there is a stack of old algebra books in the library. Each book is 1 1/4 inches thick. let b represent the number of books in a stack and s(b) represent the total height of the stack in inches. what is the equation?

Answers

Answer 1

The equation which represents the height of the books is  [tex]s(b)=\frac{5}{4} b[/tex]

A mathematical equation is a formula that uses the equals sign to represent the equality of two expressions. An equation between two sums of monomials of degree 0 or 1 is known as a linear equation.

The books are stacked one above the other and each book is [tex]1\frac{1}{4}[/tex] inches thick.

So to calculate the total height of the stack we have to multiply the number of books in the stack with the thickness of each book.

The total thickness is represented in the from of a function as

s(b) and the thickness of each book is [tex]1\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}[/tex] inches

total height=[tex]\frac{5}{4}\times b[/tex]

Therefore the required equation is  [tex]s(b)=\frac{5}{4} b[/tex].

The sum of two numbers is -316. One number is 94 less than the other. Find the numbers

Answers

Answer: -111 and -205

Explanation:

Using the description, we can set up equations to solve for the two numbers. First we assign variables to the numbers: Number 1 will be “x” and number 2 will be “y”.

For the first part [The sum of two numbers is -316] the equation will be:
x + y = -316

For the second part [One number is 94 less than the other] the equation will be:
x = y - 94

Those two equations give us a system of equations we can use to solve for the variables.

Equation 1: x + y = -316
Equation 2: x = y - 94

Since we have an equation for what x is (equation 2), we can substitute that into equation 1 and solve for y.

x + y = -316
(y - 94) + y = -316
[combine the ys]
2y - 94 = -316
[add 94 to both sides]
2y = -222
[divide by 2]
y = -111

Plug y into one of the equations and solve for x and you get: x = -205

Function

A function is a relation that maps an input value to a single output value. On a graph, this means no two points are vertically aligned. For a table or set of ordered pairs, it means no input (x) value is repeated.

The input (x) values are {-1, 0, 1, 2} with no repeats. This relation is a function.

(c) The line y = 5 is the line of symmetry of △PQR. Find the coordinates of R.
(d) Calculate the area of △PQR.
(e) Calculate the length of PQ and hence calculate the perpendicular distance from R to the line PQ.

Answers

We get that the equation of the line PQ will be 2 x - 7 y + 17 = 0.

A) We know that the equation of the line is:

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

where m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

Now, we have:

P = ( x₁, y₁) = (2, 3)

Q = (x₂, y₂) = (9, 5)

We get m by substituting the values as:

m = 5 - 3 / 9 - 2 = 2 / 7

The equation then will be:

y - y₁ = 2 / 7 (x - x₁)

Substituting the values, we get that:

y - 3 = 2/7 ( x - 2)

7 y - 21 = 2 x - 4

2 x - 7 y - 4 + 21 = 0

2 x - 7 y + 17 = 0

B) When PQ will intersect x-axis, then the point will be = ( x, 0)

2 x - 7 y + 17 = 0

2 x - 7 (0) + 17 = 0

2 x = -17

x = - 17 / 2

Point = (-17 / 2 , 0)

Therefore, we get that the equation of the line PQ will be 2 x - 7 y + 17 = 0.

5000 nails in five boxes. the first and second boxes have 2700 nails all together. the second and the third boxes have 2000 nails all together. the third and fourth boxes have 1800 nails all together. the fourth and the fifth boxes have 1700 nails all together. how many nails are in each box

Answers

The number of nails in each box is: 1300, 1400, 600, 1200, and 500

Given 5000 nails in five boxes.

Let X denote the universal set.

Then n(X) = 5000.

Let A denote the first box,

B denote the second box,

C denote the third box,

D denote the fourth box, and

E denotes the fifth box.

The first and second boxes have 2700 nails altogether.

⇒n(A ∪ B) = 2700

The second and third boxes have 2000 nails altogether.

⇒n(B ∪ C) = 2000

The third and fourth boxes have 1800 nails altogether.

⇒n(C ∪ D) = 1800

The fourth and fifth boxes have 1700 nails altogether.

⇒n(D ∪ E) = 1700

We need to find out how many nails are there in each box.

That is to find out: n(A), n(B), n(C), n(D), and n(E).

Note that all these five sets are disjoint. This means that the intersection is empty.

n(A ∪ B ∪ C ∪ D) = n(A ∪ B) + n(C ∪ D) = 2700 + 1800 = 4500

n(E) = n(X) - n(A ∪ B ∪ C ∪ D) = 5000 - 4500 = 500

n(D) = n(D ∪ E) - n(E) = 1700 - 500 = 1200

n(C) = n(C ∪ D) - n(D) = 1800 - 1200 = 600

n(B) = n(B U C) - n(C) = 2000 - 600 = 1400

n(A) = n(A U B) - n(B) = 2700 - 1400 = 1300

Therefore, the number of nails in each box is 1300, 1400, 600, 1200, and 500.

As per question statement, a high school student decides to apply four of six famous colleges.

We are required to calculate the number of combinations in which the four colleges can be selected.

To solve this question, we need to know the formula of Combination which goes as [tex](nCr)=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

, i.e., we are to select a set or "r" from a set of "n".

Here, we have to select a combination of 4 from a set of 6.

Therefore applying (nCr) formula with (n = 6) and (r = 4), we get,

[tex](6C4)=\frac{6!}{4!(6-4)!} =\frac{6!}{4!2!}=\frac{4!*5*6}{4!*2}=\frac{5*6}{2}=(5*3)=15[/tex].
