Perform the operation and show that it results in another rational expression.

p(x) - q(x)

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The functions are:

[tex]p(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

To find:

The rational expression for [tex]p(x)-q(x)[/tex].

Solution:

We have,

[tex]p(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}-\dfrac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{(x-1)-(x+1)}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{x-1-x-1}{x^2-1^2}[/tex]             [tex][\because a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)][/tex]

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{-2}{x^2-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the required rational expression for [tex]p(x)-q(x)[/tex] is [tex]\dfrac{-2}{x^2-1}[/tex].

Water is flowing into a tank at a rate of 20 cm3/min. At the start, there is 250 cm3 of water in the tank.
(i) How much water will be in the tank after 30 minutes?
(ii) Find the time when there is 1210 cm3 of water in the tank.

Answers

Answer:

i) 410 cm³

ii) 48 min

Step-by-step explanation:

we start with 250 cm³.

and then we fill in 20 cm³ per minute.

i)

after 30 minutes we have

250 + 8×20 = 250 + 160 = 410 cm³

ii)

how long (how many minutes) does it take to reach 1210 cm³ in the tank ?

well, first we subtract the start amount (250).

and then we see how often 20 cm³ will "fit" into the remainder. and then we know how many minutes the water has to run.

1210 - 250 = 960 cm³

so, the incoming water needs to reach 960 cm³ to have a total of 1210 cm³.

and

960 cm³ / (20 cm³ / min) = 960 cm³ min / 20 cm³ =

= 960 min / 20 = 48 min

SCALCET8 4.7.011. Consider the following problem: A farmer with 950 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four pens with fencing parallel to one side of the rectangle. What is the largest possible total area of the four pens

Answers

Answer:

For any rectangle, the one with the largest area will be the one whose dimensions are as close to a square as possible.

However, the dividers change the process to find this maximum somewhat.

Letting x represent two sides of the rectangle and the 3 parallel dividers, we have 2x+3x = 5x.

Letting y represent the other two sides of the rectangle, we have 2y.

We know that 2y + 5x = 750.

Solving for y, we first subtract 5x from each side:

2y + 5x - 5x = 750 - 5x

2y = - 5x + 750

Next we divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = - 5x/2 + 750/2

y = - 2.5x + 375

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by

A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width. In this rectangle, one dimension is x and the other is y, making the area

A = xy

Substituting the expression for y we just found above, we have

A = x (-2.5x+375)

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

This is a quadratic equation, with values a = - 2.5, b = 375 and c = 0.

To find the maximum, we will find the vertex. First we find the axis of symmetry, using the equation

x = - b/2a

x = - 375/2 (-2.5) = - 375/-5 = 75

Substituting this back in place of every x in our area equation, we have

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

A = - 2.5 (75) ² + 375 (75) = - 2.5 (5625) + 28125 = - 14062.5 + 28125 = 14062.5

Step by step explanation:

2L = 2000 ml   Change the liters to milliliters first

2000 ml : 24 hours

Next you cross multiply : 2000 × 1 hour = 2000 and 24 × x = 24x

Then you divide:

When this is rounded off it is equal to 83.33

two cars started to move towards each other at the same time. the speed of the first car was twice the speed of the second car. they met in two hours. if the distance traveled altogether was 300 km find the rates of the cars.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v be the speed of the slower car

2v is the speed of the faster car

In 2 hrs, the slower car travels a distance of

2 hr(v km/hr) = 2v km

In 2 hrs, the faster car travels a distance of

2 hr(2v km/hr) = 4v km

2v + 4v = 300

6v = 300

 v = 50 km/hr

2v = 100 km/hr

2.)

P(x < 230) ;

Online Poll

We can conclude that

c. most Americans prefer Clay Aiken out of those former contestants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample responses received from the poll = 941,434

Proportion of voters for Clay Aiken = 55%

Computed proportion of voters for the other 5 contestants = 45% (100% - 55%)

This gives an average of 7.5% (45%/5) for the other 5 contestants.

Therefore, the conclusion is that "most Americans prefer Clay Aiken out of those former contestants" in the American Idol contest.

A local church holds an annual raffle to raise money for a new roof. They sell only 500 tickets at $50 each. This year's prizes include: $3,000 in cash, four $100 Amazon gift cards, and two $75 Visa gift cards. You buy one ticket. What is your mathematical expectation for this game

Answers

Answer:

The expectation for an event with outcomes:

{x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}

Each one with probability:

{p₁, p₂, ..., pₙ}

Is:

Ev = x₁*p₁ + ... + xₙ*pₙ

There are 500 tickets sold.

1 of these, wins $3,000  (this is the event x₁)

4 of these, wins $100     (this is the event x₂)

2 of these, wins $75        (this is the event x₃)

The others do not have a prize.

So the probability of winning the $3000 is equal to the quotient between the number of tickets with that prize (1) and the total number of tickets (500)

p₁ = 1/500

Similarly, the probability of winning $100 will be:

p₂ = 4/500

And for the $75 prize:

p₃ = 2/500

Then the probability of not winning is:

p₄ = 493/500

Then the expected value for a single ticket is:

Ev = $0*493/500 + $75*2/500 + $100*4/500 + $3000*1/500

Ev = $7.1

If you take in account that you pay $50 for the ticket, the actual expectation should be:

E = $7.10 - $50 = -$42.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change:

The average rate of a function f(x) in an interval [a,b] is given by:

[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]D(q) = -0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56[/tex]

What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?

[tex]a = 40, b = 175[/tex]. So

[tex]D(40) = -0.0003*40^2 - 0.04*40 + 23.56 = 21.48[/tex]

[tex]D(175) = -0.0003*175^2 - 0.04*175 + 23.56 = 7.3725[/tex]

So

[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} = \frac{7.3725 - 21.48}{175 - 40} = -0.1045[/tex]

The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.

Political historians, examining sources such as voting records, newspapers, and politicians writings, focus on the emergence in the 1840s of a new "American political nation," and since women were neither voters nor politicians, they receive little discussion. Womens historians, meanwhile, have shown little interest in the subject of party politics, instead drawing on personal papers, legal records such as wills, and records of female associations to illuminate womens domestic lives, their moral reform activities, and the emergence of the womans rights movement.However, most historians have underestimated the extent and significance of womens political allegiance in the antebellum period. For example, in the presidential election campaigns of the 1840s, the Virginia Whig party strove to win the allegiance of Virginias women by inviting them to rallies and speeches. According to Whig propaganda, women who turned out at the partys rallies gathered information that enabled them to mold party-loyal families, reminded men of moral values that transcended party loyalty, and conferred moral standing on the party. Virginia Democrats, in response, began to make similar appeals to women as well. By the mid-1850s the inclusion of women in the rituals of party politics had become commonplace and the ideology that justified such inclusion had been assimilated by the Democrats.The primary purpose of the passage as a whole is toA. examine the tactics of antebellum political parties with regard to womenB. trace the effect of politics on the emergence of the womans rights movementC. point out a deficiency in the study of a particular historical periodD. discuss the ideologies of opposing antebellum political partiesE. contrast the methodologies in two differing fields of historical inquiry 15.
