Seven less than one-fourth of a number is 2. What is the number?

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the equation given, it can be deduced that the value of the number will be 36.

Let the number be represented by x

Therefore, seven less than one-fourth of a number will be:

=(1/4 × x) - 7

= 0.25x - 7

Now, seven less than one-fourth of a number is 2 will be written as:

0.25x - 7 = 2

0.25x = 2 + 7

0.25x = 9

x = 9/0.25

x = 36

Find two numbers whose sum 7500 and whose product is the maximum value.
(Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
Blank = 1
Blank = 2

Answers

The two numbers whose sum is 7500 and whose product  is a maximum value are 3750 and 3750.

Let the two numbers be x and y.

Since their sum equals 7500,

x + y = 7500  (1)

Their product f(x,y) = xy  (2)

We desire to maximize the product.

From (1), x = 7500 - y

Substituting x into (2), we have

f(x,y) = xy

f(x,y) = (7500 - y)y

f(y) = 7500y - y²

To maximize the product, we find the value of y that maximizes f(y), we differentiate f(y) and equate it to zero.

So, df(y)/dy = d(7500y - y²)/dy

f'(y)/dy = d(7500y)/dy - dy²/dy

f'(y)/dy = 7500 - 2y

Equating it to zero, we have

7500 - 2y = 0

7500 = 2y

y = 7500/2

y = 3750

To determine if this gives a maximum for f(y), we differentiate f'(y) with respect to y.

So, f"(y) = d(7500 - 2y)dy

f"(y) = 0 - 2

f"(y) = -2 < 0.

So, y = 3750 gives a maximum for f(y) = f(x, y)

Since x = 7500 - y

Substituing y = 3750 into the equation, we have

x = 7500 - 3750

x = 3750

So, the two numbers whose sum is 7500 and whose product is a maximum product are 3750 and 3750.

Don Swifter earns $9.75 per hour as a clerk. He starts work Monday through Friday morning at 8:00 AM. He takes a one-half hour lunch break every day. If he finishes work at 3:30 PM Monday through Thursday, how late must he work on Friday to have total pay of $360.75 for the week?

Answers

Answer:

He works until 5:30.

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so first, every day don would take a total of 7 hours and 30 minutes on mon-Thurs. If we subtract his lunch from that total it would be 7 hours so next we do 7 hours times 9.75 which is 68.25$. Now that we know how much he makes per day, we times that by 4 since mon-thurs is 4 days. This would be 273$. Now we need to get to 360.75 so we subtract that. This would be 87.75$. Now if a normal day is 68.25$ and friday is 87.75, we find the diffrence which is 19.50. which is also 9.75(an hour) x 2 resulting in 2 hours extra. Therefore, he works 9 hours and 30 minutes on fridays (until 5:30). Thanks for putting in the work to understand and have a nice day!

Don must work approximately 9 additional hours on Friday to have a total pay of $360.75 for the week.

How to determine how late he must work

Don works from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM Monday through Thursday. Let's calculate his total work hours for these four days:

Total work hours from Monday to Thursday:

(3:30 PM - 8:00 AM) - 0.5 hours (lunch break)

= 7.5 hours - 0.5 hours

= 7 hours (per day)

Total work hours for the week (Monday to Thursday):

4 days x 7 hours/day = 28 hours

Total pay for the week = Hourly rate x Total work hours + Additional hours on Friday

$360.75 = $9.75 x 28 hours + Additional hours on Friday

Additional hours on Friday = ($360.75 - $9.75 x 28) / $9.75

Additional hours on Friday = ($360.75 - $273) / $9.75

Additional hours on Friday = $87.75 / $9.75

Additional hours on Friday ≈ 9 hours (rounded to the nearest hour)

The relation is NOT a function

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is only a function if ALL the x-values (the first number in the pairs) ONLY have one partner.

Check that -1

At first that -1 is paired up with a 5 in the ordered pair (-1, 5) but then later... that -1 is down there hanging out with a 1 in the last ordered pair (-1, 1).

This means that this relation (all the pairs lumped together) is NOT a function. Just because of that -1 pairing up with more that one partner.

I MARK BRAINLIEST AND 50 points!!! find the magnitude of the resultant. forces of 92.6 lb and 118 lb act on an object. the angle between the forces is 75.2°.
a) 208 lb
b) 130 lb
c ) 168 lb
d) 150 lb

Answers

Answer:

This a vector addition problem and you need to know the law of cosines and law of sines to solve this problem.

