Solve x2 = 144

Select one:
a. 72
b. 12
c. ±12
d. −12

So I chose B which I thought was correct but it was wrong

Answers

Answer 1
The answer would be C. ±12 Your original answer is only half right. Both possible answers to the equation is 12 and -12, making your answer ±12 meaning either positive 12 or negative 12.
Answer 2

Power is the result of multiplying two numbers together. The solution of the x²=144 is ±12. The correct option is C.

What is power?

Power is the result of multiplying two numbers together such that both numbers are equal to each other. Power is typically expressed by a base number and an exponent. The base number indicates the number being multiplied. The exponent, which is a little number printed above and to the right of the base number, indicates the number of times the base number is multiplied.

The solution of the given expression can be written as,

x² = 144

x² = 12×12  or -12×-12

x = √(12×12)  or √(-12×-12)

x = 12 or -12

x = ±12

Thus, the solution of the x²=144 is ±12. This is because the multiplication of two positive numbers is positive, also, the sum of the two negative numbers is positive.

Hence, the solution of the x²=144 is ±12

A problem states: "There are 5 more girls than boys at the party. There are 27 children at the party in all. How many boys are there at the party?"

Let b represent the number of boys.

Which expression represents the number of girls?
A .b+5 B. b*5 C. b-5 D. 5-b

Answers

27-5 = 22

22/11 = 11

there are 11 boys at the party

expression = b+5

if b = boys......and there are 5 more girls then boys.....then the expression that represents girls is : b + 5

b + b + 5 = 27
2b + 5 = 27
2b = 27 - 5
2b = 22
b = 22/2
b = 11......there are 11 boys

g = b + 5
g = 11 + 5
g = 16....there are 16 girls

The force of gravity is less on Mars than it is on Earth. As a result, the weight of an object on Mars m is 40% of its weight on Earth w. Determine which function you would use to find the weight on Mars of a space probe that weighs 15 lb on Earth. Then find the objects weight on Mars.

Answers

If the weight of an object on Mars (m) is 40% of its weight on Earth(w), then our equation would be:

m = 0.4w

Space probe:
m = 0.4(15)
m = 6 lb
The general function is y =0.4.(x), where:

y = the weight on Mars
x = the weight on earth
and 0.4 a coefficient (given = 40% = 0.4)

Now if x = 15lb then on mars it weights y = 0.4.(15) = 6 lb

Work out the total amount Adam earned last week

Answers

Okay, so we know that Adam earns £200, plus 10% of (42*8) and 15% of (15*14)
To work out the payment for the magazines, you multiply 42 and 8, which gives 366 and find 10% of that, which is £36.60
To work out the payment for the books, you multiply 14 by 15, which gives 210 and find 15% of that, which is £31.50
Then add all the amounts together
£200+ £36.60+ £31.50= £268.10

Find the sum of the first 30 terms of the sequence, An = 3n + 2

Answers

To find the answer above you would have to use a graph

Answer:

The sum of the first 30 terms of the sequence [tex]\( A_n = 3n + 2 \)[/tex] is 1455.

Explanation:

To find the sum of the first 30 terms of the sequence [tex]\( A_n = 3n + 2 \),[/tex] we need to substitute the values of [tex]\( n \)[/tex] from 1 to 30 into the formula and then add them together.

The formula for the [tex]\( n \)[/tex]th term of the sequence is [tex]\( A_n = 3n + 2 \).[/tex]

Let's find the first 30 terms of the sequence:

[tex]\[ A_1 = 3(1) + 2 = 5 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ A_2 = 3(2) + 2 = 8 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ A_3 = 3(3) + 2 = 11 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \vdots \][/tex]

[tex]\[ A_{30} = 3(30) + 2 = 92 \][/tex]

Now, we need to find the sum of these terms:

[tex]\[ \text{Sum} = A_1 + A_2 + A_3 + \ldots + A_{30} \][/tex]

To find the sum, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series:

[tex]\[ \text{Sum} = \frac{n}{2}(A_1 + A_{30}) \][/tex]

Where:

- [tex]\( n \)[/tex] is the number of terms (30 in this case)

- [tex]\( A_1 \)[/tex] is the first term (5)

- [tex]\( A_{30} \)[/tex] is the 30th term (92)

