Zach read a book for 10 minutes every weekend in the first month, 20 minutes in the second month, 40 minutes in the third month,

and 80 minutes in the fourth month. Victoria read a book for 35 minutes every weekend in the first month, 50 minutes in the second month, 65 minutes in the third month, and 80 minutes in the fourth month. Which statement best describes the methods used by Zach and Victoria to increase the time they spent reading a book? A) Zach's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal factor every month. B) Victoria's method is linear because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every month. C) Both Victoria and Zach's method is exponential because the number of minutes increased by an equal factor every month. D) Both Victoria and Zach's method is exponential because the number of minutes increased by an equal number every month.

Zach time of reading every weekend forms a sequence with these terms: 10, 20, 40, 80. On the other hand, that of Victoria forms a sequence with terms: 35, 50, 65, 80. By keenly observing the sequences, Zach's sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio equal to 2 and Victoria's sequence is an arithmetic or linear sequence with a common difference of 15. Thus, the answer is letter B.

1. Write 3,876,943,000 using scientific notation.
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

3.876943x10^9

7.317x10^-4

Step-by-step explanation:

3,876,943,000

Put the decimal at the end

3,876,943,000.

Move it so only 1 number is before the decimal

3.876943000

We moved it 9 places, so that is the exponent

We moved it to the left, so the exponent is positive

The three zeros at the end can be dropped because they are the last numbers to the right of the decimal

3.876943x10^9

0.0007317

Move it so only 1 number is before the decimal

00007.317

We moved it 4 places, so that is the exponent

We moved it to the right, so the exponent is negative

The four zeros at the left can be dropped because they are the last numbers to the left of the whole number

7.317x10^-4

What is the factored form of the binomial expansion 125x^3 + 525x^2 + 735x + 343?
yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. regroup terms

125x^3+343+525x^2+735x

2. Rewrite 125x^3 as  (5x)^3 and 343 as 7^3

(5x)^3+7^3+525x^2+735x

3. Since both terms are perfect cubes, factor using the sum of cubes formula, a^3+b^3 = (a+b)(a^2-ab+b^2), where a=5x and b=7

(5x+7)((5x)^2-(7)(5x)+(7)^2)+525x^2+735x

(5x+7)(25x^2-35x+49)+525x^2+735x

4. Factor 105x out of 525x^2+735x

(5x+7)(25x^2-35x+49)+105x(5x+7)

5. Regroup

(5x+7)(25x^2-35x+49+105x)

(5x+7)(25x^2+70x+49)

6. Factor again

(5x+7)(5x+7)^2

(5x+7)^3

6 tractors take 10days to collect the harvest. How long would it take 18 tractors to do the same amount of work?
Nutka1998 [239]
This is a question of proportionality. However, it is not direct proportionality as it is expected that as the number of tractors increases, the work is finished faster as opposed to fewer number of tractors. This is referred to as inverse proportionality.

Therefore;
6 tractors ----- 10 days
18 tractors --- x days

Then,
x = (6*10)/18 = 10/3 days = 3 days, and 8 hours.

This means that 18 tractors will take 3 days and 8 hours to collect the same harvest.

Solve the equation by completing the square. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary. x2 – 4x = 5
Ksenya-84 [330]
Solve for x over the real numbers:
x^2 - 4 x = 5

Subtract 5 from both sides:
x^2 - 4 x - 5 = 0

x = (4 ± sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 (-5)))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(16 + 20))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(36))/2:
x = (4 + sqrt(36))/2 or x = (4 - sqrt(36))/2

sqrt(36) = sqrt(4×9) = sqrt(2^2×3^2) = 2×3 = 6:
x = (4 + 6)/2 or x = (4 - 6)/2

(4 + 6)/2 = 10/2 = 5:
x = 5 or x = (4 - 6)/2

(4 - 6)/2 = -2/2 = -1:

Answer:  x = 5 or x = -1

Fruit juice comes in two types of containers. The first is a rectangular prism that is 9 inches tall and has a rectangular base
My name is Ann [436]

The volume of a rectangular prism:

V_p=Bh\\\\B=wl\\\\w=2\ in;\ l=3\ in;\ h=9\ in

substitute

V_p=2\cdot3\cdot9=54\ in^3

The volume of a cylinder:

V_c=\pi r^2h\\\\r=1.5\ in;\ h=8\ in

substitute:

V_c=\pi\cdot(1.5)^2\cdot8=\pi\cdot2.25\cdot8=18\pi\ in^3\approx18\cdot3.14=56.52\ in^3

Answer: C. The cylinder has the greater volume.
