In 1990, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $95 per credit hour. In 1999, tuition had risen to $221 per credit hour. Determine a linear function C(x) to represent the cost of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990 C(x)= *answer here*
Answer:
The cost of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990, is C(x)= 14*(x-1990) + 95
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the following form:
y= m*x + b
where
m is the slope of the function n is the ordinate (at the origin) of the functionSo, in this case: C(x)= m*( x-1990) + b where x is the number of years since 1990.
Given the coordinates of two points, it is possible to determine the slope m of the line from them using the following formula:
[tex]m=\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}[/tex]
In this case, you know that in 1990, the cost of tuition at a large Midwestern university was $95 per credit hour. And in 1999, tuition had risen to $221 per credit hour. So:
x1= 1990y1= 95x2= 1999y2= 221So the value of m is:
[tex]m=\frac{221 - 95}{1999 - 1990}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{126}{9}[/tex]
m= 14
So C(x)= 14*( x-1990) + b. In 1999, tuition had risen to $221 per credit hour. Replacing:
221= 14*(1999 - 1990) + b
221= 14*9 +b
221= 126 + b
221 - 126= b
95= b
Finally, the cost of tuition as a function of x, the number of years since 1990, is C(x)= 14*(x-1990) + 95
1. Brad invested $2,300 in a corporate bond
that pays 14% interest compounded
continuously. How long will it take
Brad's investment to triple?
Given:
Principal value = $2300
Rate of interest = 14% compounded continuously.
To find:
The time taken by Brad's investment to triple.
Solution:
The formula for amount after the compound interest (Continuously) is:
[tex]A=Pe^{rt}[/tex]
Where, P is the principal, r is the rate of interest in decimal and t is the time period.
Triple of Brad's investment is
[tex]3\times \$ 2300=\$ 6900[/tex]
Substituting [tex]A=6900,P=2300\ r=0.14[/tex], we get
[tex]6900=2300e^{0.14t}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{6900}{2300}=e^{0.14t}[/tex]
[tex]3=e^{0.14t}[/tex]
Taking natural log on both sides, we get
[tex]\ln 3=\ln e^{0.14t}[/tex]
[tex]1.0986=0.14t[/tex] [tex][\because \ln e^x=x][/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{1.0986}{0.14}=t[/tex]
[tex]7.84714=t[/tex]
After approximating the value, we get
[tex]t\approx 7.85[/tex]
Therefore, Brad's investment will take 7.85 years to triple.

Is the following shape a rectangle? How do you know?
Which of the following is the solution set for -3t + 11 > 20?
t < 3
t > 3
t < -3
t > -3
Answer:
t < -3
Step-by-step explanation:
-3t + 11 > 20
subtract 11 from both sides
-3t > 9
Divide both sides by -3
when multipying or dividing by a negative the inequality must be reversed
t < -3
The temperature rose by 15°C from morning till noon. If the temperature
was less than 50°C at noon, write and solve an inequality to show the
possible temperature in the morning (use t to represent the temperature
in the morning)

Answer:
y = 3x - 30
Step-by-step explanation:
First, put both equations into slope-intercept form.
x + 3y - 4 = 0
3y = -x + 4
y = (-1/3)x + (4/3)
2x + 5y - 20 = 0
5y = -2x + 20
y = (-2/5)x + 4
For a line to be perpendicular to y = (-1/3)x + (4/3), its slope should be the opposite and reciprocal of this line's slope.
The slope of y = (-1/3)x + (4/3) is (-1/3). The slope of a perpendicular line is 3.
To find the x-intercept of y = (-2/5)x + 4, plug in 0 for y and find x.
0 = (-2/5)x + 4
x = 10
The equation of the line right now is y = 3x + b
Plug in (10, 0) to find the y-intercept.
0 = 3(10) + b
b = -30
The equation of the line is y = 3x - 30
What is the decay factor in the exponential decay function y=a (1-r) t
Answer:
in this form, the "-r" would cause the result to decrease
I assume that the answer is "r"
if r = .1 (10 %) then 1-.1 = .9
if you have 100 items then y = 100(.9)^1 = 90
the total decreased by 10% ... y = 100(.9)^2 after 2 time periods

