Answer: |81-x|<5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Temperature of an enclosure for a pet corn snake should be an average of 81° F.
Temperature in the enclosure should not vary by more than 5° F.
Let x= Temperature in the enclosure
Then, difference between average and current temperature should less the 5.
i.e. |81-x|<5 (required absolute value equation )
hence, the absolute value equation could be used to determine the minimum and maximum temperatures recommended for the corn snake enclosure:
|81-x|<5
5/6 can be simplified to 0.83. 10.83*18=194.94 square feet. 1,800 minus 194.94 is 1605.06 more square feet required
<u>Solution-
</u>
A researcher placed a petri dish with 32,000 bacterial cells. One hour after being placed in the vacuum chamber, the number of cells in the petri dish had halved. Another hour later, the number of cells had again halved.
This can be represented as exponential decreasing function,

Where,
-
a = starting amount = 32000
- r = rate = 50% = 0.5 as the sample becomes halved in each hour
- x = hours
Putting the values,


y-intercept means, where x=0, so

The coordinate of this poin will be (0, 32000)
This means when x=0 or at the starting of the research, the number of bacteria cells was 32000.
After 3 hours, number of bacteria cells will be,



The coordinate of this point will be (3, 4000)
The complete problem wants to know the more cost-effective choice is the printing company replaces its press machine every four years.
With this in mind, if they choose Company A, the total amount that needs to be paid to cover 12(4) = 48 months will be
Company A = 9 500 + 48(750) = $13 100
As for Company B, the highest probability of not having any repairs over the four years is 0.32 while there's 0.14 chance that number of repairs will be 3 over the time the contract is applied.
This means that the possible amounts to be paid to Company B are
Company B = 10 500 + 0(150) = $10 500
Company B = 10 500 + 1(150) = $10 650
Company B = 10 500 + 2(150) = $10 800
Company B = 10 500 + 3(150) = $10 950
This shows that choosing the machine from Company B would be better.
Hence, the answer is Company B<span>.</span>
Answer:
y2 = m(x2-x1)+y1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the formula for finding the slope of a linear equation to be;
m = y2-y1/x2-x1 where x and y are from the ordered pairs (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
To get the equivalent equation for y2, we will make y2 the subject of tbw formula from the equation as shown:
m = y2-y1/x2-x1
Cross multiplying
m(x2-x1) = y2-y1
mx2-mx1 = y2-y1
Adding y1 to both sides of the equation we have;
mx2-mx1 + y1= y2-y1+y1
y2 = mx2-mx1 + y1
y2 = m(x2-x1)+y1
This gives the resulting equation to solve for y2
