In a certain town there were 332 robberies last year. This year the number of robberies has gone down 14%. How many robberies were there this year, to the nearest whole number?

The factors of given expression are: -5 and 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

[tex]4x^2+17x-15[/tex]

Making pairs for the mid-term 17x by factoring the product of co-efficient of 4x^2 and 15

[tex]4x^2+20x-3x-15[/tex]

[tex]= 4x(x+5) - 3(x+5)[/tex]

[tex]=(4x-3)(x+5)[/tex]

Now

[tex]4x-3 = 0\\4x = 3\\x = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x+5 = 0\\x = -5[/tex]

Hence,

The factors of given expression are: -5 and 3/4

Answer:

So she need [tex]\frac{5}{36}\ cups[/tex] more to put in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Recipe for cookies calls for 3 1/4 cups of sugar.

Amy has already put three and one nine cups.

Now, to find the number of cups she need to put in.

Number of cups of sugar for recipe calls = [tex]3\frac{1}{4} =\frac{13}{4}\ cups.[/tex]

Amy has already put = [tex]3\frac{1}{9} =\frac{28}{9}\ cups.[/tex]

So, to get the number of cups she need to put in we subtract number of cups of sugar for recipe calls from number of cups of sugar for recipe calls:

[tex]\frac{13}{4} -\frac{28}{9}[/tex]

Subtracting by taking the same denominator:

[tex]=\frac{117-112}{36}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{5}{36}[/tex]

Therefore, so she need [tex]\frac{5}{36}\ cups[/tex] more to put in.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

Given that f(x) = 4x-2.

To find the inverse function:

1) Write f(x) = y

2) Switch x and y.

3) Solve for y.

4) Write [tex]y=f^{-1}\left(x\right)[/tex].

So,

[tex]f(x) = 4x - 2\\y=4x-2\\x=4y-2\\4y=x+2\\y=\frac{\left(x+2\right)}{4}\\y=\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{2}{4}\\y=\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}\\f^{-1}\left(x\right)=\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

53/50

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of males to females is 53:50.

A ratio is a comparison between two amounts that is calculated by dividing one amount by the other. The quotient a/b is referred to as the ratio between a and b if a and b are two values of the same kind and with the same units, such that b is not equal to 0. Ratios are represented by the colon symbol (:). As a result, the ratio a/b has no units and is represented by the notation a: b.

Given:

Number of baby boys = 106

Number of baby girls = 100

So, the ratio of males to females

= 106/100

= 53/50

Hence, the ratio of males to females is 53:50.

Answer:

The percent (relative) change is 7.14 percent (%).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the original support value is at 42%.

Then the support increased by 3%, to reach 45%.

We want the Percentage Change (i.e. relative) change of this increase, which can be computed as:

[tex]\frac{X_{F}-X_{O}}{X_{O}}*100[/tex]

where [tex]X_{F}[/tex] is the final value reached

           [tex]X_{O}[/tex] is the original value

So plugging in our known values and computing we have:

[tex]\frac{45-42}{42}*100= \frac{3}{42}*100 = 0.071428*100=7.14[/tex] percent increase.

Now lets go back and check if we are correct.

[tex]42+42\frac{7.14}{100}=42+2.9988=42+3=45[/tex]

The solution of given inequality is: [tex]x>-3[/tex]

Solution:

Divide both sides of inequality by 7

[tex]\frac{7\left(x+1\right)}{7}>\frac{-14}{7}\\[/tex]

Simplify the above expression

The complete question is:

A geometric sequence is defined recursively by

    [tex]a_{(1)}=40\text{ and }a_n=(-1/2)a_{(n-1)}[/tex]

(a) Write out the first four terms of this sequence.

(b) Is the 9th term of this sequence larger or smaller than 1/10? Show the calculation that you use to determine your answer.

Answer:

Explanation:

You are given the first term,    [tex]a_(1)=40[/tex] , and the recursive formula

   [tex]a_{(n)}=(-1/2)a_{(n-1}[/tex]

Thus, you can find the sequence of terms by multiplying each term by the constant ratio, (-1/2).

(a) First four terms of the sequence

[tex]a_{(1)}=40\\ \\ a_{(2)}=40\times (-1/2)=-20\\ \\ a_{(3)}=-20\times (-1/2)=10\\\\ a_{(4)}=10\times (-1/2)=-5[/tex]

Those are the first four terms.

(b) 9th term

You can write the explicit formula of the sequence as:

[tex]a_{(n)}=a_{(1)}\times r^{(n-1)}\\ \\ a_{(n)}=40(-1/2)^{(n-1)}[/tex]

Thus, for the 9th term, n = 9, and the term is:

[tex]a_{(9)}=40\times (-1/2)^{(9-1)}\\ \\ a_{(9)}=40\times(-1/2)^8\\ \\ a_{(9)}=40\times(1/256)=0.1526[/tex]

Since 1/10 = 0.1, and 0.1 < 0.1526, the 9th term is larger than 1/10.

Since you know the value of n = 3, plug in 3 for n in the equation

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems like these are aided immensely by your knowledge of multiplication tables.

1) 36 = 1·36 = 2·18 = 3·12 = 4·9 = 6·6

  27 = 1·27 = 3·9

The greatest common factor is 9, so the sum can be written as 9(4+3).

__

2) 45 = 1·45 = 3·15 = 5·9

  25 = 1·25 = 5·5

The greatest common factor is 5, so the sum can be written as 5(9+5).

__

3) 16 = 1·16 = 2·8 = 4·4

  72 = 1·72 = 2·36 = 3·24 = 4·18 = 6·12 = 8·9

The greatest common factor is 8, so the sum can be written as 8(2+9).

Answer:

pie is equal to the square root of A divided by r

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the equation first...a=pie times r squared. Then u need to get rid of everything to make pie by itself. U square both sides or all the equation. the square cancels out and on the other side, it will be the square root of a. Next, divide by r on each sides. The r cancels out. Then it's gonna be pie =the square root of a all over r. It can't be a/r square because in the original...pie is being multiplied by r which is squared so that means both variables are squared. U cant find pie if the square is stopping it so u square for the very first step

Calculating the least common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 5 to determine that 6 students will receive both a medal and a ribbon at a swim meet of 100 students.

Explanation:

To find the number of students at the swim meet who will receive both a medal and a ribbon, we need to look for the common multiples of 3 and 5, as medals are given to every 3rd finisher and ribbons to every 5th finisher. The least common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 5 is 15, which means every 15th student will receive both a medal and a ribbon. Since there are 100 students, we simply divide 100 by 15 and then take the integer part of the result, because we can't have a fraction of a person.

100 ÷ 15 equals approximately 6.66. The integer part is 6, which means 6 students will receive both a medal and a ribbon.
