Seven more than three times a number is thirty-one. Write an equation
and solve for the unknown number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

As an equation, (we'll use x as the variable), that word problem is 3x+7=31.

To solve we'd subtract 7 from both sides to isolate 3x, which gives us 3x=24. Now, to isolate x(unknown number) we would divide both sides by 3. When you divide both sides by 3, you'd get x=8.

find all values of theta if theta is in the interval [0degrees,360degrees) and has the given function value

sec theta= -2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\theta = 120, 240[/tex], in degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The secant of an angle is given by:

[tex]\sec{\theta} = \frac{1}{\cos{\theta}}[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]\sec{\theta} = -2[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{1}{\cos{\theta}} = -2[/tex]

[tex]-2\cos{\theta} = 1[/tex]

[tex]\cos{\theta} = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

In the first quadrant, the angle that has cosine of 1/2 is 60º.

The cosine is negative in the second and in the third quadrant.

The equivalent angle to 60º in the second quadrant is of 180º - 60º = 120º.

The equivalent angle to 60º in the third quadrant is of 180º + 60º = 240º

So the values of [tex]\theta[/tex] in the interval are:

[tex]\theta = 120, 240[/tex], in degrees

Keiko's Coffee Shop makes a blend that is a mixture of two types of coffee. Type A coffee cost Keiko $4.15 per pound, and type B coffee costs $5.25 per pound. This month's blend used four times as many pounds of type B coffee as type A, for a total cost of $980.85. How many pounds of type A coffee were used?

Answers

Answer:

39 pounds of type A coffee were used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost of type A coffee is $4.15 per pound and cost of type B coffee is $5.25 per pound. Also, blend used four times as many pounds of type B coffee as type A.

To find: How many pounds of type A coffee were used.

Let [tex]x[/tex] be the number of pounds of type A coffee and [tex]y[/tex] be the number of pounds of type B coffee.

Then, according to question,

[tex]4.15x+5.25y=980.85[/tex] and [tex]y=4x[/tex]

Substituting [tex]y=4x[/tex] in [tex]4.15x+5.25y=980.85[/tex], we get

[tex]4.15x+5.25(4x)=980.85[/tex]

⇒[tex]4.15x+21x=980.85[/tex]

⇒[tex]25.15x=980.85[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=\frac{980.85}{25.15}[/tex]

⇒[tex]x=39[/tex]

Therefore, 39 pounds of type A coffee were used.

A hyperbola is defined as the flat open curve resulting from the intersection of a right circular cone from a plane not parallel to any of its origins. The line joining the foci of the hyperbola is called the base line.

The perpendicular to the middle of the baseline is called the center line. It becomes apparent that all points of the center line are equidistant from the foci.

What is the slope-intercept equation for the following line? I need help answering​

Answers

Answer:

y = -4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The b in the slope-intercept equation represents the y-intercept.

The line crosses the y-axis at (0,-3). Therefore, b = -3.

Since the line is decreasing from left to right, the slope will be negative.

From (0,-3) to the next point on the line is down 4 units and to the right 1 unit.

The slope will be -4/1 or -4.

Therefore, the equation of the line will be y = -4x - 3.

A drag racer has two parachutes, a main and a backup, that are designed to bring the vehicle to a stop (combined with the brakes) after the end of a run. Suppose that the main chute deploys with probability 0 . 95, and that if the main fails to deploy, the backup deploys with probability 0.999.

Required:
a. What is the probability that one of the two parachutes deploys?
b. What is the probability that the backup parachutes deploys?

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.99995 = 99.995% probability that one of the two parachutes deploys

b.0.04995 = 4.995% probability that the backup parachutes deploys

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the probability that one of the two parachutes deploys?

Either the first deploys(with probability 95%), or the first does not deploy(probability 5%) and the second does(probability 99.9%). So

[tex]p = 0.95 + 0.05*0.999 = 0.99995[/tex]

0.99995 = 99.995% probability that one of the two parachutes deploys

b. What is the probability that the backup parachutes deploys?

The first does not deploy(probability 5%) and the second does(probability 99.9%). So

[tex]p = 0.05*0.999 = 0.04995[/tex]

0.04995 = 4.995% probability that the backup parachutes deploys

Step-by-step explanation:

Add like terms

2x+2x and

2-17

4x-15=180

Now subtract -15 to both sides get x by itself

4x-15+15=180+15

4x=195

Now divide by four to each side to get x by itself again

4x/4 = 195/4

x=48.75

Answer:

x=48.75

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2+2x-17=180(Group like terms)

2x+2x+2-17=180

4x-15=180(Add 15 on both sides)

4x-15+15=180+15

4x=195(Divide both sides by 4 to find the value of x)

Hello!

[tex]\large\boxed{\frac{\pi }{4} < x < \frac{5\pi }{4}}[/tex]

To begin, we can solve the inequality:

sin(x) > cos(x)

Divide both sides by cos(x):

sin(x) / cos(x) > 1

tan(x) > 1

x > π/4

However, we can also solve it the other way to produce the end to the interval:

sin(x) > cos(x)

1 > cot(x)

x < 5π/4

Therefore, sin(x) > cos(x) on the interval π/4 < x < 5π/4.

Answer:

π/4 < x < 5π/4.

Find the values of x and y.

Answers

Answer:

x = 20 (degrees)

y = 70 (degrees)

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle adjacent to the one labeled 40° is supplementary, so it would measure 140°. And the obtuse triangle is an isosceles, which means that x is half of 180° - 140°, so x = 1/2(40°) = 20°

To find y, subtract 90° and x from 180°

y = 180° - 90° - 20°

y = 70°

Answer:

x = 20 and y = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 20 and y = 70
