Review the following inferences and tell me if you consider them valid conclusions one can draw from the give information. i. If the moon is made of green cheese, then cows jump over it. The moon is made of green cheese, Therefore, cows jump over the moon. ii. If Socrates was a philosopher then he wasn't a historian. Socrates wasn't a historian. So, Socrates was a philosopher. Note: I may not grade this question. The only reason you are asked to solve them is for me to get a feel for the mathematical maturity of the members of this class.

Answers

Answer 1
I believe they both are because the inferences both make sense
Answer 2

The validity of the conclusion (Socrates was a philosopher) does not necessarily follow from the premises because there could be other reasons for Socrates not being a historian.

Let's analyze each inference:

Inference i:

If the moon is made of green cheese, then cows jump over it. The moon is made of green cheese, Therefore, cows jump over the moon.

This inference is an example of a valid logical argument known as modus ponens, a form of deductive reasoning. The structure can be broken down as follows:

Premise 1: If the moon is made of green cheese, then cows jump over it.

Premise 2: The moon is made of green cheese.

Conclusion: Therefore, cows jump over the moon.

Since both premises are assumed to be true, the conclusion logically follows.

Inference ii:

If Socrates was a philosopher then he wasn't a historian. Socrates wasn't a historian. So, Socrates was a philosopher.

This inference is an example of the logical fallacy known as affirming the consequent. Even though the conclusion might be true, the argument's structure is invalid. The structure can be broken down as follows:

Premise 1: If Socrates was a philosopher then he wasn't a historian.

Premise 2: Socrates wasn't a historian.

Conclusion: So, Socrates was a philosopher.

Here, the validity of the conclusion (Socrates was a philosopher) does not necessarily follow from the premises because there could be other reasons for Socrates not being a historian.

d) Find the 5th degree Taylor polynomial centered at x = 0 for the function y = \tiny \frac{x}{1+x}

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(x) = x - x^2 + x^3 - x^4+x^5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first remember how a Taylor polynomial looks like:

Given a differentiable function [tex]f[/tex] then we can find its Taylor series to the [tex]nth[/tex] degree as follows:

[tex]P(x) = f(x_{0}) + f'(x_{0}).(x-x_{0}) + \frac{f''(x_{0})}{2!}.(x-x_{0})^2+.....+\frac{f^n(x_{0})}{n!}.(x-x_{0})^n + R_{n}(x).(x-x_{0})^n[/tex]

Where [tex]R_{n}(x)[/tex] represents the Remainder and [tex]f^n(x)[/tex] is the [tex]nth[/tex] derivative of [tex]f[/tex].

So let us find those derivatives.

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x}{1+x}\\f'(x) = \frac{1}{(1+x)^2}\\f''(x) = \frac{-2}{(1+x)^3}\\f'''(x) = \frac{6}{(1+x)^4}\\f''''(x) = \frac{-24}{(1+x)^5}\\f'''''(x) = \frac{120}{(1+x)^6}[/tex]

The only trick for this derivatives is for the very first one:

[tex]f'(x) = \frac{1}{1+x} - \frac{x}{(1+x)^2}\\f'(x) = \frac{(1+x) - x}{(1+x)^2} = \frac{1}{(1+x)^2}\\[/tex]

Then it's only matter of replacing on the Taylor Series and replacing [tex]x_{0}=0[/tex]

Tour players Harry, Ron, Harmione and Ginny are playing a card game. A deck of 52 cards are dealt out equally. If Harmione and Ginny have a total of 8 spades among them, what is the probability that Harry has 3 of the remaining 5 spades?

Answers

Answer: 0.339

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Tour players Harry, Ron, Harmione and Ginny are playing a card game.

. A deck of 52 cards are dealt out equally.

Then, the number of card each person has = [tex]\dfrac{52}{4}=13[/tex]

If Harmione and Ginny have a total of 8 spades among them, then the total cards the total spades left = 13-8=5

Now, the number of ways to get 3 of 5 spades : [tex]^5C_3=\dfrac{5!}{3!2!}=10[/tex]

Number of ways to draw remaining 10 cards :  [tex]^{21}C_{10}=\dfrac{21!}{10!11!}=352716[/tex]

Also, the total cards Harmione and Ginny have = 13+13=26

Then the total cards left = 26

The number of ways to get 13 cards for Harry :

[tex]^{26}C_{13}=\dfrac{26!}{13!(26-13)!}\\\\=\dfrac{26!}{13!13!}=10400600[/tex]

