6q + 9 ≤ 9 and 6q + 9 ≥ −9

Hello there!

6q + 9 ≤ 9

Start by subtracting 9 from both sides

6q + 9 - 9 ≤ 9 - 9

6q ≤ 0

Then divide both sides by 6

6q/6 ≤ 0/6

q ≤ 0

--------------

The second equation
6q + 9 ≥ -9

Start by subtracting 9 from both sides

6q + 9 - 9 ≥ -9 - 9

6q ≥ -18

Divide both sides by 6

6q/6 ≥ -18/6

q ≥ -3

Good luck with your studies!

If you combine both of these inequalities, you will get
-9 ≤ 6q + 9 ≤ 9

You can further simplify this be using the absolute value.
If you use the absolute value, you will get
| 6q + 9 | ≤ 9

If you're trying to solve for q, use
-9 ≤ 6q + 9 ≤ 9
Subtract all parts by 9
- 18 ≤ 6q ≤ 0
Divide all parts by 6
- 3 ≤ q ≤ 0

Have an awesome day! :)

Suppose a1=12−12,a2=23−13,a3=34−14,a4=45−15,a5=56−16. a) Find an explicit formula for an: . b) Determine whether the sequence is

lorasvet [3.4K]

I'm going to assume you meant to write fractions (because if $a_n$ are all non-negative integers, the series would clearly diverge), so that

$a_1=\dfrac12-\dfrac12$

$a_2=\dfrac23-\dfrac13$

$a_3=\dfrac34-\dfrac14$

and so on.

a. If the pattern continues as above, we would have the general term

$a_n=\dfrac n{n+1}-\dfrac1{n+1}=\dfrac{n-1}{n+1}$

b. Note that we can write $a_n$ as

$a_n=\dfrac{n-1}{n+1}=\dfrac{n+1-2}{n+1}=1-\dfrac2{n+1}$

The series diverges by comparison to the divergent series

$\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac1n$

Se the divergence theorem to calculate the surface integral s f · ds; that is, calculate the flux of f across s. f(x, y, z) = x2

pishuonlain [190]

$\mathbf f(x,y,z)=x^2\sin y\,\mathbf i+x\cos y\,\mathbf j-xz \sin y\,\mathbf k$
$\implies\nabla\cdot\mathbf f(x,y,z)=2x\sin y-x\sin y-x\sin y=0$

which means

$\displaystyle\iint_S\mathbf f(x,y,z)\,\mathrm dS=\iiint_R\nabla\cdot\mathbf f(x,y,z)\,\mathrm dV=0$

A piece of paper is to display ~128~ 128 space, 128, space square inches of text. If there are to be one-inch margins on both si

Grace [21]

Answer:

The dimensions of the smallest piece that can be used are: 10 by 20 and the area is 200 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$Area = 128$

Let the dimension of the paper be x and y;

Such that:

$Length = x$

$Width = y$

So:

$Area = x * y$

Substitute 128 for Area

$128 = x * y$

Make x the subject

$x = \frac{128}{y}$

When 1 inch margin is at top and bottom

The length becomes:

$Length = x + 1 + 1$

$Length = x + 2$

When 2 inch margin is at both sides

The width becomes:

$Width = y + 2 + 2$

$Width = y + 4$

The New Area (A) is then calculated as:

$A = (x + 2) * (y + 4)$

Substitute $\frac{128}{y}$ for x

$A = (\frac{128}{y} + 2) * (y + 4)$

Open Brackets

$A = 128 + \frac{512}{y} + 2y + 8$

Collect Like Terms

$A = \frac{512}{y} + 2y + 8+128$

$A = \frac{512}{y} + 2y + 136$

$A= 512y^{-1} + 2y + 136$

To calculate the smallest possible value of y, we have to apply calculus.

Different A with respect to y

$A' = -512y^{-2} + 2$

Set

$A' = 0$

This gives:

$0 = -512y^{-2} + 2$

Collect Like Terms

$512y^{-2} = 2$

Multiply through by $y^2$

$y^2 * 512y^{-2} = 2 * y^2$

$512 = 2y^2$

Divide through by 2

$256=y^2$

Take square roots of both sides

$\sqrt{256=y^2$

$16=y$

$y = 16$

Recall that:

$x = \frac{128}{y}$

$x = \frac{128}{16}$

$x = 8$

Recall that the new dimensions are:

$Length = x + 2$

$Width = y + 4$

So:

$Length = 8 + 2$

$Length = 10$

$Width = 16 + 4$

$Width = 20$

To double-check;

Differentiate A'

$A' = -512y^{-2} + 2$

$A" = -2 * -512y^{-3}$

$A" = 1024y^{-3}$

$A" = \frac{1024}{y^3}$

The above value is:

$A" = \frac{1024}{y^3} > 0$

This means that the calculated values are at minimum.

<em>Hence, the dimensions of the smallest piece that can be used are: 10 by 20 and the area is 200 square inches</em>

Snezhnost [94]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question x is the number of stools and y is the number of recliners

Given that the coffee shop can hold no more than 50, then the inequality for number of seats will be;

x+y≤ 50

Also, the owner wants at least 20 of the seats to be stools, this can be written as;

x≥20

Using a graph tool to visualize the inequalities, you get the attached graph;
