The exact amount of time would be 8 2/9 weeks, but if we are only counting full weeks, it would be finished in 9 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = xm

18 1/2 = 2 1/4x  Change both numbers into improper fractions

18 1/2 would be 37/2  The denominator (bottom number) stays 2.  To get the top number you would (2 x 18) + 1 or 37.  That makes 37/2 equivalent to 18 1/2.

Now do the same thing to 2 1/4.  The bottom number stays the same.  We get the top number (4 x 2) + 1 or 9.  That makes 9/4 equivalent to 2 1/4.

We know have

37/2 = 9/4 x  We can solve for x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 4/9

37/2(4/9) = (9/4)(4/9)x

148/18 = x  If we divide both the top and the bottom by 2 we would get 74/9 = x  If we divide 74 by 9 we get 8 2/9

The first three elements of the recursive series are 6, 10, 8. (Correct choice: B)

In this question we have a kind of recursive function known as Fibonacci's function, where a value of the series is generated from at least immediately previous elements. In this case, we need to find the first three elements from the fifth and fourth elements of the series:

[tex]a_{n-2} = a_{n-1} - a_{n} + 4[/tex]

a₄ = a₅ - a₆ + 4

a₄ = - 2 - 0 + 4

a₄ = 2

a₃ = a₄ - a₅ + 4

a₃ = 2 - (- 2) + 4

a₃ = 8

a₂ = a₃ - a₄ + 4

a₂ = 8 - 2 + 4

a₂ = 10

a₁ = a₂ - a₃ + 4

a₁ = 10 - 8 + 4

a₁ = 6

Applying the angle of intersecting chords theorem, the value of z is: D. 100.

According to the angle of intersecting chords theorem, in a circle like the one shown in the image above, where two chords intersect to form vertical angles, the theorem states that the angle formed equals half of the sum of the measures of the arcs intercepted by the angles.

Applying the angle of intersecting chords theorem, let's find x first:

73 = 1/2(96 + x)

Multiply both sides by 2

2 × (73) = 1/2(96 + x) × 2

146 = 96 + x

Subtract both sides by 96

146 - 96 = 96 + x - 96

50 = x

x = 50°

Therefore:

x + z + 96 + 114 = 360° [full circle measure]

Plug in the value of x

50 + z + 96 + 114 = 360

z + 260 = 360

Subtract both sides by 260

z + 260 - 260 = 360 - 260

z = 100°

The answer is: D. 100°.

Answer:

Given:

Mass of the tennis ball=56.5 g

wavelength=5400 Angstroms

De-Broglie Wavelength = 5400 Angstrom.

= 5400 × 10⁻¹⁰ m.

Now, Using the Formula,

λ = h/mv

here,

h is the Planck's constant = 6.62 × 10⁻³⁴ J-s.

and v is the velocity of the tennis balls.

∴ 5400 × 10⁻¹⁰ = (6.62 × 10⁻³⁴)/ (0.054 × v)

⇒ 0.054v = (6.62 × 10⁻³⁴)/ (5400 × 10⁻¹⁰)

⇒ 0.054v = 0.0012 × 10⁻²⁴

⇒ v = 0.0012 × 10⁻²⁴/0.054

[tex]y=\frac{-x}{78} -\frac{220}{78}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember to create a line perpendicular to one another the slope has to be the reverse reciprocal of the first line.

Given the current slope is [tex]\frac{-78}{1}[/tex] the new slope would be [tex]\frac{1}{78}[/tex].

To find the line that passes through a point with a given slope we must use point slope form, remember the default equation of point slope form:

Answer:

Associative property of addition.

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of the parentheses makes no difference to the sum of these numbers.

The property shown in the statement "(46 + 17) + 3 = 46 + (17 + 3)" is the associative property of addition.

The associative property of addition states that when adding three or more numbers, the grouping of the numbers does not affect the sum

In the given statement, we have three numbers being added: 46, 17, and 3. The statement shows that the addition is grouped differently on each side of the equation, but the result is the same.

On the left side, we have (46 + 17) + 3.

This means we first add 46 and 17, which equals 63. Then we add 3 to the sum, resulting in 66.

On the right side, we have 46 + (17 + 3). Here, we first add 17 and 3, which equals 20. Then we add 46 to the sum, also resulting in 66.

As we can see, no matter how we group the numbers being added, the final sum is the same. This demonstrates the associative property of addition.

Therefore, the property shown in the given statement is the associative property of addition.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 meter = 100 centimeter = 1000 millimeter

therefore, 1 cm = 10 mm

4.6 m = 4.6 × 1000 = 4600 mm

88 cm = 880 mm

and so, they cut off

880 mm + 1630 mm = 2510 mm

that means

4600 - 2510 = 2090 mm = 2.09 m

are left.

I'll focus on part (b) only.

