Explain what needs to happen to the inequality sign when dividing or multiplying by a negative number. a. nothing happens c. change the inequality sign to an equals sign b. flip the inequality sign d. the inequality needs to be graphed on a number line

Answers

Answer 1
flip the inequality sign 
so the answer is B
Answer 2

Answer:

(B) flip the inequality sign.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we consider an inequality such that [tex]-x\leq7[/tex], then if we multiply the inequality with a negative number such as [tex]-1[/tex], then the inequality becomes [tex]x\geq-7[/tex].

Also, if we divide the above inequality  [tex]-x\leq7[/tex], by a negative number that is  [tex]-1[/tex], then the inequality becomes [tex]x\geq-7[/tex].

Therefore, if we multiply or divide an inequality by a negative number, then it flips the inequality sign.

Hence, option (B) is correct.

You cut a 90 cm long rope into two pieces. the longer piece is 2 times as long as the shorter piece. what is length of the longer piece and the shorter piece respectively?

Answers

Total length of rope = 90 cm

Let the shorter piece be x.

Thus, the length of the longer piece = 2x.

2x + x = 90 

3x = 90

x = 30. 

Therefore, the shorter piece is 30 cm and the longer piece is 60 cm.

Which of the following shows the extraneous solution(s) to the logarithmic equation? log4 (x) + log4(x - 3) = log4 (-7x + 21)

A. x= -7
B. x= -3
C. x= 3 and x= -7
D. x=7 and x= -3

Answers

Answer: The correct option is C, i.e., x=3 and x=-7.

Explanation:

The given equation is,

[tex]log_4(x)+log_4(x-3)=log_4(-7x+21)[/tex]

Using product property of logarithm [tex]log_a(mn)=log_am+log_an[/tex]

[tex]log_4(x(x-3))=log_4(-7x+21)[/tex]

[tex]log_4(x^2-3x)=log_4(-7x+21)[/tex]

On comparing both sides,

[tex]x^2-3x=-7x+21[/tex]

[tex]x^2-3x+7x-21=0[/tex]

[tex]x^2+4x-21=0[/tex]

Using grouping method 4x can be written as (7x-3x). Because the product of 7 and -3 is equal to the constant term -21 and the addition of 7 and -3 is equal to the coefficient of x.

[tex]x^2+7x-3x-21=0[/tex]

[tex]x(x+7)-3(x+7)=0[/tex]

[tex](x-3)(x+7)=0[/tex]

Equate each factor equal to 0.

The value of x is 3 and -7. Therefore, the option C is correct.


The extraneous solutions are x=3 or x=−7.

We have the equation; log4 (x) + log4(x - 3) = log4 (-7x + 21) we can write;

log4[x(x - 3)] = log4 (-7x + 21)

log4 can be cancelled out from both sides and we have;

x^2 - 3x = -7x + 21

To have a proper quadratic equation;

x^2 + 4x -21 = 0

The solutions of the quadratic equation therefore are x=3 or x=−7.

If 1/3 of an office staff is on vacation and 1/4 of those not on vacation are out sick, what fraction of the staff is in the office

Answers

Let x be the total number of staff in the office.

Thus,

The number of staff on vacation = [tex] \frac{1}{3} x[/tex]

Since, it says that staff out sick are among those not on vacation, we have to subtract the number of staff on vacation from the total number of staff.

The number of staff out sick = [tex] \frac{1}{4} (x - \frac{1}{3}x)[/tex]

Hence,

The number of staff in the office = [tex]x - \frac{1}{3} x - \frac{1}{4} (x- \frac{1}{3} x) = (x - \frac{1}{3} x)(1 - \frac{1}{4} ) = x(1- \frac{1}{3})(1- \frac{1}{4}) = x( \frac{2}{3})( \frac{3}{4}) [/tex] [tex]= \frac{1}{4} x[/tex]

A projectile is thrown upward so that it's distance above the ground after t seconds is h=-16t^2 +672t. After how many seconds does it reach its maximum height?

Answers

It will reach its maximum height at the vertex of the parabola.  Which is always:

(-b/(2a), (4ac-b^2)/(4a))

So the time when this occurs is the x coordinate, or t in this case.

