1/5) = x

x = 375/5

x = 75 cm

Jarvis bought 2 beach towels and 3 pairs of swim trunks at a retail store. Each beach towel costs $3 less than a pair of swim trunks. He spent a total of $79. Let s represent the cost of a pair of swim trunks.

Part B
Add the two expressions and set this sum equal to 79 to model the situation with an equation. Solve for s . What is the cost of one pair of swim trunks?

Answers

A)  The equation that represents the cost of a pair of swim trunks is;

2(s - 3) + s = 79

B) The cost of a pair of swim trunks is; $28.33

How to solve Algebra Word Problems?

Algebraic word problems are defined as questions that require translation of sentences to equations, and thereafter solving those equations.

Let the cost of one pair of swim trucks be s.

We are told that Each beach towel costs $3 less than a pair of swim trunks. Thus;

Cost of each beach trunk = (s - 3)

Jarvis bought 2 beach towels and 3 pairs of swim trunks at a retail store. Thus, we have;

2(s - 3) + s = 79

2s - 6 + s = 79

3s = 79 + 6

3s = 85

s = 85/3

s = $28.33

other solution to the equation f(x) = 0 ?

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Conjugate root theorem:

If (a - bi) is a root of a polynomial with real coefficients, then (a + bi) will be the other root.

By this theorem, if (3 - 2i) is one root of the quadratic function 'f', other root will be (3 + 2i).

Therefore, x = (3 + 2i) will be the other root.

Option (C) will be the answer.

Answer:

Domain: interval: [0,∞], Words: All real numbers greater than or equal to 0, Inequality: x≥0.

Range: interval: [0,∞], Words: All real numbers greater than or equal to 0, Inequality: y≥0.

The domain and range of the function shown is

domain  [tex]x\geq 0[/tex]

range [tex]y\geq 0[/tex]

Given :

The graph of  the area of a rectangle changes with the length if it’s width is fixed

We need to find out the domain and range from the given graph

Domain is the set of x values on the graph

We can say the graph starts at x=0  and it goes up to infinity

So, domain is [tex]x\geq 0[/tex]

Range is the set of y values for which the function defined

Range is the set of y values on graph

When we look at y values , the graph starts at y=0 and it goes up to infinity

So, range is [tex]y\geq 0[/tex]

The area of a rectangular door is 21 ft. Sq. The border around the door is 20 feet. What is the length and width of the door? Use the factors of 21 to help you find the area of the door first.

Answers

Answer:

Length = 7 feet, and width is 3 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given rectangular door,

area = length x width

21 = length x width ................. 1

Also,

perimeter = 2 ( length + width)

20 = 2 ( length + width)

10 = length + width ............ 1

Given that the factors of 21 are required to get the are of the door.

Then, from equation 1;

21 = 7 x 3

And from equation 2;

10 = 7 + 3

So that, the length of the door is 7 feet and its width is 3 feet.

Answers

Answer:

  A.  Subtract 6 from the x value to get the y value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes, it works well to simply try the answers to see what works. Sometimes, it works better to use a point other than the first or second.

Using the last point (x, y) = (16, 10), we can try the rules:

  subtract 6 from x: 16 -6 = 10 . . . this rule works

  multiply by 1/2: 16×1/2 = 8, not 10 . . . doesn't work

  multiply by 1/4: 16×1/4 = 4, not 10 . . . doesn't work

  add 6 to x: 16 +6 = 22, not 10 . . . doesn't work

The only rule that works is ...

  Subtract 6 from the x value to get the y value.

Additional comments

You cannot always assume the table represents a linear function. In this case, all of the answer choices are linear functions, so that is a reasonable assumption. The x-values all have the same difference: 4. The y-values also all have the same difference: 4. So the slope of the line is 4/4 = 1, which tells you right away that "multiply by 1/2" and "multiply by 1/4" will be wrong.

The x-values are all greater than the y-values, so "add 6 to the x value" will not be correct. Since the slope is 1, the difference between x and y will be a constant, easily found from any table entry.

  y = x + b . . . . equation of a line with a slope of 1

  2 = 8 + b . . . . using the first table entry

  -6 = b . . . . . . . subtract 8

Then ...

  y = x - 6

Answers

Answer:

s ≤ 60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed limit is given in order not to exceed it

Therefore the equation would be:

s = 60 is allowed as per the equation, since you are not exceeding this speed.  As per the rule, s = 60 mph is the maximum speed at which the vehicle is permitted to travel.
