Andrew solved the following inequality, and his work is shown below:
−4(x + 8) + 25 ≤ −2 + 1(x − 50)
−4x − 32 + 25 ≤ −2 + 1x − 50
−4x − 7 ≤ 1x − 52
−5x ≤ −45
x ≤ 9
What mistake did Andrew make in solving the inequality?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  Andrew failed to change the direction of the inequality

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the mistake in Anderw's work solving the inequality ...

  −4(x + 8) + 25 ≤ −2 + 1(x − 50)

Solution

−4(x + 8) + 25 ≤ −2 + 1(x − 50)

−4x − 32 + 25 ≤ −2 + 1x − 50

−4x − 7 ≤ 1x − 52

−5x ≤ −45

x ≥ 9

Andrew's mistake was failing to reverse the inequality symbol when dividing by a negative number (-5) at the last step.

__

Additional comment

The last steps of the solution could be written ...

  -5x ≤ -45

  45 ≤ 5x . . . . . . . add 5x+45 to both sides

  9 ≤ x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5 (no reversal of ≤ is needed)

A Norman window is a window with a semicircle on top of a regular rectangular window as shown in the diagram. What should the dimensions of the rectangular part of a Norman window be to allow in as much light as possible if there is only 12 ft of the framing material available?

Answers

The dimensions of the rectangular window that gives a maximum area are as follows;

Width = [tex]\dfrac{12}{2+\pi }[/tex] feet and length = 3 feet

What is the maximum value of a function?

The maximum value of a function is given by the point at which the graph of the function has the highest value.

The parameters of the window are;

Length of the framing material available = 12 ft.

The shape of the window = A semicircle on top of a regular rectangular window

Required; The dimension of the rectangular part of the Norman window that allows the most light

Solution;

Diameter of the semicircular part of the window = The width of the rectangular part

Let x represent the width of the window, we have;

Perimeter of the semicircle = π·x/2

Side length of the rectangular window = (12 - π·x/2 - x)/2

Area of the rectangular part of the window, A = x × (12 - π·x/2 - x)/2

Area of the semicircle = π·x²÷4

Area of the window, is therefore;

[tex]A =\dfrac{ x \times (12 - \dfrac{\pi \cdot x}{2} - x)}{2} +\dfrac{ \pi \cdot x^2}{4}[/tex]

At the maximum area, of the rectangular part, we have;

[tex]A_r' =\dfrac{d}{dx}\left( A =\dfrac{ x \times (12 - \dfrac{\pi \cdot x}{2} - x)}{2} \right) = -\dfrac{x\cdot \pi +2\cdot x-12}{2} = 0[/tex]

x·π + 2·x - 12 = 0

The width, x = [tex]\dfrac{12}{2+\pi }[/tex] feet

The length of the rectangle is therefore;

[tex](12 - \pi \cdot \dfrac{6}{2+\pi } - \dfrac{12}{2+\pi })/2 = 6 - \pi \cdot \dfrac{3}{2+\pi } - \dfrac{6}{2+\pi } = 3[/tex]

The length of the rectangular window = 3 feet

1. The cost of bell peppers varies directly with the weight of bell peppers, as shown in the table. Write a direct variation equation to represent this relationship. Then identify the constant of variation and interpret its meaning.

Answers

The constant of variation is 1.75 for every unit increase in x (weight), and the cost(y) value increases by $ 1.75.

What is the equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

The difference between two consecutive entries is constant, as we can see = 1.75

⇒ 7 - 5.25 = 1.75

⇒ 8.75-7 = 1.75

⇒ Slope(m) = 1.75

The slope represents the variable's rate of change.

y - 3 = m(x - 5.25)

y - 5.25 = 1.75(x-3)

y = 1.76x

Thus, the constant of variation is 1.75

This indicates that for every unit increase in x (weight), the cost(y) value increases by $ 1.75.

The linear function that is graphed on the grid is g(x) = (15/2)x + 45   , the correct option is (d) .