Now, the probability that Harry has 3 of the remaining 5 spades :_

[tex]\dfrac{^5C_3\times ^{21}C_{10}}{^{26}C_{13}}\\\\=\dfrac{10\times352716}{10400600}\\\\=0.339130434783\approx0.339[/tex]

Hence, the probability that Harry has 3 of the remaining 5 spades= 0.339 (approx)

The local pet store surveyed 50 people about pets. Eleven of these people owned dogs, 13 owned cats, and 6 owned fish. One person owned all three types of pets, 2 people owned only fish and dogs, 3 people only fish and cats, and 5 people owned only cats and dogs. How many people owned none of these pets?

Answers

Answer:   29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S denotes the total number of people surveyed, A denotes the event of having dog , B denotes the event of having cats and C denotes the event of having fish.

Given :     n(S)=50  ;n(A)=11  ;  n(B) =13  and  n(C)=6

Also, n(A∩B)=5 ;  n(A∩C) = 2 and n(B∩C)=3 and n(A∩B∩C)=1

We know that,

[tex]n(A\cup B\cup C)=n(A)+n(B)+n(C)-n(A \cap B)-n(A \cap C)-n(B \cap C)-n(A \cap B\cap C)\\\\=11+13+6-5-2-3+1=21[/tex]

Now, the number of people owned none of these pets :-

[tex]n(S)-n(A\cup B\cup C)\\\\=50-21=29[/tex]

Hence, the number of people owned none of these pets =29

determine the payment to amortized the debt quarterly payments on $16,500 at 3.6% for 6 years

Answers

Answer:

$767.49

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

Amount of money = $16,500

quarterly rate = 3.6/4 = 0.9 %

times = 6 × 4 = 24 quarters.                            

[tex]A =\dfrac{P(r(1+r)^n)}{(1+r)^n-1}\\\\A =\dfrac{16500\times(0.009(1+0.009)^{24})}{(1+0.009)^{24}-1}\\A = \$ 767.49[/tex]          

hence, the payment to amortize the dept  will be equal to $767.49  .

Suppose that f is a differentiable function of one variable. Show that all the tangent Planes to the the surface z = xf (y / x) intersect in a common point.

Answers

Answer:

If [tex]P_0 (x_0,y_0,z_0)[/tex] is a point on the surface, then the cartesian equation of the  tangent plane at [tex]P_0 (x_0,y_0,z_0)[/tex] is

[tex](\ast)z = z_0 + \frac{\partial z}{ \partial x}(x_0,y_0)\cdot (x -x_0) + \frac{\partial z}{\partial y} (x_0, y_0) (y -y_0)[/tex],

where [tex]z_0 = x_0 f \left ( \frac{y_0}{x_0}\right )[/tex].

Given that

[tex]\frac{\partial z}{\partial x} (x_0 , y_0) = f \left( \frac{y_0}{x_0}\right ) - \frac{y_0}{x_0} \cdot \frac{\partial f}{\partial x}(x_0,y_0) \ , \ \frac{\partial z}{\partial y} (x_0 , y_0)=\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} (x_0,y_0)[/tex], then

[tex](\ast)[/tex] becomes

[tex](\ast \ast) z=x_0 f \left ( \frac{y_0}{x_0}\right ) + f \left( \frac{y_0}{x_0}\right ) - \frac{y_0}{x_0}\cdot \frac{\partial f}{\partial x} (x_0,y_0)\cdot (x -x_0)+\frac{\partial f}{\partial y} (x_0,y_0)\cdot (y -y_0)[/tex].

Finally, replacing [tex] (x,y,z)=(0,0,0)[/tex] in [tex](\ast \ast)[/tex] you have that the equality is true for all [tex]P_0[/tex]. This means that [tex]O(0,0,0)[/tex]

What is the lenght of a diagonal of a square with sides 16feet
long ? Round to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

The length of the diagonal is 22.6 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of the diagonal of a square, multiply the length of one side by the square root of 2:

If the length of one side is x, [tex]length = x\sqrt{2}[/tex] as you can see in the image attached.

This fact is a consequence of applying the Pythagoras' Theorem to find the length of the diagonal if we know the side length of the square.

