A passenger and a freight train start toward each other at the same time from
two points 300 miles apart. If the rate of the passenger train exceeds the rate
of the freight train by 15 miles per hour, and they meet after 4 hours, what
must the rate of each be?

Answers

Answer 1

The rate of the passenger train must be 45 miles per hour, and the rate of the freight train must be 30 miles per hour.

Let's denote the rate of the passenger train as "P" and the rate of the freight train as "F". We are given that the passenger train's rate exceeds the freight train's rate by 15 miles per hour. Therefore, we can write the following equation:

P = F + 15

We are also given that the two trains start from points that are 300 miles apart and meet after 4 hours. We can use the formula distance = rate × time to set up two equations:

Distance covered by the passenger train: P × 4

Distance covered by the freight train: F × 4

Since they meet each other, the sum of their distances should add up to 300 miles:

P × 4 + F × 4 = 300

Substituting P = F + 15 into the equation, we can solve for F:

(F + 15) × 4 + F × 4 = 300

4F + 60 + 4F = 300

8F = 240

F = 30

Now that we have the rate of the freight train, we can substitute it back into the equation P = F + 15 to find the rate of the passenger train:

P = 30 + 15

P = 45

Therefore, the rate of the passenger train must be 45 miles per hour, and the rate of the freight train must be 30 miles per hour.

Jack manages a café. Each day he buys watermelons and mangoes in the (respective) ratio of 3:2. If on one day he buys 200 mangoes how many water melons would he have bought?

Answers

Answer:

300 watermelons

Step-by-step explanation:

3:2 ratio

3 is water melons and 2 is mangoes.

200 mangoes were purchased.

200/2=100

The unit rate is 100, so multiply 3 by 100, which is 300.

So Jack bought 300 watermelons, and 298 of which will be devoured by yours truly.

Express the following in the form a +bi, where a and b are real numbers:
[tex] \sqrt{24 + 10i} [/tex]

Answers

Answer:   5+i

Another accepted answer is -5-i, but if your teacher wants only one answer, then I'd go for 5+i

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

Work Shown:

[tex]\sqrt{24+10i} = a+bi\\\\\left(\sqrt{24+10i}\right)^2 = (a+bi)^2\\\\24+10i = a^2+2abi+b^2i^2\\\\24+10i = a^2+2abi+b^2(-1)\\\\24+10i = a^2+2abi-b^2\\\\24+10i = (a^2-b^2)+(2ab)i\\\\[/tex]

Equating terms, we have this system

[tex]\begin{cases}24 = a^2-b^2\ \text{.... real terms}\\10 = 2ab\ \text{.... imaginary terms}\end{cases}[/tex]

Solve the second equation for b to get b = 5/a

Plug that into the first equation to solve for 'a'

[tex]24 = a^2-b^2\\\\24 = a^2-\left(\frac{5}{a}\right)^2\\\\24 = a^2-\frac{25}{a^2}\\\\24a^2 = a^4-25\\\\0 = a^4-24a^2-25\\\\a^4-24a^2-25 = 0\\\\(a^2-25)(a^2+1) = 0\\\\(a-5)(a+5)(a^2+1) = 0\\\\[/tex]

Setting each factor equal to zero would lead to...

a-5 = 0 solves to a = 5a+5 = 0 solves to a = -5a^2+1 = 0 solves to a = i and a = -i

We're told that 'a' is a real number, so we ignore the solutions "a = i and a = -i". The only possible solutions are a = 5 and a = -5

If a = 5, then,

b = 5/a = 5/5 = 1

So

[tex]\sqrt{24+10i} = a+bi = 5+1i = 5+i[/tex]

or in short,

[tex]\sqrt{24+10i} = 5+i[/tex]

-----------------

If a = -5, then b = 5/a = 5/(-5) = -1

So it's very possible that we could also say

[tex]\sqrt{24+10i} = -5-i\\\\[/tex]

If you wanted to combine the two we would use the plus/minus notation like so

[tex]\sqrt{24+10i} = \pm(5+i)\\\\[/tex]

This is due to (5+i)^2 and (-5-i)^2 both having the same result of 24+10i. Hence the plus/minus. If your teacher wants one answer only, then I'd go for 5+i, as we could consider it a "principal" square root in a sense.

