Ribbon is sold at $7 for 3 metres at the factory and $2.50 per metre at the store. How much money is saved when 15 metres of ribbon is bought at the factory rather than at the store?​

first off, let's look at the equation of the circle

[tex]\textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ (x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2 \hspace{5em}\stackrel{center}{(\underset{}{h}~~,~~\underset{}{k})}\qquad \stackrel{radius}{\underset{}{r}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ (x-\stackrel{h}{3})^2+(y-\stackrel{k}{7})=169\implies (x-\stackrel{h}{3})^2+(y-\stackrel{k}{7})=\stackrel{ r }{13^2}[/tex]

so we have a circle centered at (3 , 7) with a radius of 13, Check the picture below.

so the line we want is the line in purple, which is tangential to the circle and therefore perpendicular to the blue line.

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, let's check for the slope of the blue line

[tex](\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{\large rise}} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{7}}}{\underset{\textit{\large run}} {\underset{x_2}{15}-\underset{x_1}{3}}} \implies \cfrac{ -5 }{ 12 } \implies - \cfrac{5 }{ 12 } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill[/tex]

[tex]\stackrel{~\hspace{5em}\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}~\hspace{5em}} {\stackrel{slope}{ \cfrac{-5}{12}} ~\hfill \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{12}{-5}} ~\hfill \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{12}{-5} \implies \cfrac{12}{ 5 }}}[/tex]

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 12/5 and it passes through (15 , 2)

[tex](\stackrel{x_1}{15}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ \cfrac{12}{5} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{2}=\stackrel{m}{ \cfrac{12}{5}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{15}) \\\\\\ y-2=\cfrac{12}{5}x-36\implies {\Large \begin{array}{llll} y=\cfrac{12}{5}x-34 \end{array}}[/tex]

The expression that gives the length of the rectangular prism in feet is option D: 27/(2x^2+100).

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.

We are given that the volume of the rectangular prism is 135ft^3, and the width is (2x+10)ft. Also, the height is 5 times the width, so h = 5w.

Substituting these values in the formula for the volume, we get:

135 = l(2x+10)(5w)

Dividing both sides by (2x+10)(5w), we get:

l = 135 / (2x+10)(5w)

l = 135 / [10(x+5)w]

Now we can substitute h = 5w:

l = 135 / [10(x+5)h/5]

l = 135 / [2(x+5)h]

l = 135 / [2(x+5)(5w)]

l = 135 / [10(x+5)^2]

Simplifying the expression, we get:

l = 27 / (2(x+5)^2)

Therefore, the expression that gives the length of the rectangular prism in feet is option D: 27/(2x^2+100).

In a regular tiling, if there are six polygons meeting at a vertex, then the angles at the vertex are 120 degrees.

This is because each regular polygon has interior angles that are multiples of 180 degrees divided by the number of sides. For a regular hexagon, which has six sides, each interior angle measures 120 degrees. When six regular hexagons meet at a vertex in a regular tiling, the total angle sum at the vertex is 720 degrees (6 times 120 degrees).

Since the angles must be divided equally among the six hexagons, each angle at the vertex is 120 degrees.

The length of the rectangle is 19 feet and its width is 13 feet.

Let's denote the width of the rectangle by w. Then, according to the problem statement, the length of the rectangle is 6 feet longer, which means it is equal to w + 6.

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula:

perimeter = 2 × length + 2 × width

Substituting the expressions for length and width that we have just found, we get:

64 = 2 × (w + 6) + 2w

Simplifying the right-hand side:

64 = 2w + 12 + 2w

64 = 4w + 12

52 = 4w

w = 13

So the width of the rectangle is 13 feet. Using the expression for the length we found earlier, the length is:

length = w + 6 = 13 + 6 = 19

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 19 feet and its width is 13 feet.

(a) The cost of City Bus for driving 10 miles = $3.

(b) The cost of City Bus for driving 25 miles = $7.5.

(c) The cost of City Bus for driving 42 miles = $12.6.

(d) The cost of City Bus for driving 68 miles = $20.4.

We previously choose City Bus as our mode transport since the per mile cost for City Bus is less.

Let the model for City Bus be f(x) = cx + d, where f(x) is total cost and x is number of miles.

