what is proportion as applied in mathematics​

Answer:

horizontal expansion factor of 2

2^x =2(2)=4

2^4=2×2×2×2= 16

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

Explanation:

Since f(x) is linear, this means f(x) = mx+b

Let's plug in x = 6

[tex]f(x) = mx+b\\f(6) = m*6+b\\f(6) = 6m+b[/tex]

Repeat for x = 2

[tex]f(x) = mx+b\\f(2) = m*2+b\\f(2) = 2m+b[/tex]

Now subtract the two function outputs

[tex]f(6)-f(2) = (6m+b)-(2m+b)\\f(6)-f(2) = 6m+b-2m-b\\f(6)-f(2) = 4m\\[/tex]

The b terms cancel out which is very handy.

Set this equal to 12, since f(6)-f(2) = 12, and solve for m

[tex]f(6)-f(2) = 12\\4m = 12\\m = 12/4\\m = 3\\[/tex]

So the slope of f(x) is m = 3

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

Next, plug in x = 12

[tex]f(x) = mx+b\\f(12) = m*12+b\\f(12) = 12m+b[/tex]

We can then say:

[tex]f(12)-f(2) = (12m+b)-(2m+b)\\f(12)-f(2) = 12m+b-2m-b\\f(12)-f(2) = 10m\\[/tex]

Lastly, we plug in m = 3

[tex]f(12)-f(2) = 10m\\f(12)-f(2) = 10*3\\f(12)-f(2) = 30\\[/tex]

Answer:

0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, the | symbol means "given", so we can phrase the question as "Find the probability that a student watches more than one hour of TV given that they are in the 6th period class"

Next, because there is a 100% chance that the student is in the 6th period class, we can disregard the results of the 3rd period class.

Given that the student is in the 6th period class, there are 15 total students (as 9+6=15 = the sum of the yes and no answers for 6th period) and 9 students that said yes. Therefore, there is a 9/15 = 3/5 = 0.6 probability that a student watches more than 1 hour of TV given that they are in the 6th period class

Answer:

The probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a town recently dismissed 8 employees in order to meet their new budget reductions, and the town had 9 employees over 50 years of age and 16 under 50, if the dismissed employees were selected at random, to determine what is the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50, the following calculation must be performed:

9/25 x 8/24 x 7/23 x 6/22 x 5/21 x 4/20 x 3/19 = X

0.36 x 0.33 x 0.304 x 0.272 x 0.238 x 0.2 x 0.157 = X

0.000073 = X

100X = 0.0073

Therefore, the probability that at least 7 employees were over 50 is 0.0073%.

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Scale = 2 inches represents 5 miles

This means that 2 inches in the map equals to 5 miles on ground ;

Hence, if the trail measures 12 inches on the map, the length on ground will be ; x

2 inches = 5 miles

12 inches = x miles

Cross multiply :

2x = (12 * 5)

2x = 60

x = 60 / 2

x = 30 miles

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation :

Let % increase in administrative secretary be = x

Let % increase in new faculty receive be = y

Administrative secretary salary = 28,000

New faculty receive Salary = 40,000

(8)*(x/100)* (28000) + (7)*(y/100)*(40000) = 5,000

2240x +2800 y = 5,000

224x +280 y = 500

56x +70y = 125

Therefore, x and y should be chosen such that it satisfy the above equation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is nice and simple. I'm going to walk through it like I do when teaching this concept to my class for the first time. This is a good problem for that.

We are given a square and we are looking for the rate at which the area is increasing when a certain set of specifics are given. That means that the main equation for this problem is the area of a square, which is:

[tex]A=s^2[/tex] where s is a side.

Since we are looking for the rate at which the area is changing, [tex]\frac{dA}{dt}[/tex], we need to take the derivative of area formula implicitly:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}=2s\frac{ds}{dt}[/tex] that means that if [tex]\frac{dA}{dt}[/tex] is our unknown, we need values for everything else. We are given that the initial area for the square is 49. That will help us determine what the "s" in our derivative is. We plug in 49 for A and solve:

[tex]49=s^2[/tex] so

s = 7

We are also given at the start that the sides of this square are increasing at a rate of 8cm/s. That is [tex]\frac{ds}{dt}[/tex]. Filling it all in:

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}=2(7)(8)[/tex] and

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}=112\frac{cm^2}{s}[/tex]

The surface area of a square of side L is given by

[tex]A = L^2[/tex]

The rate of change of the area per unit time is

[tex]\dfrac{dA}{dt} = 2L\dfrac{dL}{dt}[/tex]

We can express the length L on the right hand side in terms of the area A [tex](L = \sqrt{A})[/tex]:

[tex]\dfrac{dA}{dt} = 2\sqrt{A}\dfrac{dL}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=2(\sqrt{49\:\text{cm}^2})(8\:\text{cm/s})[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:=112\:\text{cm}^2\text{/s}[/tex]

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following functions:

r(x) = x - 6

s(x) = 2x²

r(s(x)) = r(2x²)

Replacing x with 2x² in r(x) will give;

r(2x²) = 2x² - 6

r(s(x)) = 2x² - 6

(r-s)(x) = r(x) - s(x)

(r-s)(x) = x - 6 - 2x²

Rearrange

(r-s)(x) = - 2x²+x-6

(r+s)(x) = r(x) + s(x)

(r-s)(x) = x - 6 + 2x²

Rearrange

(r-s)(x) = 2x²+x-6

Answer: -3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Expanding z we get  

z = 4x^2 - 4xy + y^2 - 2y^2 - 3y

  = -y^2 - (4x + 3) y + 4x^2.

After Archimedes chooses x, Brahmagupta will choose

y=-(4x+3/2) in order to maximize z

Then  

z=-((-4x+3)/2)^2 -(4x+3)(-4x+3)/2)^2)+4x^2

z=8x^2+6x+9/4

To minimize this expression, Archimedes should choose x=-3/8

Answer:

Kenji is wrong because he does not aply the porperty correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

A exponetiation has this form:

[tex]\boxed{a^b}[/tex]

a is the base

b is the power or exponent

To understand that situation it's important to know a property about exponentiation. When we have a multiplication with the same exponent and diferent bases, the result is the multiplication of the bases with the same exponent. Let's see this above, in mathematical language:

[tex]\boxed{a^b \cdot c^b = (a\cdot c) ^b}[/tex]

Examples:

Now, we can say why Kenji is wrong. It's easy simplify [tex]3^5 \cdot 4^5[/tex]! We know that the result is [tex](3 \cdot 4) ^5 = 12^5[/tex], but Kenji multiplied the bases and added the exponents, that's why he is wrong.

I hope I've helped. ^^

Answer:

u = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

cos theta = adj side / hypotenuse

cos 45 = sqrt(2) / u

u cos 45 = sqrt(2)

u = sqrt(2) / cos 45

u = sqrt(2) / 1/ sqrt(2)

u = sqrt(2) * sqrt(2)

u =2

u=2

Answer:

Solution given:

Cos 45°=base/hypotenuse

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{u}[/tex]

doing crisscrossed multiplication