[tex]length^{2}  = x^{2}+x^{2}  \\ length=\sqrt{x^{2}+x^{2}} \\ length=\sqrt{2x^{2} } \\ length=x\sqrt{2}[/tex]

We know that the length of one side is 16 ft so [tex]length = 16\sqrt{2}=22.627[/tex] and round to the nearest tenth is 22.6 ft

In the xy plane, a quadrilateral has vertices at (-1, 4), (7,4), (7,5), and (-1. 5). What is the perimeter of the quadrilateral? (A) 17 (B) 18 (C) 19 (1) 32 (E) 34

Answers

Answer:

(B) 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the perimeter of a quadrilateral with vertices at (-1, 4), (7,4), (7,5), and (-1. 5).

First of all, we will draw vertices of quadrilateral on coordinate plane and connect the vertices as shown in the attached photo.

We can see that our quadrilateral is a parallelogram, whose parallel sides are equal.

[tex]\text{Perimeter of quadrilateral}=8+1+8+1[/tex]

[tex]\text{Perimeter of quadrilateral}=16+2[/tex]

[tex]\text{Perimeter of quadrilateral}=18[/tex]

Therefore, the perimeter of the given quadrilateral is 18 units.

Solve the Following Initial Value Problem: 2XYY'+Y^2-4X^3=0. where Y(1)=2

The answer is y= sqrt((x^4+3)/x)

Answers

[tex]2xyy'+y^2-4x^3=0[/tex]

Let [tex]z(x)=y(x)^2[/tex], so that [tex]z'(x)=2y(x)y'(x)[/tex] (which appears in the first term on the left side):

[tex]xz'+z=4x^3[/tex]

This ODE is linear in [tex]z[/tex], and we don't have to find any integrating factor because the left side is already the derivative of a product:

[tex](xz)'=4x^3\implies xz=x^4+C\implies z=\dfrac{x^4+C}x[/tex]

[tex]\implies y(x)=\sqrt{\dfrac{x^4+C}x}[/tex]

With [tex]y(1)=2[/tex], we get

[tex]2=\sqrt{1+C}\implies C=3[/tex]

so the solution is as given in your post.

the forecast calls for a 30% chance of snow today and a 40% chance of snow tomorrow. what are the chances it will rain two days in a row?

Answers

Answer:

The chances it will rain two days in a row is 12%

Step-by-step explanation:

The forecast calls for a 30% chance of snow today

So, chance of snowfall today = 30% = 0.3

A 40% chance of snow tomorrow.

So, chance of snowfall tomorrow= 40% = 0.4

The chances it will rain two days in a row = [tex]0.4  \times 0.3[/tex]

                                                                    = [tex]0.12[/tex]  

So, percent  it will rain two days in a row = [tex]0.12 \times 100 = 12\%[/tex]

Hence the chances it will rain two days in a row is 12%

Consider the quadratic function f(x)=−x^2+4x+12

Determine the following:

The smallest xx-intercept is x=Incorrect
The largest xx-intercept is x=
The yy-intercept is y=

Answers

Answer:

a) -2 from (-2,0) b) 6 from (6,0) c) y-intercept: 12 from (0,12)

Step-by-step explanation:

The X intercepts in a quadratic function are the points of the x-axis crossed by the parabola. One quadratic equation may have up to two points on the X-axis. This or these points in the X-axis, the Zeros of this function,  will be crossed by the parabola.

The Y-intercept is the point of the y-axis crossed by the parabola.

Solving the equation:

[tex]-x^{2} +4x+12=0\\ x'=\frac{-4+\sqrt{64}}{-2} \\ x"=\frac{-4-\sqrt{64}}{-2} \\ x'=-2\\ x"=6\\[/tex]

S={-2, 6} These values, or zeros of this quadratic function are the X, intercepts.

c) The indepent term, or c, in f(x)= ax²+bx+c in this case is 12, also is the Y coordinate for the Parabola Vertex. This point is our intercept for y.

A hemispherical bowl of radius 12 inches is filled to a depth of h​ inches, where 0less than or equalshless than or equals12. Find the volume of water in the bowl as a function of h.​ (Check the special cases hequals0 and hequals12​.)

