Find y when x=14 if y varies inversely as x and y=5 when x=8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: y = k/x
5 = k/8
k = 5 x 8 = 40
Therefore,
y = 40/14 = 2.86

What is the absolute value of the complex number -4 - square root of 2iA) square root of 14
B) 3 square root of 2
C) 14
D) 18

Answers

The absolute value of the complex numberz=a+bi is |z|=√(a^2+b^2).

Consider the complex number z=-4-√(2)i. For this complex number a=-4 and b=-√(2).

Therefore, the absolute value of this complex number is

|z|=\sqrt{(-4)^2+(-√(2))^2}=√(16+2)=√(18)=3√(2).

Answer: correct choice is B

A) square root of 14

etc.

Keep going until you have only one number left.  That's the smallest one,
out of the entire original list.

In the example you gave, the smallest digit in the first place after the decimal point
is the '0', and choice-'C' is the only one that has it.  So choice-'C' is the least, and
you don't need to go any farther.

Here's another one to practice on.  It needs the whole procedure that I wrote out,
but now it should be easy for you:

0.1234095
0.1234017

C, because if you look at the 10ths place you want the lowest number- and so 0 is the least so that's the lowest number ! 

Please help asap its due in one minuteLarry’s Landscaping charges $235 for spring cleanups and $30 for weekly lawn maintenance. Joe’s Landscaping charges $185 for spring cleanups and $35 for weekly lawn maintenance. The system that models this situation is given, where c is the cost of lawn maintenance and w is the number of weeks.
c = 235 + 30w
c = 185 + 35w
The solution to the system is (10, 535).
Which interpretation correctly describes the solution to the system of equations?
a. Larry’s Landscaping will charge more money on the tenth week by charging $535.
b. Joe’s Landscaping will charge more money on the tenth week by charging $535.
c. The cost for lawn maintenance is the same, $535, for both landscaping companies after 10 wk.
d. A customer can have his or her lawn maintained for a maximum of 10 wk. The customer will pay a total of $535.

Answers

The first thing you would do is substitute the 10 in for 'w' and 535 in for 'c'. 
535 = 235 + 30(10)
535 = 185 + 35(10)
Then, you would just solve the equations.
535 = 235 + 30(10)
30(10) = 300
300 + 235 = 535 
So the first equation is true, and we know for a fact that Larry's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks.
On to the next equation.
535 = 185 + 35(10)
35(10) = 350
185 + 350 = 535
So, the second equation is true also. And we also know for a fact that Joe's Landscaping charges $535 for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance for 10 weeks. 
So, now that we know that they will end up charging the same amount of money for a spring cleaning and weekly yard maintenance, the only answer that fits that is C. The cost for lawn maintenance is the same, $535, for both landscaping companies after 10 weeks.
Hope this helps!

535 for both in ten weeks sorry if I am lake took a while to think.
