It is to be noted that for this item, we more concern of the pounds of flour. The number of batches is calculated by dividing the total mass of flour used by the amount per batch. That is,
                                              n = 86 lbs / (1 + 5/8 lbs/batch)
                                              n = 52.92 batch
Thus, the chef makes approximately 53 batches of pasta.

What is the difference between factoring and solving ?
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Factoring is a step taken towards solving a quadratic equation. ... You cannot factor them, the only way to find the roots then, is by using the quadratic formula. Suppose you factor the quadratic polynomial as and . Then set them equal to zero and solve for , you will have

Step-by-step explanation.

Example 1 – Solve: x2 + 16 = 10x

Step 1: Write the equation in the correct form. In this case, we need to set the equation equal to zero with the terms written in descending order.

Step 2: Use a factoring strategies to factor the problem.

Step 3: Use the Zero Product Property and set each factor containing a variable equal to zero.

Step 4: Solve each factor that was set equal to zero by getting the x on one side and the answer on the other side.

Traffic speed: The mean speed for a sample of cars at a certain intersection was kilometers per hour with a standard deviation o
aliina [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

X₁: speed of a motorcycle at a certain intersection.

n₁= 135

X[bar]₁= 33.99 km/h

S₁= 4.02 km/h

X₂: speed of a car at a certain intersection.

n₂= 42 cars

X[bar]₂= 26.56 km/h

S₂= 2.45 km/h

Assuming

X₁~N(μ₁; σ₁²)

X₂~N(μ₂; σ₂²)

and σ₁² = σ₂²

<em>A 90% confidence interval for the difference between the mean speeds, in kilometers per hour, of motorcycles and cars at this intersection is ________.</em>

The parameter of interest is μ₁-μ₂

(X[bar]₁-X[bar]₂)±t_{n_1+n_2-2} * Sa\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} }

t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{175; 0.95}= 1.654

Sa= \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2} } = \sqrt{\frac{134*16.1604+41*6.0025}{135+42-2} } = 3.71

[(33.99-26.56) ± 1.654 *(3.71*\sqrt{\frac{1}{135} +\frac{1}{42} })]

[6.345; 8.514]= [6.35; 8.51]km/h

<em>Construct the 98% confidence interval for the difference μ₁-μ₂ when X[bar]₁= 475.12, S₁= 43.48, X[bar]₂= 321.34, S₂= 21.60, n₁= 12, n₂= 15</em>

t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{25; 0.99}= 2.485

Sa= \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2} } = \sqrt{\frac{11*(43.48)^2+14*(21.60)^2}{12+15-2} } = 33.06

[(475.12-321.34) ± 2.485 *(33.06*\sqrt{\frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{15} })]

[121.96; 185.60]

A rain gutter is to be constructed of aluminum sheets 12 inches wide. After marking off a length of 4 inches from each edge, thi
marysya [2.9K]
For this problem, I think there is no need for the details of 12 inches width and 4 inches length. This is because an equation is already given. It was clearly specified that A as a function of θ represents the area of the opening. Then, we are asked to find exactly that: the area of opening. Moreover, the value of θ was also given. Therefore, I am quite sure that the initial details given are for the purpose of red herring only.

So, all we have to do is substitute θ=45° to the function given. 
A = 16 sin 45° ⋅ (cos 45° + 1)

The angle 45° is a special angle in trigonometry. So, it would be easy to remember trigonometric functions of this angle. Sine of 45° is equal to √2/2 while cosine of 45° is also √2/2.

A = 16(√2/2) ⋅ (√2/2 + 1)
A = 8+8√2
A = 19.31 square inches

The indicated function y1(x) is a solution of the associated homogeneous equation. Use the method of reduction of order to find
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

y2 = (6x + 7)/36 + (Dx + E)e^x

Step-by-step explanation:

The method of reduction of order is applicable for second-order differential equations.

For a known solution y1 of a 2nd order differential equation, this method assumes a second solution in the form Uy1 which satisfies the said differential equation. It then assumes a reduced order for U'' (w' = U'').

The differential equation becomes easy to solve, and all that is left are integration and substitutions.