Answers

Answer:

Suppose the bowl is situated such that the rim of the bowl touches the x axis, and the semicircular cross section of the bowl lies below the x-axis (in (iii) and (iv) quadrant ). Then the equation of the cross section of the bowl would be [tex]x^2+y^2=144[/tex], where y≤ 0,

⇒ [tex]y=-\sqrt{144-x^2}[/tex]

Here, h represents the depth of water,

Thus, by using shell method,

The volume of the disk would be,

[tex]V(h) = \pi \int_{-12}^{-12+h} x^2 dx[/tex]

[tex]= \pi \int_{-12}^{-12+h} (144-y^2) dy[/tex]

[tex]= \pi |144y-\frac{y^3}{3}|_{-12}^{-12+h}[/tex]

[tex]=\pi [ (144(-12+h)-\frac{(-12+h)^3}{3}-144(-12)+\frac{(-12)^3}{3}}][/tex]

[tex]=\pi [ -1728 + 144h - \frac{1}{3}(-1728+h^3+432h-36h^2)+1728-\frac{1728}{3}][/tex]

[tex]=\pi [ 144h - \frac{1}{3}(h^3+432h-36h^2}{3}][/tex]

[tex]=\pi [ 144h - \frac{h^3}{3} - 144h + 12h^2][/tex]

[tex]=\pi ( 12h^2 - \frac{h^3}{3})[/tex]

Special cases :

If h = 0,

[tex]V(0) = 0[/tex]

If h = 12,

[tex]V(12) = \pi ( 1728 - 576) = 1152\pi [/tex]

Dr. Fitzgerald has graded 15 of 26 exams for Epi 501. (a) What proportion of all exams has Dr. Fitzgerald graded? (b) What was the ratio of graded to ungraded tests?

Answers

Answer: a) 15:26, and b) 15:11.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of graded tests = 15

Number of total tests = 26

Number of ungraded tests is given by

[tex]26-15\\\\=11[/tex]

a) Proportion of all exams has Dr. Fitxgerald graded is given by

15:26.

b) Ratio of graded to ungraded tests is given by 15:11

Hence, a) 15:26, and b) 15:11.

(a) The proportion of all exams graded by Dr. Fitzgerald is [tex]\(\frac{15}{26}\)[/tex].

(b) The ratio of graded to ungraded tests is [tex]\(\frac{15}{26 - 15}\) or \(\frac{15}{11}\)[/tex].

(a) To find the proportion of exams graded by Dr. Fitzgerald, we divide the number of exams graded by the total number of exams. This gives us the fraction:

[tex]\[ \text{Proportion graded} = \frac{\text{Number of exams graded}}{\text{Total number of exams}} = \frac{15}{26} \][/tex]

This fraction represents the part of the whole set of exams that has been graded.

(b) To find the ratio of graded to ungraded tests, we take the number of exams that have been graded and divide it by the number of exams that have not been graded. The number of ungraded exams is the total number of exams minus the number of graded exams:

[tex]\[ \text{Number of ungraded exams} = \text{Total number of exams} - \text{Number of exams graded} = 26 - 15 = 11 \][/tex]

Now, we can find the ratio:

[tex]\[ \text{Ratio of graded to ungraded tests} = \frac{\text{Number of exams graded}}{\text{Number of exams ungraded}} = \frac{15}{11} \][/tex]

This ratio tells us how many times greater the number of graded exams is compared to the number of ungraded exams.

The CEO of a company that sells car stereos has determined the profit of selling x number of stereos to be: P(x) = –.04x2 + 1000x – 16,500 How much profit should the company expect from selling 12,500 stereos?

Answers

Answer:

6233500

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that CEO of a company that sells car stereos has determined the profit x number of stereos.

The profit of selling x number of stereos is given by

[tex]P(x)=-0.04x^2=100x-16500[/tex]

We have to find the value of profit when the company selling 12500 stereos.

Substitute the value of x=12500

Then, we get

[tex]P(12500)=-.04(12500)^2+1000(12500)-16500[/tex]

[tex]P(12500)=-6250000+12500000-16500=-6266500+12500000[/tex]

[tex]P(12500)=6233500[/tex]

Hence, the company should expect profit 6233500 from selling 12500 stereos.

In experiment two, I measured a block to be 4.45 cm by 3.35 em by 6.15 cm and a mass of 155.147g. What is the density of this block in kg/L? 3.

Answers

Answer:

1.69224581396 Kg/L

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the measure of the block as 4.45 cm × 3.35 cm × 6.15 cm.

Volume of block = 4.45 cm × 3.35 cm × 6.15 cm = 91.681125 cm cube = 91.681125 × 0.001 L = 0.091681125 L

We did the above step to convert the volume of block into Liter.

Mass of block is given as 155.147 gram = 155.147 × 0.001 kg = 0.155147 kg

We converted the mass of block into kilograms because we need density in Kg/L.