Mrs. Laser is building a new space for her chickens. She has 80 feet of fencing. What is the greatest fencing area she could create using fencing?
Answer:
400 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
It can be shown that a square area is the most efficient way in which to use fencing. If the area is not square, the area will inevitably be smaller.
Calculus is the tool most often used in higher math to solve optimization problems.
But the same goal can be achieved in this problem by working with constraints:
If x and y are the length and width respectively, then
2x + 2y = 80 ft, or x + y = 40, or x = 40 - y. This is one constraint.
The other constraint involves the area: A = x*y, or A = (40 - y)*y. To maximize this, we need to rewrite (40 - y)*y in standard form:
A = 40y - y^2, or, finally, A = -y^2 + 40 y. The coefficients of this quadratic are -1, 40 and 0; the axis of symmetry is thus
x = -b/ [2a], or, in this case, x = -40/[2*(-1)], or x = 20.
Thus, If x = 20, y = 20 also, proving that the shape of the enclosed yard is that of a square.
Then Mrs. L' 80 feet of fencing is sufficient to construct a 20 ft by 20 ft space, which comes out to a maximum area of 400 ft^2.

A positive real number is 4 less than another. If the sum of the squares of the two numbers is 72, then find the numbers.
Answer:
Our two numbers are:
[tex]2+4\sqrt{2} \text{ and } 4\sqrt{2}-2[/tex]
Or, approximately 7.66 and 3.66.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two numbers be a and b.
One positive real number is four less than another. So, we can write that:
[tex]b=a-4[/tex]
The sum of the squares of the two numbers is 72. Therefore:
[tex]a^2+b^2=72[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]a^2+(a-4)^2=72[/tex]
Solve for a. Expand:
[tex]a^2+(a^2-8a+16)=72[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]2a^2-8a+16=72[/tex]
Divide both sides by two:
[tex]a^2-4a+8=36[/tex]
Subtract 36 from both sides:
[tex]a^2-4a-28=0[/tex]
The equation isn't factorable. So, we can use the quadratic formula:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
In this case, a = 1, b = -4, and c = -28. Substitute:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{(-4)^2-4(1)(-28)}}{2(1)}[/tex]
Evaluate:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{4\pm\sqrt{128}}{2}=\frac{4\pm8\sqrt{2}}{2}=2\pm4\sqrt{2}[/tex]
So, our two solutions are:
[tex]\displaystyle x_1=2+4\sqrt{2}\approx 7.66\text{ or } x_2=2-4\sqrt{2}\approx-3.66[/tex]
Since the two numbers are positive, we can ignore the second solution.
So, our first number is:
[tex]a=2+4\sqrt{2}[/tex]
And since the second number is four less, our second number is:
[tex]b=(2+4\sqrt{2})-4=4\sqrt{2}-2\approx 3.66[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]2+4\sqrt{2}\text{ and }4\sqrt{2}-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the large number be [tex]x[/tex]. We can represent the smaller number with [tex]x-4[/tex]. Since their squares add up to 72, we have the following equation:
[tex]x^2+(x-4)^2=72[/tex]
Expand [tex](x-4)^2[/tex] using the property [tex](a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2[/tex]:
[tex]x^2+x^2-2(4)(x)+16=72[/tex]
Combine like terms:
[tex]2x^2-8x+16=72[/tex]
Subtract 72 from both sides:
[tex]2x^2-8x-56=0[/tex]
Use the quadratic formula to find solutions for [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex] for [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex]
In [tex]2x^2-8x-56[/tex], assign:
[tex]a\implies 2[/tex] [tex]b \implies -8[/tex] [tex]c\implies -56[/tex]Solving, we get:
[tex]x=\frac{-(-8)\pm \sqrt{(-8)^2-4(2)(-56)}}{2(2)},\\x=\frac{8\pm 16\sqrt{2}}{4},\\\begin{cases}x=\frac{8+16\sqrt{2}}{4}, x=\boxed{2+4\sqrt{2}} \\x=\frac{8-16\sqrt{2}}{4}, x=\boxed{2-4\sqrt{2}}\end{cases}[/tex]
Since the question stipulates that [tex]x[/tex] is positive, we have [tex]x=\boxed{2+4\sqrt{2}}[/tex]. Therefore, the two numbers are [tex]2+4\sqrt{2}[/tex] and [tex]4\sqrt{2}-2[/tex].
Verify:
[tex](2+4\sqrt{2})^2+(4\sqrt{2}-2)^2=72\:\checkmark[/tex]

Graph the system of inequalities {y>2x+1/ y>|x|. Which two quadrants does the solution lie in?
Answer:
Option (1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to graph the system of inequalities given.
y > 2x + 1 -----(1)
y > |x| --------(2)
For inequality (1),
Solution area will be the area above the dotted line y = 2x + 1
Similarly, solution area of the second inequality will be the area above the dotted lines of y = |x|
Solution area of the system of inequalities will be the common area of both the graphs of the given system.
That will lie in quadrants 1 and 2.
Option (1) will be the answer.
