From a basket of mangoes, the king took 1/6, the queen took 1/5 of the remainder, the three chief princes to ¼, 1/3, and ½ of the successive remainders, respectively. the youngest child took the remaining 3 mangoes. how many mangoes were in the basket originally

Answers

Answer 1
let
x---------> quantity of mangoes that were in the basket originally

we know that
the king took 1/6
(1/6)*x-------> remainder is (5/6)*x

the queen took 1/5 of the remainder
(1/5)*(5/6)*x---> (1/6)*x----> remainder is (5/6-1/6)*x----> (4/6)*x

one chief princes to ¼ of the remainder
(1/4)*(4/6)*x-----> (1/6)*x------> remainder is (4/6-1/6)*x----> (3/6)*x

second chief princes to 1/3 of the remainder
(1/3)*(3/6)*x-----> (1/6)*x-------> remainder is (3/6-1/6)*x----> (2/6)*x

third chief princes to 1/2 of the remainder
(1/2)*(2/6)*x-----> (1/6)*x--------> remainder is (2/6-1/6)*x----> (1/6)*x

we know 
the remaining is 3 mangoes
so
(1/6)*x=3-------> x=6*3------> x=18 mangoes

the answer is
18 mangoes


Answer 2

Final answer:

The original basket contained 72 mangoes, determined by working backward from the known remainder of 3 after the sequential distribution between the king, queen, and princes.

Explanation:

From a basket of mangoes, the distribution among the royal family leads to a classic fractional subtraction problem. The solution involves working backward from the known remainder. The youngest child took the remaining 3 mangoes, which indicates that this was what was left after the king, the queen, and the three chief princes took their respective shares.

Let's denote the original number of mangoes as x. The king took 1/6 of x, leaving 5/6x. The queen then took 1/5 of the remainder (5/6x), leaving 4/5 * 5/6x = 4/6x or 2/3x. Successively, the three chief princes took 1/4, 1/3, and 1/2 of their respective remainders, each action further reducing the quantity of mangoes. The problem states that after these distributions, 3 mangoes were left, which were taken by the youngest child.

To find the original number of mangoes, we begin by denoting the final 3 mangoes as the remaining half after the last prince's share, work through the inverse operations for each prior transaction, and solve for x. Through this back calculation, we find that the original number of mangoes was 72.

Final answer:

The first part of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus provides a method to find the derivative of a function. However, clarity is needed in the question as it has extra elements. If we consider the derivative of y = cos x (3 + √5)8 sin x, it would be f'(x) = -sin x (3 + √5)8 sin x + cos x (3 + √5)8 cos x.

Explanation:

Since the question asks for the derivative of the function y = cos x (3 + √5)8 dv sin x, we'll need to use the First Part of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus. This theorem states that if a function f is continuous over the interval [a, b] and F is an antiderivative of f on [a, b], then the definite integral from a to b of f(x) dx equals F(b) - F(a). In this case, we have y = cos x (3 + √5)8 dv sin x which sadly is not clear due the presence of apparently extra and possibly typographical elements.

Assuming, the question intends to find derivative of y =  cos x (3 + √5)8 sin x, we can proceed as follows:

Let f(x) = cos x (3 + √5)8 sin x. Then by applying the chain rule, we get: f'(x) = -sin x (3 + √5)8 sin x + cos x (3 + √5)8 cos x.

Answers

Use the following formula to find the answer to this question: 

S * Q + M * Q = P 

Representations: 

S = The amount of points for short-answer questions. 

M = The amount of points for multiple-choice questions. 

Q = Number of questions for each of the type of questions that add up to the total number of questions on the test (20 questions). 

P = Total points on the test. 

Since there is a total of 50 points on the 20 question test, you would need to divide up the amount of questions there are for each of the type there are on the test, short-answer, and multiple-choice. 

3 * Q + 1 * Q = P 

Now find how many of the type of questions there are out of 20 questions on the test that would add up to the total number of points on the test. 

3 * Q + 1 * Q = 50 

(15 + 5 = 20 questions on the test, 15 and 5 can be used for the number of questions for each type of question on the test). 

3 * 15 + 1 * 5 = 50 

45 + 5 = 50 

50 = 50 

So, your total number of multiple choice questions are: 5. 
And, your total number of short answer questions are: 15. 