In the question ,

a linear function graph is shown ,

we have to find that linear function .

So , From the given graph we can see that

the graph passes from the points (2 , 60) and (6 , 90)

in order to find the equation , we first need to find the slope .

slope = (90 - 60)/(6 - 2)

= 30/4

= 15/2

So , the equation of the line passing through the points (2 , 60) and slope 15/2 is

(y - 60) = 15/2(x - 2)

y - 60 = (15/2)x - 15

Adding 60 to both the sides ,

we get

y - 60 + 60 = (15/2)x - 15 + 60

y = (15/2)x - 15 + 60

y =  (15/2)x + 45

function is (15/2)x + 45

Therefore , The linear function that is graphed on the grid is g(x) = (15/2)x + 45  .

The given question is incomplete , the complete question is

Which linear function is graphed on the grid shown below ?

(a) g(x) = (2/15)x - 6

When a constant force acts upon an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constant force acts upon an object with mass 3 kg, the acceleration of the object is 25 m/s^2. If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is 5 kg, what is this object's acceleration?

Answers

If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is 5 kg, the object's acceleration will be 1.667 m/s^2.

How can the acceleration be calculated?

We were told that the constant force acts upon an object, and  the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass, which can be interpreted as :

A = k/M

where M is the mass of the object.

A = acceleration

the k= proportionality constant

then we were told that mass is 3 kg, the acceleration of the object is 25 m/s^2

then substitute into the equation as:

25 =k*3

Answers

Answer:

One solution: x =21.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation

12x + 6 = 14(2x – 24)                    Remove the brackets

Solution

12x + 6 = 28x - 336                      Add 336 to both sides.

12x + 6+336 = 28x - 336             Combine

12x + 342 = 28x -336+336        

12x + 342 = 28x                            Subtract 12x from both sides.

12x-12x + 342 = 28x - 12x             Combine

342 = 16x                                      Divide by 16

342/16 = 16x/16

C.
The maximum number of rooms that can be repainted is 2.

Answers

The statement that is true about the number of rooms that can be painted using inequality is; D.

The hotel can repaint 2 rooms, but this number is neither the maximum nor the minimum.

How to solve Inequality Word problems?

We are given;

Budget of hotel to repaint the lobby and some hotel rooms; $63750

Amount spent on painting the lobby = $26700

Cost to paint each room = $4250

Thus, the inequality to represent the given situation is;

26,700 + 4,250n ≤ $63,750

where;

n is number of rooms the hotel can repaint

Subtract 26700 from both sides of the inequality to get;

4250n ≤ 37050

n ≤ 37050/4250

n ≤ 8.717

Since we can't paint only a portion, we leave it as a maximum of 8 rooms

Looking at the given options, the only correct one is option D.

Complete the statements.

The 50 pounds of trail mix includes [DROP DOWN 1] pounds of cashews and [DROP DOWN 2] pounds of chocolate candies.

Answers

The 50 pounds of trail mix includes 28.57 pounds of cashews and 21.43 pounds of chocolate candies.

What pounds of cashew and chocolate candies should be mixed to make the trail mix?

let

x = pounds of cashewy = pounds of chocolate candies

x + y = 50

2.75x + y = 50 × 2

Solve the equation simultaneously

x + y = 50

2.75x + y = 100

Substract the equations

2.75x - x = 100 - 50

1.75x = 50

x = 50/1.75

x = 28.57 pounds

Substitute into

x + y = 50

28.57 + y = 50

y = 50 + 28.57

y = 21.43 pounds

So therefore, the pounds of cashew and chocolate candies needed are 28.75 and 21.43 respectively.

Answers

Amount of money left in Lee pocket after he buys a $35.20 leather jacket from the given amount is equal to $1.3.

As given in the question,

Conversion of quarter into dollars is :

1 quarter = 0.25 dollars

Amount of money with Lee in his pocket is equal to :

= ( 7 × 5) dollars + ( 6 × 0.25) dollars
