Answer:

No

Edit:

Yes, based on original equation. (Credit to greenpumpkin for correction)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we simply need to find the values of x that can make the equation true.  So, let's begin by isolating the "x" variable.

sqrt(2x + 13) = x + 5

[sqrt(2x + 13)]^2 = (x + 5)^2

2x + 13 = x^2 + 10x + 25

0 = x^2 + 8x + 12

Note, we can remove the sqrt method by squaring both sides of the equation.  Doing this, we see we have a quadratic equation meaning we can apply the quadratic formula to find solutions for x.

[-b +/- sqrt( b^2 - 4(a)(c) ) ] / 2a

Let a = 1, b = 8, and c = 12

[-8 +/- sqrt( (8)^2 - 4(1)(12) ) ] / 2(1)

= [-8 +/- sqrt( 64 - 48 ) ] / 2

= [-8 +/- sqrt(16) ] / 2

= [ -8 +/- 4 ] / 2

So, x = [ -8 + 4 ] / 2  and x = [-8 - 4 ] / 2

x = [-4] / 2 = -2  and x = [-12] / 2 = -6

Hence, the two values of x that can solve this quadratic equation are x = -2 and x = -6.

Therefore, we know that x = -6 is not extraneous, meaning it is a solution to our equation.

Cheers.

----------------------------------------------------

Edit:

Plugging the value of -6 back into the original equation, we get the following:

sqrt(2x + 13) = x + 5

sqrt(2(-6) + 13) = (-6) + 5

sqrt (1) = -1

1 != -1

Given that 1 cannot equal negative 1, we can say that x = -6 is an extraneous solution. (Credit to greenpumpkin for correction)

A spherical balloon is being inflated with helium at a rate of 20π cm3/min. How fast is the balloon's radius changing when the radius is 1 cm?

Answers

Answer:

5 cm/min

Step-by-step explanation:

A spherical balloon is being inflated with helium at a rate of 20π cm³/min.

The volume of a sphere is given by :

[tex]V=\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex] ...(1)

Differentiate equation (1) wrt t as follows :

[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt}=3\times \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^2\times \dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{dV}{dt}=4\pi r^2\dfrac{dr}{dt}\ ....(1)[/tex]

Put dV/dt = 20π cm³/min and r = 1 cm, we can fin dr/dt

[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt}=4\pi r^2\dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\20\pi =4\pi (1)\times \dfrac{dr}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{dr}{dt}=5\ cm/min[/tex]

So, the radius of changing at the rate of 5 cm/min.

Using implicit differentiation, it is found that the radius is changing at a rate of 5 cm/min.

The volume of a sphere of radius r is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{4\pi r^3}{3}[/tex]

Applying implicit differentiation, the rate of change is of:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

A spherical balloon is being inflated with helium at a rate of 20π cm3/min, hence [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 20\pi[/tex]The radius is of 1 cm, hence [tex]r = 1[/tex].

Then:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]20\pi = 4\pi (1)^2\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = \frac{20}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = 5[/tex]

The radius is changing at a rate of 5 cm/min.

Snow Dome Ski Resort has 75 inches of snow. It is currently snowing there at a rate of 1 inch per hour. Mt. Winterpark Ski Resort has 68 inches of snow. Currently it is snowing there at a rate of 2 inches per hour.

a) Make a table or a graph showing the amount of snow from 0 to 10 hours at each resort if the snow continues falling at this rate.

b) Indicate on your table or graph where the amount of snow will be the same at both resorts.

Answers

Answer:

a. See explanation for table

b. The 7th hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Ski Resort

[tex]Base\ Snow = 75in[/tex]

[tex]Rate = 1in[/tex] hourly

Mt. Winterpark

[tex]Base\ Snow = 68in[/tex]

[tex]Rate = 2in[/tex] hourly

First, we need to illustrate the amount of snow as an equation in both cases.

[tex]Amount = Base\ Snow + Rate * Time[/tex]

Let x be number of hours. and y be the amount of snow

So:

Ski Resort

[tex]y= 75 + 1* x[/tex]

[tex]y= 75 + x[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark

[tex]y= 68 + 2 * x[/tex]

[tex]y= 68 + 2x[/tex]

Next, we make a table to show the data.

When [tex]x = 0[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 0 = 75[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(0) = 68[/tex]

When [tex]x = 1[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 1 = 76[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(1) = 70[/tex]

When [tex]x = 2[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 2 = 77[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(2) = 72[/tex]

When [tex]x = 3[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 3 = 78[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(3) = 74[/tex]

When [tex]x = 4[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 4 = 79[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(4) = 76[/tex]

When [tex]x = 5[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 5 = 80[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(5) = 78[/tex]

When [tex]x = 6[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 6 = 81[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(6) = 80[/tex]

When [tex]x = 7[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 7 = 82[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(7) = 82[/tex]

When [tex]x = 8[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 8 = 83[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(8) = 84[/tex]

When [tex]x = 9[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 9 = 84[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(9) = 86[/tex]

When [tex]x = 10[/tex]

Ski Resort: [tex]y = 75 + 10 = 85[/tex]

Mt. Winterpark: [tex]y = 68 + 2(10) = 88[/tex]

Hence, the table is:

x ---- Ski Resort ---- Mt. Winterpark

0 --------75 ----------- 68

1 --------76 ----------- 70

2 --------77 ----------- 72

3 --------78 ----------- 74

4 --------79 ----------- 76

5 --------80 ----------- 78

6 --------81 ----------- 80

7 --------82 ----------- 82

8 --------83 ----------- 84

9 --------84 ----------- 86

10 -------85 ----------- 88

(b)

From the table, the amount of snow is the same at the 7th hour and the snow is 82 inches

HELP PLEASE!!! Math question

Answer:

(a). [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

(b). [tex]\frac{4}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a). Odds in favor of winning a new T.V. = [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

    Or probability of not winning a new T.V. = [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

    Since, Probability to win a T.V. + Probability of not winning the new T.V. = 1

    Probability of winning a new T.V. = 1 - Probability of not winning a new T.V.

                                                            = 1 - [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

                                                            = [tex]\frac{7-4}{7}[/tex]

                                                            = [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

(b). Probability of winning the match + probability of not winning the match = 1

     [tex]\frac{9}{13}[/tex] + Probability of not winning the match = 1

     Probability of not winning the match = 1 - [tex]\frac{9}{13}[/tex]

                                                                   = [tex]\frac{13-9}{13}[/tex]      

                                                                   = [tex]\frac{4}{13}[/tex]

11. In a swimming race, Yvonne swam 0.18 mile.
David swam 4 times as far as Yvonne. How far
did David swim?
(A) 2.2 miles
B
0.22 mile
C.7.2 miles
D
0.72 mile

Answers

Answer: D= 0.72

Step-by-step explanation: Because 0.18 times 4 is 0.72 miles.

Answer:

D. 0.72 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Since David swam 4 times as far is Yvonne, he swam 4 times more than 0.18.  0.18 times 4 is 0.72.  If you want/need to do it in your head, just imagine 0.18 as 18, and that multiplied by 4 is 72.  then move the decimal point back over before the 7, to get your answer.  

Two of the other choices are clearly wrong because the actual answer is way less than the other choices (except for B).  One way to quickly figure out which two (or sometimes three) are wrong is by rounding 0.18 up to 0.2.  You can try this quickly because 0.2 is barely bigger than 0.18, and 0.2 is easy to multiply by 4.  The answer you would get from multiplying 0.2 is not exactly correct, but gives you a general idea.
