John should drive to his workplace and back to home. On the way to the workplace it was raining, so he drove at speed of 42mph.

On the way back the rain was over so his speed was 54mph. What was John's average speed, for the whole trip?
Pls help im not good with these problems Q_Q

Answer:

47.25 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the total distance traveled as 2x. Average speed= total distance/total time

When going at 42 mph, the time would be x/42 and when going at 54 mph the time would be x/54 to travel x distance. Add x/42 and x/54 together to get 16x/378. Then divide 2x by 16x/378 to get 47.25 mph. Also this is RSM innit?

Enter the values for the highlighted variables that show how to subtract the rational expressions correctly

Lina20 [59]

A = 6
x^2 + 6x is equal to x(x+6)
b=2
Denominator and numerator of the first term are multiplied by x.
c=6
Second term is multiplied by (x-6)/(x-6)
d=2
Now that they have the same denominator, the two terms are combined. 2 is the coefficient of the first term
e=6
In the same way as d is carried over from b, e is carried over from c.
f = 6
2x - x + 6 = x + 6
g = 1
We factor out the (x+6) from the numerator and denominator

Which statement follows from the given theorem? Theorem: The diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles

777dan777 [17]

Answer with explanation:

Theorem : The diagonal of a parallelogram divides it into two congruent triangles.

Properties of parallelogram

1. Opposite sides are equal and parallel.

2. Diagonal bisect each other.

3. Opposite Angles are equal.

If you will look at the first three options

A: Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect opposite angles.→→False(Alternate angles are equal)

B: Consecutive sides of a parallelogram are congruent.→→→False(Opposite sides are congruent)

C: Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are congruent.→→→False(Opposite angles are congruent)

D: Consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.→→→→True

For,any parallelogram, having vertices , A, B and C and D

Opposite sides are parallel, so

1.∠A + ∠B=180°

2.∠C + ∠B=180°

3.∠C+ ∠D=180°

4. ∠A + ∠D=180°

Option D

Q#1:The volume of a cube is 46656 cubic metres.Find the length of each side?

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To find the cube root of a number prime factorize

46656 = 2*2*2*2*2*2 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 3

$\sqrt[3]{46656}=\sqrt[3]{2*2*2*2*2*2*3*3*3*3*3*3} =2*2*3*3 = 36$

Length of each side = 36 m

Q) i) -512 = (-8) * (-8)*(-8)

-512 is a cube number

v) -17576 = (-26) * (-26)*(-26)

-17576 is cube number

Solve the recurrence relation: hn = 5hn−1 − 6hn−2 − 4hn−3 + 8hn−4 with initial values h0 = 0, h1 = 1, h2 = 1, and h3 = 2 using (

musickatia [10]

(a) Suppose $h_n=r^n$ is a solution for this recurrence, with $r\neq0$ . Then

$r^n=5r^{n-1}-6r^{n-2}-4r^{n-3}+8r^{n-4}$
$\implies1=\dfrac5r-\dfrac6{r^2}-\dfrac4{r^3}+\dfrac8{r^4}$
$\implies r^4-5r^3+6r^2+4r-8=0$
$\implies (r-2)^3(r+1)=0\implies r=2,r=-1$

So we expect a general solution of the form

$h_n=c_1(-1)^n+(c_2+c_3n+c_4n^2)2^n$

With $h_0=0,h_1=1,h_2=1,h_3=2$ , we get four equations in four unknowns:

$\begin{cases}c_1+c_2=0\\-c_1+2c_2+2c_3+2c_4=1\\c_1+4c_2+8c_3+16c_4=1\\-c_1+8c_2+24c_3+72c_4=2\end{cases}\implies c_1=-\dfrac8{27},c_2=\dfrac8{27},c_3=\dfrac7{72},c_4=-\dfrac1{24}$

So the particular solution to the recurrence is

$h_n=-\dfrac8{27}(-1)^n+\left(\dfrac8{27}+\dfrac{7n}{72}-\dfrac{n^2}{24}\right)2^n$

(b) Let $G(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge0}h_nx^n$ be the generating function for $h_n$ . Multiply both sides of the recurrence by $x^n$ and sum over all $n\ge4$ .

$\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge4}h_nx^n=5\sum_{n\ge4}h_{n-1}x^n-6\sum_{n\ge4}h_{n-2}x^n-4\sum_{n\ge4}h_{n-3}x^n+8\sum_{n\ge4}h_{n-4}x^n$
$\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge4}h_nx^n=5x\sum_{n\ge3}h_nx^n-6x^2\sum_{n\ge2}h_nx^n-4x^3\sum_{n\ge1}h_nx^n+8x^4\sum_{n\ge0}h_nx^n$
$G(x)-h_0-h_1x-h_2x^2-h_3x^3=5x(G(x)-h_0-h_1x-h_2x^2)-6x^2(G(x)-h_0-h_1x)-4x^3(G(x)-h_0)+8x^4G(x)$
$G(x)-x-x^2-2x^3=5x(G(x)-x-x^2)-6x^2(G(x)-x)-4x^3G(x)+8x^4G(x)$
$(1-5x+6x^2+4x^3-8x^4)G(x)=x-4x^2+3x^3$
$G(x)=\dfrac{x-4x^2+3x^3}{1-5x+6x^2+4x^3-8x^4}$
$G(x)=\dfrac{17}{108}\dfrac1{1-2x}+\dfrac29\dfrac1{(1-2x)^2}-\dfrac1{12}\dfrac1{(1-2x)^3}-\dfrac8{27}\dfrac1{1+x}$

From here you would write each term as a power series (easy enough, since they're all geometric or derived from a geometric series), combine the series into one, and the solution to the recurrence will be the coefficient of $x^n$ , ideally matching the solution found in part (a).
