Let cranberry juice = x,
3/4 + 1/10 + x = 1
x = 3/20
Ratio = cranberry : apple : orange
= 3/20 : 3/4 : 1/10
= 3 : 15 : 2 (Times everything with 20)

The surface area of a cylinder?
Answer:
18. 84 ft² or 18.85 ft² when rounded to the nearest tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
2πrh+2πr²
2× 3.14 × 1 × 2= 12.56
2 × 3.14 × 1² = 6.28
12.56 + 6.28 = 18.84
Have a great day :)
Answer:
18.85 [tex]ft^2\\[/tex]
*You should run the numbers yourself as well. Sometimes different calculators will get marginally different numbers or use a different rounding for [tex]\pi[/tex] that gives a slightly different answer*
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of a cylinder: [tex]2\pi rh+2\pi r^2[/tex]
Where h is the height and r is the radius. Remember that the radius is half the diameter, and the diameter is a straight line that passes through a circle.
I could be wrong, but I think you had the correct equation but used the diameter in stead of the radius to get 50.36.
Radius: 1 Height: 2
Plug numbers into equation:
[tex]A=2\pi (1)(2)+2\pi (1)^2= 18.8495. . .[/tex]
I hope that helps!
A 5 ounce bottle of juice cost $1.35 and an 8 ounce bottle of juice cost $2.16 a what is the unit cost per ounce of juice and b what is the better buy
Answers:
First bottle's unit cost = 27 cents per oz
Second bottle's unit cost = 27 cents per oz
Both have the same unit cost.
----------------------------------------
Work Shown:
unit cost = price/(number of ounces)
1st bottle unit cost = (1.35)/(5) = 0.27 dollars per oz = 27 cents per oz
2nd bottle unit cost = (2.16)/(8) = 0.27 dollars per oz = 27 cents per oz
Both lead to the same unit cost. Therefore, you can pick either option and it doesn't matter.

To calculate the volume of a chemical produced in a day a chemical manufacturing company uses the following formula below:
[tex]V(x)=[C_1(x)+C_2(x)](H(x))[/tex]
where represents the number of units produced. This means two chemicals are added together to make a new chemical and the resulting chemical is multiplied by the expression for the holding container with respect to the number of units produced. The equations for the two chemicals added together with respect to the number of unit produced are given below:
[tex]C_1(x)=\frac{x}{x+1} , C_2(x)=\frac{2}{x-3}[/tex]
The equation for the holding container with respect to the number of unit produced is given below:
[tex]H(x)=\frac{x^3-9x}{x}[/tex]
a. What rational expression do you get when you combine the two chemicals?
b. What is the simplified equation of ?
c. What would the volume be if 50, 100, or 1000 units are produced in a day?
d. The company needs a volume of 3000 How many units would need to be produced in a day?
Answer:
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x-3}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]
[tex]V(50) = 2548.17[/tex] [tex]V(100) = 10098.10[/tex] [tex]V(1000) = 999201.78[/tex]
[tex]x = 54.78[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]V(x) = [C_1(x) + C_2(x)](H(x))[/tex]
[tex]C_1(x) = \frac{x}{x+1}[/tex]
[tex]C_1(x) = \frac{2}{x-3}[/tex]
[tex]H(x) = \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
Solving (a): Expression for V(x)
We have:
[tex]V(x) = [C_1(x) + C_2(x)](H(x))[/tex]
Substitute known values
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x-3}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
Solving (b): Simplify V(x)
We have:
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x}{x + 1} + \frac{2}{x-3}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
Solve the expression in bracket
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x*(x-3) + 2*(x+1)}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-3x + 2x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x^3 - 9x}{x}[/tex]
Factor out x
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * \frac{x(x^2 - 9)}{x}[/tex]
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * (x^2 - 9)[/tex]
Express as difference of two squares
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)(x -3)}] * (x- 3)(x + 3)[/tex]
Cancel out x - 3
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{x^2-x+2}{(x + 1)}] *(x + 3)[/tex]
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]
Solving (c): V(50), V(100), V(1000)
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]
Substitute 50 for x
[tex]V(50) = [\frac{(50^2-50+2)(50 + 3)}{(50 + 1)}][/tex]
[tex]V(50) = \frac{(2452)(53)}{(51)}][/tex]
[tex]V(50) = 2548.17[/tex]
Substitute 100 for x
[tex]V(100) = [\frac{(100^2-100+2)(100 + 3)}{(100 + 1)}][/tex]
[tex]V(100) = \frac{9902)(103)}{(101)}[/tex]
[tex]V(100) = 10098.10[/tex]
Substitute 1000 for x
[tex]V(1000) = [\frac{(1000^2-1000+2)(1000 + 3)}{(1000 + 1)}][/tex]
[tex]V(1000) = [\frac{(999002)(10003)}{(10001)}][/tex]
[tex]V(1000) = 999201.78[/tex]
Solving (d): V(x) = 3000, find x
[tex]V(x) = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]
[tex]3000 = [\frac{(x^2-x+2)(x + 3)}{(x + 1)}][/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]3000(x + 1) = (x^2-x+2)(x + 3)[/tex]
Equate to 0
[tex](x^2-x+2)(x + 3)-3000(x + 1)=0[/tex]
Open brackets
[tex]x^3 - x^2 + 2x + 3x^2 - 3x + 6 - 3000x - 3000 = 0[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x^3 + 3x^2- x^2 + 2x - 3x - 3000x + 6 - 3000 = 0[/tex]
[tex]x^3 + x^2 -3001x -2994 = 0[/tex]
Solve using graphs (see attachment)
[tex]x = -54.783[/tex] or
[tex]x = -0.998[/tex] or

