The pH scale measures how acidic or basic a substance is. Lemon juice is said to have a pH of less than 4 and greater than 1.5.

Model the normal range of pH values of lemon juice, using a compound inequality.
1.5 > x > 4
1.5 < x < 4
1.5 ≤ x ≤ 4
1.5 ≥ x ≥ 4

Let's say x is J because it's Lemon Juice.

It's said that the pH of J is less than 4 so: pH(J) < 4 and pH(J) is greater than 1.5 so: pH(J) > 1.5

Now we can construct:

$1.5 < pH(J) \wedge pH(J) < 4$

Or simply:

$1.5 < pH(J) < 4$

We can also write this with an interval:

$pH(J)\in(1.5, 4)$

Hope this helps.

A city distributes vehicle identification stickers using a combination of letters followed by a combination of digits, each of

gayaneshka [121]

A) 672750
B) 68250
C) 2960100

Explanation
A) We have 26 letters from which to choose 4, and 10 digits from which to choose 2:
$_{26}C_4\times_{10}C_2=\frac{26!}{4!22!}\times\frac{10!}{2!8!}=14950\times45=672750$

B) We have 26 letters from which to choose 2, and 10 digits from which to choose 4:
$_{26}C_2\times_{10}C_4=\frac{26!}{2!24!}\times\frac{10!}{4!6!}=325\times210=68250$

C) We have 26 letters from which to choose 5, and 10 digits from which to choose 2:
$_{26}C_5\times_{10}C_2=\frac{26!}{5!21!}\times\frac{10!}{2!8!}=65780\times45=2960100$

A rectangular area is formed having a perimeter of 40 cm. Determine the length and breadth of the rectangle if it is to enclose

Vilka [71]

Let x and y be the dimensions of the rectangle. If the perimeter is 40, we have

$2(x+y)=40 \iff x+y=20$

We can expression one variable in terms of the others as

$x+y=20 \iff x=20-y$

Since the area is the product of the dimensions, we have

$xy=(20-y)y=-y^2+20y$

This is a parabola facing down, so it's vertex is the maximum:

$f(y)=-y^2+20y \implies f'(y)=-2y+20$

So, the maximum is

$f'(y)=0 \iff -2y+20=0 \iff 2y=20 \iff y=10$

And since we know that $x+y=20$ , we have $x=10$ as well.

This is actually a well known theorem: out of all the rectangles with given perimeter, the one with the greatest area is the square.

The following formula for the sum of the cubes of the first n integers is proved in Appendix E. Use it to evaluate the limit in

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2})$

And when we apply the limit we got that:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2}) =1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "The following formula for the sum of the cubes of the first n integers is proved in Appendix E. Use it to evaluate the limit . 1^3+2^3+3^3+...+n^3=[n(n+1)/2]^2"

We have the following formula in order to find the sum of cubes:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} i^3$

We can express this formula like this:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}i^3 =\lim_{n\to\infty} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2$

And using this property we need to proof that: 1^3+2^3+3^3+...+n^3=[n(n+1)/2]^2

$\lim_{n\to\infty} [\frac{n(n+1)}{2}]^2$

If we operate and we take out the 1/4 as a factor we got this:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{n^4}$

We can cancel $n^2$ and we got

$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{(n+1)^2}{n^2}$

We can reorder the terms like this:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (\frac{n+1}{n})^2$

We can do some algebra and we got:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+\frac{1}{n})^2$

We can solve the square and we got:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2})$

And when we apply the limit we got that:

$\lim_{n\to\infty} (1+ \frac{2}{n} +\frac{1}{n^2}) =1$