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{x = -1}[/tex]

We can solve by multiplying each term to get a common denominator:

[tex]\frac{1}{x - 4} + \frac{x}{x - 2} = \frac{2}{x^2-6x+8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x -2}{(x - 4)(x - 2)} + \frac{x(x - 4)}{(x - 2)(x - 4)} = \frac{2}{x^2-6x+8}[/tex]

Since the denominators are all the same (x² - 6x + 8 factors to (x - 2)(x - 4)), we can ignore them temporarily and solve the numerator:

x - 2 + x(x - 4) = 2

Simplify:

x - 2 + x² - 4x = 2

x² - 3x - 4 = 0

Factor:

(x - 4)(x + 1) = 0

x = -1, 4

For the values of x to be a solution, they cannot cause the denominator to be equal to 0, so:

(x - 2)(x - 4) = 0

x = 2, 4. These values result in a denominator of 0, which is undefined.

Thus, the only solution is x = -1.

Answer:

[tex](g + f)(2) = \sqrt 3 - 3[/tex]

[tex](\frac{f}{g})(-1) = 0[/tex]

[tex](g + f)(-1) = \sqrt{15}[/tex]

[tex](g * f)(2) = -3\sqrt 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) =1 - x^2[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = \sqrt{11 - 4x[/tex]

See attachment

Solving (a): (g + f)(2)

This is calculated as:

[tex](g + f)(2) = g(2) + f(2)[/tex]

Calculate g(2) and f(2)

[tex]g(2) \to \sqrt{11 - 4 * 2} = \sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 1 - 2^2 = -3[/tex]

So:

[tex](g + f)(2) = g(2) + f(2)[/tex]

[tex](g + f)(2) = \sqrt 3 - 3[/tex]

Solving (b): [tex](\frac{f}{g})(-1)[/tex]

This is calculated as:

[tex](\frac{f}{g})(-1) = \frac{f(-1)}{g(-1)}[/tex]

Calculate f(-1) and g(-1)

[tex]f(-1) = 1 - (-1)^2 = 0[/tex]

So:

[tex](\frac{f}{g})(-1) = \frac{f(-1)}{g(-1)}[/tex]

[tex](\frac{f}{g})(-1) = \frac{0}{g(-1)}[/tex]

[tex](\frac{f}{g})(-1) = 0[/tex]

Solving (c): (g - f)(-1)

This is calculated as:

[tex](g + f)(-1) = g(-1) - f(-1)[/tex]

Calculate g(-1) and f(-1)

[tex]g(-1) = \sqrt{11 - 4 * -1} = \sqrt{15}[/tex]

[tex]f(-1) = 1 - (-1)^2 = 0[/tex]

So:

[tex](g + f)(-1) = g(-1) - f(-1)[/tex]

[tex](g + f)(-1) = \sqrt{15} - 0[/tex]

[tex](g + f)(-1) = \sqrt{15}[/tex]

Solving (d): (g * f)(2)

This is calculated as:

[tex](g * f)(2) = g(2) * f(2)[/tex]

Calculate g(2) and f(2)

[tex]g(2) \to \sqrt{11 - 4 * 2} = \sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 1 - 2^2 = -3[/tex]

So:

[tex](g * f)(2) = g(2) * f(2)[/tex]

[tex](g * f)(2) = \sqrt 3 * -3[/tex]

[tex](g * f)(2) = -3\sqrt 3[/tex]

Element X is a radioactive isotope such that every 13 years, its mass decreases by half. Given that the initial mass of a sample of Element X is 90 grams, how long would it be until the mass of the sample reached 62 grams, to the nearest tenth of a year?

Answers

Answer:

The mass of Element X will reach 62 grams in 7.0 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the time of decay of Element X by using the exponential decay equation:

[tex] \frac{dm}{dt} = -\lambda t [/tex]

The solution of the above equation is:

[tex]m_{(t)} = m_{0}e^{-\lambda t}[/tex]     (1)

Where:  

t: is the time =?

λ: is the decay constant                                                                                        

[tex]m_{(t)}[/tex]: is the mass at time t = 62 grams

[tex]m_{0}[/tex]: is the initial mass = 90 grams

First, we need to calculate λ

[tex] \lambda = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}} [/tex]   (2)    

Where [tex]t_{1/2}[/tex] is the half-life = 13 years

By entering equation (2) into (1) and solving for "t" we have:

[tex]\frac{m_{(t)}}{m_{0}} = e^{-\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}*t}[/tex]    

[tex]ln(\frac{m_{(t)}}{m_{0}}) = -\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}*t[/tex]      

[tex]t = -ln(\frac{m_{(t)}}{m_{0}})(\frac{t_{1/2}}{ln(2)}) = -ln(\frac{62}{90})(\frac{13}{ln(2)}) = 7.0 y[/tex]  

Therefore, the mass of Element X will reach 62 grams in 7.0 years.
