a positive real number is 2 more than another. if the sum of the squares of the two numbers is 14, find the numbers​

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

√6 -1 ≈ 1.44949√6 +1 ≈ 3.44949

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller number. Then the sum of squares is ...

  x² +(x+2)² = 14

  2x² +4x +4 = 14 . . . eliminate parentheses

  2x² +4x -10 = 0 . . . put in standard form

  x² +2x -5 = 0 . . . . . divide by 2 (because we can)

  (x +1)² -6 = 0 . . . . . complete the square

  x +1 = √6  . . .   we want the positive root

  x = -1 +√6

  x+2 = 1 +√6

The numbers are √6±1.

41. Suppose a family drives at an average rate of 60 mi/h on the way to visit relatives and then at an average rate of 40 mi/h on the way back. The return trip takes 1 h longer than the trip there.

a. Let d be the distance in miles the family traveled to visit their relatives. How

many hours did it take to drive there?

b. In terms of d, how many hours did it take to make the return trip?

C. Write and solve an equation to determine the distance the family drove to see

their relatives. What was the average rate for the entire trip?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let x represent the time taken to drive to see the relatives and let d be the distance travelled to go, hence:

60 mi/h = d/x

d = 60x

When returning, they still travelled a distance d, since the return trip takes 1 h longer than the trip there, therefore:

40 mi/h = d/(x+1)

d = 40(x + 1) = 40x + 40

Equating both equations:

60x = 40x + 40

60x - 40x = 40

20x = 40

x = 40/20

x = 2 h

The time taken to drive there = x = 2 hours

b) The time taken for return trip = x + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 hours

c) The distance d = 60x = 60(2) = 120 miles

The total distance to and fro = 2d = 2(120) = 240 miles

The total time to and fro = 2 h + 3 h = 5 h

Average speed = total distance / total time = 240 miles / 5 h = 48 mi/h

Answer:

A. The two rays form angle CAB.

C. The two rays make a line AC.

D. The two rays intersect at point A.

E. The two rays are perpendicular.

This is shown in figure 1 in the attachment provided.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rays, [tex] \overrightarrow{AB} [/tex] and [tex] \overrightarrow{AC} [/tex] shows that both rays have a common endpoint A.

Therefore, the following conditions exists:

A. "The two rays form angle CAB."

Take a look at figure 1 in the attachment provided below. The two rays meet at point A to form angle CAB.

C. "The two rays make a line AC."

As shown in figure 2 in the attachment provided below, [[tex] \overrightarrow{AB} [/tex] and [tex] \overrightarrow{AC} [/tex] have a common end point, A, and they extend in opposite directions to form a straight line AC. [tex] (\overline{AC}) [/tex]

D. "The two rays intersect at point A."

This is shown in figure 1 in the attachment provided.

E. "The two rays are perpendicular."

Since [tex] \overrightarrow{AB} [/tex] and [tex] \overrightarrow{AC} [/tex] intersect at point A, they are perpendicular to each other, forming a right angle at point A. This we can see in figure 2 provided in the attachment.

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 20 ft from the path and is kept focused on the man. At what rate is the searchlight rotating when the man is 15 ft from the point on the path closest to the searchlight

Answers

Answer:

0.128rad/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the between the man and the point on the path

θ = the angle

dx/dt = 4 ft/s

dθ/dt = rate is the searchlight rotating when the man is 15 ft from the point on the path closest to the searchlight

tan θ = x/20 ft

Cross Multiply

20tan θ = x

dx/dt = 20sec² θ dθ/dt

dθ/dt = 1/20 × cos² θ dx/dt

dθ/dt= 1/20 × cos² θ × 4

dθ/dt = 1/5 × cos² θ

Note : cos θ = 4/5

dθ/dt = 1/5 × (4/5)²

dθ/dt = 16/125

dθ/dt = 0.128rad/sec

You have the opportunity to lease space for your business. The property owner has proposed a four year lease with a rent of $29,000 per year. If a proposed rent increase is 2% per year what will the annual rent be at the end of four years? A.)$13,200 B.)$22,000 C.)$31,390 D.)$32,440​

Answers

Answer:

C.)$31,390

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the formula to calculate the future value to find the answer:

FV=PV*(1+i)^n

FV= future value

PV= present value= 29,000

i= interest rate=2%

n= number of periods of time= 4

Now, you can replace the values in  the formula:

FV=29,000*(1+0.02)^4

FV=29,000*(1.02)^4

FV=31,390

According to this, the answer is that the annual rent would be $31,390 at the end of four years.

According to a survey, 74% of households said that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. Suppose that this result is true for the current population of households.

b. Find to 3 decimal places the probability that exactly 7 households in a random sample of 10 will say that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. Use the binomial probability distribution formula.
Probability = ______.

Answers

Answer:

(a) S = {0, 1, 2, ..., 10}

(b) 0.256

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that, 74% of households said that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables.

(a)

X = the number of households in a random sample of 10 who have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables.

X follows a binomial distribution.

The sample space of X is:

S = {0, 1, 2, ..., 10}

(b)

Compute the probability that exactly 7 households in a random sample of 10 will say that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables as follows:

[tex]P(X=7)={10\choose 7}(0.74)^{7}(1-0.74)^{10-7}[/tex]

              [tex]=120\times 0.121513\times 0.017576\\\\=0.25628549856\\\\\approx 0.256[/tex]

Thus, the probability that exactly 7 households in a random sample of 10 will say that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables is 0.256.

What is Unitary Method?

The unitary technique involves first determining the value of a single unit,  followed by the value of the necessary number of units.

For example, Let's say Ram spends 36 Rs. for a dozen (12) bananas.

12 bananas will set you back 36 Rs. 1 banana costs 36 x 12 = 3 Rupees.

As a result, one banana costs three rupees. Let's say we need to calculate the price of 15 bananas.

This may be done as follows: 15 bananas cost 3 rupees each; 15 units cost 45 rupees.

Given:

Ms. Berg wrote 4 equal checks totaling $250 to pay for her salon services.

to with

So, to withdraw from the account to pay for services each month

= 250/4

= 125/2

= 62.5

Hence, she withdraw $62.5 from her account to pay for her services.
