Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level.

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72
Which statement is true about Pieter’s solution?

It cannot be a fraction or decimal because the depth of the well is a whole number.
It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.
It must be a negative number because the depth is below sea level.
It cannot be greater than –72 because that is the depth of the well.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is B or It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.

Answers

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve for y:-

x - y^4 = 1

y^4 = x - 1

y = +/- (x - 1)^(1/4)

This is a one-to-many relation . For a given value of y there  2 values of x.

So this is NOT a function.

subtract both sides by 3x:

[tex]\sf -2y=-16-3x[/tex]

[tex]\sf 4)x-3y=6[/tex]

Add 3y from both sides:

[tex]\sf x-3y+3y=6+3y[/tex]

Subtract 6 from both sides:

[tex]\sf x-6=3y[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3:

[tex]\sf 6) 4x-y=1[/tex]

Subtract 4x from both sides:

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (−8,−1) and (−6,−2)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

m = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that slope = (change in y) / (change in x).

Going from  (−8,−1) to (−6,−2), x increases by 2 (because -6 - (-8) = 2), and

y decreases by 1.  Thus, the slope here is

m = (change in y) / (change in x) = (-1) / 2 = -1 / 2

m = -1/2

Find the equation of the line that goes

What is linear inequality?

Linear inequality refers to the relation between a linear algebraic expression to some known value that contains inequality sign.

Unlike a linear equation it can have a range of values inside an interval.

The given statement can be written in terms of inequality as,

2/3x - 6 ≥ -24

=> 2/3x  ≥ -24 + 6

=> 2/3x  ≥ -18

=> x ≥ -27

Hence, the inequality expression for the given problem can be written as x ≥ -27.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point (0, b) where the graph of the linear equation crosses the y-axis. The y-intercept is also the value of y when x = 0. Looking at your graph, it shows that the line crosses at point (0, -2).

Jada has a scale map of Kansas that fits on a page in her book. The page is 5 inches by 8 inches. Kansas is about 210 miles by 410 miles. Select all scales that could be a scale on the map. (There are 2.54 centimeters in an inch.) A. 1 in to 1 my B. 1 cm to 1 km C. 1 in to 10 mi D. 1 ft to 100 mi E. 1 cm to 200 km F. 1 in to 100 mi G. 1 cm to 1000 km

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

5 inches on the map correspond to 210 miles (or even a bit more) in reality.

we do know, the real length of the state is 213 miles.

and 8 inches to 410 (or a bit more) miles.

but, in fact, in reality, Kansas is indeed 410 miles long.

so, let's see first about the consistency of the scale factors (our ratios) in every direction.

5 inches / 210 miles = 1/42

8 inches / 410 miles = 4/205 = 1/51.25

so, in order to be a true map, both directions must have the same scale factor.

to fit the whole map on one page we must go with the smaller scale ratio : 1/51.25

so,

A with the ratio 1/1 is wrong.

B wrong.

1 cm = 1/2.54 inches

1 km = 1/1.6 miles

so, the scale ratio here is

1 cm / 1km = 1/2.54 / 1/1.6 = 1.6 / 2.54

still far off of the 1/51.25 ratio.

C with the ratio 1/10 is wrong.

D wrong

1 ft = 12 inches

the ratio is therefore

12/100 = 3/25 = 1/8.3333

still far off of the 1/51.25 ratio.

E would fit

1 cm = 1/2.54 inches

1 km = 1/1.6 miles

200 km = 200/1.6

so, the scale ratio here is

1 cm / 200km = 1/2.54 / 200/1.6 = 1.6 / (2.54×200) =

= 1.6 / 508

still far off of the 1/51.25 ratio, but in the form of being much smaller. so it fits on the page.

F would fit.

the ratio is 1/100.

this is again far off of the 1/51.25 ratio, but also in the form of being much smaller, so it fits on the page.

G would fit.

1 cm = 1/2.54 inches

1 km = 1/1.6 miles

1000 km = 1000/1.6

so, the scale ratio here is

1 cm / 1000km = 1/2.54 / 1000/1.6 = 1.6 / (2.54×1000) =

= 1.6 / 2540

again far off of the 1/51.25 ratio, but also in the form of being much smaller. so it fits on the page.
