When a certain tree was first planted, it was 4 feet tall, and the height of the tree increased by a constant amount each year for the next 6 years. at the end of the 6th year, the tree was \frac{1}{5} taller than it was at the end of the 4th year. by how many feet did the height of the tree increase each year?

Answers

Answer 1
Let the height increase each year be x. If the initial height was 4 ft, then its height after 6 years would be 4 + 6x. This is 1/5 taller than its initial height, so
4 + 6x = 4(1 + 1/5)6x = 4/5x = 2/15 ft per year

Use Euler’s Formula to find the number of edges in a polyhedron with seven faces: two pentagons and five rectangles.

Answers

To determine the number of edges in a polyhedron with seven faces, two being pentagons and five being rectangles, you apply Euler's formula, resulting in a total of 15 edges.

To find the number of edges in a polyhedron with seven faces using Euler's formula, which is V - E + F = 2, we first need to determine the number of vertices (V) and faces (F) of the polyhedron.

Given that the polyhedron has two pentagons and five rectangles, we can calculate the total number of vertices. Each pentagon has 5 vertices and each rectangle has 4, but since rectangles share sides, some vertices will be counted twice.

Therefore, for the rectangles, we should calculate the vertices as if there were four distinct ones and then subtract the overlaps. Assuming all rectangles share exactly one side with its adjacent, we would have 4 vertices for each rectangle minus 2 for each shared side, resulting in 2 vertices per rectangle.

With five rectangles, that's 10 vertices, plus the 10 from the two pentagons, we get 20 vertices in total. Now, we apply Euler's formula: V - E + F = 2, substituting the values:

E = V - F + 2
E = 20 - 7 + 2
E = 15

Therefore, the polyhedron has 15 edges. .

Prove that x²+6x+18 is always greater than

[tex]2 - \frac{1}{x} [/tex]

For any value of x.

Answers

One way to solve this would be to graph both y=x^2+6x+18 and y=2 - 1/x.  If the graph of the polynomial is always higher up (above) the graph of y=2-1/x, that alone is sufficient cause to state that the poly is always greater than 2-1/x.

You could also do this algebraically:  write the inequality

x^2+6x+18 > 2 -1/x.  This can be rewritten as x^2+6x+18-2+1/x > 0, or
                                                                         x^2+6x+16+1/x > 0

Try x=-3.  Then 9-18+16-1/3 = 6 2/3, which is greater than 0.

Or you could graph x^2+6x+16+1/x by hand or on a calculator.  Is the graph always above the x-axis?  If so,  x²+6x+18 is always greater than 2-1/x.

A total of 300 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student tickets sold was three times the number of adults tickets sold. How many adult tickets were sold?

Answers

75 Adults
225 Students

You can get this information using this system of equations:

x + y = 300
x - 3y = 0

By setting up and solving an equation, it was determined that 75 adult tickets were sold for the school play.

To solve the problem of determining how many adult tickets were sold for the school play, we can set up an equation. Let's represent the number of adult tickets sold as A, and since the number of student tickets sold was three times that of adult tickets, we can express the student tickets sold as 3A. We know the total tickets sold were 300, so the equation to represent this scenario is:

A + 3A = 300

Combining like terms, we get:

4A = 300

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for A gives us:

A = 300 / 4

A = 75

Therefore, 75 adult tickets were sold.

An organization will give a prize to a local artist. The artist will be randomly chosen from among 10 painters, 3 sculptors, and 5 photographers. What is the probability that the artist chosen will be a sculptor or a photographer?

Answers

The probability is 8/18 or 44%.


Since there are 3 sculptors and 5 photographers, and the question is asking for either a sculptor or photographer, you add them together. There are a total of 18 artists, and the probability is the chance of a certain thing happening over the total amount of things that can happen (i.e. a coin landing on heads is 50%).

The answer would be 8/18.

8/18
3+5=8
18 is the total number of artists. 

Find the possible values of the included angle of a triangle with: A) sides of length 5 cm and 8 cm, and area of 15 cm^2
B) sides of length 45 km and 53 km, and area 800 km^2.