What is the approximate length of arc s on the circle below? Use 3.14 for Pi. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
-5.8 ft
-6.3 ft
-27.5 ft
-69.1 ft
9514 1404 393
Answer:
69.1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The diameter of the circle is 24 ft. The length of the arc is more than twice the diameter, so cannot be less than about 50 ft. The only reasonable choice is ...
69.1 ft
__
The circumference of the circle is ...
C = 2πr = 2(3.14)(12 ft) = 75.36 ft
The arc length of interest is 330° of the 360° circle, so is 330/360 = 11/12 times the circumference.
s = (11/12)(75.36 ft) = 69.08 ft ≈ 69.1 ft

Suppose scores on exams in statistics are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and a population standard deviation of three points. A random sample of 36 scores is taken and gives a sample mean of 68. Find a 85 % confidence interval estimate for the population mean exam score. Explain what the confidence interval means
this the answer of queastions
Step-by-step explanation:
67.18,68.82
Let mu be the true population mean of statistics exam scores. We have a large random samples of n=36 scores with a sample mean of 68.we know that the population standard deviation is sigma=3.A pivotal quantity is 3^sqrt(36)=(3/6)=68(1/2) which is approximately normally distributed. Therefore the 85%confidence interval is 68-(1/2)(1.6449), 68+(1/2)(1.6449) i.e (67.18,68.82)