From the table of Taxi we get, f(2) = 0.60; f(4) = 1.20; f(6) = 1.80 and f(8) = 2.40.

So, 2a + b = 0.60 and 4a + b = 1.20

(4a + b) - (2a + b) = 1.20 - 0.60

2a = 0.60

a = 0.60/2 = 0.30

Now, f(8) = 2.40

8*0.30 + b = 2.40

2.40 + b = 2.40

b = 2.40 - 2.40 = 0

So the function rule for City Bus is, f(x) = 0.3x.

(a) Total cost to drive 10 miles is,

f(10) = 0.3*10 = 3

(b) Total cost to drive 25 miles is,

f(25) = 0.3*25 = 7.5

(c) Total cost to drive 42 miles is,

f(42) = 0.3*42 = 12.6

Answer:

since 2x = z

replace z with 2x

900000 = x+y+z

900000 = x+y+2x

900000 = 3x+y - eqn (1)

79750= 0.08x +0.09y+0.01z

79750 = 0.08x +0.09y+0.01(2x)

79750 = 0.08x+0.09y+0.02x

79750 = 0.10x +0.09y - eqn(2)

from eqn(1)

900000 = 3x + y

y = 900000-3x - eqn(3)

substitute eqn(3) in eqn(2)

79750 = 0.1x +0.09y

79750=0.1x + 0.09(900000-3x)

79750=0.1x+ 81000 - 0.27x

collect like terms

79750 -81000 = 0.1x-0.27x

-1250 = -0.17x

The first derivative of S is S' = 1/15.
The second derivative of S is S'' = 0.

To find the first derivative (S'):

Starting with the given equation S = 15 + 344 - 1 15, we can simplify it to S = 344 + 15.

We can take the derivative of each term separately since they are added together.

The derivative of a constant (15 and 344) is always 0, so we only need to take the derivative of 1/15.

S' = d/dx (344 + 15)

= d/dx (359)

= 0 + 0 + (d/dx (1/15))

= 1/15

Therefore, the first derivative of S is S' = 1/15.

To find the second derivative (S''):

We need to take the derivative of the first derivative (S').

Since the derivative of a constant is always 0,

we only need to take the derivative of 1/15.

S'' = d/dx (S')

= d/dx (1/15)

= 0

Using trigonometry, we can solve for the missing angles to find them as 18.43°, 45°, 45°, and 18.43°.

The sign is mounted on a sloped surface, which means that we'll need to use some trigonometry to find the missing angles.

Let's concentrate on the sign's upper right corner, where the letters x and y are absent from two perspectives. The magnitude of angle x may be determined using trigonometry.

Let's begin by sketching a right triangle that has an angle x. The triangle's two sides may be represented by the sign's vertical and horizontal lines, with the addition of a third side to join the top right corner of the sign to the sloping area below.

Since the sign is an octagon, we know that each interior angle is 135°. Therefore, the measure of angle y must be:

y = 180 - 135 = 45°

Now, let's look at the right triangle that includes angle x. We know that the hypotenuse of the triangle is the sloped surface of the sign, which has a length of 4.5 meters. We also know that the opposite side of the triangle is the height of the sign above the ground, which has a length of 1.5 meters.

Using trigonometry, we can find the measure of angle x by taking the inverse tangent of the opposite side over the adjacent side:

tan(x) = opposite/adjacent = 1.5/4.5 = 1/3

x = tan⁻¹(1/3) ≈ 18.43°

Therefore, the measure of angle x is approximately 18.43 degrees.

Hence, using trigonometry, we can solve for the missing angles to find them as 18.43°, 45°, 45°, and 18.43°.

One point that would lie on the second line is (0,-4). Another  possible point on the 2nd line is (0, 12).

To find the equation of the first line, we can use the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope of the line passing through (-3,8) and (1,9) can be found using the formula:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (9 - 8) / (1 - (-3))

m = 1/4

Using one of the points and the slope, we can find the y-intercept:

8 = (1/4)(-3) + b

b = 9

So the equation of the first line is:

y = (1/4)x + 9

To find the equation of the second line, we need to use the fact that it is perpendicular to the first line. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, so the slope of the second line is:

m2 = -1/m1 = -1/(1/4) = -4

Using the point-slope form, we can write the equation of the second line:

y - 4 = -4(x + 2)

y - 4 = -4x - 8

y = -4x - 4

To find a point that lies on this line, we can plug in a value for x and solve for y. For example, if we let x = 0, then:

y = -4(0) - 4

y = -4

So the point (0,-4) lies on the second line.

