To make some additional money, Vanessa began to
walk her sister's dog in order to help the dog lose
weight. Each week, the dog lost 0.2 pounds of weight
from walking with Vanessa. If the dog's starting weight
was 40 pounds, find the number of weeks that it will
take for the dog to weigh 38 pounds.


write an equation and isolate the variable.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial weight: 40

1 week =  0.2 lbs lost

40 - 38 = 2 lbs lost (goal)

x = number of weeks

0.2*x = 2

0.2x = 2

x = 10

Answer:

Slope of the parrelel line: -2/3x

Slope of the perpendicular line: 3/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first put this into slope intercept form:

y = mx + b

9y = -6x - 1

y = -2/3x = 1/9

So our slope is -2/3x

If we have a line parrelel to this, it means it has the exact same slope, but a different b value.

So the slope of this parellel line would also be -2/3x

Next we need to find the slope of the perpendicular line.

This is the exact opposite of our slope.

To find this, lets first understand our slope.

Our slope is the change in y over the change in x:

Δy/Δx

A perpendicular line is going to be the flipped, and negative of this.

You can think of a perpendicular line being:

-Δx/Δy

Since our slope is -2/3x

Our perpendicular line would be 3/2x

So our answer for the second question is 3/2x

Useful things to remember:

Slope of a line: Δy/ΔxSlope of a parrelel line: Δy/ΔxSlope of a perpendicular line: -Δx/Δy

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ EAB = ∠ AED = 4x ( alternate angles )

∠ AEB and ∠  GEB are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180° , so

∠ AEB + 125° = 180° ( subtract 125° from both sides )

∠ AEB = 55°

The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the 2 opposite interior angles.

∠ EBC is an exterior angle of the triangle , then

∠ EBC = ∠ AEB + ∠EAB , that is

9x = 55 + 4x ( subtract 4x from both sides )

5x = 55 ( divide both sides by 5 )

Answer: The filled out chart is shown below.

===========================================================

Explanation:

For each row, we divide the number of locations over the population count. Treat the population values in millions. Something like 35.2 million means 35,200,000 which is the same as writing 35.2*10^6 when using scientific notation. I prefer to stick to scientific notation.

In the first row, they computed 1460/(35.2*10^6) = 0.0000415 = 4.15*10^(-5); the last entry of 4.15 for this row represents having 4.15 stores for 100,000 people. In other words, we chop off the 10^(-5) portion in 4.15*10^(-5). This is because the 10^(-5) portion represents "1 out of 100,000".

The other remaining rows are handled the same way. I'll show the steps for the second row

per capita as a decimal = 6530/(325.7*10^6) = 0.00002per capita as sci notation = 2 * 10^(-5)Starbucks per 100,000 = 2

Like the previous row, each value is approximate.

Answer:

The maximum value of g(x) is 3 greater than the maximum value of f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic Function: Definitions:

The function modeled by the equation, f(x) = - (x - 3)² + 9, represents a quadratic function in vertex form.  

The vertex form is given by: f(x) = a(x - h)² + k, where:

The value of a is the vertical compression or stretch factor, which essentially determines the width of a parabola. The value of a also determines where the graph of a parabola opens:

a > 1: graph opens up; a < 1, graph opens down.

⇒ (h, k) = Vertex of the parabola.

Given these definitions, we can assume the following information regarding  the quadratic function,  f(x) = - (x - 3)² + 9:

The vertex occurs at point, (3, 9).The graph opens down because a = -1. Therefore, the vertex is the maximum point of the graph.

Absolute Value Function: Definitions:

The vertex form of an absolute value function is given by: g(x) = a|x - h| + k, where:  

The value of a determines the following:

|a| > 1 represents the vertical stretch of the graph. 0 < |a| < 1  represents the vertical compression or shrink of the graph. a < 0 represents the reflection across the x-axis.

⇒ (h, k) = Vertex of the absolute value function.

x = h represents the axis of symmetry.

