A. The average yearly salary of a lawyer is $24 thousand less than twice that of an architect.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The average yearly salary of the architect is $62,000 and the lawyer is $100,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The average yearly salary of a lawyer is $24 thousand less than twice that of an architect.

Combined, an architect and a lawyer earn $ 210 thousand.

Now, to find the average yearly salary of an architect and a lawyer.

Let the average yearly salary of an architect be $x.$

So, the average yearly salary of the lawyer = $2x-24,000.$

Combined, architect and lawyer earn = $\$210,000.$

Now, to get the average salary of the architect and lawyer:

$x+(2x-24000)=210000$

$x+2x-24000=210000\\\\3x-24000=210000$

Adding both sides 24000 we get:

$3x=186,000\\\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 3\ we\ get:\\\\x=62000.$

The average salary of architect = $62,000.

Now, to get the average salary of lawyer by substituting the value of $x$ :

$2x-24000\\\\=2(62000)-24000\\\\=124000-24000\\\\=\$100,000.$

The average salary of lawyer = $100,000.

Therefore, the average yearly salary of the architect is $62,000 and the lawyer is $100,000.

A boat tour guide expects his tour to travel at a rate of x mph on the first leg of the trip. On the return route, the boat trav

Georgia [21]

The intervals included in solution are:

$\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x}-10\ge \frac{2}{24}\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:0$

Solution:

Given that,

A boat tour guide expects his tour to travel at a rate of x mph on the first leg of the trip

On the return route, the boat travels against the current, decreasing the boat's rate by 10 mph

The group needs to travel an average of at least 24 mph

Given inequality is:

$\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x} - 10\geq \frac{2}{24}$

We have to solve the inequality

$\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x} - 10\geq \frac{2}{24}\\\\\frac{2}{x} - 10\geq \frac{2}{24}$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{2}{24}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\\frac{2}{x}-10-\frac{2}{24}\ge \frac{2}{24}-\frac{2}{24}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{2}{x}-10-\frac{2}{24}\ge \:0$

$\frac{2}{x}-\frac{10}{1}-\frac{2}{24} \geq 0\\\\\frac{ 2 \times 24}{x \times 24} -\frac{10 \times 24}{1 \times 24} - \frac{2 \times x }{24 \times x}\geq 0\\\\\frac{48}{24x}-\frac{240x}{24x}-\frac{2x}{24x}\geq 0\\\\Since\:the\:denominators\:are\:equal,\:combine\:the\:fractions\\\\\frac{48-240x-2x}{24x}\geq 0\\\\Add\:similar\:elements\\\\\frac{48-242x}{24x}\ge \:0$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}24\\\\\frac{24\left(48-242x\right)}{24x}\ge \:0\cdot \:24\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{48-242x}{x}\ge \:0\\\\Factor\ common\ terms\\\\\frac{-2\left(121x-24\right)}{x}\ge \:0\\\\\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}-1\mathrm{\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)}$

When we multiply or divide both sides by negative number, then we must flip the inequality sign

$\frac{\left(-2\left(121x-24\right)\right)\left(-1\right)}{x}\le \:0\cdot \left(-1\right)\\\\\frac{2\left(121x-24\right)}{x}\le \:0\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2\\\\\frac{\frac{2\left(121x-24\right)}{x}}{2}\le \frac{0}{2}\\\\Simplify\\\\\frac{121x-24}{x}\le \:0$

$\mathrm{Find\:the\:signs\:of\:the\:factors\:of\:}\frac{121x-24}{x}\\$

This is attached as figure below

From the attached table,

$\mathrm{Identify\:the\:intervals\:that\:satisfy\:the\:required\:condition:}\:\le \:\:0\\\\0$

Therefore, solution set is given as:

$\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x}-10\ge \frac{2}{24}\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:0$

The distribution of annual profit at a chain of stores was approximately normal with mean \mu = \$66{,}000μ=$66,000mu, equals, d

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The closest to the maximum profit is $x = \$ 83682$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mean is $\mu = \$66,000$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = \$ 21000$

The percentage of profit is 20%

Generally the closest to the maximum annual profit at a store where the executives conducted an audit is mathematically evaluated as follows

$P(X > x ) = 0.20$

=> $P(X > x ) = P(\frac{X -x}{\sigma } > \frac{x -66000}{21000} ) = 0.20$

From the z-table the z-score for 0.20 is

$z-score = 0.842$

$\frac{x -66000}{21000} = 0.842$

=> $x = \$ 83682$

A convex lens has a diameter of 30 mm and a depth of 5 mm at the center. How far from the vertex is the focus?

natima [27]

The formula for determining the distance of the focus from the vertex is as follows,

f = x² / 4a

where f is focus, x is the radius (half the value of diameter), and a is the depth. Substituting the known values to the given equation,

f = (30/2 mm)² / (4)(5 mm)

f = 11.25 mm

ANSWER: 11.25 mm
