Answer:

6(4a+3b-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

They all share a common factor of 6 so we can factor out the six, 6(4a+3b-5)

Answer:

2a+b=5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

given the expression

24a + 12b - 30

Step one :

To solve this we need to look for a common factor

Here 6 is a common factor

So divide all through by 6

24a/6+12b/6-30/6

4a+2b-5

4a+2b=5

Step two :

We can still factor 2 out for the terms with variables

2(2a+b)=5

2a+b=5/2

Evaluate the triple integral ∭ExydV where E is the solid tetrahedon with vertices (0,0,0),(5,0,0),(0,9,0),(0,0,4).

Elan Coil [88]

Answer: $\int\limits^a_E {\int\limits^a_E {\int\limits^a_E {xy} } \, dV$ = 1087.5

Step-by-step explanation: To evaluate the triple integral, first an equation of a plane is needed, since the tetrahedon is a geometric form that occupies a 3 dimensional plane. The region of the integral is in the attachment.

An equation of a plane is found with a point and a normal vector. Normal vector is a perpendicular vector on the plane.

Given the points, determine the vectors:

P = (5,0,0); Q = (0,9,0); R = (0,0,4)

vector PQ = (5,0,0) - (0,9,0) = (5,-9,0)

vector QR = (0,9,0) - (0,0,4) = (0,9,-4)

Knowing that cross product of two vectors will be perpendicular to these vectors, you can use the cross product as normal vector:

n = PQ × QR = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\5&-9&0\\0&9&-4\end{array}\right]$ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j\\5&-9\\0&9\end{array}\right]$

n = 36i + 0j + 45k - (0k + 0i - 20j)

n = 36i + 20j + 45k

Equation of a plane is generally given by:

$a(x-x_{0}) + b(y-y_{0}) + c(z-z_{0}) = 0$

Then, replacing with point P and normal vector n:

$36(x-5) + 20(y-0) + 45(z-0) = 0$

The equation is: 36x + 20y + 45z - 180 = 0

Second, in evaluating the triple integral, set limits:

In terms of z:

$z = \frac{180-36x-20y}{45}$

When z = 0:

$y = 9 + \frac{-9x}{5}$

When z=0 and y=0:

x = 5

Then, triple integral is:

$\int\limits^5_0 {\int\limits {\int\ {xy} \, dz } \, dy } \, dx$

Calculating:

$\int\limits^5_0 {\int\limits {\int\ {xyz} \, dy } \, dx$

$\int\limits^5_0 {\int\limits {\int\ {xy(\frac{180-36x-20y}{45} - 0 )} \, dy } \, dx$

$\frac{1}{45} \int\limits^5_0 {\int\ {180xy-36x^{2}y-20xy^{2}} \, dy } \, dx$

$\frac{1}{45} \int\limits^5_0 {90xy^{2}-18x^{2}y^{2}-\frac{20}{3} xy^{3} } \, dx$

$\frac{1}{45} \int\limits^5_0 {2430x-1458x^{2}+\frac{94770}{125} x^{3}-\frac{23490}{375}x^{4} } \, dx$

$\frac{1}{45} [30375-60750+118462.5-39150]$

$\int\limits^5_0 {\int\limits {\int\ {xyz} \, dy } \, dx$ = 1087.5

The volume of the tetrahedon is 1087.5 cubic units.

Mrs Wright spent 2/9 of her paycheck on food and 1/3 on rent. She spent 1/4 of the remainder on transportation. She had $210 lef

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Mrs. Wright's paycheck is $630

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Mrs. Wright's paycheck.

Mrs. Wright spent 2/9 of her paycheck on food. This means that the amount of money spent on food is 2/9 × x = 2x/9

She spent 1/3 on rent. This means that the amount spent on rent is

1/3 ×x x = x/3

Amount she spent on food and rent is x/3 + 2x/9 =3x + 2x /9

= 5x/9

The remainder is her pay check - the amount that she spent on food and rent. It becomes

x - 5x/9 = (9x- 5x)/9 = 4x/9

She spent 1/4 of the remainder on transportation. It means that she spent 1/4 × 4x/9 = x /9 on transportation.

Amount left = 4x /9 - x/9= 3x/9

She had $210 left. Therefore,

210 = 3x/9

3x = 9×210 = 1890

x = 1890/3

x = $630

never [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total points: (20x4) + (10x7) = 150

Justin scored 124/150

150-124 = ones he didn't get correct

150-124 = 26

26 = 4 + 7 + 4 +7 + 4

We are trying to figure out how many he answered correctly NOT how many he got wrong.

There are 30 questions. He got 5 wrong. That means he got 25 correct.

The length of a rectangular park is 20 feet longer than the width of the park. If the lenght of the park is 36 feet, what is the

lara [203]

Below is a labeled rectangle:

length = w + 20

we know length is 36 so we plug that in:

36 = w + 20

We need to isolate w and to do that we must subtract 20 from both sides:

(36 - 20) = w + (20 - 20)

16 = w + 0

w = 16

width is 16 feet

Hope this helped!