Answers

we know that

The area of ​​a triangle can be calculated by applying the law of sines

Area=(1/2)*a*b*sin C-----> sin C=2*A/[a*b]

Part a) sides of length 5 cm and 8 cm, and area of 15 cm^2
a=5 cm
b=8 cm
A=15  cm²
sin C=2*A/[a*b]------> sin C=2*15/[5*8]----> sin C=3/4
C=arc sin (3/4)-----> C=48.59 degrees
the possible values of the included angle are
C1=48.59°
C2=180°-48.59----> C2=131.41°

the answer Part a) is
48.59° and 131.41°

Part b) sides of length 45 km and 53 km, and area 800 km^2
a=45 km
b=53 km
A=800 km²
sin C=2*A/[a*b]-----> sin C=2*800/[45*53]----> sin C=0.6709
C=arc sin (0.6709)-----> C=42.13°
C1=42.13°
C2=180-42.13°----> C2=137.87°

the answer part b) is
42.13° and 137.87°

In which quadrant of the coordinate plane is (-2a - 3, -3b - 5), if a = -3 and b = 3?

Answers

(-2a - 3, -3b - 5), if a = -3 and b = 3

- 2a - 3 = -2(-3) - 3 = 6 - 3 = 3
-3b - 5 = -3(3) - 5 = -9 - 5 = -14

(3, -14)

answer: 
quadrant IV

After substituting a = -3 and b = 3 into the point (-2a - 3, -3b - 5), we get the point (3, -14), which lies in the fourth quadrant of the coordinate plane.

To determine in which quadrant of the coordinate plane the point (-2a - 3, -3b - 5) is located, we substitute the values a = -3 and b = 3 into the coordinates. First, for the x-coordinate we have:

-2(-3) - 3 = 6 - 3 = 3

And for the y-coordinate:

-3(3) - 5 = -9 - 5 = -14

The resulting point is (3, -14), which is located in the fourth quadrant because the x-value is positive and the y-value is negative.

Jesse made a model of a mountain range for class. to do this, he bought a cylinder of cardboard and cut it into three cones. each cone is 5 inches tall and has a diameter of 4 inches. what was the volume of the original cylinder jesse bought in terms of \piπ?

Answers

By definition, the volume of the cone is given by:
 V = (1/3) (π) (r ^ 2) (h)
 Substituting values we have:
 V = (1/3) (π) ((4/2) ^ 2) (5)
 V = (20/3) (π)
 Then, the volume of the cylinder is:
 Vc = 3 * V
 Vc = 3 * (20/3) (π)
 Vc = 20π
 Answer:
 
the volume of the original cylinder jesse bought is:
 
Vc = 20π

The volume of the original cylinder that Jesse bought is 20π cubic inches.

To find the volume of the original cylinder Jesse bought, we need to use the volume formula for a cylinder:

V = πr²h

First, we need to find the volume of each cone using the formula:

Volume of a cone = (1/3)πr²h

Given:

Height(h) of each cone = 5 inchesDiameter of each cone = 4 inches, so the radius(r) = 4/2 = 2 inches

Volume of one cone:

V_cone = (1/3)π(2)²(5) = (1/3)π(4)(5) = (20/3)π cubic inches

Total volume of three cones:

V_total_cones = 3 × (20/3)π = 20π cubic inches

Since the volume of the cylinder equals the total volume of the cones:

V_cylinder = 20π cubic inches

The probability that the Cubs win their first game is 1/3. The probability that the Cubs win their second game is 3/7. What is the probability that the Cubs win games?

Answers

We need to multiply these probabilities up. Indeed, we are talking about independent events. Then, the final answer is 1/3 * 3/7=1/7

The correct answer is:


1/7.


Explanation:


The two events, the Cubs winning their first game and the Cubs winning their second game, are independent. This is because the Cubs winning their first game does not affect the probability of the Cubs winning their second game.


Since the events are independent, to find the probability that both events occur, multiply the probabilities:


1/3(3/7) = (1*3)/(3*7) = 3/21 = 1/7
