Katy has a choice. She can buy a book of 6 round trip bus tickets from
Houston to Austin for a total of $522 or she can buy a book of 9 round trip
bus tickets from Houston to Austin for a total of $702. Which is the better
deal? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

buying a book of 9 round trip bus tickets from Houston to Austin for a total of $702 is a better deal because 702/9 = 78 which is less than 522/6 = 87

2. A more efficient packing of the discs is obtained by dividing the metal sheet into hexagons and cutting the circular lids and bases from the hexagons (see the last figure). Show that if this strategy is adopted, then
[tex] \frac{h}{r}=\frac{4 \sqrt{3}}{\pi} \approx 2.21 [/tex]

Answers

This exercise is about optimization and seeks to prove that if the new strategy of packing the discs is adopted, then h/r = [tex]\sqrt[4]{3}[/tex]/n ≈2.21.

What is the proof for the above strategy?

We must determine the amount of metal consumed by each end, or the area of each hexagon.

The hexagon is divided into six congruent triangles, each of which has one side (s in the diagram) in common with the hexagon.

Step I

Next, let's derive the length of s = 2r tan π/6 = (2/([tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])r². From this we can state that the area of each of the triangles are 1/2(sr) = (1/[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])r²

while the total area of the hexagon is 6 * (1/[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])r² = (2/[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])r².

From the above, we can state that the quantity we want to minimize is given as:

A =  2πrh + 2* (2/[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex])r²

Step 2

Next, we substitute for h and differentiate. This gives us:

da/dr = - (2V/r²) + [tex]\sqrt[8]{3r}[/tex].

Let us equate the above to zero.

[tex]\sqrt[8]{3r} ^{3}[/tex] = 2V = 2πr²h ⇒  h/r =[tex]\sqrt[4]{3}[/tex]/n  

The above is approximately 2.21

Because d²A/dr²=[tex]\sqrt[8]{3}[/tex] + 4V/r[tex]^{3}[/tex] > 0 the above minimizes A.

If 1/(a + b + c) = 1/a + 1/b + 1/c, show that 1/(a + b + c)^3 = 1/a^3 + 1/b^3 + 1/c^3​

Answers

Expanding the cube, we have

[tex]\dfrac1{(a+b+c)^3} = \left(\dfrac1{a+b+c}\right)^3 \\\\ = \dfrac1{a^3} + \dfrac1{b^3} + \dfrac1{c^3} + 3 \left(\dfrac1{a^2b} + \dfrac1{a^2c} + \dfrac1{ab^2} + \dfrac1{b^2c} + \dfrac1{ac^2} + \dfrac1{bc^2}\right) + \dfrac6{abc}[/tex]

so it remains to be shown that

[tex]3 \left(\dfrac1{a^2b} + \dfrac1{a^2c} + \dfrac1{ab^2} + \dfrac1{b^2c} + \dfrac1{ac^2} + \dfrac1{bc^2}\right) + \dfrac6{abc} = 0[/tex]

Factorize the grouped sum on the left as

[tex]\dfrac1{a^2b} + \dfrac1{a^2c} + \dfrac1{ab^2} + \dfrac1{b^2c} + \dfrac1{ac^2} + \dfrac1{bc^2} = \dfrac1{abc} \left(\dfrac ca + \dfrac ba + \dfrac cb + \dfrac ab + \dfrac bc + \dfrac ac\right)[/tex]

so that with simplification, it remains to be shown that

[tex]\dfrac ca + \dfrac ba + \dfrac cb + \dfrac ab + \dfrac bc + \dfrac ac + 2 = 0[/tex]

With a little more manipulation, we have

[tex]\dfrac ba + \dfrac ca = \dfrac{a+b+c}a - 1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac cb + \dfrac ab = \dfrac{a+b+c}b - 1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac bc + \dfrac ac = \dfrac{a+b+c}c - 1[/tex]

so that our equation simplifies to

[tex]\dfrac{a+b+c}a + \dfrac{a+b+c}b + \dfrac{a+b+c}c - 1 = 0[/tex]

which we can factorize as

[tex](a+b+c)\left(\dfrac1a+\dfrac1b+\dfrac1c\right) - 1 = 0[/tex]

Finish up by using the hypothesis:

[tex]\left(\dfrac1{\frac1{a+b+c}}\right)\left(\dfrac1a+\dfrac1b+\dfrac1c\right) - 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]\underbrace{\left(\dfrac1{\frac1a+\frac1b+\frac1c}\right)\left(\dfrac1a+\dfrac1b+\dfrac1c\right)}_{=1} - 1 = 0[/tex]

and the conclusion follows.

Answer:

ALL RED = 19/5000

Two Red = 3831/10000

No red marbles = 16/26

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the total number of marbles

7+10+9= 26

2. There are 10 red marbles so the probability that the first marble is red 10/26

3. When the second marble there are 25 marbles so the probability that it is red is 9/25

4. Third Marble probability

8/24

5. Fourth Marble probablity

(a) How many years will it take for you to double your money?

Answers

Answer:

14.20669 years

Roughly 14 years and 2.5 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is compound interest.

