3 less: -3

difference of 16p and 15p: 16p - 15p = p

is equal to: =

the difference of 3 and 1/2: 3 - 1/2 = 2.5

p - 3 = 2.5

Isolate the p. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Add 3 to both sides

p - 3 (+3) = 2.5 (+3)

p = 2.5 + 3

p = 5.5

5.5 is your answer for p

hope this helps

The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.1 in/s. At
kow [346]

Given:

\dfrac{dr}{dt}=1.4\text{ in/s}

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=-2.1\text{ in/s}

To find:

The rate of change in volume at r=120\text{ in. and }175\text{ in.}

Solution:

We know that, volume of a cone is

V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Differentiate with respect to t.

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi\times \left[(r^2\dfrac{dh}{dt}) + h(2r\dfrac{dr}{dt})\right]

Substitute the given values.

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \dfrac{22}{7}\times \left[(120)^2(-2.1) +175(2)(120)(1.4)\right]

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{22}{21}\times \left[-30240+58800\right]

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{22}{21}\times 28560

\dfrac{dV}{dt}=29920

Therefore, the volume of decreased by 29920 cubic inches per second.

Terrence buys a new car for $20,000. The value of the car depreciates by 15% each year. If f(x) represents the value of the car
Lerok [7]

Answer

The function represents the car’s value after x years.

f(x) = 20,000(0.85)x

Reason

As given

Terrence buys a new car for $20,000.

The value of the car depreciates by 15% each year.

15 % is written in the decimal form

= \frac{15}{100}

= 0.15

Thus

The decrease in the value of car is represented by = a (1 - r)× t

Where a is the original cost

r is the depreciates rate in decimal form

t is time in years.

Here a = $20000 ,r = 0.15 , t = x years

The value of car after x years = 20,000 (1 -0.15)x

                                                 = 20000(0.85)x

Therefore the the value of the car after x years is represented by  f(x) = 20,000(0.85)x .

Show a way to count from 170 to 410 using tens and hundreds. circle at least 1 benchmark number
Anastasy [175]
Benchmark are numbers that are used as standards to which the rest of the data is compared to. When counting numbers using a number line, the benchmark numbers are the intervals written on the axis. For benchmark numbers of 10, the number line on top of the attached picture is shown. Starting from 170, the tick marks are added by 10, such that the next numbers are 180, 190, 200, and so on and so forth. When you want to find 410, just find the benchmark number 410.

The same applies to benchmark numbers in intervals of 100. If you want to find 170, used the benchmark numbers 100 and 200. Then, you estimate at which point represents 170. For 410, you base on the benchmark numbers 400 and 500.

James is four years younger than Austin. If three times James' age is increased by the square of Austin's age, the result is 28.
lara31 [8.8K]
Let's use J for James's age and A for Austin's age. The equations are:

J = A - 4
3J + A² = 28

Just plug (A - 4) in the place of J in the second equation. This gives you:

3(A - 4) + A² = 28
-->
A² + 3A - 12 = 28
--> 
A² + 3A - 40 = 0
--> 
(A - 5)(A + 8) = 0
-->
A = 5 or -8

-8 is nonsense, so Austin is 5 years old. Therefore, James is 1 year old.

Suppose an exponential function is fit to a set of data. Which of the following residual plots indicates that this function was
Zina [86]
The correct answer is the choice that you have selected, the third choice. 

When, we are looking at the residuals for a regression line, we always want to see the points balance like in the third choice. This means that the equation that we found is right in the middle of the points.
