A railroad track follows a straight path from station A to station B. What is the distance traveled by the railroad track from s

tation A to station B before completing its journey until station C? Distance travelled from station A to station C is 3x+4 and from station B to C is 6x-4.

Answer:

-3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The railroad track moves in a straight path from station A to station B and then from station B to station C.

Let the distance from station A to station C be AC and the distance from station B to station C as BC while the distance from station A to station B be AB the following equation holds:

AC = AB + BC

Given the distance from station A to station C is 3x + 4 and from station B to C is 6x-4, Hence:

AC = 3x + 4 and BC = 6x - 4.

Using the line segment addition postulate:

AC = AB + BC

3x + 4 = AB + (6x - 4)

AB = 3x + 4 - (6x - 4)

AB = 3x + 4 - 6x + 4

AB = 3x - 6x + 4 + 4

AB = -3x + 8

skad [1K]

Answer:

3876

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Fraternity members = 20

They are to attend 5 different parties in groups of 4

Meaning a group = 4 persons

Atleast one brother will attend exactly one of the parties. (the brothers are indistinguishable).

Then, exactly one brother at a party (20 - 1) = 19, since they are indistinguishable.

Group members are in 4's

19C4

From: nCr = n! /(n-r)! r!

19C4 = 19! / (19 - 4)! 4!

= 19! / 15! 4!

= (19 * 18 * 17 * 16) / (4 * 3 * 2)

= 93024 / 24

= 3876

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

4x^5\sqrt[3]{3x}

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure I understand the problem, but I think it's this:

\sqrt[3]{16x^7} \times \sqrt[3]{12x^9} =

= \sqrt[3]{16 \times 12 \times x^{16}}

= \sqrt[3]{192 \times x^{15} \times x}

= \sqrt[3]{64 \times 3 \times (x^5)^3 \times x}

= \sqrt[3]{4^3 \times 3 \times (x^5)^3 \times x}

= 4x^5\sqrt[3]{3x}

elijah's credit card statement showed these items: Last Balance Payments Finance Rate New Charges $152.58 $45.00 1.5% $213.40 Wh
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Option A,$320.98  is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The new balance on Elijah's credit is the sum of the last balance plus new charges minus payments made.

last balance as shown by the statement was $152.58

new charges were $213.40

payment made by Elijah was  $45

new balance=$152.58+$213.40-$45=$320.98

The rationale for this is that the new charges on the card account add to previous balance owed by Elijah while the payment of $45 made reduces overall balance.

The function f(x) = xπ−−√ gives the diameter, in inches, of a proposed spherical sculpture with a surface area of x square inche
natka813 [3]

Answer:

The average rate of change of f(x) = 3.14 inches⁻¹

The change in f(x) = 49.32 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the spherical sculpture = x and its diameter f(x) = πx.

The average rate of change of f(x) as x changes is df(x)/dx = π = 3.14

Now the change in diameter Δf(x) = df(x) = (df(x)/dx)dx = πdx  

dx = Δx = 28.3 in² - 12.6 in² = 15.7 in²

df(x) = π × 15.7 = 49.32 in