Density is defined as mass per unit volume

Density = [tex]\frac{Mass}{Volume}[/tex]

             = [tex]\frac{0.155147 }{0.091681125}[/tex]]

             = 1.69224581396 Kg/L

The density is found to be approximately 1.688 kg/L.

To find the density of the block, we need to use the density formula:

Density = Mass / Volume

The given dimensions of the block are:

Length = 4.45 cmWidth = 3.35 cmHeight = 6.15 cm

First, calculate the volume:

Volume = Length × Width × Height

Volume = 4.45 cm × 3.35 cm × 6.15 cm

Volume ≈ 91.88925 cubic centimeters (cm)

Next, convert mass to kilograms and volume to liters:

Mass = 155.147 g = 0.155147 kg (since 1 kg = 1000 g)Volume = 91.88925 cm³ × 0.001 L/cm³ ≈ 0.09188925 L (since 1 cm³ = 0.001 L)

Finally, calculate the density in kg/L:

Density = Mass / Volume

Density ≈ 0.155147 kg / 0.09188925 L

Density ≈ 1.688 kg/L

Thus, the density of the block is approximately 1.688 kg/L.

As the owner of a small restaurant, you purchase 5 boxes of napkins for $75.00 every 3 months. Each box contains 525 napkins. To the nearest hundredth, what is the cost for each individual napkin?
A) 0.01
B) 0.02
C) 0.03
D) 0.05

Answers

Answer: 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of napkins: 5 x 525 = 2,625

75/2626 = 0.02857, which rounds to 0.03

Final answer:

The cost per individual napkin, when rounded to the nearest hundredth, is $0.03.

Explanation:

To begin finding the cost per napkin, we first need to find out how many napkins are purchased every 3 months. Since each box contains 525 napkins and you purchase 5 boxes every 3 months, that would be 525 * 5 = 2625 napkins. The cost of these napkins is $75.00.

So, to find the cost per individual napkin, you would divide the total cost by the total number of napkins. That would be 75 / 2625 = $0.028571... When rounded to the nearest hundredth, this becomes $0.03. So, each individual napkin costs $0.03. Therefore, the correct answer is (C) 0.03.

Answers

Answer:

The cost to rent a trailer for 2.8 hours is $21.4.

The cost to rent a trailer for 3 hours is $23.

The cost to rent a trailer for 8.5 hours is $67.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hours.

It is given that the charge to rent a trailer is $15 for up to 2 hours plus $8 per additional hour or portion of an hour.

The cost to rent a trailer for x hours is defined as

[tex]C(x)=\begin{cases}15 & \text{ if } x\leq 2 \\ 15+8(x-2) & \text{ if } x>2 \end{cases}[/tex]

For x>2, the cost function is

The cost to rent a trailer for a given number of hours is determined by a flat fee of $15 for the first 2 hours and an additional cost of $8 for each extra hour or partial hour. For 2.8 hours, since this exceeds the initial 2-hour period, we calculate the cost as follows:

Flat fee for the first 2 hours: $15Extra time: 0.8 hours, which counts as an additional full hour for charging purposesAdditional cost for 0.8 hours (rounded up to 1 hour): $8Total cost = Flat fee + cost for additional hoursTotal cost = $15 + $8 = $23

Therefore, the cost to rent a trailer for 2.8 hours is $23.

in the following ordinary annuity, the interest is compounded with each payment, and the payment made at the end of the compounding period. find the accumulated amount of the annuity. (round your answer to the nearest cent)

$2000 monthy at 6.3% for 20 years

Answers

Answer: $957646.07

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we use to find the accumulated amount of the annuity is given by :-

[tex]FV=m(\frac{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt})-1}{\frac{r}{n}})[/tex]

, where m is the annuity payment deposit, r is annual interest rate , t is time in years and n is number of periods.

