The answer would be <span>638.54 − 159.50 + x ≥ 500; x ≥ $20.96. With the current balanced at $638.54 and a pending withdrawal of $159.50, Malcolm must deposit at least $20.96 to keep the maintaining balance of $500 to avoid a fee.</span>

If x varies jointly as y and z, and x = 8 when y = 4 and z = 9, find z when x = 16 and y = 6. 3

Ghella [55]

Answer:

Joint variation says that:

if $x \propto y$ and $x \propto z$

then the equation is in the form of:

$x = kyz$ , where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If x varies jointly as y and z

then by definition we have;

$x=k(yz)$ ......[1]

Solve for k;

when x = 8 , y=4 and z=9

then

Substitute these in [1] we have;

$8=k(4 \cdot 9)$

⇒ $8 = 36k$

Divide both sides by 36 we have;

$\frac{8}{3}=k$

Simplify:

$k = \frac{2}{9}$

⇒ $x = \frac{2}{9}yz$

to find z when x = 16 and y = 6

Substitute these value we have;

$16 = \frac{2}{9} \cdot 6 \cdot z$

⇒ $16 = \frac{12}{9}z$

Multiply both sides by 9 we have;

$144 = 12z$

Divide both sides by 12 we have;

12 = z

or

z = 12

Therefore, the value of z is, 12

Using the quadratic formula to solve 11x2 – 4x = 1, what are the values of x? StartFraction 2 Over 11 EndFraction plus-or-minus

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

$x=\frac{2}{11}\pm\frac{\sqrt{15}} {11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$11x^{2} -4x=1$

equate to zero

$11x^{2} -4x-1=0$

so

$a=11\\b=-4\\c=-1$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-(-4)\pm\sqrt{-4^{2}-4(11)(-1)}} {2(11)}$

$x=\frac{4\pm\sqrt{60}} {22}$

$x=\frac{4\pm2\sqrt{15}} {22}$

$x=\frac{2\pm\sqrt{15}} {11}$

$x=\frac{2}{11}\pm\frac{\sqrt{15}} {11}$

therefore

StartFraction 2 Over 11 EndFraction plus-or-minus StartFraction StartRoot 15 EndRoot Over 11 EndFraction

Charlie is watching hot air balloons. Balloon A has risen at a 56° angle. Balloon B has risen at an 81° angle. If the distance f

sweet [91]

Answer:

999 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture attached, the drawn of the situation is shown

<u>Data</u>

∠x = 56°

∠y = 81°

distance from balloon A to the ground is 1,200 feet

From definition:

tan(∠x) = opposite/adjacent

tan(56°) = 1200/adjacent

adjacent to ∠x = 1200/tan(56°)

adjacent to ∠x = 809.41 ft

tan(∠y) = opposite/adjacent

tan(81°) = 1200/adjacent

adjacent to ∠y = 1200/tan(81°)

adjacent to ∠y = 190.06 ft

The distance from balloon A to balloon B is: 809.41 + 190.06 = 999.47 ≈ 999 ft

Weekly demand for a particular item averages 30 units, with a standard deviation of 4. This item is managed with a fixed-order-i

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

(B)93

Explanation:

Since we are using a fixed-order-interval model,

The Amount to Order=Expected Demand During protection Interval+Safety Stock-Amount at Hand

$=d(OI+LT)+z\sigma_{d}\sqrt{OI+LT}-A$

Where:

d=weekly demand

OI=Order Interval

LT=Lead Time

z=Standard Deviation of Desired Service Level

$\sigma_{d}$ =Standard Deviation of weekly Demand

A= Amount at Hand

$=d(OI+LT)+z\sigma_{d}\sqrt{OI+LT}-A$

$[30(3 + 1)] + [1.964*4*\sqrt{3 + 1} - 43$

$= 120 + 15.712 - 43 = 92.7$
