Ruben put an empty cup underneath a leaking faucet. After 1 ½ hours, Ruben had collected ¼ cup of water. What is the rate, in cups per hour, at which the water is leaking from the faucet? (Write your answer as a fraction)

Answers

Answer 1

Given :

Ruben put an empty cup underneath a leaking faucet.

After 1 ½ hours, Ruben had collected ¼ cup of water.

To Find :

The rate, in cups per hour, at which the water is leaking from the faucet.

Solution :

Rate in which cup is filling with water.

[tex]R=\dfrac{Portion\ of \ water \ filled }{Time\ taken}\\\\R = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{4}}{1\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\\R= \dfrac{1\times 2}{4\times 3}\\\\R = 0.167 \ cup/hour[/tex]

Therefore, the rate is 0.167 cup/hour.

Please find the derivative of [tex]x3^{(2x^2-1)}[/tex]. Show all of your work and explain as much as possible.

Answers

Hello! :)

[tex]\large\boxed{\frac{dy}{dx} = 3^{(2x^{2} - 1)} (4x^{2}ln3 + 1)}[/tex]

Use the Product Rule to solve for the derivative:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}= f(x) * g'(x) + g(x) * f'(x)[/tex]

We can divide the expression into two different functions:

[tex]f(x) = x\\\\g(x) = 3^{2x^{2} -1}[/tex]

Use the Product Rule equation and the following rules to solve for the derivative:

Derivative of an exponential function with base other than e:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} a^{u} = a^{u} * u' * lna[/tex]

Power rule:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} x^{n} = nx^{(n-1)}[/tex]

Find the derivatives using the power rule and derivative of an exponential function. Plug these into the product rule equation:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = x(3^{(2x^{2} -1)} * 4x* ln3) + (1)3^{(2x^{2} - 1)}[/tex]

Simplify by factoring out a common factor:  [tex]3^{(2x^{2} - 1)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = 3^{(2x^{2} - 1)}( x* 4x * ln3) + (1)[/tex]

Simplify further:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = 3^{(2x^{2} - 1)} (4x^{2}ln3 + 1)[/tex]

This is the final derivative.

~Apply product rules

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(x)3^{2x^2-1}+\frac{d}{dx}(3x^{2x^2-1})x\\\frac{d}{dx}=1\\(3^{2x^2-1})=4ln(3)*3x^{2x^2-1}x\\1*3^{2x^2-1}+4ln(3)*3^{2x^2-1}xx[/tex]

The length of one side of a shoebox is 8 centimeters more than twice the width. The base of the shoebox has an area of 72 square centimeter.
Write an equation to represent this situation with w representing the width in centimeter

Answers

Answer:  [tex]w^2+4w-36=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width of the base of the shoebox.

As per given ,

Length = 8+2w centimeters

Area of base = 72 square centimeter

Area of rectangle =  Length x width

[tex]\Rightarrow\ 72=w(2w+8)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 72= 2w^2+8w\\\\\Rightarrow\ 2w^2+8w-72=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ w^2+4w-36=0[/tex]

Required equation: [tex]w^2+4w-36=0[/tex]

mZWXY = |

Answers

Answer:

m∠WXY is 142°

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the exterior angle at one vertex of a triangle equals the sum of the measures of the opposite interior angles to this vertex

In ΔXYZ

∠WXY is an exterior angle at the vertex X

∠Y and ∠Z are the opposite interior angles to the vertex X

→ By using the rule above

m∠WXY = m∠Y + m∠Z

∵ m∠WXY = (2x - 2)°

∵ m∠Y = x° and m∠Z = 70°

→ Substitute them in the equation above

2x - 2 = x + 70

→ Subtract x from both sides

∵ 2x - x - 2 = x - x + 70

∴ x - 2 = 70

→ Add 2 to both sides

∵ x - 2 + 2 = 70 + 2

x = 72

→ To find the m∠WXY, substitute x by 72 in its measure

∵ m∠WXY = 2(72) - 2

∴ m∠WXY = 144 - 2

m∠WXY = 142°

If EF - 8x+ 17, PG - 37, and EG - 134, find the value of x. The drawing is not to scale.

The track team plans to buy new jerseys. If they buy more than 25 jerseys, the cost is $12.99 each. The total cost of the jerseys is a function of the number purchased, n. C(n) = 12.99n Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements below about the domain of this function.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A function shows the relationship between two variables (that is an independent variable and a dependent variable).

The domain of a function is the set of all input variables (that is independent variables).

Given the function C(n) = 12.99n, C(n) is the dependent variable representing the cost and n is the dependent variable which is the number of jerseys.

Since the customer has to buy more than 25 jerseys, the domain is:

Domain = 25 < n ≤ ∝

In VWX, VW = VX. If mV = 50°, what are measures of W and X?

mW =

mX =

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since VW = VX ; Two sides are equal, then it is an isosceles triangle.

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has 2 equal sides and 2 equal angles.

Given: m∠V = 50° ;

Since interior angles must total 180° the remaining 2 unknown angles must have a sum of 130°.

180° - 50° = 130°

130° / 2 = 65°

m∠W = 65° and m∠X = 65°

A road crew uses the triangles shown in the diagram to
measure the width of a sinkhole across a highway from a safe

Answers

Answer:

18 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Both triangles shown are congruent.

By the concept of transversal lines and vertically opposite angles, we conclude that the width of the sinkhole is 18 feet.

What is a transversal?

We know when a transversal intersects two parallel lines at two distinct points,

Two pairs of interior and alternate angles are formed such that the measure of interior angles are same and the measure of alternate angles is also the same.

We know when a transversal intersects a parallel line vertically opposite angles are equal and we also know that sides opposite to similar angles have the same length.

∴ The width of the sinkhole is also 18 feet.

16+b^2=84

Answers

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

QY = 5x

YZ = 18

QZ = 53

Thus:

QY + YZ = QZ (segment addition postulate)

5x + 18 = 53

5x = 53 - 18 (subtraction property of equality)

5x = 35

Divide both sides by 5

Graduation rate is one measure used to compare colleges in national publications. One such publication compared semester tuition against graduation rate, defined as the percentage of students who graduate within four years. The value of r for the scatterplot is 0.856.
A graph titled College comparisons has semester tuition (thousands of dollars) on the x-axis, and 4-year graduation rate (percentage) on the y-axis. Points are grouped together in a line with positive slope.

How would the correlation change if the graduation rate was plotted on the x-axis and tuition plotted on the y-axis?

The correlation would stay the same.
The correlation would stay positive and increase.
The correlation would stay positive and decrease.
The correlation would be negative, rather than positive.
