Why do some absolute value equations have no solution?

Answers

Answer 1
Because both positive and negative values have a positive absolute value.
Answer 2
An absolute value is the distance from 0 on a number line so it must be a positive number, and so  because of that it is impossible to get or equal -1, this equation has no solution.

Kyra typed 140 words in 5 minuets. Then, she typed 196 words in 7 minutes. Was her rate of words per minute constant? If so, what is the constant of proportionality?

Answers

Hello lamdravenox! There are a few ways to tell if the rate of words per minute are constant but we can divide 140/5 and 196/7 to tell if the rate of words per minute are constant.

First divide 140 / 5 = 28 words per min
Second divide 196 / 7 = 28 words per min

So we can see the rate of words per minute is constants and her rate is at 28 words per min so the constant of proportionality is 28 words per minute.

1/4x + 1/3 = 1/6x - 1/4

Answers

1/4x + 1/3 = 1/6x - 1/4

We simply want to isolate x.

So, we must get x onto it's own side of the equal sign.

To do that, we subtract 1/3 from both sides.

1/4x = 1/6x - 1/4 - 1/3


Then, subtract 1/6x from both sides.

1/4x - 1/6x = -1/4 - 1/3

Simplify.

1/4x → 3/12x  ; -1/6x → -2/12x   ; -1/4 → -3/12  ; -1/3 → -4/12

Plug these into our equation.

3/12x - 2/12x = -3/12 - 4/12 

Simplify.

1/12x = -7/12

Multiply everything by 12.

12 · 1/12x = -7/12 · 12

Simplify.

Hamza bought 8 gallons of brown paint to paint his kitchen and dinning room. Unfortunately, when hamza started painting, he thought the paint was too dark for his house,so he wanted he wanted to make it lighter. The store manager would not let hamza return the paint but did inform that if he used 1 4 of a gallon of white paint mixed with 2 gallons of brown paint, he would get the shade of brown he desires. If hamza decided to take this approach, how many gallons of white paint would hamza have to buy to lighten the 8 gallons of brown paint?

Answers

I believe he would need 56 gallons of white paint.
Is that supposed to be 1, 4 or 14 gallons of white paint? There is a space between the 1 and the 4, but I went with 14 originally.

ANSWER: 56 gallons of white paint

Why?

14 gallons of white paint for every 2 gallons of brown paint
8 divided by 2 = 4 times the amount of white paint needed for 2
4 x 14 = 56 gallons of white pains

IF it was supposed to be 1 or 4 gallons of white paint per 2 gallons of brown

For 1 gallon of white paint for every 2 gallons of brown the answer would be
4 x 1 = 4.

If it should say 4 gallons of white for every 2 gallons of brown the answer would be 4 x 4 = 16.

The circular base of a cone has a radius of 5 centimeters. The height of the cone is 12 centimeters, and the slant height is 13 centimeters. What is the approximate surface area of the cone? Use 3.14 for π and round to the nearest whole number. 267 cm2 283 cm2 456 cm2 487 cm2

Answers

Answer:

Option B. is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circular base of a cone has a radius of 5 cm. The height of the cone is 12 cm. Slant height of the cone is 13 cm.

We have to calculate the approximate surface area of the cone.

Since we know Surface area of a cone = Area of circular base + lateral area of the cone

Now Surface area of a cone = πr² + πrl = πr(r + l)

By putting the values of the dimensions of a cone in the formula.

S.A. = π (5² + 5×13) = 3.14×(25 + 65) = 3.14×(90) = 282.60 ≈ 283 cm²

Therefore, Option B is the correct option.

now, it takes 1 second for light to travel 300,000,000 meters.

300,000,000 * 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 * 110,000   that many meters.

we know she travels the Milky Way in 110,000 years  or 60 * 60 * 24 * 365 * 110,000  seconds

and we know that 110,000 years is 3468960000000 seconds, so

What is the factorization of 49b2 − 81? (7b – 9)(7b – 9) (7b – 9)(7b + 9) (7b2 – 9)(7b2 – 9) (7b2 – 9)(7b2 + 9)

Answers

49b^2 − 81 =  (7b + 9)(7b – 9)

answer
(7b – 9)(7b + 9)
Final answer:

The factorization of 49b² - 81 using the difference of squares formula is (7b - 9)(7b + 9).

Explanation:

The question is asking to factorize the expression 49b² - 81, which is a difference of two squares. The difference of squares formula is a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b). In your question, a² is 49b² and b² is 81. Therefore, a would be 7b (since square root of 49b² is 7b) and b would be 9 (since square root of 81 is 9).

Thus, using the formula, the factorization of 49b² - 81 will be (7b - 9)(7b + 9). This provides an explanation of the concepts involved and the steps followed in the solution.

The point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through (–5, –1) and (10, –7) is y + 7 = (x – 10). What is the standard form of the equation for this line?

Answers

That point slope equation given does not pass through those points, the point slope equation y + 7 = -0.4(x - 10) does, though. The standard form of that would be 

2x + 5y = -15

You can get that by distributing the -0.4 out

y + 7 = -0.4x + 4

You can then add 0.4x to both sides, and subtract 7 from both sides to get

0.4x + y = -3

Now some teachers may accept this, but in correct standard form the coefficient of x is a whole number, so you have to multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of the decimal, and you get

so, if the population doubled in 5 years, that means t = 5.  So say, if we use an amount for "i" or P in your case, to be 1, then after 5 years it'd be 2, and thus i = 1 and A = 2, let's find "r" or "k" in your equation.

