Answer:

x = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

using the rule of indices

[tex]\frac{1}{a^{n} }[/tex] = [tex]a^{-n}[/tex] , then

[tex]3^{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{81}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3^{4} }[/tex] = [tex]3^{-4}[/tex] , that is

[tex]3^{x}[/tex] = [tex]3^{-4}[/tex] , thus

x = - 4

a) The slope of the secant lines are: q = 5, f(q) = 2,076: m = - 131.1, q = 10, f(q) = 1,299: m = - 106.8, q = 20, f(q) = 357: m = - 81.6, q = 25, f(q) = 84: m = - 68.1, q = 30, f(q) = 0: m = - 51.

b) The estimated slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point (x, y) = (15, 765) is - 94.2 gallons per minute.

In this problem we must determine the slope of several lines based on the information given by the table and using the secant line formula:

m = [f(q) - f(p)] / (q - p)     (1)

If we know that a = 15 and p = 765, then the slope of the secant lines are:

q = 5, f(q) = 2,076

m = [2,076 - 765] / (5 - 15)

m = - 131.1

q = 10, f(q) = 1,299

m = [1,299 - 765] / (10 - 15)

m = - 106.8

q = 20, f(q) = 357

m = [357 - 765] / (20 - 15)

m = - 81.6

q = 25, f(q) = 84

m = [84 - 765] / (25 - 15)

m = - 68.1

q = 30, f(q) = 0

m = [0 - 765] / (30 - 15)

m = - 51

The slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point (x, y) = (15, 765) can be estimated by averaging the slopes of the closest secant lines:

m' = [(- 106.8) + (- 81.6)] / 2

m' = - 94.2

The estimated slope of the line tangent to the curve at the point (x, y) = (15, 765) is - 94.2 gallons per minute.

These are polynomials by the definition of a polynomial.

Since the values on both sides are equal, hence the system of equation given has no solution

Simultaneous equations are equations that consists of two or more equation and unknowns.

Given the equation below

Neil had 18 dimes, 6 nickels and 10 quarters saved up in his jar making a total of 460 pennies

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

In his piggy bank, Neil has three times as many dimes as nickels and he has four more quarters than nickels. The coins total are 4.60. How many of each coin does he have.

Let x represent dimes (0.1), y represent nickels (0.5) and z represent quarter (0.25)

Hence:

0.1x + 0.05y + 0.25z = 4.6   (1)

Also:

x = 3y   (2)

And:

z = y + 4  (3)

From the equations:

To solve the problem we have to take 4 percent of 5000 and multiply it by 8 years and the final result is 1600 dollars, which would be the final result.

Answer:

We call the denominator rational.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example:

[tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{\sqrt2}{\sqrt2 \cdot \sqrt2} = \frac{\sqrt2}{2}[/tex]

It's clear that the denominator is now a rational number, not an irrational one anymore.

Given the measure of side a, b and c of the triangle, the measure of angle C to the nearest tenth is 104.5°.

From the law of cosines;

cosC = ( a² + b² - c² ) / 2ab

Where C is the angle C and a, b, and c are the three sides of the triangle.

Given the data in the question;

Using law of cosine;

cosC = ( a² + b² - c² ) / 2ab

We substitute the values into the equation.

cosC = ( 2² + 3² - 4² ) / ( 2 × 2 × 3 )

cosC = ( 4 + 9 - 16 ) / ( 12 )

cosC = -3 / 12

cosC = -0.25

We find the inverse of cosine.

C = cos⁻¹( -0.25 )

C = 104.477°

C = 104.5°

Given the measure of side a, b and c of the triangle, the measure of angle C to the nearest tenth is 104.5°.

Step-by-step explanation:

P( A Student participates in Both sports and Drama) =0.07

The probability of an occurrence can be determined using the probability formula by simply dividing the favorable number of possibilities by the entire number of possible outcomes.

To find the probability that a student participates in both sports and drama:

Let

A =Student  participate in Sport

B = Student  participate in Drama

Thus we have:

P(A) = 0.42

P(B) = 0.25

and

P(Ac and B or A and Bc) =0.53

P(Ac and B ) + P( A and Bc) =0.53

P(B) - P(A and B) + P(A) - P(A and B) = 0.53

0.25 - P(A and B )  +  0.42 - P(A and B) = 0.53

0.25+0.42 - 2 * P( A and B) = 0.53

0.67 - 2 * P(A and B) = 0.53

0.67 - 0.53  = 2* P(A and B)

0.14  =  2 * P(A and B)

0.14 / 2  = P( A and B)

0.07 = P( A and B)

that is:

P( A and B) = 0.07

P( A Student  participate in Both sports and Drama) =0.07.

The probability that a student participates in both sports and drama is [tex]0.14[/tex].

If [tex]A[/tex] and [tex]B[/tex] are any two events, then the probability of the joint event [tex](A\cup B)[/tex] is given by the following formula: [tex]P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)[/tex]

Given that 42% of the students participate in sports and 25% of the students participate in drama and 53% of the students participate in either sports or drama.

Suppose [tex]S[/tex] denotes that "a student participates in sports" and [tex]D[/tex] denotes that "a student participates in drama".
So, we have [tex]P(S)=\frac{42}{100}=0.42[/tex], [tex]P(D)=\frac{25}{100}=0.25[/tex], [tex]P(S\cup D)=\frac{53}{100}=0.53[/tex].

We want to find the probability that a student participates in both sports and drama i.e., we want to find [tex]P(S\cap D)[/tex].

By the above formula, we obtain:

[tex]P(S\cup D)=P(S)+P(D)-P(S\cap D)\\\Longrightarrow P(S\cap D)=P(S)+P(D)-P(S\cup D)\\\Longrightarrow P(S\cap D)=0.42+0.25-0.53\\\therefore P(S\cap D)=0.14=\frac{14}{100}[/tex]
