First let us assign the three positive integers to be x, y, and z.
From the given problem statement, we know that:
(1/x) + (1/y) + (1/z) = 1
Without loss of generality we can assume x < y
< z.
We know that:
1 = (1/3) + (1/3) + (1/3)
Where x = y = z = 3 would be a solution
However this could not be true because x, y, and z must all be different integers. And x, y, and z cannot all be 3 or bigger than 3 because the sum would then be less than 1. So let us say that x is a denominator that is less than 3. So x = 2, and we have:
(1/2) + (1/y) + (1/z) = 1
Therefore
(1/y) + (1/z) = 1/2
We also know that:
(1/4) + (1/4) = (1/2)
and y = z = 4 would be a solution, however this is also not true because y and z must also be different. And y and z cannot be larger than 4, so y=3, therefore
(1/2) + (1/3) + (1/z) = 1
Now we are left by 1 variable so we calculate for z. Multiply both sides by 6z:
3z + 2z + 6 = 6z
z = 6
Therefore:
(1/2) + (1/3) + (1/6) = 1
so {x,y,z}={2,3,6}

The graph of F(x) can be compressrd vertically and shifted to the right to produce the graph of G(x). If F(x) = x^3, which of the following could be the equation of g(x)?
A.) G(x) = 1/2(x-6)^3
B.) G(x) = 2(x-6)^3
C.) G(x) = 2(x+6)^3
D.) G(x) = 1/2(x+6)^3
It is option A. A vertical compression means that
the function is only a "fraction" of its original height, hence the
fractional coefficient.
REMEMBER, movement along the x-axis is always the OPPOSITE of
what you think. So left = + and right = -
So (x-6) actually means a shift 6 units to the right. (NOT
left like you would naturally think)
The results of a study indicate that the mean weight of adult skunks in an area is between 4.3 kg and 4.9 kg. What is the study’s margin of error?
Since we are given the range of the area, the margin of error can be calculated by firstly calculating the difference of the range and dividing by 2. This is expressed in this formula:
Margin of error = ± (Upper range – Lower range) / 2
Margin of error = ± (4.9 kg – 4.3 kg) /2
Margin of error = ± 0.3 kg
The temperature of a chemical reaction ranges between −10 degrees Celsius and 50 degrees Celsius. The temperature is at its lowest point when t = 0, and the reaction completes 1 cycle during a 6-hour period. What is a cosine function that models this reaction?
f(t) = −30 cos (pi/3) t + 20
f(t) = −60 cos (pi/3) t + 30
f(t) = 30 cos (6t) + 20
f(t) = 60 cos (6t) + 30
Answer:
Option 1 - [tex]f(t)=-30 sin(\frac{\pi}{3}t)+20[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : The temperature of a chemical reaction ranges between −10 degrees Celsius and 50 degrees Celsius. The temperature is at its lowest point when t = 0, and the reaction completes 1 cycle during a 6-hour period.
To find : What is a cosine function that models this reaction?
Solution :
General form of cosine function is [tex]f(x)=A cos(Bx)+C[/tex]
Where A is the amplitude
[tex]B=\frac{2\pi}{\text{Period}}[/tex]
C is the midline
Now, We have given
The temperature of a chemical reaction ranges between −10 degrees Celsius and 50 degrees Celsius.
A is the average of temperature,
i.e, [tex]A=\frac{-10-50}{2}=-30[/tex]
Period of 1 cycle is 6 hour
So, [tex]B=\frac{2\pi}{6}=\frac{\pi}{3}[/tex]
The temperature is at its lowest point when t = 0 and we know lowest point is -10
So, [tex]f(t)=A\cos t+C[/tex]
[tex]-10=-30\cos 0+C[/tex]
[tex]C=20[/tex]
Substituting the values we get,
The cosine function is [tex]f(t)=-30 sin(\frac{\pi}{3}t)+20[/tex]
Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

The Empire State Building is just over 1,450 feet tall. In anticipation of visiting this landmark on your vacation, you create a model of it using blocks.
a. Suppose you are making a model where one block represents 2 feet. About how many blocks tall is your model of the Empire State Building? What is the scale factor?
Answer:
725, 1 per every 2 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
It gives the actual height for the building, 1,450, and it says one block is two feet. Divide 1,450 by 2 and you'd get 725. And we already know dat one block is two feet so it's 1:2

The graphs of f(x) = 10x and its translation, g(x), are shown.
What is the equation of g(x)?
g(x) = 10x – 3
g(x) = 10x + 3
g(x) = 10x – 3
g(x) = 10x + 3
Answer:
The equation for the function g(x) is:
[tex]g(x)=(10)^{x-3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given graphs of two functions f(x) and g(x).
The function f(x) is an exponential function and is given by:
[tex]f(x)=(10)^x[/tex]
Now, we are asked to find the equation for the transformed function g(x).
We could see that the graph of the function g(x) passes through (3,1),(4,10) , (5,100) and so on.
This means that the equation or the expression for the function g(x) is given by:
[tex]g(x)=(10)^{x-3}[/tex]
( Since, when x=3 we have:
[tex]g(x)=(10)^{3-3}=10^0=1[/tex]
when x=4 we have:
[tex]g(x)=(10)^{4-3}\\\\g(x)=(10)^{1}\\\\g(x)=10[/tex]
and so on)
Answer:
(x)=(10)^(x-3)

