A textbook store sold a combined total of 272 biology and math textbooks in a week. The number of math textbooks sold was 50 less than the number of biology textbooks sold. How many textbooks of each type were sold? Number of biology textbooks sold: number of math textbooks sold:

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b = 161, m = 111

Step-by-step explanation:

b + m = 272

m + 50 = b

Substitute

m + 50 + m = 272

2m = 222

m = 111

Plug in for m

b + 111 = 272

b = 161

f(x)=x^2-7 and h(x)=7x-5, then f(h(2))= ?

Answers

Answer:    74

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

Work Shown:

h(x) = 7x-5

h(2) = 7(2)-5

h(2) = 14-5

h(2) = 9

f(h(2)) = f(9)

f(x) = x^2-7

f(9) = 9^2-7

f(9) = 81-7

f(9) = 74

f(h(2)) = 74

-----------

Here's a slightly alternative approach:

f(x) = x^2 - 7

f(h(x)) = ( h(x) )^2 - 7

f(h(x)) = ( 7x-5 )^2 - 7

f(h(2)) = ( 7*2-5 )^2 - 7

f(h(2)) = ( 14-5 )^2 - 7

f(h(2)) = ( 9 )^2 - 7

f(h(2)) = 81 - 7

f(h(2)) = 74

Step-by-step explanation:

the general line equation format is

y = ax + b

a is the slope or gradient of the line. it is the ratio of "y coordinate change / x coordinate change".

b is the y-intercept, the y value when x = 0. we get this by putting one point into the equation and solve for b.

(i)

A (3, 5)

B (5, 9)

x changes by +2 (from 3 to 5).

y changes by +4 (from 5 to 9).

so, the slope (or gradient) is +4/+2 = 2

(ii)

the semi-finished equation is

y = 2x + b

let's use A to get b :

5 = 2×3 + b = 6 + b

b = -1

and the full equation is

y = 2x - 1

(iii)

for point (4, k) we get

k = 2×4 - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7

Answer:

D: A rectangle and an isosceles triangle​

Step-by-step explanation:

A recangle for the base of the arrow, and an isosceles triangle​ to form the full arrow.

The answer will be option D which is a rectangle and an isosceles triangle.

What is an isosceles triangle?

The triangle in which the two opposite sides are equal and the two opposite angles are equal is called the isosceles triangle.

As we can see in the figure there are one isosceles triangle and a rectangle are joined together to form an arrow.

Thus the answer will be option D which is a rectangle and an isosceles triangle.

b. The oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is 33 years

c. American bison are never over 6 feet tall.

Answers

Counterexamples are simply used to disprove conjectures.

(a) Elephants and Giraffes

This conjecture may or may not be true.

However, it can be disproved by the following counterexample

There are sometimes more elephants in a zoo than giraffes

The word "sometimes" disproves the original conjecture

(b) The oldest leatherback sea turtle

This conjecture is not true.

This is so because the oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is actually 400 years old.

So, the conjecture can be disproved by the following counterexample

The oldest leatherback sea turtle in captivity is 400 years old.

(c) American bison

This conjecture may or may not be true.

However, it can be disproved by the following counterexample

American bison are sometimes over 6 feet tall

The word "sometimes" disproves the original conjecture

Answers

Answer:

$10.12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the cost of binoculars is $155.75

and also the sales tax is 7%

Step two:

We want to first solve for the sales tax which is 7% of  $155.75

=7/100* 155.75

=0.070*155.75

=10.12

Cassie will pay a tax of $10.12

Also Cassie will pay a total amount of

that is subtracted and the other does not. Do
you agree? Explain.
a

Answers

Answer:

they are the same

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 2x + 4 ← collect like terms

= 4x + 4

and

4(x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis by 4

= 4x + 4

The 2 expressions are equivalent to 4x + 4

Answer:

No, Jamie is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

No, because in the expression 4(x+1)  you will first need to multiply 4 by x, your result is 4x, and then you multiply 4 by 1, you get 4, so the answer will be 4x+4.

Also in the expression 6x-2x+4  ,you will first need to subtract 2x from  6x, your result is 4x ,and then you add 4 , so the answer will be 4x + 4

Our final answer is:

6x-2x+4 = 4x + 4 and 4(x+1) = 4x + 4

How to find the inverse of 3log3(x+3)+1. Its with a base of 3

Answers

Let [tex]f^{-1}(x)[/tex] be the inverse of

[tex]f(x) = 3 \log_3 (x + 3) + 1[/tex]

Then by definition of inverse function,

[tex]f\left( f^{-1}(x) \right) = 3 \log_3 \left(f^{-1}(x) + 3\right) + 1 = x[/tex]

Solve for the inverse :

[tex]3 \log_3 \left(f^{-1}(x) + 3\right) + 1 = x[/tex]

[tex]3 \log_3 \left(f^{-1}(x) + 3\right) = x - 1[/tex]

[tex]\log_3 \left(f^{-1}(x) + 3\right) = \dfrac{x - 1}3[/tex]

[tex]3^{\log_3 \left(f^{-1}(x) + 3\right)} = 3^{\frac{x-1}3}[/tex]

[tex]f^{-1}(x) + 3 = 3^{\frac{x-1}3}[/tex]

The standard form of a linear equation is   A x + By = C.

Simplify -2(x - 8)

Multiply -2 by -8

2x + y - 10 = 16

Add 10 to both sides.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{(0, 0), (\sqrt{6}, -12-3\sqrt{6}), (-\sqrt{6}, -12+3\sqrt{6})}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Take the derivative of the function with respect to x

[tex]\frac{d}{dx} (\frac{1}{3}x^4-4x^2-3x)\\=\frac{d}{dx} (\frac{1}{3}x^4)-\frac{d}{dx}(4x^2)-\frac{d}{dx}(3x)\\=\frac{4}{3}x^3-8x-3[/tex]

Now, you have the gradient of every point given the x value. We want the gradient to be -3, so,

Step 2: Set the derivative of the function equal to -3 and solve for x

[tex]\frac{4}{3}x^3-8x-3=-3\\\frac{4}{3}x^3-8x=0\\4x(\frac{1}{3}x^2-2)=0\\[/tex]

We can see that one solution is x=0.

The other 2 solutions are:

[tex]\frac{1}{3}x^2-2=0\\\frac{1}{3}x^2=2\\x^2=6\\x=\sqrt{6}, x=-\sqrt{6}[/tex]

Now that we found out the x value, we can plug it in back to the equation to find their respective y value:

x=0: y=0

x=sqrt(6): y=-12-3sqrt(6)

x=-sqrt(6): y=-12+3sqrt(6)

Hence we have our answer.