Therefore, another point that would lie on the second line is (0,-4).

The loan with the smallest monthly payment is the 30-month loan at 6% annual simple interest rate, with a monthly payment of $45.83.

To determine the loan with the smallest monthly payment, we need to calculate the monthly payment for each loan option and compare them.

We can use the formula for monthly payment on a simple interest loan:

monthly payment = (principal + (principal * interest rate * time)) / total number of payments

where:

We can compute the monthly payments for each loan choice using this formula:

1. 12 Monthly interest rate = 0.0625/12 = 0.00521, monthly payment = (1250 + (1250 * 0.00521 * 12)) / 12 = $107.35

2. 18 months at 6.75%: monthly interest rate = 0.0675/12 = 0.00563, monthly payment = (1250 + (1250 * 0.00563 * 18)) / 18 = $81.96

3. 24 months at 6.5%: monthly interest rate = 0.065/12 = 0.00542, monthly payment = (1250 + (1250 * 0.00542 * 24)) / 24 = $66.14

4. 30 months at 6%: monthly interest rate = 0.06/12 = 0.005, monthly payment = (1250 + (1250 * 0.005 * 30)) / 30 = $45.83

Based on these calculations, the loan with the smallest monthly payment is the 30-month loan at 6% annual simple interest rate, with a monthly payment of $45.83.

415 square inches of bubble wrap to cover the cylindrical vase that is 16 inches tall with a diameter of 6 inches.

To calculate how much bubble wrap is needed to cover the cylindrical vase, you will need to find the circumference and height of the vase.

First, calculate the circumference of the vase using the diameter of 6 inches:
Circumference = π x diameter
Circumference = 3.14 x 6
Circumference = 18.84 inches

Next, calculate the height of the vase which is given as 16 inches.

To find the surface area of the vase, you will need to multiply the circumference by the height and add the area of the circular bases. The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

Surface area = 2πr² + 2πrh
where r is the radius and h is the height.

Since the vase has circular bases, we can find the area of each base by using the formula:
Area of circle = πr²

Now, let's find the radius of the vase:
[tex]Radius = \frac{diameter}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Radius = \frac{6}{2}[/tex]
Radius = 3 inches

So, the area of each base is:

Area of base = π x (radius)²
Area of base = π x 3²
Area of base = 28.27 square inches

The total area of the two bases is 2 x 28.27 = 56.54 square inches.

Now, let's find the surface area of the cylinder:

Surface area = 2πr² + 2πrh
Surface area = 2 x π x 3² + 2 x π x 3 x 16
Surface area = 113.1 + 301.44
Surface area = 414.54 square inches

Therefore, you would need approximately 415 square inches of bubble wrap to cover the cylindrical vase that is 16 inches tall with a diameter of 6 inches.

This means that there is still 1 - 0.5833 = 0.4167 (or 41.67%) of the habitat left to complete.

Next, we can use a proportion to find out how long it will take to complete the remaining 41.67% of the habitat:

215 days / 0.5833 = x days / 0.4167

Solving for x, we get:

x = 215 days * 0.4167 / 0.5833 ≈ 153 days

To find the extremes of 4x−4y subject to the condition x2 + 2y2 = 1, we can use the method of Lagrange multipliers.

First, we set up the Lagrange equation:

∇f(x,y) = λ∇g(x,y)

where f(x,y) = 4x-4y and g(x,y) = x2 + 2y2 - 1.

