An airline requires carry on luggage to weigh at most 40 pounds. Your suitcase currently weighs 10 pounds. How many pounds p are available for you to fill your suitcase with other items?

Answers

Answer 1

30 pounds is available to fill the suitcase with other items.

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

An airline requires carry on luggage to weigh at most 40 pounds.

The Suitcase presently carry 10 pounds.

Let  p be the pound available to fill your suitcase with other items.

So, p= 40- 10

p = 30 pounds

Hence, 30 pounds is available to fill the suitcase with other items.

Which of the following statements is not true about reflections?
The image faces the same direction as the pre-image.
The image is the same shape as the pre-image.
The image is the same size as the pre-image.
Points on the pre-image are the same distance from the line of reflection as the corresponding points on the image.

Answers

'The image faces the same direction as the pre-image' is the false answer.

Hope this helps ^_^

Answer: The image faces the same direction as the pre-image.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection is a transformation in which a geometric shape (pre- image) is reflected across a line called as axis of reflection, producing a mirror image.

It is a rigid transformation because the image is the same size and shape as the pre-image.

Since it produces the mirror image of the original image therefore, the points on the pre-image are the same distance from the line of reflection as the corresponding points on the image.

So the only statement is not true about reflection is "The image faces the same direction as the pre-image. ".

If a 10. m3 volume of air (acting as an ideal gas) is at a pressure of 760 mm and a temperature of 27 degrees Celsius is taken to a high altitude where the pressure is 400. mm Hg and a temperature of -23 degrees Celsius, what volume will it occupy? (Hint: remember the temperature must be in Kelvin)

Answers

From the combined gas law
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, Where P1, V1 and T1 are the initial pressure, volume and temperature respectively, while P2,V2 and T1 are the new pressure, volume and temperatures respectively.
Thus; P1= 760 mmHg, V1=10 m^3, T1 = 27 +273 = 300 K
P2= 400 mmHg, V2= ? and T2= -23 +273 = 250K
V2 = (P1V1T2)/T1P2
      = (760×10×250)/(300×400)
      =  1900000/120000
      = 15.83 
Therefore, the new volume is 15.83 m³

Answer:

16. m3

Step-by-step explanation:

27 degrees Celsius= 27+273= 300 kelvin      

23 degrees Celsius= -23+273=250 kelvin

Combined Gas Law: P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2      

(760mm*10 m3)/300 K=(400mm*x m3)/250 K       x= 16. m3

The volume that it will occupy is 16. m3.

(Don't forget the sig fig, 15.83--->16. because the question said 10.)

Which graph represents the function over the interval [−3, 3]?

Answers

 In mathematics, the functions of the whole part are functions that take a real number and return a whole number, either by excess or by default.
 Function floor (or ground), that to each real number assigns the nearest whole number by defect, that is to say, the greater whole number equal or smaller than that real number.
 Let's evaluate the extremes of the interval
 x = -3
 g (-3) = floor (-3) -2 = -5
 x = 3
 g (3) = floor (3) -2 = 1
 Therefore, the graph that best corresponds to the function in the given interval is the attached graph.

By the Transitive Property of Equality, ∠ABC is congruent to ∠CDA. Consequently, opposite angles of parallelogram ABCD are congruent. What theorems accurately complete the proof?

Answers

Given a parallelogram ABCD, refer to the attached image.

To prove: Opposite angles are congruent.

Proof:

According to the given information,

Step 1: Using a straightedge, extend segment AB and place point P above point B.

Step 2: By the same reasoning, extend segment AD and place point T to the left of point A.

Step 3: Angles BCD and PBC are congruent by the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem.

Step 4: Angles PBC and BAD are congruent by the Corresponding Angles Theorem. ( If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of corresponding angles are congruent. Corresponding angles are the angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others.)

Step 5: By the Transitive Property of Equality, angles BCD and BAD are congruent.

Step 6: Angles ABC and BAT are congruent by the Alternate Interior Theorem.(The Alternate Interior Angles theorem states, if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of alternate interior angles are congruent. Alternate Interior angles are a pair of angles on the inner side of each of those two lines but on opposite sides of the transversal.)

Step 7: Angles BAT and CDA are congruent by the Corresponding Angles Theorem.

Step 8: By the Transitive Property of Equality, ∠ABC is congruent to ∠CDA. Consequently, opposite angles of parallelogram ABCD are congruent.