Two vector forces of 80lbs and 70 lbs act on an object at 40 degree angle between them.

The magnitude of the resultant force can be found by applying the law of cosines:

c2 = a2 + b2 - 2abcos140°

where a = 80, b = 70 and c is the resultant force vector you are asked to find

Once you find the magnitude of the resultant force, then you can find the angle it makes wrt the 70lb force using the law of sines:

sinα/a = sin140°/c

where α is the angle opposite side a, or the angle between the resultant and the 70lb vector that you are asked to find. so it would be 140lbs

Answer:

C: [tex](2x+5)(4x^2-10x+25)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you need to be able to recognize the two terms as cubes, and what they are cubes of. In this case, [tex]8x^3 = (2x)^3[/tex] and [tex]125=5^3[/tex].

Then you have to find a way you like to remember the formula for how to factorize. The way I do it is by saying "the binomial has the same zero as the original, so [tex]x^3+a^3=(x+a)(...)[/tex] and [tex]x^3-a^3 = (x-a)(...)[/tex] and the whole expression has one minus sign attached to the second term of either factor. In the sum of cubes first parenthesis has a plus, so the second term of the other parentesis has to take that minus: [tex]x^3+a^3=(x+a)(x^2-ax+a^2)[/tex] while in the difference of cubes you already used a minus, so everything else goes plus: [tex]x^3-a^3=(x-a)(x^2+ax+a^2)[/tex]

Which of the following graphs is described by the function given below?

-A. Graph A

The function y = 2x^2 + 6x + 3 is a quadratic function that has a vertex of (-1.5,-1.5)

How to determine the graph of the function?

The equation of the function is given as:

y = 2x^2 + 6x + 3

Differentiate

y' = 4x + 6

Set to 0

4x + 6 = 0

This gives

4x = -6

Divide by 4

x = -1.5

Substitute x = -1.5 in y = 2x^2 + 6x + 3

y = 2(-1.5)^2 + 6(-1.5) + 3

Evaluate

y = -1.5

This means that the function y = 2x^2 + 6x + 3 has a vertex of (-1.5,-1.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

In an A.P. if Tₚ = q and Tq = p, then find the rth term.
Please solve this problem​

Answers

Formula:

We know that

nth term of the AP is Tn = a+(n-1)d

Where, a = First term

d = Common difference

n = number of terms

Now,

Given that

pth term of the A.P. = Tp = q

⇛a + (p-1)d = q

⇛(p-1)d = q - a

⇛d = (q-a)/(p-1) →→→→(i)

and

qth term of the A.P. = Tq = p

⇛a + (q-1) d = p

⇛ (q-1)d = p-a

⇛ d = (p-a)/(q-1) →→→→(ii)

From Eqn(i) and Eqn(ii)

⇛(q-a)/(p-1) = (p-a)/(q-1)

On applying cross multiplication then

⇛(q-a)×(q-1) = (p-a)×(p-1)

⇛q²-q-aq+a = p²-p-ap+a

⇛q²-q-aq = p²-p-ap

⇛ap-aq = p²-p+q-q²

⇛a(p-q) = (p²-q²)-(p-q)

⇛a(p-q) = (p+q)(p-q)-(p-q)

⇛ a(p-q) = (p-q){(p+q)-1}

On cancelling (p-q) both sides then

⇛a = (p+q-1) →→→→Eqn(iii)

On Substituting the value of a in Eqn(ii) then

⇛ d = [p-(p+q-1)]/(q-1)

⇛d = (p-p-q+1)/(q-1)

⇛d = (-q+1)/(q-1)

⇛d = -(q-1)/(q-1)

⇛d = -1

We have,

a = p+q-1 and d = -1

Now, rth term of the AP

⇛ Tr = a + (r-1)d

⇛Tr = (p+q-1)+(r-1)(-1)

⇛ Tr = p+q-1+(-r+1)

⇛ Tr = p+q-1-r+1

⇛ Tr = p+q-r

Therefore, Tr = p+q-r

Answer: rth term of the given A.P. is p+q-r

Answer:

rth=q+p+qxp

Step-by-step explanation:

rth= 3 of the T and Tq added together and joined.
