It will take 7.9 years for the lobster to travel 39.5 miles

Word problem is usually made up of a few sentences describing a situation that needs to be solved through mathematics

How to determine this

If a lobster travels 5 miles each year

i.e 5 miles = 1 years

How many years will it take the lobster to travel 39.5 miles

Let x represent the number of years the lobster travel

For lobster to travel 39.5 miles,

i.e 39.5 miles = x years

To calculate the number of years

When 5 miles = 1 year

39.5 miles = x

x = 39.5 miles * 1 year/5 miles

x = 39.5 years/5

x = 7.9 years

Therefore, it will take 7.9 years for the lobster to travel 39.5 miles

Equations in the system are accurate and coincident.

Solve the system using any approach, such as elimination or substitution, and then categorize the equations as consistent independent, inconsistent, or coincident.

Using the substitution technique:

x - 2y = -4 => x = 2y - 4

Substituting x = 2y - 4 into the first equation:

3x - 6y = -12

3(2y - 4) - 6y = -12

6y - 12 - 6y = -12

-12 = -12

Identity -12 = -12 is a constant. Since the two equations represent the same line and have an infinite number of solutions, the system of equations is consistent and coincident.

Any value of y can be chosen, and x = 2y - 4 can be used to calculate the equivalent value of x.

Step-by-step explanation:

have a good day :)

A 11.544 acre-feet of this ice field will melt from the beginning of day 1 (t = 0) to the beginning of day 4 (t = 3). So, correct option is C.

To solve the problem, we need to integrate the given rate of melting with respect to time over the interval [0,3] to find the total amount of ice that melts during this time.

First, we can simplify the given rate of melting by using the identity: sin³(t) = (3sin(t) - sin(3t))/4

So, M(t) = 4 - (3sin(t) - sin(3t))/4 = 16/4 - 3sin(t)/4 + sin(3t)/4 = 4 - 0.75sin(t) + 0.25sin(3t)

Integrating this expression with respect to t over the interval [0,3], we get:

[tex]\int\limits^3_0[/tex] M(t) dt = [tex]\int\limits^3_0[/tex] (4 - 0.75sin(t) + 0.25sin(3t)) dt

= [4t + 0.75cos(t) - (1/3)cos(3t)]|[0,3]

= (12 + 0.75cos(3) - (1/3)cos(9)) - (0 + 0.75cos(0) - (1/3)cos(0))

= 11.544

Therefore, the answer is (C) 11.544.

The total number of boxes purchased using $11.40 and the remaining expected changed money received is 28 boxes and $0.20 respectively.

Total amount of money to buy drink boxes = $11.40

Cost of each drink box = $0.40

Number of drink boxes bought

= $11.40 ÷ $0.40/drink box

= 28.5 drink boxes

Since you cannot buy a fractional part of a drink box.

Round down to the nearest whole number.

Here,  28 drink boxes can be bought with the available money.

To determine expect change,

Subtract the total cost of the drink boxes from the amount of money available.

$11.40 − ($0.40/drink box × 28 drink boxes)

= $11.40 − $11.20

= $0.20

The amount of change is $0.20.

Therefore,  the number of boxes bought with given amount is 28 boxes and the remaining expected amount of money received is $0.20 .

Lakeside Olds should expect to have approximately 3 automobiles lined up at opening time on a typical day based on the probability distribution provided.

To find the expected number of automobiles lined up at the Lakeside Olds dealer at opening time, we use the concept of expected value. The expected value is the average value we would expect to see if we repeated the experiment many times. In this case, the experiment is the number of automobiles lined up at the dealer at opening time.

We are given the probability distribution for the number of automobiles, which tells us the probability of each possible outcome. We use these probabilities to calculate the expected value as the weighted average of all possible outcomes.

Expected number of automobiles = (1 x 0.05) + (2 x 0.30) + (3 x 0.40) + (4 x 0.25)

= 0.05 + 0.60 + 1.20 + 1.00

The value of x that would make triangle ABC a right triangle is x= 2. The justification is that the product of the slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1/2, and when the points are plugged into the distance formula, the sides satisfy the Pythagorean theorem.

To determine a value of x that would make triangle ABC a right triangle, we need to check if the square of the length of any two sides equals the square of the length of the third side.

We can use the distance formula to find the lengths of the sides of the triangle

AB = √((x + 3)² + 4²)

BC = √(2² + 3²)

CA = √((x + 1)² + 1²)

To make triangle ABC a right triangle, we need to find a value of x that satisfies the Pythagorean theorem

AB² + BC² = CA²

[(x + 3)² + 4²] + [2² + 3²] = [(x + 1)² + 1²]

Simplifying this equation yields

x² + 2x - 8 = 0

Solving for x, we get

x = 2 or x = -4

So, if x = 2 or x = -4, then triangle ABC is a right triangle.