I would go with D. for your answer. I may be wrong.

QM Q2.) Find the multiplicities of the greatest zero, second greatest zero, and the smallest zero.

Answers

Method
First check out the zeros (first box). 

Step One.
Put brackets around terms 1 and 2 and another set around terms 3 and 4.

f(x) = (x^3 + 8x^2) - (4x + 32) Watch out that you change the sign on the 32. Minus signs can be devastating.   The idea is that when the brackets are removed, the question will be exactly as it was before you put the brackets there.

Step Two
Pull out any common factors.
f(x) = x^2(x + 8) - 4(x + 8)

Step Three.
If there is a common binomial pull it out as well. This is the hardest part of the problem. The binomials have to be exactly alike (in this case they are).

f(x) = (x + 8) (x^2 - 4) 

Step Four
Factor (x^2 - 4). This is an exact difference of squares. It factors into
x^2 - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)

Step five
Find the zeros.
f(x) = (x + 8)(x - 2)(x + 2)

x + 8 = 0
x = - 8

x + 2 = 0
x = - 2

x - 2 = 0
x = 2

I know you didn't ask for all of this, but when someone asks a question, it's always a good idea to check the work done. In your case it was all correct. That's a very good thing.

Let , 4 ,− 7 be a point on the terminal side of θ . find the exact values of cos θ , csc θ , and tan θ .

Answers

Ok, you are given a point and you need to find the exact values for [tex]cos \theta csc \theta & tan \theta[/tex]

First thing first. We need to see if we are working with a unit circle and find the radius.

How to tell if we are working with a unit circle?
We know [tex]x^2 + y^2 = r^2[/tex] is a circle.

We know that to find the radius we can use the following formula:
[tex]r^2 = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2}[/tex]

If [tex]r^2 = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2} = 1[/tex] we are working with a unit circle.

Lets see if it = 1.
[tex]r^2 = \sqrt{4^2 + -7^2}[/tex]
[tex]r^2 = \sqrt{16 + 49}[/tex]
[tex]r^2 = \sqrt{65}[/tex]

Square both sides now
[tex]\sqrt{r^2} = \sqrt{\sqrt{65}}[/tex]
[tex]r = \pm 65^{\frac{1}{4}}}[/tex]

Since we squared, we have a + and a - but we disregard the - because we do not have - radii 
[tex]r = 65^{\frac{1}{4}}}[/tex]
We can also say
[tex]r = \sqrt[4]{65}[/tex]

Ok, since r does not equal 1, we are not working with a unit circle but we have found r, which is our radius.

Now that we know the value of r, which is [tex]r = 65^{\frac{1}{4}}}[/tex], we need to look at the identities of cos, csc and tan.


The identities:
[tex]cos \theta = \frac{x}{r}[/tex]
[tex]csc \theta = \frac{1}{y}[/tex]
[tex]tan \theta = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

Now that we know their identities and know the radius of our circle, we can find the exact values of cos, csc and tan.

[tex]cos \theta = \frac{x}{r} = \frac{4}{65^{\frac{1}{4}}}[/tex] 
[tex]csc \theta = \frac{1}{y} = \frac{1}{-7}[/tex]
[tex]tan \theta = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-7}{4}[/tex]

The exact values for cos, csc and tan given the point (4,-7) are:
[tex]cos \theta = \frac{4}{65^{\frac{1}{4}}}[/tex] 
[tex]csc \theta = \frac{1}{-7}[/tex]
[tex]tan \theta = \frac{-7}{4}[/tex]



The exact values are [tex]\cos \theta = \frac{4\sqrt{65}}{65}[/tex], [tex]\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{65}}{4}[/tex] and [tex]\tan \theta = -\frac{7}{4}[/tex], respectively.