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

Explanation:

Replace the variable b with the commonly used variable x and c with some other constant, let's say the letter m. These replacements will become apparent when we use the quadratic formula shortly later on.

After the replacements are made, we have -3c²-4cb+4b²​ turn into -3m²-4mx+4x²​

This is the same as 4x²​-4mx-3m²

Compare this to the format of ax²​+bx+c

We can see that

Once again, m is constant.

Let's compute the discriminant.

[tex]d = b^2 - 4ac\\\\d = (-4m)^2-4(4)(-3m^2)\\\\d = 16m^2+48m^2\\\\d = 64m^2\\\\[/tex]

This discriminant is under the square root as part of the quadratic formula.

So 4x²​-4mx-3m² would have roots of...

[tex]x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{d}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-4m)\pm\sqrt{64m^2}}{2(4)}\\\\x = \frac{4m\pm\sqrt{(8m)^2}}{8}\\\\x = \frac{4m\pm 8m}{8}\\\\x = \frac{4(m\pm 2m)}{4*2}\\\\x = \frac{m\pm 2m}{2}\\\\x = \frac{m+ 2m}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{m-2m}{2}\\\\x = \frac{3m}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-m}{2}\\\\[/tex]

The whole time, the term "m" is treated as a constant. It is fixed to some unchanging number.

So why did we go through all that trouble to use the quadratic formula in the first place? It turns out that this formula is helpful to factoring quadratics. Recall that the roots of a polynomial tie very closely to its factorization.

For example, x²-4 factors to (x-2)(x+2) to have roots of x = 2 or x = -2. You could use the quadratic formula to solve x²-4 = 0 or x²+0x-4 = 0 and you should get x = 2 or x = -2 as the two solutions.

Anyways, back to the problem at hand.

Let's use the first root we found to form one of the factors needed.

The idea is to do a bit of algebra to get everything to one side. If fractions are present, then multiply both sides by the LCD to clear them out. We need to have 0 isolated on its own side.

[tex]x = \frac{3m}{2} \\\\ 2x = 3m\\\\ 2x-3m = 0[/tex]

So (2x-3m) is one factor

Through similar steps, you would find that the root [tex]x = \frac{-m}{2}[/tex] yields the factor of (2x+m)

Therefore, the factors are (2x-3m) and (2x+m)

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

In summary so far, 4x²​-4mx-3m² factors to (2x-3m)(2x+m)

From here we replace x with b and replace m with c, so that we return back to the original variables used.

(2x-3m)(2x+m) becomes (2b-3c)(2b+c)

This can be confirmed using WolframAlpha. You could use the FOIL rule to expand out (2b-3c)(2b+c) and you should get 4b²​-4bc-3c²​ aka -3c²-4cb+4b²​

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

Those previous sections talked about part (i)

Part (ii) is where we plug in b = 4 and c = 3. In other words, we replace every copy of b with 4, and every copy of c with 3.

If you use the original expression, then,

-3c²-4cb+4b²​ = -3(3)²-4(3)(4)+4(4)²​ = -3(9)-4(12)+4(16) = -11

Or you could use the factored expression.

(2b-3c)(2b+c) = (2*4-3*3)(2*4+3) = (8-9)(8+3) = (-1)*(11) = -11

This very partially confirms that -3c²-4cb+4b² = (2b-3c)(2b+c) is indeed the case. Unfortunately you'd have to use infinitely many numeric examples to confirm the answer to part (i); however, something like the FOIL rule is far more efficient.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your slope is your change in y over your change in x.  The ordered pair is in the form of (x,y), so you subtract the y's and put that in your numerator (top)and subtract your x's and put that in your denominators (bottom).

2 - (-4) would be your top number.  To subtract a negative number is the same as adding a positive, so 2 - (-4) is the same as 2 +4, so your top number is 6.  

Now, to find the bottom number, you subtract the x's.

5-2 which is 3.

We now have the top and the bottom number

6/3 which is the same as 2.

Answer:

(-4,0) , (0,9)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept is the point where the line touches the x-axis, which means, y = 0.

So when y = 0,

-9x + 4(0) = 36

-9x = 36

x = [tex]\frac{36}{-9}[/tex]

x = -4

Therefore, the coordinates of the x - intercept is (-4,0)

y-intercept is the point where the line touches the y-axis, which means , x = 0.

so when x = 0,

-9(0) + 4y = 36

4y = 36

y = [tex]\frac{36}{4}[/tex]

y = 9

Therefore, the coordinates of the y - intercept is (0,9)

Answer:

x - intercept (-4,0)

y -intercept (0,9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Put in 0 for x.

-9(0) + 4y = 36

4y = 36  Divide both sides by 4

y = 9

(0,9) This is where the line will cross the y axis.

Put in 0 for y

-9y + 4(0) = 36

-9y = 36 Divide both sides by -9

Y = -4