Taking partial derivatives, we have:

∂f/∂x = 4
∂f/∂y = -4
∂g/∂x = 2x
∂g/∂y = 4y

Setting these equal to their respective Lagrange multipliers, we have:

4 = 2λx
-4 = 4λy
x2 + 2y2 = 1

Solving for x and y in terms of λ, we get:

x = 2λ/4 = λ/2
y = -λ/4

Substituting these back into the constraint equation, we have:

(λ/2)2 + 2(-λ/4)2 = 1
λ2/4 + λ2/8 = 1
3λ2/8 = 1
λ2 = 8/3

Taking the positive and negative square roots of λ2, we have:

λ = ±2√2/3

Substituting these values back into x and y, we get:

For λ = 2√2/3:
x = (2√2/3)/2 = √2/3
y = -(2√2/3)/4 = -√2/6

For λ = -2√2/3:
x = (-2√2/3)/2 = -√2/3
y = -(-2√2/3)/4 = √2/6

Now we can find the extreme values of f(x,y) by plugging in these values of x and y:

f(√2/3, -√2/6) = 4(√2/3) - 4(-√2/6) = 4√2
f(-√2/3, √2/6) = 4(-√2/3) - 4(√2/6) = -4√2

Therefore, the maximum value of 4x-4y subject to the condition x2 + 2y2 = 1 is 4√2 and the minimum value is -4√2.

The solution to the given equation is x = -3/4 or x = 1.

In order to find the solution, we start by squaring both sides of the equation to eliminate the square roots:

12x² - 4 = 4x + 8

Next, we simplify the equation by moving all the terms to one side:

12x² - 4x - 12 = 0

Now we can factor the quadratic equation:

4x² - x - 3 = 0

By factoring or using the quadratic formula, we find that the equation can be written as:

(4x + 3)(x - 1) = 0

Setting each factor equal to zero gives us the solutions:

4x + 3 = 0 or x - 1 = 0

Solving for x in each equation yields:

x = -3/4 or x = 1

Therefore, the solution to the given equation is x = -3/4 or x = 1.

The percent discount on the sneakers is 10%

Casho paid $22.50 before tax, despite the item's $25 tag price. The discount is the difference between the original price and the sale price, which is $25 - $22.50 = $2.50.

The discount is the difference between the original price and the discounted price, expressed as a percentage of the original price.

To find the percent discount, we divide the discount by the original price and multiply by 100:

Percent discount = (discount / tag price) x 100

Percent discount = ($2.50 / $25) x 100

Percent discount = 0.1 x 100

Percent discount = 10%

Therefore, the percent discount on the sneakers is 10%

A ten-by-ten grid has 7 columns shaded. All of the following that represent the part of the grid that is shaded are : The correct answer is (A) 70 and (B) 7.

The information given in the problem tells us that a ten-by-ten grid has 7 columns shaded. Since there are a total of 10 columns in the grid, this means that 7/10 of the columns are shaded.

To express this as a percentage, we can divide 7 by 10 and multiply by 100:

(7/10) x 100 = 70%

Therefore, 70 represents the percentage of columns that are shaded in the grid. Option (A) is correct.

Alternatively, we can express the same proportion as a decimal by dividing 7 by 10:

7/10 = 0.7

Therefore, 0.7 represents the proportion of columns that are shaded in the grid. Option (E) is incorrect because it shows 0.7 as a fraction instead of a decimal.

Option (B) is also correct because it correctly identifies the number of shaded columns as 7. Option (C) is incorrect because it includes both the percentage and the number of shaded columns, which is redundant. Option (D) is incorrect because it shows the proportion of shaded columns as a decimal with an extra zero.

The pole is approximately 3.86 feet tall.

Let's denote the height of the pole as "x" (in feet). From the problem, we know that the pole makes a 75° angle with the road surface, which means that the angle between the pole and the vertical is 90° - 75° = 15°.

Now, we can use the tangent function to find the height of the pole:

tan(15°) = x/15

Multiplying both sides by 15, we get:

x = 15 tan(15°) ≈ 3.86 feet

The rule that best represents the dilation that was applied to quadrilateral FGHJ to create quadrilateral F'G'H'J' is option B, which is (x, y) à (1.4x, 1.4y).

A dilation is a transformation that changes the size of an object without changing its shape. It is performed by multiplying the coordinates of each point by a scale factor.

In this case, the center of dilation is the origin, which means that the coordinates of each point are multiplied by the same scale factor in both the x and y directions.

The scale factor can be found by comparing the corresponding side lengths of the two quadrilaterals. In this case, the scale factor is 1.4, which means that the lengths of the sides of F'G'H'J' are 1.4 times the lengths of the corresponding sides of FGHJ.
