Brittany is giving her sister 2/5 of her shell collection . How many 1/15s of her shell collection is she giving her sister?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Brittany is sharing number of [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex]s with her sister = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the shell collection of Brittany = x

She is giving [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] of her shell collection to her sister.

Therefore, shells received by her sister = [tex]\frac{2x}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex]th of her shell collection = [tex]\frac{x}{15}[/tex]

Number of [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex]s her sister received = [tex]\frac{\text{Total shells received by Brittany's sister}}{\frac{1}{15}th \text{part of Brittany's shells}}[/tex]

                                                         = [tex]\frac{\frac{2x}{5}}{\frac{x}{15} }[/tex]

                                                         = [tex]\frac{2x}{5}\times \frac{15}{x}[/tex]

                                                         = 6

Therefore, number of [tex]\frac{1}{15}[/tex] received by her sister = 6

Can someone please help me with continuity? I would like to check my work, I’m a bit confused on the differentiability part

Answers

For f to be continuous at some point x = c, you require that

f(c) exists and is finite, and

• the limits of f as x approaches c from either side match, and their value must be f(c)

For f to be differentiable at x = c, you require that

f is continuous at c (i.e. the above conditions are all met), and

• the derivative f ' is continuous at c

Without having the graph of f ', you can assess whether the last condition is met by some function by mentally tracing a tangent line to the graph as you get closer to c. If the slope of the tangent doesn't change, then the function is differentiable. This is usually accompanied by jumps or sharp corners in the graph.

Some examples:

• every polynomial is both continuous and differentiable

• the absolute value function |x| is continuous but not differentiable at x = 0

• 1/x is neither continuous nor differentiable at x = 0

(a) Neither continuous nor differentiable

Why? f has a vertical asymptote at x = -2 and f (-2) does not exist. f is not continuous, and therefore not differentiable.

(b) Neither continuous nor differentiable

Why? From the left, f is approaching 2.5, while from the right, it's approaching 5.

(c) Neither continuous nor differentiable

Why? The limits from either side of x = 2 match and are equal to 0.5, but f (2) itself does not exist (which is indicated by the point being a hollow circle).

If the circle was instead filled in, so that f (2) = 0.5, then f would be continuous there, but still not differentiable. Notice the sharp corner. Or, using the tangent-line analysis, the slope of the tangent to the left of x = 2 is negative, but to the right it would be positive.

(d) Both continuous and differentiable

Why? f doesn't have any special features at x = 3 that would suggest it's not continuous nor differentiable.

(e) Neither continuous nor differentiable

Why? Similar reasoning as in (a). There's another vertical asymptote, but the graph shows f (4) = 1. However, the limits from either side of x = 4 are positive infinity, not 1.

Answers

Answer:

x = 206.7

Step-by-step explanation:

law of sines:

sin 90° / x = sin 43° / 141

sin 43° · x = 141

x = 141 / sin 43°

The measure of the length of the hypotenuse is 206.75 and the measure of the length of the base is 151.20 units.

What is a right-angle triangle?

It is a type of triangle in which one angle is 90 degrees and it follows the Pythagoras theorem and we can use the trigonometry function.

The perpendicular is 141 and the angle opposite to the perpendicular is 43 degrees. Then the value of the base and hypotenuse will be

The length of the base will be

[tex]\rm \dfrac{141}{y} = \tan 43^o\\\\y\ \ \ = \dfrac{141}{ \tan 43^o}\\\\y \ \ \ = 151.20[/tex]

Then the length of the hypotenuse will be

[tex]\rm x = \dfrac{141}{\sin 43^o}\\\\x = 206.75[/tex]

Write the equation for the graphed function

Answers

Answer:

4x² + 16x + 15 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by determining the solutions to the graph.

The solutions to the graph is obtained by taking the values where the graph cut through the x–axis. This is illustrated below:

The solutions to the graph are:

x = –1.5 or –2.5

Finally, we shall determine the equation for the graph as follow:

x = –1.5 or x = –2.5

x = –3/2 or x = –5/2

Cross multiply

2x = –3 or 2x = –5

Rearrange

2x + 3 = 0 or 2x + 5 = 0

Combine

(2x + 3)(2x + 5) = 0

Expand

2x(2x + 5) + 3(2x + 5) = 0

4x² + 10x + 6x + 15 = 0

4x² + 16x + 15 = 0

Thus, the equation for the graph is:

4x² + 16x + 15 = 0

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC, which is 9z - 1, and CBD, which is 6z + 58, make up ABD, which is a total of 87 degrees.

in order to find the measurement of ABC, you first need to solve for z.

since ABC and CBD make up ABD, add those measurements and set them equal to 87, which is the measure of ABD.

