Answer: Hence, his evening sales were $630.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sales in the morning be 'x'

Let the sales in afternoon be x+50

Let the sales in the evening be 3(x+50).

Total sales for the day = $1000

According to question, it becomes

$x+x+50+3(x+50)=1000\\\\2x+50+3x+150=1000\\\\5x+200=1000\\\\5x=1000-200=800\\\\x=\dfrac{800}{5}\\\\x=160$

So, his evening sales would be

$3(x+50)\\\\=3(160+50)\\\\=3\times 210\\\\=630$

Hence, his evening sales were $630.

Let his morning sakes be $m, then afternoon sales were m+50, and his evening sales were 3m+150.
Total sales=m+m+50+3m+150=1000.
5m=1000-200=800, so m=800/5=$160. His evening sales were 3(160+50)=3×210=$630.

A sailor is looking at a kite. If he is looking at the kite at an angle of elevation of 36and the distance from the boat to the

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Height of the kite from the ground is 29.2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

For better explanation of the solution, see the figure attached :

The angle formed by the height of kite to that of the surface of the ground is right angle.

⇒ m∠ABC = 90°

Let angle of elevation be θ

Now, to find height of the kite : find length of AB

In right angled triangle ABC , using tan rule, we have $\tan\theta=\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\\\tan36^{\circ}=\frac{AB}{BC}\\\\\implies \tan36^{\circ}=\frac{AB}{40}\\\\\implies AB=0.73\times 40\\\\\bf\implies AB=29.2\thinspace{ feet}$

Hence, Height of the kite from the ground is 29.2 feet.

Consider the product (x + y + z)2. If the expression is multiplied out and like terms collected, the result is: x2 + y2 + z2 + 2

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Part a: The coefficient of $v^9w^2x^5y^7z^2$ is $1.766 \times 10^{13}$

Part b: The number of terms are 23751.

Step-by-step explanation:

part a

From the given equation the

$(x+y+z)^2=x^2+y^2+z^2+2xy+2yz+2zx$

So the coefficient of any term $x^ny^nz^n$ is given as

$\dfrac{2!}{n!n!n!}$

Similarly for the generic equation of coefficient of the term $x_1^{r_1}x_2^{r_2}x_3^{r_3}......x_k^{r_k}$ in the equation of form $(x_1+x_2+x_3+x_4......x_k)^n$ is given as

$\dfrac{n!}{r_1!r_2!r_3!....r_k!}$

So now the coefficient of $v^9w^2x^5y^7z^2$ is given as

$=\dfrac{25!}{9!2!5!7!2!}\\=1.766 \times 10^{13}$

The coefficient of $v^9w^2x^5y^7z^2$ is $1.766 \times 10^{13}$

Part b:

The number of terms is given as $\left (\ {{m+n-1} \atop {n}} \right )$

where m is the number of variables which are 5 here

n is the power which is 25 so the number of variables is given as

$\left (\ {{5+25-1} \atop {25}} \right )\\\left (\ {{29} \atop {25}} \right )\\\dfrac{29!}{25!4!}=23751$

So the number of terms are 23751.

4. Suppose that Peculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply thr

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Peculiar purples would be more abundant

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that eculiar Purples and Outrageous Oranges are two different and unusual types of bacteria. Both types multiply through a mechanism in which each single bacterial cell splits into four. Time taken for one split is 12 m for I one and 10 minutes for 2nd

The function representing would be

i) $P=P_0 (4)^{t/12}$ for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) $P=P_0 (4)^{t/10}$ for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

a) Here P0 =3, time t = 60 minutes.

i) I bacteria P = $3(4)^{5} =3072$

ii) II bacteria P = $3(4)^{4} =768$

b) Since II is multiplying more we find that I type will be more abundant.

The difference in two hours would be

$3(4)^{10}- 3(4)^{8} =2949120$

c) i) $P=P_0 (4)^{t/12}$ for I bacteria where t is no of minutes from start.

ii) $P=P_0 (4)^{t/10}$ for II bacteria where t is no of minutes from start. P0 is the initial count of bacteria.

d) At time 36 minutes we have t = 36

Peculiar purples would be

$i) P=3 (4)^{36/12}=192$

The rate may not be constant for a longer time. Hence this may not be accurate.

e) when splits into 2, we get

$P=P_o (2^t)$ where P0 is initial and t = interval of time
