Answer:

Brett rides a total of three miles to and from school every week.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from Brett's house to school is 3/10 of a mile, so roundtrip each day (to and from school) is 3/10 x 2 or 6/10, which is also 3/5. Since Brett rides his bike to school each day, Monday to Friday, we need to take his daily mileage (3/5) and add it each day for five days, or multiply 3/5 by 5. Multiply 3/5 by 5/1 gives us a total of 15/5 which is 3 miles.

Sometimes a change of variable can be used to convert a differential equation y′=f(t,y) into a separable equation. One common ch

enot [183]

Answer:

$y=\frac{-7t^2+22t-7}{7t-22}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Initial value problem

$y'=(t+y)^2-1$ , y(3)=4

Substitute the value $z=t+y$

When t=3 and y=4 then

z=3+4=7

$y'=z^2-1$

Differentiate z w.r.t t

Then, we get

$\frac{dz}{dt}=1+y'$

$z'=1+z^2-1=z^2$

$z^{-2}dz=dt$

Integrate on both sides

$-\frac{1}{z}dz=t+C$

$z=-\frac{1}{t+C}$

Substitute t=3 and z=7

Then, we get

$7=-\frac{1}{3+C}$

$21+7C=-1$

$7C=-1-21=-22$

$C=-\frac{22}{7}$

Substitute the value of C then we get

$z=-\frac{1}{t-\frac{22}{7}}$

$z=\frac{-7}{7t-22}$

$y=z-t$

$y=\frac{-7}{7t-22}-t$

$y=\frac{-7-7t^2+22t}{7t-22}$

$y=\frac{-7t^2+22t-7}{7t-22}$

Suppose that 3% of all athletes are using the endurance-enhancing hormone EPO (you should be able to simply compute the percenta

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So there is a 3% probability that an athlete is using EPO .

The probability of showing positive on a test when you've used it is 0.99.

3% x 0.99= 2.97%

The probability of a positive result without EPO is 0.1

97% x 0,1 = 9,7 %

My guess is that 2.97% + 9,7% = 12.67% or 0.1267.

I don't know i may be wrong because you've put as an answer 0.0297 but if you like you may take only the first part of the answer.

-3^(-x)-6=-3^x+10<br><br>Solve the equation below for x by graphing plz

vitfil [10]

To graph it, just graph $y=-3^{-x}-6$ and $y=-3^x+10$ and see where they intersect

I would like to solve it by using math and not graphing
if you don't want to see the math, just don't scroll down
the graphical meathod is above, first line, just read it

hmm
multiply both sides by -1
$3^{-x}+6=3^x-10$
multiply both sides by $3^x$
$3^0+6(3^x)=3^{2x}-10(3^x)$
$1+6(3^x)=3^{2x}-10(3^x)$
minus 1 from both sides and minus 6(3^x) from both sides
$0=3^{2x}-16(3^x)-1$
use u subsitution
$u=3^x$
we can rewrite it as
$0=u^2-16u-1$
now factor
I mean use quadratic formula
for $ax^2+bx+c=0$ $x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$
so for 0=u^2-16u-1, a=1, b=-16, c=-1
$u=\frac{-(-16)+/-\sqrt{(-16)^2-4(1)(-1)}{2(1)}$
$u=8+/-\sqrt{65}$
remember that u=3^x so u>0
if we have u=8+√65, it's fine, but u=8-√65 is negative and not allowed
so therfor
$u=8+\sqrt{65}=3^x$
$8+\sqrt{65}=3^x$
if you take the log base 3 of both sides you get
$log_3(8+\sqrt{65})=x$
if you use ln then
$ln(8+\sqrt{65})=xln(3)$
then
$\frac{ln(8+\sqrt{65})}{ln(3)}=x$

The angle measures associated with which set of ordered pairs share the same reference angle

Trava [24]

Answer:

Option 3 is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle of x is obtained by either 180-x, 180+x. or 360-x depending on the posiiton of terminal whether II quadrant or iv quadrant, or iii quadrant, etc.

In whatever way we find reference angles,

cos will remain cos only and sin will remain sin only there may be only changes in sign.

Of all the ordered pairs given, we find that I, II, and Iv there is a switch over form cos to sine and sin to cos. Hence these options cannot be for reference angles.

III option is $(-\frac{1}{2} ,\frac{-\sqrt{3} }{2} )(\frac{1}{2} ,\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} )$

show that both sign and cos changed sign. This is possible only in III quadrant.

ie reference angle of orignal angle t = 180+t

SO this option is right.

Jessica is selling books during the summer to earn money for college. She earns a commission on each sale but has to pay for her

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Her expenses are $25 per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :Jessica earns a commission on each sale but has to pay for her own expenses.

She writes the equation of the function like this: $E(x) = 7x - 25$ , where x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week and E(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars.

To Find: Which of the following are reasonable interpretations of the y-intercept of Jessica's function?

Solution:

$E(x) = 7x - 25$

x is the number of doors she knocks on during the week

E(x) is her earnings for the week in dollars.

Calculate y intercept

Substitute x = 0

$y= - 25$

Since E(x) is her total earning after clearing the payment of all her expenses.

So, 25 is her expenses per week.

Since we are given that she need to pay her expenses .

So, if there is no sale , still she need to pay expenses.

Thus the reasonable interpretations of the y-intercept of Jessica's function is Her expenses are $25 per week.