9z - 1 + 6z + 58 = 87

combine like terms starting with the z terms. (it doesn't matter which like terms you combine first)

9z - 1 + 6z + 58 = 87 ⇒ 15z - 1 + 58 = 87

combine the next set of like terms.

15z - 1 + 58 = 87 ⇒ 15z + 57 = 87

subtract 57 from both sides of the equation. it'll cancel itself out on the left, leaving you with 15z = 30 after subtracting 57 from 87.

divide both sides of the equation by 15.

15z/15 = 30/15z = 2

now, plug in 2 for z in each of your equations for the measurements of ABC and CBD.

ABC = 9z - 1 ⇒ 9(2) - 1 ⇒ 18 - 1 ⇒ 17

CBD = 6z + 58 ⇒ 6(2) + 58 ⇒ 12 + 58 ⇒ 70

now, your measurements are

ABD: 87

ABC: 17

CBD: 70

check your work by adding the measurements of ABC and CBD and setting them equal to ABD, or 87.

17 + 70 = 87

87 = 87

since both sides of the equation are equal to 87, you know that your measurements are correct.

therefore, the measure of ABC is 17 degrees.

7 out of 12 are girls   (multiply both sides of equation by 3 because 3x12 = 36)

so: 15 out of 36 are boys

so: 21 out of 36 are girls

21-15 = 6 more girls than boys

Answer: There are 6 more girls than boys

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many more girls there are we need to find what one block equals to.

We use this equation to find it.

36 = ( 5 + 7 )x

36 = 12x

3 = x

or

x = 3 (same thing)

So each block represents 3 girls/boys

The girls have 2 more meaning there are 6 more girls than boys.

Ally and Beck went fishing and caught a total of 75 fish. At home,
Ally told Jair she caught twice as many fish as she actually caught.
Beck told Jair he caught three times as many fish as he actually
caught. If what they told Jair had been true, then Ally would have
caught 75 fewer fish than Beck. How many fish did Beck actually
catch?

Answers

Answer:

Beck actually caught 45 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

System of Equations

We call the following variables:

x = number of fish Ally caught

y = number of fish Beck caught

They caught a total of 75 fish, thus:

x + y = 75      [1]

If Ally had caught twice as much fish as she actually did, and Beck had caught three times as many fish as he actually did, then Ally would have caught 75 fewer fish than Beck, thus:

3y = 2x + 75      [2]

From [1]:

x = 75 - y      [3]

Substituting in [2]:

3y = 2(75 - y) + 75

Operating:

3y = 150 - 2y + 75

Simplifying:

5y = 225

Dividing by 5:

y = 45

Beck actually caught 45 fish

Answer:

Beck caught 45 fish

Step-by-step explanation:

a = number of fish Ally caught

b = number of fish Beck caught

They caught a total of 75 fish, so we have:

b + a = 75  

From the facts in our question we know Ally would have caught 75 fewer fish than Beck.

3b = 2a + 75  

a = 75 - b

3b = 2(75 - b) + 75

3b = 150 - 2b + 75

5b = 225

5b ÷ 5 = 225 ÷ 5

b = 45

Beck caught 45 fish.

In triangle DEF, if the measures of angles D and E are equal, and the measure of
angle F is 26, what are the measure of angles D and E?
Your answer


Answers

Answer:

77 = m∠D  =  m∠E

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle the sum of the measures of the angles = 180.  So m∠D  + m∠E + m∠F = 180

Let  m∠D = m∠E = x

Then x + x + 26 = 180

2x + 26 = 180

2x = 154

x = 77 = m∠D  =  m∠E

Answers

Answer:

obtuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 5 = a, 7 = b, 10 = c

if a^2 + b^2 = c^2, then the triangle is a right triangle by the converse of the Pythagorean Theorem

If a^2 + b^2 > c^2, then the triangle is an acute triangle by Theorem 8-4

if a^2 + b^2 < c^2, then the triangle is an obtuse triangle by Theorem 8-3

a^2 = 25

b^2 = 49

c^2 = 100

25 + 49 < 100, therefore the triangle is an obtuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles are related in this geometry by being either congruent or supplementary. Corresponding and vertical angles are congruent; any linear pair of angles is supplementary.

The given angle 5 is on the southwest corner of the intersection of the parallel line with the transversal. All southwest and northeast angles are congruent to that. That is, angles 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 will all have the same measure. The remaining angles will have the supplementary measure.

Angles 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 are 82°

Angles 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 12 are 98°

_____

As you know, supplementary angles total 180°, so each is found by subtracting the other from 180°: 180° -82° = 98°.