-b/(2a), and b=672 and a=-16 so

t=-672/-32

t=21 seconds

Answer: 21 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a parabola with equation [tex]y=ax^2+bx+c[/tex] attains its maximum height at :-

[tex]x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}[/tex]

The given function: [tex]h=-16t^2 +672t[/tex]

It will attain its maximum height at :

[tex]t=\dfrac{-672}{2(-16)}=21[/tex]

Hence , after 21 seconds the projectile will reach its maximum height .

Newton's cooling model is ΔT = ΔTo * e ^ (-k t)

ΔTo = 200°F - 70°F = 130°F

k = 0.6

t = 2 hours

W = 13.5

Answer:

Step 1 would be to add 3.8 on both sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Equation mentioned in the question is a simple Algebra Equation. We need to solve for W. To do so, we need to get the variable W alone on one side.

Initial Equation:  [tex]1.2W-3.8 = 12.4[/tex]

Step 1: Add 3.8 on both sides. [tex]1.2W = 16.2[/tex]

There is a traffic light at the intersection of Walnut Street and Lawrence Avenue. The traffic light on Walnut Street follows a cycle. It is green for 50 seconds, yellow for 10 seconds, and red for 30 seconds. As you travel along Walnut and approach the intersection, what is the probability that the first color you see is red?

1/5

1/3

3/5

1/2

Answers

From the given above, we calculate for the total cycle time by adding up all the durations given for the yellow light, red light, and green. That is,
    total time = 30 s + 10 s + 50 s = 90s
Hence, the total time is equal to 90 s. From this, we calculate for the probability that the first light that will be seen is a red light by dividing the duration of the red light in the cycle by the total time. 
 Probability = (30 seconds) / (90 seconds) 
                   = 1/3

Therefore, the probability that the red light will be seen first is equal to 1/3. The answer is second choice. 

The sum of the first three terms of a convergent geometric series is 19. the sum of the series is 27. find the first term and the common ratio.

Answers

1st,since this GP is convergent that means the common ratio r <1
2nd, sum of a GP = a₁(1-rⁿ)/(1-r), where a₁ = 1st term and n=number of terms
3rd, for any convergent GP, r<1 and the sum of all terms =a₁/(1-r): Why?
[since r<1 → lim rⁿ when n→∞, =0 in the formula of the 2nd)]
Now let's  solve :

a) Sum = a₁(1-r³)/(1-r) = 19 (sum of the first 3 terms)
b) Σ(Sum) = a₁/(1-r) = 27 (sum of all terms of this CONVERGENT GP)

Divide a) by b):

[a₁(1-r³)/(1-r)] / [a₁/(1-r)] = 19 /27 ↔ [a₁(1-r³)/(1-r)] x [(1-r)/a₁]=19/27.
Simplify:
(1-r³) = 19/27
-r³ = 19/27 - 1
r³ = 8/27

r = ∛(8/27)

r = 2/3 and a₁ = 9 (Plug r in the Σ sum)
Hence first term a₁ = 9
and common ration r =2/3

Which of the following shows the graph of a line through (-2,2) and (2,4)

Answers

You didn't include the options, but one and only one line passes through two poins.

You can find the equation of the line that passes through two known points in this way:

[Y -Y1] / [X -X1] = [Y2 - Y1] / [X2 -X1]

in this case (X1,Y1) = (-2,2) and (X2,Y2) = (2,4)

=> [Y - (2) ] / [X - (-2) ] = [4 - 2] / [2 - (-2) ]

=> [Y -2] / [X + 2] = 2/4 = 1/2

=> 2 * (Y - 2)  = X + 2

=> 2Y - 4 = X + 2

=> 2Y = X + 2 + 4

=> 2y = x + 6

=> y = x/2 + 3

So you must look the graph of that equation.

Some of the points of that graph are:

x         y

B.) The graph is nearly symmetrical.

C.) The graph is skewed left.

D.) The graph is perfectly symmetrical.

Answers

Let's think of this problem easily by looking at it instead of going through rigorous mathematics.

When a graph is skewed right, most of the values are to the left side.

When a graph is skewed left, most of the values are to the right side.

Perfectly symmetrical is that both sides, with respect to the median, are same. Here mean and median is equal.

Nearly symmetrical would really close to perfect symmetry, only varying a bit on both sides. Mean would be approximately equal to median.

Now counting the dots as well as looking closely, we can rule out skewed right and skewed left. Now, is the graph perfectly symmetrical? No! So the correct answer is "nearly symmetrical". Correct choice is B.