(x1,y1)(x2,y2)Slope formula[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
What the Slope Means A positive slope means that two variables are positively related—that is, when x increases, so does y, and when x decreases, y also decreases. Graphically, a positive slope means that as a line on the line graph moves from left to right, the line rises.
If a teacher's guide to a popular SAT workbook is to be printed using a special type of paper, the guide must have at most 400 pages. If the publishing company charges 1 cent per page printed, what is the largest price, in dollars, that can be charged to print 20 copies of the workbook using the special paper?
Answer:
$80
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the largest price, assume that all 20 copies of the workbook will have 400 pages.
Since the company charges 1 cent per page, this means each workbook will cost 400 cents. This is equivalent to 4 dollars.
Find the total cost by multiplying this by 20:
20(4)
= 80
So, the largest price to print 20 copies is $80
Because the P-value is ____ than the significance level 0.05, there ____ sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between lemon imports and crash fatality rates for a significance level of α= 0.05.
Do the results suggest that imported lemons cause carfatalities?
a. The results suggest that an increase in imported lemons causes car fatality rates to remain the same.
b. The results do not suggest any cause-effect relationship between the two variables.
c. The results suggest that imported lemons cause car fatalities.
d. The results suggest that an increase in imported lemons causes in an increase in car fatality rates.
Answer:
H0 : correlation is equal to 0
H1 : correlation is not equal to 0 ;
Pvalue < α ;
There is sufficient evidence
r = 0.945 ;
Pvalue = 0.01524
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data :
Lemon_Imports_(x) Crash_Fatality_Rate_(y)
230 15.8
264 15.6
359 15.5
482 15.3
531 14.9
Using technology :
The regression equation obtained is :
y = 16.3363-0.002455X
Where, slope = - 0.002455 ; Intercept = 16.3363
The Correlation Coefficient, r = 0.945
H0 : correlation is equal to 0
H1 : correlation is not equal to 0 ;
The test statistic, T:
T = r / √(1 - r²) / (n - 2)
n = 5 ;
T = 0.945 / √(1 - 0.945²) / (5 - 2)
T = 0.945 / 0.1888341
T = 5.00439
The Pvalue = 0.01524
Since Pvalue < α ; Reject the Null and conclude that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim.