Given : m= $2000 ; n= 12   [∵12 in a  year] ;   t= 20 years ;   r= 0.063

Now substitute all these value in the formula , we get

[tex]FV=(2000)(\frac{(1+\frac{0.063}{12})^{12\times20})-1}{\frac{0.063}{12}})[/tex]

i.e. [tex]FV=(2000)(\frac{(1+0.00525)^{240})-1}{0.00525})[/tex]

i.e. [tex]FV=(2000)(\frac{(3.51382093497)-1}{0.00525})[/tex]

i.e. [tex]FV=(2000)(\frac{2.51382093497}{0.00525})[/tex]

i.e. [tex]FV=(2000)(478.823035232)[/tex]

i.e. [tex]FV=957646.070464\approx957646.07\ \ \ \text{ [Rounded to the nearest cent]}[/tex]

Hence, the accumulated amount of the annuity= $957646.07

Final answer:

The future value or accumulated amount of an ordinary annuity is calculated using the formula where P is the periodic payment, r is the interest rate per period, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the time in years. Given P = $2000, r = 6.3%, n = 12 and t =  20 years, substituting these values into the formula gives the accumulated amount

Explanation:

To find the future value or accumulated amount of an ordinary annuity, we use the formula: FV = P * (((1 + r)^nt - 1) / r), where P is the periodic payment, r is the interest rate per period, n is the number of compounding periods per year, and t is the time in years.

In the given problem, P = $2000, r = 6.3% or 0.063 (in decimal), n = 12 (since the payments are monthly), and t =  20 years.

Substituting these into the formula, FV = $2000 * (((1 + 0.063 /12)^(12*20) - 1) / (0.063/12)).

Calculating the equation, we'll get the accumulated amount to the nearest cent.

N= I/Y= PV= PMT= FV= P/Y=

Answers

Answer:

$2191.12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the value of a bond after 10 years, if you invest $1000 in a savings bond that pays 4% interest, compounded semi-annually.

[tex]FV=C_0\times (1+r)^n[/tex], where,

[tex]C_0=\text{Initial amount}[/tex],

r = Rate of return in decimal form.

n = Number of periods.

Since interest is compounded semi-annually, so 'n' will be 2 times 10 that is 20.

[tex]4\%=\frac{4}{100}=0.04[/tex]

[tex]FV=\$1,000\times (1+0.04)^{20}[/tex]

At a grocery store, Daniel wants to buy 3 lb of ham.
What decimal should the digital scale show?
Write 3 as a fraction and then divide.
The scale should read

Answers

Final answer:

The digital scale should display 3.0 when weighing 3 lbs of ham. This is because 3 pounds exactly can be displayed as the decimal 3.0 after converting the number into a fraction, 3/1, and dividing the numerator by the denominator.

Explanation:

When Daniel wants to buy 3 lb of ham, the digital scale at the grocery store should display the decimal 3.0. This is because 3 pounds exactly translates to 3.0 in decimal terms.

The process of converting a number like 3 into a fraction would begin by writing it as 3/1 (as any number can be written over 1).

To convert that into decimal form, you would divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator), so 3 ÷ 1 = 3.0.

Thus, the digital scale should read 3.0 when Daniel weighs out his 3 lbs of ham.

How would I put this into a bar diagram? I can do it with algebra but I am having trouble drawing a bar diagram to help represent this problem.

Answers

Answer:

There are 48 children.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :There are 3 times as many boys as girls.

            There are 24 more boys than girls,

To Find : how many children are there?

Solution:

Let the number of girls be x

Now we are given that there are 3 times as many boys as girls.

So, no. of boys = 3x

Now we are given that there are 24 more boys than girls.

So, [tex]3x-x=24[/tex]

[tex]2x=24[/tex]

[tex]x=12[/tex]

So, no. of girls = 12

No. of boys = 3x = 3(12) = 36

Now the total no. of children = 12+36 = 48

Hence there are 48 children.

Cantwell Associates, a real estate developer, is planning to build a new apartment complex consisting of one-bedroom units, two-bedroom townhouses, and three-bedroom townhouses. A total of 216 units is planned. The total number of two- and three-bedroom townhouses will equal the number of one-bedroom units. If the number of one-bedroom units will be 3 times the number of three-bedroom townhouses, find how many units of each type will be in the complex. one-bedroom units units two-bedroom townhouses units three-bedroom townhouses units

Answers

Answer:

108 one-bedroom units

72 two-bedroom units

36 three-bedroom units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y, z the number of one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom units respectively. Then  

1) x+y+z = 216

2)     y+z = x

3)         x = 3z

Multiplying equation 1) by -1 and adding it to 2), we get

-x = x-216 so, x = 216/2 = 108

x = 108

Replacing this value in 3) we get

z = 108/3 = 36

z = 36

Replacing now in 2)

y+36 = 108, y = 108-36 and

y = 72

Final answer:

In the planned apartment complex, there will be 0 one-bedroom units, 216 two-bedroom townhouses, and 0 three-bedroom townhouses.