A square is inscribed in the circle. A point in the figure is selected at random. Find the probability that the point will be in the part that is NOT shaded.
To find the probability of selecting an unshaded area within a circle where a square is inscribed, one must calculate the areas of the shaded and unshaded regions and use these areas to determine the ratio representing the probability.
The question seeks to determine the probability that a randomly selected point within a figure that includes both a circle and a square will be in the unshaded area. To solve this problem, we would typically need to calculate the area of the shaded and unshaded regions and then use these areas to determine the probability. When calculating probability in a geometric context, the ratio of the area of the desired region to the area of the entire space (in this case, the circle) gives the probability of randomly selecting a point in that region.
Similarly, if the question pertained to the probability of selecting a chord shorter than the side of an inscribed equilateral triangle, we would consider the probability distribution of chord lengths within the circle. This problem involves understanding that selecting a chord at random equates to selecting its midpoint at random. If the midpoint lies within a certain area, the chord will be shorter than the triangle's side.
When dealing with probability questions like the one about Times Square visitors, the random variable would typically represent the characteristic we're interested in, such as being a visitor versus a resident. In evaluating probabilities, graphical methods, such as shading areas on a graph, can be useful to visually represent and calculate the likelihood of a specific range of outcomes.

The Sugar Sweet Company will choose from two companies to transport its sugar to market. The first company charges $2510 to rent trucks plus an additional fee of $125.25 for each ton of sugar. The second company does not charge to rent trucks but charges $250.75 for each ton of sugar.
For what amount of sugar do the two companies charge the same?
What is the cost when the two companies charge the same?
The two companies charge the same when transporting 20 tons of sugar, for $5015 for transporting that amount.
To determine what amount of sugar the two companies charge the same, we should set up an equation where both companies' cost functions are equal. For the first company, the cost function is C1 = 2510 + 125.25x, where x is the number of tons of sugar. For the second company, the cost function is C2 = 250.75x. To find the point at which C1 equals C2, we solve for x:
2510 + 125.25x = 250.75x
Subtract 125.25x from both sides:
2510 = (250.75 - 125.25)x
2510 = 125.5x
Divide both sides by 125.5:
x = 2510 / 125.5
x = 20 tons
Therefore, the two companies charge the same for transporting 20 tons of sugar. To find the cost when they charge the same, substitute x into one of the cost functions:
C1 = 2510 + 125.25(20) = 2510 + 2505 = $5015
Thus, the cost when the two companies charge the same is $5015 for 20 tons of sugar.

Ariel has a plastic ice cream cone in her food playset. The ice cream cone is a half-sphere sitting on top of a cone. What is the approximate volume of the toy ice cream cone? Use 3.14 for ππ .
the approximate volume of the toy ice cream cone is around [tex]\( \frac{32}{3}π \)[/tex]cubic inches, considering the half-sphere as[tex]\( \frac{16}{3}π \)[/tex] and the cone as [tex]\( \frac{16}{3}π \).[/tex]
let's calculate the approximate volume of the toy ice cream cone step by step.
First, we need to determine the volume of the half-sphere, which is the ice cream part.
The formula for the volume of a sphere is:
[tex]\[ V_{\text{sphere}} = \frac{4}{3}πr^3 \][/tex]
But since we only have a half-sphere, we'll divide the result by 2.
Now, we need to find the radius ((r)) of the half-sphere. We can do this by measuring the radius of the ice cream cone's base.
Let's say the radius of the ice cream cone's base is (r = 2) inches.
Substituting the value of (r) into the formula:
[tex]\[ V_{\text{half-sphere}} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3}π(2)^3 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{half-sphere}} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{4}{3}π(8) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{half-sphere}} = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{32}{3}π \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{half-sphere}} = \frac{16}{3}π \][/tex]
Now, let's find the volume of the cone part.
The formula for the volume of a cone is:
[tex]\[ V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}πr^2h \][/tex]
Where (h) is the height of the cone.
Let's say the height of the cone is (h = 4) inches.
Substituting the values into the formula:
[tex]\[ V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}π(2)^2(4) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{1}{3}π(16) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{cone}} = \frac{16}{3}π \][/tex]
Now, to find the total volume of the ice cream cone, we'll add the volumes of the half-sphere and the cone together:
[tex]\[ V_{\text{total}} = V_{\text{half-sphere}} + V_{\text{cone}} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{total}} = \frac{16}{3}π + \frac{16}{3}π \][/tex]
[tex]\[ V_{\text{total}} = \frac{32}{3}π \][/tex]
So, the approximate volume of the toy ice cream cone is [tex]\( \frac{32}{3}π \)[/tex]cubic inches.