To justify this, we can find the slopes of the line segments connecting the vertices of the triangle

mAB = (3 - (-1)) / (x - (-3)) = 4 / (x + 3)

mBC = (-4 - (-1)) / (-1 - (-3)) = -3/2

mCA = (3 - (-4)) / (x + 1 - (-1)) = 7 / (x + 2)

When x = 2, we get

mAB = 4/5

mBC = -3/2

mCA = 7/3

mAB * mBC = -2/5

mBC * mCA = -7/6

mCA * mAB = 14/15

when x = 2, triangle ABC is right triangle.

When x = -4, we get

mAB = 4/(-1) = -4

mBC = -3/2

mCA = 7/(-3) = -7/3

mAB * mBC = 6

mBC * mCA = 14/3

mCA * mAB = 7/2

The first four terms of the geometric sequence are -1, 11, -121, and -1210.

We have,

To find the first four terms of the geometric sequence, we need to determine the common ratio, r, and then use it to calculate the other terms.

We can start by using the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence:

an = a1 x r^(n - 1)

where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term, r is the common ratio, and n is the position of the term we want to find.

Since we are given a2 and a3, we can use them to form two equations:

a2 = a1 x r

a3 = a1 x r²

We can then solve for a1 and r:

a1 = a2 / r = 11 / r

r = a3 / a2 = -121 / 11

Substituting these values into the formula for the nth term, we get:

an = (11 / r) x (-121 / 11)^(n - 2)

Simplifying this expression, we get:

an = -11 x 11^(n - 2)

Now we can calculate the first four terms:

a1 = 11 / r = 11 / (-121 / 11) = -1

a2 = 11

a3 = -121

a4 = -11 x 11^(4 - 2) = -1210

The probability of selecting a person who wears a watch given that they wear a ring is 2/5 or 0.4.

From the Venn diagram, we can see that there are 10 people who wear rings, 2 of whom also wear watches. This means that the probability of randomly selecting a person who wears a ring is 10 out of the total number of people in the class. That is:

P(Ring) = 10 / (10+2) = 10/12

Similarly, we can find the probability of selecting a person who wears both a watch and a ring. From the diagram, we can see that there are 4 such people. Thus,

P(Watch and Ring) = 4 / (10+2) = 4/12

Using the formula for conditional probability, we get:

P(Watch|Ring) = P(Watch and Ring) / P(Ring)

Substituting the values we obtained earlier, we get:

P(Watch|Ring) = (4/12) / (10/12) = 4/10 = 2/5 or 0.4

Neither student's work properly verifies the identity and  csc x = 1/sin x,  sin² x + cos² x = 1 are the  two identities that were used in Student A's verification.

Part A:

Both Student A and Student B did not verify the identity properly. Student A started with the correct expression, but then manipulated it incorrectly.

In Step 1, multiplying cosine x over sine x times cosine x does not equal cosecant x minus sine x.

In Step 2, dividing cosine squared x by sine x also does not equal cosecant x minus sine x. Student B also started with the correct expression, but made a mistake in Step 2.

Subtracting sine squared x over sine x from 1 does not equal 1 over sine x minus sine squared x over sine x.

Therefore, neither student's work properly verifies the identity.

Part B:

Identity 1: csc x = 1/sin x

Student A uses this identity in Step 4 when they rewrite 1/sin x as csc x.

Identity 2: sin² x + cos² x = 1

Student A uses this identity in Step 3 when they rewrite cos² x as 1 - sin²x.

Hence, neither student's work properly verifies the identity and  csc x = 1/sin x,  sin² x + cos² x = 1 are the  two identities that were used in Student A's verification.

The linear function f with the values f(10) = 5 and f(2) = -3 is f(x) = x - 5.

The formula for equation of line is expressed as;

y = mx + b

Where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

hence, to write a linear function f with the values f(10) = 5 and f(2) = -3, we need to find the slope and y-intercept of the function.

The slope of a linear function can be found by using the formula:

Slope m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Using the values of f(10) = 5 and f(2) = -3,

we can find the slope:

Slope m = (5 - (-3)) / (10 - 2)

= 8 / 8

= 1

Now that we have the slope, we can use the point-slope form to find the equation of a line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is one of the points on the line.

Using the point (10, 5) and slope m = 1, we have:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 1(x - 10)

Simplifying, we get:

y - 5 = x - 10

y = x - 5

f(x) = x - 5