What system of linear inequalities is shown in the graph? Enter your answers in the boxes.

Answers

First, find the equation of the lines:

y=-2x+2 and y=1/3x+2

We see that the shaded part is below the y=1/3x+2 graph, so it becomes y<1/3x+2 (It's not ≤ since it's a dotted line)

For the y=-2x+2, the shaded part is under the line as well, so it becomes y≤-2x+2 (Here, we include the ≤ since it's a solid line)

So your answer is y<1/3x+2 and y≤-2x+2.

Step 1

Find the slope of the dotted line A

Let

[tex]A(-3,1)\\B(0,2)[/tex]

Find the slope m

[tex]m=\frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)}[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(2-1)}{(0+3)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(1)}{(3)}[/tex]

[tex]mA=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Step 2

Find the equation of the line A

we know that

[tex]y-y1=m(x-x1)[/tex]

we have

[tex]mA=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]B(0,2)[/tex]

substitute

[tex]y-2=\frac{1}{3}(x-0)[/tex]

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3}x+2[/tex]

Step 3

Find the equation of the inequality A

we know that

the solution is below the dotted line A

so

the inequality A is    

[tex]y<\frac{1}{3}x+2[/tex]

Step 4

Find the slope of the solid line B

Let

[tex]B(0,2)\\C(1,0)[/tex]

Find the slope m

[tex]m=\frac{(y2-y1)}{(x2-x1)}[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]m=\frac{(0-2)}{(1-0)}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{(-2)}{(1)}[/tex]

[tex]mB=-2[/tex]

Step 5

Find the equation of the line B

we know that

[tex]y-y1=m(x-x1)[/tex]

we have

[tex]mB=-2[/tex]

[tex]B(0,2)[/tex]

substitute

[tex]y-2=-2(x-0)[/tex]

[tex]y=-2x+2[/tex]

Step 6

Find the equation of the inequality B

we know that

the solution is below the solid line B

so

the inequality B is    

[tex]y\leq -2x+2[/tex]

therefore

The system of linear inequalities is

[tex]y<\frac{1}{3}x+2[/tex]

[tex]y\leq -2x+2[/tex]

Object moving in the xy-plane is acted on by a conservative force described by the potential-energy function u(x,y)=α(1/x2+1/y2), where α is a positive constant

Answers

It seems like the problem is asking for us to derive an expression for the force F⃗ stated in terms of the unit vectors i^ and j^.

The solution for this is:


U(x,y) = α (x^-2 + y^-2) 


F = - dU(x,y) 


F = - (dU/dx + dU/dy) 


F = - (-2αx^-3 - 2αy^-3) 


F = 2α (x^-3 + y^-3)


F = 2α (1/x^3 i + 1/y^3 j) 

Final answer:

A conservative force is related to the potential-energy function. In this particular context, the force exerted on an object in an xy-plane is calculated using the negative gradient of the potential energy function u(x,y) given.

Explanation:

The question presents a potential-energy function for an object moving in the xy-plane, with the function u(x,y)=α(1/x2+1/y2) where α is a positive constant. This case refers to the action of a conservative force.

A conservative force is characterized by the fact that the work done by the force is only dependent on the start and end points of the motion. In turn, this gives the freedom to define a potential energy for any conservative force. In the context of this potential-energy function, the conservative force acting on the object can be calculated from the negative gradient of the potential energy.

To express it quantitatively, given a potential energy function U(x), the force F acting on the object at a position x is given by F=-dU/dx. If we extend this to two dimensions in the xy-plane, the force F = - ∇U, where ∇ is the gradient operator.

Applying these concepts to your given potential energy function u(x,y)=α(1/x2+1/y2), the force acting on the object in the x and y directions can be calculated by differentiating this function with respect to x and y respectively, applying the opposite sign.

How is multiplying and dividing numbers in scientific notation different from adding and subtracting numbers in scientific notation?

Answers

When you multiply or divide in scientific notation, you just add or subtract the exponents. When you add or subtract in scientific notation, you have to make the exponents the same before you can do anything else.
Final answer:

In scientific notation, multiplication involves multiplying the numbers before the exponents and adding the exponents, while division involves dividing the numbers before the exponents and subtracting the exponents. Addition and subtraction require the numbers to have the same exponent.

Explanation:

Multiplying and dividing numbers in scientific notation is different from adding and subtracting It's useful to know how to use scientific notation, especially in fields like astronomy where large numbers are common. Numbers in scientific numeration are written with one number to the left of the decimal point. For example, 500,000,000 will be expressed as 5 × 10⁸.

When we multiply two numbers in scientific notation, we multiply the numbers out front and then add the exponents. For instance, if we are multiplying (3 × 10⁵) × (2 × 10¹⁰), our answer will be 6 × 10¹⁵.

On the other hand, to divide two numbers in scientific notation, we divide the numbers out front and then subtract the exponents. For example, if we are dividing 1.2 x 10⁶ by 2 x 10³, our answer will be 0.6 x 10³ or 6 x 10².

When working with addition and subtraction in scientific notation, the numbers must have the same exponent in order for the operation to be performed.