Let be a Point of the form [tex](x,y)[/tex] that is the Terminal Side of angle [tex]\theta[/tex], in sexagesimal degrees. By Trigonometry, we know that the Cosine, Cosecant and Tangent of the Angle are, respectively:

[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}}[/tex] (1)

[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}}{y}[/tex] (2)

[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{y}{x}[/tex] (3)

If we know that [tex]x = 4[/tex] and [tex]y = -7[/tex], then the exact value of all the trigonometric relations are:

[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}}[/tex]

[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{4}{\sqrt{4^{2}+(-7)^{2}}}[/tex]

[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{4\sqrt{65}}{65}[/tex]

[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{x^{2}+y^{2}}}{y}[/tex]

[tex]\csc\theta = \frac{\sqrt{4^{2}+(-7)^{2}}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{65}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{y}{x}[/tex]

[tex]\tan \theta = -\frac{7}{4}[/tex]

The exact values are [tex]\cos \theta = \frac{4\sqrt{65}}{65}[/tex], [tex]\csc \theta = \frac{\sqrt{65}}{4}[/tex] and [tex]\tan \theta = -\frac{7}{4}[/tex], respectively.

A plane left on time at noon on Monday. It arrived at its destination at 8:16PM the same day, which was 16 minutes late. On average, how many seconds did the plane fall behind every fifteen minutes?

Answers

The plane arrived on 8:16 pm and was 16 minutes late. This means the arrival time of plan was 8:00 pm. The plane left on noon i.e. 12:00 pm.

So total expected time of the journey was = 8 hours

8 hours means 8 x 60 minutes = 480 minutes

480 minutes can also be seen as 32 groups of 15 minutes each as 15 x 32 = 480.

In 32 groups of 15 minutes each the plane was late by a total of 16 minutes.

So, in every 15 minute the plane was late by 16/32 minute = 0.5 minute

Thus, we can conclude that on average the plane fall behind 0.5 minutes in every 15 minutes

To find the average delay per fifteen-minute interval, convert the total delay of 16 minutes into seconds, then divide by the number of fifteen-minute intervals between noon and 8:00 PM, yielding an average delay of 30 seconds per interval.

The question asks us to calculate how much time the plane fell behind schedule, on average, every fifteen minutes. Since the plane arrived 16 minutes late, we first need to convert this delay into seconds: 16 minutes is equal to 960 seconds (16 minutes  imes 60 seconds/minute). To calculate the plane's average delay per fifteen-minute interval, we divide the total delay in seconds by the total number of fifteen-minute intervals between noon and the expected arrival time at 8:00 PM, which is 32 intervals (8 hours  ×4 intervals/hour). Therefore, the average delay per interval is 960 seconds \/ 32 intervals = 30 seconds per interval.

Answers

The answer is g(x) = x².
Solution:
The graph of h(x) = x²+9 translated vertically downward by 9 units means that each point (x, h(x)) is shifted onto the point (x, h(x) - 9), that is, 
     (x, h(x)) → (x, h(x) - 9)
The translated graph that represents the function is defined by the expression for g(x):
     g(x) = h(x) - 9 = x² + 9 - 9 = x²

h(x) = x²+9 → g(x) = x² shows that the graph of the equation g(x) = x² moves the graph of h(x) = x²+9 down nine units.

The greenhouse effect traps heat near earth's surface. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere—carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide—allow the shorter waves of ultraviolet radiation from the sun to enter earth's lower atmosphere. However, these gases do not allow the longer wavelengths of infrared radiation to pass back out to the outer atmosphere. The result is that the lower atmosphere heats up.This result happens naturally, but it can be accelerated by human activities. Since the late 1800s, human activity has greatly altered the amount of greenhouse gases that enter the atmosphere. Burning fossil fuels, farming, and clearing forests, as well as industry, have all contributed to increases of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, nitrous oxide, and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.The result is that temperatures in the troposphere have gone up.

One nurse takes 2 minutes to measure the blood pressure of one patient. With 200 nurses, each assigned to one patient, it will take all nurses 2 minutes to measure the blood pressure of 200 patients.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the time it would take a group of nurses to measure the blood pressure of an equal number of patients given a scenario. It works on the principle that if the number of nurses is directly proportional to the number of patients, the time it takes for one nurse to measure one patient's blood pressure will be the same, regardless of how many nurses or patients there are, as long as the ratio remains 1:1.

If it takes 2 nurses 2 minutes to measure the blood pressure of 2 patients, that means one nurse takes 2 minutes to measure the blood pressure of one patient. Therefore, if you have 200 nurses each measuring the blood pressure of one patient, it would still take 2 minutes for all 200 patients to have their blood pressure measured since each nurse is working with one patient individualy.