Substitute y(x)= Σ 2 anx^n and the Maclaurin series for 6 sin3x into y' - 2xy = 6 sin 3x and equate the coefficients of like powers of x on both sides of the equation to n= 0. Find the first four nonzero terms in a power series expansion about x = 0 of a general
n=0
solution to the differential equation.
У(Ñ)= ___________
Recall that
[tex]\sin(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty(-1)^n\frac{x^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}[/tex]
Differentiating the power series series for y(x) gives the series for y'(x) :
[tex]y(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n \implies y'(x)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty na_nx^{n-1}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)a_{n+1}x^n[/tex]
Now, replace everything in the DE with the corresponding power series:
[tex]y'-2xy = 6\sin(3x) \implies[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+1)a_{n+1}x^n - 2\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^{n+1} = 6\sum_{n=0}^\infty(-1)^n\frac{(3x)^{2n+1}}{(2n+1)!}[/tex]
The series on the right side has no even-degree terms, so if we split up the even- and odd-indexed terms on the left side, the even-indexed [tex](n=2k)[/tex] series should vanish and only the odd-indexed [tex](n=2k+1)[/tex] terms would remain.
Split up both series on the left into even- and odd-indexed series:
[tex]y'(x) = \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty (2k+1)a_{2k+1}x^{2k} + \sum_{k=0}^\infty (2k+2)a_{2k+2}x^{2k+1}[/tex]
[tex]-2xy(x) = \displaystyle -2\left(\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{2k}x^{2k+1} + \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{2k+1}x^{2k+2}\right)[/tex]
Next, we want to condense the even and odd series:
• Even:
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty (2k+1)a_{2k+1}x^{2k} - 2 \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{2k+1}x^{2k+2}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty (2k+1)a_{2k+1}x^{2k} - 2 \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{2k+1}x^{2(k+1)}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle a_1 + \sum_{k=1}^\infty (2k+1)a_{2k+1}x^{2k} - 2 \sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{2k+1}x^{2(k+1)}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle a_1 + \sum_{k=1}^\infty (2k+1)a_{2k+1}x^{2k} - 2 \sum_{k=1}^\infty a_{2(k-1)+1}x^{2k}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle a_1 + \sum_{k=1}^\infty (2k+1)a_{2k+1}x^{2k} - 2 \sum_{k=1}^\infty a_{2k-1}x^{2k}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle a_1 + \sum_{k=1}^\infty \bigg((2k+1)a_{2k+1} - 2a_{2k-1}\bigg)x^{2k}[/tex]
• Odd:
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty 2(k+1)a_{2(k+1)}x^{2k+1} - 2\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{2k}x^{2k+1}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty \bigg(2(k+1)a_{2(k+1)}-2a_{2k}\bigg)x^{2k+1}[/tex]
[tex]=\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty \bigg(2(k+1)a_{2k+2}-2a_{2k}\bigg)x^{2k+1}[/tex]
Notice that the right side of the DE is odd, so there is no 0-degree term, i.e. no constant term, so it follows that [tex]a_1=0[/tex].
The even series vanishes, so that
[tex](2k+1)a_{2k+1} - 2a_{2k-1} = 0[/tex]
for all integers k ≥ 1. But since [tex]a_1=0[/tex], we find
[tex]k=1 \implies 3a_3 - 2a_1 = 0 \implies a_3 = 0[/tex]
[tex]k=2 \implies 5a_5 - 2a_3 = 0 \implies a_5 = 0[/tex]
and so on, which means the odd-indexed coefficients all vanish, [tex]a_{2k+1}=0[/tex].
This leaves us with the odd series,
[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty \bigg(2(k+1)a_{2k+2}-2a_{2k}\bigg)x^{2k+1} = 6\sum_{k=0}^\infty (-1)^k \frac{x^{2k+1}}{(2k+1)!}[/tex]
[tex]\implies 2(k+1)a_{2k+2} - 2a_{2k} = \dfrac{6(-1)^k}{(2k+1)!}[/tex]
We have
[tex]k=0 \implies 2a_2 - 2a_0 = 6[/tex]
[tex]k=1 \implies 4a_4-2a_2 = -1[/tex]
[tex]k=2 \implies 6a_6-2a_4 = \dfrac1{20}[/tex]
[tex]k=3 \implies 8a_8-2a_6 = -\dfrac1{840}[/tex]
So long as you're given an initial condition [tex]y(0)\neq0[/tex] (which corresponds to [tex]a_0[/tex]), you will have a non-zero series solution. Let [tex]a=a_0[/tex] with [tex]a_0\neq0[/tex]. Then
[tex]2a_2-2a_0=6 \implies a_2 = a+3[/tex]
[tex]4a_4-2a_2=-1 \implies a_4 = \dfrac{2a+5}4[/tex]
[tex]6a_6-2a_4=\dfrac1{20} \implies a_6 = \dfrac{20a+51}{120}[/tex]
and so the first four terms of series solution to the DE would be
[tex]\boxed{a + (a+3)x^2 + \dfrac{2a+5}4x^4 + \dfrac{20a+51}{120}x^6}[/tex]
If 1100 square centimeters of material is available to make a box with a square base and an open top, find the largest possible volume of the box. Round to two decimal places if necessary.

4ah=1100-a^2
h=1100/4a -1/4 a now put that expression in volume equation for h.
YOu now have a volume expression as function of a.
take the derivative, set to zero, solve for a. Then put that value back into the volume equation, solve for Volume.

Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Marilyn and her sister are each getting a ticket that cost $10.95. They are also getting a $7.50 popcorn to share. Let's add those values up.
(10.95 * 2) + 7.50 {Multiply 10.95 by 2 to get 21.90.}
21.90 + 7.50 {Add 7.50 to 21.90 to get 29.40}
$29.40 (without the credit) in toal
A credit on a movie reward card functions as a discount, so what we need to do next is subtract 4 from 29.40. That will get us $25.40 as the total cost.
After doing the math, I can deduce that your answer is correct!
I'm interval notation please

Answer:
(-2, 4]
Step-by-step explanation:
-21 ≤ -6x +3 < 15 . . . . given
-24 ≤ -6x < 12 . . . . . . subtract 3
4 ≥ x > -2 . . . . . . . . . . divide by -6
In interval notation, the solution is (-2, 4].

Interval notation uses a square bracket to indicate the "or equal to" case--where the end point is included in the interval. A graph uses a solid dot for the same purpose. When the interval does not include the end point, a round bracket (parenthesis) or an open dot are used.