The proof requires the use of specific theorems such as the Vertical Angles Theorem and Corresponding Angles Theorem to establish the congruence of angles in a parallelogram.

Theorems that accurately complete the proof:

Angles PBC and BAD are congruent by the Vertical Angles Theorem.

Angles ABC and BAT are congruent by the Corresponding Angles Theorem.

Theorem 12 states that if two angles are congruent, their supplementary angles are also congruent.

so ap = px+c
1)collect all the likes to one side (ap - px = c)
2) Take the common out [ p(a-x) = c ] 
3) Divide by '(a-x)' to put equation in terms of "p="

Which of the following is a logarithmic function? A. Y=0.25X B. Y=x^0.25 c.y=log25^x d.y=(0.25)^x

Answers

I think the answer is C, y= log 25^x. Logarithmic functions are inverses of exponential functions. the inverse of exponential function y =a ^x is x = a^y. The logarithmic function y = logaX, is defined to be equivalent to the exponential equation x= a^y.

Answer:

The correct option is C .

Step-by-step explanation:

A logarithm function is written in the form of  [tex]y=log_ax[/tex],

Since, y = 0.25x is the type of function y = mx + c,

Which is the general form of a linear function,

⇒ y = 0.25x is not a logarithm function,

[tex]y=x^{0.25}[/tex] is the type of function [tex]y=kx^a[/tex], where k and a are any real number,

Which is the general form of a power function,

⇒ [tex]y=x^{0.25}[/tex] is not a logarithmic function.

[tex]y=(0.25)^x[/tex] is the type of function [tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

Which is the general form of exponential function,

⇒ [tex]y=(0.25)^x[/tex] is not a logarithmic function,

Hence, only the function in option C has written in the form of [tex]y=log_ax[/tex].

Option C is correct.

reflect point A(5, 7, 2) across the xz-plane. where will the new point be located?
(-5, -7, 2)
(-5, -7, -2)
(-5, 7, -2)
(5, -7, 2)

Answers

When the point (x, y, z) is reflected along the plane, only the coordinates of that particular plane changes (become opposite in sign) and the coordinate of 3rd coordinate remain the same.

In this case, the point A (5,7,2) is reflected along xz plane. So x and z coordinates will be opposite in signs after reflection and y coordinate will not be changed.

So after reflection along xz plane, the new point will be (-5, 7, -2). Thus 3rd option is the correct answer

in a given circuit, the supplied voltage is 1.5 volts, and the resistor value is 3 ohms. use ohm's law to determine the current in the circuit

Answers

0.5 is the answer. I = V/ R

Final answer:

The current in a circuit with a supplied voltage of 1.5 volts and a resistance of 3 ohms is calculated using Ohm's Law (I = V/R), resulting in a current of 0.5 amperes.

Explanation:

Using Ohm's Law to Calculate Current

To determine the current in a circuit with a supplied voltage of 1.5 volts and a resistor value of 3 ohms, we can use Ohm's Law, which is stated as I = V/R, where I is the current, V is the voltage, and R is the resistance. Plugging in the values, we have I = 1.5 volts / 3 ohms. Therefore, I = 0.5 amperes or 500 milliamperes. This is the current flowing through the circuit.

Ohm's Law is a fundamental principle in physics used for analyzing simple circuits where the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance is linear. Remember that this law holds true for ohmic materials where the resistance remains constant over a range of voltages and temperatures.

3x + 2y = 11
3x + 2(5x - 1) = 11

x = 1
y = 11 - 3x
y = 11 - 3
y = 8
3x + 2y = 11
y = 5x -1
 Using substitution 
 3x + 2(5x-1) = 11
  3x + 10 x -2 = 11
      13x = 13 
          x = 1
but, y= 5x -1
       y = 5 (1)- 1
          = 4 
Therefore, y =4 and x = 1

Question 2
Using linear combination method
2x -3y = 13
 x+2y = -4 multiplying the second equation by 2 to eliminate x
 we get
2x - 3y = 13
2x + 4y = -8 ( subtracting the two equations)
        -7y = 21
          y = -3
To get x we substitute y with -3 in one of the equation
     x = -4 -2y
     x = -4 - 2(-3)
     x = 2
Therefore, the value of x = 2 and y =-3

Question 3

        x   y
       (0, -2) 
        (1, 1)

At a furniture manufacturer, worker A can assemble a shelving unit in 5 hours. Worker B can assemble the same shelving unit in 3 hours. Which equation can be used to find t, the time it takes for worker A and worker B to assemble a shelving unit together?

