Solving the Question

We're given:

Fifteen is three times the difference between three times a number, n, and four.

Divide the sentence into parts:

[Fifteen] [is] [three times the difference between three times a number, n, and four]

Translate into numbers and operations:

15 = [three times the difference between three times a number, n, and four]15 = 3 × [difference between three times a number, n, and four]15 = 3 × (3n - 4)

Isolate n:

15 = 3 × (3n - 4)

15 = 9n - 12

27 = 9n

n = 3

Answer

15 = 3 × (3n - 4)

n = 3

A cylinder, cone, and sphere all have the same radius of 5 cm. The cone and cylinder have the
same height of 6 cm.
Find the volume of each shape. Show your work or explain your work.
Which shape would hold them most?

Answers

The volume of the cylinder is 471.43 cm³.

The volume of the cone is 157.14 cm³.

The volume of the sphere is  523.81 cm³.

The shape that would hold the most volume is the sphere.

What is the volume of a cylinder?

A cylinder is a three-dimensional object. It is a prism with a circular base.

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Where:

π = 22/7

r = radius

22/7 x 5² x 6 = 471.43 cm³

What is the volume of a cone?

Volume of a cone = 1/3 x volume of a cylinder

1/3 x  471.43 cm³ = 157.14 cm³

What is the volume of a sphere?

Volume of a sphere = 4/3 x pi x r³

4/3 x 5³ x 22/7 = 523.81 cm³

Answers

Answer:

x = -1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 4 = (x - 2)(x + 2)  so if we multiply each term by x^2 -4 we get:

2 - 1(x - 2) = 3(x + 2)

2 - x + 2 = 3x + 6

2 + 2 - 6 = 3x + x

4x = -2

x = -1/2.

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Multiply both sides of the equation by the LCM (x - 2)(x + 2):

[tex]\frac{2}{x^{2} -4} (x-2)(x+2)[/tex]

factor x² - 4 by rewriting it as x² - 2²

x² - 2² = (x + 2)(x - 2)

now we have;

[tex]\frac{2}{(x+2)(x-2)} (x-2)(x+2)[/tex]

cancel the common factors (x - 2)(x + 2)

= 2

-------------------------------

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

cross cancel the common factor (x + 2)

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

-------------------------------

[tex]\frac{3}{x-2} (x-2)(x+2)[/tex]

cross cancel the common factor (x - 2)

3(x + 2)

distribute the 3

3x + 6

-------------------------------

combining all new values, we have;

2 + (-x) + 2 = 3x + 6

-x + 4 = 3x + 6

2. Isolate x:

-x + 4-4 = 3x + 6-4

-x = 3x + 2

-x-3x = 3x-3x + 2

-4x = 2

-4x/-4 = 2/-4

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

Nick bought a new car.
Each year the car depreciates in value by 12%.
Work out the number of years it takes for the car to half in value.

Answers

Using an exponential function, it is found that it takes 5.42 years for the car to halve in value.

What is an exponential function?

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the car depreciates 12% a year in value, hence r = 0.12 and the equation is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.88)^t[/tex].

It halves in value at t years, for which A(t) = 0.5A(0), hence:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(0.88)^t[/tex]

[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)(0.88)^t[/tex]

[tex](0.88)^t = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\log{(0.88)^t} = \log{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]t\log{0.88} = \log{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{\log{0.5}}{\log{0.88}}[/tex]

t = 5.42.

It takes 5.42 years for the car to halve in value.

Find the domain of the inverse

Answers

The domain of the inverse of the function f(x) = 5e^x + 3 is found being all real numbers > 3. Or, we can write this symbolically as: D( f^(-1)(x)) = (3,∞)

What is domain and range of a function?

Domain is the set of values for which the given function is defined.

Range is the set of all values which the given function can output.

What is inverse of a function?

Suppose that the given function is

[tex]f:X\rightarrow Y[/tex]

Then, if function 'f' is one-to-one and onto function (a needed condition for inverses to exist), then, the inverse of the considered function is

[tex]f^{-1}: Y \rightarrow X[/tex]

such that:

[tex]\forall \: x \in X : f(x) \in Y, \exists \: y \in Y : f^{-1}(y) \in X[/tex]

(and vice versa).

It simply means, inverse of 'f' is undo operator, that takes back the effect of 'f'

The domain of the inverse of a function (if it exists) is the range of the function it is inverse of. Similarly range of the inverse of that considered function is the domain of that considered function.

The function given is:

[tex]f(x) = 5e^x + 3[/tex]

The domain of the inverse of this function is this function's range.

Assuming only real values are allowed, for any real number x, we have:

[tex]e^x > 0[/tex]

And therefore, we get:

[tex]5e^x > 0 \: \forall x \in \mathbb R\\5e^x + 3 > 3 \: \forall x \in \mathbb R\\[/tex]

Also, since the function [tex]f(x) = 5e^x + 3[/tex] is strictly monotonically increasing and continuous, it touches all the values as its output from any real number > 3 till any finitely large number.

Thus, its range is (3, ∞) (it is an interval consisting of all the real numbers > 3)

This is the domain of its inverse function.

Thus, the domain of the inverse of the function f(x) = 5e^x + 3 is found being set of all real numbers > 3. Or, we can write this symbolically as: D( f^(-1)(x)) = (3,∞)

Find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

x = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

because the angles are on a line that means they add up to 180

18 + x + 5x = 180

then combine like terms

18 + 6x = 180

then you subtract 18 from both sides

6x = 162

lastly divide both sides by 6

So, the distance between two points be: [tex]\sqrt{(y-x)^{2}+(b-a)^{2}}[/tex]

As water wheel is designed in the shape of regular octagon.

To find the perimeter of the  water wheel.

Since the water wheel is in the shape of regular octagon all sides are equal.