The formula is [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A=[/tex] Final Amount

[tex]P=[/tex] Principal Amount

[tex]r=[/tex] Interest Rate

[tex]n=[/tex] # of times interest is compounded per year

[tex]t=[/tex] Time in years

We are looking for the times in years to double the money so

[tex]2500*2=5000[/tex]

[tex]A=5000[/tex]

[tex]P=2500[/tex]

[tex]r=0.05[/tex]

[tex]n=1[/tex]

[tex]t=?[/tex]

Lets solve for [tex]t[/tex] .

Step 1.

Plug in our numbers into the compound interest formula.

[tex]5000=2500(1+\frac{0.05}{1}) ^{1*t}[/tex]

Step 2.

Simplify the equation.

Evaluate [tex]1+\frac{0.05}{1}=1.05[/tex]

Evaluate [tex]1*t=t[/tex]

[tex]5000=2500(1.05) ^{t}[/tex]

Step 3.

Divide both sides of the equation by [tex]2500[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5000}{2500}=1.05 ^{t}[/tex]

Evaluate [tex]\frac{5000}{2500}=2[/tex]

[tex]2=1.05 ^{t}[/tex]

Step 4.

Take the natural log of both sides of the equation and rewrite the right side of the eqaution using properties of exponents/logarithms.

[tex]ln(2)=t*ln(1.05)[/tex]

Step 5.

Divide both sides of the equation by [tex]ln(1.05)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{ln(2)}{ln(1.05)}=t[/tex]

Step 6.

Evaluate

[tex]t=14.20669[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Volume = L * w * h

Givens

L = 7 feet

w = 4 feet

h = 5 feet

Solution

V = L * w * h             Substitute values into the formula

V = 7 * 4 * 5

V = 140 cubic feet.

Answer

140 ft^3

Answer:

D) 140 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information is,

→ Length (l) = 7 ft

→ Breadth (b) = 4 ft

→ Height (h) = 5 ft

Formula we use,

→ Volume of cuboid = l × b × h

Let's solve the problem,

→ l × b × h

→ 7 × 4 × 5

→ [ 140 ft³ ]

Hence, the volume is 140 ft³.

For which values of the parameter "p" the equation
"8x^2 - 4x + 1 - p = 0" (with unknown x) has two different real roots less than 1?

Can you please explain in detail how this problem is solved?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac12 < p < 5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to use the discriminant.

Discriminant

[tex]b^2-4ac\quad\textsf{when}\:ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{when }\:b^2-4ac > 0 \implies \textsf{two real roots}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{when }\:b^2-4ac=0 \implies \textsf{one real root}[/tex]

[tex]\textsf{when }\:b^2-4ac < 0 \implies \textsf{no real roots}[/tex]

If the given equation has 2 real roots, then we need to use:

[tex]b^2-4ac > 0[/tex]

Given equation:  [tex]8x^2-4x+1-p=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=8, \quad b=-4, \quad c=(1-p)[/tex]

Substituting these values into [tex]b^2-4ac > 0[/tex] and solve for p:

[tex]\implies (-4)^2-4(8)(1-p) > 0[/tex]

[tex]\implies 16-32(1-p) > 0[/tex]

[tex]\implies 16-32+32p > 0[/tex]

[tex]\implies -16+32p > 0[/tex]

[tex]\implies 32p > 16[/tex]

[tex]\implies p > \dfrac{16}{32}[/tex]

[tex]\implies p > \dfrac12[/tex]

For the roots to be less than 1, first find the value of p when the root is 1.

If the root is 1, then [tex](x-1)[/tex] will be a factor, so [tex]f(1)=0[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x=1[/tex] into the given equation and solve for p:

[tex]\implies 8(1)^2-4(1)+1-p=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies 5-p=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies p=5[/tex]

Therefore, the values of p for which the given equation has two different real roots less than 1 are:

Find the area of a regular nonagon with a radius of 4

Answers

If it's a regular nonagon, each exterior angle has measure 360°/9 = 40°, so the supplementary interior angles each have measure 180° - 40° = 140°.

We can split up the nonagon into 9 congruent isosceles triangles whose longer side coincides with the radius of the circle. (The language in the question is a bit ambiguous; I think it's clearler to say the nonagon is itself circumscribed by the circle, so that each of its vertices lie on the circle. See attached image - not mine, but it's in public domain.)

As the image suggests, each triangle will have interior angles measuring 70°, 70°, and 40°.

We can use trigonometry to find the side length of the nonagon, i.e. the length of the shortest side of each triangle - I'll call it x. For example, using the law of cosines,

x² = 4² + 4² - 2 • 4 • 4 cos(40°)   ⇒   x = 4√2 √(1 - cos(40°))

Then the perimeter of the nonagon is

9x = 36√2 √(1 - cos(40°)) in ≈ 24.623 in

The area of a triangle is 1/2 the product of its base and height. The base will be b = x, but to get the height we cut the isosceles triangle in half to produce a right triangle. We use trig again to determine its height h:

tan(70°) = h/(b/2)   ⇒   h = 1/2 x tan(70°)

so each triangle contributes an area of

a = 1/2 bh = 1/4 x² tan(70°) ≈ 5.142 in²

and so the area of the nonagon is

9a = 9x²/8 tan(70°) ≈ 46.281 in²