Explanation:

Let x be the number of one-bedroom units. Since the number of two- and three-bedroom townhouses equals the number of one-bedroom units, let y be the number of two-bedroom townhouses and z be the number of three-bedroom townhouses. We know that x + y + z = 216. Additionally, x = 3z because the number of one-bedroom units will be 3 times the number of three-bedroom townhouses. Substituting x = 3z into the first equation gives 3z + y + z = 216. Simplifying this equation, we get 4z + y = 216.

Now, we can solve this system of equations to find the values of x, y, and z. Subtracting y from both sides of the equation 4z + y = 216 gives 4z = 216 - y. Let's call this equation (1). Substituting x = 3z and y = 216 - 4z into the equation x + y + z = 216 gives 3z + (216 - 4z) + z = 216. Simplifying this equation, we get 4z + 216 = 216. Subtracting 216 from both sides of the equation gives 4z = 0. Let's call this equation (2).

Since equation (1) and equation (2) both have 4z on the left side, we can equate the right sides of the equations. This gives 216 - y = 0. Solving for y, we find y = 216. Plugging this value of y into equation (1), we get 4z = 216 - 216, which simplifies to 4z = 0. Solving for z, we find z = 0. Finally, plugging the value of z into the equation x = 3z, we get x = 3(0), which simplifies to x = 0.

Therefore, there are 0 one-bedroom units, 216 two-bedroom townhouses, and 0 three-bedroom townhouses in the complex.

An airplane flying at an altitude of 30,000 feet flies up to avoid a storm. Immediately after passing the storm, the airplane returns to its original altitude. What integer represents the airplane's change in altitude to avoid the storm? What integer represents the altitude after passing the storm?

Answers

Answer:

The integer representing the change of altitude to avoid the storm is 8,000

The integer representing the altitude after passing the storm is 30,000

Explanation:

The diagram of this question is shown in the attached image

We are given that the initial altitude of the plane was 30,000 ft

1- During the storm:

The plane flew at at altitude of 38,000 feet

To get the change in the altitude, we will subtract the final altitude from the initial one

change of altitude = final altitude - initial altitude

change of altitude = 38,000 - 30,000 = 8,000 ft

Therefore, the integer representing the change of altitude to avoid the storm is 8,000

2- After the storm:

We know that, after the storm, the plane returned to its initial altitude

Given that the initial altitude is 30,000 ft, this would mean that the integer representing the altitude after passing the storm is 30,000

Hope this helps :)

Final answer:

The integer representing the change in altitude when the airplane avoided the storm and then returned to its original altitude is zero. The altitude after passing the storm is 30,000 feet, the same as its original altitude before the ascent.

Explanation:

The integer representing the airplane's change in altitude to avoid the storm is zero because it returned to its original altitude after passing the storm. During the avoidance maneuver, the airplane would have increased in altitude (a positive change) and then decreased the same amount to return to its original altitude (a negative change). The sum of this positive and negative change is zero.

The integer representing the altitude after passing the storm is 30,000 feet, which is the same as the original altitude since the airplane returned to this altitude after avoiding the storm.

When considering aircraft performance, it's vital to take into account the rate of climb and descent, potential energy swaps from kinetic energy, and altitude effects on aircraft performance. However, in this instance, the specific figure for altitude change during the storm avoidance is not given, but the concept of returning to starting altitude implies no net change.

Prove that x-1 is a factor of x^n-1 for any positive integer n.

Answers

Answer:    

[tex]x-1[/tex] is a factor of [tex]x^n - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x-1[/tex] is a factor of [tex]x^n - 1[/tex]

We will prove this with the help of principal of mathematical induction.

For n = 1, [tex]x-1[/tex] is a factor [tex]x-1[/tex], which is true.

Let the given statement be true for n = k that is [tex]x-1[/tex] is a factor of [tex]x^k - 1[/tex].

Thus, [tex]x^k - 1[/tex] can be written equal to  [tex]y(x-1)[/tex], where y is an integer.

Now, we will prove that the given statement is true for n = k+1

[tex]x^{k+1} - 1\\=(x-1)x^k + x^k - 1\\=(x-1)x^k + y(x-1)\\(x-1)(x^k + y)[/tex]

Thus, [tex]x^k - 1[/tex] is divisible by [tex]x-1[/tex].

Hence, by principle of mathematical induction, the given statement is true for all natural numbers,n.