Now, let's calculate the sum:

[tex]\[ \text{Sum} = \frac{30}{2}(5 + 92) \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Sum} = \frac{30}{2}(97) \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Sum} = 15 \times 97 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Sum} = 1455 \][/tex]

Holly wants to save money for an emergency. Holly invests 1,500 in an account that pays an interest rate of 6.75%. How many years will it take for the account to reach 7300? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value 7300
P present value 1500
R interest rate 0.0675
T time?
7300=1500 (1+0.0675)^t
Solve for t
Divide both sides by 1500
7300/1500=1.0675^t
Take the log for both sides
Log (7300/1500)=t×log (1.0675)
Divide both sides by log (1.0675)
T=log(7,300÷1,500)÷log(1.0675)
T=24.2 years round your answer to get 24 years

Hope it helps!
Although the problem didn't mention it, I guess this is a compound interest, if so, then:

A= P(1+i%)ⁿ , where P is the original capital, i% = interest and n= number of years

7300 = 1500(1 + 0.0675)ⁿ

7300/1500 = (1.0675)ⁿ

4.86666 = (1,0675)ⁿ

log(4.86666)= n.log(1.0675)
0.687231 = n(0.028367)

n = 0.687231 / 0.028367

n = 24.23 years

A person is strolling along a moving walkway at a constant velocity of +1.00 m/s with respect to the walkway, which moves at a constant velocity of +0.50 m/s with respect to the ground. an observer on the ground is walking at a constant velocity of -0.2 m/s. what is the velocity of the person on the walkway with respect to the observer on the ground?

Answers

Refer to the diagram shown below.

The velocity of the person on the walkway relative to the ground is the velocity of the walkway (relative to the ground) plus the velocity of the person relative to the walkway.
It is
1.0 + 0.5 = 1.5 m/s

The person on the ground moves at - 0.2 m/s, which is in the opposite direction to that of the walkway and the person on the walkway.
Therefore the velocity of the person on the walkway relative to the person on the ground is
105 - (-0.2) = 1.7 m/s

Answer: 1.7 m/s

What is the rate at which work is done on the refrigerator? carnot?

Answers

Work done = Force x Distance
Work done = Energy converted

The rate at which work is done on the refrigerator and Carnot refrigerator depends on the cooling effect desired and the efficiency of the refrigerator.

For a refrigerator,

The coefficient of performance is Qc / W

For a Carnot refrigerator,

The coefficient of performance is Tc / (Th - Tc).

We have,

The rate at which work is done on the refrigerator depends on the specific context or situation.

In general terms,

Work is done on a refrigerator when an external force or energy is applied to the refrigerator to compress the refrigerant and drive the cooling cycle.

This work is usually done by a compressor, which requires energy input to operate.

The efficiency of a refrigerator, including Carnot refrigerators, is given by the coefficient of performance (COP).

The COP is defined as the ratio of the cooling effect (Qc) to the work input (W):

COP = Qc / W

For a Carnot refrigerator, which is an idealized and reversible refrigerator operating between two temperature reservoirs, the COP is given by:

COP = Tc / (Th - Tc)

Where:

Tc = Temperature of the cold reservoir (inside the refrigerator)

Th = Temperature of the hot reservoir (outside the refrigerator)

Generally, higher-efficiency refrigerators require less work input to achieve a given cooling effect.

However, the actual rate of work done on a specific refrigerator depends on its design, efficiency, and the cooling requirements of the system.

Thus,

The rate at which work is done on the refrigerator and Carnot depends on the cooling effect desired and the efficiency of the refrigerator.

Each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. The sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in Japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. A wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. Any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. The seventieth-ranked wrestler in Japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. Life isnt very sweet outside the elite. Low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. So ranking is everything. A wrestlers ranking is based on his performance in the elite tournaments that are held six times a year. Each wrestler has fifteen bouts per tournament, one per day over fifteen consecutive days. If he finishes the tournament with a winning record (eight victories or better), his ranking will rise. If he has a losing record, his ranking falls. If it falls far enough, he is booted from the elite rank entirely. The eighth victory in any tournament is therefore critical, the difference between promotion and demotion; it is roughly four times as valuable in the rankings as the typical victory.
