If y varies directly with x and x=4 when, y=20, find k, the constant of variation.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Direct variation means [ y = k x ]

Given . . . 20 = k 4

k = 20/4 = 5 .

What are the domain and range of the function f(x) = 3^x + 5

Answers

Answer:

Hence,

Domain: (-∞,∞)

Range: (5,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of the function is the possible set of values at which the function is defined.

and the range of the function is the corresponding function values at the points of the domain.

e are given a function f(x) as:

f(x)=3^x+5

Clearly the function 3^x is defined for all the real values.

Hence, the function:

f(x)=3^x+5 is defined for all the real numbers.

Hence the domain of the function is: (-∞,∞) i.e. all of the real line.

Also we know that:

3^x>0 for all x.

Hence,

3^x+5>5 for all x.

Hence, the range of the function is:

(5,∞).

Hence,

Domain: (-∞,∞)

Range: (5,∞)

The range is y values and domain is x values 

y intercept here is 5 and since the function is increasing thus the range would be all real values bigger than or equal to 5 

And the domain would be all real numbers.

One person can do a certain job in ten minutes, and another person can do the same job in fifteen minutes. How many minutes will they take to do the job together?If x represents how many minutes to do the job together, then how much of the job does the slowest person do?

Answers

Answer:

They will take 6 minutes to do the job together.

Slowest person do 2/5 of the total work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Time taken by first person = 10 minutes,

⇒ One day work of the first person = (1)/(10),

While, time taken by second person = 15 minutes,

⇒ One day work of second person = (1)/(15),

So, when both persons work together, total one day work =  (1)/(10)+(1)/(15),

=(3+2)/(30)

=(5)/(30)=(1)/(6)

Thus, the total time taken by the both persons when they work together,

x =(1)/((1)/(6)) = 6 minutes

The one who takes more time is slower.

Now, the part of the work done by the slowest person ( second one),

=\frac{\text{One day work of slowest person}}{\text{Total one day work}}

=(1/15)/(1/6)

=(2)/(5)

One person can do the job in 10 minutes 

So he can do 1/10th of the job in 1 minute 

Similarly another person can do 1/15th of the job in 1 minute 

Together they can do in 1 minute = 1/10 +1/15 = 5/30 = 1/6th of the job 

So together they can finish the job in 6 minutes. ANSWER 

slowest person does x/ 15 th of the job ANSWER 

1/6 +1/2 +1/3 = 7/6 

together they can do the job in 6/7 days

162 is what percent of 200

Answers

In order to find out what percentage of 200 162 is, we just need to divide 162 by 200.

162 / 200 = 0.81

To transform the decimal to a percentage, we just need to multiply it by 100.

0.81 * 100 = 81

162 is 81% of 200.
Hope that helped =)

Answer:

81%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that 200 equals 100% -because it's the output value of the task

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 100% equals 200,so we can write it down as 100%=200

4.  We know, that x% equals 162 of the output value, so we can write it down as x% =162

5. Now we have two simple equations

1) 100%=200

2) x%=162

where the left sides of both of them have the same units, and both of the right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

100%/x%=200/162

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. the solution for 162 is what percent of 200

100%/x%=200/162

(100/x)*x=(200/162)*x  -we multiply both sides of the equation by x

100=1.234567890123*x  -we divide both sides of the equation by (1.234567890123) to get x

81%=x

x=81%

now we have:

162 is 81% of 200

hope this helps!

Carl's Candies has determined that a candy bar measuring 3 inches long has a z-score of +1 and a candy bar measuring 3.75 inches long has a z-score of +2. What is the standard deviation of the length of candy bars produced at Carl's Candies?

Answers

Answer:

0.75 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The value that has z=2 is 2 standard deviations from the mean. The value that has z=1 is 1 standard deviation from the mean. The difference between these two values is 1 standard deviation:

1 standard deviation = 3.75 in - 3 in = 0.75 in

Answer:

0.75
