Answer:

It is not possible for Janet to have won 10 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of games Janet won.

We know that Nadia has won twice the number of games Janet has and the sum of the games Nadia and Janet have won together is 24.

Then, we express this situation with this equation:

So, let's check if it is possible for Janet to have won 10 games. Substitute  into the expression:

Therefore, it is not possible for Janet to have won 10 games.

An apartment complex on Ferenginar with 250 units currently has 223 occupants. The current rent for a unit is 892 slips of Gold-
Triss [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total units = 250

Current occupants = 223

Rent per unit = 892 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

Current rent = 892 x 223 =198,916 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

After increase in the rent, then the rent function becomes

Let us conside 'y' is increased in amount of rent

Then occupants left will be [223 - y]

Rent = [892 + 2y][223 - y] = R[y]

To maximize rent =

\frac{dR}{dy}=0\\=2(223-y)-(892+2y)=0\\=446-2y-892-2y=0\\=-446-4y=0\\y=\frac{-446}{4}=-111.5

Since 'y' comes in negative, the owner must decrease his rent to maximixe profit.

Since there are only 250 units available;

y=-250+223=-27\\\\maximum \,profit =[892+2(-27)][223+27]\\=838 * 250\\=838\,for\,250\,units

Optimal rent - 838 slips of Gold-Pressed latinum

Find the measures of the three angles, in radians, of the triangle with the given vertices: d(1,1,1), e(1,−5,2), and f(−2,2,7).
Oduvanchick [21]

Consider triangle DEF with vertices D(1,1,1), E(1,-5,2) and F(-2,2,7).

1. Find

\overrightarrow{DE}=(1-1,-5-1,2-1)=(0,-6,1),\\ \\\overrightarrow{DF}=(-2-1,2-1,7-1)=(-3,1,6).

Then

\cos \angle D=\dfrac{0\cdot (-3)+(-6)\cdot 1+1\cdot 6}{\sqrt{0^2+(-6)^2+1^2}\cdot \sqrt{(-3)^2+1^2+6^2}}=\dfrac{0}{\sqrt{37} \cdot \sqrt{46} }=0.

2. Find

\overrightarrow{ED}=(1-1,1-(-5),1-2)=(0,6,-1),\\ \\\overrightarrow{EF}=(-2-1,2-(-5),7-2)=(-3,7,5).

Then

\cos \angle E=\dfrac{0\cdot (-2)+6\cdot 7+(-1)\cdot 5}{\sqrt{0^2+6^2+(-1)^2}\cdot \sqrt{(-3)^2+7^2+5^2}}=\dfrac{37}{\sqrt{37} \cdot \sqrt{83} }=\sqrt{\dfrac{37}{83}}.

3. Find

\overrightarrow{FE}=(1-(-2),-5-2,2-7)=(3,-7,-5),\\ \\\overrightarrow{FD}=(1-(-2),1-2,1-7)=(3,-1,-6).

Then

\cos \angle F=\dfrac{3\cdot 3+(-7)\cdot (-1)+(-5)\cdot (-6)}{\sqrt{3^2+(-7)^2+(-5)^2}\cdot \sqrt{3^2+(-1)^2+(-6)^2}}=\dfrac{46}{\sqrt{83} \cdot \sqrt{46} }=\sqrt{\dfrac{46}{83}}.

4.

\angle E=\arccos0=\dfrac{\pi}{2},\\ \\
\angle D=\arccos\letf(\sqrt{\dfrac{37}{83}}\right)\approx 0.27\pi,\\ \\
\angle F=\arccos\letf(\sqrt{\dfrac{46}{83}}\right)\approx 0.23\pi.

An investment of P dollars increased to A dollars in t years. If interest was compounded continuously, find the interest rate. (
Gemiola [76]

Answer: the interest rate is 6%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuously compounded interest is

A = P x e (r x t)

Where

A represents the future value of the investment after t years.

P represents the present value or initial amount invested

r represents the interest rate

t represents the time in years for which the investment was made.

e is the mathematical constant approximated as 2.7183.

From the information given,

A = $4482

P = 1000

t = 25 years

Therefore,

4482 = 1000 x 2.7183^(r x 25)

4482/1000 = 2.7183^25r

4.482 = 2.7183^25r

Taking ln of both sides, it becomes

Ln 4.482 = 25rLn2.7183

1.5 = 25r

r = 1.5/25 = 0.06

r = 0.06 × 100 = 6%