The axis of symmetry is the imaginary point on the graph that intersects through the h-coordinate of the vertex, thereby dividing the graph into two symmetrical parts.

Observing the given table of values, especially how the y-values increasingly peak towards g(x) = 12, then decreases back down starting at g(x) = 8.  It is important to take notice of the y-values, as it represents the resulting output provided by the given input (x-value).  

The increasing, followed by the decreasing y-values imply that the graph must be facing downward. Since we specified that the maximum point provided by g(x) = 12, then it means that it is the vertex occurs at point, (1, 12).

Compare the vertices of f(x) and g(x):The vertex of the quadratic function, f(x) = (3, 9). The vertex of the absolute value function, g(x) = (1, 12). The basis of comparing the minimum or maximum value of a graph is the output, or the y-value.   The difference between the maximum values of g(x) and f(x) = 3.      

Therefore, the maximum value of g(x) is 3 greater than the maximum value of f(x).

Rehan proved by mathematical Induction that for all the positive Integers, n^3+ 2n is divisible by 3. Can you find an integer counterexample to show that this statement is not true? Explain.

Answers

Reproduce the proof. When n = 1, we have

n³ + 2n = 1³ + 2 = 3

which is clearly divisible by 3.

Assume n³ + 2n is divisible by 3. Then for the next natural number n + 1, we have

(n + 1)³ + 2 (n + 1) = n³ + 3n² + 3n + 1 + 2n + 2

= n³ + 2n + 3 (n² + n + 1)

The first two terms n³ + 2n are divisible by 3 according to our assumption, and 3 (n² + n + 1) is clearly a multiple of, and therefore divisible by, 3 as well.

So the claim that 3 divides n³ + 2n is true for all natural numbers n.

Determine if the leading coefficient of the following function is positive or negative and whether the function has a minimum or maximum vertex point.

Answers

Answer:

The leading coefficient of the function shown is negative and the function shown has a maximum vertex point.

Step-by-step explanation:

The leading coefficient is the term with the highest degree in a polynomial.

For example in 4x² + 3x + 1 the leading coefficient would be 4x² as 4x² is the term with the highest degree.

The leading coefficient tells us whether the equation, when graphed, will rise or fall.

If the leading coefficient is negative then the equation will fall when graphed, in contrast if the leading coefficient is positive the equation will rise when graphed.

Looking at the graph, it appears that the equation is falling, meaning that the leading coefficient must be negative.

If the equation falls then it has a maximum point, if it rises then it has a minimum point.

Because the equation shown falls it will have a maximum point.

In the 1800s, the United States was still a very young nation, trying to solidify its identity. The Industrial Revolution began in Great Britain, a fast development of society following the introduction of machines. The United States was slower than Great Britain to fully embrace the changes. Yet key technological developments caused a rapid growth in American urban areas.Better farming methods and tools in the 1800s increased food production. Americans were able to grow enough food for their families as well as to sell. The abundance caused food prices to fall.The expansion of cotton and the growth of textile factories in northern states helped produce the first wave of American industry. More people turned to work in northern factories as a way to support their families. Thousands of immigrants to the United States also settled in or near port cities, looking for work. Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas.As a result, cities grew in numbers of people and physical space. As more people and businesses moved in, they needed buildings for living and working. They needed ways to move around the city. We call this process urbanization.In 1820, the United States had only a few cities of 10,000 residents or more. About seven percent of U.S. residents lived in urban areas. The number of cities with more than 10,000 people grew quickly over the next 40 years, especially in the Northeast and Midwest. By 1860, about 20 percent lived in cities. Philadelphia and New York City were the most populated cities in 1860 and would soon reach one million residents.The urbanization of the United States quickened due to technology improvements. Without innovations in food production, the factories could not have grown so quickly. The trend quickened after 1860 and continued throughout the 21st century as well. By 2007, more Americans lived in or near cities than they did in rural areas.Select a sentence from the body of this article that can be removed without affecting the author's explanation.
