The product of two positive numbers is 9. The reciprocal of one of these numbers is 4 times the reciprocal of the other number. What is the sum of the two numbers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7 and 1 / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

xy = 9

( 1 / x ) = 4 ( 1 / y )

y = 4x

x ( 4x ) = 9

4x^2 = 9

x = 3 / 2

( 3 / 2 ) y = 9

y = 6

6 + ( 3 / 2 ) = 7 and 1 / 2

Answer 2

The two numbers are 3/2 and 6.

What are reciprocal numbers?

The reciprocal of a number is this fraction flipped upside down.

Given that, The product of two positive numbers is 9. The reciprocal of one of these numbers is 4 times the reciprocal of the other number.

Let the numbers be a and b.

ab = 9.......(i)

1/a = 4/b

a = 4b..........(ii)

Using (i) in (ii)

4b×b = 9

b² = 9/4

b = 3/2

a×3/2 = 9

a = 6

Hence, The two numbers are 3/2 and 6.

Julissa is printing out copies for a work training. It takes 4 minutes to print a color copy, and it takes 2 minutes to print a grayscale copy. She needs to print no fewer than 8 copies within 25 minutes.

Which system of inequalities represents the number of color copies, x, and grayscale copies, y, that Julissa can print to meet her goal?

Answers

Answer:

4x  + 2y  ≤  25   ,      x + y ≥  8     is the required system of inequalities to represent the given situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, let  the number of color copies =  x

Now, the time taken to print each color copy = 4 minutes

⇒Time taken to print x color copies = x times ( Time taken by each copy)

= 4 (x)   = 4x

and let  the number gray scale copies =  y

The time taken to print each gray scale copy = 2 minutes

⇒Time taken to print y gray scale copy = y times (Time taken by each copy)

= 2 (y)   = 2y

Total copies printed = x + y

Maximum time taken to print x  color copies and y grayscale copies

= 4x  + 2y

So, according to the question:

4x  + 2y  ≤  25 ( as maximum allotted time is 25 minutes)

and x + y ≥  8      (as minimum number of copies is 8)

hence, the above system is the required system of inequalities to represent the given situation.

Answers

Circle F 20
Hope this helps :))

Option B is correct, the circle with center F and diameter 20 units is the circle which has a radius of 10 units.

What is Circle?

A circle is a shape consisting of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a given point, the centre.

Radius of a circle is the distance from the center of the circle to any point on it's circumference.

The distance across a circle through the centre is called the diameter.

Diameter = 2 × radius

In the given figures, option B has a diameter of 20

so radius = diameter /2

=20/2

=10 units

Hence, option B is correct, the circle with center F and diameter 20 units is the circle which has a radius of 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Someone please solve and explain part a(i)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the way I understand the description :

C is below B. they are on a kind of straight hill, and there is a straight "road" going up from C to B.

then, at B there is an antenna or other firm of mast going straight up.

therefore, this is not a right-angled triangle with 90 degrees at B (as it would be, if this would be in a flat plane).

but because it goes downhill from B to C the angle is 105 degree.

(a)(i)

now, imagine, there would be a horizontal plane either at B or at C. AB would have a true 90 degree angle with this plane. so, what is the angle of CB with this plane ?

this angle is the "excess" of the 90 degrees, as CB angles down from the horizontal plane at B, or angles up with the same angle from the horizontal plane at C.

what is the "excess" of 105 degrees vs. the standard 90 degrees ? 105 - 90 = 15 degrees.

(a)(ii)

the extended Pythagoras for not right-angled triangles :

c² = a² + b² - 2ab×cos(B)

B being the angle opposite of the Hypotenuse c.

so, we have

c² = 15² + 10² -2×15×10×cos(105) = 225 + 100 - 300×cos(105) =

= 325 - 300×cos(105) = 402.6457135...

What is the equation of this graphed line?



Enter your answer in slope-intercept form in the box.

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

The general slope-intercept equation of a line is y=mx+b , where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept ( where the line intersects the y-axis)

From the graph we see that

m= difference in y/difference in x = (6 - -6)/ (2- -4) = 12/6 = 2

m=2 is the slope

b is where the line cuts the y-axis and is at 2

b=2 is the y-intercept

Substitute m and b in the general equation to find the equation of the graphed line.

y = 2x +2

y∝1/√x If y=5
when x=36 find,
x when y=3

Answers

Answer:

x = 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∝ 1/√x

y = k /√x    where k is a constant.

When x = 36 y = 5 so we have:

5 = k / √36

5 = k / 6

k = 30

So we have the relation:

y = 30 /√x

When y = 3

3 = 30/ √x

√x = 30/3 = 10

x= 100.

A vertical parabola has its vertex in the second quadrant and y=ax2+bx is the equation of this parabola. Sketch the line that has equation y=ax+b.

Answers

The vertex of a parabola is the minimum or the maximum point of the parabola.

See attachment for the equation of [tex]\mathbf{y = 2x + 1}[/tex]

The equation of the parabola is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{y = ax^2 + bx}[/tex]

For the vertex of the parabola to be in the second quadrant, then the following must be true:

a > 0 and b > 0

Take for instance:

a = 2, and b = 1

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{y = 2x^2 + 1x}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\mathbf{y = 2x^2 + x}[/tex]

Factor out x

[tex]\mathbf{y = x(2x + 1)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{y = 2x + 1}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

2n + 14 = 30

n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

When the question says twice a number n, that means 2 * n = 2n.

Then when it says the sum of 2n and 14, that means 2n + 14.

Then they said that the sum of 2n + 14 = 30

If you want to find the value of n, subtract 14 from both sides:

2n = 16

Then divide by 2 on both sides:

n = 8