Answers

Let's define the following variable:
 t = total time it takes to assemble a shelving unit together.
 We then have the following equation:
 1/5 + 1/3 = 1 / t
 Solving the equation we have:
 3t + 5t = 15
 8t = 15
 t = 1,875 hours
 Answer:
 
the time it takes for worker A and worker B to assemble a shelving unit together is:
 t = 1,875 hours

The equation 1/t = 1/5 + 1/3 can be used to find the time it takes for worker A and worker B to assemble a shelving unit together.

To find the time t it takes for worker A and worker B to assemble a shelving unit together, we need to add their work rates.

Worker A's work rate is 1 unit per 5 hours (or 1/5 units per hour), and worker B's work rate is 1 unit per 3 hours (or 1/3 units per hour).

The combined work rate is the sum of their individual work rates:

1/5 + 1/3 = (3 + 5) / 15 = 8 / 15 units per hour

If t is the time they take together to complete one shelving unit, then their combined work rate is 1 unit per t hours. Setting this equal to their combined rate, we get:

1/t = 8/15

Solving for t gives:

t = 15/8 hours

Therefore, the equation 1/t = 1/5 + 1/3 can be used to find the time it takes for worker A and worker B to assemble a shelving unit together.

A group of college students are volunteering for Help the Homeless during their spring break. They are putting the finishing touches on a house they built. Working alone, Irina can paint a certain room in 9 hours. Paulo can paint the same room in 8 hours. Write an equation that can be used to find how long it will take them working together to paint the room. How many hours will it take them to paint the room? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Since Irina can paint 1 room in 9 hours, that means she paints 1/9 of the room in 1 hour.  Her portion of the equation would be 1/9x, with x being the number of hours she works and 1/9 of a room per hour being her speed.
Since Paulo can paint 1 room in 8 hours, that means he paints 1/8 of the room in 1 hour.  His portion of the equation would be 1/8x, with x being the number of hours he works and 1/8 of a room per hour being his speed.
The equation would then be 1/9x + 1/8x = 1 (Irina's portion of the room, plus Paulo's portion of the room, equal to one whole room).
Find a common denominator.  72 is the first number that both 9 and 8 divide evenly into.  Since 9*8 = 72, we multiply the top of 1/9 by 8 to convert the fraction and get 8/72x.  Since 8*9 = 72, we multiply the top of 1/8 by 9 to convert the fractio and get 9/72x.  We now have 8/72x+9/72x=1
17/72x=1
Divide both sides by 17/72:
17/72x ÷ 17/72 = 1÷17/72
x=1/1 ÷ 17/72
x=1/1 * 72/17
x=72/17=4.24
Together it should take them 4.24 hours.

The combined work rate can be found by using the equation for combined rate.

The correct responses;The time it will take them working together is; [tex]\displaystyle \underline{\frac{1}{t_b} = \frac{1}{t_1} + \frac{1}{t_2} }[/tex]

The number of hours it will take them working together to paint the room is approximately 4.24 hours.  

The method by which the above responses are obtained:

The time it takes Irina to paint the room alone, t₁ = 9 hours

Time it takes Paulo to paint the room, t₂ = 8 hours

Required:

To write the equation for the combined rate of Irina and Paulo

Solution:

The equation that gives the time, [tex]\mathbf{t_b}[/tex], it will take both Irina and Paulo to paint the room together is given by the combined rate formula, as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle \underline{ \frac{1}{t_b} = \frac{1}{t_1} + \frac{1}{t_2}}[/tex]

Required:

The duration it will take them to paint the room when working together.

Solution:

The time it will take them to paint the room together is found as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{t_b} = \mathbf{\frac{1}{9} + \frac{1}{8}}[/tex]

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{t_b} = \frac{8 + 9}{9 \times 8} = \mathbf{\frac{17}{72}}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle t_b = \frac{72}{17} \approx \mathbf{4.24}[/tex]

The time it takes Irina and Paulo to paint together, [tex]t_b[/tex] ≈ 4.24 hrs.
